Immortal Path to Heaven Novel - Chapter 1157
Chapter 1157: Arrived Safely
With that, Ou Yangming chased while the Horned Dragon King fled in the air. The people on the flying boat watched with their mouths agape. The young fellow who looked serious actually had such terrifying strength. Even the Horned Dragon King was no match for him.
“He’s too powerful…”
Many people’s hearts trembled. At the same time, they felt relieved. If nothing unexpected happened, they were safe.
The second brother among the Starry Sky Hunters also looked straight at the sky.
As for the big brother, he wiped the sweat off his head. The young fellow who had been ridiculed twice by his second younger brother turned out to be so fearsome.
“Second Young Brother, apologize to sir later.”
“I understand.” The bald second brother’s emotions were fluctuating.
He had mocked such a powerful person twice in a row. Fortunately, the young fellow did not take it to heart. Otherwise, who knew how many times the 7 of them would have died?
“A loose tongue causes a lot of trouble!”
The second brother wished he could slap himself.
In the air, the Horned Dragon King desperately dodged. Even so, it was still in danger because Ou Yangming possessed the law of time.
After about 8 minutes, the Horned Dragon King was covered in blood. Dragon blood flowed out freely. His tough body had several holes pierced by the Reincarnation Spear.
“Stop!”
The Horned Dragon King roared and quickly left. If this continued, he might be killed. He had forgotten how long it had been since he felt this way.
He was entangled by this human fellow and did not even have the chance to escape.
Ou Yangming stepped in the air and stopped.
The Horned Dragon King’s eyes were filled with fear. He looked at Ou Yangming and asked, “How about we stop here?”
“How about we stop?” Ou Yangming smiled then decisively shook his head. He uttered in a deep voice, “No!”
He was very decisive. If he was just an ordinary person, he would have been swallowed by the dragon. Now that he had the absolute advantage, how could he end this so easily?
“What exactly do you want?”
The Horned Dragon King was no longer confident, and his voice was much softer. Taking advantage of this opportunity, he quickly took a breath and stabilized the wounds on his body.
Ou Yangming did not care about the dragon’s petty actions. He had not used his full strength yet. Even if the dragon recovered to his peak condition, he would not take it to heart.
He stared at the horned dragon and asked indifferently, “Since it’s a battle of life or death, it’s only right for us to fight to life or death. What do you think?”
“No!”
The Horned Dragon King refused without any hesitation.
A battle of life or death? If the Horned Dragon King had not seen Ou Yangming’s strength, he would have happily destroyed him. Now, he knew he could not do that. He knew if he had to fight for life or death, there would be a 90% chance that he would end up being killed.
The Horned Dragon King roared angrily, “I can promise you that I won’t hurt anyone, but you have to let me off this time. We don’t owe each other anything, after all. The space here is unstable. If I self-explode, the spaces nearby will collapse, and everyone will die. Even you might not be able to escape.”
He was not spouting nonsense. The nearby star areas did not have Teleportation Formations because the spaces were unstable. If he self-exploded and accidentally caused the spaces to collapse, everything around would be destroyed.
The Horned Dragon King would never do that unless it was absolutely necessary.
“Besides, I have the Dragons behind me. If you kill me, the Dragons won’t let you off!”
The Horned Dragon King once again threw out his trump card.
There was only one reason for this. He lacked confidence and did not want to die.
“Do you have a good relationship with the Dragons?” Ou Yangming asked while he pondered.
“Of course. I rule the Drakes in the Humans’ territory, so I’m close to the Dragons,” the Horned Dragon King said in a deep voice.
“Have you met the dragon emperor then?” Ou Yangming asked again.
The Horned Dragon King did not understand why Ou Yangming asked that. After thinking for a while, he answered, “I met him by luck once.”
Ou Yangming grinned. “If that’s the case, you must recognize this token, right?”
The young fellow took out a token from the Long Feather Band and showed it to the Horned Dragon King. This was given to him by the dragon emperor before he left the 10,000 Dragons Valley. It represented his identity as the Dragons’ Honorary Elder.
“That’s…”
The Horned Dragon King’s pupils contracted. He looked at the token with shock. The token released an immense pressure that made him feel like he wanted to submit.
It was worth noting that the Aura on the token belonged to the dragon emperor. The owner of the token represented a great elder of the Dragons. They were the real Dragons and were not something that the Drakes could compare to.
“You…” The horned dragon felt like a fishbone stuck in his throat. He was so stunned that he was lost for words.
The Drakes did not have a high status among the Dragons. Due to their bloodlines, even if their strengths were similar to that of the elders of the Dragons, the difference in their statuses was huge.
“Get lost! Find a place to seal yourself for 500 years. If I hear news of your appearance within 500 years, I’ll kill you for sure!”
Ou Yangming withdrew the token and turned around to leave.
“Yes…”
The horned dragon lowered his head to indicate that he had submitted. After seeing the token, he no longer dared to resist.
In terms of strength, the dragon was not a match for Ou Yangming. In terms of status, the young fellow was an elder of the Dragons, so he could not compare to the fellow at all.
After Ou Yangming had left, the Horned Dragon King raised his head. His body trembled, and he disappeared into the void.
Ou Yangming did not kill the Horned Dragon King mainly because of the relationship between the horned dragon and the Dragons. 500 years was considered a long time.
“He’s finally gone!”
Everyone on the giant flying boat heaved a sigh of relief. They looked at Ou Yangming, who had returned, with admiration on their faces.
The matter that even the Heavenly Star Mansion could not solve was easily solved by this young fellow. Due to the distance, no one knew about the conversation between Ou Yangming and the Horned Dragon King, but they could see how miserable the dragon was when he was being pursued.
It was evident that the young fellow was even stronger than the Horned Dragon King.
Ou Yangming landed on the deck, and a few Starry Sky Hunters walked over quickly. They said in unison, “Thank you, sir, for saving us. We brothers will never forget this.”
The Horned Dragon King had come for them. If it were not for Ou Yangming, they would have died without a doubt, and it would have also implicated others.
“Second Brother, hurry up and apologize.”
The leader of the hunters gave his second younger brother a look. The bald man who had mocked Ou Yangming before took a step forward and expressed anxiously, “Thank you, sir, for saving our lives. I was rude before, so I’m willing to be at your disposal.”
“Forget it.” Ou Yangming glanced at them and said, “Just don’t be arrogant in the future. You have me this time, but you might not be so lucky the next time.”
“We’ll definitely keep it in mind,” the men quickly responded
The others also quickly thanked him. Soon, the giant flying boat took off. Fortunately, the previous battle did not have much effect on the boat.
After half a month, the giant flying boat steadily landed on a small island in the Zhenwu Continent.
In the distance was the city. Everyone did not rest on the island. After leaving the flying boat, they flew toward the city in front.
After Zhang Suixian and Jianjia alighted from the boat, there was a luxurious dragon boat waiting for them. After bidding farewell to Ou Yangming, they disappeared into the horizon on the dragon boat.
“Lord Zhang, who was that young fella?” On the dragon boat, a middle-aged man wearing a long robe asked with a smile.
As an attendant of the Mystic Sky Sect’s outer sect, he knew the identities of the little girl and Zhang Suixian. He was a little curious why they were so polite to a young fellow.
Zhang Suixian answered calmly, “That young fella isn’t simple.”
Liu Quan was a little surprised. “For that young fella to receive such an evaluation from you, Lord Zhang, he must be a dragon among men. How does he compare to the direct disciples of the Mystic Sky Sect?”
Zhang Suixian shook his head. “There’s no comparison between them.”
When Liu Quan heard this, he thought that the young fellow could not compare to the direct disciples of the Mystic Sky Sect. This was not surprising. After all, the direct disciples of the Mystic Sky Sect were elites of the Humans. As one of the Humans’ top 3 sects, the influence of the Mystic Sky Sect was unquestionable.
Liu Quan laughed. “That’s true. It’s too difficult for an ordinary young fella to compare with the elites of the Mystic Sky Sect.”
“Attendant Liu, I didn’t mean that.” Zhang Suixian frowned. The man had misinterpreted his meaning.
Liu Quan was stunned. ‘Was I mistaken?’
Jianjia opened her bright eyes, then she shook her head and said, “How could the direct disciples of the Mystic Sky Sect be qualified to compare to Ou Yangming? Uncle Zhang said that even my father wasn’t as powerful as Ou Yangming when he was young!”
Who was this little girl’s father? He was the son of a formidable figure from the Mystic Sky Sect, a top genius who suppressed an era. Now, he was the master of a first-class force, the Heavenly Star Mansion. Yet, the little girl said that such a legendary figure could not be compared to the young fellow just now. What kind of joke was this?
“Miss Jianjia, you think too highly of that person. Your father’s talent is rarely seen throughout 10,000 years. No one can compare to him.”
Liu Quan thought it was a joke from the little girl. Who knew, Zhang Suxian also said, “Jianjia’s right. That young fella’s the most potential I’ve ever seen. I’m not sure about his future growth, but the mansion master couldn’t be compared to him when he was young.”
“Lord… Lord Zhang, you’re not joking?” Liu Quan stuttered. He thought it was just a joke, so he did not expect it to be serious.
“Do you think I’d joke about the mansion master?” Zhang Suixian’s voice was a bit sharp.
Liu Quan’s heart froze. Zhang Suixian was a loyal servant of the Heavenly Star Mansion and the most trusted subordinate of the mansion master. He would not joke around like this.
The attendant hurriedly said, “Lord Zhang, please don’t blame me. I was just too surprised. I didn’t expect such a genius to exist.”
Liu Quan narrowed his eyes and asked, “Such a genius should be recruited into our sect. Why don’t we go back?”
Zhang Suixian shook his head. He sighed and said, “If there was a chance, the Heavenly Star Mansion would have already recruited him. That young fella isn’t an unpolished gem. He has already matured…”
