Fairy Yuechan Slays the Sacred Giant Dragon with One Sword, Good-for-Nothing Yu Xiaogang Vomits Blood on the Spot (2, Please Subscribe)
Shi Hao carried Qian Renxue to a secluded corner outside the palace square. He gently placed her on a step, her graceful figure resembling a sleeping white swan.
Qian Renxue's long hair spilled over the steps like a golden waterfall, contrasting with the dark green floor. Her two snow-white legs dangled gently, like the purest jade carvings in heaven and earth.
Sunlight filtered through gaps in the leaves and fell upon her, accentuating the delicacy and luster of her skin. Her eyes trembled slightly, like a sleeping beauty about to awaken, inspiring tenderness in anyone who saw her.
Just then, Qian Renxue slowly opened her eyes. They were as pure as the sky, glittering with captivating light. Looking at the handsome yet imposing face before her, a trace of confusion and astonishment flashed through her eyes.
Qian Renxue's lips trembled slightly, and her voice was as melodious as heavenly music. "Who are you? Are you a disciple of Spirit Hall?"
Shi Hao gazed at her quietly, the corner of his mouth lifting into a faint smile. His smile carried confidence and dominance, as though everything was firmly under his control.
"More or less. At least, I used to be..."
"You used to be?"
Qian Renxue did not understand what the man in white meant. Her gaze shifted, and she suddenly saw vast numbers of Tiandou Empire soldiers rapidly rushing in from outside the square, numbering in the thousands.
Her delicate body trembled as she hurriedly grabbed Shi Hao's arm and said urgently, "This is bad. Take me back to Xue Ye's chambers immediately. Xue Ye must not be allowed to awaken. Xue Qinghe has to inherit the throne..."
Her voice carried determination and resolve, as if she was willing to pay any price for that goal.
Hearing this, Shi Hao smiled faintly. He slowly raised his hand and gently stroked Qian Renxue's cold, pale cheek. His fingers were as soft as a breeze and carried a hint of warmth as he said,
"There's no need, Qian Renxue. Just stay here and recover from your injuries. Xue Ye has already been controlled by my people. He should be brought here soon."
Qian Renxue had been breathing weakly, her face pale as paper and her eyes filled with exhaustion and helplessness. Yet when she heard Shi Hao's words, surprise and confusion flashed through her eyes.
She could not help but raise her head slightly to look at Shi Hao. Her voice trembled as she said, "What do you mean? Who exactly are you?"
Shi Hao smiled faintly, his expression radiating confidence and dominance. He slowly looked into the distance and said, "My name is Shi Hao, and I will soon become the Stone Emperor of the Tiandou Empire..."
His voice was low and magnetic, as though every word was filled with power.
"You want to fight me for the throne of the Tiandou Empire?"
Only then did Qian Renxue realize something was wrong. Her pupils suddenly contracted, and fear appeared on her face. She hurriedly tried to stand, but her injuries were too severe, and her body seemed to have lost all strength.
She spat out another mouthful of blood and collapsed weakly onto the cold ground, gasping for breath.
After resting for quite a while, Qian Renxue finally raised a hand to wipe the blood from the corner of her mouth. She said furiously, "Bastard, who exactly are you? Do you know that I spent twenty whole years lurking in the palace to seize the throne of the Tiandou Empire? I will never yield it to you."
Her voice was filled with determination and fury. Her cheeks flushed slightly with anger, and rage gleamed in her beautiful eyes, as though she wanted to glare straight through Shi Hao.
Her fingers clenched tightly, as though she was doing everything she could to control her emotions.
Shi Hao smiled faintly. Looking at the weakened Qian Renxue, he slowly said, "Qian Renxue, I know it hasn't been easy for you. So after I, Shi Hao, become the Human Emperor, you can choose any position in the palace you want. You can live in whichever of the dozens of halls in the harem you please. If you truly feel wronged, I can even make you my empress. After all, you were originally a woman..."
As he spoke, he gave Qian Renxue's beautiful legs a meaningful glance, as though expressing his approval of her.
That look made Qian Renxue even angrier. She gritted her silver teeth against her lower lip and could not help shouting, "In your dreams!"
At that moment, the enormous Sacred Giant Dragon in the sky also flew toward the area outside the square. Its entire body was golden, its dragon scales gleaming beneath the sunlight.
As it passed over Shi Hao and Qian Renxue, its gaze suddenly shifted. Its sharp dragon eyes fixed on the corner where Shi Hao and Qian Renxue were.
That glance seemed capable of seeing through one's soul. The giant dragon opened its mouth slightly and let out a majestic roar that made the surrounding air tremble.
Through the Sacred Giant Dragon, good-for-nothing Yu Xiaogang saw the weakened golden-haired girl, Qian Renxue, lying on the steps. A disgusting smile appeared on his face, and he immediately shouted, "That woman is over there! Sanpao, don't let her escape!"
Before his voice faded, the giant dragon had already changed direction, extending its enormous claws as it lunged toward the corner where Qian Renxue was.
At the same time, Liu Erlong saw the scene as well and asked in surprise, "Who is that young man in white?"
Good-for-nothing Yu Xiaogang thought for a moment and said, "He should be an accomplice of that fake crown prince, Xue Qinghe. It doesn't matter. Cripple them both first, then bring them back to Shrek Academy for interrogation."
After saying that, the golden Sacred Giant Dragon opened its massive jaws and roared as it charged toward the weakened Qian Renxue. The flames in its mouth seemed capable of reducing everything to ash, filling everyone with terror.
Just then, Shi Hao suddenly moved and stepped in front of Qian Renxue. He clenched both hands into fists as Soul Power surged within him, preparing to meet the giant dragon's attack.
He knew that in Qian Renxue's current state, if she was struck head-on by the Sacred Giant Dragon again, she would certainly not survive.
When the Sacred Giant Dragon opened its jaws and prepared to unleash that sky-piercing flame, Shi Hao threw out his fist without hesitation.
The force of his punch howled through the air. The surrounding air seemed to be swept into the currents stirred up by that fist, forming a massive vortex. At the same time, a faint golden radiance flashed over his fist.
Boom!
The flames collided with the force of his fist, producing an earth-shattering explosion.
The towering flames were instantly scattered by an invisible force, breaking apart into countless sparks that flew in all directions. At that moment, Shi Hao vanished from where he stood and appeared behind the giant dragon's head.
Although the Sacred Giant Dragon was enormous, its reactions were not slow. The moment its flames were dispersed, it realized that its attack had been cleverly neutralized.
It wanted to turn around and counterattack, but it was already too late. Shi Hao had already appeared behind its head.
Shi Hao's figure flashed, as though he had become a meteor. He crossed space in an instant and appeared above the giant dragon's head. His right fist clenched tightly as he slammed it viciously into the dragon's skull.
Bang!
Another deafening boom rang out. The giant dragon's entire head was knocked sideways by the punch, and its massive body trembled slightly from the force.
After landing the blow, Shi Hao did not linger. His figure flashed, and he had already retreated onto the roof of a distant hall.
After circling through the air once, the Sacred Giant Dragon finally locked onto Shi Hao's position again. It opened its jaws and let out a heaven-shaking roar before swinging its massive claws at Shi Hao once more.
This time, its attack was even fiercer. The claw wind howled, as though it could tear the entire hall apart.
Yet just then, a cold voice suddenly came from the distance. "A Sword From the West."
As the words fell, an aura of chilling slaughter instantly filled the air, as though even the temperature had dropped several degrees.
Everyone turned toward the source of the voice. From several hundred meters away, Fairy Yuechan gently raised the emerald-green longsword in her hand, its tip pointing straight ahead as she gathered power.
Fairy Yuechan wore a blue gauze dress, her long hair flowing freely and her features as exquisite as a painting. She floated silently in the sky, yet she seemed to become the center of the entire world, with all light gathering upon her.
The blade in her hand was translucent, its edge razor-sharp, and its tip gleamed with cold light, as though it could pierce through everything.
The next moment, Fairy Yuechan moved. She swung her longsword, and a brilliant streak of sword energy instantly slashed out, as though it would split the sky in two. Wherever the sword energy passed, the air itself was cut apart, emitting a piercing shriek.
Sensing the powerful sword energy, the Sacred Giant Dragon roared even more thunderously. It opened its huge jaws and spat out a torrent of blazing fire, attempting to block the sword energy.
However, the instant the sword energy collided with the flames, the flames were instantly extinguished, vanishing without a trace.
Immediately afterward, the sword energy slashed viciously across the Sacred Giant Dragon's body.
The Sacred Giant Dragon let out a miserable shriek, its entire body trembling violently in the air. Its scales shattered one after another beneath that single strike, turning into golden motes that filled the sky before instantly dispersing.
Pfft, pfft, pfft...
At the same time, good-for-nothing Yu Xiaogang, Liu Erlong, and the old bachelor Flender, who were performing the Martial Soul Fusion Skill, all spat out blood and collapsed backward weakly.
