Heavenly Star (Web Novel)
chapter-188

The dark figure gave a hoarse and evil laugh, continuously evading and resisting the flames of the Heavenly Fire Dragon, all the while the laugh became more and more insolent, and disdainful. Right now the Heavenly Fire Dragon possessed a tremendous body, yet its remaining strength wasn’t even god-level, even less than ten percent of of its full bloom state. All these years he had feared it, buried and concealed in the dark, then he detected in the dark that its strength had substantially decreased all of a sudden, how could he let this great opportunity slip by.

“I must have thought of it before, all these years…… I’m still be able to feel presence of your breath. I originally thought that you’ve left it behind during those days, still wasn’t completely gone…… as it turned out, you were actually still hiding yourself within the Heavenly Star Continent.”

Boom! Boom! Boom…...

Red and black, fire and darkness collided, during the huge rumbles one after another, the collapsed Heavenly Fire Volcano was repeatedly being ravaged, until it was totally refuted, no longer containing the shape of a mountain.

After a short period of examination, the dark figure no longer doubted, the corner of his mouth split open, exposed a sinister smile. Facing the Heavenly Fire Dragon’s earth-shattering flames, he didn’t dodge and keep away from them, with both hands raised up, meeting the flames, slashed out a strike in the empty space.

The sky was suddenly filled up with a powerful element of darkness, the element of flames had been cleared off by its power, the tremendous image of the Blade of Reaper suddenly appeared, its body was emitting the dark fire which came from hell, the terrible blade was like a lightning that sliced through the Heavenly Fire Dragon’s body, the element of darkness produced a huge mark cutting across the empty space, making a line of destroyed image.

The shadow of the blade dissipated, the Heavenly Fire Dragon which was ruthlessly hit produced a miserable howl, its body flipped over a few rounds, the large dragon tail threw out, smashing onto the small dark figure.

Boom…...

A strike that was enough to flatten a mountain, was being blocked off by the black figure with one hand, his body was pushed back more than ten meters distance. Both sides have the widely different body build, yet similarly have widely different powers. The Heavenly Fire Dragon which had risked all its strength perceived a hint of perishing, for the first in all its life, it actually felt a feeling of being in a desperate situation. This time, the opponent seemed to be evenly matched with it, getting tangled together, but actually it was slowly consuming its own strength which was gradually decreasing at every moment.

Instilling its own strength to Ye Wuchen, the strength inside its body was almost used up, now that it seemed like vigorous and lively, but in fact it was gradually consuming its life force that can’t ever be regained back.

The strength that the dark figure used was infused with darkness and death, similar to Tong Xin. But as compared to Tong Xin, the balance of the darkness and death was different, the dominating element in his strength was the darkness.

He effortlessly ward off and weaken the flame of Heavenly Fire Dragon, using the power of darkness to carry out violent collision with it. The Yan Long City shook repeatedly, just like being under an earthquake. But all the people inside the city were as if unaware of it, they were all stupefied looking at the South area. Any people would have guessed that, the unceasingly circling and roaring creature was the legendary Heavenly Fire Dragon…… the legend, truly appeared before their eyes. And similarly they have guessed that, it was fighting against an enemy that they were unable to clearly see. The enemy, must be the owner of those dark lights which collided with the flames.

A man and a dragon, nobody dares to comment further, recklessly tangled together. They were enemies who will never stop until they die, without any possible reconciliation. The black figure had found it, the only one goal was to let it die.

Boom!!

The earth violently trembled again, that spiraling Heavenly Fire Dragon eventually fell down from the sky, it threw out its tail, flinging the black figure to a very far place, its body floated once more to the sky, with a loud dragon roar that was enough to break off all the clouds, its body color gradually turned from red to purple.

The black figure’s expression became more imposing, he used his fastest speed to rush ahead, increasing his own strength to the maximum level, the violently strike against Heavenly Fire Dragon’s body.

The Heavenly Fire Dragon’s body twisted painfully, yet it didn’t evade, also it didn’t even strike back, after it got hit it retreated for several thousand meters, its body completely turned purple, a round of purple flame ignited up from its body.

The eyes of the black figure violently contracted, without slightest bit of hesitation, he used his fastest speed to escape to the left side straight ahead, at the same time a black shield that continuously turned dark lighted up surrounding his body.

Roar!!!

A sound of dragon groan, spread throughout the entire southern area of Tian Long Nation. This is Heavenly Fire Dragon’s ultimate cry of despair, it took one last glance at the world which it had protected for countless years, its body exploded with a loud bang…...

A tremendous purple light beam took shape in a flash, upward until it reached the sky, downward until it reached the ground, almost connecting the heaven and earth together. All the people in the Yan Long City were stupefied, they clearly saw the Heavenly Fire Dragon self explode, its pieces of dragon body and its ultimate despair were earth-shaking, wildly shook all the people’s hearts. Causing them not to even feel the earthquake which was almost making the earth split open.

The Heavenly Fire Dragon had perished just like that. Nobody saw the beginning of its life, yet so many people had personally witnessed the tragic end of its life. That tremendous purple light beam, erupted as the ultimate flame that was burning its own remaining life force away, it has been burning for a very long time…...

In the place where the Heavenly Fire Dragon had self exploded, a red colored pearl fell down, falling below into the extremely deep abyss created by the explosion.

The dark light beside the black figure lightened up, his body slightly trembled, the breathing was utterly confused. Seeing that pearl fell down, he turned around and rushed to the front, using the fastest speed to catch it in his hand.

“Fire Dragon Pearl…… the source of Heavenly Fire Dragon’s power, with this, my power will regain again to become stronger and stronger……” holding the palm sized red pearl, he finally laughed being proud of himself. All of it went by smoothly, he grabbed on to this great opportunity bestowed by the heaven, destroyed the enemy that was once a hindrance, and will continue to become the hindrance, and he obtained this pearl.

Floating in the sky, he looked at the distant north, overcasted with evil thoughts he mumbled, “I will not die…… even if I lost everything, I will not lose my life. Those people who ought to die, were those who have hurt me. Before I make them all die…… no one will ever let me die!”

The voice dropped, he also disappeared in a lump of gloomy light, nowhere to be found.

As if being electrocuted, Ye Wuchen abruptly stopped his footsteps. Ning Xue and Tong Xin also halted their steps simultaneously, they all turned around to look at the South.

“Xue-er…… what have you discovered?” Ye Wuchen restraining his heartbeat, then cautiously asked.

Ning Xue’s face was full of bewilderment and suspicions, she thought deeply for a long while, shook her head and said, “So strange, a while ago it seemed like something familiar and somehow makes me frightened feeling arrived from that area. Don’t know why…… it’s really strange, do you know why, brother?”

Tong Xin also turned her face around, similarly looking at Ye Wuchen with a puzzled face.

Ye Wuchen went silent, then smiled and shook his head, “It must an amazing feeling. Since we don’t know, then let’s just don’t think about it.”

“En.” replied Ning Xue, then closed her eyes again, taking a nap in his arms.

The Heavenly Fire Dragon died…… Ye Wuchen couldn’t calm down his thoughts, even his footsteps were much heavier, those last few statements spoken to him by the Heavenly Fire Dragon during the last few moments of its life echoed in his mind.

After five days.

Bumping all the way through, Ye Shuiyao had finally arrived at the Tian Feng City, the capital of the Gale Nation. All throughout the journey she didn’t speak any word, once those maids who were serving her approached her, they felt some unsympathetic coldness in her.

Gale Nation, the unfamiliar nation, unfamiliar atmosphere, unfamiliar feeling. In this life, she will no longer be able to return back to her birthplace. The originally cold and introvert, now she was all along isolated and without help, just like the world had abandoned her.

Suffering from torment Feng Ling painfully waited for so many days personally went out of the city to welcome her, the city walls were extremely deep, he who was not used to showing his feelings this time his face was exposing an irresistible happiness, if it wasn’t for the dignity between nations, he wished to personally fetch her, Ye Shuiyao stepped down from the carriage, facing all different unfamiliar faces, she didn’t seem frenetic or at loss, but just lifted her head high, arrogantly looking at them. Merely with her height, had permitted those officials with medium build subconsciously hang down their heads.

Feng Ling was about to lend an arm to support her, but she took a cold glimpse, he took back his hands, stepped aside, with a gentle smile looking at her. During that time, it was her cold, proud and aloof attitude as well as her extraordinary beauty that had attracted him in an instant, he believed that without much time, he will soon convince her.

Ye Shuiyao’s cool elegance had blotted out numerous eyeballs, stunned numerous hearts. They were like looking at a goddess who descended to the world, the curiosity in their hearts transformed into admiration and being convinced. The Crown Prince abandoning everything for one woman was no secret, they finally understand the reason why the crown prince was utterly being infatuated with a woman from the Tian Long Nation. Even the national beauty of the Gale Nation ---- the publicly recognized Number One Beauty of Gale Nation was three times more inferior as compared to her

That day, Ye Shuiyao stayed inside the Yao Feng Pavilion that Feng Ling had prepared for her, Since he already knew her character, Feng Ling didn’t hold any kind of ceremony, he also didn’t allow anybody to disturb her, inside there were only a few maids, and he permitted them to just wait outside, only to enter when being summoned. The bedroom inside the pavilion was almost arranged similar to what she had in the Ye residence, Feng Ling racked his brains out to think of ways to let her adapt to this place as quickly as possible, and to feel at home.

Knowing that she likes painting, inside he prepared a huge quantity of the best painting papers, paint brush and dyes in the Gale Nation. After he arrived back to Gale Nation, his thoughts were mostly spent on Ye Shuiyao. In life, one has to go crazy a few times, to be dedicated for a few times. Feng Lie’s craziness and dedication had given him the ambition of dominating the entire world, and Feng Ling was given a woman.

When Ye Shuiyao arrived at Tian Feng City, Ye Wuchen happened to have returned to Tian Long City.
