Chapter 121: Slapping Xiating in the Face, the Candle Dragon Deals a Heavy Blow to Dong Wanggong!

In fact, even now, Dong Wanggong could not quell the shock in his heart.

First, the Candle Dragon's reappearance in the world was completely beyond anyone's expectation.

Second, the other party's world-shaking strength also truly left Dong Wanggong greatly alarmed.

Needless to say, he also knew full well that if they ever came to blows, how could this so-called Lord of Xiating be a match for the Candle Dragon?

Tricky!

Too tricky!

Therefore, faced with the Candle Dragon's questioning, Dong Wanggong fell silent for a moment, his expression shifting as if thinking of some excuse.

Seeing Dong Wanggong like this, Chen Ku grew even more pleased.

"Hehe, Dong Wanggong, weren't you lot from Xiating just so arrogant before?"

"How come you're now speechless before Senior Candle Dragon?"

"It seems the so-called Xiating are nothing but a bunch of fierce outwardly but weak within, bullying the strong while being cowardly inside."

Chen Ku's face-to-face barrage was, word for word, a heart-piercing assault, utterly merciless.

Hearing his words, the assembled Xiating powerhouses flew into a rage, their eyes blazing, glaring at him in furious exasperation.

The Xiating crowd was infuriated to the extreme.

What a shameless brat.

That Candle Dragon is a powerhouse of the Dragon Clan; what does it have to do with you, Westerners?!

You brat, you can even drag a tiger's skin as a banner?

However, under the Candle Dragon's gaze, the Xiating crowd could not retaliate, feeling ever more stifled.

Beside them, Jieyin and Zhunti couldn't help but shake their heads and laugh.

"This brat..."

Jieyin wore an expression of helplessness.

While Zhunti's expression was strange.

"This brat is still as shameless as ever."

"But... this time it rather suits my taste."

Zhunti said this with a light sigh.

Earlier, they too had been somewhat at a loss, forced by Xiating.

Thus, seeing Chen Ku so brazenly confront Xiating also gave Zhunti a feeling of great relief.

As for his own junior disciple using the Candle Dragon's name to show off?

What's wrong with that?!

Knowing how to borrow influence is itself a kind of ability.

And the countless onlooking beings in the world were already filled with exasperation.

"Shameless, too shameless!"

"How can this brat so comfortably rely on the Candle Dragon's might to jump about?"

"Ah... my habit of feeling embarrassed for others has flared up again—I can't bear to look, truly I can't."

"Besides, Chen Ku not only possesses unrivaled strength and fearless prowess, but his cheek is also this thick—truly invincible."

The beings were genuinely shocked.

As for the Candle Dragon!

Although it knew Chen Ku was borrowing its might and kept mocking it, the Candle Dragon didn't mind.

It loomed high above, looking down on Dong Wanggong.

Seeing him still silent after a long while, the Candle Dragon gave a cold snort, its pressure intensifying.

At this very moment, Chen Ku had not finished, continuing to pour oil on the fire as he said:

"Hehe, what so-called foremost male immortal of the world!"

"Turns out he's just a coward who dares not utter a single word."

"Even though appointed by the Hongjun Dao Ancestor, it's truly a misjudgment."

Chen Ku's words grew ever more blunt, directly calling Dong Wanggong a 'coward'.

As soon as he spoke, the Dragon Clan beings burst into scornful laughter, venting the resentment from being slain by Xiating before.

And these words finally enraged Dong Wanggong.

"You're courting death!"

Dong Wanggong glared at Chen Ku, grinding his teeth, and said coldly:

Hearing this, Chen Ku showed no panic, instead becoming even more arrogant.

"Hmph, what? Not convinced?"

"If you've got the ability, then spar with Senior Candle Dragon to prove your strength."

One sentence, and it left Dong Wanggong speechless again, seething with rage.

This brat, too shameless!

Constantly calling him 'Senior Candle Dragon' is nothing but 'leaning on a mighty backer'.

Moreover, my words were clearly a reprimand of Chen Ku, yet this brat can brazenly drag the Candle Dragon into it?!

Dong Wanggong was utterly speechless!

Immediately, his expression turned suddenly cold and severe.

Regardless of the Candle Dragon's attitude, if Chen Ku keeps provoking like this, I'll be driven to death by anger.

Dong Wanggong could no longer suppress the anger in his heart.

"Damn brat, go die!"

With a roar, the East King Duke suddenly waved his hand and summoned the Muxian Staff.

The Muxian Staff, bearing brilliant divine light, tore through the void and shot straight toward Chen Ku's figure.

If struck, his divine sense would surely suffer heavy damage.

However, Chen Ku seemed to have anticipated this.

In the instant the East King Duke went berserk, he deployed his Godly Foot Travel, and in a thought, he directly... hid behind the Candle Dragon.

Seeing this, all beings were completely dumbfounded!

?????

All beings had black lines across their heads, once again speechlessly shocked by Chen Ku's shamelessness.

But at this moment, the East King Duke had already made his move, and it was irreversible.

The Muxian Staff shot forward, unstoppable, straight at the Candle Dragon's form.

Seeing this, the Candle Dragon's eyes sank, and he immediately let out a cold snort.

Immediately, a mighty, unstoppable surge of aura burst violently from within the Candle Dragon.

Boom!

Heaven‑shaking aura collided with a thunderous boom.

In an instant, the Muxian Staff was flung backward, showing no trace of its power.

The Candle Dragon's aura surged, entangling the Muxian Staff and slamming it heavily onto the East King Duke's body.

His body shuddered violently, his face flushing red.

Then he spat out a mouthful of blood and fled tens of thousands of miles, barely managing to stop his retreat.

This scene made the Xiating powerhouses suck in cold air, their hearts pounding with shock.

After all, to the Xiating powerhouses, the East King Duke could be considered the strongest existence.

Especially with the Muxian Staff and Immortal‑Sealing Seal empowering him, even Chen Ku had previously found him somewhat unbeatable, which is the best proof.

But now, the Candle Dragon merely released a breath, and the East King Duke immediately spat out a mouthful of blood.

The former's power is terrifyingly unparalleled!

At the same time, all beings understood Chen Ku's intention.

He had previously spoken repeatedly, his words utterly merciless, obviously to provoke the East King Duke into launching a fierce attack.

But Chen Ku's ultimate goal was to lure the East King Duke's assault onto the Candle Dragon.

Yin!

Too yin!

Previously, both sides had merely been standoffish, but with the Candle Dragon's move, the meaning became completely different.

In an instant, the tension on the field became even more tense, the oppressive atmosphere leaving onlookers barely able to breathe.

Having suffered this blow, the East King Duke was also furious.

"Candle Dragon, how dare you do this?"

"Do you really think my Xiating has no one?"

The East King Duke was both angry and anxious, shame and indignation intertwined.

He no longer bothered to fear the Candle Dragon's might.

He let out a loud shout, and at the same time cast his gaze toward the many Xiating powerhouses.

They understood, and immediately leapt up, taking their places high in the heavens, vaguely surrounding the Candle Dragon.

Boom!

Boom!

Wave after wave of quasi‑saintly pressure swept out, crushing the void and shaking the universe!

Shadowy and indistinct, each Xiating powerhouse now glared at the Candle Dragon with hostile eyes.

Although they were also terrified, they clearly knew that today's battle concerned the very survival of Xiating, and they could only grit their teeth and press on.

However, seeing this move by Xiating, the Candle Dragon let out a scornful sneer full of contempt.

"Heh, are you preparing to bully the few with the many?"

To this, the East King Duke did not respond directly, but spoke with implied meaning:

"Candle Dragon, no matter how terrifyingly powerful you are, facing my Xiating's countless powerhouses, how long can you hold out?"

Hearing this, the Candle Dragon's smile grew even deeper.

"Oh? Is that so?!"

"Where are the sons of the Dragon Clan? Show yourselves at once!"

The Candle Dragon let out a sudden explosive shout.

As his words fell, the Wuliang Sihai suddenly churned without cease.

All beings clearly sensed that beneath the surging, turbulent waves, auras no weaker than those of Xiating quasi‑saints were gradually reviving.

In the corner, the Black Dragon's pupils shrank sharply, his heart moved.

"Those true dragons that suppressed the sea eyes... have awakened!"
