Half an Earth Dragon's Body

Gaa!

A loud crow's cry echoed from the sea of fire burning in the sky. The next moment, a giant Fire Crow, nearly ten feet in size and engulfed in golden-red flames, burst out of the fire like a giant fireball, crashing directly into the ground where the half- Earth Dragon had fled.

Boom! Rumble...

The violent explosion blasted a crater several meters deep into the ground. The blazing flames burned the soil and rocks in the crater into lava. The violent explosion also caused the earth to tremble and shake in all directions, almost making it seem like another Earth Dragon was about to strike.

However, despite the fact that Ya Zhaoying had launched a pursuit immediately and that the golden- Fire Crow's attack power was formidable, the shattered crater still did not contain the corpse of the Earth Dragon, nor even a trace of flesh or blood.

This means that the half- Earth Dragon eventually escaped from underground, Ya Zhaoying was unable to completely kill it or leave it behind.

Awooo! Roar! Cry...

At this moment, with one of the two Third Tier Demon Race dead and the other seriously injured, the remaining thousands of Demon Beast, demon birds, and Demon Race hiding in the ruins of "Demon-Suppressing Pass" panicked.

The next moment, several roars, howls, and shrieks suddenly rang out from among the thousands of Demon Beast and birds, as if Demon Beast demon Demon Race hidden among them were issuing commands.

Immediately, the remaining thousands of Demon Beast and birds in the ruins of "Demon-Suppressing Pass" scattered and began to flee in groups of three or five to various directions outside "Demon-Suppressing Pass".

Meanwhile, the Demon Race hiding among them took this opportunity to blend into the various fleeing Demon Beast and birds. They disguised themselves as ordinary Demon Beast, and unless they directly engaged in combat, Kong Wenxuan and the others would have no way to distinguish or pursue the fleeing Demon Race.

Especially since these Demon Beast and birds scattered into dozens or even hundreds of small groups and fled in different directions, no matter how powerful Kong Wenxuan's "Five Elements Divine Swords" was, he could only chase and kill a dozen or so scattered groups of Demon Beast. It was impossible for him to kill all the fleeing Demon Beast and birds, let alone wipe out the Demon Race hidden among them.

"Young warriors of the Ya Household, form a formation and hunt down the Demon Beast!"

At this moment, the sea of fire in the sky had completely subsided, revealing the figure of Ya Zhaoying. The "Fire Crow Divine Fire Shield" that had enveloped her had disappeared, and a pair of fiery crow wings were still outstretched on her back, allowing her to fly in the air and issue commands.

"Yes!"

"Yes, sir!"

The remaining capable cultivators of the "Fire Crow" Ya Household immediately responded to the order, dispersing and forming teams. Led by several Foundation Establishment cultivators, they led their "Fire Crow Dao Soldiers" in pursuit of the scattered Demon Beast and birds.

Upon seeing this, Kong Wenxuan immediately summoned his "Feather Boat" and, along with his third aunt, eldest brother, and others, set off to pursue the scattered Demon Beast and birds.

In this situation, the extent of our gains depends on how many Demon Beast and birds we manage to hunt down.

Half a day later, Kong Wenxuan, along with his third aunt, eldest brother, and others, ended their pursuit of the scattered Demon Beast and birds, and returned to the ruins of "Demon-Suppressing Pass" with the corpses of the hundreds of demonic Demon Beast and birds they had killed and the materials they had collected.

Unfortunately, along the way they killed more than a dozen groups of scattered Demon Beast and birds, and nearly two hundred Demon Beast and birds, including two Second Tier Demon Beast, but they did not find a single Demon Race.

It's unclear whether those Demon Race escaped by blending in with other fleeing Demon Beast and birds, or if they used some other method to escape. Were these scattered Demon Beast groups merely pawns used to distract Kong Wenxuan and the others?

When they returned to the ruins of "Demon-Suppressing Pass", Kong Wenxuan and the others found that the cultivators and Fire Crow Dao Soldiers who had chased after the Du Household had also returned and were tidying up the ruins in "Demon-Suppressing Pass".

Looking at the ruins of the city, littered with the corpses of numerous Demon Beast and birds, Kong Wenxuan felt a pang of emotion.

Their purpose in coming here was to rescue the tens of thousands of ordinary people who had been abducted and tortured by the Demon Race, and incidentally to promote the name of their "Peacock" Kong Household.

However, things took an unexpected turn.

The tens of thousands of ordinary people who were kidnapped and abused were directly swallowed by the Earth Dragon -Third Tier Demon Race Earth Dragon, turning into Flesh and Blood Sludge that attacked and severely injured Ya Zhaoying and the Ya Household cultivators, giving them no chance to rescue them.

As a result, of the nineteen Bloodline Lineage in Cuckoo County that were breached and destroyed by the Demon Beast horde and Demon Race, except for the "Hummingbird" Feng Household, who were saved by the Kong Household from hundreds of ordinary people, the other eighteen Bloodline Lineage were basically wiped out.

If these eighteen Bloodline Lineage do not arrange for other clansmen or a way out outside, they will be considered extinct from this point onward.

If their "Peacock" Kong Household hadn't been fortunate enough to successfully Star Inlaying and advance to the level of a "Ninth-Grade True Spirit" Lineage, with the "Peacock True Spirit Star" suppressing and restraining the Demon Race, then this time, with the Demon Beast tide and the Demon Race breaking through the pass and wreaking havoc in Cuckoo County, their Kong Household would probably have been completely wiped out, or even extinct, just like those dozen or so Bloodline Lineage.

In this "True Spirit Realm," the various "True Spirit Lineage" are high above, even with the Golden Crow and the Great Sun shining in all directions. But for these lower-level Lineage and cultivators, it is undoubtedly still full of danger.

Now, the Kong Household just ascended to the position of "Ninth-Grade True Spirit," which means they have some initial ability to protect themselves, but there is still a long way to go.

With these thoughts swirling in his mind, Kong Wenxuan stepped forward to pay his respects to Ya Zhaoying.

Ya Zhaoying saw him, she nodded and said, "You deserve the most credit for breaking through the traps and ambushes set by the Demon Race this time, and my promise to you remains unchanged."

"Your Kong Household can choose this ' Demon-Suppressing Pass ' as your foothold, expand outwards, and establish your own ' Kong Household Peacock County Seat.'"

"Or perhaps, if your Kong Household chooses another target for expansion, I can lend a hand for your Kong Household!"

"Thank you, senior!" Kong Wenxuan immediately bowed in thanks, then said, "However, I am not sure how to choose. I need to go back and discuss it with my clansmen."

Ya Zhaoying nodded and said, "It's alright, my promise always stands. Just let me know when your Kong Household has discussed it and made a decision."

As he spoke, Ya Zhaoying waved his hand, and a ball of flame flew out, transforming into a fiery rope. He bound the half-destroyed corpse of Third Tier Earth Dragon on the ground not far away, pulled it closer, and said, "Young friend Kong, this half-destroyed Earth Dragon corpse belongs to your Kong Household. Consider it my token of gratitude."

"This..." Kong Wenxuan immediately declined, saying, "Senior has already made a promise, and this Earth Dragon's corpse was severed and killed by Senior. It should be Senior's spoils of war, and I dare not accept such a favor."

Ya Zhaoying waved her hand and said, "A promise is a promise, and gratitude is gratitude. If it weren't for your speed and efficiency in killing those Demon Beast, I might have really perished here. You saved me, so this gratitude is only right."

Without giving him a chance to refuse further, Ya Zhaoying gestured over half of the ruins of "Demon-Suppressing Pass" and said, "The Demon Beast, Demon Race corpses, materials, and other spoils on the ground in this half of the city also belong to your Kong Household."

Seeing this, Kong Wenxuan knew that the other party had made up their mind, so he could not refuse any longer. Besides, whether it was the corpse of the half- Third Tier Demon Race Earth Dragon, or the half-city of demon Demon Beast, Demon Race corpses, and materials, they were all rare treasures for the Kong Household, which had just been promoted to the "Ninth-Grade True Spirit" Lineage.

He was indeed envious of the fact that it would allow the Kong Household to have a smoother and easier start as a "Ninth-Grade True Spirit" Lineage.

So he didn't refuse anymore, but solemnly bowed to the other party and said, "Thank you for your care, senior. The junior and the Kong Household will remember it."

Ya Zhaoying waved her hand dismissively, saying nothing more.
