192 Tianqiong, The Azure Dragon 1

Beneath the empty sky, Elder Liu stepped back as he cast a long shadow on the ground. He panted heavily as his gaze fell upon the White Tiger who was stalking towards him.

Even though Yunyao’s power had decreased substantially, she was still a Divine Beast and in regards to battle experience, she was significantly more experienced than Elder Liu.

Elder Liu was being pushed into defeat…

He laughed and the laughter was filled with sarcasm and disdain, "Gu Ruoyun, you cannot imagine the number of Martial Kings in the Dark Yin Palace! Even if I’m unable to kill you today, you will experience being hunted by those Martial Kings! Do you really think that you can escape them?"

Actually, Elder Liu was only saying this to scare Gu Ruoyun. He was hoping for her to let her guard down so he could kill her when the White Tiger was not watching!

Unfortunately, Gu Ruoyun was calm and as still as water from start till now. She kept a level gaze on Elder Liu and her expression told him that she had not believed a single word he had said.

Just as Elder Liu was trying to think of another way, the young woman’s voice rose from the silence of the courtyard.

"Yunyao, it’s getting late. We should head back."

In other words, it was time for this old man to die!

However, when Elder Liu heard this, he misunderstood and thought that Gu Ruoyun had been terrified by his threats and wanted to escape. He wanted to say something sarcastic in retort but at that moment, the White Tiger stretched out her neck and, without giving Elder Liu any warning, pounced on him.

Thump!

Yunyao lifted her claws and hit the old man, sending him flying. She then sat her enormous body on Elder Liu, almost causing the old man to vomit blood.

His face turned gray as he said angrily, "You’re cheating! You had attacked without warning me! That’s not fair!"

If he had kept his guard up, the White Tiger could not have sent him flying with a single blow.

Gu Ruoyun rolled her eyes and said, "Didn’t I just tell Yunyao that it’s getting late? It’s time for us to head home."

Elder Liu spat out a mouthful of fresh blood. The expression in his eyes was no longer as high and mighty as before. They were now filled with rage as he glared at Gu Ruoyun.

He was really going to be irritated to death by her!

Anyone who had heard what she said would have assumed that she was calling the White Tiger off. Who would have known that the beast would attack without any warning! Was he given a fair fighting chance?

"It’s not fair?" Yunyao laughed coldly and gracefully lifted a paw before saying, "When you had captured the person who stood beside my Master, did you think about fairness? When you went against someone who was not of your level, someone who was not prepared to fight you, did you think about fairness? In this world, only the strong are respected! Only victors are crowned! If you can be victorious, then there’s no such thing as fairness."

Elder Liu shuddered and felt as though he was being crushed by a mountain; he could hardly breathe or move…

"Gu Ruoyun, are you really not afraid of the Dark Yin Palace?" he gritted his teeth and asked.

Gu Ruoyun glanced once at him before instructing, "Yunyao, finish this!"

"Yes, Master."

Yunyao lifted her claws and advanced with a cold smile on her lips. What was so great about the Dark Yin Palace anyways? As long as those two men were by her Master’s side, even a hundred Martial Kings would be insignificant.

Did this guy really think that the Dark Yin Palace can save him?

Yunyao aimed her sharp claws made at Elder Liu’s neck. Just at that instant, a strong power accompanied by a dragon’s roar could be heard across the sky and it caused the ground to shake.

Her claws were a few centimeters away from Elder Liu’s neck as Yunyao looked up at the dark clouds rolling in the sky. In that moment, several emotions flashed across her face - surprise, excitement, and a look of yearning…
