eyes flickering with a strange light.Fighting off dozens of thugs and escaping unharmed... Was that man really just a middle school student……Naturally, Fang Yu was unaware of the tremors in Jianghai...Ye Shengxue stared blankly at the figure in front of her.

Fang Yu casually threw the broken curved sword. The curved sword fell to the ground and turned into wisps of black air.

Ye Shenglong, with bloodshot eyes, roared and charged towards Fang Yu.

His speed was incredibly swift, arriving before Fang Yu in the blink of an eye. He clenched his hand into a claw and lunged towards Fang Yu's left chest, aiming for his heart.

Fang Yu easily grabbed Ye Shenglong's hand and twisted it outward.

"Click!"

A sharp cracking sound echoed, and Ye Shenglong's right hand instantly shattered.

But Ye Shenglong seemed to feel no pain, roaring again as he thrust out his left hand.

Fang Yu's right palm slashed at Ye Shenglong's left arm.

""

Yè Shènglóng's left arm broke at the elbow and flew off.

In just a few seconds, Ye Shenglong's left and right hands were crippled by Fang Yu.

But Ye Shenglong was still menacing, his expression ferocious and wild like a beast.

"He's no longer alive," Fang Yu said, her brow furrowed as she looked at Ye Shenglong.

"Aw..."

Ye Shenglong struck again, hammering his head forward with force.

Fang Yu took a step back, effortlessly dodging the attack, and then kicked Ye Shenglong's left kneecap with his foot.

"Bang!"

Another chilling crack of bone echoed.

Ye Shenglong's left leg was broken, and he could no longer maintain his balance. He knelt on one knee on the ground.

"Brother..." Witnessing Ye Shenglong's tragic state, Ye Shengxue's tears flowed uncontrollably.

If it wasn't for protecting her, how would Ye Shenglong have become like this

In the distance, Ye Zhennan also wore a look of grief.

"To be precise, he is no longer your brother." Fang Yu turned to look at Ye Shengxue and said.

Seizing this opportunity, Ye Shenglong, who had lost his three limbs, suddenly had a bright red glow in his eyes!

He opened his mouth, and a powerful energy ball condensed within it!

Ye Shengxue noticed this scene, her face changed drastically, and she shouted: "Be careful..."

"Bang!"

Ye Shengxue's words hadn't even finished when Fang Yu slapped him on the back without looking back.

This slap landed squarely on Ye Shenglong's face.

Ye Shenglong's energy ball, before it could be released, exploded with a deafening roar right where he stood!

"Boom!"

Fang Yu stood on the spot, holding Ye Shengxue with one hand, allowing the blast wave to push him back ten meters.

But those other people nearby weren't so lucky. They were hit by the powerful waves and thrown around, screaming in pain.

After nearly a minute, the dust on the ground gradually dissipated.

Ye Shenglong's location had been blasted into a crater.

And Ye Shenglong's body was nowhere to be seen, obviously blown to smithereens.

Those still present stood there, staring blankly at the crater ahead and then around at the devastation that surrounded them.

Many people lay on the ground, covered in blood and flesh, with many dying in horrific and gruesome ways.

Looking at the corpses of these people, the Ye family members who survived couldn't help but have red eyes, and many even covered their faces and wept.

Their Ye family has a history of over a thousand years, and they have been cursed for over a thousand years as well. That's tragic enough!

But heaven has not spared them yet!

"Why..." The Ye family members could no longer bear it and knelt on the ground, weeping bitterly.

Those who died today are all their closest relatives, blood-related family members!

In just a few dozen minutes, they were reduced to lifeless corpses, some of them even beyond recognition.

No one could accept this outcome.

The master, Ye Zhennan, stared blankly at the crater left by the explosion, his whole body frozen.

He still couldn't believe it, his son, the future head of the Ye family, Ye Shenglong, was dead.

No body was found!

Ye Zhennan knelt on the ground, his eyes bloodshot and vacant.

"Brother..." Ye Shengxue's face was pale, her whole body trembled, and tears streamed down her face.

After today, the person in the world who loved her the most disappeared.

Her older brother, Ye Shenglong, will never come back.

Thinking of Ye Shenglong's last stand for her, Ye Shengxue became even more heartbroken, weeping uncontrollably.

On the side, Fang Yu did not seem to want to come forward and comfort him.

He thought for a moment, his figure flickering as he darted back within the temple compound.

At this time, the ancestral hall has become a ruin.

And in the middle of the ruins, there was a deep chasm.

This is the crack that Fang Yu cut out using the Heavenly Sword.

Fang Yu came to the top of the fissure and peered down, but he couldn't see the corpse of the swallowing dragon.

"Strange, could it have vanished into thin air With that single sword strike, it shouldn't have disappeared, right" Fang Yu scratched his head and jumped into the crack.

This fissure was at least seventy or eighty meters deep.

Fang Yu came to the deepest part of the crack, but still saw no remains.

The massive dragon, just vanished without a trace.

This made Fang Yu very unhappy.

He had originally planned to bring the corpse of the Dragon Eater back to study it.

After all, it is an extremely rare type of dragon. Every part of its body is incredibly valuable.

But it seems that this idea has been dashed.

Fang Yu stood on the cracked ground, looking around with a slightly furrowed brow.

He felt something was wrong.

It's not just about the missing Sweltering Dragon corpse.

but the whole fight against the dragon!

It seems... a bit too easy

A dragon, though not a divine dragon, is still a creature that has lived for thousands, even tens of thousands of years!

Although Fang Yu wasn't sure how the Devouring Dragon compared to the Divine Dragon in terms of strength, he could be certain that any creature able to survive for such a long time was no pushover and definitely not easy to deal with.

Just like himself.

Under this concept, the strength of Swallow Dragon couldn't possibly be only this much! Its size couldn't possibly be this small either!

The legendary dragon is said to be over a thousand meters long!

Even if the Devouring Dragon is not as powerful as a Divine Dragon, living for tens of thousands of years, having a body three or four hundred meters long is normal, right

The swallowed dragon we just fought was only thirty or forty meters long. It's a far cry from the legendary dragons!

Fang Yu even felt that this swallowing dragon was not as good as the giant python wolf he encountered in Zhuixian Valley!

Too weak.

If we were to evaluate this dragon-swallowing beast using the cultivation realms of cultivators, its strength would not exceed the Nascent Soul Stage!

"That's right... I thought about it before. There are probably more than one families like the Ye family, called "Divine Dragon Guardians." There must be several bases for the Swallowing Dragons similar to the Ye family... That means there could be another Swallowing Dragon in those aristocratic families..."

After a moment of thought, Fang Yu was almost certain that the Devouring Dragon he had just eliminated was definitely not the main body!

It's possible this is just a remnant left behind by the Swallowing Dragon—a phantom!

The true body of the dragon must still exist somewhere in the world!

After figuring this out, Fang Yu not only wasn't discouraged, but instead a look of excitement appeared on his face.

For him, the greatest enemy in life is loneliness.

Now, knowing that creatures from his own time, and even earlier ones, still existed in the world, filled him with a sense of kinship.

"No matter what, even if it was just a clone of the dragon-swallowing one, it's still slaying a dragon." Fang Yu smiled and rose to fly upwards, "In the future, if I truly encounter that old man, I can boast that I am a dragon slayer..."

……

Ye Shengxue slowly walked toward the place where Ye Shenglong died, which had now become a pit half a meter deep.

"Brother..."

Yè Shèngxuě could no longer hold back her tears. She sat on the ground, hugging her knees, and burst into sobs.

At this moment, Ye Zhennan, who had been standing still, suddenly raised his head. His bloodshot eyes were fixed on Ye Shengxue, a terrifying glint flashing within them.

"Aren't you ashamed to cry!" Ye Zhennan stood up and walked towards Ye Shengxue.

Ye Shengxue trembled all over and looked up at Ye Zhennan.

Ye Zhannan, clutching his severed right arm where it had been cut by Ye Shenglong, spoke in a hoarse voice: "If you hadn't brought Fang Yu home, our Ye family wouldn't have suffered such a catastrophe!"

Hearing this, Ye Shengxue trembled all over. She looked at her father walking towards her, unable to speak.

She had never seen Ye Zhennan look at her with such eyes, even a hint of murderous intent.

"Do you know how many people died today! These are your relatives!"

"And, Lord Long disappeared...the curse on our Ye family bloodline can never be broken again!"

"From now on, our Ye family is completely lost! This is all your fault, because of that damned Fang Yu!"

Ye Zhennan walked up to Ye Shengxue and glared at his own daughter with the eyes of an enemy.e point in time.If she could, she wouldn't even want to leave Nánlùtiān's side again. She didn't want to return to the Central Imperial Court; she just wanted to wander with Nánlùtiān like this.Nanlu...
