Chapter 944: The Demigod Serpent's Bloodline
Rumble...!
Ten minutes ago, the snowy mountain peak suddenly shook violently before plummeting over thirty meters lower.
The Divine Serpent Empire's forces were immediately into confusion and disorder by the mountain peak's sudden collapse. They may have been aiming for it, but they had also stopped for some time.
As such, no one expected it to happen so suddenly. Clearly, the inflicted damage was more than previously thought.
After Emperor Carpus's initial surprise, a goading smile soon hung on his smile.
"It seems you came in vain. The Pure Moon Palace has been crushed to death. There's no reason for you to intervene anymore," Emperor Carpus said smugly.
Ultimately, he did not want to fight the UN if he could avoid it.
After all, even if he could borrow the power of the Gold-horned Mutant Serpent to kill Astoria and all the red dragons present, their deaths would hardly affect the power of the UN.
So long as its prophecized overlord was alive, the UN's position would remain strong, even if all its experts died.
The prophecized overlord was simply too strong.
Nevertheless, Astoria and the red dragons remained unfazed by the sudden collapse of the mountain peak. Even the situation within the collapsed cave had been made known to them.
While Vaan had arrived quietly without notice, he was still the supreme leader and dragon god of the Red Dragon God.
Kemun and the other red dragons were made aware of his presence when he used his powers to hold the collapsing cave before dropping it. They could also guess where the Pure Moon Palace's people had disappeared off to.
Only Astoria would have remained ignorant had Kemun not informed her with a silent voice transmission.
Knowing Vaan's presence was in the vicinity, much of the weight on Astoria's heart was released.
Vaan had disappeared for two weeks without a warning.
If not for the news coming from Gehenna's side, everyone would have thought he had suffered a mishap. The faith in the UN would have also collapsed overnight.
Nevertheless, everyone's courage was boosted after learning Vaan was in the vicinity. The enormous Gold-horned Mutant Serpent also did not look as intimidating; it even seemed cute.
Astoria felt a little amused when she looked at Emperor Carpus's ignorant smugness.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
"Go and hunt down the remaining survivors of the Pure Moon Palace! There's no further reason to stay here!" Emperor Carpus confidently hollered at the forces of the Martial Saint Hall, Medicine King Sect, and Heavenly Sword Manor.
"Stop them!" Kemun roared.
The Transcendent-rank dragons immediately rushed out to intercept the departing Void realm experts of the three major forces and their subordinates.
However, the enormous Gold-horned Mutant Serpent was like an unsurpassable wall. It stood tall and firm, disdainfully gazing down on the smaller red dragons flying in its direction.
Hiss~!
"Do you think this Lord is just a statue or something?!" the Gold-horned Mutant Serpent snarled with contempt.
In the next moment, a seemingly unstoppable force suddenly rushed at the Transcendent- rank dragons as the Gold-horned Mutant Serpent flicked its huge tail at them like it was trying to swat away flies.
However, Kemun immediately greeted the tail sweep with a powerful dragon breath. Boom!
The Gold-horned Mutant Serpent's tail sweep immediately paused in its tracks after colliding with Kemun's big fire breath. The mighty clash between Demigod-level strengths instantly generated a powerful outburst of wind.
Snow, humans, and dragons alike were all swept away by the blast.
However, the Gold-horned Mutant Serpent's tail sweep continued to clash with Kemun's beam-like fire breath, which targeted its very tip.
The Gold-horned Mutant Serpent was forced to exert more strength before overwhelming Kemun's fire breath. At the same time, it redirected its tail sweep at Kemun after being angered by his interference.
"Die, lizard trash!" the Gold-horned Mutant Serpent cursed.
Kemun's stern expression crumpled as he realized he couldn't overpower the tail sweep. He was ultimately a minor stage lower than the serpent. As such, he forcefully parried the attack with his draconic body instead.
Even so, the remaining force still sent him crashing into another mountain peak in the distance!
However, the Gold-horned Mutant Serpent also knew such an impact wasn't enough to kill Kemun. The gold horn on its head quickly lit up with golden light as it gathered solar power. Bzzt...!
The Gold-horned Mutant Serpent immediately fired its scorching-hot solar beam after a short charge. It was a lightning-fast attack that left a small window of time to react.
Kemun had not emerged from the cloud of floating snow on the other mountain peak at all before the solar beam struck his supposed location.
The intense heat from the solar beam instantly melted the snow and punched a hole right through the mountain.
Emperor Carpus didn't think Kemun could survive such an attack. Thus, he stared mockingly at Astoria, who was on her own.
"Your backer is gone. Do you still insist on interfering with my..."
Emperor Carpus didn't finish his words when he noticed Kemun emerging from a newly formed spatial rift.
Although Kemun survived the fast attack, he wasn't completely unscathed. The solar beam had scorched part of his left side before he escaped.
Nevertheless, no one paid any attention to Emperor Carpus. Kemun and Astoria's attention wholly focused on the Gold-horned Mutant Serpent with grave expressions.
"Be careful, Lord Kemun. This mutant serpent has the Golden Dragon Bloodline," Astoria
warned.
Kemun had already sensed the Gold-horned Mutant Serpent's faint draconic aura before and found it a little suspicious.
However, he never expected it to be the Golden Dragon Bloodline, which was superior to his own dragon bloodline. After all, the mutant serpent wasn't a descendant of true dragons. It must have obtained its Golden Dragon Bloodline from elsewhere.
"You're well-informed, Human. You actually recognize this Lord's Golden Dragon Bloodline," the Gold-horned Mutant Serpent said to Astoria, not putting Kemun in its eyes.
After Kemun suffered from the solar beam attack, he lost ten percent of battle power. He wasn't its opponent then, and he definitely wouldn't be its opponent now.
Kemun felt a little depressed.
Meanwhile, Astoria still maintained her calmness despite the clear difference in their power.
"I don't just recognize it; I also have it!"
Shortly after Astoria said that, she immediately exerted her golden dragon aura and tried to suppress the Gold-horned Mutant Serpent with her awakened bloodline.
