The Game with Fairies
Chapter 381

The raging storm battered against the beard and robes of the old immortal, making his appearance seem frantic and disheveled.

The first thing this playful old man said upon meeting them was a piece of alarming news.

Li Muyang and Xiao Yecao exchanged a glance, their expressions odd.

“North Sea… Slaying the dragon?”

It wasn’t that they didn’t trust the old immortal.

It was just that the matter he spoke of was too sensational.

Plus, the old immortal was always mischievous and never seemed serious.

The North Sea Dragon King was one of the rare True Dragons in the world.

Who could possibly slay him in the North?

Peach Blossom Fairy asked, “Who is the opponent? The North Sea Dragon King, though hot-tempered, is open and just, and acts for the common good. He has no personal enemies among the true immortals of the world. Who would fight him to the death?”

In the distant sky, the furious dragon’s roar became more piercing, even carrying tones of pain and indignation.

Clearly, the North Sea Dragon King was in a dire situation.

The old immortal suddenly wiped the rainwater from his beard, clapped his hands, and exclaimed, “That’s exactly the problem.”

“The North Sea Dragon King may be irascible, but he doesn’t make mortal enemies.”

“Yet the person who came to kill him today, I have never seen before! I haven’t even heard of him!”

“It’s utterly bizarre that such a person has appeared out of nowhere, pushing the North Sea Dragon King to the brink of death!”

The old immortal said to the three of them, “I was just about to come and find you, to call everyone to go and see for ourselves.”

“If the situation is indeed urgent, we may have to lend a hand to the North Sea Dragon King. We can’t just stand by and watch him be slaughtered by someone of unknown origin!”

The old immortal’s tone was urgent.

The three were even more astonished.

A nameless person who appeared out of nowhere was able to contend with the North Sea Dragon King and even push him into a crisis…

“Immortal, lead the way quickly, we must hurry to help!”

In the midst of the downpour, the lights of their escape techniques merged with that of the old immortal.

The four streaks of light sped through the storm, with the land drenched in heavy rain quickly receding from view.

Soon, they flew beyond the range of the land and into the sky above the North Sea.

The vast North Sea was filled with rolling waves.

However, at this moment, the fish and beasts in the sea were panicking, fleeing toward the shore.

In the depths of the North Sea, two true immortal beings were stirring up waves hundreds of zhang high, turning the entire ocean turbulent and violent.

The closer they got to the center of the battle, the more ferocious the storm and waves became above the North Sea.

Among the surging waves, many innocent aquatic creatures caught in the aftermath of the battle floated lifelessly.

Li Muyang even saw some ruins and broken walls floating in the water, which turned out to be the remnants of the North Sea Dragon Palace.

Was the battle so intense that even the North Sea Dragon King’s palace had been destroyed?

From afar, Li Muyang and the others finally saw the center of the battlefield.

At the horizon, a vast continent of floating ice shimmered silver-white, like a giant wall stretching across the sea.

It was the northernmost land on the planet, perennially covered in ice and snow.

In some places, the ice was thousands of zhang thick.

This was usually a barren land rarely visited by humans.

But now, the snowfield was caught in a blizzard, with thunder roaring and lightning continuously striking down from the sky.

A gigantic dragon roared and howled between heaven and earth, commanding thunder and lightning to strike down wildly amidst the snowstorm.

Lightning bolts a thousand zhang long struck the earth, shattering the thick ice cap of the polar land.

Even from a great distance, Li Muyang was shocked by the apocalyptic scene.

–Is this the power of a true immortal?

What terrifying might!

However, while Li Muyang was still absorbed in the terrifying power of the North Sea Dragon King, the old immortal in the snowstorm let out a cry of horror.

“…No good! The Dragon King is going to lose!”

Li Muyang, who was far from the battlefield, could only see the silhouette of a giant dragon soaring in the snowstorm, unable to make out the details of the battle.

But the old immortal was a true immortal, and although he claimed not to be skilled in combat, he had no difficulty seeing the battle at the end of the horizon.

Peach Blossom Fairy and Xiao Yecao, who also saw the situation in the center of the battlefield, changed their expressions.

Peach Blossom Fairy hurriedly took out a peach wood staff and urged,

“We must assist quickly!”

Peach Blossom Fairy and the old immortal simultaneously threw their immortal weapons.

Two dazzling lights pierced through the sky, scattering the howling wind and snow, creating two clear, wide paths in the space between sea and sky.

However, facing the current situation, Xiao Yecao suddenly grabbed Li Muyang.

Instead of moving forward, she tried to retreat while pulling Li Muyang with her.

The presence of immortals was not something ordinary people could approach.

Even though Xiao Yecao was only one step away from becoming an immortal, that one step was a world of difference!

She vigilantly protected Li Muyang, attempting to retreat.

However, the distant battle had already determined a victor.

The gigantic dragon that commanded the weather and wielded thunder let out a pitiful scream as it was pierced by a beam of black light that shot through heaven and earth.

The next second, the dragon’s massive body heavily crashed into the ice and snow below, sending up clouds of snow.

The North Sea Dragon King, who had once had a brief encounter and invited Xiao Yecao and Li Muyang to a banquet, met a tragic end.

Everything happened so suddenly and quickly that Li Muyang was still somewhat stunned upon witnessing the horrifying scene of the True Dragon’s demise.

“…Is he really dead?”

From the start of the battle to now, it had been at most half an hour!

The North Sea Dragon King had been slain in just half an hour?

Who was this extraordinary murderer that had emerged from nowhere?

Li Muyang was extremely shocked, standing beside Xiao Yecao and gazing far into the horizon at the battlefield.

After the dragon’s fall, the howling wind and snow in the world suddenly cleared, and visibility improved significantly.

From afar, he saw a vague figure at the edge of the snowy land bending over, standing atop the carcass of the gigantic dragon and violently plunging their hands into the True Dragon’s back.

The next second, blood splattered, and dragon scales shattered.

Like a dead fish without any resistance, the lifeless True Dragon went limp.

That extremely vague figure actually managed to pull out the True Dragon’s spine with their bare hands.

Such a shocking and outrageous scene enraged the arriving Peach Blossom Fairy and the old immortal to the extreme.

“Put down the Dragon King’s spine!”

To slay a dragon and a person was one thing, but to desecrate the corpse…

The two true immortals could not accept such a tragedy unfolding before their eyes.

However, even though the immortal weapons they threw carried supreme power, the dark figure standing atop the dragon’s corpse on the snowy plains remained indifferent to the arrival of the immortal weapons, not even bothering to counterattack.

He simply gave the two true immortals a cold glance, then turned his gaze towards Xiao Yecao and Li Muyang at the edge of the sky.

Frowning, the shadow muttered something under his breath and vanished into thin air with the True Dragon’s spinal bone in the next instant, as if he had never been there.

The furious strikes of the two immortals hit nothing but the empty snowy plains, shattering countless ice caps.
