Chapter 770: The Mysterious Great Lord

The powerful destructive force of the Golden Horned Beast King’s self-destruction rushed over his own subordinates and the Azure Dragon Institute Grand Elders, shattering them into pieces and leaving only a patch red blood mist.

Jia Xiangtian was flipped high into the air, then tumbled and rolled on the ground in the far distance. When he finally stopped, his body was covered with blood and dirt, the white of his bones could be seen here and there. Dragon Emperor Ao Taiyi’s strike earlier had left him with barely half a life, adding the destructive explosion force from the Golden Horned Beast King, Jia Xiangtian was now a lifeless broken corpse.

However, a Highgod Realm master didn't truly die if their godhead was unbroken and their soul intact, therefore Jia Xiantian was still alive.

A long time later, the destructive force from the Golden Horned Beast King’s self-destruction weakened and gradually dispersed.

After the dust storm subsided, the surroundings were calm and quiet.

The surrounding ground was now a few meters lower than it originally was, and the spot where the Golden Horned Beast King blew up became a giant pit several hundred meters deep, dark and seemingly bottomless.

It was fortunate that Huang Xiaolong secured the surrounding space prior with the God Restricting Golden Silkthread Rope, negating more than half of the destructive force from the explosion. On top of that, Huang Xiaolong had previously strengthened the Huang Clan Manor’s grand defensive formation, hence, the Huang Clan Manor avoided any damages. Otherwise, the Huang Clan Manor would have probably been razed to the ground, leaving nothing but pieces of ruins.

However, the city some hundreds of miles away was affected by the shockwaves. The entire city walls collapsed and the buildings inside crumbled into dust. Not a single survivor could be found inside the city.

Huang Xiaolong’s face sank looking at this. It didn’t occur to him in the slightest that the Golden Horned Beast King would choose to self-destruct.

“Something’s peculiar about this matter.” Dragon Emperor Ao Taiyi spoke in a gloomy voice.

Huang Xiaolong nodded.

The Golden Horned Beast King didn’t need to self-destruct, his actions were more like a death guard.

Huang Xiaolong’s eyes fell on the unconscious Jia Xiangtian’s body. A suction force from his palm pulled Jia Xiangtian’s body right in front of him.

A purple light flickered in Huang Xiaolong’s eyes and a purple-colored symbol flew out from his pupils, entering Jia Xiangtian’s forehead to scour his soul. A short while later, the soul-scouring ended, but Huang Xiaolong’s expression was gloomier than before.

Great Lord?!

The Golden Horned Beast King and Jia Xiangtian both actually took orders from this young man referred to as ‘Great Lord’, coming here to kill him?

And from Jia Xiangtian’s memories, even their Black Warrior Institute Vice Principal, that old witch Wang Na, the Jiang Family Patriarch Jiang Wuhuang, the Gudu Family Ancestor and Patriarch, all took orders from this young man they called Great Lord.

In the four galaxies, the number of Highgod Realm masters that submitted themselves to this Great Lord exceeded thirty!

However, Jia Xiangtian didn't know in detail which super force they belonged to.

“What is it?” Dragon Emperor Ao Taiyi asked seeing Huang Xiaolong’s expression.

Huang Xiaolong told Dragon Emperor Ao Taiyi what he discovered after the soul-scouring, and even the old dragon was astonished at the information. In the four galaxies, there were more than thirty Highgod Realm masters that were under the command of this young man they called Great Lord?!

That was a frightening thought.

This was equivalent to having control of over thirty super forces.

The reason why Huang Xiaolong was able to control the Phoenix Clan Ancestor, Huang Hongtian, and the rest was because he practiced the Ancient Puppetry Art and Soul Mandate, which enabled him to brand others’ soul.

Did that mean that the mysterious Great Lord cultivated similar techniques, being able to manipulate others through their soul?

Dragon Emperor Ao Taiyi asked this question to Huang Xiaolong, but he could only shake his head, having no answer himself.
