Chapter 212 - 212 What Is This Thing?!

212 What Is This Thing?!

Regardless of whether it was the beast horde or the flood dragon, it was not a good sign for the people of Changping.

The flood dragon’s huge body was hidden in the clouds, its head and tail almost invisible. Its huge dragon eyes stared at the people of Changping, giving off unparalleled pressure and coercion as if there was a heavy mountain on their shoulders.

“Are you sure you want to protect such a group of despicable humans?”

Ye Xuan didn’t agree with the dragon’s view.

“Even if you’re right, it’s still natural selection. It has always been the survival of the fittest. Humans are above demonic beasts because there is a large number of humans and are therefore the mainstream. You can also say that it’s an inevitable choice of history.”

“Besides, many humans have died at the hands of you demonic beasts. Why are you so aggressive? Furthermore, there are situations where you demonic beasts devour each other. Those weak demonic beasts will become food for high-level demonic beasts.”

Ye Xuan’s rebuttal was so reasonable that the dragon flew into a rage out of humiliation. “You’re making excuses! They are all just excuses. You humans are so sinister and cunning that you even disturbed Supreme Lord’s eternal rest.”

Unless it was absolutely necessary, Ye Xuan didn’t want to start a war with this dragon. After all, it was Changping who was in the wrong, and over-mining had indeed destroyed the living environment of these demonic beasts.

“It’s not easy for you to cultivate. You’re blessed by the heavens to have your current cultivation. You should put more effort into your cultivation.”

The flood dragon didn’t appreciate Ye Xuan’s earnest advice, and its eyes were extremely cold.

“I’ll only be able to cultivate in peace after your blood is spilled on this land.”

“Roar!”

Following the dragon’s roar, the sky changed color. Suddenly, a strong wind blew and the entire sky darkened. It looked like it was about to collapse. Large dark clouds loomed over Changping and a black shadow could be seen shuttling back and forth.

Since ancient times, the dragon clan had the ability to call the wind and summon the rain. The flood dragon had the blood of a dragon, so it was naturally not a problem.

There was nothing to say now, but Ye Xuan had just experienced a great battle, and now he was facing a flood dragon at its peak. The Penglai Immortal Beasts couldn’t make a move, so there was no chance of winning at all.

“I don’t know if Elder Ye can do it,” He Feng said worriedly.

Shen Changling had long been convinced by Ye Xuan’s abilities and had blind confidence in him. He assured He Feng, “Don’t worry. Elder Ye can even deal with a true dragon. Why would he be afraid of a mere flood dragon?”

Yi Chengrui and the others thought they were hallucinating. They couldn’t help but widen their eyes. Yi Chengrui asked, “What are you talking about?”

“It’s a long story. I’ll tell you after the crisis is resolved.”

To be honest, Ye Xuan didn’t have much confidence. He also knew the difficulties of the Penglai Immortal Beasts, so he didn’t force them to help.

He suddenly thought of the light that fell into the Hetu and Luoshu Diagram before the skeletal dragon disappeared. Since the flood dragon revered the skeletal dragon so much, it might have some effect.

“Foolish human, you will pay a painful price for your offense and greed.”

The dragon’s roar was deafening, like thunder from the Nine Heavens, exploding in everyone’s ears.

“Since you want to help them, then you will be buried together with this city.”

Looking at the dragon’s shadow in the sky getting closer and closer, Ye Xuan’s eyes were determined. There was no retreat or fear in his expression. Raindrops the size of beans fell.

The heavens and the earth dissipated in a thick black color. One after another, lightning tore the sky into countless pieces, just like a scene resembling the end of the world.

The rain on the ground instantly accumulated into a thick layer. The vast sky turned into a vast ocean, and Ye Xuan was like a small boat.

His palm emitted a white light as if a savior had arrived. Everyone felt an extremely warm feeling, and their eyes lit up with hope again.

The scroll that was filled with an ancient aura was faintly visible in the light. The slowly unfolding scroll seemed to contain every manifestation in the world, but it also covered all things.

However, due to the heavy rain and the distance, the others could not see it clearly. They could only feel that it was a supreme divine item, mysterious and extraordinary, flashing with an unfathomable color.

If it wasn’t for the heavy rain and the power of the dragon, Ye Xuan wouldn’t have dared to take out the Hetu and Luoshu Diagram. These things were too shocking. If the Hetu and Luoshu Diagram was recognized, it would definitely cause a lot of trouble.

However, he had no other choice in this emergency.

The flood dragon was already intimidated by the aura of the Hetu and Luoshu Diagram. Demonic beasts were more sensitive than humans and knew that this was a divine item.

Most importantly, it could sense a special aura from within!

A round thing floated above the scroll. It didn’t look eye-catching and was even gray, but it made the flood dragon’s eyes widen. Its expression was full of disbelief. The pressure from its bloodline made it unable to resist.

“How did you get this?!”

Ye Xuan saw that there was hope. This thing was indeed effective on dragons. Thus, he pretended to be mysterious and said, “Of course, it was given to me by that Supreme Lord.”

The flood dragon’s eyes almost fell out of their sockets when it heard this. It subconsciously retorted, “That is impossible! How could it fall into the hands of a lowly human like you?”

“Then you think I stole it? Or I snatched it?”

That was even more impossible.

Because of the restriction and formation, the flood dragon had never seen the true face of the Supreme Lord, but it knew that it was an ancient dragon.

When the skeletal dragon had awoken, the flood dragon had been affected the most. That was why it had commanded the demonic beasts to attack the humans.

Any dragon-like creature dreamed of becoming a true dragon, not to mention flood dragons that were similar in appearance to true dragons, which meant that their chances were higher.

On one hand, the flood dragon truly hated humans and respected the ancient dragon clan from the bottom of its heart.

On the other hand, it also had a little selfishness. If it made a great contribution and exterminated the humans in Changping, perhaps that Supreme Lord would give it some dragon blood or something, which could make its bloodline purer.
