Chapter 166: I Am a Good Dragon!

The Red Dragon was very angry.

The consequences were severe.

It had been sleeping in its exclusive Treasure Trove, bathing in a sea of gold coins and listening to the crisp clinking of gemstones.

It was incredibly peaceful and immensely comfortable.

It was immersed in a beautiful dream devoid of Dragon Speakers and God-Slaying Witches.

However.

People from the Supernatural Administration Bureau woke the Red Dragon up.

They claimed that a large-scale World Ruins had descended and was extremely dangerous, requiring the Red Dragon, a Sanctuary-level combatant, to take action.

The Red Dragon was furious; being forced out of bed gave it an incredibly strong case of morning grumpiness, but it couldn't vent its frustration on the humans from the Supernatural Administration Bureau.

Because the Supernatural Administration Bureau offered a very generous reward.

It was a mountain of jewelry.

Dazzling and a feast for the eyes.

In just an instant, it firmly captured the Red Dragon's heart and mind.

“For love and peace, I shall not hesitate!” the Red Dragon set off immediately, its heart filled with desire for the treasure.

Despite its desire, the Red Dragon's morning grumpiness hadn't vanished; the Dragon Clan was extremely fond of sleeping, and a single nap for a Red Dragon could often last a long time.

Now, it had been forcibly interrupted.

The Red Dragon really wanted to find something to vent its pent-up anger on.

Thus, it set its sights on the newly appeared World Ruins.

“Dragon Charge!!” A crimson dragon shadow galloped through the high sky like a fiery meteor, leaving a high-speed contrail that refused to fade.

Between breaths, black mist surged.

During its dive, it was as fast as a bolt of lightning.

Its terrifying vertical dragon pupils scanned continuously, quickly locking onto the dense crowd of people on the ground.

Thinking about what was about to happen next…

The Red Dragon's face subconsciously became hideous, revealing an evil, cackling grin.

“Fear! Tremble!”

“The great Rexanches will grant you all an equal demise!”

“Jie jie jie! Jie jie jie jie!”

The Red Dragon laughed wildly, folding its wings back as it dove straight toward the earth; however, halfway through its dive, the Red Dragon suddenly saw a nightmare-like figure.

A-A Dragon Speaker!?

Why is he here!

The crimson dragon shadow came to a sudden halt.

What made the Red Dragon even more frantic was a powerful sense of death surging from the bottom of its heart, coming from nothingness and sealing off every corner of time and space.

I'm going to die.

I'm definitely going to die.

Rexanches swallowed its dragon saliva with difficulty.

This terrifying pressure reminded it of the witch who slaughtered the gods, but the auras were different; the witch was a quiet extinction, while this was a domineering grip on the throat.

Intuition told the Red Dragon that if it touched even a single person on the ground, it would die a miserable death.

If it were to harm Xu Xi, it would die an ultimate, invincible, especially miserable death.

And so.

The Red Dragon made a move that followed its heart.

Under Xu Xi's surprised gaze, the Red Dragon dove from the high sky to the ground, sliding and kneeling into a kowtow with practiced ease, raising both claws to show it was harmless.

It loudly announced:

“I am here to donate blood!”

“Oh?” Xu Xi was even more surprised.

The Red Dragon's earlier entrance had been so arrogant, streaking through the clouds like a meteor; he had thought the other party was here to attack the people of the Qiuhuo Army.

But now, the Red Dragon claimed it wanted to donate blood.

Was that really the case?

Xu Xi gave a half-smile that made the Red Dragon tremble. “You certainly arrived at a coincidental time.”

As he spoke, the jianmu sword-staff in Xu Xi's hand faintly emitted the radiance of a Forbidden Curse.

Cold sweat poured down the Red Dragon; it had realized that even without that mysterious, unpredictable killing intent, Xu Xi had long prepared a 'Gentle Tap Combo' for it.

Thus, the Red Dragon's expression became even more fawning.

Rubbing its claws together, it indicated that it was a good dragon, a very good dragon.

It claimed that if Xu Xi didn't want to see it…

It could scramble away at the fastest possible speed.

“No, you've come at just the right time,” Xu Xi shook his head, rejecting the Red Dragon's suggestion. “I plan to take these people away. Since you're here, give them a ride.”

There were simply too many people emerging from the World Ruins.

Not only were there the people of Qingniu Town who died in the Demon Tide years ago, but also the commoners who died halfway during the Qiuhuo period.

Although with the help of the supreme crown…

Xu Xi could perform multiple spatial transfers using Space Magic.

But since the Red Dragon was here, having a Sanctuary-level Red Dragon act as a mode of transport was also a good choice.

“No problem, no problem!” The Red Dragon's face lit up with joy.

As it agreed, that heart-stopping, fatal threat finally dissipated from its heart, returning to its normal state.

The Red Dragon breathed a sigh of relief.

But immediately following that, as the commoners began to climb onto its back one after another, the Red Dragon felt something wasn't quite right.

“This lizard is so big, one pot wouldn't fit it all.”

“I think roasting it would be good.”

“No, no, it definitely has to be eaten raw to have enough kick!”

The simple commoners were chatting about topics that made the dragon tremble.

It was a very strange experience.

The Red Dragon knew that the commoners on its back were weak—not a single one was stronger than it—but hearing those fantastical words, the Red Dragon felt a sense of nervousness.

It was as if…

These bumpkins really had eaten dragon before.

Eaten it with delight, eaten it with experience.

“It must be that I haven't slept enough; my head isn't clear yet,” the Red Dragon smiled with relief and flapped its wings to take flight again.

Xu Xi, meanwhile, released his Domain, enveloping the remaining people and using Wind Element flight to bring everyone toward Yanshan City for settlement.

“The number of people brought back this time is both many and few.”

“Yanshan City is quite large. Settling everyone shouldn't be a big problem.”

“At least there's no need to worry about food and shelter.”

Azure sky, piled-up clouds.

The high-speed flight kicked up whistling winds and waves.

But whether it was the piercing light or the biting wind, all were blocked by Xu Xi's barrier, allowing the people to boldly open their eyes and observe the world in the sky.

“Wow—”

The commoners exclaimed in wonder.

Some even danced with joy, feeling as if they were about to become heavenly soldiers riding on clouds and mist.

Yes, just heavenly soldiers.

They stubbornly believed that a position like the legendary Heavenly Emperor could only be held by a great person like Xi-geer, while heavenly generals would be like Little Master Wu.

“A-Niu, can you tell me how everyone came over here?”

During the flight.

While controlling the Domain, Xu Xi asked A-Niu beside him.

The honest man scratched his head, his expression somewhat confused and dazed: “Brother Xu, I'm slow with words, so I might not explain it very clearly.”

“I was originally asleep, but then I woke up and was in the town. My mother and everyone else were in the town too.”

“And then…”

“One day…”

A-Niu clumsily recounted everything he had seen from his perspective.

Mysteriously coming back to life, mysteriously returning to Qingniu Town, and then suddenly one day, Wu Yingxue appeared and asked if everyone wanted to go see Xu Xi.

The people happily agreed.

Thus, they were sent to Earth by Wu Yingxue.

“Where is Yingxue?” Xu Xi was curious; why would the Princess, who had achieved the Supreme, leave herself behind?

“Little Master Wu seemed to say…” A-Niu thought hard and gave an uncertain answer, “She had to go kill some monsters first and would come later.”
