Invincible Over the World
Chapter 490 - 490 490 Encountering an Acquaintance

490: Chapter 490: Encountering an Acquaintance 490: Chapter 490: Encountering an Acquaintance It was nearing noon, and the sunlight was harsh.

The ground was parched, seemingly drained of moisture by the sunlight.

On the main road in front of the Nine Dragon City Gate, there appeared more than a dozen unicorns as mounts, with what looked like a cluster of purple flames under their feet.

Unicorns, favored by many royal families in the Martial Soul World, are one of the preferred mounts due to their speed and endurance for long journeys.

However, unicorns also have different levels.

A unicorn that reaches Innate strength will generate yellow flames beneath its feet, whereas only those who have reached Innate Tenth Rank or above, nearing the Holy Domain, will produce purple fire.

And beneath a Holy Domain unicorn’s feet, there is black fire.

These dozen or so unicorns had clearly reached Innate Tenth Rank, and seated on them were all humans.

Among them was Lei Hua, whom Huang Xiaolong had encountered in Zhu City, the son of the Thunder People King.

Lei Hua was following behind a tall, burly middle-aged man with thick eyebrows and big eyes, who had a fierce-looking appearance; this man’s aura was incredibly powerful, and he was none other than the king of the Human Clan in the Shifang Continent, the Thunder People King!

As the Thunder People King and the Ice Man King were both kings of the Human Clan, they naturally received invitations.

However, the Thunder People King and the Ice Man King were often at odds, so each of them led their respective followers here separately.

Standing behind the Thunder People King were his formidable subordinates; although there were over a dozen of them, only seven were of the Holy Domain.

The others were all at the Half-Saint Peak.

The Human Clan’s power in the Shifang Continent was weak; these seven Holy Domain experts were all the Holy Domain experts under the Thunder People King.

Lei Hua and the group of Human Clan experts were somewhat astonished as they looked at the vast city rising before them.

Nine Dragon City was many times larger than their Thunder City, and with its surging Demon Energy, a daunting pressure filled their hearts with deep fear.

“Let’s go, let’s enter the city,” whispered the Thunder People King.

Taking the lead on his unicorn, he entered Nine Dragon City, and Lei Hua and the others, snapping out of their daze, hurriedly followed.

Once inside Nine Dragon City, as they looked at the extremely bustling streets, everyone felt a mix of emotions.

“Young Master, this great ceremony combines both the Beast Clan and the Demon Clan; maybe that youngster knows about it and will come!” one Holy Domain expert of the Human Clan said to Lei Hua.

The “youngster” he referred to was indeed Huang Xiaolong.

At the mention of Huang Xiaolong, killing intent surged wildly in Lei Hua’s eyes: “If that’s the case, it’s for the best.

If I really bump into that youngster, I will definitely crush him to bits!”

The last time in Zhu City, Zhou Yuchu of the Divine Ape Hall was crippled by Huang Xiaolong, both arms and Qi Sea ruined, and Lei Hua nearly had his lower regions crushed in Zhou’s rampage.

Although it wasn’t completely crushed, his sinews below were injured, and these days, he dared not indulge himself with women.

Later, when Zhou Yuchu was killed, Divine Ape Palace Master Zhou Yunpeng was enraged.

If it hadn’t been for his father’s personal appeasement towards Zhou Yunpeng, offering the heads of tens of thousands of Zhu Family disciples, he might have already been killed by Zhou Yunpeng to accompany Zhou Yuchu in death.

All of this was because of that youngster!

As the group led by the Thunder People King passed by a large restaurant named Sun and Moon, they stopped.

“Let’s go in and eat something, and rest for a bit,” said the Thunder People King.

Lei Hua and his guards respectfully agreed.

At that moment, Huang Xiaolong, who had been in seclusion within the Nine Dragon Palace, emerged from the Sumeru Divine Palace.

In the Windless Cave on Holy Image Mountain, Huang Xiaolong had acquired a Divine-grade top-level Elixir called Divine Ape Power Pill, refined by the Ancient Divine Ape Emperor.

These days, Huang Xiaolong had been continuously consuming the Divine Ape Power Pills for cultivation.

The Divine Ape Power Pills were refined by the Ancient Divine Ape Emperor using countless Demon Clan Spiritual Medicines from the ancient times, even including Demon Essence Power from Demon Cores of Demon Clan experts of the Divine Domain from the ancient times.

Demon Essence Power from a Divine Domain Demon Clan expert!

This was a treasure that Holy Domain experts of the Demon Clan dreamt of possessing.

Even a trace of it held unimaginable benefits for the Demon Clan’s Holy Domain Experts in their cultivation.

Originally, humans could not consume or refine the Demon Essence Power within the Divine Ape Great Strength Pill, but Huang Xiaolong’s current Primordial Dragon Body was essentially a Dragon Clan body; thus, refining this Divine Ape Great Strength Pill posed no problems.

Every day, by consuming the Divine Ape Great Strength Pill for cultivation, Huang Xiaolong’s strength had significantly increased compared to a month ago, approaching the Late Stage Peak of the Holy Domain Ninth Stage.

The Demon Essence Power contained in the Divine Ape Great Strength Pill possessed the Time Law of Holy Domain Experts, which would be of great help for Huang Xiaolong’s future breakthroughs to the Divine Domain.

After coming out of seclusion, Huang Xiaolong summoned everyone including Ao Kun, Lei Ge, Tiger Clan Patriarch Chuck, and the Snake Clan Leader Danie.

The unification ceremony of the Beast and Demon Clans was imminent; Chuck and others had received Huang Xiaolong’s orders and had thus brought all their high-level experts to Nine Dragon City early on.

After summoning Ao Kun, Lei Ge, Chuck, and others, Huang Xiaolong inquired about the current situation in Nine Dragon City.

Tomorrow was the unification ceremony, and Huang Xiaolong wanted to ensure nothing went wrong.

Ao Kun, Lei Ge, Chuck, and the others reported the situation in Nine Dragon City to Huang Xiaolong one by one.

“What’s the movement on the Divine Hall’s side?” Huang Xiaolong’s interest piqued as he asked.

“Subordinate has found out that the Divine Hall contacted Qiankun Divine Sect, Pure Void Sect, White Phoenix Tower, and Sin City,” Ao Kun respectfully answered.

“However, the specific plans of the Divine Hall are unknown.”

Huang Xiaolong nodded, his expression calm, “Experts from the Divine Hall, Qiankun Divine Sect, Pure Void Sect, White Phoenix Tower, and Sin City have likely infiltrated Nine Dragon City.

Inform all the halls and clan disciples to be vigilant; if anyone starts a fight or causes trouble in Nine Dragon City, whoever they are, encircle and kill them on the spot!”

Huang Xiaolong had anticipated the Divine Hall allying with forces such as Qiankun Divine Sect, so this came as no surprise.

“Yes, Beast God Lord!” Ao Kun and the others respectfully complied.

“Has any clan leader received an invitation and failed to arrive?” Huang Xiaolong asked.

“All the clan leaders have arrived,” Lei Ge answered.

Huang Xiaolong was somewhat surprised that they had all come.

“Watch these clan leaders as well.

If you find anyone in contact with the Divine Hall, Qiankun Divine Sect, Qinghu Sect, White Phoenix Tower, and Sin City, do not report back to me, capture them immediately!” Huang Xiaolong ordered.

Ao Kun and the others respectfully complied.

After that, Huang Xiaolong gave further instructions on many matters, then dismissed Ao Kun and the others.

After Ao Kun and the others left, Huang Xiaolong thought for a moment, then stood and decided to go out for a walk and have a few drinks, while also checking on the current situation in Nine Dragon City.

Before leaving, Huang Xiaolong called the Soul-devouring Purple Monkey along.

Hearing Huang Xiaolong mention going out for drinks, the Soul-devouring Purple Monkey was naturally thrilled.

“Big Brother, I heard that the Sun and Moon Wine at Nine Dragon City’s Sun and Moon Restaurant is a sacred liquor of the Demon Clan, and its fragrance can be smelled from ten miles away.” The Soul-devouring Purple Monkey mouthed, smacking his lips.

Huang Xiaolong laughed, “Really?

Then let’s go.

It’s been twenty years since we brothers last met; we should drink to our heart’s content!”

The two of them left the Nine Dragon Palace and headed for the Sun and Moon Restaurant.

A moment later, they arrived at the Sun and Moon Restaurant.

After they entered, the first floor was packed, a dense crowd indicating the restaurant’s bustling business.

“Let’s head to the second floor,” Huang Xiaolong said and went upstairs with the Soul-devouring Purple Monkey.

The second floor was less crowded and quieter.

Huang Xiaolong swept the room with his gaze and paused, surprised to encounter someone he knew.

At a seat near the window on the second floor sat Elf Clan Queen Kelly and the Great Elder Celeste among others.

In another corner, there sat Lei Hua, whom he had met in Zhu City.
