Chapter 729: Chapter 544 Northern Hong Great Demon and Eastern Hong Dragon Maiden (Map-Laying Chapter)_3

In front of that seemingly insignificant long spear, the scales-covered dragon claw cracked instantly, blood gushing forth like a flood. The dragon body was then pushed and rolled uncontrollably, smashing through several mountain cliffs, flattening dense forests of red maple trees, leaving behind a terrifying trench upon the ground.

White Jade Capital was her Boundary, yet she’d hard-received a blow comparable to the Union Dao!

Finally, the Purple-Bearded White Dragon stabilized herself, holding the long spear in her mouth along with blood foam and spat it onto the ground, "Ptui."

The next moment, she transformed back into human form, wiped the crimson corner of her lips with the back of her hand, and silently stared into the distance, "..."

Fairy Zi Lan had no intention of uttering any more threats now that the situation was beyond her control; any action that might provoke the Great Demon further would only lead to unnecessary casualties.

As she received the blow, the black wind had already approached Fat Elder, grabbed him by the throat, and before everyone’s eyes, swallowed him whole.

After chewing for a brief moment, it then spat out a tattered, blood-stained robe.

Black Bear raised his head, slapped the saliva-drenched robe onto the face of Red Maple Valley Master indifferently, "The Jade Maple Elixir, the tribute you give to Yunhe Sect, I want a thousand years’ worth, and don’t keep me waiting too long... And, one goes out, one dies, remember that."

Having said that, it couldn’t even be bothered to glance at the Purple-Bearded White Dragon again, turning and transforming into a black wind that swept back into the sky, quickly vanishing from sight.

"Cough cough."

Fairy Zi Lan unsteadily stood up, covering her mouth, then coughed up another mouthful of Lifeblood Essence.

With her Cultivation level, the price to catch that blow, which far exceeded the strength of White Jade Capital, was steep.

This purple-robed girl swiftly regulated her breathing and then slowly approached the intensely trembling Valley Master of Red Maple Valley, contemplating for a moment before saying in a hoarse voice, "Sorry, my cultivation is too weak."

The other Elders watched the pool of blood on the ground with complex expressions, momentarily at a loss for words.

Not even East Dragon Palace feared this matter; it was unfair to blame Fairy Zi Lan, as even if a Cultivator from Yunhe Sect had come, the outcome wouldn’t have been much different.

Besides, everything had happened so suddenly; the Fairy had been gravely injured without even knowing the specifics of the situation.

But now, trapped in such a dire predicament, they lacked the heart to offer comfort or gratitude to her.

"Do you recognize them?"

Fairy Zi Lan looked in the direction of the sweeping black wind. Though she didn’t show anger, everyone understood she meant to continue dealing with this issue.

"No... we don’t recognize them," the Elders quickly replied.

One of them seemed to recall something, "Wait! A mysterious Union Dao Realm powerhouse, acting in such a manner, showing no regard for East Dragon Palace, have any of you thought..."

With his reminder, the other Elders also lifted their heads in quick succession.

Someone then detailed for Fairy Zi Lan the recent rumors about Western Hong and the downfall of Pan Boyang from the Infinite Dao Emperor Sect.

"I understand now," said the purple-robed girl with a nod of her chin, then took out a conch shell again, "Come over first, I need assistance, and... send a message to my aunt."

With that, she set the conch shell down, extended her hand to remove the tattered robe from the face of the Valley Master of Red Maple Valley, looked at his pale and lifeless face, and pursed her lips, "Since it wouldn’t speak here, I’ll go find it, don’t despair just yet, let’s try again."

Such might possessed by the Great Demon, yet she had no recollection of it.

This was utterly strange.

The logic was simple; powerhouses could not have grown from consuming the northwestern wind, especially Demons. To provide for a Great Demon comparable to Unity Realm Stage, one couldn’t imagine how vast a territory they must occupy, how many Demons must gather Heaven and Earth Treasures for them.

Such an existence couldn’t possibly have zero information about them.

Moreover, according to what the Red Maple Valley Elder had said, there was more than one such powerhouse.

If they were being nurtured by some other force... in the Western Hong waters and lands, only Western Dragon Palace had such a foundation.

To be more precise, either it was Uncle Qi or Father-in-law.

No matter who it was, Zi Lan was eager to find out what they intended by nurturing such a mysterious force and whether it was related to her aunt...

"Huh."

Fairy Zi Lan instructed several Cultivators from Red Maple Valley to return first and then sat cross-legged to recuperate her Lifeblood Essence.

A few days passed in the blink of an eye.

Suddenly, a mass of black clouds appeared in the sky, and those coming this time had an aura that was nearly on par with before!

"Who hurt you?" Before the figure arrived, an anxious voice traversed the distance.

"It’s trouble again," Fairy Zi Lan opened her eyes, shaking her head slightly with an apologetic tone, "I was supposed to accompany you to search for your brother..."

"Tch, don’t talk formalities. Besides, my brother has had a hard time these years, finally got a chance to go out, and I might as well turn a blind eye so that he can have some relief, lest he return only to be provoked by that Xue Yan again."

The black clouds receded, revealing a young man with horns on his forehead, dressed in a dark green robe, his face marked by delicate scales, more intricate than dragon scales.

He raised his eyebrows slightly, "Let’s get down to business, I do want to see who’s so blind."

Zi Lan shook her head again and extended her fingertip, a unique talent of the Purple-Bearded White Dragon clan. Their keen sense to aura couldn’t be imagined by others.

"Don’t be careless; the adversary may possess a strength comparable to Unity Realm Stage. I’m just borrowing your black clouds to investigate. Since they have targeted Red Maple Valley, they likely won’t spare the smaller forces. I’m concerned about the excessive casualties. Once we have clear information, it’s better to ask my aunt to act."

"All as you wish," the young man in the dark green robe gazed into the distance, his eyes sharpening significantly.

In an instant, he released the black clouds again, this time enveloping Fairy Zi Lan.

Following the direction indicated by her fingertip, they headed toward the hidden abode of the Demons.
