Chapter 1037: Golden Dragons (2)
Though the Golden Dragon race overheard the conversation of the cultivators from the Immortal Sun Emperor, they can still feel those greedy eyes lingering all over their dragon bodies as if watching a fat meat exposed for everyone to see as a rare delicacy. Those who had overheard the conversation between Shen Taiyang and his generals, like the two principals from the Black Cloud Academy, who didn’t know how to laugh or not. These people are treating the dragon race as a food ingredient. If these golden dragons learned about this they might lose themselves to hatred. After all, this is worse than being called a loach.
The Great General, Shen Jueyang and his subordinates did as the Moon Goddess had told them to do. Provoke the golden dragons making them approach them instead of them flying out of the formation.
"Hey! Yellow Loaches! Did anyone tell you before that when you curl up into a circle you look like a yellow poop!" Shen Taiyang shouted.
Such a childish provocation yet this one move had violated two taboo words that the Golden Dragons hated the most. Being called a loach is annoying but it wasn’t enough for hatred. However, being called yellow poop was something they hate the most. As this is what the other dragons used to call them as an insult.
The moment the great general Shen Taiyang had shouted such a thing everyone in the battlefield including the meditating Immortal Star Emperor were dumbfounded. The golden dragons look like they had lost their soul for a moment as if digesting the shouted words about them just now. When they realized what they had just heard, hatred filled their hearts. Who would like being called a poop just because of their color?
The Immortal Star Emperor opened one of his eyes lightly before closing it again and mumbling, "This man truly says everything without holding back."
ROARS~
"How dare you!!? Spoke such insulting words!!!"
"Kill him! Kill him!!"
"How dare he insult our golden dragon race!?"
The Great General Shen Taiyang sneered and arrogantly said, "Who would have time to insult you yellow loaches? Aren’t you used to being the weakest among the dragon race?"
"What is it? Do you truly think you are the best now that the pure bloodline of the Dragons are gone? You are dreaming~. The best dragon lineage is still alive. When they come back one day you loaches that look like poop would be the first one to get exterminated!"
"Ha~ dreams are truly meant to be enjoyed when sleeping. It is called delusions when one is awake after."
Shen Jueyang’s mouth shouts out things that people would usually think twice saying when the dragon divine beast race is involved. After all, the Golden Dragon race is already one of the pure blood Divine Beast Clans in the Land of the Beasts.
ROAR~
"Attack him! Kill all of them!" Jin Guangyao commanded with a scarlet red face covered in veins popping all over him. He unhesitatingly commanded his clansmen to kill these humans who didn’t know their place. Even though Shen Taiyang is one of them, he doesn’t care.
He didn’t believe that after a few hundreds of years had passed that this great general is stronger than him or his clansmen. They had accumulated strength all these years and had suffered enough as well. They knew that their betrayal was not a good thing but what can they do? The golden dragon’s bloodline truly cannot be compared to the black dragons, crimson dragons and white dragons. It was because they were always the last among the dragons that they didn’t hesitate to kill their own kind just to ascend above them.
Shen Taiyang’s smile widens as these silly golden dragons were indeed provoked by him and started attacking them even without them leaving the range of the invisible formation Yue Xuexia had made to protect the rest of them. Right now, the Moon Goddess kept his promise with the Immortal Sun Emperor to keep her hand to herself unless the lives of the others were truly in danger. The golden dragons didn’t know that they had fallen into a trap. The moment these golden dragons entered the formation, countless chains appeared around them instant;y restraining them.
"What the hell are these chains!?"
A golden dragon exclaimed as it tried to struggle out of its suppression. Unfortunately for them, these chains were made by Yue Xuexia, using the heavenly dao chains in her as reference. This chain not only weakens the cultivation realms of those who were caught. It also suppressed their movements making it easier for Shen Taiyang and the rest to kill them all.
"Everyone, don’t hesitate to kill them instantly! Separate the edible parts for the non edible ones~!" said Shen Taiyang.
The other soldiers and general behind him all cheered happily and said, "Yes! For the sake of the feast!"
The golden dragons who were caught were all helpless under the restraints of the formation. Since the formation was exposed. Not only the golden dragons were captured by the golden chains but everyone who had entered the range of the formation was not included in the list of allies in the formation master’s mind. In short anyone the Moon Goddess didn’t see as comrades would be chained. Shen Taiyang and the others only need to kill them all, seeing them this defenseless.
Yue Xuexia and Yue Xuehua focus more on their siblings who were being enlightened and are now in a state of selflessness. If one disturbs them now, not only will their enlightenment feel they would be badly injured as well. There is also the Immortal Sun Emperor, Shen Jueyang who is undergoing a tribulation to become a Great Emperor.
The defensive formation that isolated a whole space is what covered the range of the Immortal Sun Emperor’s Tribulation. It seems that while fighting against his trials, the divine punishment was issued as well. Each time he kills a tribulation being, he would also be struck by lightning. He was only bearing the pain and only didn’t get burned thanks to the blessing of lightning in his body. It’s his tribulation, so pain cannot be avoided but burned wounds from lightning strikes can be removed. At least that’s what the blessing from two generations of primordial lightning gods had given to him. He will never die under the lightning.
He had already noticed the moment the Immortal Star Emperor had arrived. He noticed that as soon as he arrived, his eyes lingered more on Yue Xuehua but also looked at Yue Xuexia as if comparing them. But in the end, he almost made a mistake and got a cut near his chest, Yue Xuexia noticed this as she had been watching over him even with the distance between them. She was so angry that the reason for this carelessness was thanks to this Immortal Star Emperor. There is also the fact that Yue Xuehua is showing such timidity as if suffering from some PTSD. The Moon Goddess noticed this as well and was enraged.
This man in front of them had not only caused Shen Jueyang to be distracted and even made her sister unhappy. Yue Xuexia had never been the kind of woman to ignore the harm brought to the people she cared for. That’s why she didn’t hesitate to pull her sword and stabbed him. She only avoided his heart because she noticed the stunned expression on Yue Xuehua’s face when she had stabbed him. Even though she doesn’t like this man at all since he can move Yue Xuehua’s emotions, she spared his life. But kicking him was for a reason, like showing her temper if he offended her.
When Shen Jueyang saw this scene of Xing Xieju being kicked like a dog, he started laughing as his mood turned into delight. He had killed more freely and no longer cared that Xing Xieju was around. After all, the Immortal Star Emperor is more interested in Yue Xuehua than himself or the Moon Goddess which gives relief in his heart.
Now that the golden dragons had appeared, the Immortal Sun Emperor recalled about the Obsidian Dragon God, Long Tianhei, who had come with them and is living with his wife in the Moon Goddess’s small world. He immediately reached Yue Xuexia through divine transmission. Something similar to telepathy.
[Xue’er, let Yangyang handle the dragons. Once that old worm in front makes a move let Tianhei handle him and get his revenge.] These were the words that suddenly appeared in Yue Xuexia’s mind. She recognized the voice and knew that this person was Shen Jueyang.
Yue Xuexia responded the same way and said, [Alright. You take care. If you get careless again and almost die, you can sleep in your own room tonight.]
[It will never happen again. I promise,] said Shen Jueyang, almost pleading.
[Focus on your tribulation,] said Yue Xuexia.
The conversation these two had exchanged was only known to the two of them.
