Chapter 46 - Bashing Heads

In the blink of an eye, Zhou Yuan was behind the one named Qin Tong, he simply thrust his spear which pierced the latter's heart.

Squelch

Gasp

With a flick of his wrist, he withdrew his spear, Qi Tong put his hand over his chest which had a noticeable hole through it.

He did not even have time to scream as Zhou Yuan kicked him which made his body fly to the nearby rock where he collided and breathed his last breath.

All of this was done in a frighteningly swift manner, Ye Ming and the rest could only react when Qin Tong's body collided with the Rock.

'This Bastard, how is he so fast?'

Were their thoughts as they could barely see his Figure when he rushed at them, with them being dazed due to the Genesis Runes making their reaction relatively slow.

"One down 5 more to go", Zhou Yuan said in a sing-song voice.

Once In the blink of an eye, Zhou Yuan appeared in front of Fang Zhong.

This time he used his dragon claw to just puncture through his heart effectively ending his life.

"Two Down", Zhou Yuan said in a casual tone.

While It might seem like Zhou Yuan enjoyed killing them, he was not.

He was just eliminating potential threats, and would never harm innocent people.

And these people were not innocent as they were planning to kill him.

Zhou Yuan would kill anyone who stood in his path and targeted him, this was his resolve since the time he came into this world, and this resolve has saved him multiple times.

"Yaoyao, Can you please handle these three? , I want to have a personal chat with Mr. Pilferer here", Zhou Yuan said while pointing his finger at Wu Huang.

Acquiescing to his request Yaoyao nodded slightly, Zhou Yuan had just killed two of them so she could easily handle 3 of them.

"Thank You Yaoyao, Mr. Pilferer let's go we have a lot to talk about.", Saying this Zhou Yuan flashed in front of Wu Huang caught his neck, and threw him to the other side of the forest.

If he needed to extract the blessing without using RDP then he had to absorb some of the sacred Dragon Qi and use Heavenly Yuan Brush's 2 Rune erode to get the feeling of manipulating the blessing, but to do that he had to force Wu Huang to use the sacred dragon transformation.

To force him to use it he needed to unilaterally beat him.

"Now then Let the beating begin", Zhou Yuan cracked his knuckles.

This was going to be a manhandling.

On the other hand, Wu Huang came to his senses, his anger grew as he realized that the crippled dragon dared to underestimate him.

After listening to his words he was completely enraged but before he could do anything, he was punched in the face by Zhou Yuan.

For the next few minutes, he was completely manhandled as Zhou Yuan executed many exquisite punches and kicks on him.

BAM

A punch to the stomach, nearly made him vomit.

Smack

A roundhouse kick to the torso broke his rib bones.

Thud

And a uppercut landed on his jaw.

Crack

Many of his teeth were broken.

The sound of punches and kicks landing was particularly large, so they also sounded in the ears of Ye Ming and the others.

Just hearing those impactful sounds made them Vince.

They could not imagine being on the receiving end of those punches and kicks.

There was also one more ironic thing.

As Wu Huang had a part of Sacred Dragon Qi he was very durable and resistant due to his body being refined by it which meant while these strikes hurt him enough to feel pain, they did not cause any substantial injuries except for some skin bruising, which made it a lot worse as Zhou Yuan continued to beat him.

After some time Zhou Yuan used magical python scales and landed a punch straight on his stomach.

CRACK

Wu Huang broke bones during that attack, and it was very painful judging from his facial expression.

He also coughed up blood indicating that an internal injury was also done.

This all happened when he tried his best to defend with his Genesis Qi.

Zhou Yuan felt that he had done enough when he saw Wu Huang wobbly trying to stand up, his arrogance and pride were greatly injured.

It seemed to work as Wu Huang's face grew distorted.

As Zhou Yuan stared, Wu Huang's bloody body shakily stood up from the hole.

Wu Huang's eyes were a sea of blood-red, filled with indescribable fury and savageness. Never in his wildest dreams would he have ever imagined that he would be beaten into such a pathetic state by that crippled dragon.

For the prideful and arrogant Wu Huang, this was even harder to accept than dying.

"Hahahaha…"

Wu Huang stared at Zhou Yuan. In the end, he lifted his head to the sky and laughed loudly, a laugh thick with murder.

"Zhou Yuan ah Zhou Yuan, I truly never expected that there would come a day when I, Wu Huang, would fall into such a pathetic and miserable state because of you."

"However…"

"Even so, you still cannot kill me!"

Mockery rose from the corners of his lips as he stared at Zhou Yuan and asked, "Do you know why?"

The savagery in his eyes grew more and more violent, before he suddenly ripped his clothes apart, revealing his naked body. One would see the faint silhouette of a dragon coiling on the surface of his skin.

Although he knew that Wu Huang had Sacred Dragon Blessing seeing it still caused Zhou Yuan's pupils to abruptly tighten, staring hard at the dragon silhouette in Wu Huang's flesh. A heart-rendering pain suddenly tore through him the instant he saw it.

An intense pain that had flooded out from the deepest part of his memory.

Back then, he had lain on that ice-cold altar while King Wu stole his sacred dragon blessing and poured it into Great Wu's python and sparrow. The intense pain he felt at that moment so many years ago was the same one he felt now...

Blood surged up in Zhou Yuan's eyes bit by bit.

This was the first time since his rebirth that he felt this infuriated.

He felt a very strong primal urge to kill and destroy from the depths of his soul.

He felt greatly insulted.

"Can you feel it?" Wu Huang laughed sinisterly.

The blood-red dot between his brows seemed to grow increasingly redder at this moment as a low dragon roar echoed from within his body.

"Hahahaha…"

"That's right. This is the sacred dragon blessing that had been stripped from your body back then!"

"With it protecting me, how can you possibly kill me?!"

Crisp cracking sounds emanated from Zhou Yuan's fist, his fingernails digging deep into his flesh.

His face twitched faintly as violent savagery flooded his eyes.

"So what if you're angry?"

Wu Huang released a chilling chuckle, cocking his head as he continued to stare at Zhou Yuan. "It seems that you've never experienced the sacred dragon blessing before, right? Since that is so, I'll let you have a good feel today."

"Zhou Yuan, how do you feel about dying by the sacred dragon blessing that originally belonged to you?"

"Haha, you pitiful worm! All of your efforts will turn to foam today!"

Wu Huang laughed madly. In the next instant, his expression twisted into incomparable maliciousness and savagery as a dark and chilling voice abruptly sounded.

"Dragon blessing, Dragon Transformation!"

Roar!

The berserk roar of a dragon seemed to thunder from Wu Huang's body at this moment.

While it continued to echo, the dragon silhouette on Wu Huang's skin faintly trembled, before flooding into his flesh and blood. Wu Huang's body immediately began to swell.

Dragon scales emerged on the surface of his body, while his hands also started showing signs of dragonification, sharp fingernails flickering with icy light that made one's heart thud a little harder.

Of course, the most terrifying transformation of all was the steadily strengthening Genesis Qi that had erupted from Wu Huang's body.

Even the surrounding floor began to crumble inch by inch due to the powerful Genesis Qi pressure.

Seeing this Zhou Yuan put his hand across his face as a red aura began to pulse around him.

At the same time killing intent seemed to physically materialize around him.

For the first time in his life, he was angered to the point that he let his DRP and his killing intent run rampant.

Just looking at Wu Huang he felt disgust and anger.

This bastard made the Sacred Dragon Qi look so...

PITIFUL

His use was so pitiful that it made DRP and him mad.

This sh*t head was not even able to utilize the 1/10 of the power of the sacred dragon blessing.

"You Bastard...How dare you flaunt my power in front of me, especially in such a deprecating way." Right now Zhou Yuan was feeling the same as Gilgamesh does when someone dared to lay a hand on his treasury.

Zhou Yuan could not explain why he was feeling this way, maybe it hurt his pride to see such a magnificent power being used in this way.

"Change of Plan Dragon Resentment Poison, get ready you are about to feast on your first prey.", he conveyed his will to DRP which seemed to roar in agreement.

While Wu Huang was laughing as if all was according to his plan, he was interrupted by Zhou Yuan.

"You"

"Huh", Seeing his somewhat calm demeanor, Wu Huang was stunned as this was supposed to make Zhou Yuan angry.

"If you have any Last prayers say them quickly because after this you won't get either the time or opportunity to do it", Saying this Zhou Yuan looked at him, but this look made him so deeply terrified that he took a step back.

Zhou Yuan's eyes were like a limpid pool of water, completely calm yet this calm reminded Wu Huang of the calm before the storm.

Zhou Yuan's eyes were completely devoid of any golden color, both his iris and pupil were red which made him look enchanting and dangerous at the same time.

His Eyes had a dragon slit which made him look even more dangerous.

After a time, Wu Huang calmed down and opened his mouth to once again mock Zhou Yuan before he was completely shut off.

"Forget it, anyway prayers won't work for people like you, You showed me your Dragon Transformation, right so I think It is high time I show you mine.", Zhou Yuan said as he closed his eyes.

The next second, Wu Huang's expression completely changed as terror overtook his features.

"Y-You H-how di-did you achieve this?"

The changed visage of Zhou Yuan who was standing in front of him had completely baffled him.

On the other side, the expression of the people from the Dongxuan continent had completely changed, feeling the outburst of powerful Genesis Qi and Killing Intent made them realize just how behind they were from those 2.

At the same time, Yaoyao felt the great emotional fluctuations from Zhou Yuan and felt a little worried but she ultimately decided to trust him and handle these 3 people.
