Boss Azure Dragon

This is a pitch-black room, incredibly dim, as if underground, with no light visible. A row of candles is lit, illuminating the darkness, but it remains dim and oppressive.

The place is silent, not a single sound, not even the sound of breathing. The Qi is stagnant, with no breeze blowing, utterly dead.

This room is very spacious, dozens of zhang in area, large and without windows. There is no decoration, only a long table placed in the center.

At this moment, several people are already seated at that table.

He Heng is one of them, sitting somewhere in the middle, scanning his surroundings with a smile.

Beside him is the mist person. He is still shrouded in layers of mist, his face unclear, only a vague figure can be seen.

He Heng glances at the mist around him and laughs, "Jade Rakshasa, I've always been curious about how you create this mist. Is it some special martial art? It's quite good for scaring people. No wonder so many fear you. Why not teach me?"

"This is my secret technique," the mist person snorts coldly, flatly refusing He Heng's unreasonable request.

"That's no fun then," He Heng shrugs.

At this moment, a youth in black, with black eyes and black hair, suddenly lets out a cold laugh, "Sect Leader Yu, your methods are indeed formidable for scaring people, but they won't have any effect on someone like me."

The Jade Rakshasa, shrouded in mist, looks coldly at the black-clad youth. He is an exceptionally gentle and handsome young man, like a noble son, capable of making any maiden throw themselves at him. However, his eyes are exceptionally dead and dark.

He emits a hoarse voice from under the mist, "For someone like Bat Young Master, who has no eyes, my methods are indeed ineffective..."

Although the Jade Rakshasa speaks very plainly, it is actually a provocation. At the very least, saying that a blind person's eyes are not good in front of them is certainly not a kind remark.

The scene instantly falls silent. Everyone is watching the youth, whose expression remains calm, to see how he will react.

However, everyone is disappointed. Yuan Suiyun remains as calm and detached as ever, paying no attention to the Jade Rakshasa's words, sitting peacefully in his original spot. It is precisely because of Yuan Suiyun's calmness that the entire place instantly becomes dead silent. No one speaks, creating an exceptionally eerie atmosphere.

After a moment, a man of elegant demeanor breaks the silence, cupping his fists towards Yuan Suiyun and the others. "We are all renowned figures in the martial world. Why should we bicker like commoners?"

The speaker is extremely elegant in stature, but he wears an ugly and ferocious mask. His name is Young Master Yu.

"Haha, well said. Today we are here to discuss important matters, to swallow the universe. How can we let trivial matters damage our harmony?" The Jade Rakshasa suddenly laughs and cups his fists towards Yuan Suiyun.

At this moment, another person walks in from outside. Dressed in white, with a sword at his side, he has a handsome and gaunt face and a pair of beast-like eyes. He looks coldly at everyone present, sneers, and sits down directly.

Upon seeing this person, everyone present frowns. One of the burly men immediately shouts, "Gong Jiu, where is your master? Why are you here?"

"He had something to attend to, so I came in his stead," Gong Jiu says coldly, glancing at the burly man in an exceptionally indifferent tone.

The burly man shivers under Gong Jiu's gaze, as if being stared at by some primordial beast. Cold sweat breaks out on his body, and he immediately dares not speak further.

Only He Heng and a few others curl their lips, saying nothing more.

After another moment, it remains dead silent here. The air is heavy and oppressive, incredibly dim, but no one present says anything, even though they have been waiting for a long time. Who among those who can come here isn't a dominant figure, capable of summoning wind and rain? Such individuals would surely have some patience.

A while later, a figure suddenly appears in the room. His icy eyes sweep over everyone present, and then he sits down at the head of the table.

This person is of medium build, seven feet tall, and is entirely shrouded in a green robe embroidered with several lifelike azure dragons, baring their fangs and claws. He wears a strange mask, making his face invisible, only revealing a pair of deep pupils that seem to pierce through everything in the world, like a divine spirit seated high in a temple, to be worshipped but not touched.

He stands there like a towering mountain, suppressing heaven and earth, exuding an aura that looks down on the vast sky, crushing everything in the world.

From his physique, it is impossible to tell if he is male or female, old or young, or to gauge his depth. He is an enigma.

This is the leader of the Azure Dragon Society. Regardless of the ups and downs of the martial world or the turmoil of the world, he remains unchanged, a divine spirit observing the world – Boss Azure Dragon.

"Welcome, everyone, to the Azure Dragon Society to participate in this event that will influence thousands of years."

Boss Azure Dragon sits at the head, his deep eyes sweeping over everyone below. His tone is both indifferent and fervent.

"Hmph, Boss Azure Dragon, don't play coy. I'm not some greenhorn who can be fooled by your act." Who among those present isn't a powerful figure, a ruler of a region? Although they fear Boss Azure Dragon's mystery, someone still dares to question him: "Boss Azure Dragon, what important matter do you have? Speak quickly, otherwise, my sect still has important business."

Boss Azure Dragon glances sideways at the speaker and laughs. His laughter is very loud, echoing throughout the dark room, as if possessing some magical power.

Immediately, the man who just spoke cries out, blood gushing from his eyes, nostrils, ears, and mouth simultaneously. He falls down in extreme terror, his eyes still wide open, staring at Boss Azure Dragon.

"This..."

The Jade Rakshasa and others look horrified at the dead man. This was a top expert of the underworld from the Liaodong region, a figure who commanded great influence. His Nine Rakshasa Chain Death Severing Saber was at its peak. He never expected to fall here today without even getting a chance to draw his saber.

Everyone who could come here was a top expert in the world, but even they couldn't figure out how that person died. Boss Azure Dragon's martial arts are as mysterious as his identity.

Even He Heng is extremely wary of Boss Azure Dragon, as he is likely one of the few present who understands how Boss Azure Dragon killed that person. It is precisely because he knows that he is even more wary.

Ignorance breeds fearlessness; the more one knows, the more one fears.

Boss Azure Dragon just killed with a sonic attack, infusing his True Qi into his voice. Through his laughter, he killed without a trace. In an instant, he invaded the man's head, turning his brain into mush. Who could survive that?

Killing with sound is not uncommon. There are many such techniques in the world. Like the Shaolin Lion's Roar, the Daoist Tiger and Leopard Thunder Sound, etc. These techniques are passed down in major sects, and everyone present knows a little about them.

But none of them could do what Boss Azure Dragon did. He only laughed twice, without affecting anyone else, and shattered the man's brain. This was no ordinary person, but a notorious underworld boss, one of the top experts in the world.

Generally speaking, sound wave martial arts have a very wide range and are uncontrollable, affecting friend and foe alike. Yet, Boss Azure Dragon could control the sound waves, instantly crushing them onto a single person. Such control is unfathomable.

The Martial Dao has three realms: Technique, Sorcery, and Dao. The first realm of Technique is divided into nine grades. The mark of the third grade is "Microscopic," reaching the peak of self-control.

However, achieving Microscopic is easy, and controlling one's own flesh and True Qi is not difficult. But to achieve what Boss Azure Dragon has done, perfectly controlling even the sounds he emits, such a realm is simply horrifying.

Immediately, whether they could discern Boss Azure Dragon's method of killing or not, everyone fell silent. No one moved to collect the body. They all sat quietly, their eyes on their noses, their noses on their hearts.

Boss Azure Dragon seems very satisfied with everyone's reaction, as his method of killing a chicken to scare the monkeys has worked. No one will disturb him from now on.

Thus, Boss Azure Dragon continues, "I have invited you all here today to discuss a major event, to achieve our greatest goal."

"Our common goal?" someone asks doubtfully.

Boss Azure Dragon looks at him and laughs, "To pacify the universe, unify the Jianghu, sweep the cosmos, and bring all under heaven into one."

Boss Azure Dragon's words seemed to possess a certain magic, making blood boil, but everyone present trembled violently at that moment, solely because what Boss Azure Dragon said was far too audacious.

Within Boss Azure Dragon's words, there was a hint of wanting to flatten everything, not just to unify the Jianghu, but also to lay claim to the entire world.

"Boss Azure Dragon, are you asking us to rebel?" someone asked indignantly. Even though Boss Azure Dragon had appeared terrifying just moments ago, no one believed him at this moment, simply because this matter was utterly impossible.

In such a low-martial world, no matter how much martial arts reached the pinnacle, it could never contend against tens of thousands of troops. Even if Boss Azure Dragon was incredibly strong and his martial arts were exceptionally high, he could at most contend against a thousand or ten thousand men. If faced with tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, or even millions of troops, he could only end in regret.

Without reaching the Dao Embryo Realm, stepping into the domain of transcending the mortal and entering sainthood, no one in this world could oppose the power of a dynasty.

Therefore, when Boss Azure Dragon said he wanted to rebel, no one was optimistic. For the peerless heroes present, their greatest ambition was merely to unify the Jianghu.

"Boss Azure Dragon, you must be joking. This is not a joke one can make lightly." Apart from a select few, everyone else was indignant, not daring to believe it in the slightest.

Boss Azure Dragon seemed to have anticipated this situation long ago. He merely looked coldly at everyone, remaining silent. Only after everyone had finished their discussions did he speak again.
