“Yes, my lord.”
Sonia replied with a lowered head. For her, this was an opportunity.
Originally, she thought that she could gain Ji Chen’s attention with rhe power of the Coral Palace, but after witnessing the terrifying strength of rhe Ocean Crown Army, she realized that the Coral Palace’s forces were insignificant.
At most, they could serve as cannon fodder or a suicide squad.
In the ruthless Great Luminescent Sea, only the sea clans with value would be respected.
Therefore, she had to use this opportunity to showcase her worth, so that the Coral Palace could receive better treatment from the Ocean Crown after surrendering.
Sonia quickly stepped forward, confronting Diago.
In a deep voice, she said, “Surrender, and Lord Ji Chen will forgive you,”
Diago chuckled and looked at her with a mocking rone.
“The Coral Palace, which has ruled for thousands of years, has surrendered to an outsider in just a few days. How laughable.
It seems like you’re reminiscing about the days when humans used to ride on your neck. It’s truly the shame of the sea clans in the Great Luminescent Sea.”
Sonia’s face remained emotionless, and she naturally ignored these words, which were clearly meant to provoke her.
“Lord Ji Chen will lead the Coral Palace and the sea clans of rhe Great Luminescent Sea our into the outside world. It’s more dangerous, but it’s also much broader. That’s why I’m willing to dedicate my strength to him.”
“The outside world?” Diago furrowed his brow deeply.
It was precisely because he knew about the dangers of the outside world that he had immediately sent troops to stop outsiders from entering as soon as he discovered the opened portal, and he had kept it closed until now.
The Dragon King s City could dominate rhe Great Luminescent Sea, bur in the outside world, they would be easy prey. He preferred to rule and dominate in this small corner of the Great Luminescent Sea rather than becoming a weak presence in the outside world.
But as he looked into Sonia’s eyes, shining with determination and hope for the future, Diago felt a sharp pain in his heart, and a surge of anger rose within him.
So, you want to take the Coral Palace to the outside world, huh?
7hen I will utterly destroy it, shatter your hope completely!
The twin horns emitted an unprecedented bright light, gathering a terrifying energy. A red lightning bolt formed above the space between the horns, gradually growing into a red lightning sphere, which continued to expand.
After a dozen seconds, the lightning sphere had grown to a diameter of two meters, containing extremely intense energy. It shone brightly in the deep water, resembling a small red sun.
Seeing this, the nearby Coral Palace and Dragon King’s City forces turned pale and scrambled to get as far away as possible.
A wicked smile appeared on Diago’s face.
“Die!”
The lightning sphere shot out as if released from an invisible bow, racing forward, leaving behind a trail of red lightning.
Sonia remained calm.
She raised her hand once again to create a white shield, catching the lightning sphere as if catching a falling stone. In a matter of moments, she dissipated it effortlessly, without a ripple.
Impossible!!!
Diago stared wide-eyed. This was one of his most powerful techniques, how could it be so easily dispelled?
Sonia looked at Diago, who appeared incredulous, and her tone carried a hint of admiration.
“The first-generation Water Dragon King also liked using this move. He thought it was both cool and straightforward.
However, the lightning sphere you conjured is too small. The first-generation Water Dragon King’s lightning sphere had a diameter of ten meters.”
Her tone of admiration, when seen by Diago, felt more like mockery, making him extremely angry.
He gritted his teeth.
“I hope when 1 have you crushed under my foot, you can still talk like this.”
The twin horns emitted another flash.
Dozens of red whirlpools suddenly appeared behind Diago. From them, hundreds of tiny lightning bolts shot out, raining down like drops of water.
Sonia effortlessly waved her hand, and an even larger white shield easily blocked all the lightning bolts.
This made Diago even more frantic, unleashing various skills and techniques.
But no matter how he tried, Sonia could effortlessly defend against everything.
At this point, the difference in their abilities was crystal clear.
Diago, who had only practiced for a few decades, was clearly no match for Sonia, who had been alive for thousands of years and had become a master of combat through experience and wisdom.
The former s attacks were either blocked by the latter’s shield or evaded effortlessly.
“How is this possible?! How is this possible?!
1 was supposed to be the destined ruler to unify the Great Luminescent Sea! You, an old relic who’s lived for thousands of years, should have died along with that old immortal!
I refuse to accept this!!”
Diago, looking like a madman, continued to use various skills, but without exception, they all dissipated like water into snow.
In this state, he exposed countless vulnerabilities.
Sonia’s patience was finally exhausted. She had initially hoped that Diago, as the descendant of the first-generation Water Dragon King, would realize the situation and willingly submit to Lord Ji Chen’s command, leaving a path for the fellow dragon king who also served humanity.
But now, it seemed that not only had he not inherited the power, but he had also inherited none of the virtues.
At this point, she no longer held back.
With a wave of her hand, she sent a water stream that knocked the unguarded Diago away, leaving him severely injured.
Just as she was about to deliver another blow, Ji Chen called her to a halt.
“Spare his life; 1 have plans for him.”
Sonia nodded and immediately withdrew.
However, she soon spotted a Dragon Horn Catfish, its eyes wide like copper bells. While being watched over by a dozen Tyrant Azure Dragons, he was fixated on the severely injured Diago, who was drifting in the water..
