Dragon Tamer

Chapter 533: Chapter 535: Enemies on a Narrow Road
 

“Swoosh!!!!”

A sword swept past, like the tail of a serpent, with a cold glint of light, and it was deadly enough!

The Sword Spirit Dragon thrust straight at the Ruin Dragon’s eyes, which maintained its Dragon Pupil and never expected a flying sword reserved by Zhu Minglang to be at its side. By the time it reacted, it was too late to dodge!

“Roar!!!!!!!!!!”

The Ruin Dragon let out a painful roar as its body toppled backward. The power of this sword was not only simple enough to blind its eyes but the generated Sword Power almost penetrated its skull too.

And Zhou Xian, who was riding on the Ruin Dragon’s back, preparing to shoot that dark golden arrow at Zhu Minglang, who was trapped, ended up shooting astray due to the Ruin Dragon’s rearing back, sending the arrow flying toward the elders who were surrounding from the flank.

Around Elder Chen, there was a group of Dragon Shepherds. They, along with the Divine and Mortals, were all attacking Zhu Minglang, but then that immensely lethal Light Crossbow Arrow exploded among them, and the strange, powerful, spinning airflow sent them flying.

Those who fell into Absolute Valley ended up in Absolute Valley, those who crashed into the mountains hit the mountains, and several clumsy Dragon Kings got entangled, with their tails sweeping wildly and throwing even more people flying.

“Young Master Zhou is the real man of valor indeed, I owe you so much that words cannot express, I shall take my leave now!” Zhu Minglang said sarcastically to Zhou Xian as he bowed his hands mockingly before escaping quickly atop the Azure Blood Sword.

Zhou Xian’s face turned black with anger!!

That one arrow could have blasted his opponent into serious injury, but to his fury, it hit his own people instead, and to add insult to injury, he was mocked like that!!

Who in the world was this person? He was determined to tear him to pieces!!

“Catch him, at all costs!!” Zhou Xian bellowed furiously.

There were many Dragon Beasts on the ancient pines of the cliff; some had massive wings, some could hover in mid-air, and some were adept at racing up cliffs. They all pursued relentlessly, biting at Zhu Minglang’s sword-riding escape.

But then, something bizarre happened. They thought they had chased him into the darkness of Black Cliff Ridge. They had seen Zhu Minglang’s figure a moment before, but the next moment, the mountain shadows shifted, the cliffs seemed to melt away, and the lush, sky-obscuring pines inexplicably turned into pools of black water…

The mountain disappeared, the stone walls disappeared, the green pines disappeared, and the person had vanished into this eerie scene. Only some black dust that remained between the cliffs and the valley dissipated slowly in the wisps of early morning sunlight.

“Where is he?!”

“Where is he?!!!”

Zhou Xian followed suit, roaring thunderously.

“We don’t know. We chased him here and saw a mirage made of black smoke. After he flew into it, he disappeared along with the mirage,” said a Divine and Mortal who was just one step away from the King-level realm.

“Good-for-nothings, all of you!!!” Zhou Xian was fuming to the point of steaming.

Those three perfect Platinum Cultivation Fruits; they had guarded this cliff for many days, braving the elements, and spent a vast amount of money. Just the consumption of gold by the twenty thousand Iron Crossbow Army was a cartload a day!

Letting off steam did not help, and luckily Mingji, the young lad from the heavens, had not fallen too deep into Absolute Valley and was rescued.

“We must dig three feet into the ground to find him!!” Mingji growled, pulling at his wounds as he did.

But the scars and the pain on his body were nothing compared to the humiliation in his heart!

“What do we do now without the Cultivation Fruit…” Elder Chen said.

“My lord, I’ve found some information that might compensate for our losses this time,” said a man with mouse tattoos approaching.

“Speak!”

The man with the mouse tattoos relayed his information, and Zhou Xian, Mingji, and Elder Chen’s eyes began to turn as though they were thinking.

“Humph, we cannot return empty-handed this time; let’s do as he said!” Zhou Xian said.

…

…

Dawn had broken, and Zhu Minglang had already fled far away, following the Li Chuan River and flying towards Ancestral Dragon City-State.

Nan Lingsha had a painting boat and followed Zhu Minglang.

“This Cultivation Fruit, can it help both God and Mortal break through to the King-level realm?” Zhu Minglang asked.

“Yes, give it to Little Qingzhuo, its attributes will be more compatible with the Cultivation Fruit,” Nan Lingsha replied.

“You go back to the city first, I’m going to collect the Spiritual Objects in a few other places,” Zhu Minglang said to Nan Lingsha.

“Alright.”

…

Nan Lingsha returned to Ancestral Dragon City-State, considering the Time Wave would greatly affect the Nan Family Sacred Forest, she did not go back to the Dragon Taming Academy, but headed directly to the Nan Family Sacred Forest.

As soon as she arrived at the Nan Family Residence, a steward came running out in a fluster and said with some stuttering to Nan Lingsha, “Regent, someone is trying to seize our Sacred Forest, they have many masters, and their actions are extremely rampant, not taking our people seriously at all. Many of our guardians in the residence have been injured, and they have all gone into the Sacred Forest.”

Nan Lingsha wasn’t that surprised.

The Nan Family Sacred Forest was now no less worthy than the Cultivation Fruit Trees; the Ten Thousand Year Silver Fir was even more precious than the Platinum Cultivation Fruits. Some forces from the Supreme Court Courtyard Continent were sure not to let go of this Sacred Forest!

“Tell everyone in the residence to retreat first; I’ll handle it,” Nan Lingsha instructed.

As she made her way there, the Nan Family Residence had been severely damaged; several of the pavilions Nan Lingsha liked were destroyed. The half-dead guards of the residence were everywhere; thankfully, they had not yet recklessly started a massacre. After all, they were within the territory of the Ancestral Dragon City-State, where there were rulers and protectors; they were clearly here for the Sacred Forest.

…

“Everyone, stand down,” Nan Lingsha said as she stepped into the Sacred Forest and saw the people who had come to forcefully take over the Sacred Forest.

However, when she saw a few familiar figures, Nan Lingsha couldn’t help but show a look of astonishment.

It turned out to be those people from the Great Zhou Clan!

Their Iron Crossbow Army could not possibly enter Ancestral Dragon City-State; instead, it was those small Sects that had pledged allegiance to them, including several elders from the Great Zhou Clan, who had appeared in the Sacred Forest.

Could they have noticed?

At first, that’s what Nan Lingsha believed—they were here for revenge.

But looking at the current situation, it seemed not quite right.

Nan Lingsha scanned the area and quickly noticed several individuals wearing headdresses with mouse patterns, and she saw that Zhou Xian was not among this aggressive bunch…

Nan Lingsha realized what was going on.

Well, that really is interesting.

They had their Cultivation Fruits snatched away and, driven by desperation, decided to rob someone else’s treasures.

And by coincidence, they chose the Nan Family Sacred Forest!

It must be the people from Mouse Despise Taoist Temple. They had held a grudge against the Nan Family because of an incident with a Millennium Cultivation Fruit and intended to present the Great Zhou Clan with a major gift, while perfectly avenging themselves.

These people…

Had just been severely dealt with before dawn, yet they were already coming back for more!
