A Dragon against the Whole World

Chapter 523: Chapter 362: Beating the Red Iron Dragon Whelp Until He’s Picking Up His Teeth, A Shame Avenged! (Part 2)

The rise and fall of circumstances.

If the Dragon Race cannot quickly give birth to new towering giants, its future will be perilous.

”No need to be so pessimistic.”

Silver Dragon Adri said, ”Failure in breakthrough does not inevitably mean doom.”

”With the mighty power and foundation of the Golden Dragon King, even if critically harmed by backlash, he will likely survive, though he will be weakened for a while.”

Selena pondered for a moment, then nodded.

”This is indeed the most likely outcome.”

Even so, the gravity on their faces did not fade in the slightest.

Once the outside world perceives the Dragon King’s weakness and silence, tests, coveting, and even provocations from other powerful races will inevitably follow.

In any case, the Metal Dragon Race can no longer act as leisurely as before; caution and vigilance are required.

The two humanoid dragons continued along the coastline.

The waves played at their feet, and as they walked, their steps simultaneously halted.

In the shallow sea area not far ahead.

A tall and sturdy figure stood like a rock amidst the surging waves, gazing at the endless storm-threatened leaden gray sea.

Seemingly sensing the gaze from behind, the figure slightly turned.

A young yet sternly lined face came into view, with bronze scales like natural tattoos adorning his cheeks and neck, shining with a cold metal luster.

On his forehead, two dragon horns of the same hue, slightly curving backward, displayed his identity.

A sturdy dragon tail covered in tight bronze scales extended behind him, its tip subconsciously stirring ripples on the water.

This was a Bronze Dragon in dragonfolk form.

Sianuo Sheffield.

A mature Bronze Dragon with a life level of 20.

He bore the same surname as the Bronze Dragon King who ruled the Raging Waves Dragon Domain and shared a close powerful bloodline.

Among dragons of the same age, even the Golden Dragons renowned for their talent require outstanding individuals to reach such heights at over three hundred years old.

Sianuo’s talent is thus evident.

More crucially, he had not yet undergone the paramount slumber transformation of maturity.

Once he completes the slumber, barring any surprises, he is almost destined to step into the Legendary Domain! Moreover, he is not an ordinary Bronze Dragon; he possesses innate unique talents difficult for his kin to match, and will remain very powerful after becoming legendary.

In dragonfolk form, Sianuo gave a polite nod toward Adri and Selena.

He said nothing, and soon re-focused on the deep sea breeding the storm, solemn, as if pondering some heavy topic.

Adri and Selena had no intention to converse.

They exchanged a tacit glance, subtly changed direction, and continued along a path away from that figure.

They were unwilling to have too much contact with this Bronze Dragon named Sianuo.

The reason is simple: he is an extreme presence even among the Metal Dragon Race.

Compared to his fervent justice almost to the point of obstinacy, Golden Dragon Alberto’s rebellion seems like child’s play.

In the common perception, Bronze Dragons are war machines of the good alignment.

They possess a more fervent and uncompromising sense of justice than other metal dragons.

They are never hesitant to use their immense power, eager to eliminate what they consider evil by the most direct and violent means.

Sianuo Sheffield is no different.

However, what sets him apart is that his justice is too pure, too extreme.

He firmly believes: evil must be eradicated.

Evil itself must be thoroughly rooted out, leaving no space for survival.

This is not only aimed at individual evildoers but extends to the accomplices and even creatures with evil bloodlines flowing through them.

Among these, naturally, are the Evil Dragons, whose natural scale colors symbolize evil and destruction.

Whether Lawful Evil or Chaotic Evil dragons, in Sianuo’s eyes, there is no essential difference.

To him, Evil Dragons are the tumors of this land, objects that must be thoroughly cleansed.

What’s more eye-catching to his kin is, unlike other metal dragons who mainly punish or exile evil dragon kin, Sianuo often dealt lethal blows to evil dragon kin.

Such extreme, ruthless conduct made many of his metal dragon kin hold grievances against him.

But he was indifferent, unfazed.

Each time he executed his concept of justice, whether the target was kin or other evil creatures, the outcome was always... obliteration, leaving nothing behind.

[Wrath of Justice]—this is the title built from countless bloodshed he is known by.

Adri and Selena held deep aversion to this Wrath of Justice.

They always believed that the world is not simply black and white and shouldn’t be judged so straightforwardly.

Though the evil nature of the Five-Colored Dragons is indeed influenced by innate bloodlines, external environment and experiences also play a crucial role. Scale color and the source of bloodline should not be the sole criteria for judging kin, determining life and death.

Yet, despite their distaste, they could not openly accuse him of anything.

Sianuo was older than them, and stronger.

While the Metal Dragon Race is united, it also holds an internal hierarchical order based on power and seniority.

In confronting an older and stronger kin, they must, at least on the surface, maintain basic respect and refrain from wanton criticism.
