Chapter 1227: Furious Ox

Various beasts roared in the air – golden lion, gluttonous beast, one-legged beast, bi’an, and many more.

They painted a picture from time immemorial and Feiyun stood at the center, garnering enough power to stop the saint artifact.

The fan grew larger and its power intensified. The gales changed the landscape within ten thousand miles.

“A pseudo-saint using a saint artifact is something else.” Feiyun was blasted away but he had managed to divert enough attention away from the scholar and Fairy Xue.

“How can this be, that was enough to kill an eighth-level or send a demi-saint flying for thousands of miles.” Ox-dragon couldn’t believe it.

“He cultivates the dragons’ Myriad Beasts Diagram, it’s at grand completion. Is this the thirteenth prince of the dragons?” A different pseudo-saint demon said.

Ox-dragon feared no one due to his grandfather. However, Thirteenth Prince of the dragons was on the list of exceptions.

“It’s Myriad Beasts Physique of the phoenix, he’s Feng Feiyun, rumored to be the son of a phoenix queen and a human.” A demon with fish scales said.

“Ah, it’s the famous half-demon.” Ox-dragon was no longer afraid since Thirteenth Prince was a different story than a half-demon.

His grandfather could fight against a phoenix queen as well. The only exception was that certain dragon.

“Leave, I do not wish to kill you.” Feiyun smiled at them and said.

This was the truth because these rising stars had immense potential. They would be useful in the upcoming calamity.

The scholar understood Feiyun’s goal and nodded approvingly.

“Haha, you don’t want to kill us? As if you have the ability.” Ox-dragon laughed.

His race was one of the strongest and had more than ten rising stars, nearly catching up to the four great demon races.

“Don’t be a fool now.” Feiyun said.

“The calamity is coming soon and all will be affected, there is no need to fight and weaken ourselves. Leave, I will not pursue this matter.” The scholar said.

Ox-dragon had heard of this before. His focus was initially on the ruins but Prince Moonbreak and White Qilin persuaded him to deal with the humans. In reality, he didn’t care about the human’s attempt to become an immemorial race.

However, he was stubborn and didn’t want to return empty-handed. That would be throwing face away.

“Sigh, cultivation doesn’t make someone smarter. Prince Moonbreak and White Qilin are already at the ruins while you’re here running around aimlessly.” Feiyun said.

“They’re in the ruins? Impossible, they told me to deal with the humans together, not coming in until all the human rising stars are dead. Haha, I see, you’re trying to cause a rift between us.” Ox-dragon responded.

“Trusting friends is a virtue.” The scholar remarked.

“Yes, the hard part is knowing whether you have true friends or not.” Feiyun said.

Ox-dragon became skeptical and furious. He raised his fan with both hands and shouted: “I’ll kill you first and find out later!”

The fan summoned dark clouds and lightning bolts. The atmosphere became frozen.

“Go!” it became ten times stronger, shattering everything in its wake.

When it returned to his grasp, Feiyun and the others were nowhere to be seen.

After a while, the sky became clear again.

“Are they… dust now?” A rising star asked.

“Hmph, brats like them can’t handle the power of a saint artifact, yes, dust now.” Ox-dragon gazed at the bridge and said: “Moonbreak, Qilin, if you dare to treat me like a fool, then don’t blame me for devouring you two. Let’s go.”

He and the other rising stars headed for the ruins afterward.

***

Feiyun put away his invisible cloak and the three appeared again with a smile.

“Let them deal with each other, that’s more interesting.” The scholar said.

“He won’t actually kill them even if he finds out, I need to fan the flames more.” Feiyun said before putting on the cloak and leaving.

“You two are treacherous.” Fairy Xue said.

“It’s wisdom.” The scholar tidied his hair and headed for the ruins.

***

The ground was destroyed, replaced by lava. Two phoenixes landed next to a chasm and turned into two beauties.

“Big Sis, I saw someone wearing an invisible cloak flying by just now.” The young phoenix’s eyes flashed radiantly.

“Let’s head to the ruins, the phoenix queen said it is the resting place for a grand saint, there might be incredible fortunes.” Phoenix Saintess said, her beauty only matched by her elegance.

The two flew in their humanoid form instead due to the close distance.

***

The bridge before the ruins.

Prince Moonbreak, White Qilin, Prince Kun, and more than ten rising stars floated above the bridge.

“Haha, Feng Feiyun has finally shown himself, I must let him taste the agonies of life for what he did to my avatar.” Prince Kun laughed.

On the other side were Firebird Saintess, Firebird Princess, Zhongyuan Yidian, Ximen Chuixiao, Xuanyuan Yiyi…

Humans looked weaker compared to the immemorial demons, only Firebird Saintess was in the pseudo realm while the other side had five.

“Why isn’t Brother Feng back yet, did something happen?” Ximen Chuixiao had healed up to eighty percent at this point.

“Saintess, how are you doing?” Prince Moonbreak approached the group while gazing at Xuanyuan Yiyi.

The latter had been injured by him recently but was saved by Yidian and Shi Lan. She had no intention of speaking to him; her eyes were profound like the stars.

He had reached the pseudo realm and had three saint laws. His eyes turned red like rubies as he channeled his power.

“Bam!” Suddenly, someone punched him and caused him to spin 720 degrees in the air before falling to the ground.

This shocked everyone.

“Who?!” His right cheek was bloodied and his bottom jaw was displaced. Scales appeared on his skin as he nearly lost control of his transformation.

“Me!” Ox-dragon Sacred Descendant landed a knee strike on Prince Moonbreak’s stomach, sending him flying with a deep wound.

He was furious because while he spent time chasing humans, these guys were prepared to enter the ruins. His fiery personality allowed no such transgression.

However, Prince Moonbreak groaned a few times and didn’t get up.

Someone came over and was shocked: “He’s dead, his demonic core is crushed.”

This caused the crowd to gasp.

The humans discretely celebrated the death of a powerful demon genius and thought it was karma.

Ox-dragon didn’t expect this since he only wanted to vent and didn’t go all out with the punch and kick earlier. This was going to be problematic for him, having killed a prince of the triumph-fish race.
