After chatting with Ling Er for a while, Yu Zi Yu roughly understood the current situation.

“Humans have never stopped fighting each other.” Yu Zi Yu sneered, paying not much attention to it.

This was in line with his understanding of Humans. He would rather find it strange if all of Humanity were to stand united against a common enemy.

However, at this moment, sensing the increasingly surging Spiritual Energy fluctuations outside, Yu Zi Yu suppressed the urge to take action.

[Let’s wait… Just a little longer… For now, the most important thing is to check on the Wyvern Egg.] Thinking so, Yu Zi Yu’s gaze shifted to a giant black egg not far from Ling Er, one that was as tall as the average Human.

[I have to say, it’s worthy of being a Tier-3 Transcendent’s egg.] From afar, Yu Zi Yu could feel a terrifying vitality emanating from the egg. What was even more striking were the intricate patterns covering the black Wyvern Egg, with black lightning arcs flickering in between them every now and then.

At a glance, it looked quite mysterious and extraordinary.

“Master, among all the Wyvern Eggs, the anomalies of this black Wyvern Egg are the most pronounced. If I guess correctly, its bloodline concentration should be the highest.”

Listening to Ling Er’s explanation, Yu Zi Yu could not help but chuckle.

“It seems that way.” Saying so, Yu Zi Yu focused his gaze on the egg.

Immediately after, a series of information flooded into Yu Zi Yu’s mind.

Race: Black Wyvern

Rank: None

Innate Talent: Fire and Darkness Twin — Immersed in the crackling embrace of lightning, adept in the manipulation of darkness. Gestating within the union of darkness and lightning, this lineage, ancient and formidable, harbors power that transcend the limits of ordinary comprehension.

Unique Abilities: Dragon’s Prestige — Even if it’s Wyvern, it’s also one of Wyvern with the highest concentration among Wyverns, it has one of the highest bloodline concentrations. It’s prestige is like a Dragon’s prestige. Simply sensing its aura will cause one’s combat power to drop by 30%.

Dragon’s Shock — Gathering formidable energy in its mouth, it can unleash it in the form of a shockwave. Even at the early stage of Tier-2, it’s capable of destroying a city. 

Dragon’s Tail — With a swing of its tail, it can deliver a fearsome blow, enough to split the mountains. It’s not a blow that can be defended easily.

Dragon’s Breath — The most formidable ability of Dragon Clan, peerless. It can produce lightning and darkness in its mouth, and beam it in the form of light, erasing everything in its path.

Lightning Speed — It can transform into lightning, and travel at a speed that it can even create rift in space.

Wings of Darkness — Wrapped in the terrifying Dark Energy, its capable of corrupting and eroding everything.

After taking a deep look, Yu Zi Yu was somewhat amazed at the terrifying Innate Talent of this Wyvern Egg. And that was when it had not even hatched.

Although Yu Zi Yu could already see a vague shadow of a Dragon within the Wyvern Egg, there was no denying that this Dragon was still incubating.

However, even in this state, this Wyvern Egg possessed such extraordinary talent. It stood as a testament to the horror of Dragons.

“This is a terrifying existence that can stand on par with Nine Tails and Golden Ant.” Satisfied, a smile appeared on Yu Zi Yu’s lips.

Just this one Wyvern Egg was already a plentiful harvest. It made Yu Zi Yu’s long journey worthwhile.

At this moment, Yu Zi Yu’s eyes suddenly narrowed, as if noticing something.

The next moment…

*Booom!* Accompanied by a loud noise, a corner of this massive building, that resembled a shopping mall, suddenly shook, before the walls exploded, raising a cloud of dust that shrouded everything.

Just at this moment…

*Tap, tap tap…*

Heavy footsteps came from within the cloud of dust.

Simultaneously, a sinister laughter echoed in the air.

“There is another little bitch called He Ling Er, right? If you’re listening, just be obedient. As long as you hand over the Wyvern Egg, your uncle guarantees you a comfortable death…” 

Just as the drop of these words, a strong nauseating scent of blood permeated the air.

What was even more frightening was a remarkably dazzling blood-red sharp flashes of blade, slashing through the dust.

Evidently, despite his words, this uninvited guest dared not be careless when facing the mysterious and terrifying Empress.

However, at this moment, a chilling voice echoed as if resounding straight in his mind, “Little bitch!?”

The voice carried a hint of confusion, but more than that, there was a coldness that made him shiver from head to toe.

Even Blood Butcher, who had tread through mountains of corpses and oceans of blood, felt his chest tighten as if somethone was gripping his heart.  It was akin to the feeling of having his heart squeezed tightly was something he had never experienced before.

What was even more frightening was that the moment this voice rang in his ear, all his hair stood on their ends, and even his palm, that was holding the saber, was overflowing with cold sweat.

[Run!] Without a moment of hesitation, Blood Butcher, who had been on the run for years, instinctively turned and fled.

At this moment, forget the Wyvern Egg, he did not even want to face the owner of the voice. Just this voice alone made him shudder. He did not even think of meeting its owner.

All these years, his intuition had played a crucial role in surviving China’s long and relentless pursuit. At this moment, he felt an indescribable crisis.

An unspeakable terror!

An inexplicable coldness!

And a horror he had never experienced before.

[Run, I must get away from here!] Shouting in his heart, Blood Butcher turned into a streak of crimson light, zooming straight towards the outside. However, before he could escape too far, an ethereal glow surrounded the tip of Yu Zi Yu’s branch.

*Whoosh!* Instantly, an immense surge of Spiritual Energy began to coalesce, giving rise to howling winds.

In just a moment, a ball of light, dazzling like the sun, coalesced at the tip of Yu Zi Yu’s branch, illuminating the entire shopping mall.

The next moment…

*Boom…* Accompanied by a terrifying roar, a beam of light, several dozen meters thick, tore through everything, shooting straight towards the north.

“No!” Before Blood Butcher could even scream, the beam of light descended on the red light.

Immediately after, much to the horror of countless Superhumans and Mutant Beasts in the city, a dazzling beam of light, seemingly tearing apart the night, cut through the entire city.

Looking up, a light beam had pierced through the sky, splitting more than half of the city into two.

And along the path of the pillar of light, not to mention Mutant Beasts and Humans, even the buildings in its path had vanished without a trace.

“What the Hell!?”

“Are you fucking kidding me!?”

“I’m definitely seeing things, I’m sure.”

Amidst cries of shock and dismay ringing around the city, the entire city came to a brief stand still. Even Elder Qing and the Iron Fist Tyrant and the others, who were locked in a heated confrontation, turned their heads in surprise, looking towards the source of the light pillar.

At this moment, a chilling laughter echoed throughout the entire city.

“Long time no see, everyone. Did you forget about me too?” Just as these words echoed through the city…

*Boom, boom, boom…* The ground started sinking as if it was unable to bear the weight.

Simultaneously, a terrifying aura began to pervade the surroundings.

Right afterward, much to the astonishment of Humans and Mutant Beasts alike, a touch of emerald green broke out of the shopping mall.

“What!?” 

Looking at the green glow, one of the Humans seemed to recall something, and his face turned completely pale.

But before he could speak…

*Boom!* Accompanied by a tremendous roar, the emerald green glow completely tore through the entire shopping mall.
