Chapter 62 - Lil Wan"s Breakthrough
"Roar!"
Flapping its wings to rev up its speed of flight, the Tyrannosaurus saw many flying beasts chasing after it. One after the other, they were getting closer and closer to it. The huge head of the Amber Tyrannosaurus turned suddenly.
It opened its big mouth, which in turn stimulated the amber muscles at its throat, and then, it let out an earthshattering roar.
Boom!
Amidst the roars of the Tyrannosaurus, the other beasts that were rus.h.i.+ng towards it suddenly seemed to become kites with broken strings. One after another, they began falling down from the high alt.i.tude they were flying at.
Swis.h.!.+
And right at this moment, the Tyrannosaurus flapped its wings and hovered in a spiral curve, just like an aerial butcher of consummate virtuosity. In the blink of an eye, it swept past the many flying beasts belonging to the Silver Blood Beast Tamers with its incomparably sharp Tyrannosaurus wings outspread.
Within an instant, blood, mangled body parts and feathers were all mixed together. Then they fell from the sky like rain.
"No!"
Seeing this scene, the Silver Blood Beast Tamers who sent their beasts out to kill Ye Xuan were instantly shocked and could only stare blankly.
Each and every one of them went deathly pale.
"D*mned sc.u.m!"
The Silver Blood youth who was commanding the King of Mountain Giants fixed his gaze on the Tyrannosaurus, and his face was so gloomy that it was as if he could squeeze black blood out of it.
"This guy…"
On the side of the Cerulean Planet, Gu Qinghe saw the performance of the Tyrannosaurus and the agony in his heart was intensified.
He truly yearned for such a tyrannical and peerless beast like this one.
Alas, this beast was Ye Xuan"s.
Whoos.h.!.+
At this time, the Tyrannosaurus had killed twenty to thirty Silver Blood flying beasts in one fell swoop. After circling a round in the air, it flew back to its place beside Ye Xuan again.
This time, when the Silver Blood Beast Tamers saw the Tyrannosaurus returning to its camp with such pomp and glory, like a hero returning triumphantly after a conquest, not a single one of them dared send their beasts out to intercept it.
Roar!
The Tyrannosaurus landed back beside Ye Xuan, but Ye Xuan did not even spare it a moment for a brief rest before getting it to fly back into the sky.
Instead, he had a change of mind. He got his Tyrannosaurus to enter the battlefield and willed it to charge towards that incomparably prominent King of Giant Mountains.
Screech!
In the meanwhile, Gu Qinghe"s Thousand Shadows Lightly Breezed Crane had killed several more Silver Blood flying beasts during this time. In addition, Jia Zhengdao"s Straw Goose also descended from a higher alt.i.tude and charged towards that King of Mountain Giants.
"D*mn!"
Although the King of Mountain Giants had two King Kong Vipers who were both at the level of four-star Dark Iron Warriors, beside him, this time, he did not to underestimate Ye Xuan"s Tyrannosaurus like he did before.
"Let"s retreat!"
Seeing the Tyrannosaurus dash towards them from afar, the Silver Blood youth was struck by some unknown thought that no one but himself would know. His wavering expression at that moment revealed his uncertainty, then he waved his hand and led his men into a retreat.
Roar!
Seeing the Silver Blood Clan retreating, right before the valley where they were, all the Cerulean Planet"s beasts let out roars of victory.
At the same time, Beast Tamers of the Cerulean Planet were heartened by the outcome and wore cheerful expressions on their faces.
Earlier on, they all thought that it would be very difficult for them to safeguard and secure this stronghold.
Little did they expect that they would actually end up emerging as victors in this great battle.
"Stop, all of you! Stop chasing it!"
Those of the Silver Blood Clan had merely gave chase for a few hundred meters before retreating back to the valley hastily and successively.
There was no eagerness to advance.
Even if they had Ye Xuan leading the final kill into the battlefield, commanding his Tyrannosaurus into initiating a killing spree, the loss they incurred this time was still much greater than that of the Silver Blood Clan.
It was really inappropriate to continue this pursuit.
"Ye Xuan, you"re awesome!"
When the Silver Blood Clan had completely retreated, Jia Zhengdao, who had gathered with Gu Qinghe and the others at some point in time without them realizing it, was welcoming Ye Xuan together with the crowd.
The moment he reached Ye Xuan, Jia Zhengdao complimented Ye Xuan with a thumbs-up.
Based on his previous experience, he knew that Ye Xuan was able to break the past record of the King of Thousand Cranes, so he had to be an extraordinary figure.
But he had not expected that Ye Xuan was actually so strong.
Just now, it was all thanks to Ye Xuan"s Tyrannosaurus, that suddenly landed an aerial attack on the Flying White Tiger King, which was a four-star Dark Iron Warrior.
Even if he were to manipulate his Straw Goose, coupled with Gu Qinghe"s Thousand Shadows Lightly Breezed Crane"s cooperation, he might not be able to achieve much substantial battle results.
"You"re not too bad yourself!"
Ye Xuan said with a smile.
"Ye Xuan, long time no see. This time, I really have to thank you big time."
Then, both Xu Canchan and Song Jia also got to their feet.
Both of them were blessed by the heavens to be gifted warriors.
It was a pity their beasts were still apprentice-level at the moment and could only put up such a mediocre performance in this great battle.
And they were not able to play a decisive role.
"There"s no need to stand on ceremony. The Silver Blood Clan is the enemy of the entire Cerulean Planet."
These two had left a deep impression on him, to a similar extent at that. He even remembered that Xu Canchan"s beast was a Gigantic Buddha of Metal and Stone
Song Jia"s beast, on the other hand, was a Toxic Emerald Tree Monitor King.
"Alright, let"s drop all these words of civility and propriety."
At this point in time, Gu Qinghe stepped forth to interrupt the few people who were talking and said, "This time, it was indeed no easy feat for us to be able to safeguard this stronghold. And it was indeed thanks to the both of you, Ye Xuan and Jia Zhengdao, for lending a helping hand."
"But we are not yet truly relieved of the crisis that we are facing right now."
"Just like how we were able to enlist external help this time to repel the attack of the Silver Blood Clan, they could also invite outside help and utterly crush us."
"So next, we must still make good use of the time we have to recuperate, and also, to think of a way to drive out all these Silver Blood Beast Tamers who have stepped foot here."
"Then at the entrance of the s.p.a.ce wormhole from where they enter, we have to lay traps and deploy troops to stand guard. Only after we have all these measures in place can we be considered to be completely victorious."
"As for the matter of celebration, we will have to put it off till we have won complete victory of this war."
This frivolous looking youth, who was able to stand out at the most critical moment, was truly worthy of being the descendant of the King of Thousand Cranes. He was someone who could take charge of things and call the shots.
At this time, Gu Qinghe"s gaze also happened to find its way to Ye Xuan.
He walked up to Ye Xuan, winked and said in a low voice that only the two of them could hear, "On account on the meritorious contribution you made this time, I will write off the matter about how you almost killed my baby crane some time back. Let"s just let it be bygone."
Ye Xuan was stunned at his words.
And next, he looked at the Thousand Shadows Lightly Breezed Crane that was following by Gu Qinghe"s side. It was only then did he understand where that familiar feeling he had before came from.
"I…"
"Click-clack!"
But before Ye Xuan could say anything, his ears suddenly twitched. Then he heard a crisp cracking sound coming from his own pockets. Right after that, he could feel the pockets of his body-fitting clothes radiating bouts of gentle warmth.
"This is…"
Ye Xuan felt a jolt in his head, as though he thought of something and immediately began to connect with Lil Wan via mind ripples.
"Just as I thought."
A moment later, Ye Xuan"s eyes lit up.
It turned out that just a moment ago, Lil Wan had finally absorbed all the energy from the verdant pearl that she previously obtained from the Elder of Arrays. As for herself, she had also reached the breakthrough point to advance to the level of a Dark Iron Warrior.
