Reborn as a Hatrack in the Mystical Land-Chapter 821 - 71: Murder and Robbery

As Long Ao landed, it was like a shell hitting the ground, instantly blasting a deep pit over a foot deep.

The corpse of the Dark Demon Alchemist was also shaken several meters away.

After stepping into the Dan Realm, Long Ao’s Dark Power had at least doubled compared to before.

In a chaotic battle earlier, facing dozens of Dark Heavenly practitioners, he cut through them like harvesting wheat, forcibly carving out a path of blood.

Compared to the Long Ao seen by Yue Jinghua in Wohua Imperial City earlier, the Long Ao before him did not resemble an elderly man over a hundred years old.

His originally graying temples had returned to jet black, his face was unlined, looking as if he had rejuvenated, appearing at most thirty or forty years old.

It seems that after stepping into the Dan Realm, his appearance also transformed.

"Friend, are you enemy or ally? If you are a resident of Four Symbols City, there is no need to harm the camaraderie over today’s matters. Killing the Dark Demon Alchemist, let’s claim half each. Once we return to Four Symbols City, City Lord Changsun will surely reward us handsomely," Long Ao found Yue Jinghua’s aura slightly familiar but couldn’t discern Yue Jinghua’s appearance and thus dared not make quick judgments.

Enemy or ally, it’s difficult to distinguish for the moment.

Although the Dark Demon Alchemist is dead and the Dark Demon Army is severely wounded, their main force is still stationed not far away. That Demon General named Hong Lei possesses unfathomable strength; Long Ao dared not engage for long.

Having grown up on the battlefield, Long Ao was skilled in assessing situations in unclear enemy conditions. He restrained his killing aura, keeping a good distance from the Dark Demon Alchemist’s corpse and secretly determining Yue Jinghua’s location.

"Old rascal, trying to trick me into revealing myself, dreaming on. Once you see it’s me, you’ll likely kill me instantly," Yue Jinghua thought to herself, her nerves taut, secretly channeling the Nine Revolutions Star Creation Technique, accumulating Dark Power.

"Friend, why don’t you speak?" Long Ao had gauged the opponent’s strength to be beneath Dan Realm, emboldening him to slowly approach the Dark Demon Alchemist’s corpse. "If you don’t show yourself soon, I’m taking this corpse."

A gleam of fierce determination flashed simultaneously through both of their eyes.

Long Ao’s Dark Energy surged, pulling his shoulders, executing a sudden thrust, accurately targeting Yue Jinghua’s Invisibility location.

For a Dan Realm Expert, Concealment is ineffective; Long Ao could find Yue Jinghua’s tracks through her breathing and subtle Dark Energy fluctuations.

Yue Jinghua was already aware of this, the Lianyun Great Sword in her hand crossing before her chest.

"Bang," with Long Ao entering the Dan Realm, the strength of his physical body was another level higher, this collision’s impact was at least a thousand pounds, enough to shatter a boulder instantly.

Yue Jinghua’s Lianyun Great Sword was extremely hard, comparable to a Divine Shield.

The sword hummed loudly from the impact but also absorbed most of Long Ao’s collision force, the remaining force pushing Yue Jinghua several meters away.

"You’re not my match; a word of advice: Invisibility doesn’t serve much use against me. Once I employ Domain Power, your form will have nowhere to hide," Long Ao snorted. Yue Jinghua evading his earlier collision was beyond his expectations.

Yue Jinghua remained silent.

The longer the delay, the worse it for him; Long Ao was growing impatient.

He roared, "Domain Pressure."

Long Ao’s Domain Power, like Long Ao himself, was very dominant, under its effect Yue Jinghua felt as if the air around her was suddenly compressed.

"You can’t escape it; my Domain Power, named Dragon Crush, transforms all matter within it, including people, into powder. If you don’t show yourself, you’ll be crushed into smithereens by my Domain Power," Long Ao’s words weren’t empty threats. Once his Domain Power was unleashed, all surrounding plants and debris turned to dust.

If not for Yue Jinghua’s body being forged through Dragon Blood Refining, she would have likely been crushed to powder too.

Despite this, Yue Jinghua’s current situation wasn’t good. Her face was flushed from the pressure, her whole body’s bones emitting a frightening cracking sound, seemingly ready to shatter at any moment.

As Long Ao thought the Hidden Dark Practitioner was about to be crushed into powder, a voice resembling chattering teeth echoed out.

"The strength of the Dragon War Empire’s National Guardian General is only so much," thorns called Hidden Deer Antler suddenly protruded from the ground.

Long Ao cursed endlessly, not expecting the opponent had set countless Hidden Deer Antlers here.

As Long Ao dodged, a Star Light ominously appeared beneath him.

Once the Star Light emerged, within it appeared a vaguely graceful woman.

That woman had eyes sky-blue like the firmament, golden hair flowing in the wind.

"You are?" Long Ao didn’t expect such a peerless beauty to be hiding in the shadows, no matter how steadfast his mind, it briefly swayed.

The golden-haired woman smiled at him; abruptly, amidst hissing snakes, the peerless beauty’s hair transformed into countless small snakes, her beautiful face split into three, her long legs transformed into a snake tail, and a chilling cold light shot from her blue eyes.

Long Ao felt intense pain in his eyes, like numbness spreading through his body.

The serpents wrapping around his ears, nose, and throat, their venomous fangs piercing his skin.

"Demon Beast," Long Ao was wildly startled, wanting to turn his head, yet it was already too late.

Long Ao felt numbness below his waist.

The gaze of the three-headed Medusa Queen was enough to make every man on earth lose their Divine Soul and simultaneously lose life, petrified in an instant.

In midair, another Summoning Array appeared, and a Fiery Fire Stork clad in Fire Feathers swooped out, its fire-filled plumage transforming into fireballs exploding beside Long Ao.

Amid the cries and screams, the dragon’s body fragmented in the flames. 𝐟𝐫𝕖𝗲𝘄𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝕧𝐞𝚕.𝕔𝕠𝐦

"Cough," after Long Ao vanished in the flames, Yue Jinghua suddenly revealed herself, face showing signs of relief surviving the calamity.

After the three-headed Medusa Queen killed Long Ao, she immediately transformed back into a little girl with golden hair, clinging to Yue Jinghua’s embrace, coquettishly pleading, while the Fiery Fire Stork circled around Yue Jinghua, crowing triumphantly.

"You’ve worked hard," Yue Jinghua patted the three-headed Medusa’s little head, stowed both Dark Beasts, checked Long Ao’s corpse, and collected the Dark Demon Alchemist’s body as well.

Before the Dark Demon Army arrived, she employed Instantaneous Movement, returning to the outskirts of Four Symbols City and reunited with Shalman and others, sneakily entering the city.
