Within a radius of several hundred zhang, dust filled the air, gradually settling down. At the edge of the dust, a figure in white, stained with blood, limped and staggered forward, leaning on a long sword, and slowly emerged. The figure stood at the edge of the ruins, looking around. It was Ye Wushuang!
At this moment, Ye Wushuang’s face was utterly devoid of color, like a corpse, and the dreadful wound on his chest was truly terrifying. On his shoulder, a small spirit beast flapped its wings, baring its teeth and glaring at the people around, looking very angry. The little spirit beast was covered in soft scales, had a pair of wings on its back, and a pair of small horns on its head, giving it a somewhat formidable appearance.
“Sss!!!” The little spirit beast let out a fierce hiss. However, its rather cute appearance did not have much of a deterrent effect.
But then, as the dust gradually dissipated and the mist cleared, everyone saw something astonishing. A gigantic figure, more than ten zhang tall, lay crouched on the ground, standing behind Ye Wushuang. Its scales shone like fire and stone, its two horns on its head were exceptionally bright, and its eight wings fluttered gently, making people feel that if these wings were to spread out, there would likely be endless gales roaring out, capable of tearing everyone apart.
“Eight-Winged Red Smelting Python!” Qing Shihua’s face trembled at the sight. The Five-Stage Spirit Beast of Qingyun Academy, the Eight-Winged Red Smelting Python, had been tamed by the first president of Qingyun Academy. However, after the death of the first president, Qingyun Academy could no longer control this beast. In the past, to prevent any issues with the Eight-Winged Red Smelting Python, the academy had used a great deal of manpower and resources to suppress two of them within the Qingliao Tower. Later, it was Ye Wentian who released the two Eight-Winged Red Smelting Pythons and eased the relationship between Qingyun Academy and the beasts. But after the Ye clan’s downfall, the two Eight-Winged Red Smelting Pythons had disappeared without a trace. So why were they here now? Qing Shihua was utterly perplexed.
“Lord Python!” “Lord Python!” Seeing the massive figure, Tang Chuyi, Shen Qian, Zhao Xuanmu, and other academy elders bowed deeply, their expressions filled with humility. However, the more than ten zhang tall Eight-Winged Red Smelting Python paid no attention to them. It lowered its huge head, exhaling white mist from its nostrils. It approached Ye Wushuang, looking at the bloodstains on his chest, and its expression seemed to be tinged with annoyance and guilt.
Ye Wushuang waved his hand and said slowly, “I won’t die.” But as soon as he spoke, his internal energy began to wane at an alarming rate, and he could barely stand, about to collapse. At that moment, three figures rushed forward and caught him. They were Xiao Yuan, Wang Xueqi, and Qing Chengtian.
“Sorry!” Xiao Yuan managed to say after a long while, his voice filled with grief and anger, “We were delayed.” “What are you sorry for?” Ye Wushuang smiled and said, “Didn’t we make it in time?”
At this moment, Chi Yuan was furious at seeing Ye Wushuang’s injuries and the rapidly fading signs of life. “Eight-Winged Red Smelting Python!” In the distance, Qin Xian, Liu Liangping, and Shang Xuehai, the three powerful warriors at the Fifth Tier of the Tiangang Realm, were utterly shocked. How could the Eight-Winged Red Smelting Python be here? This giant had always been stationed within Qingyun Academy and had not shown itself for nearly hundreds of years. The only time it had appeared was during the last Spirit Cloud Mountain trial when it took Ye Wushuang away. Could it be… Could it be that Ye Wushuang had befriended the Eight-Winged Red Smelting Python back then? That was impossible!
Qin Xian, Liu Liangping, and Shang Xuehai cautiously looked at the enormous Eight-Winged Red Smelting Python. Even without revealing its true form, the pressure from this superior being made it hard for them to breathe. Qin Xian mustered his courage and stepped forward, saying, “Our Five Great Clans have no grudge against you. We wanted to kill Ye Wushuang today because…”
Boom… Before Qin Xian could finish his sentence, the wings of the Eight-Winged Red Smelting Python suddenly unleashed a fierce gale. One of its claws reached out through the air, grabbing for Qin Xian…
