All That Is Tall, I Despise!

Terrifying "Soul Power" fluctuations erupted, and Neuvillette's appearance changed slightly.

The pair of Hydro Blue dragon horns proved Neuvillette's identity.

"???"

Lakesius was utterly bewildered. If he still could not sense such powerful Soul Power fluctuations, then his status as a quasi-Titled Douluo would be undeserved.

The Blazing Fire Azure Dragon was likewise shaken. This was the aura of an absolute superior, rendering this ninety-five-thousand-year-old Subdragon completely unable to move as it trembled in fear.

Among dragonkind, bloodline ranks were incomparably strict. True dragons held absolute suppression over Subdragons, while Subdragons in turn held absolute suppression over ordinary Soul Beasts with dragon bloodlines.

The "human" in the distance saw him as though it had seen the source of its bloodline!

That oppressive sensation prevented it from even displaying half of its full strength!

No, why did the one before it harbor hostility toward it?

A Subdragon was still a dragon, all right? Besides, it was already this powerful, only a few thousand years away from becoming a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast.

Moreover, as fellow dragons, why would this dragon in human form harbor killing intent toward it?

Shouldn't they join forces first and deal with that human wreathed in flames?

"Roar..."

The Blazing Fire Azure Dragon let out a confused roar. It was puzzled and unable to understand, and this roar was also a means of communication. It wanted to die knowing why.

As a fellow clansman, why did Neuvillette intend to kill it?

Even if he wanted to kill it, shouldn't he deal with the outsider first before killing it?

Neuvillette ignored the Blazing Fire Azure Dragon's roar. Tall and upright, he strode toward the man and the Subdragon with the bearing of a dragon and tiger.

"Grandson?"

Lakesius froze. He had never imagined that Neuvillette would appear here!

Even if Neuvillette had obtained an enormous opportunity within the Treasure Land, he had previously only been at the level of a Soul Emperor.

No matter how much stronger he had become, how strong could he possibly be?

Lakesius had not considered this at all. Neuvillette being able to track him meant that Neuvillette was far from as weak as he had imagined.

After coming back to his senses, Lakesius prepared to flee with Neuvillette.

He was already no match for this Blazing Fire Azure Dragon. Before it got serious, they could still trade blows evenly.

But once it got serious, fleeing would be his only option.

Now, he even had an extra "burden," making it even more impossible for him to be a match for the Blazing Fire Azure Dragon.

At that thought, Lakesius felt overwhelming pressure. The child might not know better, but he could not afford not to.

Just then, Lakesius was utterly dumbfounded.

"Hmm???"

Leaving aside the Golden Soul Ring on Neuvillette's body.

Why was this Blazing Fire Azure Dragon trembling?

Whenever Neuvillette took a step forward, it took a step back. Yet it did not dare flee, instead looking pitiful and helpless?

The Blazing Fire Azure Dragon's change drew Lakesius's attention. He realized that this Blazing Fire Azure Dragon seemed extremely fearful and reverent toward Neuvillette.

This was a Subdragon around ninety-five thousand years old. Why would it feel such emotions toward a human?

Even if a Titled Douluo had arrived, it should not have reacted like this, right?

An ordinary Titled Douluo might not even be its match, so how could it possibly fear a Titled Douluo?

Soul Beasts over ninety thousand years old and nearing one hundred thousand years, even if they merely possessed dragon bloodlines, were all top-tier Soul Beasts. Ordinary Titled Douluo would have to take a detour upon encountering one.

Much less a Subdragon!

In just a few moments, Neuvillette had reached Lakesius's side, but his gaze was not on Lakesius.

Instead, he stared at the "Flame Lizard" in the distance.

After thinking for a moment, Neuvillette finally said, "Flame Lizard, you will test my newly acquired ability!"

Within the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, the two Dragon Kings of Douluo had originally intended to package up and give all their bloodlines and inheritances to Neuvillette. However, they discovered that Neuvillette's bloodline rank seemed to be even higher than theirs...

Fusing their bloodlines with his would instead make Neuvillette's bloodline less pure. That would only harm this "newborn" Hydro Dragon King.

At that thought, the Hydro Fire Dragon Kings could only smile bitterly and transform the bloodline power they regarded as most important into God Bones.

In other words, components of a "divine set," which they passed on to Neuvillette. This would allow Neuvillette to inherit their authorities and legacies without affecting the power of his own bloodline.

After so many years of erosion, their bloodline power was no longer complete. Yet if fused, it could absolutely create a new first-generation Dragon King!

But Neuvillette's bloodline power was simply too high. As fellow dragons, they could not harm this junior...

The recollection ended. Neuvillette held a scepter in his right hand while raising his left, aiming it at the Blazing Fire Azure Dragon.

Under Lakesius's astonished gaze, Neuvillette's arm flashed, and an intense fiery aura rushed toward them.

One had to know that Lakesius's Martial Soul had already evolved into the Golden Crow Martial Soul, yet he actually felt scorching heat?

Red light gathered in Neuvillette's palm. A ring of light formed from fire elements rapidly took shape before his left hand.

"All that is tall, I despise!"

Flames appeared and surged toward the Blazing Fire Azure Dragon like a spinning Water Pillar...

"Roar..." No!

The Blazing Fire Azure Dragon had never imagined that one day, it would feel so helpless when facing fire elements.

Its furious roar was already its final act of resistance—or rather, it did not dare resist at all.

Its bloodline power was at work. It was as though it stood before its own progenitor; how could it possibly resist?

The spinning pillar of fire directly blasted the Blazing Fire Azure Dragon backward and burned it. In an instant, it pierced through its body.

Seeing this, Neuvillette hurriedly stopped supplying "Soul Power." He was helping Lakesius hunt a Soul Beast, not acquiring a Soul Ring for himself.

He was somewhat stunned himself. Was the Fire Dragon King's inheritance, combined with his own skill, really this powerful?

Lakesius's mind was filled with question marks. He remembered Neuvillette having a Water Attribute. Where had this Fire Attribute, even stronger than his own, come from?

Wait, this power was not right either, was it?

Staring at the Blazing Fire Azure Dragon, which was barely clinging to life, Lakesius stood there in a daze.

This Subdragon, which even he could not defeat, had been instantly killed by Neuvillette?

"Hiss..."

Lakesius drew in a sharp breath, feeling as though he were dreaming.

"Old man, it's about to die. You..."

What were they waiting for?

"Ah? Oh..."

Only after Neuvillette's reminder did Lakesius come back to his senses, nodding subconsciously.

Yet he could not help glancing at Neuvillette a few more times. This child had grown up...
