Chapter 228: Chapter 156: Light Emperor Battle Dragon (Additional)

The waters far from the battlefield.

Three female merfolk each rode their sea beasts, observing from a distance.

"Princess Consort Jia, why aren’t you leaving?"

"Princess Consort Lu, aren’t you staying too?"

"Haha, I get it. You’re just like us." freewёbnoνel.com

"I don’t understand what you mean..."

"You actually understand what we’re saying."

"No, I really don’t."

"Do you really need me to spell it out?"

"Fine, I get it. We’re all the same."

The three exchanged cryptic remarks that only they understood the meaning of.

Though they were the companions of the City Lord, they were normal female merfolk. If they hadn’t been assigned to monitor the City Lord, how could they possibly marry a female merfolk?

Even if she was a formidable warrior among the merfolk.

Driven by natural biological needs, each of them found other partners among the merfolk soldiers — specifically, those captains now accompanying them and battling the humans.

As they witnessed the increasingly turbulent energy waves and raging seawater in the distance, their expressions turned tense.

"Roar..."

Suddenly, golden light burst forth from not far away. A colossal steel dragon, radiating golden luminescence, split the seawater and charged toward them at great speed.

This steel dragon had a body of white steel coated with golden armor, and its back carried two pairs of steel wings.

The steel wings were sharp yet small, clearly not meant for flight.

Faintly visible, a figure clad in golden armor stood atop the steel dragon’s back, wielding a massive golden sword.

"What is that?"

"A human-made dragon-shaped mecha?"

"No, not a mecha. It’s a steel dragon beast. It’s a Beast Tamer!"

"He’s coming for us."

Their expressions turned cold as they started releasing waves of sound, which spread out to summon nearby sea beasts.

"Aaah..."

"Roar..."

Instantly, countless dark shadows swam rapidly from all directions, converging into a terrifying sea beast tide that ferociously enveloped the steel dragon beast.

On the Emperor Battle Dragon’s back, Qin Shou gripped the Aurora Sword, showing no fear facing the incoming tidal wave of beasts.

"Haha, just in time!"

Qin Shou laughed, initiating his Advanced Breathing Skill. Boundless Star Power surged into the Emperor Armor and the dragon at his feet.

The Emperor Armor needed no explanation, and the parasitic monster counted as a cultivated beast too.

The Emperor Battle Dragon had also been integrated with the Perfect spine-eating poison as well as the recently conned — or rather, obtained — Cosmic Creature Metal and Cosmic Meteorite Gold, making it a semi-mechanical cultivated beast.

Simultaneously enhancing two cultivated beasts, the Advanced Breathing Skill connected the energies of all three together, amplifying their power significantly.

"Roar!!"

Qin Shou swung the Aurora Sword, and the Emperor Battle Dragon unleashed a furious roar as the energy thrusters under its steel wings ignited with flames, escalating its speed.

"Boom..."

In an instant, the Emperor Battle Dragon charged into the beast tide, tearing through with its indestructible steel body.

Meanwhile, Qin Shou stood firm atop the dragon, steady as an ancient tree rooted in the ground, unmoving like a mountain.

"Hum!!"

The Aurora Sword hummed gently, launching waves of energy blades that sliced the sea beasts knocked aside by the dragon into halves.

At the same time, Qin Shou removed the Aurora Shield from his chest, deflecting the energy beams fired by the sea beasts one by one.

From afar, the golden light within the beast tide grew increasingly blinding, as sprays of bright red blood tinted the seawater with crimson.

The next moment, dragon roars erupted, sea beasts wailed, and golden light surged dramatically.

"Roar..."

The Emperor Battle Dragon drove the beast horde back, roaring furiously as it emerged.

The expressions of the three female merfolk drastically changed upon seeing this.

"How is this possible?"

"This is bad..."

The three patted their sea beasts, sending forth their terrifying Six-star beasts into battle.

Without hesitation, they turned and fled into the distance.

Partners could be replaced; they only had one life — better to bolt.

Meanwhile, as three Six-star beasts ferociously charged toward him, Qin Shou raised his shield in his left hand and sword in his right before merging them into one.

"Clack..."

The Emperor Battle Halberd!

"Kill!"

Qin Shou roared.

Armor, dragon, shield, and sword united into one, and their combined golden energy coalesced into a brilliant gold radiance.

"Buzz!"

The Emperor Demon Suppressing Annihilation Slash!

A streak of golden light flashed by, sweeping past the three sea beasts in an instant.

"Aaah..."

The three sea beasts suddenly slowed down and stopped, now floating lifelessly in the water.

The shimmer in their eyes rapidly faded.

"Boom!!"

The energy within their bodies exploded, creating a dark underwater current that spread at high speed to all directions.

Yet the golden light showed no signs of stopping, catching up to the fleeing three female merfolk in mere moments.

"Hum!!"

In an instant, golden sword energy sliced through them, leaving the three female merfolk defenseless and turning them into shattered remains.

The golden light dissipated as the sword and shield separated.

Waving his hand, Qin Shou gathered the fragmented remains from the sea, swept them into the Space Gate using his Star Power.

"All done!"

Qin Shou snapped his fingers, embedding the Aurora Shield on his chest as the Aurora Sword transformed into golden light and fused into the Tai Chi Diagram at his waist.

Sitting casually atop the Emperor Battle Dragon, he opened the system interface, preparing to enhance Zhi Yin.

"Gurgle gurgle..."

Just then, the currents ahead surged ominously, as a visible merfolk army rapidly approached.

Qin Shou raised an eyebrow — since they’re here, might as well make one last haul.

No, make it a big haul!

Opening System Space, Zhi Yin leapt toward Qin Shou, affectionately rubbing against his head.

"Haha, I’m wearing armor, Zhi Yin. You can’t rub against me!" Qin Shou laughed.

Zhi Yin paused before crossing her arms and pouting, "Master, Zhi Yin doesn’t like you anymore."

"Haha, be good, Zhi Yin. Let’s play a game."

"A game? Okay, okay."

"Alright, but change your appearance first, then we’ll play."

"Okay, okay..."

Moments later, the City Lord Mermaid led her army, surrounding Qin Shou.

On the Emperor Battle Dragon’s back, Qin Shou stood clad in golden armor, holding Zhi Yin in his arms with the Aurora Sword pressed against her neck.

Seeing this, the City Lord Mermaid flared up in anger, her energy erupting to form a miniature vortex around her.

Suppressing the urge to tear Qin Shou into pieces, she clenched her teeth and shouted harshly.

"Damn human, release Zhi Yin now!"

Before Qin Shou could speak, Zhi Yin, now in the guise of a merfolk, began her maiden performance with an expression of fear on her small face.

"City Lord Sister, save Zhi Yin, Zhi Yin is so scared..."

Tears welled up in Zhi Yin’s eyes, her pitiful expression earning silent applause from Qin Shou.

Women — naturally born actresses.

These tears came as easily as flowing water and couldn’t even be washed away.

The City Lord Mermaid, seeing Zhi Yin’s tear-stained countenance, felt her heart crack.

If anything happened to Zhi Yin under her jurisdiction, not only would the Royal Merfolk blame her, but she’d lose any chance of returning to the royal family.

And all those treasures would’ve been given for nothing.

How could she not be heartbroken?

"Human, release her. I’ll guarantee your safe departure."

The City Lord Mermaid softened her tone, trying hard to appear gentle.

Qin Shou snorted coldly, "Why would I trust merfolk like you? None of you are any good... ow..."

Mid-sentence, Zhi Yin suddenly bit him, her gaze filled with fury.

Master, what are you implying?

You’re my Little Mermaid, not a merfolk. I wasn’t insulting you!

Hmmph, I don’t care.

Alright, alright, the Master was wrong.

The two exchanged glances...

Seeing this, the City Lord Mermaid’s heart started racing.

Dear heavens, don’t provoke this man further, or you’ll get yourself killed and drag this lord down with you!

"Young man, please don’t harm her. State your conditions; we can negotiate."

She quickly tried to pacify him.

Clearing his throat, Qin Shou continued, "My demand is simple. Bring me ten thousand Earth Core Energy Crystals, and I’ll consider releasing... this little darling."

Joy lit up the City Lord Mermaid’s face. "Fine, fine! This lord agrees, but I don’t have that many on me. Young man, wait briefly while I send someone to fetch them."

"No way. I don’t trust you; I need my cultivated beast to follow your people and retrieve the Earth Core Energy Crystals."

Qin Shou abruptly made this demand.

Cold intent flashed in the City Lord Mermaid’s eyes — fine, I’ll comply for now. But once Zhi Yin returns safely, this lord will shred you to pieces!

"Fine, this lord agrees."

Qin Shou nodded and gestured. From behind the Emperor Battle Dragon, the Monkey Avatar darted forward.

"A monkey?"

The City Lord Mermaid was stunned — how long could a monkey hold its breath underwater?

Before covering half the distance, it’d likely become a dead monkey.
