After she had recovered a little, urgency immediately filled Bai Li's pale, cool face.
"Enemy attack!"
"A large horde of ferocious beasts is coming from the rear flank..."
"The beasts at the head are carrying a black palace!"
"And a chariot resembling a great sun is circling above the enemy!"
Bai Li quickly described what she had seen.
Candle Dragon narrowed his eyes, and his heart gave a jolt!
What he feared had come to pass!
That great sun must be the Heavenly Emperor of the Demon Clan's Heavenly Court.
—Di Jun!
Taiyi alone had already left the Dragon Clan struggling to hold its ground.
And now Di Jun had personally entered the fray!
Candle Dragon gently reassured her.
"Rest here and recover. I'll go take a look!"
With that, he didn't even have time to gather the troops.
His figure flashed, and he sped toward the location Bai Li had described as quickly as he could.
The Four Seas Dragon Kings immediately followed their original arrangements: some stayed on the front line to keep watch.
The others went after Candle Dragon!
Ying Long had no time to consider anything else and hurried after them.
Candle Dragon appeared at the rear encampment.
What greeted him was a vast tide of black ferocious beasts, stretching as far as the eye could see!
The warning formations the Dragon Clan had set up had already been completely shattered.
Across the sea and sky, waves of fierce, murderous energy bore down on them!
The beasts roared, and the waves surged sky-high!
Kun Peng emerged from the black palace once more and gestured behind him.
The beasts' roars abruptly died away.
Only the sound of the waves remained!
Kun Peng strolled forward, facing Candle Dragon.
"You're Candle Dragon?"
Kun Peng asked.
Candle Dragon
