Chapter 1037 – The Warmth After Death

In the extremely far reaches of the Southern Sea, a stream of light suddenly stopped and the Angel of Sacred Light appeared.
Its body had been run through by the Buddha Vairocana Sword, inflicting upon it severe injuries that not even its divine blood could repair.
It had to return to Xuelao City as quickly as possible, where it could receive the sustenance of the sacrificial altar.
But a black mountain range had appeared in the northern skies and blocked its path.
Afterward, no matter what direction it chose, it could not make its way around the black mountain range.
The mountain range could move, as it was a Black Frost Dragon.
Even in the Sacred Light Continent or in that prehistoric world of light, the Black Frost Dragon had been one of the noblest and rarest of creatures.
But this Black Frost Dragon was still immature. Usually, the Angel might have been wary, but it would never have retreated without a fight.
However, its injuries were too severe. Only by relying on the speed of its wings could it guarantee that it was not caught, but it did not dare to act lightly.
It was just that after so long, its injuries had gradually worsened. The moment had finally arrived where it had to fight to the death.
The sun shone over the mirror-like surface of the sea. The mists rising from the sea were somewhat stuffy and hot.
The Angel turned to face the horizon.
A black line swiftly approached and then came to a sudden halt.
Accompanied by a fierce dragon cry, the black-clothed girl walked on the air toward it.
The languages of the Divine race and the Dragon race were very similar, so the Angel could understand her meaning.
”My injuries truly are very severe, but I still have the strength to kill you.”
The Angel's face was abnormally pale, practically transparent, yet its expression was extremely solemn and majestic.
It used its extremely complicated language to intone, ”In this sea so far from the continent, there will be no one who can help you.”
At the very start, it had attempted to travel through the snowy mountains to return to the land of demons. It had traveled through the center of the continent for quite some time, even managing to avoid the little Black Dragon's barriers several times. However, at the final pass, it had chosen to give up, because it had sensed that several extremely powerful Qis were waiting for it on the path ahead.
One of these Qis was like the sun, another like an ancient well, and one was like a blade.
It was clear that the human experts were waiting at various places on the continent to kill it.
The Angel did not dare take such a risk. It left the continent, traveling far into the Southern Sea.
'Fight to the death' was really just seeking life in death.
That Daoist and the white-clothed girl had more important matters to handle in White Emperor City, like the fate of that young man.
As long as it could kill this Black Frost Dragon, no one else on the continent could keep up with its speed.
When the time came, as long as it chose a good route, avoiding those human experts around the continent, it was highly likely to return to Xuelao City.
A divine chant flowed out from the Angel's thin lips.
Its expression became even more solemn, extremely majestic, and incomparably pious.
Its Qi became much stronger.
It placed all its hope and glory on this coming battle.
……
……
The little Black Dragon did not have a very solemn expression. It could not even be considered serious.
Seeing the Angel continuing to increase its strength, she did not seem at all like she was facing a powerful foe. On the contrary, she looked at the Angel like it was an idiot.
She suddenly remembered something her father had told her many, many years ago.
”Those Angels, their pride makes them stupid. It's best to kill them.”
Yes, Father.
These Angels are just as stupid as Father said they were.
The little Black Dragon felt a tinge of sorrow.
Between the blue skies and waters, there was no wind, no sound.
Suddenly, the water began to move, incessantly sloshing as if it was coming to boil.
Several dozen islands, big and small, slowly rose from the sea.
Lying on those islands, in a variety of shapes and sizes… were dragons.
This place was the Dragon Isles, where all the dragons in this world resided.
