Supreme Dragon Seal

The wind swept across the barren landscape, weaving its way through forests and mountains, evoking a profound sense of ancient grandeur. It whispered as if mourning the long centuries of solitude endured by the land.

A swift and agile Wind-chasing Leapord ran through the woods, glaring fiercely at a delicate figure running ahead.

How dare this weak human try to control the king of leopards!

Just then, the delicate figure stumbled over a tree root that had suddenly grown out of the ground, letting out a cry of alarm as she fell to the ground. She turned around abruptly, despairingly staring at the leopard that was leaping towards her.

At that moment, a silvery shadow suddenly appeared, its sharp claws slashing through the air like silver lightning.

“Ah…” came a sorrowful cry from the Wind-chasing Leopard as its throat was mercilessly slashed open. Gasping for breath, it collapsed to the ground, succumbing to its fatal wound.

The silvery shadow stood still. It was Huan Ying who had been transported from the underworld.

“It’s you…hmph…” Huan Ying coldly snorted, regretting a bit for saving this dark-skinned girl.

“Huan Ying.” The girl muttered in disbelief.

Soon, several figures appeared from the woods, including Jin Gang, Thirteen, Xiao Jiu, Sa Lingling, and Yan Fangfei, who rode on the Golden Lion King.

“Senior sister!” The girl struggled to stand up, her face full of excitement.

“Xiao Li, how did you end up here alone? Where is Dia?” Yan Fangfei was also very excited. It had been half a year since they fell under the cliff. After struggling to survive in life and death, coming back now, there was always a sense of nostalgia.

Xiao Li bit her lip, tears streaming down her face, sobbing, “Dia is dead. After we got separated, we encountered the Barbaric Bears. I was saved by an elder of Heavenly Mountain Peak, but Dia didn’t make it…”

Jin Gang hummed, “Separated? Clearly it was running away. Serves him right for dying!”

In fact, Yan Fangfei had already heard from Huan Ying, but no matter how wrong Dia was, he was already dead. Being from the same sect, she wouldn’t say anything more.

“Sister, did the City Lord really save you? What about him?” Xiao Li asked.

The group fell silent, the atmosphere suddenly becoming tense.

“My young master risked his life to save us from danger, but we don’t know how he is now, unlike some cowardly people…” Huan Ying said coldly, speaking very emotionally affected by her sadness and worries.

In comparison, Dia abandoned his companions to escape for his life.

While Qi Bei put himself in danger to save his companions.

This is the difference!

“He…is dead?” Xiao Li asked awkwardly. She didn’t want to run away at first, it was a mistake. But now, it was useless to say anything.

“You’re the one who’s dead! My young master won’t die even if you die a hundred times.” Huan Ying suddenly looked up, staring at Xiao Li angrily.

Huan Ying used to be obedient and well-behaved by Qi Bei’s side. But now that Qi Bei’s life and death were unknown, her emotions were unstable. Plus, she originally had the Sky Cat bloodline, having a part of a cat’s temperament. She was very docile to her master, but wild and ferocious to anyone else.

“Xiao Li, what happened after you were saved by the Heavenly Mountain elder?” Yan Fangfei asked.

“After that, I met Elder Yu, but he said he was going to save you and I don’t know where he went. When that elder from the Heavenly Mountain Peak met others from the Beast Manor, she handed me over to them. But they wanted to go to the Dragon Phoenix Valley to comprehend the illusion, so I walked around alone and met this Wind Chasing Leopard. You know my Flame Leopard was seriously injured and may not recover, so I thought I’d tame this Wind Chasing Leopard as my magic pet.” Xiao Li said.

“Xiao Li, your magic beast was only at level four, how can you tame a level six magic beast? Are you really that reckless?” Yan Fangfei scolded when she saw Xiao Li remain silent. She sighed and said, “Elder Yu wishes me dead, why would he have any good intentions to save me? Where is Dragon Phoenix Valley? Let’s go there and wait for our Eighth Senior Uncle and the others.”

Under Xiao Li’s leadership, the group headed towards Dragon Phoenix Valley. Due to the disappearance of the colorful mist of illusions, many powerful experts had flown out of the valley, making the sky above lively for a while.

At this moment, Xiao Li saw seven Heavenly Mountain Peak disciples waiting at the entrance of the valley. She went up to greet them and introduced Jin Gang and the others.

However, these seven disciples were very arrogant. Except for nodding at Yan Fangfei, who was also a disciple of the Holy Land, they ignored Jin Gang and the others.

“Are you waiting for someone?” Yan Fangfei asked.

“Yes, our elder went to find our foolish companion who insisted on entering Dragon Phoenix Valley despite being weak. She thinks she’s a princess in the secular world and still a princess in Heavenly Mountain Peak,” the lead female disciple said discontentedly, full of envy and jealousy. It was because Princess Ming Yue was directly accepted as a disciple by Katie and had passed the third checkpoint of Heavenly Mountain in a short time, becoming the focus of all the disciples. Even some elders of Heavenly Mountain Peak praised her. As for her, she didn’t have a master when she entered the sect and only advanced step by step to become a high-ranked mage. However, she also passed the third level at the same time as the Ming Yue, so she felt psychologically unbalanced.

“Princess? What princess?” Yan Fangfei asked with interest.

“It’s Princess Ming Yue of the Golden Leaf Empire,” another disciple answered.

“Yeah, I heard that her fiancé is a country bumpkin lord. How ridiculous!” Another female disciple mocked.

Princess Ming Yue of the Golden Leaf Empire, fiancé is a lord…

Yan Fangfei felt something was not right. It couldn’t be a coincidence.

“Slap!”

Before this female disciple could react, she received a harsh slap on her fair and tender face, which immediately swelled up.

“You’re asking for death! If you mention my young master again, I’ll cut off your neck.” Huan Ying stared at this female disciple coldly, filled with killing intent.

Jin Gang also snorted in anger and his arms bulged.

Thirteen and Xiao Jiu disappeared in an instant, presumably hiding in the shadows, ready to strike at any moment.

Yan Fangfei sighed inwardly. The people around Qi Bei were really devoted to him. She had only spoken ill of Qi Bei once, and Xiao Jiu had slapped her in response.

However, since experiencing danger with Qi Bei, she had to admit that he had such a charismatic personality that could make people devoted to him.

She understood this, but the disciples of Heavenly Mountain Peak didn’t, and so the two sides erupted into a fight.

“Stop!” Suddenly, a sweet and soft voice sounded. Although the voice was soft enough to make people feel numb, it carried an irresistible authority.

A huge force instantly pushed back both sides, even Thirteen and Xiao Jiu, who were hidden, were forced to reveal their figures.

Then, a charming and graceful figure descended from the sky, and her enchanting eyes swept over everyone, making them all speechless.

“Xiao Qin, you tell me, what’s going on?” Yao Rao asked the leading female disciple. Although her presence suppressed the group of Jin Gang, it was obvious that she was also someone who defended her own.

So the female disciple named Xiao Qin explained what had happened.

Upon hearing this, Yao Rao was surprised, and soon realized that Jin Gang and the rest of them were Qi Bei’s companions, and they were angry because of the insult to Qi Bei by the disciples of Heavenly Mountain Peak.

However, if Qi Bei’s companions were here, where was Qi Bei?

Yao Rao’s heart was slightly panicked. Had something happened to Qi Bei?

“You are… the people of Qi Bei, the fiancé of Princess Ming Yue?” Yao Rao asked, and the disciples behind her were all surprised. It couldn’t be such a coincidence.

“Yes.” Jin Gang hummed.

“Then let him come out and give an explanation to Heavenly Mountain Peak.” Yao Rao said calmly, but her heart suddenly raced.

Jin Gang and Huan Ying’s eyes dimmed, with a sad look in their eyes.

Yao Rao’s heart suddenly felt a piercing stab. This couldn’t be happening. Qi Bei couldn’t have any problems.

“Let him come out, otherwise, I’ll kill you all.” Yao Rao gritted her teeth, and her beautiful eyes shot out bone-chilling cold light.

The icy tone of Yao Rao’s voice startled the disciples of Heavenly Mountain Peak, but then they were moved one by one. Elder Eighteen really cared for them. She wouldn’t tolerate any injustice against her disciples. This was what a true elder was like.

“Elder…” Yan Fangfei spoke up, wanting to explain.

“It’s none of your business, shut up.” Yao Rao said sharply. Her heart felt as if it had been stabbed a thousand times. If she didn’t take a deep breath, she feared tears would roll down her cheeks.

“Let him out.” Yao Rao repeated, her voice now tinged with a hint of sadness.

At this point, everyone felt that something was not quite right. Eighteenth Elder seemed not angry, but rather sad.

“Are you his guards and maids? Your young master is dead, why are you still alive? You two are the shadow guards of the Nord family. Your master is gone, how dare you continue to live?” Yao Rao said coldly to Jin Gang, Huan Ying, Thirteen, and Xiao Jiu.

“Who is daring enough to speak to my people like this?” Just then, a deep voice sounded.

Everyone looked over and saw a bald teenager walking swaggeringly towards them from a distance. He had taken only a few steps but had already arrived in front of them.

Qi Bei…

Yao Rao saw Qi Bei and tears almost welled up in her eyes. But fortunately, she reacted quickly and took a deep breath to regain her composure. Her heart, however, was still pounding.

Soon, Yao Rao noticed that Qi Bei’s appearance was similar to the one in her embarrassing dream in the illusion she experienced in the Dragon Phoenix Valley.

“Young master.”

“Master.”

“City Lord.”

Jin Gang, Huan Ying, Thirteen, Xiao Jiu, and Sa Lingling all exclaimed excitedly.

Qi Bei smiled warmly and punched Jin Gang’s chest, then hugged Huan Ying, patted Sa Lingling’s shoulder, while Thirteen and Xiao Jiu hid themselves again.

At this moment, Qi Bei glanced at Yao Rao, furrowed his brow, and said, “How dare you bully my people? Find me a place, and we’ll fight for three hundred rounds so as not to hurt your younger generation behind you.”
