“…”
Immersed in his thoughts, the young man snapped back to reality, realizing his friend had stopped speaking as if waiting for his response.
“My mindset has always been good, Mr.
Gongsun.
I’m naturally cheerful.”
That was a lie.
“Throwing around those flimsy lies again, just like this afternoon.”
This afternoon’s lie…
Was it the one about the dream during our chat at the fast-food restaurant?
It had only been a few hours ago, yet it now seemed like a century had passed.
“You know, if I don’t tell some meaningless lies every now and then, I can’t settle down.”
He heard his friend’s laughter.
“With Ah Ce back to his usual self, I can rest easy.”
The conversation paused there.
The battle expert finally brought him back to the surface, and the two emerged in the center of the boulevard at the district’s border, causing a stir among the panicked citizens due to the giant dragon sighting.
“The ghost of the Dragon of the Vaulted Sky has appeared!” “Mom, I’ll never take those weird drugs again!” “A man flying from underground!”
Even Gongsun, who prided himself on his good mindset, choked when he heard these exclamations.
How could these people be so startled over such a trivial event, had they never been involved in a street brawl of superpowers?
“Where is Yan Qi?”
“Over there on the rooftop.
Look, this grappling hook will come in handy.”
Qin Qianbai shot out a grappling hook from his sleeve, its claw grabbing onto the edge of the rooftop’s terrace, pulling the two of them through the air toward their target.
A man in a black coat, looking impatient, pounded on the rooftop and shouted, “Get to work, Gongsun kid!”
Gongsun Ce roared at him, “After this is over, you owe me an explanation, Yan Qi!
Tell me what’s happening now!”
Yan Qi pointed at the massive figure in the sky with his chin: “Did you go blind along with dying once?
Look for yourself!”
The single-headed, ten-winged giant dragon was imprisoned in the center of a dark cage, its golden body gradually matched the appearance of the calamity from memory, taking the young man back to incidents three years prior.
Back then, the dragon wasn’t in this state; its body was flawless, its golden scales impervious to harm, the light emitted by its three dragon heads could craft gods from myths.
The irresistible colored glaze swept through the entire city…
Until two of its dragon heads were severed by a sharp blade.
Gongsun Ce dismounted from his friend’s back, steadying himself on his knees, and asked, “How’s the sword now?”
“It’s inside the body of the Colored glaze Dragon, I’ve just lifted the sealing, and I gave it a good blast with the Sword Array for good measure.
One more slash, and we can bring it down.”
“What’s the battle plan?”
Yan Qi tapped his chin with his finger and said, “Shiyu Ling is still on the dragon.
I separated that fool from the dragon earlier; otherwise, it would have been a hassle to have mixed targets.
The spread of Kong Hua Realm and the essence of the dragon are for me to handle.
Just to be safe, let the girl take you up there to get the sword and slay the dragon.
Remember, only one slash; if you don’t want a mishap to cause the sword to go berserk and doom the city, take down Shiyu Ling before slaying the dragon.”
“Alright.”
After quickly responding, Gongsun Ce thought to himself, (Can you hear me, Mr.
Shiyu?)
The young man in the suit’s voice echoed in his mind.
(Regarding her manifestation, I regret to say I didn’t grasp the full picture.
I can’t dodge or defend against her attack; I can’t approach or strike at her essence.
That’s the presence I perceive from my vantage point.)
Gongsun Ce remembered the helplessness of being with ‘Alice.’
Mr.
Shiyu had left one thing out. freeweɓnovēl.coɱ
In the presence of Shiyu Ling, no lies could be told.
(I think I’ve got some idea.
How long can I fight?)
(Ten minutes is the limit.)
(More than enough.)
(The cost is losing all extraordinary abilities for ten minutes, but in return, you regain full combat strength for ten minutes.
Good luck, Gongsun.)
Shiyu Lianyi cut off the connection, no, it was more accurate to say that having paid the price, he temporarily couldn’t use his superpowers.
Then, Gongsun Ce’s body surged with power once more.
The gray-haired young man floated into the air, raising his left hand to lift Qin Qianbai along with him.
The expressionless girl waved her hand in the air.
“I didn’t quite catch that just now, but we’re going to fight on the dragon’s body, aren’t we?”
“Ah, let’s go!”
The physical damage and spiritual fatigue, those symptoms of overusing abilities, were completely disregarded by the Superpower Users.
An invisible force propelled the two bodies, drawing them closer to the colossal creature in the sky like birds in flight.
At 45 seconds, the two arrived beside the Colored Glaze Dragon; at 56 seconds, they were standing on its neck, which connected to the Dragon Head like a long bridge, and they ran towards the Dragon Head where Shiyu Ling was—
“Kill!”
At the roar of a man, they stopped in their tracks.
Standing in the middle of the golden bridge was a man in a trench coat with eyes red with fury.
His twisted face was clutching his chest, and his eyes, filled with hatred towards the two of them, were as if he had encountered the murderer of his kin.
Gongsun Ce frowned; he still remembered the right he had won in the battle arena.
“Do not make any movements—”
“Stop trying to command me!
I don’t want the Manifestation Realm anymore!!” Xu Junyi roared as he tore off his shirt, revealing an expanding muscle mass, “And right now, I’m going to use my Divine Communication to tear you to shreds!!!”
It sounded like he freed himself from his own abilities by destroying his cultivation.
Superpower Users couldn’t bother to say anything to such a sore loser.
Qin Qianbai walked up to him.
“He used to be an official of the Empire, had learned your family’s secret technique.
The ones I’ve seen are Mountain Piercing, Submerging Land, and Hidden Strike.”
“Mm, just fight, I’ll support you soon.”
The Superpower User swiftly ascended into the air, and the man on the bridge roared, “Get out of my way!
Desolate Form·Divine Communication, Solid Iron Beast King!”
Xu Junyi’s hair shot up, and his black strands enveloped his entire head like a lion’s mane.
His fingertips grew into sharp claws, while his muscles turned into a dark, iron-like color.
His already robust figure swelled even larger, reaching a height of 6 meters!
Transformed into a steel monster, Xu Junyi leapt into the air, attempting to block the Superpower User’s path—
Only to find a slender arm had pierced through his abdomen.
“Qin Secret Skill·Mountain Piercing.”
The beast’s face didn’t even have time to shift to astonishment before the Martial Artist used the next move.
She did not withdraw her hand; instead, she lifted the enemy’s massive body along with it.
“Submerging Land.”
She swung the enemy like a weapon, smashing him onto the dragon’s neck.
“—Ah!”
Only when his body slammed onto the ground did the Desolate FormMage finally yell out in pain.
If Gongsun Ce were fighting him, the young man surely would have exchanged a few words in the midst of battle.
However, his opponent was no longer the same person.
This expert disliked idle chatter when engaged in serious combat.
The girl from the Martial Arts Faction yanked out her hand, and the blood that followed solidified into a dagger under her power.
She took the dagger in her right hand and smashed down with her free left hand.
“Hidden Strike.”
Her fist crushed into the chest, and the power strong enough to pulverize rocks surged within the Desolate FormMage, as Xu Junyi let out another heart-wrenching scream.
Fear appeared in the man’s eyes; only now did he realize how outmatched he was by the girl…
Much more so than any opponent he faced in the fleeting battle arena!
1 minute and 15 seconds, atop the head of the Colored Glaze Dragon.
The Superpower User stood on the golden dragon scales, and a woman with black hair, standing with her back to him, was in his field of vision.
She wore black hunting clothes and fingerless leather gloves, looking outwardly like a female hunter from a forest.
The “Hunter” turned around, looking at him in shock.
“I didn’t think we would meet again, young man.”
She emphasized ‘young man’ as if to mock this immature opponent.
Gongsun Ce tapped the white material on his chest, responding expressionlessly.
“The second round begins now, Miss Shiyu.”
