Chapter 806: Yue Ye and Ah’Bao Arriving One after Another (II)

The twenty Devil Dragons all seemed to be in their thirties or forties. Their expressions were cold and most of their appearance was vicious. However, all of them exuded with a sense of power.


They were all members of the imperial Black Dragon guard, as well as the central force of the Devil Dragons. This time, the Demon God Emperor had mobilised the entire Devil Dragon Clan to deal with Long Haochen.


Perhaps due to being overly powerful, there were difficulties with reproduction among the Devil Dragon Clan. They only had a little over a hundred clansmen. Once the old and young were subtracted, there were only around eighty adult Devil Dragons. However, their lifespans were extremely long, able to live up to a thousand years. As a result, they remained in their prime for a very long time as well.


They did not have a lot of members, but every single adult Devil Dragon was a powerhouse of the ninth step. They could all assume human form. Coupled with their natural physical strength as Devil Dragons, their external spiritual energy also surpassed a hundred thousand. On the battlefield, the Demon God Emperor’s imperial Black Dragon guard was a symbol of invincibility.


Suddenly, Ah’Bao felt his heart seemingly skip a beat. It was a very strange feeling. He instinctively slowed down and the Black Dragon guard slowed down as well.


“Your highness,” the leader of the Black Dragon guard, Huang Shuo, called out in some surprise.


The Demon God Emperor understood his son very well. Although Ah’Bao became more and more level-headed as he grew older, the operation this time involved Long Haochen, so it was difficult to say what Ah’Bao would end up doing. As a result, the Demon God Emperor specially sent Huang Shuo to accompany Ah’Bao. Not only was it because of Huang Shuo’s powerful cultivation, but more importantly, it was because of his level-headedness. With his assistance, they should have been able to adapt to any situation.


Ah’Bao said sternly, “My heartbeat’s unnatural.”


Huang Shuo was surprised. Ah’Bao had inherited the imperial bloodline of the Devil Dragons. Since something had happened to his heartbeat, it would be a warning.


“Stop.” Huang Shuo raised his hand and slowed down with Ah’Bao. The Devil Dragons behind them slowed down as well, coming to a halt.


Ah’Bao squinted his eyes as he expanded his mental force as much as he could, pushing his senses to the limit. As his mental force expanded, he studied the surroundings.


He was in a hurry to fight with Long Haochen, but he was still the future successor of the Demon God Emperor after all. He possessed natural leadership and intelligence. The warning from his heartbeat had also woken him up from his own world in his mind.


Huang Shuo arrived behind Ah’Bao and pressed his right hand on his back. Immediately, two powerful mental pulses fused towards and spread even further away. However, they still failed to sense anything.


“Is there something wrong with me senses?” Ah’Bao looked at Huang Shuo in some doubt.


Huang Shuo said sternly, “It’s still better if we’re careful. Everyone remain alert.”


It was also at this moment that a black streak of light silently appeared behind the Black Dragon guard. It had emerged from nowhere. It vanished with a flash, directly stabbing into the back of the last Devil Dragon’s head.


If it were a regular powerhouse of the ninth step, they would probably die without even being able to make a sound. However, the Devil Dragons were the greatest clan among the demons after all. In the moment the back of his head was stabbed, the Devil Dragon let out a howl. As he lunged forward, powers of darkness erupted completely.


The black light vanished with a flash, disappearing in the air again, like it had never appeared in the first place.


The sudden change in the situation made the atmosphere extremely nervous. All of the Black Dragon guards reacted immediately, quickly forming a circle around Ah’Bao and the Devil Dragon that was attacked with their backs to the centre. At the same time, dense auras of darkness surged about, immediately turning a range of several hundred meters into darkness. Even the slightest pulse of space would not be able to avoid being sensed by their aura of darkness.


Huang Shuo had already grabbed the Devil Dragon who was attacked Although the Devil Dragon had counterattacked the moment he was struck, the opponent’s attack was just too powerful.


He had been stabbed on the back of his head, above his neck. The head of a Devil Dragon was the toughest part of their body. Only the bone behind their necks was slightly thinner. The enemy clearly knew about this, which was why they had chosen to attack there.


Huang Shuo managed to feel that the strike had completely penetrated the Devil Dragon’s head just from a slight touch. Sticky killing intent remained by the edge of the wound. Blood did not even flow out.


The clansman’s done for. Huang Shuo’s expression became extremely ugly. He only had a few dozen imperial guards under his command. Every single one of them was a direct descendent and a true powerhouse. He had just lost one of them without knowing why. It would only be strange if he was in a good mood.


“When did the humans possess such a powerful assassin?” Cold light flashed through Ah’Bao’s eyes, but he did not become angered. He still gave off a cold presence.


Earlier, he and Huang Shuo had already checked their surroundings to the best of their ability, but the enemy still lurked nearby without being discovered. That only explained just how terrifyingly strong this assassin was. If he had not stopped in time and become surrounded by the Black Dragon guard, the strike earlier might have landed on him instead. Could he have dodged it?


Ah’Bao was actually unable to answer that question. Purplish dark light began to rise from his chest and afterwards, a layer of thick scales began to spread from there, covering his body in the blink of an eye. The other imperial guards did the same. However, Ah’Bao’s scales seemed much thicker than the others’. A pair of long horns curled out from his head and his aura strengthened drastically.


“The assassin should be at the fifth rank of the ninth step at the very least to be able to launch a fatal strike at such a close distance and retreat without being discovered. However, since when did the humans have an assassin at the fifth rank of the ninth step?” Huang Shuo asked sternly. Due to his fury, his hands had always been trembling! A clansman had died. That was a hundredth of the Devil Dragons’ forces. What would the Demon God Emperor think about him with that loss?


Ah’Bao said, “Now’s not the time to analyse what kind of powerhouses the humans have. The enemy’s already appeared. Everyone be careful.”


Now, his nervousness had actually decreased slightly. With so many imperial guards alert, even the Demon God Emperor would not be able to approach them without being discovered. And, after releasing his natural dragon armor, his defences had increased drastically. The natural dragon armour could rival epic tier armour from humans. It was the Devil Dragons’ most powerful defence.


Huang Shuo placed the corpse of his clansman into a storage device first, before saying sternly, “The assassin’s already left. They’ve retreated after a single strike. It was an instant kill. What an impressive assassin. Your highness, we might be in trouble. I’d advise us to reorganise here and wait for his majesty’s army to arrive. Otherwise, we’ll be forced to remain alert the entire time we travel. Once the enemies get a chance, they will definitely use it to launch an attack.”


Ah’Bao shook his head, “No, we’re the vanguard. It doesn’t matter if we don’t stop Long Haochen, but if we can’t even understand their movements completely, is there a point to having us as a vanguard? Everyone remain alert and be careful. Let’s keep going.”


Huang Shuo understood that it was rather unlikely for him to be able to persuade Ah’Bao right now. However, a clansman had already died and if the assassin appeared again and killed another clansman or two, the Demon God Emperor would definitely be furious.


Seeing Huang Shuo’s hesitation, Ah’Bao frowned, “Commander Huang, are you afraid?”


Anger flashed through Huang Shuo’s eyes, “Of course not. However, every single clansmen is the most valuable treasure to his majesty and your future, your highness. I don’t wish to see them take any risks.”


Ah’Bao snorted coldly, “I understand. The assassin hidden in the shadows in very dangerous. However, if we cower because of this, we’ll only dance to their tune. If I’ve guessed correctly, Long Haochen’s left the assassin here to delay our pursuit, so his subordinates can escape. Their attacks have already reached the Skynet Province, but he’s been fighting for the past few days. His army must be exhausted already. We can’t let go of this opportunity. And, the assassin’s already killed one of our clansmen. Only by continuing our advance can we lure him out and avenge our clansman.”


Huang Shuo frowned, “My advice stands the same.”


Ah’Bao said forcefully, “Your responsibility is to assist me. Don’t forget it. I’m the commander of the vanguard. Let’s keep going. Maintain your natural dragon armour.” As he said that, he left the encirclement with a flash and continued flying fowards.


Although Huang Shuo disagreed with Ah’Bao, he could only lead the imperial Black Dragon guard with him when he saw how Ah’Bao kept going.


Suddenly, Ah’Bao suddenly stopped despite only setting off earlier. He looked in front.


Huang Shuo saw him stop and thought he had sensed the assassin again. He hurried to his side and also released pitch-black light, turning Ah’Bao and his surroundings into something akin to a black hole. This was Huang Shuo’s domain.


Ah’Bao had not been attacked, but his gaze was fixated in a certain direction. Huang Shuo followed his gaze and his eyes immediately narrowed.


In the distance, a white speck hovered in the air quietly. It only appeared to be a white speck at first glance, but at a closer glance, it was a human. It was a human who sat on a chair.


Before Huang Shuo could say anything, Ah’Bao had already unleashed a deep below. In the next moment, purplish black light surged from his back and he basically crossed several thousand meters in a single moment.


The figure that hovered in the air drew closer and closer. He wore a set of comfortable clothing as his handsome appearance even rivalled the Moon Demon God Agares. His hands rested on the arms of his huge throne. Under his left hand was a dragon’s head, while under his right was a twelve-winged angel. White light completely enveloped him and the giant throne, just like they were a ball of light.
