Chapter 916: Revealing His Innate Talent!
Zhao Canglan spat blood, reminded once more that he'd lost something precious.
"Enough. Don't waste time," Yun Xiao said. "Zhao Canglan, have Long Hao and Long Kun bring the people back, or else... you know what." As he spoke, he pinched Yun Lingchen's ear. The little white rabbit trembled all over, tears streaming down her cheeks.
"You're scared? In your dreams!" Zhao Canglan roared.
"Zhao Canglan, tell them to return!" Yun Lingchen had finally had enough. Couldn't this Zhao Changlan understand the gravity of the situation?
Suppressing the Harmony Divine Palace was crucial for the Heavenly Deity Alliance, but not so important for their Elysian Immortal Palace.
Hearing Yun Lingchen's shout, Zhao Canglan snapped out of his frenzied state, regaining a bit of clarity.
"Fine! Don't rush me!"
His dao heart was strong enough that he could regain some reason even now.
When he turned around, he saw that Long Hao and Long Kun hadn't taken the people very far.
The battle here was too thrilling; most couldn't help but stop and watch. And most weren't from the Dragon Devil Clan but disciples from other sects who had been conscripted. No matter how much Long Hao and Long Kun shouted themselves hoarse at the front, the army's progress was still slow."Elysian Immortal Palace, bring the people back and save Yun Lingchen!" Zhao Canglan's voice carried a sob as he rushed over, screaming hoarsely.
Over there, some of the Elysian Immortal Palace disciples had already been moving slowly. Seeing the golden boy and jade girl being crushed, they panicked too.
"Return! Quickly!"
They called out to about a few hundred people, mostly those they had conscripted themselves. These people closely followed the Elysian Immortal Palace disciples and hurriedly retreated.
"We can't go back!" Long Hao roared.
After exchanging blows with Yun Xiao just now, he already felt inferior in strength. Now, in his once-proud heart, there was deep awe.
That celestial slave had become a monster!
Long Hao and Long Kun were resolute, leading a portion of the Dragon Devil Clan. With ferocious expressions, they shouted at the top of their lungs.
"Going to the Extreme Yin Star to seize their Parent Flag is the only way to deal with that accursed eunuch! Going back now will only let him control us, lose the big picture, and we'll fail to drive the Harmony Divine Palace out of the Heavenly Deity Alliance!"
"Yes! Everyone from the Elysian Immortal Palace, don't be afraid!" Long Kun continued sharply, "Yun Lingchen is Palace Master Yun's only beloved daughter. If Yun Xiao dares to humiliate her, it will surely cause the Elysian Immortal Palace to come out in full force and wipe out the Extreme Yin Celestial Realm! Even if that eunuch isn't thinking straight, the Three Divas won't let him act recklessly!"
"But what about your wives?" an Elysian Immortal Palace disciple couldn't help but ask.
Long Hao and Long Kun, the two Young Dragon Lords, nearly spat blood. They had been forcing themselves to ignore that; why bring it up again? Couldn't they pretend they didn't exist?
"They will die to contribute to the Southern Divine Dragon Realm!" Long Hao declared. After speaking, he looked deeply over there, unexpectedly meeting Shen Nanyin's gaze.
They really weren't that far away!
Shen Nanyin could even tell what he was saying by reading his lips.
Meanwhile, Long Hao was indeed reminding her:
"Just end it all with death!
Don't give that eunuch dog another chance to smear the Southern Divine Dragon Realm!
"As long as you die, everything will be fine!"
"Long Hao, Long Kun!" Zhao Canglan approached, his face deathly pale. "Let's retreat together! Saving Yun Lingchen is what matters!"
Long Hao glanced at Zhao Canglan's missing lower half, his expression conflicted. He shook his head. "Your Elysian Immortal Palace can go back. We have only one strategy left to break this stalemate. This is a millennial plan; those two can be sacrificed!"
"Long Hao! If anything happens to Yun Lingchen, you and the Dragon Devil Clan will be held responsible!" Zhao Canglan snarled.
"Get lost!" Long Hao cursed, his heart tormented and impatient.
This outburst made it clear that a legless Zhao Canglan would hardly earn his respect in the future.
"You!" Zhao Canglan felt the coldness of the world, his heart seething with rage.
Helpless, he could only lead the 400 conscripted men back.
And so, Long Hao and Long Kun had about 800 men under their command.
"Go!"
The two Young Dragon Lords roared, anxiety gnawing at their hearts.
Yet after their command, they found that aside from their own Dragon Devil Clan, many members of the Alliance Army remained rooted, exchanging uncertain glances, their resolve wavering.
At that moment, Zhao Canglan returned with his men.
"Yun Xiao, release Yun Lingchen. Our people have all come back!" Zhao Canglan's face was grim; he could no longer bring himself to curse at Yun Xiao and call him a eunuch dog.
"What about them?" Yun Xiao pointed at Long Hao and Long Kun.
"They insist on attacking the Extreme Yin Star. I can't control them! At worst, you can keep tormenting the two Young Dragon Consorts, just don't touch Yun Lingchen!" Zhao Canglan vented his resentment.
"Zhao Canglan, you shameless man!"
Upon hearing this, Shi Feifei erupted in fury, struggling within the Sky Sea Silk, her every move exuding allure.
Shen Nanyin, on the other hand, looked lost and sorrowful.
More than anyone, she knew her man would never return. That heartless glance just now marked the end of everything.
Just then, even more piercing voices rang out from afar!
"He's just a gutless dead eunuch! What can he do by holding people hostage?"
"A coward with no guts, only knows how to humiliate women! But all he can do is slobber like a toad!"
"Haha, this eunuch dog is a joke! Doesn't even have the equipment, yet he tries to threaten with women? He's just indulging his hand fetish, which only highlights his incompetence!"
"Sorry! In this regard, even a ten-year-old kid is more dangerous than him!"
"Hahahaha..."
The mocking laughter echoed loudly, reaching Yun Xiao's side. Those Dragon Devil Clan members were jeering, clearly under Long Kun and Long Hao's instigation.
The more they spoke this way, the more they showed they didn't care about Yun Xiao's actions. Their followers relaxed, treating it as no big deal.
As for killing... Long Hao and his group couldn't wait for Yun Xiao to kill their wives!
"Eunuch! Eunuch!"
"Useless coward, if you're so tough, why don't you do something?"
"If you can't, stop clinging to them. Even after 10,000 years, all you can do is drool! How pathetic!"
The deafening voices came from those 800 men. They had clearly unified their stance, fearless, treating this as nothing serious.
Originally, Yun Xiao had been humiliating them. Now, through a sort of psychological victory, they clung to his weakness, mocking him mercilessly.
In this way, if he behaved like last time, the more he did, the more it exposed his impotence and helplessness, his pity and sorrow—completely failing to achieve any effect of humiliation.
The sky was filled with laughter and jeers. In fact, it was Long Hao and Long Kun provoking Yun Xiao, pushing him to kill the two Young Dragon Consorts in a fit of rage.
"Tsk tsk! Without a man's prowess, the poor thing must be suffering inside!"
"So hard to bear, makes you want to cry."
"What to do? Maybe play a bit to fill the emptiness, tsk tsk tsk!"
The more they taunted, the more excited they became. Looking at Yun Xiao, their eyes were full of deep disdain, regardless of gender. In fact, the scorn and mockery from the women were even more cutting.
Most importantly, in this relaxed atmosphere, they truly believed Yun Xiao posed no real threat to the two Young Dragon Consorts. They unified their goal and all headed toward the Extreme Yin Celestial Realm!
"Heh." Long Hao looked back through the crowd, raising an eyebrow as he glanced at Yun Xiao, his eyes full of mockery. The sneer at the corner of his mouth was extremely arrogant.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
As for Long Kun, he deliberately placed his hand below his navel, flaunting the overwhelming assets of their Dragon Devil Clan to Yun Xiao.
They marched forward without any inner turmoil, advancing swiftly.
Even if they scattered, they would charge toward the Extreme Yin Star!
The mocking laughter continued unabated.
Back in the Million Starlight Palace, the elders could only shake their heads with wry smiles, secretly noting that these youngsters knew how to strike where it hurt; their mindsets were indeed strong.
The celestial slave's weakness was that he could not be a real man.
Even among the Elysian Immortal Palace disciples, both men and women shook their heads at the ridiculed Yun Xiao.
Shen Nanyin listened to the mockery. Though abandoned, she could only accept it helplessly. She looked at Yun Xiao with a calm gaze, as if to say, "Go ahead, what can you do to me?"
She was considered reserved, but Shi Feifei, provoked by the crowd's ridicule, decided to play along. Since Long Kun no longer cared, she lifted her chin high, arching her eyebrow playfully at Yun Xiao. To her, he was just a child...
All the mockery pierced Yun Xiao's mind like 10,000 swords, cutting deep and relentlessly.
Originally, his identity didn't bother him at all.
But now, Si Ji had already tasted the Nine Dragons Ascension, and Wan Ji and Yu Ji were well aware...
Those taunts, sneers, and scornful looks swirled around his ears!
And so, Yun Xiao erupted in anger.
"Enough is enough! I won't tolerate this any longer!"
A true man stood tall in the world; how could he suffer such humiliation without cause?
He didn't want to be a celestial slave for even a single moment more!
"Who says there's no perfect genius in this world? I am one!"
As Yun Xiao roared these words amid the sky filled with laughter, blazing flames erupted from his eyes, and that fierce fire burned onto the golden-haired, dignified, and noble Young Dragon Consort, Shen Nanyin!
"Useless fool!" Shen Nanyin rolled her eyes.
Her words ignited a fire in him more potent than anything Thunder Emissary Cao had ever provoked.
Just after she spoke, she suddenly discovered that the Sky Sea Silk binding her had loosened!
Then, the silk lengthened and widened, suddenly transforming into a light-blue, underwater starry curtain, enveloping her and Yun Xiao within a semi-transparent, enclosed space!
From inside, looking out, specks of starlight shimmered!
From the outside looking in, one could vaguely see two figures, one large and one small—their outlines clear, details blurred, but enough to grasp the situation...
"What is happening?"
For a moment, everyone on and off the battlefield, as well as the onlookers in the Million Starlight Palace, stood stunned, watching the swirling Sky Sea Silk.
RIP! In the next instant, the sound of battle armor tearing exploded, and they saw Shen Nanyin falling onto the Sky Sea Silk.
From the silhouette, she appeared utterly bare, with only her long hair flowing!
The smaller figure was the same... People wondered if it was an illusion, but they seemed to see an innate talent no less than that of the Dragon Devil Clan within that silhouette!
"What!?"
In the following moment, Shen Nanyin let out a piercing scream, covering her mouth—a cry that swept across the battlefield and reached the Million Starlight Palace!
From that scream, one could hear profound disbelief, fear, and utter shock.
From that moment on, the entire world seemed to stand still...
