Chapter 2563 - 2561: The Disaster at the Dragon Palace (Part 2)
The Dragon Kings of the Four Seas saw the young man coming aggressively, and immediately admitted defeat, retreating again and again.
The East Sea Dragon King stepped forward, clasped his hands in salute to the young man, and said, "Friend, what exactly did our East Sea Dragon Palace do to offend you? Let’s talk things out properly, why resort to weapons?"
The young man took a bite of a fruit and sneered at the East Sea Dragon King, "I’m just here to help, the real victim will arrive soon."
"Is it the Sea Dragon King?"
The East Sea Dragon King shouted urgently.
The sound of slaughter outside suddenly escalated.
Someone let out a long howl, "East Sea Dragon King, come out and meet your death now!"
The Dragon Kings of the Four Seas all wielded their magical treasures, turning around.
A massive sword qi slashed towards them, with a loud bang, sending all four of them flying backward.
This sword qi carried the aura of a saint, stirring a wild wind throughout the hall.
The Four Seas Dragon Kings all crashed to the ground, smashing tables, rockeries, benches, and chairs into disarray.
The newcomer was tall and strong, clad in black armor, pointed his sword at the East Sea Dragon King and roared, "Ao Guang, do you have any conscience left? My son fought desperately for you and the East Sea, yet in the end, his body lies cold, and you betray him, even marrying my daughter-in-law to his enemy?"
He was none other than Cang Tianba’s father, Cang Leiyuan.
Holding the Sacred Sword, he emanated a murderous aura.
The East Sea Dragon King and other dragon kings got up from the ground, staring at the two with stammering voices, "The matter has already happened, why must we continue to entangle ourselves? You cause such chaos in the Dragon Palace, the Jade Emperor will surely see this as a capital offense!"
Cang Leiyuan let out a cold, long screech, "I can come here today, am I still afraid of death? My Sea Dragon Clan has suffered losses for you in the East Sea, today we will perish together with you!"
He raised his sword and charged directly at the East Sea Dragon King.
"Someone, protect the king!"
The Dragon Kings of the Four Seas shouted loudly, and immediately shrimp soldiers and crab generals rushed in, surrounding Cang Leiyuan in the middle.
The Dragon King glanced at the young man in the arena and turned to run.
In the art of fighting he was lacking, but in the art of escaping, the Dragon Kings of the Four Seas were quite experienced.
The East Sea Dragon King ran to the back palace, urgently shouting to his children and wife inside, "Quick, quick, the Sea Dragon Clan has come to seek revenge, we must run!"
"What?"
"On such a happy day, how dare they come to cause trouble?"
The sons and daughters, and wives in the hall still didn’t know what was going on, each startled and jumping up in surprise.
The East Sea Dragon King anxiously grabbed his wife and shouted, "At this time, saying such things is useless. Let’s go quickly, go to Liangshan Island to find help!"
He took his wife and a group of sons and daughters to leave, but Cang Leiyuan already came with sword raised to kill.
The East Sea Dragon King was terrified and shouted urgently to the oncoming shrimp soldiers and crab generals, "Quick, stop them!"
The Sea Dragon King, standing eight feet tall, was already red-eyed with killing intent.
He held the Sacred Sword, sweeping it across.
His body surged through the encirclement of the shrimp soldiers and crab generals, finding the Ninth Princess wearing red bridal robes in the crowd, and stabbed towards her with his sword.
The power of the Sacred Sword was enormous.
The Ninth Princess felt a coldness all over, turned back to take a look.
With a pfft, the Golden Feather Sword was fiercely thrust into her heart.
There was a sound, and blood spurted out, dyeing her red bridal robe even redder.
The Dragon Mother turned back with a startled cry, "Jiu’er!"
The Dragon King cried out, "It’s too late, hurry and run!"
He dragged the Dragon Mother and a group of concubines and children, escaping desperately.
Cang Leiyuan’s eyes were blood-red, he twisted the longsword in his hand, stepping forward to pin the Ninth Princess to the ground.
Grinding his teeth with hatred, he stepped on the Ninth Princess’s body, cursing, "My son treated you well, willing to sacrifice his life for you, why did you betray him like this?"
The Ninth Princess’s hands gripped the longsword, with blood flowing down the blade.
Her pupils widened, blood foaming at the corners of her mouth, she softly uttered, "Fa...father-in-law, please stop!"
"What have I done?"
Cang Leiyuan’s Divine Sea trembled fiercely, releasing his grip on the longsword.
At this moment, someone patted him on the shoulder from behind, coldly chuckling, "It’s natural to avenge your son, why the compassion?"
The young man stepped forward, pulling the sword from the Ninth Princess’s heart.
As the Ninth Princess transformed into her giant golden dragon form, the longsword moved downward, extracting her Dragon Gall, which he swallowed in one gulp and laughed, "I’ve been in the Buddhist Sect, chanting and fasting for so long without tasting Dragon Gall. This bride’s Dragon Gall is quite good, still carrying the aroma of a woman!"
The Ninth Princess had only cultivated the physical body, all her Primordial Spirit Fragments were within the Dragon Ball.
Her Dragon Ball emerged, about to escape, but was also grabbed and swallowed by the young man.
"You...you’re too ruthless!"
Cang Leiyuan trembled all over, collapsing to the ground in exhaustion.
The young man shook his head and sighed, "I knew you had no backbone! With your attitude, who knows when you’ll avenge your son’s grievances!"
He stabbed the sword into the ground beside Cang Leiyuan, turning away with his hands behind his back, indifferently instructing, "I’m going to Liangshan Island to kill, find me when you’ve made up your mind!"
On the water route from the East Sea Dragon Palace to Liangshan Island, the East Sea Dragon King and the Three Seas Dragon King converged, fleeing for their lives with their families.
Halfway there, they ran into the group escorting the bride.
The leader at the front, the Little Kirin, frowned at them, "This old Dragon King sure is hospitable, waiting halfway for us?"
Who would know, before the East Sea Dragon King arrived, the sound of lamentation came over, "Quick, quick, save my daughter, hurry and save her!"
"What’s going on?"
The Little Kirin and his group hurried over.
Ao Jie also rushed over, anxiously asking, "Father-in-law, what happened?"
The Dragon Mother clutched his hand, tearfully lamenting, "The Sea Dragon King has come to kill, my daughter was killed by him!"
"What?"
Ao Jie widened his eyes, nearly fainting.
The Little Kirin steadied him, urgently shouting, "Quick, go save people!"
They took Ao Jie, moving like lightning through the water towards the East Sea Dragon Palace.
The bridal escort was at a loss, and under the arrangements of the East Sea Dragon King and others, simply turned around and headed back to Liangshan Island.
Outside the Dragon Palace, it was filled with the sounds of slaughter.
A hundred thousand East Sea soldiers had already annihilated the group brought by the Sea Dragon King.
Inside the Dragon Palace, it was a scene of carnage.
Ao Jie ran madly inside, finally finding the now lifeless Ninth Princess amidst the bodies.
Her form was still dressed in her bridal robes, lying in a pool of blood.
Ao Jie’s legs gave out, collapsing beside the Ninth Princess.
He looked at the soon-to-be-bride in disbelief, holding her in his arms with the same helplessness he felt when his mother died.
The Little Kirin and his group came over, immediately examining the Ninth Princess.
Her Dragon Ball had been taken, the Dragon Gall gone, both body and soul perished, with no sign of life left.
The five stood beside Ao Jie, each with reddened eyes, advising him, "The Ninth Princess is gone, restrain your grief!"
Little Qing shouted angrily, "Those scoundrels have gone too far, let’s go find them and settle accounts immediately!"
Little Bai said, "I just inquired, and they have already gone to Liangshan Island. Let’s go back and demand justice for the Ninth Princess’s life!"
Ao Jie held back for a long time, suddenly bursting into tears, slapping his face fiercely in self-blame, "I’m such a jinx, I caused your death!"
