Archfiends
Upon hearing Long Xingan, who was the most cunning of the four dragon leaders, leverage Mu Yu’s actions against the latter, Long Shentu chimed in. “Mu Yu, you must be executed for your treachery!”
The lie misled those not from Sunshine Valley, especially in thanks to the duo’s status, but Sunshine Valley’s residents had none of it. Since Mu Yu already decapitated two of the four leaders, the residents of Sunshine Valley had no reason to fear publicising the despicable deeds the four were responsible for.
“Mu Yu, kill those two scums, too!” demanded Elder Tiantu.
“Yeah, that’s the only way we’ll be liberated from their oppression and grow as a race!” exclaimed the doctor.
“Is this how you repay Ancestor Phoenix’s faith in you, Doctor?” framed Long Xingan.
“We must also eliminate you, traitor,” announced Long Shentu.
“I had to bear with Jade Wyrm when he tried to kill me just because he wanted to since I couldn’t beat him; however, I won’t take it lying down when you four are fabricating stories for your own convenience and trying to eradicate Sunshine Valley. If we need to eliminate traitors, you two need to be eliminated first!” protested the doctor.
Long Xingan let the protests fall on deaf ears, turning his focus to Mu Yu, instead. “Mu Yu, you will pay for committing murder on our turf.”
“I’ll kill who I want where I want,” responded Mu Yu, initiating the fight.
The two dragons had to abandon their formation in order to escape Mu Yu’s attack. They were reluctant to charge in blindly when they did not have the foggiest idea how Mu Yu harvested Jade Wyrm and Long Keshuang’s heads. Since the two dead dragons were stronger than Long Xingan, the latter had no desire to fight, threatening, “Just you wait. Ancestor Green Dragon won’t let you get away with this.”
“Too bad for you two, you won’t get to see him make me pay.” Mu Yu intended to lure the two to the same swamp he killed Jade Wyrm and Long Keshuang.
The fiends in the vicinity backed away subconsciously upon hearing Mu Yu’s scary voice.
“We’re in a different league to Jade Wyrm and Long Keshuang,” denounced Long Shentu, refusing to let Mu Yu embarrass him.
Indifferent to Long Shentu’s transformation into a tiger, Mu Yu whipped his arm down. Suddenly, their attacks hit a solid wall that bounced their attacks back.
“Have you not embarrassed yourself enough?”
The white energy that frightened off the darkness belonged to the elder adorning green who stepped out from the white light. Fiends lowered their heads upon seeing the copper eyes staring down at them.
“Ancestor Green Dragon is back!” cheered the fiends of Sunshine Valley, genuflecting before their king.
“Finally done snooping around?” remarked Mu Yu, staring straight back into the fiend king’s eyes.
Mu Yu detected the threatening aura in a void during the slugfest with Jade Wyrm and Long Keshuang, yet Archfiend Green Dragon stayed hidden, indicating he tacitly approved of Mu Yu putting them away.
Long Shentu dropped to his knees, reporting, “Anc-Ancestor, Mu Yu not only attempted to annihilate Sunshine Valley but also killed Jade Wyrm and Long Kesh-”
“Have you thought your report through carefully, cub?”
Archfiend Phoenix, attired in a crimson robe and giving off a regal aura, assumed the appearance of a thirty-year-old woman. Her fiery beauty was the type that would keep men at bay.
Despite him nearly wetting his pants, Long Shentu decided to gamble and go through with his lie, claiming, “Ancestor Phoenix, Mu Yu brainwashed the residents of Sunshine Valley with a drug. The four of us immediately came to put a stop to his sinister plan once we found out, yet h-”
Slap!
“Piece of spit-out garbage, you think you can fool us?!”
“Ahem, Phoenix, mind your manners. We have a visitor here,” reminded Archfiend Green Dragon.
“Mind your own mouth! Nobody runs amok in my turf and gets away with it.”
Archfiend Green Dragon shook his head in defeat.
“You two better tell the truth. See those two heads? If you don’t want your heads to roll, give me the truth!” demanded Archfiend Phoenix, standing akimbo.
The two dragons buried their heads, pleading, “Please forgive us, Ancestor.”
“Phoenix, we have an outsider present. We can’t embarrass ourselves even if we must punish them.”
“Outsider? Who? I see Qiao Xue’s lover, who saved my Sunshine Valley’s citizens,” argued Archfiend Phoenix. “If I don’t beat the snot out of you two, I’ll never live it down!”
Whack! Archfiend Phoenix slapped Long Shentu’s face through the ground. She then hauled him out of the ground and slapped his face back the other way, sending him into a new hole.
“Your turn now, Flying Dragon,” taunted Archfiend Phoenix, giving Long Xingan a smirk.
“Ancestor, please, please. I will do anything you say.”
Archfiend Phoenix grabbed Long Xingan by the neck to stop him flying off and proceeded to combo his face.
After watching for a while, Archfiend Green Dragon snapped, “Enough! You already stopped me from preventing the kid from killing to Ascension Realm members!”
“Enough of what? Neither of my hands has had enough. His face hasn’t had enough, either.”
“Big Bro’s kingdom really needs to be fixed,” remarked Archfiend White Ape.
“Indeed. Hold the reins too loose, and they will run loose,” added Archfiend Yujiang, greeting Mu Yu with a nod from the firmament.
