Chapter 1025: Fighting Six Celestial Dragons
After Valefor gloomily returned to Fanghorn City, dragging the battered Sir Mugim with him, he sat on the person's back and waited for the new group of Celestial Dragons to arrive.
Since the Dragon Vein's seal wasn't fixed, the arriving Celestial Dragons did not need to break it as Sir Mugim did. As they emerged from the seawater and stepped onto solid land, they were immediately taken aback by Valefor's presence.
"A Land Dweller? Who are you? Why are you here? Were you waiting for us?"
"Sir Kaudin, take a look at the person he is sitting on. Isn't that Sir Mugim?"
The Celestial Dragon group quickly recognized Sir Mugim despite being beaten beyond recognition. Still, his terrible state immediately heightened the Celestial Dragons' wariness.
Valefor stood up from his seat and looked at the Celestial Dragon group with interest. He couldn't believe he spent so much effort on a single Dragonoid human when there were more of them elsewhere.
Still, the group of six Celestial Dragons wasn't necessarily on par with Sir Mugim individually. While their physiques were around the same level, some other energy cultivation bases fell short.
One of the Dragonoid men was even in the Divine Origin Realm, a realm lower than the Divine Star Realm.
Nevertheless, there were still six of them.
"I hope you can entertain me more than this weakling did," Valefor casually commented, kicking Sir Mugim toward the Celestial Dragon group.
Although Sir Mugim rolled to their feet after the light kick, none of the six Celestial Dragons attended him. They were too cautious of Valefor to take their eyes off him for even a second.
After all, Sir Mugim was fairly strong among their peers. Yet, he was only considered a weakling to the person before him.
Valefor saw that the Celestial Dragons were quite battle-ready. Thus, his fighting spirit ignited. Without any warning, he immediately dived into the group, aiming straight for the leading Dragonoid man called Sir Kaudin.
Sir Kaudin's eyes narrowed with coldness at once.
"Hmph!"
Despite his misgivings, Sir Kaudin did not evade Valefor's grasping hand. Instead, he faced it head-on, using a fist with all his might to test exactly how powerful his opponent was.
However, Valefor's hand became slippery, narrowly evading Sir Kaudin's fist before grabbing his wrist. With a strong tug, Sir Kaudin's feet were wrestled from the ground.
Valefor hurled Sir Kaudin over his shoulder, intending to slam him to the ground and kick him away.

However, Sir Kaudin broke his fall with a powerful flap of his wings. At the same him, his dragon tail slapped against the ground for additional support as his other hand grabbed onto Valefor's.
"Oh?"
Valefor expressed his surprise when Sir Kaudin tried to reverse the situation in mid-air and slam him into the ground like he was swinging a double-handed sledgehammer.
Unfortunately, shortly after Valefor was lifted upside-down, he immediately kicked against the air like it was solid ground to counter the force of Sir Kaudin's throw. With another kick, he catapulted himself into the latter head-first.
What!
Sir Kaudin did not have enough time to voice his surprise at Valefor's first air kick before the latter headbutted him in the forehead.
Although Sir Kaudin felt confident in his superior dragon physique for an instant, everything changed at the moment of contact. He felt like the surface of a neutron star had struck him. It was denser and harder than anything he could have imagined.
Pain immediately registered in his brain.
Ka-cha!
Sir Kaudin felt like his hard skull cracked as his body heavily slammed into the ground, greatly deforming the thick metal plates. His eyes rolled back, showing whiteness. He was knocked out in an instant.
Due to the close-contact exchange of blows, the other five Celestial Dragons found it difficult to interfere.
However, the moment distance was created, the other five Celestial Dragons instantly attacked Valefor from different angles while his feet were still a few inches off the ground.
The impeccable timing made it seem impossible for him to block or evade every attack.
Despite that, Valefor's heart thumped with excitement.
Swoosh!
Endless slaughter aura suddenly erupted from Valefor's body, instantly dyeing everything within the area, even the air itself, in a gloomy, dark, yet transparent crimson color.
The Asura Domain was capable of coercing all targets within influence, amplifying their negative emotions such as fear. The direct and forceful intimidation usually resulted in the target's decreased mobility, reaction, thinking, and strength.
Although Valefor deployed his Asura Domain late, it still affected all five Celestial Dragons and bought him half a beat of time.
In that instant, his eyes darted around with hypersonic speed, seemingly locking the positions of his five opponents, then moved his limbs accordingly.
Boom!
Valefor simultaneously caught all five physical attacks with his head and four limbs in the most unthinkable ways, astonishing his five attackers instantly. Shock and disbelief quickly flickered across their eyes.
"Haaa!"
With a loud grunt, Valefor exerted his strength and forced four of his attackers away, then grasped at the Dragonoid woman, whose kick he blocked with his head.
The Dragonoid woman's stunned gaze quickly changed, becoming sharp again.
However, she was shocked to discover she did not retreat as quickly as she had imagined to avoid Valefor's grasp. His inescapable hand gripped her vulnerable throat, forcing her kicking leg up into a standing split.
Their positioning was quite suggestive and could have been very intimate in another situation. However, Valefor had no appreciation for women and their beauty. In his eyes, the Dragonoid woman was just an oversized lizard.
As such, the moment he caught her throat, he did not hesitate to lift her single foot off the ground before slamming her down with force.
Boom!
The impact almost broke the Dragonoid woman's neck. Even so, she clutched her neck like she couldn't breathe under the suffocating atmosphere of the Asura Domain. The coercive force had not changed, but her increased fear made her feel more suppression.
Meanwhile, the other four Celestial Dragons had only been forced several meters before they bounced back with follow-up attacks.
Although Valefor evaded two attacks, the remaining two attacks still struck him in the back. He was sent flying in Sir Kaudin's direction, where he had calculated his flight path.
Sir Kaudin had barely regained consciousness from the violent commotion and dreadful atmosphere when Valefor flew into him with an elbow attack.
"Bleurgh!"
Sir Kaudin was instantly winded and threw up his stomach acid as his body smashed back into the metal-plated ground and slid along its surface.
At the same time, Valefor tilted his head to dodge the bile attack before gripping Sir Kaudin's shoulder. He hurled the latter in the air before whipping him in the ribs with a roundhouse kick.
The latter was given no chance of recovery before he was sent flying into the pursuing Celestial Dragons.
"Hahahaha!"
Valefor laughed excitedly, fully feeling the thrill of the fight. His maniacal laughter also intimidated his opponents further. Shortly after, he immediately took a powerful step and launched himself right behind Sir Kaudin's flying body.
When the two pursuing Celestial Dragons saw Valefor closing in behind Sir Kaudin, they instinctively slapped the latter out of the way. They simply had no time to receive him if they wanted to guard against Valefor's following attack.
On the side, Sir Mugim watched as Valefor fought two Celestial Dragons in close combat like he had four arms and four legs before dominating them in a single breath. His battle prowess broke everyone's fighting spirit.
'What a monster! He is even more powerful than when he fought me!' Sir Mugim thought with trembling fear. He did not dare to move from his original lying spot and pretended to be a dead fish.
When the two Celestial Dragons realized they couldn't best Valefor in close combat even after working together, they immediately decided to retreat and regroup with the others for a different plan.
However, Valefor did not let both of them get away. Just as a Dragonoid man leaped to flap his wings away, Valefor stepped on his dragon tail and forced him back into the ground.
The two opposing forces nearly tore off the dragon tail.
"Want to get away? You can only get away when I let you get away!" Valefor grinned, looking quite devilish in the eyes of the Celestial Dragons.
The Dragonoid man glanced back in horror as Valefor gripped his dragon tail before hurling him around in loops with high speed, generating powerful winds after only three revolutions.
"Off you go!"
Valefor suddenly released his grip, sending the Dragonoid man crashing into the back of his retreating companion like a slingshot.
Right at this moment, the Dragonoid woman called Lady Prisma overcame her amplified fear by exerting a bubble-like energy field. She quickly appeared behind Valefor, holding a golden hairpin laced a deadly poison.
Although she aimed for Valefor's heart, her wrist was firmly caught and locked in place after Valefor twisted his body around.
After identifying the poisoned hairpin, Valefor's gaze became much colder. Her viciousness had ruined his good mood. Since she resorted to such dirty tactics, she couldn't blame him for becoming cruel.
Valefor immediately clenched with excessive force, breaking Lady Prisma's wrist.
When Lady Prisma retaliated with her spare hand, Valefor also caught it with his other hand and broke her second wrist. Afterward, he gave her small chest a vicious kick without releasing his grip.
"Ahhh!!"
Lady Prisma painfully screamed as she flew into the distance with both arms torn from her body.
By chance, she landed not far from Lady Nurla, who had been observing the situation with Vaan. Her despair quickly turned to joy when she saw a familiar face.
"Lady Nurla, you're here? That's great! Please help me!" Lady Prisma pleaded expectantly, completely ignoring Vaan's presence
Lady Nurla glanced at Vaan's curious yet indifferent expression before biting her lips. Afterward, she gave Lady Prisma a kick, sending her flying back into Valefor's Asura Domain.
"Ahhh! Fuck your mother, Lady Nurla!" Lady Prisma screamed venomously in the distance.
