East Sea Power, Flooding Jiangnan!

"Ao Guang, you're insane!"

Seeing this, even Hao Zhong's expression changed drastically.

"Yes, I'm insane. I went insane over eighty years ago!"

"I failed back then, becoming a laughingstock among the myriad races, ridiculed for decades!"

"Today, even if it costs me my life, I will let you Humans know that I, Ao Guang, am not someone who can be bullied by just anyone!"

"Morning Bell, I know your defense is invincible among your peers, but with the power of the entire East Sea, how long can your golden bell withstand it!"

Ao Guang swept in with the giant waves of the entire East Sea, churning the rivers and seas, dragon blood spurting from its mouth, dyeing the seawater red!

This was its biggest trump card, burning its life as the price, with the entire East Sea as its power source. The damage and range of this skill had already surpassed the level of a War King!

It was somewhat similar to the [Forbidden Art · Surge of Wind] that Ling Feng used back then. Just imagine how terrifying the forbidden technique used by Ling Feng, who was only at Tier 1 Level 0, was. How terrifying would the forbidden technique used by a Tier 39 Supreme War King be!

It could only be described with four words: earth-shattering!

The ability to control water was a common skill for both dragons and flood dragons, but controlling the entire ocean was something Ao Guang could be proud of, even as just a flood dragon. No wonder he could be included among the high-level dragon representatives stationed on Earth despite his flood dragon status!

But this forbidden technique was powerful, and the price Ao Guang had to pay to use it was also extremely high!

This was equivalent to a desperate move, and it would not be used unless life and death were on the line!

Ao Guang's actions stunned everyone. Was this dragon so short-tempered?

But now was not the time to consider why Ao Guang wanted to use such a deadly move!

Because once this monstrous tsunami, gathering the power of the entire East Sea, descended, the hundreds of millions of people in the entire Jiangnan Base City would probably not survive!

Under such power of nature, Hao Zhong, who specialized in defense, might be spared, but the chances of survival for others were almost zero, even for Chen Gu, the Tier 35 War King!

"This... what the hell is this skill? Is this the strength of a Supreme War King?"

Hao Jian was so frightened that his face turned pale. Looking at the monstrous water curtain, his voice trembled. Under such power of nature, any resistance was futile. Could it be that Hao Jian would perish with the entire Jiangnan Base City today?

Xu Kun said with a pained expression, "So that dragon wasn't kidding when it said it wanted to flood the entire Jiangnan Base City!"

Mu Qingxuan, who was standing next to him, still had a calm expression. "This is no longer the power of a skill that can be used at the War King level. Ao Guang, as a Flood Dragon, can be entrusted with important tasks by the Dragon Race precisely because it went through nine deaths and came back to life in the Haotian Pagoda and obtained this forbidden skill. Every time it's used, its own attributes will be greatly reduced, but the power is indeed very considerable. Even Hao Zhong's defense cannot withstand this kind of power!"

"But it is precisely because it possesses such terrifying power that after what happened back then, it was able to join the Dragon Race and was also named the East Sea Dragon King by the Dragon Race, with the entire East Sea as its territory!"

The thing from back then?

Xu Kun had long had doubts. Ao Guang originally seemed very afraid of the strength of his second uncle and second aunt, and even kept a long distance away, but at this moment, it was burning its foundation to use this great forbidden technique because of Chen Gu's words just now!

Could there be some secrets in this?

"Don't insult people by pointing out their shortcomings. Chen Gu is also a War King, but she is too young and only knows some superficial things about what happened back then. She doesn't know that that incident is Ao Guang's eternal pain. Because of that incident, it was abandoned by the entire Flood Dragon Race and became a laughingstock among the myriad races. Originally, with its S-grade talent and as an old War King, it would have been easy to break through the fortieth level of the Haotian Pagoda, but it has stubbornly stayed on the thirty-ninth floor of the Haotian Pagoda for decades..."

Stayed on the thirty-ninth floor of the Haotian Pagoda for decades?

Xu Kun felt his scalp tingle when he heard this. All the myriad races knew that even in the case of poor talent, the higher the number of Haotian Pagoda floors climbed, in addition to the more attributes brought by the level, the more important thing was to obtain other more powerful external help!

One sublimation every ten levels, even if the talent is a few levels worse, as long as the level is high enough, it can easily solve the problem of low-level high-talent people!

For example, a Tier 1 Level 0 F-grade race boss can easily handle an S-grade Level 0 novice. This is only at a low level, and the gap becomes larger as the level goes up!

No one can refuse the temptation of a higher level, unless there are other restrictions that force him to stop here!

What kind of people or things in the higher levels of the Haotian Pagoda made an old War King stop in his tracks and fear for decades?

"Sister Chen, don't provoke it. This is the lives of hundreds of millions of people in Jiangnan Base City!"

Sikong Zhen was anxious. The moment he saw Ao Guang taking it seriously and sweeping in with the waves, his eyes went dark and his steps were heavy!

Once the monstrous waves crashed down, even if Sikong Zhen didn't die, he would have to pay with his life for causing the deaths of hundreds of millions of people during his tenure as the city's chief commander!

Even the entire Sikong family would be questioned!

Hao Zhong stopped Chen Gu, walked out of the golden bell's protection range, and faced Ao Guang directly, "Old Dragon King, there is no deep hatred between you and me. If my wife said something wrong, I apologize to you on her behalf! I hope you withdraw your supernatural powers!"

"This concerns the lives of hundreds of millions of people in Jiangnan Base City. Old Dragon King, your divine power is boundless, and we are ashamed of ourselves, but you might as well think about yourself and your dragon sons and grandsons in the East Sea. Once such a disaster is caused, the high-level Humans will definitely avenge this. At that time, the floating corpses in the East Sea shouldn't be what you want to see, right!"

Compared to the number of Humans, the number of sea tribes in the East Sea is even greater. The entire East Sea is Ao Guang's territory, and many of the aquatic tribes living there have a bit of its blood. These aquatic tribes are Ao Guang's descendants!

Hao Zhong's words were also a warning to Ao Guang that it had the ability to flood Jiangnan Base City and cause the deaths of hundreds of millions of people, but at the same time, if it did so, the Human Race would carry out endless revenge!

It, Ao Guang, and the hundreds of millions of aquatic tribes in the East Sea would be buried with the Human people who died in this disaster!

"Morning Bell, you want to use this to threaten me?" Ao Guang's voice was cold.

Hao Zhong was neither humble nor arrogant, "I dare not, but the Old Dragon King should not want to cause unpredictable consequences for a moment's anger, right?"

"Stop talking nonsense, it's simple to want me to calm the tsunami, hand over the Human Race trial-taker Kun, and I will retreat!"

"Impossible!" Hao Zhong refused outright!

Not to mention that he didn't know who Kun was or where he was now, even if he did, a Human who created history and brought huge benefits to the entire Human Race during the novice trial alone, even if his talent was only F-grade, he didn't know how much achievement he could obtain in the future. Such a person should be protected and loved by the entire Human Race!

For this reason, no matter who it was, they would not choose to compromise because of Ao Guang's threat!

"Then there's nothing to talk about. Hao Zhong, you are still too young and think that threatening me with the high-level Humans and warning me with the entire East Sea aquatic race will make me hesitate?"

"I'm not afraid to tell you, I didn't want to live eighty years ago!"

"Today, I will take this opportunity to settle both old and new scores together!"

"I, Ao Guang, will let all the races know that the coward Ao Guang of yesteryear is no more! To have hundreds of millions of the Human Race buried with me, it's worth it! Hahaha!"

Within the water screen, Ao Guang's face was contorted in madness.

The surging water screen continued to sweep towards Jiangnan Base City.

"Brother Hao, what are we going to do?" Sikong Zhen was nearly in tears with anxiety.

Hao Zhong also wore a helpless expression. Has this old dragon truly lost his mind? Is he not even afraid of death?

Just as they were at their wit's end, Chen Gu, who had been filled with guilt, suddenly froze.

Confirming that she hadn't misheard, she decisively rushed out of the Golden Bell's protective range.

"Auntie, what are you doing!" Hao Zhong's eyes nearly burst from their sockets, thinking that Chen Gu regretted provoking Ao Guang and was trying to atone with her own life!

But Chen Gu paid him no heed, staring at the tsunami that filled the entire sky, her face paling slightly.

Taking a deep breath, she said coldly, "Ao Guang, you're still the same as you were eighty years ago, nothing but a complete waste! A coward scorned by all the races!"

Hao Zhong and the others were dumbfounded. Not only was Ao Guang crazy, but Chen Gu had also lost it now!

Was she not afraid of further enraging Ao Guang?

"Dusk Drum, I told you, you would regret it!"

"Back then, you said the same thing to Heavenly King Li's family!"

The tsunami faltered for a moment, nearly losing its momentum and receding.

"Back then, you flooded Chen Tang Pass, and today you flood Jiangnan Base City. I have to say, Ao Guang, you really don't have any other real skills besides this!"

"You can't beat anyone of the same rank. Their family climbed to the forty-something floors of the Haotian Pagoda long ago. And you?"

"You've lingered on the thirty-ninth floor for decades, even letting us juniors who were born decades later catch up!"

"What are you afraid of?"

"Aren't you afraid of death? Why don't you dare climb to the forty-something floors and have a life-or-death duel with their family?"

"Or are you waiting, waiting for the Li family to leave the forty-something floors before you dare to go further?"

"What else can you do besides using the lives of the weak as a threat?"

"As a Flood Dragon, you were abandoned by the entire Flood Dragon Race and became a lackey of the Dragon Race!"

"As a supreme War King, you have no heart of a strong person, stagnating and cowering on the thirty-ninth floor!"

"As a father, you can neither educate your children well, nor protect them, nor... do you even have the courage to avenge your son!"

"Think about your son who has been paralyzed in bed for decades. You've been working like a dog for the Dragon Race for so many years. Have they helped you heal your son?"

"You're just a dog that barks but doesn't bite. The Human Race wasn't afraid of you Ao Guang eighty years ago, and it's the same today. Even if I, Chen Gu, die, I will never be a coward like you, Ao Guang. If you have the guts, come at me! I, Chen Gu, am willing to live and die with the hundreds of millions of people in Jiangnan Base City, and I will never be threatened by a cowardly dragon like you!"

Chen Gu's voice, transmitted through the Dusk Drum, resounded in the ears of every citizen of Jiangnan Base City.

Some people were cursing, cursing Chen Gu, the War King who had originally protected them, for being the one to cause trouble with her big mouth. Now, she wasn't satisfied and wanted to further enrage Ao Guang. Was she not afraid of dying quickly enough?

You, Chen Gu, want to die, but we don't!

But many people fell silent after hearing Chen Gu's words and fell into deep thought!

This included the group of experts led by Hao Zhong in mid-air.

As high-ranking officials, they naturally knew that Ao Guang's anger was fake, and his true intention was to take the opportunity to threaten them and force them to hand over the Kun!

But was that realistic?

No information about the Kun had appeared, and it was not even clear whether it was in other base cities or Jiangnan Base City!

In this situation, they couldn't hand it over even if they wanted to!

Sikong Zhen kept contacting the high-level members of the Human Race, but the information he sent out was like a stone sinking into the sea. The attitude of the higher-ups was too ambiguous. Did they really want to ignore the lives of hundreds of millions of people here?

In such a situation, there was very little that Hao Zhong and the others could do!

So what to do?

The result was nothing more than dying in humiliation or dying in glory!

Chen Gu's further provoking Ao Guang, even ruthlessly exposing the scars hidden in its heart, was to tell Ao Guang with a tough attitude!

The Human Race would rather die standing than live on its knees!

Wanting to hand over the Human Race's prodigy? No way!

If you have the guts, do it!

After Chen Gu's words, Ao Guang was rarely silent, and even the overwhelming tsunami was dormant under its Dragon Body.

Just as everyone was silently watching what Ao Guang would do in the face of the Human Race's tough stance, they only heard Ao Guang burst into laughter.

"Li Jing, Nezha, good, I, Ao Guang, was humiliated by you father and son back then, and today, I have witnessed the backbone of these Human Race juniors!"

As Ao Guang's body trembled, a portion of the seawater had already begun to impact the Golden Bell. Although the Golden Bell's defense was strong, it could not stop the pervasive water flow. Soon, the entire Jiangnan Base City was flooded!

Enough, decades of living in disgrace is enough. Dusk Drum, you're right, I, Ao Guang, am a coward. Back then, I was threatened by Yang Jian, and the entire Flood Dragon Race abandoned me. Now, I serve the Dragon Race, but I can't get back my prodigy son!

"Since that's the case, rather than live in shame, I'd rather die gloriously!"

"After I die, who cares if there's a massive flood, who cares if the rivers overflow, what does it have to do with me!"

"Let it be submerged, Jiangnan Base City!"

Chen Gu's face turned pale instantly, her fingers clenched tightly.

Sister-in-law, you've really screwed me over. Are you sure nothing will happen like this?

Just as all the Human Race in the base city fell into despair, a complex rune appeared directly in front of the tsunami. Immediately afterward, a towering earth wall rose from the ground, barely stopping the tsunami's further advance. Hao Zhong's golden bell acted as a support behind this earth wall.

"Ao Guang, stop!"
