Nine Dragons Saint Ancestor

”I say Red Feather, you’re just too honest. That guy is using you to make himself look good!”

Sensing the burst of that Ancient Heavenly Phoenix aura, the Golden Snake Worm Xiao Wu felt a bit of resentment, directly mocking with words, but such comments did not cause Red Feather the slightest hesitation.

Red Feather and Xiao Wu were different. Although they both saw Yun Xiao from birth, their temperaments were entirely distinct. Xiao Wu was arrogant and often contradicted Yun Xiao, but Red Feather never disobeyed Yun Xiao’s orders.

Just as Yun Xiao said, these two creatures with only a trace of phoenix bird blood dared to challenge the dignity of an Ancient Heavenly Phoenix. It was simply intolerable; she could not tolerate such provocation.

This time, Red Feather did not appear outside Yun Xiao’s body but instead unleashed a touch of the Ancient Heavenly Phoenix’s aura. For all flying beast pulse demons, this aura was a powerful deterrent.

If the Heavenly Dragon Clan was the sovereign of numerous vein demons on the Tenglong Continent, then the Ancient Heavenly Phoenix was the dominator of all flying beast pulse demons. As the Sky Dominator, even a tiny trace of the Ancient Heavenly Phoenix’s aura was enough to make the flying beast pulse demons bow and submit.

Currently, although Red Feather was still only at the ninth rank low-level, perhaps not having absolute deterrence over higher-ranked vein demons, the effect on two ninth rank low-level flying beast pulse demons was extraordinary.

”Purple and Green Double Luan, bite him!”

At this moment, Zhang Daohe had not sensed that strange aura erupting from Yun Xiao’s body. Suddenly feeling a bit mischievous, seeing the Purple and Green Double Luan getting closer to Yun Xiao, he couldn’t help but shout with a hint of laughter.

Just now, didn’t you say you’d let the Purple and Green Double Luan bite me? Now let’s see how it feels to be bitten, like slapping that boy’s face in front of so many onlookers.

”Eh?”

However, just as Zhang Daohe’s voice fell, Ge Wanli of Demons Mountain was the first to notice that the speed at which the Purple and Green Double Luan were diving seemed to slow down.

Then everyone witnessed an incredibly bizarre and magical scene.

The two flying beast pulse demons, originally rushing down fiercely to attack Yun Xiao, slowed their charge when they were about a yard above him, then turned around and began to circle over Yun Xiao’s head.

The aura of the Ancient Heavenly Phoenix Red Feather was solely targeted at Purple and Green Double Luan; no one else could sense it. Perhaps this was a deterrent unique to flying beast pulse demons. In any case, the scene appeared absolutely unbelievable in the eyes of everyone present.

”Charge!”

Especially Zhang Daohe of Wuyan Palace, who controlled the Purple and Green Double Luan, his face became particularly ugly, desperately issuing a whistling command, but this previously unrivaled whistle had no effect on the Purple and Green Double Luan.

”Bite that old guy!”

As Zhang Daohe continued to whistle, Yun Xiao calmly raised his right hand, pointed toward the Seventh Elder of Wuyan Palace, and uttered with a semblance of laughter in his voice.

”Chirp! Chirp!”

After Yun Xiao spoke, the Purple and Green Double Luan simultaneously cried out, then pivoted and rapidly flew toward the strong members of Wuyan Palace.

”They actually... did it?!”

Seeing this scene, everyone was dumbfounded, including Ge Wanli, the Earth Rank Advanced Beast Vein Master of Demons Mountain. As a high-level Beast Vein Master, he felt even more astonished by the improbability of this, overturning all his previous beliefs about beast veins.

Even for demonic pets already tamed by others, such as the ones under Zhang Daohe, they shouldn’t be easily swayed or reverse allegiance, right?

”How exactly did he do it? Could he actually be a Heavenly Rank Beast Vein Master?”

Ge Wanli pondered a lot, although he had suspicions. He knew clearly that even a Mountain Master-level Heavenly Rank Beast Vein Master wouldn’t possess such miraculous means.

This was the legendary instant submission. Since Ge Wanli started practicing the path of the beast vein, he had never encountered such miraculous events. That young boy in simple clothes was gradually overturning his understanding of beast veins.

As for those cultivators who weren’t Beast Vein Masters, their interest lay more in the dramatic scene: the Purple and Green Double Luan, originally belonging to Wuyan Palace, suddenly turning and attacking their own, seemed incredibly surreal.

Previously, almost everyone thought Yun Xiao was merely bluffing to provoke Zhang Daohe, never imagining that such a strange thing would truly occur.

The two Purple and Green Double Luan charging furiously at Zhang Daohe were not illusions, and they flew with indignation as if seeing their greatest enemy.

While flying beast pulse demons certainly submit to humans, the aura of the Ancient Heavenly Phoenix induced an innate fear and submission, a reverence born from deep within their bloodline that couldn’t be disregarded.

If Zhang Daohe were truly the master of the Ziqing Shuangluan, perhaps they might hesitate a little, but why would they have any scruples about an old guy like him?

”You ingrates, get out of my way!”

Seeing that his roar was ineffective and unable to stop Ziqing Shuangluan from attacking him, Zhang Daohe’s face turned iron-blue, yet he had no choice but to respond, as his late stage cultivation in the Earth Bending Realm made it difficult for Ziqing Shuangluan to harm him.

”Zhang Daohe, now that your support is gone, do you think you can still stop me?”

Yun Xiao seemed as if he had done something insignificant, and while silently impressed by the prowess of the Ancient Heavenly Phoenix, he chuckled softly, making the members of the Wuyan Palace look exceptionally grim.

They had long known Yun Xiao possessed Flying Meridian Techniques, so they brought Ziqing Shuangluan because they feared Yun Xiao would escape using flying power inaccessible to those in the Earth Rank Third Realm. And then, they’d be helpless against him despite their abilities.

But who could have imagined that even without a fight, Ziqing Shuangluan would act as if they were under a spell, obeying Yun Xiao’s commands?

Not only did they fail to become aids of the Wuyan Palace, but instead, they ended up entangling Zhang Daohe, leaving the members of Wuyan Palace so frustrated they felt like coughing up blood.

With the Flying Beast Pulse Demon gone, should Yun Xiao genuinely deploy Thunder Wings to fly skyward, who could stop him? Especially with two more Flying Beast Pulse Demons over in Demons Mountain.

Not just the affiliates of Wuyan Palace, but many observing cultivators all believed that Yun Xiao had used some miraculous means to remove his greatest worry, and next, he should be soaring into the sky, right?

Ge Wanli was filled with shock but also intense delight, as the seemingly deadlock situation was resolved so effortlessly. He found it increasingly difficult to see through that rustic young man.

”You all must be thinking that I am about to escape any moment now, right?”

Noticing the few individuals from Wuyan Palace were starting to move, along with the two strong figures from Thunder Sound Mountain and the Zhao family, Yun Xiao remained still and instead uttered in a cold voice.

After speaking, Yun Xiao turned his head and pointed at Zhao Huaixian from the Zhao family and said, ”I just mentioned, since you dared to harm Chi Yan, you must pay the price of life!”

”Don’t waste any more time, you, and you all, come at me together!”

Standing at the lakeside of Yanji Lake, Yun Xiao swung his right arm, moving from Zhao Huaixian to Yu Kuzhan of Thunder Sound Mountain, finally settling on the strong figures of Wuyan Palace, his words emanating sheer dominance.

”He’s not escaping?”

At the location where the Lv family stood, Lv Xiaoman covered her mouth with her hands, feeling that Yun Xiao was infinitely charming at that moment, indeed intoxicating, living life ought to be like facing innumerable foes without backing down, right?

Not only the members of the Lv family, but many others were also captivated by Yun Xiao’s momentum at that moment. Though some thought he was reckless and courting death, his courage was widely admired.

Judging by the combat strength of both sides, Yun Xiao was just a young man in the middle stage of the Earth Bending Realm, with his sole aid, the Ninth Rank low-level Pulse Demon Chi Yan, severely injured and contributing little.

While Ziqing Shuangluan, who was bizarrely turned, might be handled by Zhang Daohe alone, and with those remaining strong attackers, Yun Xiao’s chances of winning were nearly nonexistent.

Because Yun Xiao’s opponents included Zhao Huaixian from the Zhao family, Yu Kuzhan from Thunder Sound Mountain, and Leng Buyan from Wuyan Palace — all three genuine late-stage Earth Bending Realm powerhouses.

Moreover, Wuyan Palace still had four strong figures reaching the middle stage of the Earth Bending Realm, and even the Seventh Elder Zhang Daohe might quickly resolve Ziqing Shuangluan and join the battle.

No matter how highly people regarded Yun Xiao, they wouldn’t believe this young man in the middle stage of the Earth Bending Realm could single-handedly defeat so many enemies; that was fundamentally impossible.

Even Ge Wanli, who had the utmost confidence in Yun Xiao, was silent at that moment, believing Yun Xiao’s wisest decision would be to use Thunder Wings to escape, trusting in his terrifying cultivation talent to someday exact revenge.

But oddly this lad was acting irrationally given the chance to escape, stubbornly choosing to fight to the death; previously, Yun Xiao did not seem such an illogical person, did he?

”Could he really be confident?”

The one in the scene who might understand Yun Xiao best was perhaps the prodigy from Shenxiao Sect, Nie Xiaosheng.

Since witnessing Yun Xiao’s prowess at Xuanyin Hall and Extreme Yin City, he used the special intel system of Shenxiao Sect to deliberately investigate Yun Xiao’s experiences upon arriving in Tenglong Continent.

And upon discovering it, the information was startling; with Shenxiao Sect’s intelligence system, investigating the matters stirred by Yun Xiao in the Southern Domain of Tenglong Continent was no secret, further deepening Nie Xiaosheng’s thoughts on Yun Xiao.
