YM778.TV Chapter 107 Making His Move
ZHANG WEI TURNED around the moment Shen Zui called him over. It was the same with Zhao Qiaochen who had blood-red eyes.
“What did you say?” the latter asked. “Zhao Fenhua is still alive?”
“I saw it! He really didn’t die. Look! His body should still be there if the Spirit Race Ancestor had only burst his head into a blood mist, but his body is nowhere to be found.”
Zhao Qiaochen calmed his ass down. Zhao Dilao also sighed, his heart tapped with the relief he had felt. “It seems like you’re right.”
Zhang Wei gratefully looked at Shen Zui who discovered this and told them. Otherwise, things would have turned out for the worse. “Calm down, Zhao Qiaochen. Moreover, the one you slashed down with your sword qi, she wasn’t there anymore. I also can’t feel her presence. Something feels strange.”
When Zhang Wei turned around, the Spirit Race Queen also disappeared from their sight. All the other members of the race who was still alive had gone missing as well. Zhang Wei felt his heart constrict in a second.
“Something really serious happened,” Zhang Wei said. “Let’s retreat for now. Quick! I have a feeling that something was wrong! Even with the Death Hydra by our side, I felt like we wouldn’t be able to win against whoever made all of them disappear from our sight.”
With that, Zhang Wei rode on the Death Hydra and urged the others to do the same. Only Zhao Fenhua remained missing, but Zhao Qiaochen conditioned himself that his son was still alive. He must be alive no matter what. After all, that was his son and Zhao Fenhua was the one he doted on the most.
‘What a mess,’ he thought as he realized that things weren’t going as they expected them to go. ‘Zhang Wei should have felt the same thing. Although we had the upper hand then, I also felt uneasy now that I have calmed down a bit.’
“Where do you all think you’re going?” a voice rang into their heads as the Death Hydra already had the stance of running away from the territory..

“If you already helped us save some of my people, then wouldn’t that mean I am indebted to you? Why would you help us again for nothing?” the Spirit Race Ancestor queried, expressing her doubts about the matter on the young man who dragged her into this world stuffed with blood.
“Is it believable enough to say that I extremely hate the Echinemon Race? Moreover, it doesn’t hurt much to save you. In fact, it would be beneficial to me. If you feel indebted to me, in the future, you might be able to help me or my disciples. How about it?”
“Disciples?” the Spirit Race Ancestor muttered, her heart still filled with second thoughts.
“Yes, disciples. Currently, I have two disciples and one pending who was still recuperating her injuries. On the other hand, my second disciple, a little dragon from the Dragon Race had been captured by the Echinemon Race while I was inside the Valley of Gods. My first disciple, on the other hand, had already ascended in that place as well. Do you believe me now?” the young man said, his sharp eyes making the other’s pale in comparison. “Anyhow, you don’t have a choice. Even if there are a hundred of yourself facing me, you won’t be able to defeat me. After all, I am the one who created this world for my first disciple.”
The young man then waved his hand and soon enough, the other members of the Spirit Race, including the Spirit Race Queen, appeared and floated in the air with their faces dumbfounded.
“Mother, what happened?” the Spirit Race Queen immediately asked and went near the Spirit Race Ancestor. “What is this place… and who…” She then noticed the other party who had the bearing of an old man but the face of a young man. “Who is he…” Somewhat, she was feeling fearful the moment her eyes stared into the young man’s.
The Spirit Race Ancestor then heaved a sigh after his methods and replied to the young man, “Alright, I believe you for now. Thank you for saving our race.” She then bowed to him.
This shocked the other members of the race, particularly the noblemen. “Ancestor, what are you doing? Why are you bowing down to a stranger?!”
“Quiet,” the young man said and the nobleman who complained was turned into meat paste as his gaze trailed its way to the other members as well. “Who else wants to die among you?”
THUMP. THUMP.
Everyone’s hearts beat wildly, like a beast trying to break through their cages.
The Spirit Race Ancestor and her daughter were shocked because of this sudden turn of events. That was too quick. What the young man did was even more powerful than their Art of Speech.
Just one word and it killed the nobleman. Who would believe them if they told this to other people? A peak God Emperor died just like that?
“Now, back to business. You don’t have to bow to me. After all, it is unbefitting of your status to do so. However, whoever wants to oppose me and be ungrateful of the help I have extended to your race, I would kill them in a matter of milliseconds.”
GULP.
“Stay here for a while. I will first go outside and take care of those people who invaded your territory,” the young man said.
When the young man was about to disappear, the Spirit Race Ancestor then asked a question, “Wait!”
The young man turned his head back and said, “What?”
“Can we know your name, senior?” she carefully worded.
The young man smiled. “I’m Cao Nima, the Echinemon Slayer.”

“Where do you all think you’re going?”
No one.
No one dared to move forward.
Zhang Wei, Zhao Qiaochen, Zhao Dilao, and Shen Zui stood frozen the moment they heard that voice. They recognized him. Especially Zhao Dilao, who had a close encounter with this man inside the Valley of Gods.
‘I thought he was a guardian in the Valley of Gods? How was he able to come out?’
He was really afraid. Terrified.
“Did you all think you can get out of here alive?”
“HURRY!” Zhang Wei reacted as he mobilized all of his qi to control the Death Hydra to make it run as fast as it could.
However, before the creature was able to move, Yang Lujia’s voice rang in the air once more. “Come.”
With that word alone, every one of them, including the creature itself, went near to Yang Lujia, standing frozen on the ground, unable to make any sound. Yang Lujia then waved his hand and Long Guang appeared by his arms, carrying the little dragon like his own son.
“You’ve suffered enough. I’m sorry if master wasn’t able to rescue you for a long time,” he said, dotingly to Long Guang.
Yang Lujia then disappeared and reappeared in front of Feng Huang, Brownie, and Metallie. The moment the three saw that Long Guang was back, they were immediately elated and helped the unconscious Long Guang with his injuries.
“Help him out with his injuries,” Yang Lujia ordered then looked at Feng Huang and her unconscious sister. “Since I helped you out with saving your sister, it’s almost time for you to accept me as your master.”
Feng Huang’s eyes shone fervently as she stared at Yang Lujia. “YES!”
“Good. Wait till I get back. I still have matters to complete outside,” Yang Lujia as his body went back to the original place he had disappeared.
“Se…”
“Quiet,” Yang Lujia interrupted as he heard the voice of Zhang Wei trying to plead his way out of this situation while gnashing his teeth. “Oh?” Yang Lujia reacted after noticing that something was watching them from afar.
He then looked at Zhang Wei’s eyes and said, “You’re Zhang Wei, right? Someone seems to be using your eyes to spectate the battle. Are you sure you’re not controlled?”
Zhang Wei’s eyes widened as he straightened his back. “What…”
Yang Lujia then stared at him. Soon enough, he extended his hand and clenched his fist. Like crushed tendons, Zhang Wei’s eye sockets became hollow.
SHRIEK!
When the others saw this and heard Zhang Wei’s pitiful scream, especially Zhao Qiaochen who had been underestimating Cao Nima all this time, they almost pissed their pants.
Yang Lujia scanned all of them from head to toe. “Did I tell everyone to stand firm like that?” He then flew up, his gaze drilling into each of these people’s skin, and said with a voice that carried splendor, “Kneel.”
Then, he stared at the Death Hydra behind these people. “It’s quite a nice pet to have. However, it’s a pity that you’re already a pet of somebody else.”
Then, he tapped the forehead of one of the biggest heads of the creature.
