Ignoring Chabu's resentment and unwillingness, Andrew struck out with a powerful palm, shattering half of Chabu's body.
"His physical body is even inferior to Highgod Artifact... It seems that the strength of one's physical body is indeed related to talent. The Elven race may have good talent in comprehending the Life Law, but their talent for physical body is too poor."
Andrew smiled coldly and once again used his Divine Power to create a cage, imprisoning Chabu.
As Chabu saw Andrew's palm strike coming, he felt the space around him freeze, making it impossible for him to dodge. Then, a terrifyingly powerful force came over, and even though he used his Life Divine Power to protect his entire body, it was still of no use.
"Is he really Asura? Why is he so powerful?" Chabu couldn't understand how an Asura could render him completely helpless. He knew that Andrew also possessed Offensive Sovereign Artifact...
With half his body Shattering, Chabu was only severely injured. His Life Divine Power rapidly overflowed from his body, and his Shattering body quickly recovered. However, he no longer had the energy of the Sovereign’s Might within him, and coupled with his injuries, he was powerless to break free from Andrew's Divine Power prison.
The thought of Andrew taking him to be a "gift" to the Four Divine Beasts Clan made Chabu tremble.
"No... absolutely not!"
Chabu's fists clenched, his eyes blazing with fury, blood trickling from the corner of his mouth. Suddenly, his aura surged wildly, his Life Divine Power coursing through him like a runaway horse. Andrew looked down and saw that Chabu in his cage seemed to have transformed into a tree...
"Bang!"
Inside Andrew's cage of Divine Power, Chabu suddenly self-destructed. In an instant, green specks of light flew wildly in the wind, scattering everywhere. Most of them entered Andrew's body, but had no effect on him whatsoever.
"What a fine Edric Clan."
Andrew's lips twitched, and with a slash of his right hand, he tore through space. The violent Spatial Turbulence swept away most of the light points, with the rest falling onto the mountain peaks below. He hadn't expected Chabu to be so resolute.
Shaking his head, Andrew didn't care. In any case, he had already delivered his gift to the Four Divine Beasts Clan by killing one of the Eight Great Clans ' ace fighters. Soon, he changed direction and headed towards the Skyrite Mountains.
By the time he caught up with the Metallic Lifeform controlled by Pusluo, the territory of the Four Divine Beasts Clan was already in sight.
Seeing Andrew return safely, Han Yue and the others breathed a sigh of relief. Andrew smiled and waved his hand, indicating that it was nothing.
To show his sincerity, Andrew stopped at the foot of the Skyrite Mountains and sent Dikor to deliver the message.
"Wow, is this the lair of the Four Divine Beasts Clan? Brother, look at that Azure Dragon statue, it's huge!" Ling'er looked up at the Dragon Path stretching for tens of thousands of miles in the distance and exclaimed in surprise.
Andrew also somewhat surprised. Putting everything else aside, just the Dragon Path winding around the Skyrite Mountains alone was enough to show the grandeur of the Four Divine Beasts Clan.
"This isn't a statue, but the Dragon Path of the Azure Dragon Clan. You see, all the other mansions and castles are built around the Dragon Path... The prototype of the Dragon Path is one of the ancestors of the Four Divine Beasts Clan — the Azure Dragon. Herbert, you have inherited the Azure Dragon Bloodline."
Andrew briefly explained the connection between Herbert and the Azure Dragon Clan. At that moment, hundreds of people flew down from the mountain. Leading them was a tall, blue-haired man with sharp eyes and a cold, stern face that was unforgettable at first glance.
Dikor stood somewhat awkwardly beside the blue-haired man.
The blue-haired man's appearance immediately drew everyone's attention, and Pusluo, standing beside Andrew, was eager to test his skills. This impulse was something Pusluo only showed when facing a truly powerful opponent.
Andrew narrowed his eyes slightly, his soul power already sensing the familiar aura emanating from the blue-haired man... That aura was somewhat similar to the first drop of Azure Dragon Essence Blood he had fused with, yet it was even stronger than the feeling Elder Bru had given him a hundred years ago.
A powerful aura of Azure Dragon, an imposing presence— the Azure Dragon Clan...
Needless to say, this person must be the patriarch of the Redding Clan — Gaiseresen Reading!
"It was him." Andrew was somewhat surprised, not expecting that Dikor would actually bring Gaiseresen along.
Gaiseresen flew down the mountain, surveyed the area, and finally fixed his gaze on Andrew. His usually aloof expression softened slightly, and his eyes showed a hint of warmth.
"Is this the Lord of the Bloodflame Prefecture? I am Gaiseresen of the Redding Clan. I have long admired your name!"
Andrew asked in surprise, " Clan Leader Redding, you are too kind. I have not Bloodflame Prefecture for a hundred years. How could I have such a name?"
Gaiseresen chuckled, "The auction held by the Lord a few years ago caused quite a stir, it's a pity my Four Divine Beasts Clan couldn't participate." He paused, then added, "I just heard from some members of my clan that the Lord seemed to have had a conflict with the Edric Clan on his way to the Skyrite Mountains?"
Andrew chuckled, "Indeed, Elder Chabu of the Edric Clan dared to offend me... I've already dealt with him."
"Resolved?" Gaiseresen asked cautiously, somewhat excitedly.
Andrew said, "That's right. Originally, I wanted to give him to the Four Divine Beasts Clan as a gift. However, Chabu had some courage and ultimately used a method to self-destruct his Divine Spark, which is a pity." He said it lightly, but Gaiseresen felt a little dumbfounded.
Using Chabu as a greeting gift?
At this moment, Gaiseresen was somewhat bewildered. He had previously heard from his subordinates that the Edric Clan's Chabu had led his men to approach the Skyrite Mountains and was fighting with someone. It wasn't until Dikor arrived that Gaiseresen learned that the other side of the battle was the Bloodflame Prefecture Mansion.
Now that he had met Andrew in person, Gaiseresen naturally wanted to inquire about the outcome of the battle, but Andrew's answer gave him a sense of unreality.
He actually killed Chabu!
Of course, Gaiseresen did not doubt Andrew's words; as the head of a prefecture, the other party would never lie on this matter. Moreover, the Four Divine Beasts Clan could certainly confirm Chabu's life or death.
Thinking about this, Gaiseresen's gaze towards Andrew changed.
"Your Excellency's strength is formidable; the Edric Clan has brought this humiliation upon themselves. Hahaha, on behalf of the Four Divine Beasts Clan, I accept this gift! Your Excellency, please!"
Andrew was very satisfied with Gaiseresen's attitude and immediately took his family and followed Gaiseresen up the mountain.
A group of people flew upwards along the Dragon Path, and soon arrived in front of a magnificent castle. This castle was built on the dragon's head, and from above, one could overlook the entire Skyrite Mountains, a truly spectacular sight.
"Please, Lord Lord!"
Gaiseresen ordered his men to prepare a banquet and personally entertained Andrew, showing him considerable respect. Andrew returned the favor with equal enthusiasm. At the same time, Andrew breathed a sigh of relief. Before coming, Andrew had worried that Gaiseresen, clinging to the glory of the Four Divine Beasts Clan, might be blind to reality. Now it seemed that under the onslaught of the Eight Great Clans, Gaiseresen's mind was quite clear.
The banquet was quickly prepared. Dozens of stone tables rose from the ground in the spacious area in front of the castle, and soon they were filled with all kinds of delicacies. Everyone sat down and began to enjoy the feast.
"Welcome, Lord!" Gaiseresen raised his glass warmly, and Andrew smiled and drank it. The atmosphere was great. Han Yue and Ling'er led the younger generation in enjoying the meal, Pusluo and Dikor were also busy. It must be said that as a powerful and influential family, the Four Divine Beasts Clan's banquet was far more upscale than Andrew's castle.
After a few rounds of drinks, Andrew put down his glass and said with a smile, " Clan Leader Redding, a hundred years ago, Chief Ers and Elder Bru visited me, and I told them about my connection with the Four Divine Beasts Clan..."
Gaiseresen nodded and said, "I didn't expect such a strange thing to happen, that someone could actually fuse with the Azure Dragon Essence Blood. However, I would like to know, where did the Lord's Azure Dragon Essence Blood come from?"
This was a question Gaiseresen had wanted to ask for a long time. Ever since the White Tiger Clan Leader and Elder Bru brought back the message, Gaiseresen had been wondering: even if the other party could fuse with the Azure Dragon Essence Blood, where did his Azure Dragon Essence Blood come from?
He considered that there was only one Azure Dragon Divine Beast in the world, and the Azure Dragon Essence Blood of the other party must have come from the Azure Dragon Sovereign. But this thought seemed somewhat absurd. If the Azure Dragon Sovereign hadn't perished, Andrew certainly wouldn't have been able to obtain the Azure Dragon Essence Blood, since essence blood was extremely important to Divine Beast. If he obtained the essence blood after the Azure Dragon Sovereign's demise, that was unlikely. The Azure Dragon and the other Four Divine Beasts had only been missing for a thousand years, and fusing essence blood required Deity-level.
As for Orloff, Uhtred used the Innate Divine Ability of the Four Divine Beasts through their Four Divine Beasts Essence Blood, which does not belong to the fusion of essence blood.
A thousand years, from the Saint-level to the Asura —that's simply impossible!
Andrew was silent for a moment, then sighed, " Clan Leader Redding, it was by chance that I obtained the Azure Dragon Essence Blood." As he spoke, he took out the Azure Dragon Ring.
Upon seeing the Azure Dragon Ring, Gaiseresen was completely stunned.
"This is... Father's Azure Dragon Ring, yes, yes..." Gaiseresen reached out and grabbed the ring, and Andrew didn't stop him. He knew what Gaiseresen was thinking.
" The Azure Dragon Ring is broken... Has Father really perished?" Despite not receiving any news of the Four Divine Beasts for a thousand years, Gaiseresen and the others still held onto a sliver of hope that the Four Divine Beasts were not dead, but merely missing. However, now, seeing the broken Azure Dragon Ring, Gaiseresen's last hope was shattered.
For him, this was like a bolt from the blue!
