Chapter 30

Ten minutes later.

The barrier around Xia Lihua silently dissipated, revealing her full figure. She slowly opened her eyes and scanned everyone in the room.

She looked at Ji Xian with a small smile, although she was cultivating, she was still aware of what was happening in her surroundings so she saw his mischievous behavior.

She glanced over at Lin Roulan and Guo Xinyi before her gaze met Xiao Yueyin.

The moment their eyes locked on to one another. An explosive phenomenon took place within their bodies.

Time and space at this moment seemed to have stopped. A competitive flame lit from deep within their souls, followed by an irresistible urge to prove superiority!

A world-destroying draconic roar erupted from their bodies. In the space above them, two colossal phantom dragons appeared that only the two of them can see.

Above Xia Lihua is a dragon with a long snake-like body. It has two horns on its head that resembled a crown. Twelve mysterious spheres spun behind its back, each one seemingly larger than a universe. The silver scales on its body spread a radiant light that touched every corner of the multiverse, bringing a mysterious warmth throughout the endless chaos. That light manipulated time itself, causing the reversal of life and death while infusing the past, present, and future into one timeline. Its existence brought havoc throughout the boundless worlds.

On the other side, above Xiao Yueyin is a dragon that looked opposite to Xia Lihua resembling more of a lizard. Its stout body has four long, powerful limbs with icy sharp claws that are capable of easily slicing through space. Protruding from its back are a pair of bat-like wings that seems large enough to shroud the heavens! The pitch-black scales on its body emitted an inescapable suction, drawing in all colors of cosmic life making everything meaningless. This devouring affected the infinite space, causing the rearrangement of stars and dimensional shifts of all realms!

The moment these two dragons met, they roared in defiance before charging forward!

Only one True Dragon can exist!

They collided and shattered into countless glass shards!

Xia Lihua's pupils shrank into a needle. Her blood boiled and a murderous thought threatened to overtake her mind. She can hear a calling from deep within her soul, trying its hardest to influence her.Updated from novelb(i)n.c(o)m

She frowned, using her unbreakable Will, she quickly and easily suppressed those feelings, not giving it a single chance to take control.

Meanwhile, Xiao Yueyin was also having the same experience, but unlike Xia Lihua, she couldn't stop the feeling from invading her mind so it consumed her! A defiant roar bellowed inside her soul.

Pitch-black scales grew from her skin covering every inch of her body. Her nails grew longer, resembling more like claws, while sharp spikes emerged from her arms and legs.

On her back, were two protrusions. It grew larger until finally, it ripped through her skin, spilling blood on the floor, revealing a pair of bat-like wings.

An incredible aura at the Eighth Life Destruction exploded from Xiao Yueyins body!

ROOOOAR!!

Xiao Yueyin loudly shrieked, only the whites of her eyes can be seen and it was clear she had lost control. She clenched her hand and shot forward, leaving behind a black streak.

Seeing the destructive fist heading towards her, Xia Lihua calmly reached out and easily caught her hand.

To lose yourself so easily, your will is weak. Are you even worthy of your bloodline?"

Xiao Yueyin angrily roared in response.

Shaking her head with disappointment, Xia Lihua said nothing more and sent out a kick at light speed toward her abdomen.

Xiao Yueyin was unable to react before she was sent flying, crashing into the wall. She coughed a mouth full of blood before fainting. The black scales on her body disappeared and her appearance returned to normal.

Oh? You can tell?

""

A while later, Xiao Yueyin, Guo Xinyi, and Lin Roulan woke up one by one.

Guo Xinyi looked at the others in confusion and felt something was wrong but wasnt entirely sure. How long was she meditating? Why did it feel so long?

Oh, look whos up.

The three turned to the voice and saw Ji Xian lazily sitting in his chair. Sitting beside him was Xia Lihua. Her head leaned to one side and was being supported by her right hand. She sat there with her legs crossed, seriously reading a book.

Guo Xinyi asked, What happened?

This lowly servant doesnt know what you mean. Did anything happen? Ji Xian gave a lazy response and didnt bother to come up with a reasonable explanation.

She looked at him with skepticism.

Xinyi, Can you give us some privacy. Xiao Yueyin suddenly said.

Guo Xinyi looked at her suspiciously but seeing that her friend didnt want to explain, she can only nod her head. She held Lin Roulans hand and walked out of the room. The little girl pouted, she gave Ji Xian and Xia Lihua one last look before obediently leaving. From beginning to end, she only remembered talking to Ji Xian before feeling tired and falling asleep. Nothing abnormal.

After they left, Xiao Yueyin took a deep breath to steady her emotions, Do you take me for a fool?

""

No one responded.

Her eyebrows pinched together. She stood in front of the duo and was hesitant to look at Xia Lihua. She was afraid, she didnt know if she would lose control again. After steadying her will and taking another deep breath, she looked at her.

Her heart skipped a beat and her blood boiled, She suddenly had an intense urge to fight!

Xiao Yueyins face reddened and her breathing became heavy. Her nails started to grow and patches of black scales began to slowly cover her skin.

Are you worthy of your bloodline?.

Suddenly, these words repeatedly resounded in her mind.

Xiao Yueyins face became ferocious! She tightly clenched her teeth which had turned into sharp fangs.

No! No! No! I am worthy!

I am worthy!

I am worthy!

Inside her mind, something cracked and shattered!

She suddenly felt like she had more control, immediately, she calmed her heart, her nails returned to normal and the black scales retracted. The intense urge from earlier also disappeared.

Authors Note: Not sure if I wrote it clearly enough, but Xia Lihua's dragon is more of an eastern style dragon while Xiao Yueyin's dragon is more of a western style.
