The Strongest Dragon in the Era of Beast Taming

Chapter 552: Chapter 546: Fame Spreads Through Umbral

“`

The scorching mist steamed out of the ice sculpture, enveloping the sky and earth, causing the temperature of this realm to soar to extremes in an instant.

The pervasive heat startled Goldy, who was watching from afar, prompting it to instinctively burrow into the ground, exposing only an occasionally glimmering foolish fish eye to watch.

“Eek!” (How is this possible!)

A trace of shock flashed through Rainbow Spirit Dragon’s eyes as it subconsciously began to activate Holy Entanglement and Spatial Frostquake, unleashing a far more tyrannical aura than before.

Snowflakes as big as goose feathers began to drift down from the sky, their inherent spatial vibrations causing the atmosphere to tremble, and myriad barely perceptible ripples of space slowly emerged.

Meanwhile, the ice sculpture Daphne had transformed into had completely melted, and an invigorating sun rose slowly, its gentle yet ominously dangerous rays enveloped everything in the Mesona Space with a layer of red silk, foreshadowing the impending release of the Class VI fire and dragon dual-type skill, Solar Eclipse.

Seeing the apocalyptic scene unfolding before him, David Jones immediately called out to halt it.

At his words, Rainbow and Daphne exchanged glances, and the ice and red twilight that filled half the sky disappeared abruptly.

“Eek!” (Boring!)

Rainbow glanced upward at David Jones, reverted to its miniature form, and wrapped itself around his wrist.

“I asked you to spar, not to fight to the death. Had those two skills collided, we could debate whether or not you would have been injured, but those elixirs we painstakingly planted recently would have been utterly ruined.”

David tapped Rainbow on the head with his finger.

He had previously forbidden inner-team pet duels for rank because he feared Rainbow would get carried away in battle and cause tremendous damage to the Mesona Space.

Rainbow turned its head and snorted lightly, an exasperated expression that read “I know, I know, no need to keep saying it.”

In contrast to Rainbow’s slight irritation, Daphne was quite pleased.

Although neither side had brought out their trump cards for a direct clash, Daphne was satisfied with being evenly matched against the boss using only half its strength and grew even more confident in its previous conjectures.

As for the trivial honor of being first in the team, Daphne did not care much, as it was accustomed to letting Rainbow be the boss.

After all, the boss would genuinely step up when needed and would really share suitable Pet Resources. Lying back as a carefree, lazy junior didn’t seem too bad.

After giving Daphne a full-body checkup and confirming that the Dragon-Breath Herb was as the Illusion-Piercing Eye had Identified without any hidden problems, David exited the Mesona Space contentedly and settled into the city lord’s mansion with Rossetti Lindwood and Greenox.

…

“A Healer capable of curing Hemorrhagic Fever has appeared in Silver-Abyssal City!”

Similar messages had quietly begun to spread to the main city of Night County, even reaching the main city of Spring Mansion, causing ridicule among many Ghosts.

“It’s already the fifth year of the Umbral Era, cure Hemorrhagic Fever? You must still be dreaming!”

“Silver-Abyssal City? What sort of backwater town is that? Never heard of it. It’s not just some city that doesn’t even qualify as a County City, right?”

“Exactly, what era are we living in that fools still believe Hemorrhagic Fever can be cured!”

“No more talk, brothers. Instead of believing in this nonsense, you might as well believe I’m a reincarnated Ghost Immortal. Just a hundred low-grade Magic Stones, and you won’t be cheated or disappointed. When I return as a Ghost Immortal one day, becoming the lord of a mansion, I will appoint you all as lords of a city.”

“`

A big man clad in beast-hide clothing, with a gaunt complexion and breath at the initial level of a Ghost Prince, finished speaking and fiercely gulped down the alcohol from the cup before him. The sparkling liquid slowly dripped down his chin, eliciting raucous laughter from the people around him.

“Every reincarnated Ghost Immortal is an exceptional genius; Black-Lame, aren’t you afraid the noble ones could easily take your dog’s life for slandering Lord Ghost Immortal like this!” said the man in strong attire sitting opposite the big man, with a laugh.

“Lord Ghost Immortal is like the stars in the sky, how could he possibly stoop to deal with such an insignificant speck of dust like me? He would probably find it beneath him to even dirty his hands to kill me,” replied the big man nonchalantly, sneering.

To date, the strongest person he had ever seen was only a Ghost King! A Ghost Immortal? He expected he would never have a chance to meet such a distinguished figure in his lifetime!

“A frog in a well cannot conceive of the sky’s bright moon!”

With a veil covering her face and in a private visit incognito, Lornaa Lindwood cast a glance at the crude big man not far away, a trace of disdain in her eyes.

For the sake of her brother’s incurable disease, her heart was definitely inclined towards the emergence of a highly skilled healer in Silver-Abyssal City.

“True or false, once we see it with our own eyes, we shall know,” Theodore Lindwood said calmly, not minding picking up the beef from the table under the astonished gaze of his sister.

Lornaa, on the other hand, had no intention of eating.

Without excessive cultivation and combat, a powerhouse who has reached Ghost Emperor Level could completely take in the energy of heaven and earth to sustain bodily functions, and could go months without food or drink with ease.

Moreover, accustomed to delicacies from the mountains and seas, she had no appetite for the plain meal before her.

Despite the veil over her face, Lornaa’s exceptional temperament still brought her more than a little trouble.

“Girl, you’ve got a nice figure, how about sharing a drink with me?” The big man in beast-hide, eyes lighting up at the sight of her extraordinary presence, stood up and invited her.

A middle-aged Ghost Soldier limited to such a feeble level, accompanied by a maid with a distinguished air and strength at the Ghost Lord Level – he had seen such a down-and-out, fleeing duo in Boundary Mountain before; the fortune he’d earned from taking a risk at that time had catapulted him from an average Ghost Lord to a somewhat famous Ghost Prince in the lower echelons of Spring Mansion.

However, he did not know that because of his words, the Blood Shadow lying hidden behind Lornaa immediately set her sights on him.

“Boring, there are always some insects who don’t know their own stature, and seem to be begging to be crushed to death.”

All Lornaa did was turn to glance at the beast-hide-clad big man, and a terrifying Domination overwhelmed his spirit in an instant, causing his blood to churn within, and after a great amount of fresh blood spilled from the corners of his mouth, he collapsed to the ground, dead.

The sudden turn of events caused the previously noisy atmosphere of the tavern to fall silent.

Even the Ghost Prince, who had died from a mere casual comment, made the other, lesser Ghosts not dare to speak a word, fearing they might suffer the same fate.

Seeing this, Theodore shook his head, helplessly.

A fine meal had been disrupted just like that, which left him somewhat speechless, but he didn’t take it too much to heart.

Now Theodore only hoped that the mysterious healer that had appeared in Silver-Abyssal City was made of true mettle and not mere pretense. Otherwise, if it were to provoke his sister’s Rage, the healer’s fate would only be more tragic than that of the big man in beast-hide.

On the other hand, the news of Theodore and Lornaa’s excursion could be hidden from others, but not from the Blood Sanctum Clan and Green Wood Saint Clan, which had been entrenched in Rillfort Mansion and Spring Mansion for many years and maintained close contact with the Umbral Royal Family.

The statuses of Theodore and Lornaa were above that of many princes and princesses – even the Thirteen Sacred Clans could not ignore them.

Unable to stay put, the two great Sacred Clans swiftly ascertained the facts behind these events. The name David Jones emerged at this moment, becoming known throughout the vast Umbral territory, drawing the attention of numerous noble families and powers.
