Long Qianying’s icy gaze still held a hint of vigilance.
She didn’t trust Long Yunfan.
"Let go."
Ye Tianling said coldly.
He didn’t hate Long Qianying, but he didn’t have any favorable impression of her either.
As for Long Yunfan, he was even less interested.
Right now, he was indeed very weak, but he hadn’t fallen so low as to need Long Qianying’s protection!
Long Qianying didn’t let go. Instead, she held onto Ye Tianling even tighter.
Long Yunfan also imdiately ca over, guarding him from the other side.
"I was the one who slaughtered those mbers of your Dragon Race! I used my Void Body to shatter Yao Yusu’s Sound Killing Law and crushed your clansn. What a miserable death they had, instantly exploding into clouds of blood mist. Among them were your brothers and sisters."
Ye Tianling’s tone grew even colder.
Long Qianying’s delicate body trembled.
Long Yunfan’s advance also faltered for a mont, but he quickly resud following.
Long Qianying didn’t let go.
Long Yunfan didn’t give up on defending and protecting him either.
"You dragons are truly shaless, disgusting, and utterly despicable!"
Ye Tianling berated them again.
Long Qianying’s face turned slightly pale, but she didn’t make a sound.
"Yes... Only now do I realize that we are indeed that despicable. You’re right."
Long Yunfan sighed. At the sa ti, he raised his head and looked into the void.
Over there, the figure of the Taotie Divine Beast had already materialized.
"Let go. Otherwise, you’ll drag down, and you’ll be beaten to death as well."
Ye Tianling’s tone was indifferent.
When he realized that despite his verbal insults, Long Qianying and Long Yunfan were dead set on protecting him, he knew that after this heavy blow, regardless of what others thought, these two had already acknowledged him.
It was a very ironic, yet also very normal, course of action.
The irony lay in the life-and-death slaughter and the resulting hatred.
The normality lay in the fact that this was a world where the strong were revered, and the Dragon Race, in particular, held the strong in especially high esteem!
They would especially prostrate themselves in worship and awe before a powerhouse who was related to them by blood and also possessed so brilliant qualities.
In the previous battle, he had, after all, swept away the Dragon Race’s pride, shattered their legacy, beaten Yao Yusu to death, and even devoured the so-called Taotie Divine Son alive...
This would be a lifelong mory, branded indelibly upon the depths of their Dragon Souls.
And this wasn’t about Long Qianying and Long Yunfan being shaless or despicable.
It was simply due to the nature of the Dragon Race, their dignity and pride, and a form of ’unity’ that erged when the race faced a crisis of ’extinction’.
It was laughable.
And also pathetic.
"You’re too weak right now. It’s impossible for you to win. Don’t try to act tough."
Long Qianying’s voice was cold, but compared to her usually frigid disposition, this was already considered extrely gentle.
"That’s right. Our instincts tell us that you... no longer pose a mortal threat to us. Therefore, you can’t win. You are a Divine Child. Even if you’re completely crippled now, your recovery is just a matter of ti. As for us... we have our value, but compared to you, we’re nothing."
Long Yunfan sighed softly.
"Starting with the emotional appeals and reasoning now?"
Ye Tianling sneered.
Long Qianying gently shook her head and said softly, "The Qingzhuo Saintess is actually a good person. Long Fengyang is a bastard, but Ye Fengyang is also a Saint Master of the Dragon Race, a mber of the Dragon Race. The only ones who wronged you were a few people, and thousands have already paid for it with their lives. Did you know that among them were clan brothers and sisters who were very good to Tianyu and Tianmo?
But that doesn’t matter. When a crisis befalls the Dragon Race, the first principle is to determine life and death by value. Your value is high, so you should live. Compared to you, our value is low, so we should die!"
As Long Qianying spoke, she added, "In a mont, refine into a Void Body. I have already comprehended the Nine Forbidden Barriers. The Dragon Race cannot be without a master for even a day, so you should take the position of Cyan Dragon Saint Master directly. I don’t think Long Fengyang will have anything to say about it."
As she said this, she decisively struck her own forehead with her palm.
"SPURT—"
Her delicate body shuddered as blood sprayed, and her entire being exploded with a RUMBLE as her soul imdiately began to crack and shatter.
"You—"
Ye Tianling was shocked. ’This girl is so decisive?!’
"HUMMM—"
At that mont, the withered old woman suddenly acted. She unleashed a terrifying cyan halo of light that flowed and coalesced into a Spiritual Spring, enveloping Long Qianying and instantly imprisoning her soul, preventing it from shattering further.
Long Yunfan was stunned, then said, "Let’s get through this current crisis first. After that, I’ll beco a Void Body for you too! Your Void Body was destroyed, and while ours naturally won’t be as strong as yours was, our foundations are not weak. In the future, we will be every bit as good as those other Void Bodies, if not better."
Long Yunfan said earnestly.
Ye Tianling was stunned for a mont, then said, "Let go. I’m leaving this place to save my father, Tianyu, and Tianmo. The Dragon Race’s affairs end here."
Ye Tianling reached out to pull Long Qianying’s hand off his arm, but he couldn’t separate them at all.
Long Qianying’s grip was extrely tight. Even as she began to lose consciousness, she didn’t loosen her hold in the slightest.
’She’s being sincere. Why don’t you just go ahead and refine her into a Void Body, turning her into a Dao Body? During the Refinent process, you can even achieve Yin Yang Harmony with her corpse, which would allow you to seize twenty to thirty percent of her strength and Talent. It would be a significant boost for you.’
Little Dragon Girl suggested.
’These people... they’re all a bunch of lunatics.’
Ye Tianling frowned.
’In their eyes, you’re the biggest lunatic of all. The Dragon Race... dragons are not human, after all. Their way of thinking is vastly different from that of humans. They believe more in the law of the jungle, where the strong are revered. Not to ntion, you entered the Demon state through your Emotions, your Talent after Demonization was heaven-defying, and after the slaughter, you were able to awaken from your Demonized state. And now, in such a desperate situation, you’ve managed to recover, only dropping a re two Small Realms...
That performance was too astonishing. It shattered their understanding and made them see you as their glory.’
’? Their glory?’
Ye Tianling felt a sense of absurd delusion.
’It’s absurd, but it’s true.’
Little Dragon Girl sighed.
"How do I break free?"
Ye Tianling asked.
’Soon.’
Little Dragon Girl replied.
By now, the withered old woman had stabilized Long Qianying’s condition.
And the Taotie Divine Beast had already torn through the sky and was descending once more.
"You killed my child! This ti, even if I have to make nine Descents, even if my true body must co, This Seat will utterly annihilate you!"
The voice of the Divine Beast Taotie tore through the sky.
The withered old woman flew out and stood in front of Ye Tianling. She looked quietly at the Taotie Divine Beast and said, "This World is beyond your imagination. You should not have co."
The Taotie Divine Beast snorted coldly. The air that blasted from its nostrils caused the void to explode violently, and vast swaths of the Shattered Void collapsed.
"Should not have co? It’s nothing but a re broken planet!"
As the Taotie Divine Beast spoke, its gaze hardened, sweeping over the Demon Heart Sword Body. It then opened its maw wide, attempting to swallow him in one great gulp.
