Chapter 1625: Messenger of Xingluo Continent (Please Subscribe)_1
When the purple light beam struck the Rock Dragon's head, a faint "bang" was heard...
At first glance, it seemed to have caused no damage, not even leaving a scratch!
Yue Zhengyu couldn't help but take a sharp intake of breath, "Hiss... Is this guy's head really that tough? That's a level 6 Soul cannonball, and it didn't even inflict a scratch."
Yuanen Yehui said gravely, "No... Look closely, the granite covering its head is very dense, probably the sturdiest part of its body!"
Hearing this, Yue Zhengyu observed carefully and indeed found it to be true!
The granite on this Rock Dragon's head displayed shades of color that were different from the rest of its body!
Yuanen Yehui spoke again, "Yue Zhengyu, aim for the soul beast's—"
As the saying goes, strike the snake at its seven inches; the same logic should apply to the dragon!
Without hesitation, Yue Zhengyu nodded, "Alright!"
He then released a series of light beams toward the Rock Dragon, each blowing evenly on every part of its body…
"Buzz~~"
Seemingly detecting the pain, the Rock Dragon's crimson eyes opened instantly, and its coiled body quickly sprawled open…
Yue Zhengyu smacked his lips, "No reaction when hit on the head, but instantly awakened when the body is struck, what a monster."
Yuanen Yehui took a deep breath, "Since this soul beast is already alert, let's get started!"
Although she wasn't sure, she had somewhat discerned where the Rock Dragon's weakness lay!
With that, she moved out from behind cover…
Almost the instant they exposed their presence, they were locked in the gaze of the Rock Dragon...
The Rock Dragon, hundreds of meters long, glared down at Yue Zhengyu and her from below, its crimson eyes brimming with intense murderous intent…
Without delay, it swung its slender tail, sweeping forwards...
Yuanen Yehui shouted, "Take action!"
The moment her words fell, both of them released their Martial Souls, and the phantom silhouettes of the Holy Angel and the Fallen Angel emerged from behind them...
Immediately after, they leaped from the ground, dodging the attack...
Landing steadily, Yue Zhengyu cried out, "Second Soul Skill, Sacred Sword!"
In his Holy Angel's hands materialized a holy sword emanating a golden glow, gripping it tightly, he charged straight toward the Rock Dragon...
When the strike hit, a crisp sound echoed...
However, the Rock Dragon merely shook its body, and the immense force compelled Yue Zhengyu to be blasted a dozen meters backward...
Seizing the opportunity, the First Soul Ring under Yuanen Yehui's feet lit up, "First Soul Skill, Fallen Heaven Curtain!"
A dark swirl erupted from her body, slowly spreading towards everything around her...
The Rock Dragon, however, showed no sign of fear and charged straight towards her...
In an instant, the entire Fallen Heaven Curtain was forcibly burst open, shattering like broken glass in a matter of seconds...
This unexpected turn of events made Yuanen Yehui's face turn even grimmer, "Damn it... It actually shattered the Fallen Heaven Curtain!"
Is this the power of a hundred-thousand-year soul beast?
Yue Zhengyu reminded from the side, "Ye Hui, this Rock Dragon, it's not just strong in defense, but its combat awareness is also sharp! We must not be careless!"
From the fact that he was sent flying a dozen meters when he attacked the Rock Dragon, it was clear that the beast was not so simple!
With a cold voice, Yuanen Yehui said, "I don't need you to tell me that, we'll attack separately!"
Despite the surprises, it was undeniable that the Rock Dragon moved very slowly; they still stood a chance!!
…
Not far from Shrek Academy!
Stood dozens of men clad in exquisite attire, all of whom were envoys sent by the Xingluo Empire for negotiations…
Yet at this moment, each one's face bore traces of bewilderment…
One of the envoys gritted his teeth and said, "Do we really have to ask Shrek Academy for help? But, by doing so, we would be admitting that the Xingluo Empire is incapable of contending with the Holy Spirit Cult! It will be difficult to raise our heads in front of the rest of the Douluo Continent from now on!"
Another envoy sighed, "Even if we become a laughingstock, it's still better than letting the Holy Spirit Cult rule over the Xingluo Empire!"
"Hmph, if it weren't for the fact that our high-end combat forces in the Xingluo Empire are extremely scarce, how could we let the Holy Spirit Cult be so arrogant!"
"If we don't seek help from the various powers of the Douluo Continent, we simply don't have the capability to resist the evil Soul Masters!"
"We're already here; it's useless to say anything more. Let's just swallow our pride and go in," said another.
Subsequently, they walked up to the entrance of Shrek Academy…
Undoubtedly, they were stopped by a student on guard duty…
"Who are you? What business do you have at Shrek Academy?"
The leading envoy stroked his beard and spoke softly, "We are envoys from the Xingluo Empire, here to negotiate with Shrek Academy. I would trouble this young friend to go inside and pass on the message!"
Now that they were asking for help, their attitude naturally couldn't be the same as before!
The student pondered for a moment and said, "Envoys from the Xingluo Empire? I will go and deliver the message right away. Please wait here for a moment!"
After speaking, he turned and entered the Shrek Academy…
A few minutes later, Cai Yue'er, who had been informed, came out…
Upon seeing the envoys from the Xingluo Empire, she smiled and said, "Welcome to the envoys from the Xingluo Empire. We apologize for any lack of hospitality and hope you will forgive us!"
The leading envoy responded immediately, "Where does Elder Cai come up with such words? It is we who have presumptuously come to visit without notifying Shrek Academy in advance!"
Cai Yue'er, neither agreeing nor disagreeing, said, "I presume that you have brought so many envoys for some very important matters to discuss. Please follow me to the lounge for a detailed conversation."
The envoys did not say much more and followed her to the lounge of the outer courtyard…
The leading envoy glanced back at the others and said, "The rest of you, please wait outside!"
Although Elder Cai had not mentioned it, it would be very impolite to allow all the envoys into the lounge!
And that would not be conducive to the forthcoming negotiations!
The other envoys also understood and voluntarily left the area…
Seeing all this, Cai Yue'er maintained her composure, pushed the door open with a light smile, and said, "Please, Envoy, come in!"
Following that, the two of them entered the lounge together…
No sooner had they sat down than the envoy took a deep breath and said with resignation, "Elder Cai, I'll just speak frankly. Our empire has sent us here this time to seek help from Shrek Academy!"
"Just in this short period, multiple attacks by evil Soul Masters have occurred in the Xingluo Empire!"
Cai Yue'er pursed her lips and did not hasten to agree, instead she said calmly, "Our Shrek Academy has always prioritized the eradication of evil Soul Masters, but mostly within the bounds of the Douluo Continent!"
"Moreover, we are currently in a vulnerable period. If we were to support the Xingluo Empire, surely you understand the risks involved?"
Upon hearing this, the envoy's eyes brightened subtly, "As long as Shrek Academy is willing to help, our Xingluo Empire is ready to pay a certain price!"
As long as there wasn't a direct refusal, it meant there was still a chance to continue the conversation!
