Ao Xiaoyu didn't see Chen Nan's plea for help!
Her expression was grim as she stared at the giant dragon descending from the sky, and she whispered, "He is Ao Shu, a cultivator at the mid-True Immortal stage. His strength is considerable!"
Mei Niang gasped, "Is this guy that strong? But why didn't I sense it?"
Ao Xiaoyu looked at her with a hint of surprise!
Mei Niang cleared her throat and said shyly, "I've 'played' with him before."
Ao Xiaoyu looked at her incredulously, "I thought the Dragon race was naturally unrestrained, but I never imagined your Leopard race was like this. How can you take pride in 'playing' with men? Aren't you ashamed?"
"Chen Nan, your talent is exceptional, and you possess the Desolate Ancient Sacred Body. How could you fall for such a person?"
She had initially held Mei Niang in high regard!
After all, she was Chen Nan's Dao companion! wΑp.kanshu伍.netkanδん
But now, she disliked her more and more, even to the point of falling out with her!
Mei Niang was unfazed, "My happiness is not something you can comprehend!"
*Swish!*
Ao Shu attacked through the air, transforming into a man in a green robe mid-flight!
He had sharp sword-like eyebrows and bright eyes, exuding a heroic aura!
Hovering in the air, his gaze was cold, "Chen, why do you show no fear upon seeing me?"
Chen Nan quickly said, "I'm so scared, really, so scared!"
Mei Niang also put on an exaggerated act, "I'm very scared too!"
"Uncle Ao, we are uncle and nephew. Is there really no need to be so ruthless?" Compared to Chen Nan and Mei Niang's theatrical displays, Ao Xiaoyu remained calm!
Ao Shu said, "Your Highness, I do not wish to be this way, but the Dragon King has decreed that you must be brought back!"
"Therefore, please do not make things difficult for me!"
Ao Xiaoyu whispered, "I am no longer a Dragon princess!"
Ao Shu sighed lightly, "Then do not blame me for being merciless!"
Chen Nan waved at him, "Hey, Ao, look here, look here! This is the territory of the Bird race. How can you be so arrogant? Do you really think you can contend against the strong cultivators of the Bird race?"
A hint of a meaningful smile played on Ao Shu's lips, "You sent a message to the Roc Emperor just now, didn't you?"
Chen Nan replied with a teasing smile, "Aren't you afraid?"
Ao Shu chuckled lightly, "This place is only a few hundred thousand miles from the Divine Tree. Under normal circumstances, a few seconds after you send for help, the Roc Emperor would appear behind you!"
"But so much time has passed, and he has not shown up. Why?"
"Does that make sense?"
"What do you mean?" Chen Nan's expression suddenly changed!
A sense of foreboding washed over him!
Just as Ao Shu said, it didn't make sense!
"You... you used the One-Inch Realm?" Ao Xiaoyu's face turned ashen, her voice trembling slightly!
Mei Niang asked nervously, "What is the One-Inch Realm?"
Ao Xiaoyu swallowed nervously, "The One-Inch Realm is the Dragon race's ultimate inherited treasure. This treasure can simulate the entire Immortal Realm and bring it under control!"
Chen Nan felt his scalp tingle, "Meaning, we've been flying within the Dragon race's inherited treasure for all this time we thought we were escaping?"
Ao Xiaoyu nodded solemnly!
"Damn it!"
Chen Nan's face changed completely!
They were still trapped within the Dragon race's domain!
Yan Guang would surely rush over as soon as he received the distress signal!
The moment he set foot in the Dragon race's territory, it would be equivalent to making enemies of the other four top-tier combatants of the Monster race!
Before Chen Nan could react!
The scenery before their eyes shifted!
As if traversing time, they appeared at the entrance of the Dragon race's barrier!
And at the barrier entrance!
Countless Dragon race powerhouses stood watching them menacingly, with smiles that were not quite smiles!
"Chen, it's truly unfortunate that we meet again!" Ao Thirteen grinned, "Do you remember what I said before? I'll kill you next time we meet!"
"Do you really think our Dragon race is easy to bully?"
"Dare to offend our Dragon race, hmph, you'll die this time next year!"
The Dragon race powerhouses spoke one after another!
"So, this has been your scheme all along?" Chen Nan's face was ashen with rage, he hadn't expected to be toyed with by a bunch of Dragons!
This was completely beyond his expectations!
It filled him with shame and anger!
A middle-aged man, two meters tall, clad in a green dragon robe, strode through the void step by step!
His eyes were cold, like stars in the night sky!
Every movement exuded an aura of world-ending power!
As if he had merged with the heavens above!
Giving people an urge to prostrate themselves in worship!
He was the Dragon King!
The number one powerhouse of the Monster race!
The only supreme being in the current Immortal Realm who could contend with the Human Emperor!
In his presence, Chen Nan felt his heart race, a sense of panic and unease washing over him!
Even with his Desolate Ancient Sacred Body, this was the number one powerhouse of the Monster race!
"You are Chen Nan, aren't you?" Ao Lie spoke, "You... are very arrogant!"
"You are the first person in my memory to dare to cause trouble in the Dragon race!"
"And to insult the divine might of our Dragon race!"
"The Desolate Ancient Sacred Body is indeed formidable!"
"But you will die today!"
"However, out of gratitude for you, I will not kill you for the time being!"
"I will wait for Yan Guang to arrive and kill you in front of him!"
Chen Nan laughed in exasperation, "Out of gratitude for me?"
"Yes!" Ao Lie continued, "I have been trying to find a way to kill Yan Guang. Even Ao Xiaoyu... at first, I had high hopes for her!"
"Unfortunately, her talent is too poor, and she cannot grow into a powerful figure!"
"Therefore, she can only be a tool for me to earn money!"
Chen Nan swallowed his saliva fiercely, "If you didn't suppress her Bird race bloodline, how many among your young Dragon generation could be her opponent?"
Even with her bloodline suppressed, she had cultivated to Golden Immortal!
If Ao Xiaoyu's Bird race bloodline was not suppressed!
Her current cultivation would have at least reached Spirit Immortal, or even True Immortal!
Ao Lie said, "None of that matters. What matters is that you can help me lure Yan Guang here!"
"Actually, I did consider revealing Ao Xiaoyu's origins. That might have lured Yan Guang here!"
"But I rejected that idea!"
"Ao Xiaoyu was conceived with her mother's lifelong essence blood ten years after her mother's death!"
"Even if I revealed this, Yan Guang, given his personality, would not believe it!"
"But you are different!"
"You are the savior of the Bird race!"
"You are Yan Guang's sworn brother!"
"Now that you are in danger in the Dragon race, he will definitely rush to save you without hesitation!"
"As you know, there is an agreement among the five major powers of the Monster Realm!"
"As soon as Yan Guang appears, this place will surely become his place of demise!"
Chen Nan's expression turned solemn!
He looked at the eight Bird race experts following behind him, "Can you send a message to Brother Yan, telling him not to come?"
All eight shook their heads!
Although they could send a message to Yan Guang, there was a significant delay!
Yan Guang would not receive their message in a short period!
Chen Nan fell into despair!
With things having reached this point!
His only hope was that Yan Guang was in closed-door cultivation and had not received his plea for help!
------
The Bird race!
Yan Guang, who was in closed-door cultivation, suddenly opened his eyes, "This is bad, Brother Chen Nan is in danger in the Dragon race!"
