On the other side.
The celestial steed and the quasi-Dragon Venerable were on the verge of battle.
The celestial steed's body was as majestic and powerful as a dragon, towering higher than mountains, while the quasi-Dragon Venerable was even more colossal, far exceeding a million zhang, like a moving Great Wall. The two collided countless times in the most primitive and fierce manner. Dragon scales shattered, and blood splattered. The celestial steed and the quasi-Dragon Venerable fought from the ground to the sky, destroying countless mountain ranges and giant trees. In the end, the quasi-Dragon Venerable had the upper hand.
Two sharp dragon claws pinned the celestial steed's body firmly to the ground.
It let out a roar, tilting its head back!
"Damn it, Old Ma!"
At this moment, the toad was still evading the dragons.
Seeing this, its eyes instantly turned red.
Unfortunately, before it could rush over to rescue, the dragons seized this golden opportunity and heavily surrounded the toad. Their powerful dragon bodies formed walls of steel, and their dragon claws struck the toad fiercely, almost tearing it apart.
"Hahaha, how dare you provoke our Tianchi Dragon City, this is your fate!"
The quasi-Dragon Venerable opened its massive maw and bit down towards the celestial steed's neck.
Just then.
A figure descended silently.
With a casual flick of a finger.
The quasi-Dragon Venerable's immensely heavy, thousand-pound body was easily flicked away like a feather.
The moment they saw this figure.
The celestial steed's untamed eyes instantly widened.
"Boss Ling!"
So did the toad. It struggled to expose half its head from the pile of dragons, its face instantly filled with joy and disbelief. "Boss, am I dreaming!"
"Who are you?"
The quasi-Dragon Venerable flew back, appearing to be facing a formidable enemy.
Although Ling Fan's current realm was only at the quasi-Heavenly Venerable level, he made the quasi-Dragon Venerable feel a great sense of crisis.
Ling Fan completely ignored it.
The quasi-Dragon Venerable became enraged and said, "These two are wanted criminals of our Tianchi Dragon City. If you dare to save them, you are equally guilty! I advise you not to make a mistake, you cannot afford to offend our Tianchi Dragon City."
"Oh, Tianchi Dragon City? Never heard of it. I've only heard of the Ancient Dragon City."
"Arrogant!"
The quasi-Dragon Venerable was furious. It raised its massive head, almost reaching beyond the heavens. Its condescending gaze fell upon Ling Fan, and suddenly, a fierce light flashed in its eyes as it lunged at Ling Fan with a dragon claw.
"Boss Ling, be careful! This four-legged snake is very powerful, almost invincible beneath the Heavenly Venerable!" the celestial steed blurted out as a warning.
"No matter."
Ling Fan was unconcerned.
He flicked his finger again.
*Puff!*
In the next moment, under the gaze of countless eyes, the dragon claw of the dignified quasi-Dragon Venerable powerhouse exploded out of thin air. And this was not the end; its body also began to crack inch by inch, finally exploding with a bang, turning into a sky full of bloody rain.
Killing a quasi-Dragon Venerable with a flick of a finger!
The celestial steed and the toad stared with wide eyes, unable to believe what they were seeing.
"Damn, that's amazing, Boss!"
The experts from Tianchi Dragon City, however, were all enraged, letting out mournful cries.
"Flee quickly! Go and invite the Dragon Venerables to act!"
Those dragons instantly turned tail and fled towards Tianchi Dragon City in fear.
"You injured the celestial steed to this extent, so you shall stay and become a feast for the celestial steed and the toad."
Ling Fan let out a cold snort.
The dragons then exploded into the air one by one.
With a casual grab from Ling Fan.
They transformed into blood-colored dragon pearls, which Ling Fan tossed towards the celestial steed and the toad.
"Boss, are you... have you advanced to Heavenly Venerable!"
Seeing Ling Fan's overwhelmingly dominant methods, the celestial steed and the toad were so shocked their jaws almost dislocated.
"Not yet. I came to the Heavenly Dragon Realm this time to seek a breakthrough. As for you two, Xueyi said you ascended to the Heavenly Demon Realm, how did you end up in the Heavenly Dragon Realm?"
Ling Fan asked.
The toad's old face flushed red and it said, "Don't mention it, Boss. We two went a bit too far in the Heavenly Demon Realm. We ate too many Demon Emperors, which led to us making enemies everywhere, and we couldn't stay any longer, so we secretly came to the Heavenly Dragon Realm. We were worried about you, Boss, and wanted to improve our strength quickly to help you out!"
"No wonder your strength has improved so quickly."
Ling Fan chuckled, unable to suppress his amusement.
Seeing Ling Fan smile, the toad immediately felt much more relaxed. While devouring the blood-colored dragon pearls of the dragons, it boasted, "Of course, the combination of me and Old Ma is seamless, like two swords combined! We've broken through life-and-death situations countless times, almost always winning against the odds. Otherwise, we wouldn't have achieved what we have today! Boss, we haven't disgraced you this time, have we?"
"Alright, stop boasting. Let's go to Tianchi Dragon City."
Upon hearing Ling Fan's words, the toad, which had been beaming with pride just moments ago, froze.
"What? Boss, did I hear that wrong? Going to Tianchi Dragon City, aren't we going to our deaths? Tianchi Dragon City has several Dragon Venerables guarding it! I even heard there's an old dragon with four paths of power!"
Lan Xueyi covered her mouth and chuckled, "You two have probably been on the run and haven't heard about what happened in the Central Heavenly Realm."
After Lan Xueyi briefly recounted what had happened in the Heavenly Court of the Central Heavenly Realm.
The toad and the celestial steed stared blankly.
"Amazing!" the celestial steed said from the bottom of its heart.
"Old Ma, Old Ma, compared to what Boss has done, what we've done is merely child's play. Boss even overturned the entire Heavenly Court! Tsk tsk, what kind of place is the Heavenly Court? I've heard of it. It's like the Ancient Dragon City of the Heavenly Dragon Realm and the Demon God Palace of the Heavenly Demon Realm, a supreme holy land!"
After the shock, the toad became extremely proud, saying, "Now, who would dare bully us? Old Ma, our good days are here! Hahahaha! Following Boss, we never go hungry... uh, no, we don't get lost. Following Boss, we eat dragon meat every meal!"
...
Tianchi Dragon City.
This was a dragon city that imitated the human cities of the Central Heavenly Realm.
It had some fame in the Heavenly Dragon Realm.
The City Lord of Tianchi Dragon City had a strength above the four paths, making him a hegemonic figure in the Heavenly Dragon Realm, which was full of powerful individuals.
At this moment.
The usually solemn and majestic Tianchi Dragon City was filled with a murderous aura.
A terrifying Heavenly Venerable pressure erupted within the dragon city.
"What? The search party led by Shan Liang was wiped out? Who dares to be so audacious as to act so recklessly in our Tianchi Dragon City!"
In the grand dragon palace, a young man with a face full of killing intent and two horns on his head, wearing a dragon robe, was furious. A group of Tianchi Dragon City experts dared not even breathe.
This young man was the son of the City Lord of Tianchi Dragon City, the Young City Lord of Tianchi Dragon City.
He had a mischievous and fiery temper.
Ever since he cultivated to become a Dragon Venerable hundreds of years ago, his temper had only worsened.
Now, upon hearing his subordinate report the death of a quasi-Dragon Venerable, which was a considerable loss even for Tianchi Dragon City, he was extremely angered.
Just as he was about to order a thorough investigation into the matter.
He never expected.
The culprit was already openly storming into Tianchi Dragon City.
