Chapter 1139: Only the Weak Land the Killing Blow
Ao Yuetang transformed into a dark shadow and slowly drew closer to the battle in order to prevent them from getting too far away.
The Western lizard dragons were extremely bloodthirsty, while the evil dragons were all brutal and insane creatures.
This was a very evenly-matched battle.
Ao Yuetang stopped about ten thousand feet away from the battle and continued to conceal herself.
“Looks like this battle is about to wrap up soon. I love such close battles like this. Even the victor will often have sustained extremely severe injuries by the end, hehe…”
Ao Yuetang’s eyes narrowed as a dangerous, cold light flashed from within.
In a battle like this, it was very important to a.n.a.lyze who would be most likely to survive until the end.
The lizard dragon seemed to be unleas.h.i.+ng extremely ferocious attacks and had the upper hand, but its strength was slowly waning, thereby indicating that it was unable to keep up a barrage of such high-intensity attacks for much longer.
In contrast, the evil dragon was mostly on the defensive side, and it seemed to be on the back foot, but each and every one of its actions was extremely calculated and composed. There was even a chance that it could charge power in order to land a killing blow in an instant…
The evil dragon was about to win!
Ao Yuetang’s expression immediately sharpened, and two bright blue short swords appeared in her hands. The swords were glittering and translucent, and they emitted fearsome energy fluctuations. Her entire body was tensed up, and it was clear that she was about to strike soon.
The two dragons roared as they fought, and their battle was audible even from over five kilometers away.
Ao Yuetang continued to bide her time as she worked out a course of action in her mind.
Next, I’m going to launch a surprise attack with my Frost Wing Illusionary Slash in order to slice off its wings, then I’m going to use my Dragon Blood Soul Vanquis.h.i.+ng Slash to decide the…
Boom!
A white light with terrifying power suddenly descended from the sky upon the two battling dragons, and it was as if they were being struck by heavenly judgment!
Ao Yuetang saw an extremely dazzling sword projection explode before her eyes.
Sword intent then surged forth for close to ten kilometers!
“Howl!” the two dragons let loose wails of anguish.
Ao Yuetang also let loose an anguished wail of her own as she was swept into the air by the resulting shockwaves, and she flew back with blood gus.h.i.+ng from her mouth before falling to the ground in an extremely sorry state.
The sword projection dissipated.
Ao Yuetang lay sprawled on the ground, staring blankly ahead.
Who am I? Where am I? What happened?
The two battling dragons had both been sliced cleanly in half and were dead as dead could be. Her prey had left her just like that, without leaving anything behind…
Not only that, but she had also inexplicably sustained severe injuries from the shockwaves that erupted from that attack…
“Hahaha… Two birds with one stone!”
A man in a flowing white robe descended atop his brick and swiped two storage rings as spoils of war.
“Huh? Wait, it was three birds with one stone?”
An expression of pleasant surprise appeared on the man’s face when he noticed the flabbergasted woman laying sprawled onto the ground nearby.
“An… An Lin!” Ao Yuetang’s eyes widened, and she threw up another mouthful of blood due to being excessively worked up.
An Lin turned to Ao Yuetang with a confused expression. “You know me?”
Ao Yuetang: “… I’m from the Dragon Court of the Eastern Seas. My name is Ao Yuetang.”
She had no choice but to bring out the Dragon Court in the hope that An Lin would spare her as a favor to her big sister, Ao Xiaowu.
Why wasn’t it a favor to Ao Meng? Ao Meng had already lost all of his dignity to An Lin…
An Lin was shocked. “You’re from the Dragon Court of the Eastern Seas? I’m so sorry! You’re too mundane, so I never even noticed you!”
“Pfff…” Ao Yuetang threw up another mouthful of blood upon hearing this. G.o.ddammit, I know I’m very mundane, but did you have to say it?!
An Lin joined his hands in a slightly apologetic salute. “I was too careless and didn’t notice you there. Any harm I inflicted upon you was purely by accident. I apologize.”
Ao Yuetang was quite taken aback by An Lin’s words and actions.
She had always heard that An Lin was a cruel and ruthless barbarian who listened to no reason. Seeing him in person now, he was actually quite polite and reasonable.
She waved her hands upon hearing this. “That’s alright. I had concealed my aura to try and capitalize on the battle between the two dragons, so it has nothing to do with you.”
An Lin’s expression s.h.i.+fted after pondering Ao Yuetang’s words. “Is landing the killing blow all you can think about?”
Ao Yuetang was confused. “What’s wrong with landing the killing blow?”
An Lin flared up like a justice warrior. “Landing the killing blow is extremely disrespectful to life as well as to your opponents. It may win you some easy battles, but it is a disgraceful tactic that disregards fairness and justice!”
Ao Yuetang was a little dumbstruck by An Lin’s lecture and was momentarily at a loss for words.
An Lin clasped his hands behind his back, and he stood tall as his flowing white robe flapped gently in the wind. A profound yet stern expression appeared on his face. “Using such underhanded tactics will negatively impact your dao heart.
“Only the weak will land the killing blow, the strong choose to engage in full-frontal a.s.saults!
“Only through doing so can one develop the mentality of a powerful being and progress with impediment on the path of cultivation! Only by attaining unshakeable might can you truly be considered to be powerful!
“For example, my last sword attack was able to annihilate the prey and wound the huntress at the same time… This is true power! Understood?”
“Un… understood…” Ao Yuetang replied feebly.
An Lin nodded with contentment before looking up at the night sky while standing atop his black brick.
He came and went like the wind.
After a long while, Ao Yuetang finally came to her senses and slapped her own soft, fair cheeks gently as she looked up at An Lin’s disappearing figure. “Is this guy a nutjob?”
…
An Lin felt like he had just done some solid flexing and was feeling very good about himself.
Seeing Ao Yuetang reminded him of his former self.
The heartfelt lecture he had delivered to Ao Yuetang was also actually directed at himself, as a farewell of sorts to his former self.
From this day forth, he was the Flex King An that would f*ck the heavens and f*ck the earth!
Lord of Transcendence, Tamer of Divine Lightning, Heavenly Lightning G.o.d…
He had to live up to these bad*ss t.i.tles!
After flying for another hour, the sound of a battle erupted in the distance again.
Was there finally another battle?
An Lin’s eyes lit up, and he flew toward the source of the commotion atop his brick.
He had changed his course of action. He was not just going to search for Xiaolan like a headless chicken. At the same time, he was going to destroy all of the Dragon Tribe powerful beings that he encountered!
Thinking about this from another perspective, if he eliminated all of Xiaolan’s potential enemies within the Ancient Tai Chu Realm, then wouldn’t that mean that there was no one that could threaten Xiaolan’s safety?
This was a much better way to do things than just searching for her without doing anything else!
In any case, the lizard dragons of the West were sworn enemies of the human race, and there was no need to mention the evil dragons. Those things definitely had to be slain!
An Lin had no mental burden when taking care of enemies like this.
Just as he was getting lost in his train of thought.
A terrifying burst of power of the divine dao suddenly swept toward him.
This was a battle between two Return to Void Final Stage mighty figures?
An Lin’s heart jolted with shock, and he immediately concealed his aura as he approached the battle.
He was determined to land the killing blow!
