Chapter 451 - 314: Black Dragon Army, Nine-Headed Xiangliu, and Dragon Slayer Squad Assemble!

[The Star Moon Race initially did not want to get involved.]

[Back then, the Black Cloud City Lord traveled from afar to explore the wilderness. He was still young and had not yet achieved "Fire God Ascension," yet he bravely forged ahead in a pioneering war, igniting his soul with the battlefield’s evil qi to forge——Unparalleled Demon Weapon·Black Dragon!]

[The Black Dragon directly shattered the combined forces of five Divine Domain powerhouses from the Rabbit Race and Star Moon Race, and afterwards gained a Great Spirit Realm as a habitat.]

[Since then, the Morning Star Empire has formed a concept in their minds——the Human Race’s Soldier Master, with the blessing of "War Weapon," is invincible.]

[The Morning Star Empire no longer dared to confront the Black Dragon directly, relying on the Golden Divine Arrow and Star Moon Envoys to conduct guerrilla warfare in the mist, holding the Black Dragon Army in check, easily suppressing the Human Race to the other side of the Sunset Mountain Range.]

[The two races divided the mountains, and did not interfere with each other’s affairs.]

[The three Divine Domains of the Morning Star Empire wisely decided not to easily provoke war again.]

[But soon after, the Human Race unexpectedly sent emissaries to seek peace.]

[What? You’re actually seeking peace?]

[The Morning Star Empire became excited; the Black Cloud City Lord, that Martial Artist, emulating his predecessors, was the first Human Race person in a hundred years to expand the territory with a tough attitude, adhering to the principle of "better to be shattered jade than intact tile."]

[Even if it means fighting until the last soldier, he would not hesitate. How could such a person actively seek peace?]

[It seems...the situation in Black Cloud City is worse than imagined!]

[Having such a neighbor alive is truly unsettling; if we could seize this opportunity to eliminate the Black Dragon...]

[The Morning Star Empire was tempted.]

[However, the Human Race has been recuperating and gathering strength over the years, and another Soldier Master was born amidst the battle with the Hundred Races in Black Cloud City. To slay that Black Dragon, we need to ensure absolute success.]

[We must not give the Black Dragon any chance to catch its breath.]

[In addition to the three thousand Black Dragon Army, Black Cloud City has nearly thirty thousand eagle-dog legions under its rule.]

[These are the auxiliary races of the Human Race; one is the Dog Race composed of knight guards, mounted on giant wolves, moving swiftly through the mist using their sense of smell, responsible for escorting the Human Race. The other is the Eagle Race, flying above the mist, protecting the Black Dragon Army with javelins.]

[They are the Black Dragon Army’s wings.]

[The Morning Star Empire discussed war strategies with the Rabbit Race high command, considering all possible battlefield scenarios, leaving the matter of dealing with the eagle-dogs to the Divine Arrow Army of the Morning Star Empire’s corps, as they are old rivals.]

[The plan was simple——they will first start the war, pinning down Black Cloud City’s main forces, then look for an opportunity to kill the Black Dragon.]

[The Rabbit Race will dispatch three Bodhisattvas to suppress the other Soldier Master, buying time, with only the most difficult enemy remaining——the "seriously injured" Black Cloud City Lord.]

[Everyone present was silent, none volunteered.]

[The Killing Heart Bodhisattva recalled someone and suggested forming a "Dragon Slayer Squad" with Golden and Divine Domain powerhouses!]

[Directly striking into the Black Dragon’s lair!!]

[This Dragon Slayer Squad, composed of the Rabbit Race’s Killing Heart Bodhisattva, the Eight Great Arhats, two Divine Domains from the Morning Star Empire, ten Star Moon Envoys, as well as the "Fox Race Grand Mage" and "Black Mountain Goat Race True Demon" who came from afar.]

[In addition, there was a conspicuous name on the list——White Rainbow Sword Saint!]

[With six Divine Domain powerhouses, such a lineup attacking Black Cloud City would ensure absolute success.]

[As they were discussing how to "deal with the dragon business,"]

[A young man from the Cuiyu Territory arrived from afar to pay respects to the renowned White Rainbow Sword Saint; the young man’s surname was Gu, and he was exactly the emissary of Human Race seeking peace with the Wilderness Hundred Races.]

["Seeking peace?" White Rainbow Sword Saint Luo Yi looked up at the young man with the surname Gu, "Young man, but there has been no war between us? Whence comes this talk of peace?"]

[The young man surnamed Gu hesitated for a moment, glanced toward Miss Delilah beside him.]

[Miss Delilah now, as the esteemed leader of Cuiyu Territory, Luo Yi only focuses on cultivation, while Miss Delilah is, in practical terms, the leader, with most decisions being jointly made by the two.]

[Miss Delilah excels in planning, whereas Luo Yi is decisive!]

["I am under orders from my master to seek peace with the major Spirit Realm tribes. Once this news spreads, within three months, the Rabbit Race will unite with the Star Moon Race in a massive invasion of Black Cloud City’s Spirit Realm." The young man surnamed Gu spoke frankly.]

["So?" Luo Yi, having heard a bit about this matter, was somewhat puzzled.]

["Representing the Human Race’s Martial Arts Hall and my senior brother, I make this promise to the Sword Saint. In the upcoming war, if you stand aside, once it’s over, you may choose any Great Spirit Realm as your base." The young man surnamed Gu spoke solemnly.]

[In the mist, due to the inability to maintain contact, each Spirit Realm is like an isolated island; the lord within a Spirit Realm is equivalent to an emperor, with only differences in strength, not in status. Therefore, all tribes adopt a "feudal system" for management.]

[The only distinction is that the Human Race’s lords can be appointed through war achievements!]

[Whereas other tribes rely on bloodline ties; individuals like Alice, who’s merely silver-grade, cannot defend a territory, yet she was granted a portion of the Middle Spirit Realm by the Crescent Moon City Lord.]

[Thus, Luo Yi remaining among the Star Moon Race, regardless, cannot become the lord of a Great Spirit Realm.]

[Luo Yi showed no expression, indifferent, as the young man’s eyes revealed disappointment.]

[Miss Delilah, hearing this, was moved; she needs to think for her offspring. Miss Delilah, with her skills in husbandry and teaching children, has not yet abandoned her dream of kingship.]

[Miss Delilah considered this an excellent opportunity to directly become the ruling lord of a region, establishing a millennial family with Luo Yi,]

[As the founding mother of a millennial family, Miss Delilah’s name and illustrious deeds would be eternally remembered by future generations, she had even already designed the family crest— a white tiger lazily curled on crossed black and white swords.]

[Partly because the Star Moon Race kept inserting personnel in the territory, to which Miss Delilah, as the mistress, felt quite annoyed, especially with the continuously insubordinate Julian.]

[At this time, the second wife Eve came to inform that Princess Heswei, the emissary of the Morning Star Empire, was seeking an audience.]

[Miss Delilah slightly frowned, hastily signaling to the young man surnamed Gu, "My husband has already reached the limit of a Samurai; he often struggles with the path ahead..."]

["No problem." The young man surnamed Gu did not hesitate and immediately agreed to this request, "I have right here three doors of Upper Grade True Skill Inheritance!"]

[The Human Race’s Upper Grade True Skill Inheritance, from the Martial Arts Hall’s already attained "Human Emperor" and "Hundred Saints," is mysteriously linked with the Human Race Fortune, requiring the blessing of the Great Fortune to be mastered. The young man was unconcerned about the True Skill being leaked.]

[The duty of the Martial Arts Hall is to eagerly hope someone can master the Upper Grade True Skill; eventually, all paths lead to the same destination!]

["Upper Grade True Skill Inheritance?" Luo Yi immediately formed a choice in his heart, and looked at the young man in inquiry, "Your senior brother?"]

["The Black Cloud City Lord!" The young man surnamed Gu smiled.]
