Chapter 333 - Royal Transfer (2/2)

Then an azure flame flickered from his forehead.

The azure flame expanded into a firebird. It took to the skies and shot for the petrified dragon soul.

The dragon soul downright panicked, shuddered, then hightailed it.

A bit too late for that, unfortunately. The azure bird flashed before it and clawed at its body. It held the dragon like a meager worm as it doubled back.

The dragon soul only whimpered as the bird flew back to Zhuo Fan.

Now that got a reaction out of the crowd, or more precisely a lack of reaction. People stared at Zhuo Fan blankly. Huangpu Qingtian’s mind blew away as he couldn’t quite find any words to speak.

[What the hell? That’s a Dragon Vein Soul! How does a blue bird get to dangle it back just like that?]

“The kid has his own spirit, far stronger than even Huangpu Qingtian’s Dragon Vein Soul!” Fang Qiubai shouted.

The Dragon Vein Soul was a rarity in the world, the symbol of kings. Who thought it possible then that Zhuo Fan would have something far more deadly?

[Just who is he? He is from a third rate clan so why is he covered with treasures?]

Zhuge Changfeng stroked his beard, watching Zhuo Fan with blazing eyes.

Only Regent Estate’s side was in pain. The stronger Zhuo Fan was, the bigger the threat. And now that the king’s symbol was crushed so easily, this feeling only grew stronger.

This signified he was the rightful king upon this world, heaven approved.

Regent Estate’s resentment billowed and their hatred grew. Zhuo Fan, the little demon, no longer just had the potential to be a threat, but a veritable one at their own survival. A monster that defied the heavens.

“We need to make time and seek the High Priest for answers. Where did he come from? How did he make the Dragon Vein Soul surrender?” Huangpu Tianyuan sighed.

Leng Wuchang nodded as well, his face deep in ponder.

Man proposed and heaven disposed. Leng Wuchang had flawless plans, but that only accounted for men. Anything he tried with those decreed by heaven would be rendered null. They would be under providence’s care and would come back from death’s door stronger than ever.

He never wanted to mess with these freaks for the same reason.

Huangpu Qingtian qualified as one when he got the dragon soul’s approval. All of the Regent Estate, including him, called Huangpu Qingtian as heaven’s chosen. That his arrogance was god given and justified.

That belief only grew stronger as the third of the Four Pillars, Tianyu’s High Priest gave his vague acknowledgment.

But at this very moment, this heaven’s chosen was being eaten alive by Zhuo Fan. Even his guardian, dragon soul, could do nothing to stop it.

[Is this also by providence that the punk has a kingly disposition? Or is it perhaps coming from somewhere beyond heaven?]

Leng Wuchang saw Zhuo Fan as a fearful enigma.

Huangpu Qingtian saw his dragon soul coming back in the bird’s claws and cried, “Zhuo Fan, who the hell are you? You just called yourself emperor, then…”

“None of your business!”

Zhuo Fan mocked, “All you need to know is this. Messing with me is the worst mistake of your miserable life!”

Zhuo Fan took a bite out of his throat this time, tearing it off.

Blood poured and Huangpu Qingtian’s eyes dulled, feeling his life drained from him. With that, the golden energy left his body and entered Zhuo Fan.

The azure bird brought the dragon soul back. Just in time to see the golden energy moving into Zhuo Fan, it released its claws in shock.

The dragon soul roared in its newfound freedom.

But it didn’t attack Zhuo Fan this time, and instead circled him twice. It watched the golden energy move then entered Zhuo Fan’s body itself.

Roar!

As another dragon roar came, Zhuo Fan didn’t seem to feel any change but then he exploded with light.

The azure bird nodded and returned into Zhuo Fan as well.

Huangpu Tianyuan, having witnessed this event, cried, “Royal transfer! The world is about to change!”
