Chapter 738: Winds and Clouds Rise Again

As the sea beasts retreated, the Dragon Race, who had been fighting them, also breathed a sigh of relief.

Although they did not fear battle, the frenzied actions of the sea beasts when they attacked still left them with lingering fear. It was a mad assault that completely disregarded their own lives and that tiny bit of reason, fighting purely on instinct. This kind of attack, which ignored casualties and sought only destruction, left even the brave and battle-hardened Dragon Race feeling unsettled.

After the sea beasts attacking Dragon Island retreated, the sea beasts that had been entangled with the various Divine Domain Dragon Race Elders also dove into the sea one after another, retreating toward the deep ocean. The few Dragon Race Elders also gave a symbolic pursuit for a while before returning to Dragon Island. They could suppress the sea beasts while fighting on the surface, but once they entered the vast ocean, who would win was still an unknown. Moreover, with the enemy's strength unknown, they did not dare to pursue recklessly.

"No wonder the former Lord of the Demon World had no designs on the Endless Ocean; facing these frenzied sea beasts, even the Army of the Demon World would not be able to withstand it!" Luweisi said, frowning as he looked at the beach, which had been completely dyed red with blood.

"It seems we still need to clean up the beach," one of the Dragon Race Elders said, looking at the beach.

At the same time, dozens of Sky Tier Holy Dragons flew out from within Dragon Island and began to cast purification spells toward the beach below. Under the effect of the purification spells, the bloodstains on the beach vanished rapidly, and in no time at all, it returned to how it looked before the battle.

After the battle ended came the time for rest. The Four Symbols Dragon Sword Art that Lingyun had released earlier by borrowing the two holy swords was simply too powerful, having almost completely slaughtered all the sea beasts that had gathered during this period. Even if the sea beasts wanted to attack Dragon Island again, they would need a certain amount of time to gather sea beasts from other places; they would be unable to launch a large-scale attack on Dragon Island in the short term.

"Father, if all these materials were taken to the Continent to be sold, they would surely be able to trade for many things!" The little Princess of the Dragon Race looked at the mountain-like pile of materials taken from the sea beasts in her storage ring, little stars already appearing in her eyes.

"Uh, I heard that the Orc Empire has started eyeing the Three Great Empires again recently, and now the Norton Empire and the Haoxing Empire are actively preparing for war. In this situation, what they lack most is all kinds of strategic materials. If you sell this batch of things, you can indeed have a great harvest!" Looking at Daiweina, who had transformed into a little money-grubber, a trace of helplessness appeared on Luweisi's face. "However, you must be careful; most humans are unreliable, so when you sell these things, you must keep your wits about you!"

"Mm-hmm, I know, you nagging father!" Daiweina responded absent-mindedly, then began to continue calculating how many gold coins the things in her hands could trade for.

"Your Majesty Luweisi, you just said that the Orc Empire has started eyeing the Three Great Empires again? Could it be that they want to stir up a civil war on the Continent again?" Lingyun, who was sitting on a large rock, asked.

In front of Lingyun was a grill several dozen meters long, on which lay the body of a giant Sea Devourer, with an iron pillar as thick as an arm running directly through its body. In mid-air, there were several large hands condensed from Wind Element; some were slowly turning the iron pillar, some were sprinkling seasoning onto the Sea Devourer's body, and others were holding sharp Wind Blades, occasionally slicing off the roasted meat from the Sea Devourer's body and sending it to Lingyun and the others.

Beneath the grill burned a crimson flame; if one looked closely, one could faintly see the shadow of a long sword in the middle of the crimson flame. This crimson flame was being emitted from that long sword.

"Hey, Lingyun, I think if the original Fire Holy Sword Saint knew that his Fire Holy Sword was being used by you to roast meat, I wonder if he would run straight out of the Underworld to settle the score with you!" Luweisi looked at the giant barbecue grill and said to Lingyun once more.

"Rest assured, I don't think he would ever do that, and besides, this isn't the first time the Fire Holy Sword has done something like this!" Lingyun waved his hand dismissively and said. "However, I am quite interested in the matter of the Orc Empire. Weren't they always on par with the Three Great Empires before? How come they dare to come out and stir up trouble now?"

"As far as I know, the Orc Empire seems to have reproduced the legendary Blood Demon Beast, and with this thing as their reliance, they are attacking the Three Great Empires," Luweisi said.

"Blood Demon Beast?" Lingyun's brows furrowed slightly, and wisps of Evil Energy rose in his eyes. "It seems these guys in the Orc Empire are truly not afraid of death! They even dare to touch such a taboo!"

"Taboo? Is the Blood Demon Beast a taboo?" Luweisi raised his brows slightly.

"That's right. The most dangerous thing about the Blood Demon Beast is that after it is summoned, it is extremely difficult to control. When it becomes uncontrollable, it will kill everything with blood around it, regardless of friend or foe, to enhance its own strength. This is the reason why it was ultimately jointly banned by all the forces on the Continent," Lingyun said.

"Regardless of friend or foe? That is indeed a very dangerous point." Luweisi frowned, clearly also very displeased with the Blood Demon Beast.

"Aside from the matter of the Orc Empire, is there any news about the Demon Qi?" Lingyun handed the Sea Devourer meat in front of him to Nia, who was beside him, and asked.

"There is indeed, and it is also quite a troublesome matter. Traces of Demon Qi invasion have already appeared in many places on the Continent. From the news passed to us by the Elf Queen, these Demon Qi are clearly man-made. In other words, there is indeed someone who wants to use the body of the Lord of the Demon World to do some shady things!"

"Hmph, I would like to see exactly what kind of person dares to use the body of the Lord of the Demon World to stir up trouble on the Continent!" Lingyun said with a cold laugh.

"By the way, there is one more thing!" Luweisi said suddenly.

"What else?"

"Recently, there seem to be signs of an Undead riot on the Continent!" Luweisi said.

"Undead riot?" Lingyun raised his brows slightly, then couldn't help but think of the mage he encountered when he arrived on this Continent again, who had summoned the Demon Undead. "What is going on with this?"

"This matter, in the final analysis, is related to the throne of the Norton Empire. Didn't the princes and princesses of the Norton Empire fight for the right of succession to the throne before? One of the princes seemed to have the support of an Undead Mage and summoned Demon Undead as his aid. But good times didn't last long; it seems that because that Undead Mage was too showy, he was actually assassinated!" Luweisi said.

"Assassinated? Then shouldn't the Demon Undead he summoned have fallen into slumber again?" Lingyun's eyes darkened.

"If that were the case, it would be fine. I don't know if it's because of the influence of the Lord of the Demon World's body, but those Demon Undead not only didn't fall into slumber, but instead began to summon Demon Undead in various places on the Continent! Now quite a few people have taken action to slaughter these Undead, but these Demon Undead are quite formidable, which has instead caused them to lose quite a few men," Luweisi said, taking a large bite of meat.

"Demon Undead? Undead?" Lingyun muttered, not knowing what he was thinking.

"Anyway, I don't think this Continent will be able to be peaceful for long. Tsk, how much time has passed, and someone is already impatiently running out to stir up trouble!" Luweisi muttered.

"Indeed, the Continent is truly rising in wind and clouds again!" Lingyun listened to the things Luweisi told him and couldn't help but shake his head.
