Chapter 479

~7 min read 1,318 words

As Xiao Li's palm landed on the Dragon Soul.

In an instant, a buzzing sound echoed. Under the gaze of the Many Loulan High Priestess and everyone else, the originally stone-like Dragon Soul showed many cracks, and golden light burst out from the cracks, dazzling and brilliant.

"How could this be?"

The High Priestess was extremely shocked, first shocked by the mysterious girl Xiao Li appearing on the Goddess stone statue, and now shocked by the many cracks appearing on the Dragon Soul.

The Dragon Soul was something left by the Dragon God in the ancient era.

It had been embedded in the center of the Goddess stone statue's eyebrows for countless years, always in a stone state. But the Many Loulan clan had guarded this object for many years and knew that the seemingly stone-like Dragon Soul possessed earth-shattering power of creation.

It was this power of creation that had been spawning water sources for countless years, which was why the oasis where Many Loulan was located had never dried up and had continued to this day.

People in the desert had always lived by chasing water sources.

For countless years, in the desert, I don't know how many tribes had risen and how many had perished.

The ancient kingdom of Many Loulan had always existed; this was a miracle created by gods.

But today, in front of the High Priestess.

The Dragon Soul had cracked.

This was something she could not accept.

Even if Chi You broke into Many Loulan and killed indiscriminately, causing heavy casualties to the Many Loulan people, the High Priestess still held some extravagant hopes in her heart, such as Chi You leaving Many Loulan, and Many Loulan still having some survivors who could rebuild the kingdom on these ruins.

Of course, this all had a premise, and that was that the Dragon Soul still existed.

As long as the Dragon Soul existed, Many Loulan's water source would never be cut off.

The golden light was dazzling, and the cracks on the Dragon Soul grew larger and larger. Finally, the entire Dragon Soul suddenly exploded, and countless stone shells peeled off one after another, turning into a golden ball of light.

"What is this power?"

Chi You's eyes were fixed.

After arriving in Many Loulan, he had actually noticed the Dragon Soul on the Goddess stone statue, but he was not in a hurry to destroy it. One reason was that the power of the Dragon God had a certain degree of restraint on him. At the moment, he had not recovered to his peak state. Even though he had already taken back the Demon Sword, rashly destroying the Dragon Soul might lead to a backlash. Therefore, he planned to wait until his strength recovered a bit more before trying to destroy the Dragon Soul.

Second, he wanted to prove certain things in front of the power of the Profound Lady and the Dragon God.

Of course, there was a third reason, which was that he didn't take the so-called Dragon Soul seriously.

In his view, the so-called Dragon Soul was just the Dragon God leaving a part of his divine power for clouds and rain here. Except for spawning water sources, it essentially posed no threat to him.

He didn't need to be in a hurry to destroy the Dragon Soul.

But now, as Xiao Li's palm landed on the Dragon Soul and the Dragon Soul was activated, Chi You found that he had misjudged.

In its conventional form, the Dragon Soul was indeed just a part of the Responding Dragon's divine power, but no one expected that there would be other mysteries in the center of this mass of divine power.

The golden light burst out, as if a sun had been born out of thin air.

The demonic energy released from Chi You's body and the sword in his hand dimmed a bit when irradiated by this golden light.

Then the golden light extended, and after the golden light dissipated.

Everyone looked intently and saw a giant beast dozens of meters long lying across the sky.

It had the posture of a dragon but had wings on its back.

"Dragon God..."

Looking at this giant beast leaping in mid-air, Chi You was silent for a while and said a name in a complex tone.

This giant dragon with wings on its back was exactly the same as the Responding Dragon Yinglong Gengchen in his impression.

The Responding Dragon was also a giant dragon with wings on its back.

Of course, similar appearance did not actually mean it was the Responding Dragon.

Chi You soon discovered the difference.

"No, you are not Yinglong Gengchen, you are much weaker than Yinglong Gengchen!"

Not only was the body size smaller than the Responding Dragon Yinglong Gengchen, but the power was also much weaker.

Chi You suddenly felt that today was truly interesting.

First, he saw a girl who called herself Xiao Li and had a deep relationship with the Profound Lady. Now, he saw an existence related to Yinglong Gengchen but not Yinglong Gengchen. More importantly, this dragon had been hiding in the Dragon Soul all along, and even he hadn't discovered it.

"It is indeed not the Dragon God!"

On the dragon's back, Xiao Li stood quietly, the breeze blowing her clothes and hair. Her clear eyes looked at Chi You, revealing a trace of sadness.

She was born because of the power of the Profound Lady.

For her, the most profound memory was probably the moment the Profound Lady witnessed the suffering of the world and felt pity, then shed tears.

And why did the world suffer disasters?

Everything was born because of Chi You!

Chi You had a deep relationship with the Profound Lady, being the first person she met when she came to this world. Therefore, even though Chi You walked on the demonic path and the Profound Lady had to help Xuanyuan Emperor defeat him, she did not kill him in the end, but left him a glimmer of life.

Perhaps it was because the Profound Lady was indeed very kind.

Or perhaps it was because the Profound Lady hoped to give Chi You a chance.

But her original intention did not lead to a beautiful ending.

Her kindness instead brought another catastrophe to the world.

When Xiao Li appeared in Many Loulan and looked at the Many Loulan people who died because of Chi You, her heart was extremely painful.

If she had known earlier that Chi You's demonic thoughts were deep and he was obsessed, she should have killed him back then and completely cut off all of Chi You's life.

Of course, now, it was not too late!

Putting away her complex thoughts, Xiao Li stood on the dragon's back and said softly: "It is called Pixiu, the son of the Dragon God. It is a backup plan prepared by the Dragon God for you. Originally, if your demonic thoughts were eliminated and you no longer harmed the world, it would have slept here until it grew up. But since you chose to harm the world, I can only activate the backup plan left by the Dragon God and completely destroy you here!"

"Hmph, that sounds nice, but in reality, isn't it because you can't kill me?"

"Because you can't kill me and are afraid of me, fearing that I will reappear, you left behind various backup plans!"

"But I want to tell you that you couldn't kill me back then, let alone now, relying on the backup plans you left behind!"

While Chi You was speaking, he continued to attack Xiao Li.

Su Xuan's figure flashed, and he suddenly arrived on the dragon's back, standing side by side with Xiao Li. At the same time, the twenty-four flying swords that had been slashed away by Chi You came again, blocking Chi You's offensive.
