Chapter 25: The Dragoness

--- Chapter 24 ---

Wind Blade Sect.

Yu Long lay on top of the pavilion, digesting the essence spheres of the Sect Leaders he killed a moment ago. Their memories flowed into his head, which is more disgusting than Zhu Clan's head.

Not many people know, but Zhu Clan's head is a disgusting pervert. Zhu Kong trafficked young maidens in the southern part of the Blue Wind Empire, locking them in the Zhu Clan's basement for months before giving them a scarce chance to live.

Although Yu Long has cleaned the mess by giving these broken maidens a new home to recover, the trauma won't disappear soon.

On the other hand, these two sect leaders are more disgusting as they actually caused famine and destroyed countless innocent villages.

And lastly, they also touched kids. They were the lowest humans can be.

Wind Blade Art (B) Acquired

Blade Wielding (C) Acquired

Cloud Palm Art (B) Acquired

Basics of Arrays (A) Acquired

'At least they give some useful skills.' Yu Long closed his eyes and digested the skills.

Yu Long created a blade with his bone and waved it according to the devoured memory. A sharp energy punctured the air and caused a tear over fifteen meters long.

He didn't stop there as he waved his palm away, creating an invisible wave of force. The terrifying force blew the air away.

The profound arts and skills are good, but Yu Long is more interested in the last ability.

Basic of Arrays!

It contained information about how to form formation through arrays, their usage, and applications. Although it wasn't extensive knowledge, Yu Long is confident in developing it.

In his past life, Yu Long had many skills.

Programming is one of them.

As long as Yu Long understood the Basics of Arrays, he could interpret them in his own coding language.

It would be time-consuming but worth it, nonetheless.

"Hmm, the Cloud Palm Sect should have the books about arrays since their sect leader learned it..." Yu Long decided to visit this sect later.

At the moment, Yu Long must catch a big fish with these new memories.

Yu Long went to the bird courier station.

This place is where specific breeds of pigeons are 'actually' trained to send messages, and any high-end factions have one or two stations.

One might wonder, how can the courier birds survive the wilderness?

The answer is there is a specific route they could use. They are also smart enough to evade dangers below the Spirit Profound Realm.

Using the handwriting of the Cloud Palm Sect's leader, Yu Long wrote a message about the success of the Yu Clan's conquest mission. Then, He added the fact they should discuss further plans.

After placing the letter in a container, Yu Long picked the highest quality courier bird and sent it to the Heavenly Spear Thunderfire Fortress.

The distance between Wind Blade Sect isn't far away. Yup, only a hundred thousand kilometers.

That's far in his previous life, but here?

The courier bird will arrive in a few hours straight.

"A few hours is enough to set up a trap." Yu Long said nonchalantly.

He went to the Wind Blade Sect's Library and checked their profound skills, only to be disappointed by techniques with no grace nor detail.

Any technique Yu Long made when he was eight is superior to these trashes.

"Knowledge is power..." Yu Long gritted his teeth and forced himself to read all the books. He finished everything in the library an hour later, thanks to [Thoughts Acceleration] and Yume's [Psychic Force].

Yu Long leaned on the bookshelves, "Phew, there are some good things in piles of trash."

"Unfortunately, it was 1 out of ten thousand."

Lily appeared from the shadows and used her handkerchief to wipe the sweat on Yu Long's forehead, "You shouldn't force yourself, young master."

"You should leave some burdens on us." She complained like usual.

"Burden, huh?" Yu Long smiled slightly.

"There is something you guys can help with."

"Say it, say it~!" Lily's eyes lit up immediately.

Yu Long pointed outside, "Can you bring me high-quality ink and brush?"

"Eh..." Lily thought the task would be dangerous or exciting.

Isn't this just her daily maid task?

Even then, Lily still followed Yu Long's order.

Not far away, under a willow tree, Hong Guan prepared herself for the big battle by meditating.

Yu Long's Profound Sense watched her from the library, feeling her profound strength was about to break through.

Hong Guan could enter the 1st Level of Sky Profound Realm anytime, but she restrained it. She wanted her cultivation base to have a strong foundation.

[Yin Dragon's Aspect] and [Gale Dragon's Aspect] have merged with Hong Guan's body after two months. It allows her physical and mental prowess to be four times stronger than anyone in the same cultivation.

...

Five hours later.

The sun has set.

Yu Long looked down at the Wind Blade Sect from the highest tree and nodded in satisfaction. He tried using 'Array's Language' for the first time and drew a dome-like formation around the Wind Blade Sect.

The Wind Blade Sect will be a battlefield for Hong Guan and the person who instigated a plan to destroy the Yu Clan.

"My Lord, there is a powerful presence from the west." Yume's voice echoed in Yu Long's head.

Yu Long blinked and used [Insect King's Vision], finding a tall elderly in a blue robe. He's skinny for a greedy person, with a wrinkled face, white beard, and mustache.

"Mu Lei." Yu Long mumbled solemnly.

Their target is the 6th Level of the Sky Profound Realm. And he was actually equipped with countless hidden weapons under that blue robe.

Yu Long bet those hidden weapons are all explosive, as expected from the sect full of suicidal maniacs.

With [Presence Erasure] and [Arts of Ghost], Yu Long went to a more suitable spot to watch the fight. He quickly landed on the roof of a grain warehouse and saw Hong Guan in maid clothes escorting the target.

...

Hong Guan Pov

Here it is!

I breathed in and smiled at my target, the Heavenly Spear Thunderfire Fortress's 4th Elder, Mu Lei.

I hate everything related to this sect, which means Mu Lei is 'directly' included.

...

Mu Lei Pov

"Haa... Haa..."

"That bitch, whore..."

I breathed heavily as Green Sun was a forbidden weapon made in the Thunderfire Branch. It was made with several Sky Profound Realm Materials, costing me life savings' price to have one.

However, that bitch.

"She was too powerful."

"At least she died..." I sighed in relief, feeling pain in my chest.

Looking down at my chest, I saw a burning hole that exposed my beating heart. I panicked and quickly ate a recovery pill suppressing the injuries.

"Fuck, I am almost die..." Thankfully, being the Sky Profound Realm Expert that I am, this injury isn't that bad.

Thud!

Thud!

The sound of steps entered my ears.

"Huh?"

"No fucking way..."

My breath became heavier as a figure slowly walked towards me.

Her body was charred like ash, releasing intense heat.

Her long, crimson hair flared like the sun's flares.

However, what makes me terrified is her eyes.

Those green eyes gained slit-like a dragon, shining with venomous gleam.

Move!

Move!

My legs stumbled all over the place.

Then, I realized my legs had melted!

"AAAAAAAAAAAAARGGGHHHHHHHH!"

The demoness approached me with the gaze of nothing but a wish to rip me apart.

After a few seconds, she stood before me. Her beautiful dragon-like face sends a chill down my spine.

If it was any other day, I'd have prostates and worshiped her beauty.

Nevertheless, I know.

Today is my end.

I forced my guts to move and opened my mouth, "W-Why did you hate me so much?"

"I believe we have never met before..."

"Your sect..." Her alluring but cold voice struck my soul.

"Your sect killed my brother."

My eyes shrank in realization.

I see, revenge.

The Heavenly Spear Thunderfire Fortress finally made an enemy they couldn't defend against. It seems the sect is 'eventually' destined to perish.

The woman didn't even move an inch, but everything within a meter radius melted into the dark liquid, including me.

My organ burst.

My bones turned into dust.

And my blood evaporated.

'We have created a monster...' I blankly thought before my gruesome and painful death.

...

Normal Pov

ROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOORR!!!

A roar of retribution reverberated all over the Wind Blade Sect.

Yu Long landed on the domain-like ability that Hong Guan released and stared at the transforming lady. She entered the 1st Level of Sky Profound Realm, even awakening her profound incarnation.

An ethereal, bipedal dragon surrounded Hong Guan, wrapping her like a guardian beast. It is over fifteen meters tall, with a slender, streamlined body covered by black-green scales and a pair of bat-like wings.

Black flames and hurricanes surrounded them.

Yu Long's eyes met with the dragon's, and the latter reacted hostilely.

Growling at Yu Long, the dragon would protect its host at all costs.

"Little dragon, you're too weak to handle me." He chuckled and walked toward Hong Guan, not caring about the dragon's hostility.

Yu Long stood before the now crimson-haired beauty.

"Sister Guan."

"Hong Guan?"

"Wake up." He caressed her face gently.

Hong Guan slowly opened her green eyes, staring at Yu Long with a sad expression. Tears are running from her eyes, evaporating upon leaving her fair cheeks.

Yu Long sighed and opened his arms, "Here."

"Aaah, I did it... Yu Long, I did it." Hong Guan cried in Yu Long's embrace, pouring out her emotional burden.

Yu Long patted her back, "Everything will be okay now."

"You have become strong too."

"I'm proud of you..."

"Really..." Hong Guan's voice was hoarse because of the excessive crying.

Yu Long smiled and answered truthfully, "Yes."

"Can we stay like this a little longer?" Hong Guan buried her face in the youth's chest, feeling very comfortable.

"Sure."

"Thank you..."
