The Lord of Void and Real
Chapter 560

Chapter 560: 556 Chapter 560: 556 “Brother Lu, how are you?” Upon seeing his condition, Shen Luo quickly stepped forward to support Lu Huaming, asking with concern.

“I'm okay. I've just exhausted too much of my strength. You must go after it fast. We cannot let this evil dragon escape. Otherwise, the ghost crisis in Chang'an will not end and countless innocent people will be affected,” Lu Hua Ming replied weakly, his face pale as paper.

Without another word, he pushed the Dragon Slaying Sword into Shen Luo's hand.

Feeling hesitant for a moment, Shen Luo tightened his grip on the sword handle, nodding firmly.

“Rest assured, leave it to me. Take care of yourself,” he said resolutely.

Without wasting another moment, Shen Luo held his long sword in place, applying two Divine Armor Horse Talismans onto his legs.

The charm patterns on the talisman brightened as it burned into pieces, the ash sticking to his legs as he charged forward at an astonishing speed.

Lu Hua Ming, leaning against a rock to rest, gradually regained the color in his face. After swallowing a golden pill, he began to meditate to regain his strength. But the moment he started to mobilize his barely remaining mana, a wave of unbearable fatigue engulfed him.

It felt as if the world was slowly sinking before his eyes, and his consciousness began to blur. Eventually, he toppled over and fell unconscious.

…

Shen Luo chased for a long distance, but Jing River Dragon King was nowhere to be found. The only clue he had was the scent of dragon blood.

The scent was chillingly sinister, gravely different from the scent of Ao Hong's dragon blood.

Half an hour later, Shen Luo arrived at a mudflat.

Looking ahead, he saw black mud that was cracked and dry from the lack of water.

The area beyond the mudflat was shrouded with an ambiguous fog, cloaking a giant black shadow at the end of it.

Shen Luo's brows knotted as he wrinkled his nose, picking up a strong whiff of blood.

At that moment, a gust of wind screamed towards him. With dust kicking up from the right side of the earth, carrying a ferocious force, it swept towards Shen Luo.

Without thinking, Shen Luo made a quick pivot, stomping his feet hard on the ground to propel himself tens of feet into the air.

A massive dragon tail swept past beneath him, eliciting a thunderous rumble.

Shen Luo, swiftly descending, flung out a streak of crimson sword light which hovered underneath him, catching him mid-fall.

“Evil dragon, even with your severe injuries, you still refuse to surrender?” Shen Luo levitated in mid-air, holding the Dragon Slaying Sword in his hands, his voice filled with fury.

In response, a roar echoed, filled with an intense hatred.

Accompanying it was a wave of thick black smoke, cascading like a dragon's breath, filling the void with a scent of decay.

“Stubborn fool!”

Upon seeing this, Shen Luo abandoned his initial attempts at persuasion. Angrily muttering under his breath, he held up the Dragon Slaying Sword over his head, running the Pure Yang Sword Technique at full power, and fiercely cut down in front of him.

The Dragon Slaying Sword glowed with a crimson gold light, a dragon shadow swam over it. Following this action, a colossal sword shadow appeared, illuminating its surroundings as if it were daytime.

With a single slash, Shen Luo released a force that ripped through the surrounding air, causing ripples that reverberated throughout the area.

The smoky black Qi emitted by the sharp golden light of the sword immediately evaporated as if ice and snow meeting the scorching sun. The golden light continued its relentless advance, landing on the beachhead.

There was a huge “boom!”

A vast force lifted and spread to the sides from the center, acting like two invisible walls, pushing the dim fog that filled the beachhead away and forming an immense void in the center.

A huge trench, reaching dozens of feet in depth, appeared in the area, with whirls of sword Qi still rising up from inside, agitating the surrounding void into confusion.

However, at the end of the trench, a bloodied figure stood rigidly. It was the Jing River Dragon King.

At this moment, he was already dreadfully injured and had no more fighting strength left.

Shen Luo rushed forward, gradually landed, pointing at the him with the sword in his hand, his eyes sharp.

“Unbelievable! I returned filled with endless anger and hatred, only to be stopped by you ignorant youngsters. It seems that the destiny of Great Tang is indeed thriving,” the Jing River Dragon King said without moving, somewhat desolate.

“Evil Dragon, you have nowhere to escape. Won't you surrender and come back to the Great Tang Dynasty Government with me for trial?” Shen Luo said coldly.

“Accepted by the Great Tang Dynasty Government? As if they are worth it! As a king, I have already suffered one decapitation punishment on the Dragon Execution Platform, how come? Do you still want to behead me again?” the Jing River Dragon King sneered.

“Then there's nothing more to say.” Shen Luo's eyes grew colder, and the Dragon Slaying Sword was raised once again in his hand.

“The unfairness of Heaven, the injustice too hard to tell, the grudge too hard to avenge… Youngster, a good Dragon Head is here, if you dare, then come and take it, haha…” the Jing River Dragon King laughed wildly, fearlessly patting his forehead.

Seeing this, Shen Luo was also somewhat moved.

Although this evil dragon has committed many killings, this kind of spirit is not something everyone possesses.

“You have a great spirit and ambition. Although I, Shen Luo, am unknown now, I will certainly make a name for myself in the future. Your death by my hand today is no disgrace,” Shen Luo said confidently.

“Knowing the ambition of a youth to rise above the clouds, I once promised to be the best in the world. With such ambition, in the future, you will not be a mediocre. Forget it, forget it, come and kill.” the Jing River Dragon King looked at Shen Luo, a trace of admiration and envy flashing in his eyes.

Shen Luo upon hearing this, was slightly shaken, his longsword raised, jumped into mid-air, preparing to slay the Dragon King.

“Big Brother Shen, spare him!”

Just at this moment, an anxious shout came from the distance, and a figure sped towards them.

Recognizing the voice, Shen Luo hesitated for a moment and then withdrew his sword.

Next, a pretty figure landed in front of him. It was Ma Xiuxiu.

However, her outfit was different today. She wore a purple-black long robe, with a jade belt around her waist, and her long hair tied up high. She no longer had the naive appearance of her normal days, instead there was a sense of composure and fierceness.

“Miss Ma, you are…” Shen Luo's brow furrowed, and some guesses formed in his mind.

“Big Brother Shen, today I beg you to spare him once. I will surely repay you for this in the future, no matter what you ask for,” Ma Xiuxiu bowed deeply to Shen Luo, her hands clasped in a fist.

“Miss Ma, why are you doing this?” Shen Luo asked.

“Xiuxiu, you…” the Jing River Dragon King softly called her name, his voice was choked with emotion.

Seeing this, Shen Luo's guess became more certain.
