The Traceless Sword made some whistles.

That was a joyous whistle of the sword. The whistles were loud and clear as the sword shook. It felt as if it had been waiting for a long time.

At this moment, Chi Guyan fell from the sky and landed slowly on the ground with scars on her arms and legs.

She wanted to look for the sword.

It was a subconscious move.

However, she soon realized that the Traceless Sword was being held by a black shadow and whistling sounds was made continuously from the Traceless Sword.

“Shameless thief?” Chi Guyan mumbled as she closed her eyes gradually. However, she quickly opened her eyes and said, “Wait a minute, who are you?!”

...

The Heaven Zen Mountain was very tall.

Even a trained soldier needed at least three hours to climb from the foot of the mountain to the peak.

Of course, for a powerful Sage like Qian Yu, the time required was different.

Qian Yu was very fast. She only left behind a flash of her shadow when she sprinted through the woods. One could not even see the footprints she made on the ground.

Moreover, that was not the fastest Qian Yu could go.

That was because she had to take care of the disciples who were following behind her.

Even though the disciples of the Ling Yun Tower had parted ways, Qian Yu could not escape alone. She kept looking at the directions where the disciples ran towards and were prepared to provide assistance when necessary.

However, at this moment...

A crowd appeared in front of her.

There were so many people that one could not see the end of the crowd. Every single one was wearing black armor and they looked like black clouds that surged towards the peak of the mountain.

“Don’t tell me Monster Emperor Baizhi placed Demon soldiers at the foot of the mountain?!” Qian Yu’s body trembled. She did not notice the soldiers waiting for them at the foot of the mountain when she was ascending the mountain.

However, that did not mean that there were no soldiers.

If Monster Emperor Baizhi had predicted that she would come and commanded the Demon soldiers to hide in the woods, it would be normal for her to not notice them.

It sounded rather exaggerated.

However, nothing was impossible if Yun Qingwu was the one who made the plot.

“Why are there so many Demon soldiers? Does Heaven really want the Ling Yun Tower dead?!” Qian Yu looked down and could tell that there were at least tens of thousands of soldiers.

Perhaps there were even more than that.

That was because there were loud footsteps and roads coming from the forest.

“Yu’er?! It’s really Yu’er!” Just as Qian Yu was about to turn desperate, a familiar voice came from the “black clouds”.

Then, a figure charged out from the black clouds and reached Qian Yu almost instantly. He was wearing a golden armor with a black cloak.

“You? Why... are you here?!” Qian Yu recognized the person in front of her instantly. He was none other than the Emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty.

Emperor Lin Mubai.

However, she did not understand why Lin Mubai had to add a black cloak to his armor, making him look as if he was a demon soldier.

Most importantly, why did Lin Mubai arrive at the Heaven Zen Mountain?

“I am coming to help you, Yu’er!” Emperor Lin Mubai waved and the soldiers behind him stopped moving.

“Greetings, Her Majesty!”

“Greetings, Her Majesty!”

“...”

The soldiers greeted in unison.

However, Qian Yu frowned.

“Shut up!” Qian Yu shouted and turned to Lin Mubai. “I told you I will never allow you to join the trip to the Heaven Zen Mountain. Are you trying to ruin the future of the Great Xia Dynasty and kill these innocent soldiers by doing this?!”

“If we lost this battle, would Great Xia Dynasty still have a future?” Emperor Lin Mubai asked back, “Rats leave a sinking ship, the plight of the Southern Region had told me that nobody can be excused from this battle!”

“Fight till our deaths!”

“Protect the Dynasty!”

“Fight till our deaths!”

“Protect the...”

The soldiers shouted in unison when they heard Emperor Lin Mubai.

Meanwhile, Emperor Lin Mubai took a step forward and put his hands over Qian Yu’s shoulders, stopping her from continuing. “Yu’er, I know what you want to say. You want to say that I am forcing them to their deaths by allowing them to participate in this battle, right? No, Yu’er, you don’t understand. For you... I am willing to do anything!”

“What can you do?” Qian Yu asked.

“I can go against the will of the ex-Emperor, I can forget about the lessons given by the ancestors. As long as I can save the world and you, I can give up everything I have!” said Emperor Lin Mubai.

“Do you know what you are saying?”

“Of course, I do. As the Emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty, I have to obey the laws. I know my actions no longer justify my position as the Emperor, therefore, I have already given an order to pass my throne to ‘Lin Yun’ in the next month!” Emperor Lin Mubai looked extremely determined.

“Mubai, you...” Qian Yu’s body shook and her lips moved as she stared at Lin Mubai. However, she did not say anything eventually.

However, she stood quietly on the spot and allowed Lin Mubai to hold onto her. She did not resist but instead tightened her grip onto Lin Mubai.

“Rest assured, Yu’er, I did it, he is coming!”

“He? Who?”

“A person who can save the world!”

“No no no, Mubai, I know your intentions but the situation has changed. Another powerful individual has descended, the Candle Dragon, the legendary Candle Dragon, do you know him?”

“Candle Dragon?!” Lin Mubai’s expression changes drastically.

“That’s right, without his sudden appearance, Guyan and I would have won this battle already, do you understand? Even Chi Guyan can’t win the Candle Dragon, nobody in this world can defeat him!”

“He can!”

“Are you referring to Fang Zhengzhi?”

“No, this concerns the reputation of Emperor Taizu, I only knew about the ‘prohibition’ that Emperor Taizu left behind recently...”

“Prohibition?”

“Yes, in the will of Emperor Taizu, he wrote that nobody was to activate the prohibition or... the Great Xia Dynasty would end up in an irreversible disaster.”

“What is the prohibition?”

“Yu’er, forgive me as I can’t answer you. However, if I am not wrong, he should be at the peak of the Heaven Zen Mountain already. Moreover, besides him, the troops of the other three dynasties are also rushing to the Heaven Zen Mountain. Yu’er, please, believe me, humankind can win this battle, we definitely can!” said Lin Mubai determinedly after a slight hesitation.

“At the peak of the mountain?!” Qian Yu turned to look at the peak of the mountain. She could not believe that someone was able to “pass by” without being noticed by her.

However, Lin Mubai was the one who said that.

A man who would not lie to her at this point in time.

Moreover, the four empires had always been fighting against each other. Yet, Lin Mubai was so certain that the other three empires would send their troops to the Heaven Zen Mountain at the same time?

Who would have such capability and credibility?

...

At the peak of the Heaven Zen Mountain, Chi Guyan gaze was fixated on the black shadow in front of her. She was shocked when she saw the Traceless Sword in that shadow’s hand.

After all, it was the Traceless Sword.

Only Fang Zhengzhi could draw the Traceless Sword in the world. This was a known fact amongst the people in the Great Xia Dynasty.

She was able to use the Traceless Sword thanks to Fang Zhengzhi.

However, now...

The Traceless Sword was in the black shadow’s possession. Moreover, instead of resisting, the Traceless Sword made whistles of happiness.

“Who are you? Who on earth are you?” Chi Guyan struggled to stand up but because of her severe injuries, her feet were trembling.

“Chi Guyan? The daughter of Chi Hou?” The black shadow spoke. His voice sounded very ancient and distant.

“You...”

“Rest assured, I’m not your enemy, I’m your friend.” The shadow shook his head when he saw the expression on Chi Guyan’s face. Then, he took off the black cloak on his head.

It was an aged face.

Like an old tree trunk, there were many deep wrinkles from the forehead to the cheeks. On top of that, his hair was fully white.

However, the pair of eyes on that aged face...

Was as sharp as a sword.

The body of the Candle Dragon tumbled in the air and the thick black clouds expanded and contracted continuously. The blow that hit him earlier on seemed to have injured him as well.

The appearance of the black shadow surprised him slightly. However, it merely surprised him a little.

After all, nobody dared to disobey the Candle Dragon. Therefore, why would he bother about a guy who randomly appeared?

That was the attitude of the Candle Dragon.

However, Monster Emperor Baizhi who was nearby was staring closely at the aged face and the sharp eyes with her fingers trembling.

That was because she was Monster Emperor Baizhi, the nine-tailed white fox.

Her innate premonition told her that the man in front of her was extremely terrifying. There was immense power in the body of the man.

“Who are you? There’s nobody like you amongst the Human Alliance!” Monster Emperor Baizhi spoke as she showed her fangs and snow-white fur.

She was on her guards.

She was ready to defend against the sudden attack of the man.

“So this is the Candle Dragon? The ancient Godly beast... the God of Mountain Zhong? I can’t believe such a thing existed.” Instead of answering Monster Emperor Baizhi, the man stared quietly at the thick black clouds that were tumbling in the sky and the Candle Dragon who appeared in the thick clouds.

“How can an ant like you call my full name like that?” The Candle Dragon roared furiously and a bolt of black lightning shot out from his mouth.

It was extraordinarily fast.

It was aimed directly at the top of the man’s head.

Boom!

The black bolt of thunder hit the man’s body and traveled from his head to his toe as the bolts of lightning went around his body.

However, the man continued to look up.

His hand, which was holding onto the Traceless Sword, did not move at all. He stared calmly at the Candle Dragon and allowed the bolts of lightning to shine on his body. Then, the bolts of lightning disappeared.

“Hmm?” The Candle Dragon was shocked as the bolts of lightning he used to attack which had managed to injure Chi Guyan did not injure the man at all?

Was he a Godly State expert?

However...

The Candle Dragon looked up at the closed Gate of God of the Realm of God and shook his head. The Gate of God was not opened, hence how would a Godly State expert appear?

Moreover, there were only a handful of ancient Godly State experts who could defend against his attack of the black bolts of lightning.

The person in front of him was definitely not included.

“Chi Guyan, leave the rest to me. His Majesty has arrived, he will leave with you, you can finally recuperate,” said the man as he looked at Chi Guyan.

“Thank you... Senior.” Chi Guyan nodded.

She did not reject and sat on the ground immediately. That was because her instincts told her that although the man was very powerful, he would not hurt her.

As what the man had said, they were not enemies.

The man smiled heartenedly when Chi Guyan sat down. Then, he looked up again at the Candle Dragon.

“Tell me your name, Human!” The Candle Dragon stretched out one of his dragon claws amidst the thick black clouds. A sharp cold radiance flowed and it was extremely chilling.

“My name? Hmm... it has been ages since someone asked for my name... to be honest, I almost forgot what is my name. However, I have been asked this question repeatedly today and now, a Candle Dragon is asking me the same question, how refreshing.” The man smiled and the wrinkles on his aged face became more obvious.

Then, he pointed his Traceless Sword towards the sky.

He pointed it directly at the third eye of the Candle Dragon.

A chilling purple radiance radiated on the blade of the Traceless Sword. It flowed continuously like blood, as though something was about to come out from the sword.

Roar!

A purple dragon leaped and flew out of the Traceless Sword. The scales on the dragon was so distinct that the marks could be seen clearly.

“Long time no see, old friend, today we are working together again to kill the dragon!” The man spoke with a deep voice. He took a step forward and disappeared.

The only thing left was a purple beam of light that shot up to the sky.

It tore the darkness apart.

Dragon!

“Slayer!”

“Slash!”

The man’s voice echoed through the air. It sounded like it was coming from somewhere far but also sounded like it was just beside one’s ear. Meanwhile, the purple dragon flew in the sky.

Boom!

Boom!

“...”

Lightning flashed across the sky and it started raining. The rain was purple and made sounds of water dripping when it landed on the thick black clouds on the Can’s body.

“Dragon Slayer Slash? Isn’t that Fang Zhengzhi’s... hold on, it’s not Fang Zhengzhi, Fang Zhengzhi can’t possibly appear here. Moreover, that brat can’t be so powerful. You... you are... Meng Tian?!” Monster Emperor Baizhi saw the purple dragon soaring towards the sky and something seemed to have struck her.
