“Keng!”

Wang Shuang’s all-in blow was unable to block Valen’s strike. His sword was sent flying and fresh blood spurted out from his mouth and he flew into the sky.

“Die!”

Valen pointed and a streak of killing energy charged at Wang Shuang. This would definitely kill him!

However, at that moment, a dragon roared. The voice seemed far but it charged to their ears. A dragon claw formed and grabbed Wang Shuang, pulling him away and helping him dodge Valen’s strike!

....

In the wind, a middle aged man in a green robe stood in the air like a celestial. Golden dragon power rose up in his palm and he pulled Wang Shuang back, “General Wang Shuang, are you okay?”

“I..”

Wang Shuang opened his eyes and his pupils constricted, ‘Your Majesty.. I lost, I.. deserve to die!”

All of a sudden, even us players were shocked. This seemingly celestial middle aged man was actually the ruler of Xuanyuan Empire? This.. This didn’t match what we thought. We thought that he would be buffed by emperor energy, we didn’t think that he would look so casual.

“General Wang Shuang.”

Xuanyuan Ying waved and said, “Forest Guardian Dragonrider has broken through the Flame Hell Jail. Zhenyang Duke has led the Flame Army to attack from the two sides. Your Silver Frost Army and you can return back to regroup.”

“Yes, your majesty!”

Xuanyuan Ying waved and Wang Shuang landed near where the Flame Army was at. Shortly after, the Silver Frost Army members retreated and set Wang Shuang back towards Yunding Mountain.

....

“Finally.”

Valen waved his halberd and smiled, “Xuanyuan Ying, you have ruled the south for too long until you humans have gone dumb. You actually dare to enter my Pioneer Forest to die?”

“This city used to belong to us, this is my country so how is it that I am asking to die?”

Xuanyuan Ying frowned, “My biggest wish is to lead millions and charge into dimension legion territory to wipe out all you evil generals and reclaim my Beiliang Province. Now that the chance is here, Valen, your era is over. Today you will definitely die here!”

“What a joke!”

Valen laughed, “you? A human with a mortal body? Even if you awakened the Dragon Bloodline then so what. Even if a true dragon comes I won’t fear him. Much less a fake human relying on true dragon power. You are a ruler of humans but to me you aren’t anything!”

“Is that so?”

Xuanyuan Ying smiled and charged. His body was covered in god dragon power and emperor energy. He pushed forwards lightly but the strength he exerted was huge. The space behind him was being suppressed and ripped open like everything was about to collapse.

“En?!”

Valen laughed manically and waved his halberd, “I have fought so many battles but I have never killed a Xuanyuan Empire emperor, today I shall make an exception!”

“Pu---”

Halberd light exploded and he clashed with Xuanyuan Ying’s palm. There was a giant explosion and the entire sky was lit up white. Right when both sides were on equal footing, Xuanyuan Ying’s body was like a dragon that charged to Valen’s right. A thin dragon scale layer covered his body like he was about to turn into a real dragon. He pushed his palm out and instantly a dragon claw attack was released on Valen’s back!

“You are asking to die!”

Valen shouted and he turned around when he was about to get hit. He waved out Extreme Desolate Slash towards Xuanyuan Ying!

Xuanyuan Ying naturally sensed how strong that strike was so he retreated. At the same time, he waved his hands to form a ripple.

“Peng!”

The slash flew across and split the ripple into two. The remaining energy was shattered by Xuanyuan Ying’s fist but it was too strong and forced Xuanyuan Ying further back.

Sparks flew and the two of them clashed many times with both sides actually having some wins!

....

“Damn!”

On the ground, Mundane Slaughter held his daggers and looked at the two of them fight. He was in awe, “In previous games.. Like Destiny, weren’t emperors useless? Why is this human emperor so strong? He is actually able to fight with a lord.”

“I don’t know.”

I killed a few Pioneer Cavalries and said, “Let’s hope that Longwu Emperor can win, if not we would lose so much and gain nothing at all.”

“En!”

Lin Xi slashed with her sword, “Let’s kill the monsters, stop looking. It would be awkward if the fire eagles and the cavalries wipe us out!”

Everyone laughed and continued to immerse in the intense battle.

Ad

On the ground and in the sky, there were intense fights.

....

After a close fight, Valen used a series of killing blows but they were all dissolved. Xuanyuan Ying stepped into the sky and held his hands behind his back. True Dragon power wrapped around him. Facing Valen’s attacks, he was not at a disadvantage. His strength was probably late Eternal Realm or complete Eternal Realm. He was stronger than King of Darkness and Senior Sister Yun, he really was terrifying!

This also showed that the Hybrid Demon Lord was late Eternal Realm. If they fought one on one, the heads of Blood Dynasty and King of Darkness wouldn’t be his match. He was roughly on Elder Dragon’s level!

“Scoff!”

Valen laughed coldly and said, “it seems like I need to use some real skill, if not.. I really can’t take down you!”

He shouted and the veins on his face were popping out. Golden energy spurted, “Come, feel the true desolate power--- Desolate Darkness Kill!”

The moment he said that, he disappeared from the spot and turned into a shadow that hunted in the cracks of the world. A second later, his halberd appeared and sliced towards Xuanyuan Ying’s shoulder.

“En!?”

Xuanyuan Ying stepped on dragon energy and his body slipped aside. He slapped and what he faced was Valen’s fist. Xuanyuan Ying retreated and Valen attacked from another direction once more. He attacked again and tried to disrupt Xuanyuan Ying’s focus.

“No use.”

Xuanyuan Ying retreated and spread his arms. Instantly many god dragon images rose into the sky, “God Dragon Realm!”

“Hong!”

A God Saint Storm spread from all directions and instantly reflected a holy image in the sky. It was as if the entire world was being locked. Valen was in a tough spot now and it was tough for him to walk. When he raised his halberd, Xuanyuan Ying dove down. His fist was covered in golden light and it hit Valen’s stomach!

Ad

“Peng--”

There was a shocking explosion and Valen spat out fresh blood. A golden true dragon flew out from his back and it was as if that fist had pierced through his body.

“Wu wa--”

Valen flew in the sky and his halberd fell to the ground.

“Actually.. Actually lost?”

Shen Mingxuan looked in the sky, “Valen is one of the ten Lords and he actually lost to a human emperor?”

“No choice, Xuanyuan Ying is just too strong!”

I frowned and looked at the sky, “It seems like Illusionary Moon is different. Such a strong emperor makes all events full of hope.”

“That might not be the case..”

Lin Xi said after killing a Pioneer Cavalry, “The humans should only have one Xuanyuan Ying but Dimension Legion Territory has ten. Xuanyuan Ying is only barely able to defeat Valen who is 8th so he probably can’t win those in front. Let’s not be so optimistic.”

“En.”

I nodded and looked as the pillars disappeared, “Lin Xi, let’s bring With You to retreat south and leave this jail. We can’t let players die here for nothing. We aren’t able to face Lord Bosses now at all.”

“En, slowly retreat!”

....

Valen continued to spit out blood. He spread his palm to retract his halberd. He was furious and his body was covered in ancient desolate power which helped to heal him. This was their advantage, their bodies were strong and recovery was like dragons. This was something humans couldn’t compare with.

“Xuanyuan Ying!”

Valen raised his head and said, “You want to kill me?”

“Why not?”

Xuanyuan Ying stood in the sky and his body seemed really majestic. He raised his hand and an ice frost dragon energy wrapped around his hand, “Valen you have committed too many sins and killed numerous humans. Even if I kill you ten thousand times it is not enough. Come, receive your punishment!”

Ad

“Preposterous, you think you can kill me?”

Valen hollered in rage but his body was locked onto by Xuanyuan Ying and he couldn’t move at all. It seemed like he could only wait there for his death. Xuanyuan Ying’s strike was probably one that Valen couldn’t block.

....

At that moment, a familiar voice spread from the skies--

“Light and darkness is just a thought!”
