Chapter 1263: Michael’s Heart Throb

Translator: alyschu

"Xinran!"

I was overjoyed. It was because our chances of claiming the Dragonslaying Sword with Xinran around were much higher than otherwise. Xinran might not be able to beat Mingyu in his prime, but she could definitely beat a mere Lin Qian with some of Mingyu’s power.

She landed beside me and held my hand. "This place is too dangerous, big bro. You shouldn’t be here."

I asked her, "Why are you here, Xinran?"

"Xue Wei told me everything about this place. That is why I came to slay Mingyu myself. He is the former head of all evil. If we don’t manage to kill him, the future of this continent won’t be a peaceful one."

"Ok. I want the Dragonslaying Sword though!"

"Got it, big bro…"

……

Meanwhile, the dark dragon knights were engaging the NPC troops already. The giant dragons burned the human soldiers with their breaths, while the dark dragon knights diced them with their sword auras. Even in their undead state, the power gap between the two forces was rather huge.

Stark, the commander of Black Cavalry Legion, made a mad gallop toward dark dragon knights before reining his warhorse suddenly and pulling out a spear. He shouted, "Throw at the dragons’ eyes! Kill!"

Swhoosh!

The spear zipped across the air with incredible speed and entered a brass dragon’s eye socket. Not only that, it struck the dragon’s soul spark squarely. The dragon let out a horrifying scream, and its soul spark scattered into tiny embers. After it lost control of its body and collapsed to the ground, the knights of Sky City immediately swarmed it and chopped its head off. The dragon knight riding on top of it did his best to slay the enemies, but he was heavily outnumbered, and soon after defeated, returning to a pile of bones.

The NPCs followed Stark’s example, and the results were excellent. The dark dragon knights wounded or killed countless, but there were just too many of us and too few of them.

Boom boom boom…

One by one, the giant dragons and dark dragon knights were killed. Stark, Ziyan and more human commanders fought with great bravery and power, the five dragon knights were wreaking havoc across the battlefield, and archers were unleashing a ceaseless rain of arrows. It quickly became apparent that the upper hand was firmly on Sky City’s side.

On the other side, Violet Empire’s NPCs were fighting against the dark dragon knights as well. Blood-red cloak flapping behind her back, Queen Sophia leaped into the air from horseback, propelled herself toward a wind dragon through some sort of movement art, and sliced off its head in one strike. She then aimed her palm at the dragon knight and tore him to pieces with an energy blast.

The undead queen was easily the strongest fighter of her forces. There was barely any enemy who was able to withstand a hit from her. These resurrected dark dragon knights were no match for her at all.

……

"Dammit!"

Hollow Thunder Michael swore before leaping into the air. Lightning coursing through both of his arms, he shot toward Sophia like a lightning arrow and punched her blade like a meteor. The undead girl was sent flying across the sky, but she regained herself after a couple or rolls and retaliated with a sword aura!

Crack!

Blood exploded from Michael’s chest, but he exploded toward Sophia again as if he couldn’t feel the attack. He moved so fast that Sophia was unable to defend herself in time when he punched her right in the stomach and electrocuted her. While the undead queen was groaning in pain and spitting blood, Michael struck her again on her back, broke some bones and sent her plummeting toward the ground.

Boom!

Sophia hit the ground like a rock, unable to climb back to her feet for a time. Shadow Dancer Xue Wei hurriedly unsheathed her dagger and fired a long-range dagger aura at Michael, yelling, "Break!"

Michael backflipped out of harm’s way before shooting Xue Wei a sinister smile. "Hmph. You’re not a bad fighter, girl, but do you really think you can defeat me with this level of strength? Back in my prime, I was a man whose name alone could send sword saints scurrying away in fear. Who do you think you are?"

Xue Wei couldn’t care less about his taunt, however. She hurriedly supported Sophia and asked concernedly, "How do you feel, Your Majesty?"

Sophia’s abdomen was scorched with lightning, and her chest was heaving up and down rapidly. Still, she said with a painful frown on her face, "I’m fine, Xue Wei. Just focus on Michael. Order our succubi archers to shoot him. You won’t be able to beat him alone."

"Understood!"

……

Xue Wei whistled once, and a group of 10000 succubi archers poured into the clearing. The red-eyed archers possessed great agility and perception. They drew their bows and loosed their arrows at Michael immediately after they were in position.

Michael sneered and conjured a lightning shield with his left hand to block the arrow rain. Then, he swooped down on the archers and fired a gigantic lightning palm at them. The skill was so powerful that an entire group of succubi archers was annihilated just like that. They didn’t even leave a corpse behind. The former Top 10 boss of Spirit of Grief was ridiculously powerful even today.

Not done yet, he fired a couple of lightning astral winds that absolutely destroyed the ground and the soldiers standing on it. The forces of the Violet Empire were incapable of harming the powerful boss at all.

Back at Sky City’s side, Karinshan declared, "Hollow Thunder Michael is too strong. The Violet Empire will become a footnote in history if we don’t help them!"

She abruptly leaped into the sky and unsheathed her weapon. Countless complicated runes surrounded her blade as she cried, "Eat this!"

It was a combination skill of magic and martial arts. In a sense, Karinshan’s cultivation surpassed Sophia’s, so the threat she posed to Michael was definitely greater.

Michael turned around just in time to feel the energy piercing holes into his body. After looking down at the wounds for a moment, he actually stretched his neck unnaturally and licked the blood covering his chest. Then, he shot Karinshan a lustful look before cackling, "I’ve heard that the current commander of the Silver Moon Alliance is a cute human girl, and it looks like the rumors were true after all. You are Karinshan, aren’t you? I command you to put down your pride and dignity and become my plaything!"

Karinshan bit her lip so hard that it bled. She abruptly summoned a great amount of swords before crying, "Sword Control Art!"

The swords rained down on Michael, pierced his armor and inflicted countless wounds on his body. However, he withstood all of the attacks as if he was some sort of unkillable monster. After the skill ended, and Karinshan took a moment to recover herself, Michael immediately rushed forward and fired eight lightning bolts at her at the same time!

Bang bang bang…

Karinshan’s protective aura shattered in the blink of an eye. Blood spilled out of her lips as he fell toward the ground.

Ziyan galloped toward her queen and caught her right before she was about to hit the ground. She asked urgently, "Are you okay, Your Majesty?"

Stark raised his arm and ordered, "Kill!"

Unfortunately, the cavalry troops didn’t make it far before Michael opened his palm and chanted, "Heed my call, ancient curse of the devils! Raiden!"

The earth trembled, and lightning descended from the sky like the rain. Nearly a thousand cavalrymen were zapped into ashes in just the blink of an eye!

……

After the incredible display of power, Michael’s cackle grew even more arrogant. "Is this it? How disappointing. The human empires today are so much weaker than in the past. Where are you, Karinshan? Come out and become my plaything! You don’t have a choice!"

When Michael’s arrogance reached its peak, a clear voice suddenly appeared behind him, "I am your opponent, you bastard. Turn around and face me!"

"What?"

Michael turned around just in time to face Xinran, but not fast enough to stop her Dragonbone Spear from piercing his chest and protruding out of his back. For the first time since the start of the battle, an attack had pierced through Michael’s body completely!

"You!"

Michael’s pupils shrank in shock as he grasped the spear shaft. "Who are you? How do you possess such penetrative power?"

Xinran replied indifferently, "Does it matter who I am? You’re going to die in my hands anyway!"

"Is that so?"

Michael suddenly grinned maliciously. "You are even prettier than Karinshan is, girl. I’ve decided. Both you and Karinshan will be my playthings. I promise to take good care of you both. Hehe! You may be strong, but you still aren’t strong enough to kill me, understand?"

Xinran smiled. "You’re the one who doesn’t understand anything."

"What?!"

Xinran spun her spear at the same time spikes suddenly appeared from the center of the Dragonbone Spear. The attack instantly ground Michael’s innards into a gooey mess. Then, she pointed her palm at Michael and cried, "Ashes to ashes, dust to dust!"

Boom!

An unstoppable blast of energy destroyed Michael’s arms and legs completely. The boss looked like a flesh gourd as he fell toward the ground.

No one could believe that the powerful Michael was incapable of withstanding even a single move from Xinran.

……

"Ahhhhh…"

As Michael fell from the sky, he screamed, "Save me, Lord Mingyu, save me! I’m going to die…"

Mingyue sneered. "You can’t even beat a girl, you trash? Why did I keep you around again?"

Michael begged profusely, "I… I was just careless, my lord. I promise to serve you unerringly…"

Mingyue rose to his feet and glanced around himself for a moment. Then, he fired a red blast through a dark dragon knight’s body before shouting, "Life Contract!"

Bang!

Both the dragon knight and his dragon exploded into smithereens. Then, their enormous life force started pouring into Michael’s body. A miracle happened. Michael started growing limbs at an incredible rate. He almost looked healthy by the time his limbs were done growing.

On the ground, Xue Wei shouted, "Lady Wind Singer, Michael will never die until Mingyu is dead! Quickly!"

……

Xinran immediately charged toward Mingyu and tossed her spear!

Crack!

The Dragonbone Spear penetrated Mingyu’s body and nailed him to a giant rock. Then, to my surprise, Xinran pulled out a shiny sword from behind her back. When did my cute little sister learn to use a sword?

"Die!"

The sword cut deep into Mingyu’s shoulder flesh and bone, causing the boss to let out a painful groan and lose a ton of HP!

……

"Now is the time!"

I exploded toward the boss with a shout. Behind me, Lin Yixin followed closely with her Dragonfrost already brandished.

I activated Heavenly River Transformation and raised the Chill of the Nine Provinces above my head. SSS Rank Ancient Divine Skill Xuanyuan Slash, go!!

Boom!

The skill struck the same spot where Xinran had cut through perfectly. Only a few strands of flesh were still connecting the limb now!

Lin Yixin dashed past Mingyu and swung her Dragonfrost. The blow finally severed Mingyu’s arm!

I rolled past the severed arm and grabbed the falling Dragonslaying Sword. As a cool sensation seeped into my palm, I activated Ghost Spirit Step Art and booked it with everything I got!

Finally, I managed to obtain the Dragonslaying Sword!!!
