Chapter 26: Reinforcements on the Dragon's Back_3
Finally, someone couldn't bear such psychological pressure and charged towards one end.
The result was predictable.
Lin Jue gave a bitter smile and said,
"We lost, these monsters are damn tough to deal with. The only thing I can probably do before that thing covers me is strike a cool pose?"
He joked in an attempt to comfort himself.
But no one found it funny. Experience more on My Virtual Library Empire
Song Que swore that if he survived, he would do everything in his power to prevent humanity from launching such a war again!
But he knew... perhaps today was his last day.
As one of the finest 'eyes', his duty should have been to lead the team out of danger.
It's just that he had no way of doing so.
Even Song Que was struggling to endure the gradual approach of death. In the end, he decided to charge towards Lei Xiao.
At least in dying that way, it would seem like he had put up a fight!
But just as he was ready to rush forward, Song Que was suddenly pulled back by Ye Feng.
Song Que turned to look at Ye Feng.
Ye Feng looked bewilderedly into the sky, as if there was something more distracting than death up there.
Song Que followed his gaze but discovered nothing.
"Dragon!" Ye Feng suddenly exclaimed.
"What are you talking about?" Gu Luo asked anxiously.
"A dragon... a dragon is coming!" Ye Feng's voice began to tremble.
His eyesight was far superior to anyone else's.
Lin Jue gave a bitter smile and said,
"The Qilin leads and the Azure Dragon follows? Are they worried we won't die off completely?"
Song Que felt that something was off; he could detect a hint of excitement in Ye Feng's voice, as if he had seen hope.
"No... it's not that!" Ye Feng said, looking at the sky.
Shock, joy, and bewilderment flooded his face, a complex mix of emotions.
But the original air of despair slowly dissipated.
"It's that person! The one with the mask on! He's riding the dragon here!"
Song Que was shocked and stared intently into the distance. Lin Jue, Gu Luo, and the others also looked far off.
The advancing line of death squeezed everyone's living space smaller and smaller.
And humans are such creatures; when one person looks up into the sky, even if there is nothing, many others will subconsciously imitate.
More and more people took notice of Commander Song Que's group.
More and more people raised their heads.
There wasn't nothing in the distance.
Among the roiling clouds thousands of meters up in the sky, a huge dragon revealed its head.
The distance was too great for people to see the figure on the dragon's head.
Only those with sight as superb as Ye Feng's and Song Que's could see the figure atop the enormous dragon's head.
Even so, everyone could see the majestic body of the dragon, with its crystal-like scales and the dignified orange eyes exuding an aura of majesty.
The dragon's roar echoed for miles, its sound thunderous.
The originally clear sky instantly filled with ominous clouds.
What was most astonishing were the fleeing sacred beasts all around, each bowing their heads in submission.
The ten Lei Xiaos in front finally stabilized their form, revealing appearances akin to lions, only their bodies were entwined with red lightning, especially their fur, which looked like bolts of lightning.
Unlike the prostrating fierce beasts around them, the Lei Xiaos' faces showed a solemn expression.
And the Shiling Beast that had been slowly advancing also finally halted its steps. When it turned and saw the giant dragon flying in the sky, it frowned in disgust.
The dragon above the clouds dived swiftly.
It wasn't until it reached the low altitude of a hundred meters that it stopped.
This time, tens of thousands finally saw the person standing between the dragon's horns, atop its head, a person wearing a mask, holding a kitchen knife, wearing mismatched armor.
He waved in a certain direction.
Song Que, watching Tang Xian's wave, felt hope rise within him.
"Since when did the proud Azure Dragon clan actually allow lowly humans to ride atop them?" the Shiling Beast frowned in disgust.
Though the Qilin's countenance always looked as if it was frowning.
"None of my business." Tang Feiji commented while also finding the Qilin quite repulsive.
"Do your two species have a grudge?" Tang Xian asked.
"No, but as a being of the sacred beasts, I just find him unpleasant." Tang Feiji said.
Tang Xian nodded, looking down at the creature that resembled the Qilin, and surmised the situation around him; he guessed that this creature was the legendary Zero.
Also called the Shiling.
A sacred beast species that feeds on the lifespan of other living creatures.
Tang Xian was indifferent and said to Zero,
"Before we start fighting, I have a little question for you, don't be nervous, I'm not close with those humans, I have no ill intentions. Can you transform into a human?"
