Chapter 42: The Powerhouse Who Controls A Dragon

That figure wore a well-tailored black tight outfit, making his figure look even slenderer.

He stood behind the Silver Dragon's head with his hands behind his back, his face shrouded in a thin layer of energy mist, making it hard to see clearly.

But that calmness and indifference overlooking all living beings pierced through a distance of hundreds of meters, directly oppressing people's hearts.

Seeing a living Dragon for the first time.

Zhou Huai was also shocked by this highly impactful entrance style.

A bounty of one million Daxia Coin could actually attract a powerhouse of this level?

This gesture was simply too grand.

"Jasmine, what… what level of Professionals is that?" Zhou Huai lowered his voice and asked the girl beside him who was already trembling like a sieve.

"I… I don't know…" Jasmine's voice carried a heavy crying tone, her teeth chattering up and down.

"My spirit eagle… doesn't dare to go out… as soon as it goes out, it will be discovered by that Dragon!"

She took a deep breath, as if using all her strength.

"But… but a beast tamer who can control a Dragon, the professional grade… is at least A-Rank! The Rank… I'm afraid… I'm afraid it's above Rank 50!"

Rank 50!

Zhou Huai's heart skipped a beat.

This had completely exceeded the scope he could understand at his current stage.

Right at this moment, deep in the Old City District, several equally tyrannical auras suddenly erupted!

"Roar——!"

The Waste Capital Corroder that had been lured away by Yasuo earlier rushed out from the underground parking lot again, roaring up to the sky, dark green acid liquid gathering in its mouth.

"Hisss!"

In another abandoned building complex, the huge head of the Burrow Stalker poked out, its turbid vertical pupils locked firmly onto the Silver Dragon in the sky.

"Jie——!"

Amidst the sharp screeches, the figure of the Shadow Panther appeared on the roof of a tall building, its whole body exuding ominous black fog.

Several elite BOSSes entrenched in the Old City District actually united under the oppression of the Dragon's might, rarely launching a provocation against the invader in the sky!

The next instant!

Dark green acid spears, mixed with sharp claws condensed from shadow energy, as well as invisible mental shocks, whistled from all directions and shot towards the Silver Dragon in the sky!

However, the man in black on the Dragon's back did not even move at all.

The Silver Dragon just contemptuously shook its head.

A layer of naked-eye-visible silver light shield instantly emerged around its body.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

All attacks fell on the light shield, only stirring up ripples, and were completely resolved, unable to even make the light shield sway a bit.

Casually.

The Silver Dragon slowly opened its huge mouth and took a deep breath.

Between its chest and abdomen, a dazzling white-gold light lit up.

"Ang——!"

Accompanied by a high-pitched Dragon roar, an incomparably thick white-gold Dragon Breath, as if a heavenly river pouring backwards, poured down!

Wherever the Dragon Breath passed, distorted ripples appeared in space.

The hard cuticular armor of the Waste Capital Corroder was as fragile as paper in front of the Dragon Breath, instantly melting and vaporizing!

It failed to even let out a scream, and its huge body turned into flying ash in the white-gold flames.

The Dragon Breath swept across, plowing a deep charred mark on the ground, and the buildings and ruins along the way were all annihilated.

The other arrogant elite BOSSes, tainted by the edge of the Dragon Breath, also dissolved rapidly like a lit candle.

One blow!

Just one blow!

The several powerful BOSSes entrenched in the Old City District were slaughtered completely!

The surviving low-level alien beasts were so frightened by this divine might that they experienced Soul Flying Away and Spirit Scattering, making bursts of frightened wails, and began to flee frantically outside the Old City District.

For a moment, the entire Old City District seemed to be staging a doomsday escape.

In the sky, that indifferent voice finally sounded, like a god's judgment, clearly transmitted into every corner.

"That buddy named Yasuo, I know you're right down there."

"Come out obediently now, come with me, and I guarantee I won't kill you."

"Don't harbor any fluke mentality. If you don't come out proactively, I will completely destroy this Old City District."

"By then, you will definitely die!"

Jasmine completely collapsed, her legs went soft, and she collapsed to the ground, leaving only endless despair in her eyes.

"Bo… Boss… What… What should we do?"

"This person is too strong, we are simply not opponents… We will die…"

Zhou Huai, however, appeared exceptionally calm.

He turned around, controlling Yasuo, and even showed a faint smile on his face.

"He's looking for me, what are you so scared for?"

Jasmine was stunned by these inexplicable words.

Aren't we in the same group?

She still understood the reasoning that when one prospers, all prosper, and when one suffers, all suffer.

Although… although they had known each other for less than two days.

Zhou Huai no longer paid attention to her confusion and continued, "There's not much time left."

"Now, tell me your address in Donghai City."

Jasmine was completely dazed.

At this critical juncture, why did the Boss ask where her home was?

Could it be that he wanted to take refuge at her home?

But what use would that be?

The key is that it's simply impossible to escape from here, okay?

Her mind was in chaos, but she still subconsciously blurted out an address.

"No. 127, Lilac Road, Changning District, Donghai City…"

Zhou Huai nodded, pulled out an unpretentious space ring from his embrace, and threw it to her.

It was precisely the space ring obtained from the corpse of that unlucky Young Master Mo.

Jasmine caught it flurriedly, looking blank.

"Boss… What do you mean by this?"

Zhou Huai did not answer, and said quickly and briefly, "Next, listen to me."

"In a moment, I will go out and lure him away."

"After he leaves, you immediately escape the Old City District and return to Donghai City."

"Wait for me at home!"

He paused, word by word, exceptionally clear.

"By then, I will go to your house to find you, understand?"

Jasmine nodded in a dazed manner.

But she quickly reacted, her eyes filled with worry and incomprehension.

"Boss! You… How do you plan to escape from his hands? Under his feet is a real Dragon!"

Zhou Huai smiled.

"This is not something you need to worry about."

After speaking, he leaped forward with his whole body and vaulted directly out of the second-floor window.

In the cold wind, only a clear sentence was left.

"Remember, be sure to wait for me at home!"

At the same time, the Silver Dragon in the sky had lost patience.

It began to continuously spew small-scale Dragon Breath, destroying the buildings of the Old City District.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Abandoned buildings collapsed with a bang in the white-gold flames.

Countless alien beasts that failed to escape turned into charred charcoal under the Dragon Breath, making shrill screams.

The entire Old City District had already turned into a sea of fire.

Just at this moment, a figure, bathed in thunder light, soared into the sky from a ruin and steadily landed on the roof of a tall building that had not yet collapsed.

It was Yasuo.

The man in black on the Dragon's back saw this, the corner of his mouth curling up into a slight smile.

"You're finally willing to show your face."

Zhou Huai also smiled, looking up at the behemoth in the sky.

"I didn't expect that a mere one million would be able to attract a powerhouse like you to make a move."

The man in black shrugged indifferently, his voice carrying a bit of laziness.

"No way, beast taming burns too much money."

"Raising a Dragon is very expensive after all."

"Moreover, solving you is just a matter of convenience, why not do it?"

He paused and continued, "Alright, stop the small talk. I don't have any killing intent towards you. Next, do you plan to surrender yourself, or should I do it?"

"I'm only responsible for taking you back. As for the grievances between you and the Zhou Family, it's none of my business."

The smile on Yasuo's face did not diminish.

"In that case, I surrender."

As he spoke, he actually threw the Wind-Breaker long sword in his hand onto the ground and raised both hands.

The man in black seemed a bit surprised, but still nodded with satisfaction.

"Those who know the times are brilliant."

He gently patted the Dragon's neck beneath him.

The Silver Dragon let out a low moan, slowly folded its wings, and began to descend towards the roof of the tall building where Yasuo was.

The huge shadow completely enveloped Yasuo.

The fierce wind stirred up dust and sparks.

One hundred meters.

Eighty meters.

Fifty meters!

Just at the moment when the Silver Dragon was less than thirty meters from the roof, and that huge Dragon head was almost close at hand!

In Yasuo's eyes that seemed to have given up resistance, a terrifying brilliant light suddenly erupted!

"Right now!"

[Lightning Rush]!

His figure instantly turned into a tortuous thunder, advancing instead of retreating, rushing straight towards the Dragon!

The target was not the Dragon, but the man in black on the Dragon's back who had always been calm and unhurried!

"Seeking death!"

The man in black seemed to have expected it long ago, and just snorted coldly.

The Silver Dragon reacted even faster, not even needing its master's command!

It suddenly opened its huge mouth!

This time, it was no longer a tentative breath.

But the — [Annihilation Dragon Breath] that gathered terrifying energy and was enough to burn mountains and boil oceans!

Hiss la——!

Yasuo's figure, in mid-air, was completely swallowed by that disproportionately thick white-gold light pillar.

No screams, no struggle.

The thunder light instantly went out.

That unrestrained figure, along with all the equipment on his body, was instantly decomposed and vaporized under that terrifying high temperature, failing to even leave a trace of ash.

The Dragon Breath did not diminish in momentum, fiercely bombarding the tall building where Yasuo had previously stood.

"Boom——!!!"

The entire building of dozens of stories, as if erased by an eraser, began from the middle to silently annihilate a huge hollow, and then collapsed with a crash, stirring up dust all over the sky.

The man in black looked at this scene and couldn't help shaking his head gently.

"He actually refused to surrender to the death, what a real man."

"What a pity."

He drove the Silver Dragon to hover in the air for a moment, and after the dust cleared slightly, slowly landed on the ground turned into a piece of glazed glass.

He had to find Yasuo's corpse.

Even if it was already a charred corpse, he had to take it back to report for duty.

However, he searched carefully for a long time.

The ground was melted by the Dragon Breath and re-solidified, smooth as a mirror.

Not to mention a corpse, not even a charred bone or a fragment of equipment was left.

Found nothing.

The man in black frowned slightly, somewhat puzzled.

This is… burned clean?

Shouldn't be.

Although his Dragon Breath was extremely powerful, it shouldn't be so powerful that not a single trace was left.

He thought about it and finally could only attribute it to the opponent's Rank being too low and his body being too fragile.

Perhaps he was really completely evaporated.
