Chapter 1089: Chapter 1089: Dragon Hunt
As he spoke, he led his companions into a larger living room next door, surrounded by magical patterns.
Circles of orange light rose from under Lan Xuanyu’s feet, and the radiance emitted by the six orange Soul Rings illuminated the entire room dazzlingly. The last orange ring’s light intensified significantly, and in an instant, Lan Xuanyu’s body was covered with silver scales that surged forth, transforming into a radiant silver halo that enveloped all six of them.
With a flash of silver light, the six vanished into thin air.
When they reappeared, they were on a hilltop in the suburbs. The night breeze was gentle, carrying a fresh and comfortable scent. The thick life energy gave them a feeling of refreshment throughout their bodies.
Lan Xuanyu checked the positioning system he had purchased on Sky Dragon Planet and gave everyone a thumbs up.
“The ferocious beast-level space element control is really impressive!” Qian Lei exclaimed sincerely.
Yuanen Huihui rubbed his hands, “It’s been a long time since I’ve fought, and my hands are getting itchy.”
Lan Xuanyu smiled slightly, “The Dragon Hunt operation officially begins.”
They were now far from Fenglong City, in the suburbs near Xiaoyun City, the closest city to Fenglong.
As the saying goes, a rabbit doesn’t eat the grass by its burrow, and Lan Xuanyu had never intended to make a move in Fenglong City. After all, the Dragon Clan is crucial for Sky Dragon Planet, and every dragon there was monitored. Any disappearance of a dragon would surely lead to an investigation. Even if they could leave without a trace, the disappearance of a dragon would still draw attention.
Therefore, Xiaoyun City was their first stop.
“You guys get ready here; I’ll lure the enemy,” Lan Xuanyu said to the five, and in the next instant, the Emerald Demon Warship was released. With a flash of light, Lan Xuanyu vanished into the warship.
The light shot up into the sky and vanished in mid-flight, leaving not even a trace of Lan Xuanyu’s presence.
Watching the direction in which Lan Xuanyu disappeared, Qian Lei said, “With the Emerald Demon Warship and Space Element Control, the boss really is getting more elusive.”
“Stop talking and get ready,” Lan Mengqin snapped at him.
The Emerald Demon Warship flew at an extremely fast speed, which Lan Xuanyu could control effortlessly.
From afar, he could already see the vast city. Xiaoyun City was larger in scale than Fenglong City. As Huang Daoqi had said, Fenglong was indeed the weakest among the sixteen major cities.
Under the illusionary abilities of the Treasure Hunting Beast, he was completely hidden in the air, reducing his speed as he entered Xiaoyun City.
The nighttime streets of Xiaoyun City were bustling, with various races of the Dragon Horse Galaxy visible. However, Lan Xuanyu noticed that since the last disturbance by the Sky Domination Clan, he hadn’t seen any of their kind in Fenglong City. Similarly, none appeared in Xiaoyun City.
After briefly searching, Lan Xuanyu soon found a suitable target.
On the grand avenue of Xiaoyun City, a stout dragon from the Lower-rank Dragon Clan was walking briskly. However, its body swayed slightly, and it gave off a strange odor.
Having been on Sky Dragon Planet for some time now, Lan Xuanyu was familiar with this scent. It was an Illusion Drink. Extremely expensive, it induced hallucinations upon consumption which brought pleasure, a beverage particularly favored by the Dragon Clan for relaxation. However, it dulled the senses after consumption. Officially, the drink was banned on Sky Dragon Planet, but in reality, it was openly sold in all major cities—after all, only the Dragon Clan could afford it.
Before Lan Xuanyu, this member of the Dragon Clan was over fifteen meters long, but its wings seemed somewhat small, raising doubts about its ability to fly. Its body was covered in iron-gray scales, with none on its lower abdomen. Its obese belly nearly touched the ground as it moved. Its eyes appeared unfocused, clearly under the influence of an Illusion Drink. Undoubtedly, this was a lower-rank Dragon Clan.
Of course, everything should start from easy to difficult. The lower-rank Dragon Clan before him was no doubt suitable.
Judging from the energy aura, though this lower-rank Dragon Clan was an adult, it only had the energy fluctuations of about an eight-ringed Soul Douluo. It was unclear what its abilities were.
Lan Xuanyu slowly flew above it. The Emerald Demon Warship quietly retracted, and the Treasure Hunting Beast’s Illusion Ability activated. In the next moment, he had transformed into a member of the Dragon Clan, also lacking scales on the lower abdomen, and descended right in front of the lower-rank Dragon Clan.
The lower-rank Dragon Clan was striding forward, when a shadow flashed in front of it, and a smaller lower-rank Dragon Clan landed. As it landed, its wings even swept over its head, making it stumble and nearly fall to the ground.
“Idiot, are you blind?” the lower-rank Dragon Clan, influenced by the Illusion Drink, suddenly erupted in anger—even against one of its own kind.
Lan Xuanyu turned around and glanced at it. A disdainful voice emitted from within his dragon mouth, “Can you fly? A clumsy fool who can’t even fly has the audacity to use the main road?”
“Who are you saying can’t fly?” The lower-rank Dragon Clan immediately grew even angrier, as if a reverse scale had been touched. Against all odds, its wings, though somewhat folded, spanned wider upon spreading.
“Yeah, you! Look at how fat you are; what a disgrace to our Dragon Clan.”
“You looking for a beating?” The lower-rank Dragon Clan suddenly advanced, charging headfirst towards Lan Xuanyu.
Lan Xuanyu feigned resistance but quickly sidestepped, using the opponent’s sluggish reaction to slap it on the head with his wing.
Immediately, the lower-rank Dragon Clan was smacked sideways, collapsing directly to the ground.
“Can’t be bothered with you. If fighting wasn’t forbidden on the main road, I would’ve thrashed you today,” Lan Xuanyu said disdainfully, flapping his wings to fly again.
These false dragons of the Dragon Clan always acted recklessly and arrogantly on Sky Dragon Planet. From Lan Xuanyu’s observations, it was clear that other species respected but also despised the Dragon Clan.
That was indeed the case at this moment. On either side of the main road, seeing the spontaneous altercation between the two lower-rank Dragon Clan members, other species just watched as if enjoying a show, with nobody stepping forward to intervene.
In fact, according to the rules of Sky Dragon Planet, disputes within the Dragon Clan could only be handled by the Dragon Clan themselves.
Lan Xuanyu soared high, leaving the enraged lower-rank Dragon Clan behind. It knew that fighting was prohibited on the main road, which is why it had initially only intended a demonstrative butt with its head. However, not expecting a counterstrike, it was smacked down to the ground.
Seeing Lan Xuanyu trying to escape, it was unwilling to let go, vigorously flapping its wings twice, took a couple of running steps, and chased after Lan Xuanyu, emitting an angry dragon roar.
Lan Xuanyu noticed that this fellow indeed could fly, but its flight speed was hardly commendable. It was truly a disgrace to the Dragon Clan. It was probably one of the worst among the lower-rank Dragon Clan, with its heavy belly continuously sinking downwards.
Lan Xuanyu glanced back disdainfully, “With you, trying to catch up to me?” He slightly increased his speed, chasing back in the direction he came from.
As for their dispute, no one intervened at all. The Dragon Clan were belligerent and one of the strongest races. On Sky Dragon Planet, they enjoyed many privileges. As long as it wasn’t a fight to the death, generally speaking, even the Dragon Clan themselves usually did not interfere but let it run its course.
“Roar—” Under the influence of the Illusion Drink, the lower-rank Dragon Clan’s anger reached its peak, emitting an iron-gray halo from its body. Scales sprouted massively on its pair of dragon wings, which suddenly enlarged and flapped more powerfully in the air, substantially increasing its speed as it pursued Lan Xuanyu.
