"No! I want to fight alongside the city lord and my father!"
"Xiao Long, even the three of us together are no match for the Monster Legion and the Heaven-Earth Alliance Leader. Rather than all getting captured, we should keep hope alive."
"That's right, son. Hurry and go. The city lord and I will hold off the Heaven-Earth Alliance Leader."
"All right, City Lord. Rest assured, I'll deliver the Divine Beast Egg to the young master."
"Good. Remember, you must give it to Wentian. It's our last hope. Now go!"
After those few instructions, Xiao Long immediately flew toward the city. When the Heaven-Earth Alliance Leader saw him leave, he called out.
"Hmm? Fierce Yama."
"At your command."
"Follow that Divine Weapon Beast and see where he's going. While you're at it, see if you can capture any other important figures."
"Other important figures? Alliance Leader, isn't Nangong Yi right here? Who else is there?"
"Idiot! Nangong Yi has two children, Nangong Wentian and Nangong Wenya. I told you to read the intelligence reports, but you didn't. You don't even know that!"
"Oh, so that's it."
Watching Fierce Yama's expression of sudden enlightenment, the Heaven-Earth Alliance Leader's face twitched. Why did this subordinate seem a little unreliable?
"Stop thinking, idiot! Keep thinking and he'll get away."
"Ah! Oh, oh, oh! Rest assured, Alliance Leader. I'll definitely capture Nangong Wentian and his sister!"
With that, Fierce Yama set off after Xiao Long. Seeing Fierce Yama chase Xiao Long, the Jade Spirit Dragon moved to intercept him, only to be blocked by the Monster Legion.
The battle now stood at two versus who knew how many.
"Heaven-Earth Alliance Leader, as long as I, Nangong Yi, am still standing here, you can forget about taking Nangong City!"
"That's right! As long as the city lord and I are here, you won't take Nangong City!"
Hearing Nangong Yi and the Jade Spirit Dragon's words, the Heaven-Earth Alliance Leader burst out laughing.
"Hahahahahaha! Hahahahahaha! Nangong Yi, don't tell me you think you can stop me all by yourself! How naive! I'll show you Tiger Soul's true power!"
"Tiger Soul, demonize!"
"As you command, Alliance Leader."
At those words, Tiger Soul released a red gas that enveloped the Jade Spirit Dragon.
"Jade Spirit Dragon!"
Seeing the Jade Spirit Dragon surrounded by the gas released by the Heaven-Earth Alliance Leader, Nangong Yi tried to rush over, but his way was blocked.
Before long, the gas dispersed. The Jade Spirit Dragon had changed, becoming a Demon Beast, and came before the Heaven-Earth Alliance Leader.
"The Jade Spirit Dragon pays respects to the Alliance Leader."
The Heaven-Earth Alliance Leader burst out laughing.
"Hahahahahaha! Hahahahahaha! Nangong Yi, did you see that? The Jade Spirit Dragon has become my subordinate!"
"Damn it!" Nangong Yi hadn't expected the Heaven-Earth Alliance Leader to be able to turn divine beasts directly into Demon Beasts.
The Heaven-Earth Alliance Leader said, "Jade Spirit Dragon, go and capture Nangong Yi for me!"
"Yes, Alliance Leader."
At those words, the Demonized Jade Spirit Dragon flew toward Nangong Yi, who could only dodge.
"Jade Spirit Dragon, don't you recognize me? It's me, Nangong Yi!"
"Hahahahaha! Nangong Yi, stop wasting your breath. My demonization can't possibly be undone!"
"Jade Spirit Dragon, stop wasting time. Hurry up and capture him!"
"Yes."
Seeing that his calls had no effect, Nangong Yi could only maneuver around his opponent. But skill couldn't bridge the gap in strength, and he was soon captured.
"Hahahahaha! Nangong Yi, you can become my subordinate too!"
With that, he released smoke that enveloped Nangong Yi. Before long, it dispersed, and Nangong Yi spoke.
"I pay my respects to the Alliance Leader."
"Excellent! From this moment on, Nangong City is my domain! Hahahahahaha! Hahahahahaha..."
Meanwhile, Yun Tian, who was staying in the Alternate Space, had watched the entire process of the Heaven-Earth Alliance Leader taking Nangong City.
"As expected of the Heaven-Earth Alliance Leader. That laugh... probably only the Dark Fairy from Balala the Fairies could rival it."
"Nangong Yi has some strength, but not much. Just a little. He was already weaker than the Heaven-Earth Alliance Leader, and he didn't even have a divine weapon. It would've been strange if he hadn't lost. Forget it. What's it got to do with me? I'm just here to watch the show. Besides, nobody dies in the cartoon anyway. Time to go see our protagonist's first battle."
"Destroy!"
