Both Fang Xing and the golden crow dashed forward with a loud shout and became two strands of light. The golden crow used the same trick as before by hardening his body while moving to headbutt whatever was in front of him, while Fang Xing formed hand seals with Yin in his left hand and Yang in his right hand. He sliced the air with profound movements and activated his apex skillâthe Yin-Yang Sanding Discâbefore pushing it forward with great power.
âHow dare they try to force their way out? Seize them all!â the soldier riding atop the Dragon Horse commanded while brandishing a giant blade. In moments, a countless number of sea beasts within the walls of water all activated their spells and weapons, forming an inescapable net that extended towards for the trio.
It was at this time that Fang Xingâs Yin-Yang Sanding Disc reached the sky.
One Yin, one Yang, two forces rotated above like a giant fan, hanging in the vast sky as a grindstone that would crush everything. As the grindstone slowly moved, a great suction power formed and all the weapons and spellsâeven the large blade in the hands of the leading soldierâwere forcibly sucked into the Yin-Yang Sanding Disc. Everything was ground up into shards of pure light amidst the rotations, right before the grindstone reversed and the light was flung away in all directions.
A seemingly heavenly light fell from above and covered a large area. The sea wall was so tall it nearly reached the clouds, yet it actually faltered and fell beneath the power of these innumerable lights. The area rumbled, and the number of sea beast soldiers who were wounded or killed couldnât even be counted. Even the dozen-foot-tall wall of water was dispersed in all directions.
For this wall with iron-like defense to be completely demolished by a single apex skill, its power was indescribable.
Even Fang Xing was a little surprised; he looked at his hands while muttering to himself,âSh*t, how did the power increase again?â
âDammit, what kind of good stuff did you get again, you little bastard?â the golden crow shouted with excited eyes.
Fang Xing sighed. âGood stuff my *ss. Your little grandpa here was badly disadvantagedâŠ.â With that, he stopped his banter with the golden crow and fled.
When Fang Xing and the golden crow rushed out of the Colored Glass Palace in a panic, it had confused all of the cultivators inside. The Island Master of Gold Sea Turtle Island whoâd been turned into something like a servant gradually returned to his senses as well once the lotus girl had left, and the more he remembered everything heâd done, the more shocked he became. Filled with suspicion, he rushed out of the Colored Glass Palace alongside the other cultivators in order to stop the trio.
Just as the cultivators rushed out of the palace, however, they happened to see Fang Xing destroying the palaceâs defenses with a single apex skill. A chill ran down their spine and they were so stunned and awed by this technique that no one spoke for a long time afterward.
âThat person should only be in Foundation Stage, right? How⊠how can he be⊠how can he be so strong?â
Some were completely shocked and stuttered while looking at the heavily-wounded army of the Colored Glass Palace. They didnât believe this had been done by a Foundation Stage cultivator.
âThe reversal of Yin and Yang, grinding away the vast sky⊠this person⊠who exactly is he?â
The shock the cultivators felt couldnât even be described, yet before their surprise had faded, they suddenly heard a crisp voice from the depths of the Colored Glass Palace. An extremely powerful aura revealed itself and suppressed the entire area at the same time, and everyone felt a sense of terror as a giant rumbling noise occurred. A hole formed in the Colored Glass Palace and a woman wearing a white dress with undone hair and bare feet stood in mid-air.
âBastard! Now that youâve ruined my great plan, Iâm going to take your lifeâŠ.â After her furious roar, the woman rushed forward and became a stream of light, causing her long dress to be pulled completely straight.
The trio had managed to get only a hundred miles away, and they shivered in fear when they saw the dragon girl start to give chase. âUh oh, sheâs chasing after us. Hurry and runâŠ.â
âStop right now, little livestock! I vow I will kill you!â the dragon girl roared with intense hatred while slowly catching up, and the murderous intent surrounding her was particularly terrifying.
In his terror, Fang Xing flinched and shouted back, âI really didnât intend that at all! I only wanted to steal some treasuresâŠ.â
âYou dare to even say it! The dragon girl was utterly enraged, and she increased her speed to chase after them like a bolt of lightning.
The Dragon clan had always been good with flying, and with her golden core cultivation, she was able to ride atop twin bolts of lightning that streaked across the sky. She was incredibly fast, but the golden crowâs speed also wasnât bad at, allowing the trio to get nearly a hundred-mile advantage due to their head start. The dragon girl was unable to catch up to them so quickly, but they couldnât get rid of her either.
One fleeing, one chasing, no one knew how far theyâd actually traveled. Fang Xing sat on the back of the golden crow, and the more he thought about it, the stranger he felt. âThatâs impossibleâŠâ he repeatedly muttered to himself.
The lotus girl still hadnât finished the lobster sheâd taken with her, but she looked over to Fang Xing and curiously asked, âWhatâs impossible?â
âHow can that dragon girl be⊠no, why am I telling you about this? Donât interrupt me!â
The lotus girl sniffed her nose before she giggled and simply returned her attention to the remaining parts of the lobster.
Fang Xing pondered this for a while before he suddenly remembered someone. He pulled out the sea-snake beast from his storage sack before pushing some Qi into her to resolve the remaining power of the Hibernation Pellet. The sea-snake beast had been forcibly fed the Hibernation Pellet earlier and didnât know what had happened since, yet before she was able to check the surroundings, she saw Fang Xing creasing his brows as he asked, âLittle fairy, you tell me the truth. What exactly is going on with your eldest princess?â
The sea-snake beast immediately started into vicious threats, âHow can our princess like someone with your looks? Itâs only natural I would do it on her behalfâŠ. Where is this place? How dare you capture me! Hurry and let me go, or elseâŠ.â
A crystal Flying Sword was placed against her neck and Fang Xingâs murderous intent rose. âIf you continue talking sh*it, Iâll f*cking eat you!â
The sea-snake beast flinched. After calming down a bit, she coldly replied, âThere is no need for you to get angry, though, what Iâve said is all true. Our eldest princess has very high tastes; unless youâre an elite from a large area or a handsome charismatic genius, how could you be good enough for her? For a littleâ for an ordinary person like you, of course she wouldnât be interested, hence it would always be me and my sisters whoâd come in her place. It is because she doesnât want to hurt you all, hence why she had all of us take on her appearance. It would be fine if they donât find out, but if they do, heheâŠ.â
Fang Xingâs brows were still tightly creased. He didnât respond, but the Flying Sword suddenly slipped a few inches forward and blood immediately began flowing from her neck.
The sea-snake beast trembled in fear and hastily shouted, âIâve⊠Iâve said only the truthâŠ.â
âThen based on your words, there are some people she does it with?â
âThat is naturally the case!â the sea-snake beast quickly added.
Fang Xingâs gaze grew colder. âThen explain it to me. Someone who has slept with a countless number of men, how can she beâŠâ as he spoke, he suddenly looked at the lotus girlâwho was staring at himâand the golden crowâwhoâd been listening in on the conversation with a tilted headâand was unable to continue speaking. He stared at them for some time before he finished the rest of his sentence with a message to the sea-snake beast, â⊠how can she be of a pure Yin body?â
âHow did you know?â the sea-snake beast shouted in shock.
Fang Xing didnât know how to explain. After a long moment of silence, he took out a burnt piece of wood and placed it in front of her. âI originally thought she used this burnt wood to study some kind of technique or spell. Thinking about it now, she used it to suppress her evil thoughts, right?â
After seeing the Fusang Wood, how could the sea-snake beast not know what must have occurred? She knew that every time this year, the thunder-struck Fusang Wood and her master would not be separated, as her master relied on it to freeze herself and suppress the instinctive temperament of the dragons, similar to how one might use the Icy Heart technique of the Dragon clan.
In fact, it was possible she was perhaps trying to convey something to Yuan Bizhan when she revealed this wood at the Red Convention, but Yuan Bizhan had already formed his own ideas about her and hadnât really paid close attention to her true intentions, hence the dragon girl had completely refused him. Otherwise, even though Yuan Bizhan might not have been a great person, he had the background of the Yuan clan and the dragon girl might truly have married down to him.
As the dragon girlâs closest maid, the sea-snake beast was very clear on the kind of thoughts her master had. âWhat did you do exactly?â Shejiâs voice trembled and her gaze flickered as though she was realizing something terrifying. âThe Fusang Wood⊠why do you have it?â
âI⊠bedded herâŠ.â After a long time of silence, he paused again before continuing to message over to her, âOf course, it could be said it was her who bedded me!â
âYouâŠ!â The sea-snake beastâs eyes immediately turned blood-red and she rushed at Fang Xing without a care for her life. Her head instantly turned into that of a snakeâs with a wide mouth and sharp fangs as she lunged towards Fang Xingâs neck.
Of course, Fang Xing wouldnât be hurt by her at his current level of cultivation. He reached out with his hand and grasped tightly onto her neck like a pair of steel pliers, forcing her to return to her human form. The sea-snake beast was still unwilling to give up despite the clear difference in battle prowess, however, and she grabbed at Fang Xing with all her might. Her voice had already become a mournful cry as she shouted, âYouâre such a disgusting bastard! Do you even know what youâve done? Do you know what sort of harm youâve now caused the princess?â
