Chapter 428

In just a few minutes, Arthur and Lucy were already far away . The White Tiger dived underground and transformed into a Bone Shark which drilled into the ’soft’ ground . Although he escaped, Arthur was still feeling restless as if someone is still watching him .

Who else could it be but the butler, who arrived in front of lair’s entrance just a few seconds after the couple departed . With a frown on his scarred face, he surveyed the destroyed area and spotted a dazed Angelina .

"What happened here?"

Hearing the old man’s voice, Angelina snapped out of her daze and stared back at the old man, who inspected her body and breathed a sigh of relief when he found no fatal injuries . In fact, except a few burn marks or frozen spots, she was perfectly fine .

"They fought against the Holy Dominion, this... is the result . "

The old man rubbed his chin as he contemplated the situation . He glanced all around him then flew North after telling Angelina to enter the dragon’s lair . She won’t be able to help him so she must at least acquire a few treasures from the cave .

"What’s the meaning of this? What are you doing here?"

Arthur turned a deaf ear to the shouting red-haired youth and silently meditated . No matter how many times he shouted, the Flame Crown Prince didn’t recklessly cross the line . Elo Huo, his cousin, was startled when he saw Arthur . He dragged his closest brothers and told them to leave this place and search somewhere else in this lair .

The moment he saw Arthur, he knew it won’t end up good if they provoke him . He learned that the hard way five years ago when he lost an arm . Due to the nature of Dark Magic, he wasn’t even able to restore it which hindered his progress in cultivation .

He resented Arthur but didn’t foolishly act for he knew he wasn’t strong enough . Soundlessly, a group of six youngsters drifted away from the large group of cultivators standing in front of the line drawn by Arthur .

Half an hour passed yet no one was courageous enough to cross the line . Familiar faces appeared such as Shu Ru, Emily, and the princess, who gazed at the dragon then at Arthur, who didn’t spare them even a glance .

When an hour passed, a person finally had enough . He had a burly and muscular body, tanned skin and wore a white robe, he was the youth from the Holy Academy, the Sacred Priest .

He seemed annoyed and wasn’t the patient type, he pushed the other cultivators and walked in front of Arthur .

"Hey! What do you want? Why are you blocking us?"

Arthur lazily opened his eyes and glanced at the tall youth three meters away from him . He dismissively waved his hand and retorted

"This place is rather big and there’s no lack of good treasures, go somewhere else and stop making noise . "

From anger, a vein popped from the youth’s forehead, with creased eyebrows, he heavily breathed and after thinking for a bit, he retrieved his staff and said

"I’m going in!"

He didn’t wait for the other cultivators to join him, he leapt at Arthur, clearly planning to get rid of him .

Unfortunately, the moment his foot crossed the line, the large body of the priest lifelessly fell on the ground .

A cold breeze passed through the shocked cultivators, who felt a chill down their spines . A head rolled next to their feet and only when realized whose it was done they freak out .

. . .

People who knew Arthur like Shu Ru and Emily were shocked by this sudden brutality . From the looks of it, he wasn’t going to let anyone in . They couldn’t even see how the Sacred Priest died . It wasn’t just a random cultivator but one of the top talents of Green-Leaf yet he died... just like that .

Arthur paid no heed to the fearful and strange gazes he was getting, he resumed his meditation as if nothing happened . Many started talking to each other with low voices but no matter how much they planned, they didn’t have enough courage to cross the drawn line .

The Space Dragon, who was ’sleeping’ started groaning in pain as its large stomach started pulsating . A strong, almost suffocating burst of energy was emanating from the dragon’s abdomen . This indicated that the baby dragon was going to come out very soon .

Although some of the present cultivators were greedy for the baby dragon, which can grow up into an extremely powerful ’pet’, most of them were drooling over the stash of various treasures just behind the silver dragon .

Whether it’s Godly Artifacts or one-of-a-kind weapons, there was no lack of them, which only increased their greed .

Wiser ones chose to back off and search the rest of the cave, which is way bigger than it may seem on the outside .

A few minutes after the Sacred Priest was killed, a silver-haired woman entered the crowd . Many were pushing each other to get a better view of the dragon yet when Angelina arrived, everyone let her pass as if it was some unwritten rule .

Once she laid eyes on Arthur, her pupils constricted and she didn’t take them off him for a very long time . Only after thoroughly inspecting every part of his body did she notice the changes between him and the one from earlier . He didn’t have a scar on his eyes and he seemed ’different,’ whether it’s the aura around him or his cultivation, which isn’t at stuck at the peak of the Divine Realm .

There were also two black sheaths hanging on his waist . She glanced at the headless corpse then at the line made by the stick . It didn’t take a genius to understand what’s happening .

"Why are you doing this?"

Her cold voice reverberated in this large cave, causing everyone to shut up and wait for Arthur’s reply with fear and anticipation . They thought that if it’s Angelina then mayhap she can force her way out and grant them an opportunity .

*******

"Even if it’s my own father, I’ll also kill him!"

Lucy coldly stated while staring back at Arthur . They were discussing how to deal with the old man who’s still chasing them . He’s picking up her lingering scent even after she wore the bracelet . Whatever means he was using, it was clearly effective .

Fortunately, they were faster than him but they can’t run forever . The encounter between the three of them is inevitable . As the butler is likely part of her clan and family, he didn’t how to proceed . Either to fight him or keep fleeing .

It was then that Lucy said that, showing no hint of hesitation .

She raised her hand and caressed his cheek while tenderly gazing at him

"For me, I have only one family and that’s you and Saly . It doesn’t matter if they share my blood or surname, such things are meaningless . If it comes down to it, we’ll kill every last one of them . "

Hearing such an answer, Arthur could only nod and give her a tight and warm hug . Due to their joined attack, the very laws of the Secret Realm were damaged . Nevertheless, the old man’s cultivation shouldn’t have returned to Overgod .

’Finally going all out?’

Claud commented while whistling inside that endless white space .

Since they resolved themselves to finish the old man once and for all, they have to carefully prepare the terrain .

What is best than a strong formation which can facilitate the upcoming battle . Lucy still has many powerful bullets that can be used, there’s also [Thousand Waves], Rizaki and the Quad-Spirit, which, by Arthur’s orders, didn’t do anything in the last battle against the Holy Dominion .

The Mirage Formation is the strongest formation in the Mirage Era Hall, unfortunately, the materials needed to set it up are rare . Arthur only had half of the materials so he decided to give up on using it . There is one more formation which is neither a defensive nor an offensive formation; [Elemental Support] it was called and it enhanced the user’s elemental attacks . The issue was it’s based only on five elements so Arthur had to alter it .

More or less, he gained the knowledge of the two formation master from the Mirage Era Hall so altering a formation wasn’t a difficult thing, or so thought Arthur, who didn’t know how painstaking it is to change an already created formation, in fact, it’s even harder than creating one from scratch .

’So if I do this then add more circle runes while injecting the attributes I want to add?’

Arthur asked the knowledgeable Claud, who carefully listened while inspecting the blueprint Arthur was drawing .

’Plausible . Go for it . ’

As he received the green sign, Arthur meticulously set up the ’new’ formation and felt relieved and pleased when he saw the area lit up with various colors, ten, to be precise .

’Ting!’

The user ’Arthur MoonStar’ successfully changed [Elemental Support] to [Elemental Wheel] .

Actually, the formation was some kind of multi-colored wheel with an ominous arrow made from black flames slowly spinning . It hardly resembled a formation but its effects are much-desired and helpful, to say the least .

They enhance any attribute-based skill he uses and its real effect shows itself when combined with [Thousand Waves] . Arthur handed Lucy dozens of Talismans, whether it’s the supportive Light or Space Talismans or the offensive ones like the Death and Dark Talismans .

They can save lives if used in crucial moments, their damage is minimal compared to their raw physical strength or overpowered skills, however, they don’t require cast time and they can hinder a busy opponent .

Meantime, Lucy was using the Nine Star Yin Technique, resulting in six lotuses to floated above her head . They were crystalline and pleasing to the eyes, they didn’t look like a deadly weapon but a treasure that should be put in museums .

The butler should arrive in half an hour at most so the two started preparing the moment they found a suitable place . The formation was set and they were both at their peak state . They used many skills in their previous battle but their absurd Regeneration allowed them to recover in a few minutes .

The only thing that regenerates rather slowly was Mental Power . The couple expanded 5000 Mental Power to use their last skill, nonetheless, they still had more than enough for what’s to come .
