Book 2: Chapter 87: After beating the disciple, out jumps the master
“Crack...crack...”
Ear-piercing bone-cracking sounds rang out in my ears, while the intense pain coming from my muscles and tendons left me gasping for air. However, I still felt my body being filled with power. In fact, I could even take out something from my Storage Ring despite continuously trembling under the powerful pressure from the old man’s domain.
“What are you planning on doing?” as expected of a crafty old fox seated with high status, remaining vigilant despite facing a little girl who was far, far weaker than him. Even a slight movement from me had greatly increased his vigilance. If he felt that I could pull out something that could pose a threat to him, he would kill me without an ounce of hesitation.
“Nothing. I’m just...thinking of pulling out a pair of spectacles...”
“Spectacles?”
“That’s right...the fireworks that are about to happen might be quite dazzling, therefore...it’s best to wear sunglasses...” struggling about, I took out the pair of sunglasses that I’ve crafted from obsidian during my spare time from my storage ring. Placing them over my eyes, my view of my surroundings instantly turned dark. Despite the surrounding candle lights, it was extremely hard to make out one’s surroundings. Nevertheless, the surroundings are about to change, as brilliant fireworks amply capable of blinding people’s eyes would appear any moment right now.
“Ah...that’s right. Sae...do you want a pair?”
“No...I don’t need it...” Sae vomited another pile of liquid and organ parts out, before struggling to reply, “This body...is already blind...”
“Then you...really are unlucky...”
“Hehe...I’m really quite unlucky...”
“What the hell are you talking about!?” Not understanding what we were talking about seemed to have made the old man extremely frustrated, causing him to knock his staff fiercely on the ground, increasing the pressure bearing down on us.
“Stop...stop being impatient, okay...” with much difficulty, I propped up the sunglasses on my face, “You...will know...soon enough...”
It’s here!
Just as my words rang out, a soft, yet sharp whoosh rang out from the direction of the auction house, followed by intense quaking. Seemingly sensing that something was amiss, a frown appeared on the old man’s face as he turned around... what he saw...
Was an incomparably brilliant radiance that turned the night sky into day. An earth-shattering mushroom cloud rose into the sky, while the terrifying shockwave, intense quaking, and deafening noise swept over us.
“Really...what a beautiful scene.”Yôur favorite stories on n/o/(v)e/lbin(.)com
“Wuhuhu!! Don’t come over! I have to tell you, that my father’s very powerful! If you dare to touch a single hair on my body, no one would be able to save you!”
“Haha! Then you should call him over! Since you dare to destroy my auction house, no one will be able to save you! Die!”
“AHHH!!!!”
“Wait a second!”
“Hey! What’s the matter with you, little brat?”
After my sudden loud shout, Wilkis and Hadecaien turned their gaze towards me, “Don’t be impatient. Your time will come. In any case, the auction house is already destroyed, so there’s nothing stopping me from killing you all.”
“I was hoping you’d allow me to say something.”
“Huh? What were you going to say? Could it be that you’re going to beg us to let her go? I can tell you, that even if you kneel down on the spot, I will absolutely not let her go.”
“That’s not what I want to say.” calming my mind, I took a deep breath, before voicing one word at a time: “What I wish to say is, go ahead and do it. As long as you two touch a single hair on her body, I’ll destroy your entire clan and 18 generations!”
“That the style of our family that had been passed down by our ancestors, we always keep our promises.” For some unknown reason, I was all too clear about how little hope I had left. Nevertheless, I could not help but say those words. Perhaps it’s just that they sounded so graceful...
“...Hahahaha!!” Hadecaien burst out with rampant laughter: “I really want to see how you go about wiping out my entire family. Wilkis, do it!”
“Yes!”
A sharp sound of a weapon slicing through air rang out from my back, with Carol fated to end up dead. At this moment, the only thing this helpless me could do was to apologize to Carol, and make a pledge to take revenge for her.
However, right at this moment, a deep voice of an unknown man suddenly rang out: “I wonder... what has your humble servant’s daughter done to deserve paying the price with her head?”
As that voice was picked up, a smell of Dragon Blood so thick it pierced my nose appeared. However, this Dragon Blood smell was different from those that radiated from the Purebloods that I was familiar with. On the contrary, it was just like the feeling one would get when one dropped a little bit of clear water into a pot of boiling oil, motley yet explosive, and suffocating. Furthermore, this powerful aura was something that was released subconsciously, something that I’ve only felt from those Dragons that have reached the peak of their maturity.
This person is a mixed-blood...whose ability to use dragon blood is in no wayabsolutely not inferior to that of genuine Dragons. Furthermore, the realm of his strength is absolutely at...
Peak Saint Realm!
