The Legend of the Dragon King

It was mind-blowing!

The surprise attack had been premeditated and well-planned. Their targets were the resources carried by the twenty soul cars. The price of more than three hundred fixed soul ammunitions was astronomical. The more horrendous fact was their destructive power.

‘No, I can’t let them take our cargo!’

The senior colonel clenched his teeth and got up from the ground. Even though he knew that he was no match for his enemy, he unleashed his martial soul anyway.

He was a senior colonel in his forties and also a two-word battle armor master. His dark red battle armor quickly covered his body. Flames were released from his body and a pair of wings extended behind him. His seventh soul ring unleashed its radiance without hesitation. He transformed into a flaming giant wolf as he charged toward the dazzling silver light.

An arm covered in black armor appeared out of thin air. The senior colonel saw the arm enlarge in a flash.

Everything around him solidified. At this instant, it did not seem like he had unleashed his martial soul avatar, the flaming giant wolf. Instead, he felt more like a fly that was stuck on a spider’s web.

His battle armor creaked so much that it made him wince. He was being kneaded by a powerful force which could crush him in the next instant. He would be completely squashed and reduced to a mushy pulp like a crushed grape.

What a terrifying power it was!

All of a sudden, everything around him seemed to brighten up. The terrifying pressure was gone. In the next instant, a gleaming sword descended from the skies as it seemed to sever all illusions and the source of pain.

All the pressure pressing on the giant wolf stopped abruptly. The arm that was covered in black armor suddenly clenched its hand into a fist and shot upward with a punch.

Amidst a muffled explosion and the pleasant ring of a sword, a flash of light shot past with a buzz. The cars in the air dropped down with a loud crash. Only the first three military transport vehicles vanished into the silver vortex.

Under the illumination of the headlights, two figures looked at each other from afar. The senior colonel who was observing the scene felt a little lost. Having survived a disaster, he was still trembling despite himself.

“Darkness Phoenix!” A puzzled voice was heard. It sounded incredulous as well.

“Has the amorous one become a busybody?” a pleasant but an ice-cold voice came from the woman covered in black armor.

The senior colonel looked at his savior. What he saw was a man in white armor. The armor seemed as though it was chiseled out of white crystal. It appeared wispy with a faint golden mist within. The huge crystal wings behind him left a deep impression on whoever set eyes upon his armor. The glittering and translucent crystal wings were made of crystalline feathers. Even a dim light shining on them would cause them to give off a radiance.

The light ring under his feet was golden. There were not many ornaments on it. Only a silhouette that resembled a fairy maiden flitted around in the light ring. The light ring was more than thirty meters in diameter. It was slightly larger than the Darkness Phoenix’s.

Although the senior colonel did not know much about the powers of the great experts, he knew that the larger one’s light ring was, the higher one’s domain was above the rank of a three-word battle armor master.

In terms of the extravagance of their battle armors, the Darkness Phoenix clearly paled in comparison.

‘Could this be a four-word battle armor?’

Yes, the one in white armor was precisely the Amorous Douluo Zang Xin. Currently, his glittering and translucent Amorous Sword pulsed with radiance in his hand. There were no soul rings on his body. Perhaps, it might be more apt to say that nobody knew where he had hidden his soul rings. In any case, the situation appeared reversed the instant he appeared.

Scores of figures appeared from within the darkness. They surrounded Zang Xin from all directions. Beams of light were shooting toward the skies as they kept the descending mecha battalion at bay.

“I never expected the Almighty Space-time Shuttle to be in your possession. Tell me, when did you join the Holy Spirit Cult? If your elder sister knew about this, she would’ve been heartbroken.” Zang Xin eyed the person before him with a grim look. He never expected her to lead the Holy Spirit cult to intercept the transport vehicles.

Drawing the snake out of its hole was a perfect plan. Under the master control of the Boundless Sea Douluo Chen Xinjie, whether it was following the opinion of the Hawk Faction or the gradual easing of the Skysea City’s security, everything had been carried out according to plan for this day’s arrival.

To entice these Holy Spirit Cult experts out in the open, a third of the fixed soul ammunitions on the vehicles had to be real. Naturally, there were no rank-9 fixed soul ammunitions. Even Chen Xinjie would not take such risks. As far as anyone else who knew of it was concerned, it was all real.

However, Zang Xin had never expected that the person standing before him would be the Darkness Phoenix, Dark Phoenix Douluo.

“We’ll retreat!” the Almighty Space-time Shuttle in the Dark Phoenix Douluo’s hand dimmed and eventually turned into a flowing light which disappeared into her palm. With her experience, the instant the Amorous Douluo Zang Xin appeared, she realized that it was a trap against the Holy Spirit Cult.

Whether the fixed soul ammunitions were real or not, there was no way that she could leave with them.

The black shadows around them instantly gathered toward the Dark Phoenix Douluo. A pitch-black, feathery plume appeared in the Dark Phoenix Douluo’s hand. It was the Darkness Phoenix Plume.

However, Zang Xin was unmoved. He said with a sigh, “I’ve heard that the Holy Spirit Cult has one monarch, two emperors, and four great heavenly kings who make up the seven top experts. It seems to me that you’re one of the four heavenly kings of darkness. Since we’ve set this trap, there’s no chance for you to escape.”

The Dark Phoenix Douluo replied coldly, “You’re the same as ever. I see you’re still full of empty talk.”

The Amorous Douluo suddenly said, “I can understand why the Holy Spirit Cult attacked the Tang Sect. After all, we’ve been at it for years. However, were you involved in the destruction of Shrek Academy? Back then, you were worse than your elder sister in your desire for Yun Ming. You were so infatuated with him, but he died in the hands of the Holy Spirit Cult! Was it what you wished for?”

The Dark Phoenix Douluo’s beautiful frame shook slightly. Her initial violent aura was clearly shaken for a moment. “Shut up! Yes, I wanted him dead! Nobody can get what I can’t! His body was already unclean being tainted by that bitch! His soul can only be cleansed if he dies. I’ll protect his soul forever and keep his soul by my side. That’s what true love is. A love that’s free from every filthy thing in this world. He’s mine, always will be. Nobody can take him away from me!”

When he heard her hysterical shouts, Zang Xin’s expression changed greatly. “What? Yun Ming’s soul? You’ve extracted his soul? That means he can’t even be reincarnated. How did you become such an evil woman…”

His Amorous Sword suddenly burst forth with radiance. A terrifying energy storm spread out with Zang Xin at the center. Everything around them was illuminated. The dust and fog in the surroundings instantly vanished without a trace. Everything appeared cleaner.

“Evil? Am I evil just because I want to be with the man I love? Aren’t those who took him away from me also evil? You hypocrites, you can all die!”

The phoenix plume in the Dark Phoenix Douluo’s hand suddenly shook. In an instant, a black phoenix enshrouded in a purplish halo rose into the skies. A loud phoenix cry resounded around them.

The senior colonel felt a surge of a strong guiding force acting on him. In the next instant, his body was flung away. At least, he would not be caught in the battle between two great experts.
