Volume 3, Chapter 75 – The Demons Attacking the Northern Border

The northern front lines of the Westivian Covenant.

With the arrival of the Vassals of Sky monster horde, dark clouds churned and the heavens seemed ready to collapse at any moment.

High above, tens of thousands of Corrupted Beasts roared and howled, their fierce forms weaving and circling between the cloud layers. They released torrential curse power, with dark blue energy surging from their bodies, gathering into dense clusters of Abyss Hex Blasts that poured down like a tilting rain curtain, bombarding the Covenant Vanguard front lines with overwhelming force.

Compared to the Earth and Sea factions, the Vassals of Sky’s Abyss Hex Blasts were clearly much more powerful in both might and range.

“Boom!”

The protective shields of the front-line formations were instantly subjected to fierce bombardment, their radiance constantly trembling as the energy barriers twisted repeatedly.

However,

as the garrison forces brought out by the Lingyuan family, everyone naturally wouldn’t just sit there waiting for death. Fire platforms on the ground and in the air lit up one after another, missiles shot through the sky like swarms of bees, laser cannons pierced the heavens, precisely targeting the sources of curse power to launch counterattacks.

For a time, the sky became an Asura battlefield, with lasers and hex blasts interweaving, explosions ringing out endlessly, fire and thunder converging into an apocalyptic scene.

And in this chaotic battlefield of slaughter, a massive dark shadow quietly materialized from the clouds.

It was a giant dragon with its entire body burning with blood-red infernal flames, clad in charred black scales, with eyes flickering with the radiance of destruction.

Throughout its body, it emanated terrifyingly powerful curse power.

It descended silently above the battlefield, then suddenly opened its massive maw filled with sharp teeth. The air boiled from the intense heat as terrifying energy gathered madly in its mouth, condensing into a fireball as oppressive as a black sun.

Infernal breath swept across the entire field, causing countless soldiers’ hearts and souls to shatter with fear.

“Infernal Dragon King… wasn’t this guy crippled by Lord Luo Fei? How can he still gather such strong power?”

On the ground, General Vahid, responsible for field command, couldn’t help but suck in a cold breath, cold sweat sliding down from his temples.

On the other side,

as if sensing the fear of the humans below, a pleased look couldn’t help but overflow from the Infernal Dragon King’s vertical pupils.

Hmph,

troublesome insects…

Watch how this lord shatters your defense line with one breath!! All of you turn to charcoal for me!

“Abyss Hex – Infernal Breath”

In an instant, the energy in the Infernal Dragon King’s mouth began to surge even further.

However,

just as it was about to spew its breath of destruction, a crimson light like lightning shot violently from the distance, so fast it was nearly impossible to catch. That light streaked across the sky like a meteor, heading straight for the dragon’s head at an incredible speed. Just as the Infernal Dragon King’s mouth reached its opening limit, that crimson light suddenly flashed before it—

“Boom!”

“Who gave you permission to breathe?! Stinking lizard!”

Accompanied by icy words, a war fist condensed from crimson light violently struck the Dragon King’s lower jaw, directly slamming its opened dragon mouth shut!

?!!

Not good!!

The Infernal Dragon King’s massive body suddenly trembled.

The terrifying infernal breath hadn’t had time to be completely released before it exploded instantly in its mouth. Fire light burst from between its scales, shockwaves rampaged within its body, its eyes bulged high in an instant, and its blood-red pupils trembled from the intense pain.

“Boom——!!”

A heaven-shaking roar echoed in the air. The Infernal Dragon King’s head jerked backward violently, its entire dragon body tumbling in the air as infernal fire wildly leaked from between its mouth, nose, and scales.

It roared, its body spinning dizzily as it fell from mid-air, crashing through several cloud layers before slamming heavily into the ground.

Although the Infernal Dragon King stood up from the ground while panting, its aura was already in complete chaos, the curse power within its body rampaging as if suffering backlash.

But even so,

the Infernal Dragon King’s fighting spirit hadn’t diminished in the slightest, instead using fierce and violent eyes to stare deadly at what lay ahead.

“Damn brat…”

At this moment,

under the Infernal Dragon King’s hateful gaze,

crimson light stood firm against the wind, a tall figure descending from the sky, arriving directly in front of the Infernal Dragon King.

With Luo Fei’s landing, hundreds of Corrupted Beasts that had originally wanted to assist the Infernal Dragon King in attacking Luo Fei also fell from the sky.

Accompanied by astonished cheers from the Covenant Vanguard soldiers behind him, Luo Fei looked up at the infernal giant dragon that had just awkwardly risen, his eyes showing no emotion whatsoever, only blade-like coldness.

“Still alive? What tenacious vitality.”

“Damn brat!! Don’t get carried away!”

The Infernal Dragon King roared in fury.

As a vassal of Lord Ulutiel, a Dragon King at the peak of Divine Departure Realm, aside from that damned Black Witch, no one had ever looked down on him like this.

Angry as he was, the Infernal Dragon King had to admit,

this guy called Luo Fei…

was indeed not to be underestimated.

His strength was far superior to the other Celestial Augur Knights of the Westivian Covenant.

But so what if he was strong?!! This lord is a Dragon King under Lord Ulutiel!! What right does a human like you have to defeat me!!

Being suppressed by Luo Fei twice in a row had already crazily stimulated the Infernal Dragon King’s self-esteem.

The giant dragon lowered its head and roared, terrifying infernal fire burning fiercely once again.

“Roaaaar!!”

Facing the howling air waves coming his way, Luo Fei’s eyes narrowed slightly as he silently drew the sword from his waist.

Under the enhancement of crimson spiritual power, the sword body emanated powerful fluctuations, causing even the surrounding space to begin trembling.

“Defeated opponent… since you insist on seeking death, then I’ll send you on your way.”

However, just as both sides’ auras climbed steadily and tensions reached the breaking point, a magnetic yet bone-chilling voice quietly drifted into the ears of the dragon and human.

“Zhuzhu, that’s enough. Didn’t I say? After this person comes out, leave the rest to me.”

With these words entering their ears,

the massive flame giant dragon suddenly trembled throughout its body, a trace of fear flashing through its vertical pupils.

“Hmm?”

Hearing this, Luo Fei also directed his gaze toward the sky above.

“Who are you?”

At this moment,

under Luo Fei’s grave gaze,

a man dressed in black windbreaker with black and white streaked long hair, carrying a terrifying aura, slowly descended from the air surrounded by pitch-black curse power.

When he landed in front of the Infernal Dragon King, this massive Dragon King couldn’t help but retreat several steps continuously.

Facing Luo Fei’s questioning, the black-clothed man placed one hand on his chest and very respectfully bowed to Luo Fei.

“Greetings, head of the Lingyuan family. My name is Zhulan, one of the attendants serving my king. It’s an honor to meet you.”

Speaking thus,

his dark blue eyes under the mask swept coldly toward the Infernal Dragon King behind him.

Although Zhulan didn’t speak, after being swept by that gaze, the trembling Infernal Dragon King suddenly spread its wings and retreated toward the rear, leaving Luo Fei to the black-clothed man.

Witnessing this scene,

Luo Fei’s pupils narrowed slightly.

An attendant?

Compared to the Infernal Dragon King who had just been wildly releasing curse power, this attendant called Zhulan was much weaker in terms of aura. Of course, Luo Fei wouldn’t underestimate his opponent because of this…

After all,

in many film and television works from his previous life, these seemingly gentle and polite humanoid fellows… were far more powerful than monsters like the Infernal Dragon King who only knew how to release brute force.

“Ulutiel’s attendant?”

While vigilantly watching his opponent, Luo Fei said coldly:

“The main Vassals of Sky forces all went to attack the Kingdom of Qingyun, yet you still sent people here. Your evil god lord really can’t let go of this front-line defense. And to actually send you? You really think highly of us. Zhulan, right? Your strength and status… are higher than those Five Dragon Kings among the Vassals of Sky, aren’t they?”

“Why do you say that?”

“The Infernal Dragon King is so afraid of you—isn’t that obvious? Besides, the curse power content in your body… is much higher than the Infernal Dragon King’s.”

“How perceptive, Lord Luo Fei. Truly worthy of being the Covenant’s number one Celestial Augur Knight.”

Clapping his hands, Zhulan said with some surprise.

Humans who could see through the curse power within his body—Zhulan had only met two before.

And Luo Fei was the third.

“You came to attack for Ailiya and the others, right?”

Luo Fei questioned displeasedly.

“To be honest, that’s not the case.”

“Hmm?”

Luo Fei’s brow immediately furrowed.

“We’re only following our king’s orders to assist our collaborator.”

“Assist? Collaborator? What do you mean?”

“The specifics are something you don’t need to know. In any case, before our collaborator achieves their goal, I must trouble Lord Luo Fei to stay here for a little while longer.”

“You want to stall me?!”

“Precisely so.”

The corners of his mouth under the mask turned up slightly, and chains constructed of black and white energy instantly released from beneath Zhulan’s feet, howling toward Luo Fei…
