Long Shiyan lost, and Zi Linglong sunk into a desperate situation, so the school immediately took action. Several magicians entered the enchantment and used countless restriction magic spells on Long Aotian and Long He, however, it was ineffective on them. The members of the school understood that they just needed to allow Zi Linglong the opportunity to escape.

However, Zi Linglong’s head was still lowered. Soon, she raised her head and laughed maniacally, like a lunatic. Moreover, the brighter that the scarlet star in the sky became, the stranger she became.

Soon, the entire sky was painted in red, and a huge red star was clearly displayed in front of everyone on the Fengling Continent. The star was completely red, just like a red giant. Although the star was still at a great distance from their continent, it had many red chains shackling it, which appeared extremely peculiar.

(TLN: In case you don’t remember your astronomy, red giants are big red stars in the last stages of stellar evolution.)

Everyone was shocked by this phenomenon.

With how the sky changed, no one knew what would happen. Feelings of panic, nervousness, etc. spread within people’s hearts.

Was this the end of the world?

The red star suddenly lowered along with its light but was quickly subdued by an enormous hand. Unfortunately, the red light completely shattered the enormous hand and continued to drop. Then, the star’s light completely enveloped Zi Linglong.

Long He was puzzled as he glanced at Long Aotian. As Long Aotian’s mind became clearer, a shocked expression spread across his face. He slowly turned towards the blackened Zi Linglong.

“Die! All of you should die!”

Zi Linglong opened her bloody eyes and glared at Long Aotian icily. Then, she slowly walked toward them. “You will pay for your actions!!”

Several of the teachers who watched the battle outside were astonished and could not comprehend Zi Linglong’s current form. The members of the Student Holy Spirit Group were also shocked. Zi Linglong was currently in her berserk state, yet she could still talk. This was something that had never happened before.

Today, they hoped that Zi Linglong could defeat Long Aotian and then rescue their leader. Yes, Long Shiyan was still in the middle of the stage. Furthermore, she was still breathing.

They originally wanted to go down and try to see if they could save the hope of their school, but Zi Linglong’s sudden berserk state also gave them hope.

Right now, Zi Linglong’s grandeur was no worse than Long Shiyan’s, no! It was even stronger than hers.

A little girl holding a butterfly net suddenly fell into the crowd as she watched the scene with a serious expression. She wanted to save Long Shiyan, but she didn’t dare approach the current Zi Linglong. It wasn’t only her, but everyone else retreated under Zi Linglong’s formidable might.

She could only hope that Zi Linglong could maintain her rationality long enough to save Long Shiyan!

In the lonely darkness, she only had a sole light that wiped the dark away. This light gave her the warmth that she had never had before, allowing her to experience love within this world. Allowing her to become “human” and to live a proper life.

But now, that light was taken away.

She alone would destroy them all.

Zi Linglong slowly walked towards Long Aotian and Long He. When Long He saw, he swung his tail at her. However, Zi Linglong unexpectedly caught his tail.

Yes, she actually caught Long He’s blow with her bare hands.

“Get lost!”

Zi Linglong hauled the oversized tail as she swung the dragon by his tail and slammed him onto the ground. Her gaze moved towards where Long He’s claws were originally at. There, she noticed that Long Shiyan was completely buried.

Long Aotian suddenly advanced towards her, but she grabbed his neck and twisted it. Then, she pounded him into the ground. Just as how he did to Long Shiyan, she sat down on top of him and madly beat him to a pulp.

Her output was much more terrifying than Long Shiyan’s.

Long He stood up and sent out a few heavenly lightning bolts. But Zi Linglong ignored the minor damage that those lightning bolts caused and continued to viciously beat Long Aotian up. It was evident that she wouldn’t let go of him until he died.

“Roar!”

Long He roared in fury and then ruthlessly slammed his tail at her.

Zi Linglong was finally blown away by him, but she did not suffer any damage at all. Instead, she climbed up his body and punched his face.

From the blow, Long He entered a spell of dizziness.

As if she were impervious to sword or spear, Zi Linglong violently attacked, knocking Long He into the enchantment. Long He’s scales scattered as blood burst out. Then, he laid on the ground at his last gasp. And Long Aotian was nearly in the same state as he laid down unconsciously.

(TLN: Idiom “impervious to sword or spear” means that she is invulnerable.) 

Zi Linglong took care of these two terrible monsters single-handedly.

However, just when everyone cheered, the skies changed once again. Several white chains suddenly appeared, shackling onto the red star tightly.

When the white chains made contact with the red giant star, it was also dyed in red. However, the red sky gradually began to clear up. The little girl who held a butterfly net witnessed this situation. She flew past the enchantment and then entered the pit within the ground.

“Roar!” “Roar!” “Roar!”

The moment they thought that the battle had ended, the roars of countless dragons echoed throughout the area.

Zi Linglong did not undo her berserk mode even though the red star had disappeared. She did not have any awareness of this fact at all. She did not even know that her power had dropped.

All she knew was that there were a lot of monsters like Long He. Since they made the same sounds as Long He, she didn’t say anything before she charged head-on and struck them.

There were around fifty or sixty of these dragons. Moreover, among them were Saint-level dragons even though the human Saints had long disappeared.

Was Dragon Island attacking the Holy Spirit Magic School?

Everyone was shocked by what they were seeing. In front of these enormous monsters, they had no power left to resist. Crackle! Rattle! The dragons burned thousands of the school’s buildings down. Everyone ran away and took refuge.

The ninth-level Long He and Long Aotian were already terrifying. But now there were dozens of dragons, and some were bonafide Saint-level dragons. They didn’t dare to resist.

Escaping was their best and only choice.

“Hahaha, your Holy Spirit Magic School will get what it deserves today!” A burst of hearty laughter echoed within the skies. “My dragon kinsmen have been humiliated for many years. We can finally exact revenge for our previous defeat! My children, kill them all! Burn them to ash! Don’t even leave a single one alive.”

However, while it was laughing, a figure suddenly flew up, grabbed its tail, and pulled it down onto the ground. She did not care that it was the Dragon King of Dragon Island. She swung her black-colored fists at the dragon and pummeled it. As the Dragon King became dizzy and light-headed, its scales were shattered.

She grabbed the dragon by its horn and then directly twisted the dragon’s horn off.

A miserable cry spread throughout the school, and all of the dragons noticed that their king was being killed by a “monster.”

Yes, that “monster” was torturing their king whilst it was still alive.

This was absolutely frightening. The dragons had to set aside what they were doing and come to help. But by the time they arrived, the Dragon King had been completely beaten to a pulp by her as it was at its last gasp.

The dragons were infuriated as they launched their fiery breath at her.

But their attacks were ineffective. She climbed up the nearest dragon and ruthlessly beat it up. Because the dragons were far bigger than a single human, there was no way to help each other. Soon, several dragons were forced to helplessly transform into their human forms to lend a hand, but they were all defeated by her.

It could be said that even if her strength was constantly weakening, she could still oppress the dragons.

As she involuntary pinned the enemies down, she had also made everyone relieved. It could be said that the moment the dragons wreaked havoc, it would signal the end of the world. Many people had lost their lives. If it were not for the fact that many students had been evacuated at the beginning of the fight, they would have most likely died here.

However, her strength was constantly weakening, and it was getting difficult to hit dragons to the point that it would hurt them. However, the dragons’ psychological traumas were incapable of being reduced as they all stared at her in horror.

The dying Dragon King turned into a humanoid form. He was then supported by two dragon uncles as they tried to flee.

Suddenly, a handsome man riding a dragon flew over. This man had a tough and stocky build along with long, purple hair. When he saw them, he said something astonishing.

“What are you afraid of?!” The man sneered and added, “Don’t you see that the ‘monster’ that has been beating you all up is getting weaker?” Indeed, you all are a group of brainless creatures.

He did not say the last sentence.

The weak Dragon King’s gaze focused on him as he asked, “Who are you?”

“Me?” The man suddenly sneered at him. “My name is Ling Feng, but from now on, I am the new Long Aotian. You can consider me as a part of your alliance.” He swept his eyes across the ground and noticed a half-dead Long Aotian. He abruptly flew down, grabbed him by his hair, and pulled him up.

“Tch, tch, tch, what a pathetic fellow! You were targeted at birth. How unfortunate.” The man snorted and then suddenly knocked onto Long Aotian’s forehead with his own.

From this unexpected headbutt, Long Aotian woke up. However, he was so weak that he was unable to struggle away.

“Rubbish!” The man sneered grimly. “Now, you have to listen to me. Today, you will be removed. From now on, you are my dog, okay?”

“You—What are you up to?” Although Long Aotian was extremely weakened, he still asked this question.

“Originally, I wanted to kill you to save myself from some trouble, but even if I don’t snatch your soul away, you would still die. Therefore, you are going to go on a trip with me!” he said, holding onto the struggling Long Aotian. Then, he took a bead out, which collected the seemingly dying Long Aotian and Long He.

Then, he departed, standing on top of his enormous, blue-colored dragon’s head.

On the other side, Zi Linglong on the brink of death. Apparently, she had returned to her original strength. She was being flattened by a dragon, but her defenses were much stronger than usual, and her consciousness was slowly recovering.

She remembered what she had done and understood that she had already lost her overwhelming strength.

The dragons also knew that this person used some kind of cheat-like secret skills to enhance her strength. But now, she had returned to normal. Because of this, they could exact their revenge with no issues at all.

Dragons were very vengeful creatures!

Just when Zi Linglong had no way to resist their assault, a spell suddenly appeared under her feet, which relocated her. Then, she was caught by several happy students as they stealthily fled.

But dragons were not creatures that were so easy to fool as a few dragons immediately spewed out their fiery breaths. However, she was already taken away before their breaths reached her.

The dragons were indignant. The “monster” that injured them was rescued by those puny humans. Hateful! Hateful! Hateful! They would proceed with tormenting and annihilating this simple and unadorned school.

“Rumble!”

Suddenly, the earth shook, and white light shot towards the sky. At the same time, countless symbols and elements congregated together, and the dragons within several hundreds of meters of the light trembled.

This was the law of heaven and earth.

It was a symbol that someone was being promoted to the level of God. However, considering the type of elemental symbols rushing forth, it should not be the promotion to God-level but breaking into a Saint realm. In spite of that, it contained the law of heaven and earth that could only be controlled by those of the God-level.

“Rumble!”

The white light faded, and a small figure appeared within the skies.

It was Long Shiyan!

“It’s the head of the group!”

“She’s still alive! She broke through into the Saint-level realm!”

Those members of the Student Holy Spirit Group, who were discreetly searching for scattered students outside, saw that Long Shiyan broke through into the Saint-level. Their faces that were originally filled with despair were instead covered with tears.

Long Shiyan opened her eyes and witnessed the broken school and dozens of gigantic figures. She heard the shouts of the students as they died in helplessness and pain.

She knew what was going on in Zi Linglong’s mind and her prior actions. Furthermore, she became aware of a lot of things.

“Hehe, your dragon race indeed picked a quarrel with the wrong people!” She sneered, “Don’t think because you are a dragon that I will be afraid of you. I’m prepared to give you all a big present!”

She tossed a piece of jade and chanted in a low voice, “Oh, Great God of Radiance! Please hear my calls and come to this world to punish the filth of the world! Contract! Summon!”

This meant that she accepted the Flower God’s inheritance. This ability was given to her by the Flower God; it could be used to summon the Radiant God’s angels to assist her in combat.

However, this ability was useless against Long Aotian.

According to the plot in the original book, the Radiant God could not kill Long Aotian. As the system, Qian Qian, stated, the Radiant God could only helplessly wait for Long Aotian to kill him.
