Chapter 975 A Sky She Couldn't Reach

"Raaaah!" Drasenia roared loudly, she didn't stop struggling until her scale bled. However, the swords and spears piercing her large body down was too strong that she couldn't handle it.

So this is the disparity between me and Han Li, huh? She couldn't help but think. She thought that she was almost on par, if not on par, with Han Li. But to think that it's nothing but a mere wishful thinking.

Soon, all the lightning swords and spears had immobilized the huge dragon completely. Drasenia was helpless and in a despairing situation. Her life was at mercy on Jin Rou's hands. If he willed it, he could just kill her and get over with it.

Jin Rou looked at the dragon and said, "This is the difference between you and me in terms of power level."

It was a cruel reality for Drasenia. After all, who would want to accept that there's a human stronger than you? Their race was a divine race, to begin with. So their talents were immense unlike the humans with a random selection.

She climbed her way up to the highest peak of their race to let everyone acknowledge her power. But for what purpose? She looked at Jin Rou who was also looking at her and reflected on her life.

"I spared you once in the past, Drasenia." Jin Rou walked on the top the huge dragon's body whole talking, "And I only spare my enemies once. You cannot get another mercy the second time around."

"I will not beg for mercy, Han Li. Not even to you." Drasenia had lost, but it didn't mean that it was totally over. She was still thinking of how to escape here.

"If you're thinking of escaping here, let it go." Jin Rou could easily read her mind and said, "No one will save you today. Not even 1."

"Pierce!" Jin Rou pierced another sword to the dragon's chest and it made her scream out loud.

"Ahhh!" Blue blood oozed from the chest as it penetrated the deepest part and reached her heart.

"You could have stayed low and live your life. But instead, you chose this path." Jin Rou coldly said, "Everyone has their own choices, smart and dumb ones at that. Unfortunately, your choice categorizes with the latter."

"Fighting someone like you is a dumb decision?" Drasenia was injured severely but she could still speak, "Don't make me laugh! You are not the strongest out there. You are a mere speck of dust in this vast universe. There are many unimaginable beings you wouldn't ever see in your life."

"And those beings can just hide and never appear in front of me." Jin Rou pushed the sword through to her chest, "I am always the strongest, and no one can defeat me unless I die. I know those old monsters can hear me. If anyone of you is not satisfied with my words, come and let's fight to the death. "

It was an arrogant declaration. And it was all heard by many hidden eyes and ears in the void. However, no one responded to it as if they treated Jin Rou's words as a passing remark.

Jin Rou smirked and looked at the weakening dragon, "See? They are not going to bite back because they are all a bunch of losers who is afraid of light."

"Grug!" Drasenia vomited so much blood that she slowly returned to her human form and the only sword that remained pierced at her was in her chest. Her eyes were getting blurry and remembered something, "My son..."

She particularly didn't care about her offspring. That's why she could carelessly drop him anywhere. However, in her moment of near death, she suddenly thought of him and couldn't help but call out.

Jin Rou knew that Drasenia was dying. There was no way that she could heal with a sword pierced at her heart. It was the source of all Dragon Emperor's super regeneration and once affected, it would also affect their healing process.

"Your son will know the world without your name. Or how you look." Jin Rou flatly spoke, "He will live amongst humans and blend in. Isn't that amazing? The human race you hated so much will be taking care of your son."

Drasenia looked at Jin Rou with weak eyes. It felt like any moment, she would close it and die, "My son will be okay..."

He was a son of a Dragon Emperor, so it was natural that he would have the talents of his parents. Being a Dragon Emperor himself wasn't also a faraway dream.

"He will." Jin Rou assured. The offspring had nothing to do with the wars and blood of his parents. Jin Rou wouldn't involve him in this kind of mess. He would make sure that he find the perfect family for the offspring to live like a real human.

Drasenia vomited more blood as she looked at the sky in front of her, "Do you know why I hate you so much, Han Li?"

She lifted her hand, shaking, and attempted to reach the sky with her hands, "Because... for us dragons, the sky is bounded to restrict us no matter how strong we are. But you... cough... on the other hand, can reach the sky higher than our sky..."

Jin Rou listened attentively. His expression didn't change but he could understand where she's coming from, "You Dragon Emperors are already strong enough to threaten the realms. Even the strongest emperors of this world will struggle in defeating any one of you. The sky you reached is already enough, supposedly."

"You... cannot... understand," Drasenia felt her life being sapped out of her body. She was already one step away from death, "You cannot possibly... understand what it feels... not to reach the sky you want to reach..."

"Thump!" Drasenia's hand slumped down as her eyes stopped moving and turned white. She died, with so many regrets. It was obvious in her eyes that she had so many regrets that if she could take back time, she would possibly avoid them and take a different choice.
