"What? Are you afraid? " The voice of the man shrouded in the shadow was hoarse, gloomy and terrifying, bringing with it a chill that gave people goosebumps, as though it had been drifting in the underground world for thousands of years before reaching the ears.
But it was precisely because of this that this person was the Lord of the Ghost Domain, known as the 'Ghost King' by the people of the divine continent. And the cold youngster standing next to him was his disciple Cui Jianxin.
"Afraid?" The corners of Cui Jianxin's mouth curved in a sneer. It was better if he didn't smile, but when he did, he gave off an even colder feeling, like an eternal iceberg. "I serve the ghost with my body, in the eyes of the world, I am already a wisp of resentful spirit, what is there to be afraid of?"
"If that's the case, why are you so afraid of Xiaoxin?"
"I just don't want to fail again." Cui Jianxin said bluntly, even if the man in the shadow was his Master, he would not compromise. "In the battle of Wind City, the royal families of the nine countries were dispatched together. At that time, there were tens of thousands of troops and tens of thousands of strong cultivators, but what was the result? That evil dragon is still alive and well. "
"He had already become a dead dragon. If it wasn't for Tai-shu Yongsheng of Starry Sky Academy who intervened and fished up the dragon soul to fill his body, his flesh would have rotted away and his soul destroyed. How would he have the chance to commit murder in this world? Tai-shu Yongsheng acted so against the Heavens, is he not afraid of retribution? "
"— —" Cui Jianxin was silent, thinking to himself, who would dare to retaliate against Tai-shu Yongsheng?
Unless the whole human race attacked. But don't forget, Tai-shu Yongsheng was the Dean of Starry Sky Academy. He was already the Dean of Starry Sky Academy before he was born. It was said that before Grandfather began to understand anything, he was already the Dean of Starry Sky Academy.
No one knew how old he was, and no one knew his cultivation level. But as long as his name was mentioned, everyone would feel a lingering fear, knowing that this person was not someone they could afford to provoke.
He whipped the Emperor of a country to death, and the result? That country didn't even dare to let out a fart. The whole royal family acted as if nothing had happened, and quickly elected a new Emperor — — They didn't even bother to send an envoy to Starry Sky Academy to say a few serious words of protest.
Of course, Cui Jianxin would not say such words in front of his Master.
"Master, don't forget that at that time, we even used that Li Muyang's family as hostages and set up an inescapable net, waiting to catch a turtle in a jar … Now that Li Muyang's identity as a member of the Dragon Clan is known to the world, he no longer needs to hide, nor does he need to have any scruples. He can come and go on his own, come and go like the wind, and he can even kill without any scruples. Shouldn't we be more cautious about Li Muyang? "
The man in the shadow pondered for a moment and said in a hoarse voice, "What Jianxin said makes sense. It seems like your failure to slay the dragon last time has allowed you to grow up quickly. "
"Knowing shame makes one brave." Cui Jianxin said. Regardless of whether it was for the sake of his family or his own thoughts, he had to kill that Li Muyang.
"Very well. Last time, we returned empty-handed. This time, he won't be so lucky. His whereabouts had been exposed, and the powerhouses of the nine nations of China had gathered in the Kunlun Ruins. This time, even if he transforms into a dragon again, what awaits him is only the fate of being slaughtered by the world. What we need to do is to be one step ahead of the others and find the traces of that evil dragon. When the time comes, we'll join forces and slaughter it. That dragon's entire body is a treasure. Whether it's its heart, liver, dragon scales, or dragon bones, they're all top-notch medicinal catalysts or materials for refining artifacts. Especially that dragon tendon. If we can extract it, I can use it to complete my Ghost King Bow. At that time, no matter how big the world is, who can avoid my Ghost King Bow's shot? "
"Then I wish Master success in this battle. You'll definitely win this battle."
"Chase after them." Ghost King roared in a hoarse voice, "Continue to look for the traces they left behind."
"Yes."
The dozen or so black-robed men responded and charged forward again.

The snow was endless, and the cold wind was blowing.
A group of white-robed swordsmen stood at the peak of an iceberg, and beneath their feet was a cliff that was ten thousand feet high.
The fog filled the air, and the end of the deep valley could not be seen at a glance.
When the news of Elder Kuang Sha's death reached the Changbai Sword Sect, the Changbai Sect Master flew into a rage, and it was said that even his favorite jade essence cup was smashed to pieces.
Originally, the Changbai Sect Master wanted to personally rush to Kunlun Mountains, and wanted to personally slay the evil dragon who repeatedly humiliated Changbai and slaughtered its elites. But many elders dissuaded him.
"The Sect Master still needs to guard Changbai. Is there anything that Changbai's hundred thousand swordsmen can't solve?"
"When the Sect Master is angry, blood will be spilled in the Divine Land … Let me take the little dragon's head on behalf of the Sect Master …"
"Such a small matter, why does the Sect Master need to personally take action? Isn't this just making a name for that kid? "
※ ※ ※
Under the persuasion of the crowd, the Changbai Sect Master finally gave up the idea of personally taking action. However, he also knew that the little dragon wasn't that easy to get along with. Even Zhong Wuyan and Elder Mad Shark had successively died in his hands. Therefore, it wouldn't be possible to casually send an elder to bring back his head.
The Changbai Sect Master hesitated again and again, and personally went to the sacred place in Changbai Mountain. He invited Changbai Sword Sect's most mysterious and powerful Saint Hall Elder Bai Yun to kill the evil dragon on behalf of the Changbai Sect Master to wash away the shame of Changbai Sect.
"Elder, there are footprints ahead." A young man in a white robe with a long sword at his waist hurriedly ran back and said.
"Where does it lead to?" In the middle of the crowd, an old man with a long sword at his waist asked in a deep voice.
"I don't know where it is."
The old man raised his white brows slightly and said, "The Kunlun Ruins is no longer peaceful. All sorts of monsters have surged in. Everyone is making a racket about killing the evil dragon … How many footprints are there ahead? It's said that the evil dragon transformed into a human and walked with a few stupid kids from Starry Sky Academy. If there's only one footprint, it might not necessarily be that evil dragon. Maybe it's a dragon slayer like us. "
"Elder, there are five footprints of different sizes … It just matches the number of the evil dragon and its companions."
The old man's eyes turned cold, and a murderous look appeared on his face. He said, "After searching for many days, we finally found their tracks … No matter how many people want to slay the dragon this time, that evil dragon must belong to our Changbai Sword Sect. We must kill this dragon and offer its heart and liver to the sect master. The sect master will definitely reward us greatly. "
"Yes." Everyone shouted in unison.
"Should we inform Elder Bai Yun?" An old man beside the old man asked.
The old man pondered for a moment and said, "Elder Bai Yun comes and goes without a trace, and he has his own plans … Maybe he has already found the footprints we found. Let's not talk about it for now. When we really find the evil dragon, we'll inform him. I think he will immediately come to meet us … "
"Understood."
※ ※ ※
"General, I saw several groups of people rushing towards the southeast. They should have found the whereabouts of the evil dragon …"
"Where is that?"
"Heartless Valley."
"Pass down my order, everyone gather at Heartless Valley."
"Yes, general."
※ ※ ※
"What? Everyone is rushing to Heartless Valley? Could it be that the evil dragon has appeared in Heartless Valley? "The middle-aged man in embroidered clothes asked with concentration.
"That should be the case. Everyone is here to slay the dragon. What else can cause such a huge commotion? " The burly man with the huge sword on his back said in a deep voice, "Could it be that some natural treasure has appeared in the Kunlun Ruins? Or could it be that someone has discovered the Kunlun Divine Palace … "
"No matter what, we have to go over and take a look before we can rest assured." The man in embroidered clothes said in a deep voice, "Initially, we followed them quietly to slay the dragon by ourselves and obtain the dragon tendons and dragon bones. However, we didn't expect that evil dragon to attack repeatedly, and the news of its appearance in the Kunlun Ruins has spread throughout China. Right now, there are countless powerhouses gathered in the Kunlun Ruins, and the people are extremely complicated. It's difficult to distinguish whether they're friends or enemies … Therefore, we must be careful with Xiaoxin. Inform the Cui family to hide our whereabouts as much as possible and wait for the time to slay the dragon. We can't fail to slay the dragon and suffer losses in the conflict with other forces. "
"Yes, City Governor."
The man in embroidered clothes stood tall in the wind and snow. His eyes were like an eagle's and a wolf's, fierce and cunning. He said in a deep voice, "Li Muyang, oh, Li Muyang, I originally thought that you were just a plain-clothed young man from my Jiangnan City. You only achieved a little because you were smarter and luckier … I really didn't expect you to be possessed by an evil dragon. You're no longer a compatriot of the human race.
"What's even more unexpected is that the nine nations joined forces and shook China, yet they still failed to slay a little dragon like you. Instead, you turned into a white dragon and floated away … Countless powerhouses have gathered in the Kunlun Ruins this time. It's all for you, the young man who slipped out from under my nose back then. Li Muyang, you've really lived an extraordinary life.
"Li Muyang, will you still be so lucky to escape this time? Will you still be able to attract a powerhouse like Tai-shu Yongsheng to support you like last time? He's already incurred public wrath last time. Does he really think that the nine nations of China can't do anything to their Starry Sky Academy?
"Besides, even if Tai-shu Yongsheng comes again, I'm afraid he won't be able to save you this time, right? How can he have so many dragon souls to fill your body? "Li Muyang, instead of being slaughtered by others, why don't you let an old friend like me take advantage of you … I really look forward to meeting you again."
