Boom!
The ice bird slammed into the Yin Dragon, dousing all its flames.
"Hehehe! It seems you have incompetence among your members." The Yin Dragon laughed as it showed its trump card, causing its body to heal at a speed visible to the naked eye. Within a minute, it had completely healed from all the injuries they had inflicted.
"Shit!" Krune groaned as he flew through the air, watching the firebird close in on him constantly, intending to kill him.
"Hah!" Chen Xue arrived behind it and slashed with her claws, using her frost powers to scatter part of the fire bird's attack, weakening it. Without any hesitation, she slammed forth numerous attacks, destroying the firebird within a dozen seconds.
Thanks to her mobility, she was able to evade the firebird's attacks. In any case, the moment it tried to attack her, Krune blasted an Air Needle at it, using the wind to scatter the flames.
Even though the flames wouldn't die just like that, once separated from the firebird, it was only a matter of time before they lost all power and dissipated.
"Kaaaa!" Krune opened his mouth, unleashing a primal roar that echoed everywhere when he closed his eyes, sensing the position of his enemies.
He then spotted the figures of two Imperial Meisters huddled behind a tree, watching the battle from afar.
Without any hesitation, he summoned the Cloud Whale and blasted an Air Needle towards them, catching them off-guard. After all, they had changed positions after summoning their respective birds of fire and ice.
So, they hadn't assumed that he would be able to locate them, not during the darkness of the night that hid them safely.
With that, the Air Needle pierced through both of them, causing them to scream as their bones were pierced through. Krune had targeted their legs, wishing to interrogate them. In short, his attack destroyed their kneecaps, causing them to flail on the ground in pain, unable to escape now.
With that taken care of, Krune gazed at the figure of the Yin Dragon, one that wasn't able to move. Even though it had been boasting, one of Krune's rings was still constricting it. As a Star Imperial Arms, its power was on a whole other level.
In other words, the Yin Dragon wasn't able to escape.
"I should have done this sooner," Krune smiled, surprised at the power of his Star Imperial Arms. After all, until now, all three rings hadn't even expended a bit of their power, making him understand the essence of why a Star Imperial Arms was said to be strategic trump cards.
Unlike when they were wielded by those that weren't Star Imperial Meisters, a Star Imperial Arms was able to harness the energy from the surroundings to attack.
Thanks to that, the ring that trapped the Yin Dragon was using the gravity in the surroundings to constrict the Yin Dragon, preventing it from moving no matter what. It was because this gravity was chaotic that it could not even amass strength in its muscles at all.
After all, no matter in which direction it flexed, the various pressures by gravity loosened and tightened the nerves accordingly, ensuring it wasn't even able to gather its strength. Thanks to this, it was rooted to the spot, unable to move.
"I see, so this is how that Demon within the capital has been kept sealed." He nodded in understanding. "Since it had been harnessing the power of the surroundings, the seal never ran out of energy."
"Haha, that was pretty anticlimactic." Wang Hao laughed as he appeared beside Krune, perfectly alright.
"Let's finish the other task first," Krune said, gazing at Wang Hao, "Ensure nothing happens here until I return."
"Sure, leave it to me." Wang Hao nodded, gazing at the Yin Dragon that had turned silent now.
In the meantime, Krune and Chen Xue arrived before the two Imperial Meisters that had targeted them, seeing that they were desperately trying to escape.
Earlier, when he was using his Sonic Radar using his shout, Krune noticed that the first Imperial Meister that had supported them had already retreated on his horse. He was returning to his city, having already done his job.
As for the fourth Imperial Meister, he had yet to arrive, not even in the vicinity. Upon asking his mother, he understood that the Imperial Meister had encountered some trouble and was hurrying back towards his city.
It was a Nightmare that had targeted his city during his absence. So, he promptly retreated.
Daxia Ting wasn't able to stop him. Rather, she was the one that had notified him of the situation, making him return after hearing that Krune had neutralized the traitors.
"So, let's talk," Krune said, grinning devilishly as he gazed at the two Imperial Meisters before him, holding a palm-sized Cloud Whale in his hand. He then unleashed an Air Needle, knocking away a ring one of them picked up all of a sudden, intending to use it.
'Demon Arms!' He nodded in understanding, flashing behind the second Imperial Meister as he fished out the other ring and knocked it away as well.
'I see. Since they hadn't begun to use it, they weren't registered in mother's Imperial Arms. There's this problem.' He nodded in thought, relaying the information to Daxia Ting.
Hearing her orders, he knocked out the two Imperial Meisters, ones that wished to live despite everything. He didn't wish to interrogate them. The Liu Family had enough experts in this field to pry out all the necessary information from them.
After taking their respective Imperial Arms, he told Chen Xue, "Bring them to the Liu Estate. Once you're done, return here. Can you do that?"
"That'll be a bit hard," Chen Xue said in response. "I don't have enough practice to sustain flight for so long. So, it might take longer than when we rode the Cloud Whale."
"That'll be fine." Krune nodded after hearing that. "It'll only get riskier after this. So, I want you to transport them first. Since no one knows of our identity yet, you should be safe as long as you use the cover of the night to your advantage."
"Alright, I'll do that," Chen Xue replied, tying up a piece of cloth around the injuries of the two Imperial Meisters to prevent them from bleeding to death.. She then picked them up, grunting a little before taking off to the sky, heading towards the Liu Estate.
