The Ironclad Earth Dragon let out a thunderous roar, and a foul wind swept across the courtyard, forcing everyone to squint against the onslaught.
At the forefront was the old woman, knocked to the ground by Chen Li, still in shock. She widened her eyes in terror as she beheld the colossal beast. Before she could even scream, the Ironclad Earth Dragon swallowed her whole.
Ah!
The Old Madam was paralyzed with fear, her heart racing as she pointed at the bloody giant, her voice trembling as she shouted, "Quick, go notify the Marquis! Hurry!"
The guards exchanged grave looks, drawing their weapons to shield the Old Madam behind them.
"You beast, do not act so arrogantly!"
A burly Captain of the Guards roared as he charged forward. Gripping a massive axe with both hands, he infused it with his Vital Energy and swung it down fiercely at the Ironclad Earth Dragon's head.
Mountain-Cleaving Axe!
The axe sliced through the air with a whoosh, as if it could cleave the very atmosphere itself, striking hard against the Ironclad Earth Dragon's skull.
Clang!
A resounding clash echoed, sending sparks flying. The Captain's expression changed; the Ironclad Earth Dragon's defense was astonishingly formidable! His Mountain-Cleaving Axe was a top-tier weapon of the Xuan rank, yet it hadn't even broken through its scales!
The Ironclad Earth Dragon roared in pain and fury, swinging its massive head and sending the Captain flying.
"Captain!"
Seeing this, the other guards unleashed their own martial techniques in a furious assault against the Ironclad Earth Dragon.
Raging Wind Blade Technique!
Blazing Palm!
Golden Bell Shield!
In an instant, flashes of blades and swords filled the air, true energy surging everywhere; the entire courtyard transformed into a battlefield. However, these attacks landed on the Ironclad Earth Dragon like mere tickles, failing to inflict any substantial damage.
Roar!
The Ironclad Earth Dragon continued to roar angrily, its enormous tail sweeping out and knocking several guards who couldn't dodge away. It spewed forth waves of scorching flames that reduced nearby houses and trees to ashes.
The Old Madam cowered among the crowd, witnessing this apocalyptic scene before her. She was terrified beyond belief, her face pale as paper.
"Useless! A bunch of useless fools!" she screamed in despair. With so many people, they couldn't even handle a single beast!
At that moment, the Ironclad Earth Dragon suddenly turned its head, its crimson Giant Eye fixating on the Old Madam in the crowd. It opened its massive mouth and charged toward her.
"Old Madam, watch out!" The guards gasped in shock, abandoning their opponents as they desperately rushed to save her.
However, it was all too late!
The Ironclad Earth Dragon moved with lightning speed, reaching the Old Madam in the blink of an eye, its gaping maw ready to swallow her whole.
Just at that critical moment, a flash of golden light appeared, and a figure emerged like a ghost before the Old Madam, striking down on the Ironclad Earth Dragon's head with a single palm.
Bang!
A tremendous sound echoed as the massive body of the Ironclad Earth Dragon was forced back several steps by the impact.
The crowd stared in disbelief and fell to their knees, bowing in unison. "We pay our respects to the Marquis!"
The newcomer was none other than Wuding Hou, Chen Yuantu!
Dressed in a long blue robe, Chen Yuantu's gaze was sharp as lightning. He didn't even glance at the crowd; instead, he coldly fixed his eyes on the colossal beast before him, as if it were merely an ant.
The Ironclad Earth Dragon seemed to sense the threat and nervously twisted its enormous body, emitting low growls from its mouth. The foul stench of decay surged forth from its rancid breath.
"Vile creature! How dare you trespass the barrier and escape your cage? You shall not leave today!" Chen Yuantu roared, his voice booming like thunder, causing pain to everyone's eardrums.
As soon as he finished speaking, Chen Yuantu's figure flickered and he moved first, striking down on the Ironclad Earth Dragon's head once more.
Bang!
The sound was like a clap of thunder, shaking the entire Chen Manor as if it were trembling.
The Ironclad Earth Dragon's massive body flew backward like a kite with its string cut, crashing through a section of the courtyard wall and kicking up clouds of dust.
Gasp!
The crowd collectively inhaled sharply, unable to believe what they were witnessing.
This Ironclad Earth Dragon was a third-tier magical beast, equivalent to a peak Innate Realm human warrior—impervious to blades and fire—yet it had been sent flying by Chen Yuantu with just one strike?
It was simply terrifying!
Roar!
In pain, the Ironclad Earth Dragon let out a furious roar as it struggled to rise from the ground. Its crimson Giant Eye locked onto Chen Yuantu with intense hatred and rage.
On its incredibly hard scales appeared a clear imprint of a palm, while surrounding scales shattered into pieces, revealing its bright red flesh underneath.
"Overestimating oneself!"
Chen Yuantu snorted coldly, his figure flashing once more as he appeared before the Ironclad Earth Dragon. With fingers curled like claws, he unleashed a fierce gust of wind and struck at its head.
With a tearing sound, akin to ripping fabric, the Ironclad Earth Dragon's proud defense crumbled before Chen Yuantu, revealing deep gashes down to the bone on its head, blood gushing forth.
Roar!
The Ironclad Earth Dragon let out a pained howl, its massive body thrashing violently in an attempt to shake off Chen Yuantu.
"Die!"
Chen Yuantu shouted angrily, veins bulging on his hands as he exerted force with his fingers, crushing the Ironclad Earth Dragon's skull.
Bang!
Like a watermelon bursting open, the dragon's enormous head shattered into pieces, red and white splattering everywhere, an unbearable stench filling the air.
This once-mighty beast was thus crushed to death by Chen Yuantu, its head obliterated beyond recognition.
After completing this act, Chen Yuantu did not even glance at the massive corpse but stood with his hands clasped behind his back, his gaze sweeping over the kneeling crowd.
As the dust settled, the air was thick with the nauseating scent of blood. Chen Yuantu stood like a god of death, his icy gaze surveying everyone.
The guards fell silent, not daring to breathe too loudly for fear of provoking this ruthless Marquis.
"How shall we respond?" Chen Yuantu's voice was deep and authoritative, carrying an innate intimidation.
One guard trembled as he stepped forward and reported everything that had transpired to Chen Yuantu in detail.
Upon hearing this, Chen Yuantu's heart sank in shock, involuntarily shifting his gaze to the corner where Chen Li and Shen Qingyue stood.
Could it be that they deliberately used this opportunity to destroy the prison barrier?
The moment this thought crossed his mind, a glimmer of murderous intent and cruelty flashed in Chen Yuantu's eyes.
His gaze locked onto Chen Li and Shen Qingyue, turning icy in an instant.
He approached them step by step, Vital Energy surging within him as he raised his hand.
Since I cannot kill you, then I shall cripple you now!
The two children seemed oblivious to everything; one wore an expressionless face while the other stared blankly ahead. Faced with such intense killing intent from him, they showed no reaction whatsoever.
