Plundering the Heavens - Chapter 415

“Hurry and suppress it!”

The red dragon suddenly started to rebel and the Cleave Nails inside its body were steadily pushed out by its raw strength. Didn’t this mean all their effort up to now would be in vain? In their surprise, the Hentian elders redoubled their efforts to suppress the red dragon with the formation while the Head Exalt alongside another cultivator quickly flew over to push the Cleave Nails back inside with their cultivation power….

At that same moment, however, a snickering laugh came from above and something fell down.

“Who’s that above?” the Head Exalt called out in surprise. Someone had actually managed to fly above him without him noticing? Just who could do so?

The people below weren’t given much time to think before the object reached them. The Head Exalt reflexively waved out, and a crack sounded out as the object shattered and splattered all over the ground. A sweet scent began to rise, and when the head Exalt scrutinized it, he noticed a few broken egg shells beside some whites that had been greatly shaken and splattered in all directions. The three old cultivators who’d been guarding the area were also unable to evade in time, and egg whites were splattered onto their bodies as well….

“Aren’t you planning on ruling over all peril beasts?” a cold voice suddenly called from the sky. “I’ve brought them over for you….”

A blue mist dispersed, revealing a person riding atop a cloud. His slender physique was adorned in a grey robe, and he held a giant sword three times longer, wider, and thicker than an ordinary one. His body seemed to be covered in dried blood and muddy water, and although there were also some swollen portions and scratch wounds, his smile was extremely sly and proud—the kind of insolent smile that would make people who didn’t like him want to run up and bash his face on sight….

“Little bastard, did you do all this?” the Hentian clan master angrily shouted towards Fang Xing.

“F*ck you, you big bastard and you bunch of old bastards. So what if your little grandpa did all of this? A few old sh*ts that are older than turtle bastards, f*cking trying to take my stuff so shamelessly. I gave you the Spirit Essence and Shanbao Mountain, but it still isn’t enough and you want to have even my red dragon. This is my f*cking brother-in-law, you know? How dare you come and try to take it from me? If I don’t wipe out your entire Hentian clan today, you wouldn’t even know how many eyes Lord Hayagriva ¹ has! There are many lessons to be learned, and I will give them to you all in one go!”

Rude and coarse words fell from the sky above one after another. All the curses took Fang Xing less than three breaths of time, and the old cultivators all quickly jumped up in fury. After living for nearly a thousand years, since when had they been cursed at like this?

“How dare you bring such chaos to our Hentian clan, you little livestock!” The Hentian clan master was the first to react, and he let out an angry roar before grabbing towards Fang Xing. “Let me finish you off first….”

The five old seniors were too busy to deal with this bastard, leaving only the clan master free enough to deal with him. Despite being full of confidence his grab would snatch the boy, however, it actually failed; the pair of golden wings on Fang Xing’s back quickly flashed before he flew away. A blue fog rushed past and his body disappeared from view, leaving behind only a shout: “Big doggie, get up!”

……

Roar ….

The red dragon had been beyond excited to see Fang Xing, as though the injuries from the ten Cleave Nails had never happened in the first place. After hearing Fang Xing’s genuine voice with its own ears, how could it hold it all in anymore? It released a howl and started to thrash its giant body, and although its consciousness wasn’t clear enough for it to actually use any spells or techniques, a dragon’s body certainly wasn’t a joke. The power behind its full-strength thrashing was beyond imagination, causing the faces of the three old cultivators maintaining the suppressive formation to redden before becoming purple while their strength started to wane.

At the same time, before the clan master was able to clearly pinpoint Fang Xing’s existence, he suddenly heard a loud cry above him followed by a strong gust of wind. A peril bird several dozens of feet wide had spread its wings and started flying towards them at the back mountain, and its sharp gaze instantly glanced down to see broken egg shells and the three old cultivators covered in whites.

” GAH ….”

The peril bird let out an angry screech and the feathers on its neck even stood on end—it had confirmed its enemies.

BOOM ….

The peril bird swooped as though not even caring for its own life. Its giant body swept down from the sky, and the strong gust of wind that followed caused stone shards to fly all over the place. After getting just above the formation, the peril bird abruptly turned to its side and slammed its ten-foot-long, incredibly sturdy wing downwards to try to hit one of the elders covered in egg whites. The wing was far too large, however, and such an action caused the entire formation to shake and destabilize, followed by a loud bang as the light of the formation dimmed.

” Gck ….”

The three old cultivators in charge of the formation had already been working to their utmost limits, and the collision caused blood to fall from their mouths and exhaustion to show on their faces. The elder who’d been targeted was struck by the wing against his chest, causing him to let out a low growl amidst the sharp cracking sound of shattering bones. After he was flung away, he landed softly on the ground and lay still, unmoving.

“Second Clan Uncle…!” the clan master shouted, his gaze filled with hatred and surprise. This person had been at full mastery of Golden Core Stage, and his battle prowess was considered one of the top within the entire Guixu Ruins. His second clan uncle, how could… the clan master could hardly believe the scene in front of him.

As for the Head Exalt and another old cultivator holding a Cleave Nail in the center of the formation, they were also drawn into the attack. The surprise in their expressions hadn’t even faded before a sudden gust of powerful wind blew against their faces and the maddened peril bird’s sharp iron talons clawed out towards them. Neither of them dared to take the hit directly, and they both hastily flew to the sides.

With a bang , the peril bird’s claw smacked right against the formation and caused the entirety of it to shake. After being hit so many times, the formation that wasn’t being maintained suddenly shined a few times before dispersing into ash.

ROAR ….

The moment the red dragon felt a lightness over its body, it grew excited and let out a long roar. A great power rose within its swaying body, and the Cleave Nails in its flesh were all pushed back out with a few tzin tzin sounds before it crashed forward through the formation.

The head Exalt had just rushed down to avoid the peril bird’s attack, yet ended up being face to face with the dragon instead. “No, is it really all going to be for nothing?” he yelled before pressing both of his hands downward, causing core light to rush towards the red dragon’s head.

ROAR ….

The red dragon abruptly opened its mouth and breathed in. The dragon actually swallowed the light and reversed it within its stomach before opening its mouth again, and this time the light shot towards the Head Exalt like a Flying Sword.

BOOM !

After being struck with the light he himself had created, the Head Exalt was flung back until he slammed against a black stone a hundred feet away. The stone actually began to crack before quietly crumbling into pieces, and the Head Exalt leaned against the shattered stone while trying to regain his focus. Fresh blood started oozing from between his lips before he loudly spat out a mouthful of blood.

“You vile creature, how dare you do such a thing!” The other old cultivators flew forward with an enormous amount of force, but the moment their hands landed on the dragon’s body, they felt a violent power in response. They’d spent too much cultivation power trying to take the red dragon’s soul; they were physically and mentally drained, and they both subconsciously drew back after receiving such a strong response.

Swoosh !

The peril bird swooped down again, its two iron claws reaching towards one of the old cultivators while it used its metal-like beak to peck at another. It was hard to fault the peril bird considering both of them were covered in egg whites….

The red dragon was also extremely violent, but just as it was about to continue its rampage, Fang Xing’s voice rose up in its mind. There was a short moment of hesitation but it soon decided going over to Fang Xing was more important, and it shook its head and tail before flying off into the dark empty sky. Given how anxious it looked and how its tail swayed so joyously, it truly did seem like a…

“Big doggie!” Someone appeared in the air, and it was precisely Fang Xing. “Hurry and let me have a look. Did they make you cry?”

The red dragon sneezed in excitement before rushing to his side. It stuck out its large tongue and licked before it planted its head right into Fang Xing’s embrace, like a small child complaining about how they’d been wronged by others.

“Dammit, you’re a male, too, so what’s with all this sadness after only being hit by a few nails? Your uncle here had his face completely swollen by wasps. If such a handsome face were to be destroyed, who knows if your sister would still like me in the future….”

Fang Xing chided the dragon before flicking a Blood Lotus Seed into its mouth and flying up to sit atop its head. After a few moments of lamentation for his face, Fang Xing once again checked the red dragon’s body and confirmed its injuries weren’t as heavy as he thought they’d be—or perhaps the dragon’s body was much sturdier than expected? Finally reassured, he laughed and started patting the dragon’s head.

“Little bastard, where are you fleeing? I’m going to kill you today….”

Fang Xing turned towards the growlings and saw the clan master and another old cultivator chasing over at the peak of their anger. His gaze chilled before he sneered and said in a low voice, “You bastards are here, too. Big doggie, go have some fun….”

Roar ….

The red dragon’s eyes brightened when it heard this, and an indescribable viciousness began spreading out from within.
