Hell Emperor.

Chapter 247 Xia Wei - Confrontation
"what are they doing?"

Seeing everyone bowing to Meng Junyao, Xia Wei frowned slightly, with a hint of confusion between her brows, not understanding what this meant.

Shen Qingge's expression was calm, and there was a hint of deep thought in his cold eyes: "Meng Junyao's strength alone is not enough to make them worship her. Rather than saying that they are worshipping Meng Junyao, it is better to say that they are worshipping the dragon..."

Meng Junyao blinked curiously and shook her head, "A divine dragon? I'm not a divine dragon, I'm a water dragon!"

Li Fei'e spoke up at this time: "For mortals, whether it is the divine dragon in the sky or the water dragon in the pond, they are all powerful real dragons. Why would they make such a careful distinction? As long as they are dragons, they are worthy of sincere worship. However, their pious appearance is really unexpected. Logically speaking, no matter how much they respect the divine dragon, they can't cry bitterly..."

Many hunters lowered their heads and cried after seeing the dragon. Their weathered faces were covered with tears, like people who had suffered a lot and finally waited for the moment of redemption. Li Fei'e was surprised and didn't understand what was going on.

It was Shen Qingge, who had a keen eye, who discovered the problem: "They said that the dragon came to save them, which is a bit strange... According to legend, the dragon is invisible from head to tail, so how could it come to save these unrelated humans?"

Shen Qingge's words made everyone even more confused. Just as everyone was discussing quietly, the hunter leader took the initiative to speak:
"Honorable Shenlong, we have been waiting for you for too long. You appear here to save us from suffering! Please follow me to meet the commander-in-chief of the Yellow Dragon Army, fulfill the prophecy, and take back everything that belongs to us!"

Everyone looked at each other, and Shen Qingge spoke up: "I think you may have recognized the wrong person. We are just travelers passing through here, not the person you expected."

The hunter leader was immediately anxious: "How could this be? The prophecy clearly said that one day, when the dragon returns from Jambu Continent, we, the displaced people, will be able to escape from the sea of ​​suffering and gain eternal happiness. You are so powerful, you must be the one mentioned in the prophecy!"

After hearing what the hunter said, even Xia Wei frowned deeply. She pulled everyone over and asked in a low voice: "What's going on? Could it be that they want to stop us? If they dare to stop us, I will make them pay the price!"

Shen Qingge quickly pulled her back and persuaded her, "The prophecies they are talking about are very confusing. In my opinion, we might as well go with them to meet the leader of the Huanglong Army. We also need to learn about Goguryeo from the Huanglong Army, so we can kill two birds with one stone."

Shen Qingge's decision made everyone nod their heads repeatedly. For them who were unfamiliar with the place, this was indeed a good way to get information.

As an object of worship, Meng Junyao looked at the kneeling hunters with curiosity. Seeing them crying bitterly, she did not feel any empathy and thought it was just a special performance.

After making the decision, everyone set out with the hunters to find the leader of the Yellow Dragon Army.

On the way, Xia Wei asked in confusion: "So... these hunters are not the evil spirits that Sister Xinyu calculated."

Li Fei'e spread his hands and said, "With their strength, even if all of them were added together, I'm afraid they wouldn't be able to withstand even one of your moves, so how can they be a disaster?"

Xia Wei remained alert, "Sister Xinyu's calculations have never been wrong. Since she calculated that the evil spirit is coming, even if it is not these people, it must be related to these people. Maybe the so-called Yellow Dragon Army is where the evil spirit is. We must not take it lightly."

Li Fei'e had experienced Xia Wei's alertness many times before, so he said helplessly, "Okay, I'll pay attention."

The group walked along the deserted path and soon arrived at a quiet valley.

Before they even got close, Xie Xinyu had a feeling in her heart, and her eyes sparkled as she said, "What is this location? From the perspective of Feng Shui, it can be said to be a treasure land!"

Xia Wei looked up, quite curious. She knew nothing about divination, but she could only tell from the lush greenery and vibrant scene outside the valley that this place was extraordinary: "Sister Xinyu, did you see anything?"

Xie Xinyu nodded repeatedly: "This mountain has extraordinary feng shui, and there is a bit of spiritual charm hidden in it. The spiritual power in the mountain is much stronger than other places. If you practice here, you only need to breathe in and out spiritual power for one day, and it will be equivalent to five days of practice normally."

The hunter leader introduced: "This is Wanglong Peak. It is said that it was chosen by the dragon god in the past as a place for prosperity. He planned to use the endless spiritual power in the mountain to build a magnificent city, but unfortunately he failed to do so. Today, Wanglong Peak has become the base of the Yellow Dragon Army, and the commander-in-chief is there."

Shen Qingge leaned down, with his white palms pressed against the ground, and soon he felt an unusual breath, his eyes narrowed: "That breath, could it be... Is there a real dragon lurking here?"

Hearing this, everyone was shocked.

Nan Linghe looked confused: "True dragon in hibernation, what does that mean?"

Hua Xiaomei was incredulous: "Master Shen, you mean there is a real dragon hidden in this mountain? How is this possible?"

Shen Qingge saw the confusion among the crowd and said in a solemn tone: "Everyone, I understand the confusion in your hearts. Even I felt a little incredible when I sensed that unusual breath, but it is indeed the breath of a dragon. Even if it is not a dragon, it is 80% similar to a dragon. This place is definitely not an ordinary place."

As if seeing everyone's suspicion, the hunter leader explained:

"There is a dragon vein under Wanglong Peak. What you feel is probably the breath of the dragon vein. The breath of the dragon vein is more effective than a panacea for monsters. Many monsters who want to turn into dragons will come here to explore the power of the dragon vein. Thanks to the protection of the Yellow Dragon Army, we were not harmed."

After a pause, the hunter leader continued, "Besides, if a real dragon appeared, the prophecy would have come true long ago. Why would it wait until now?"

Everyone was half-believing and half-doubting his words, but fortunately they didn't encounter anything unusual along the way. The guards on the way would bow respectfully once they saw Meng Junyao's figure, and let them pass smoothly after learning the purpose of their visit. After being allowed to pass all the way, everyone soon arrived in front of a spacious tent. Outside the tent, the leaders of the Yellow Dragon Army had been waiting here for a long time. After learning that the dragon was coming, the highly skilled Yellow Dragon generals showed a look of disappointment and lined up to welcome him.

At the front of the team, there was a man with an upright posture and a resolute face, as if he had been through the baptism of war. Just standing there, people felt an oppressive aura that was difficult to look directly at. His realm had even reached the level of the second level of immortal, which made people secretly astonished.

"Commander Zhang Long, they are the ones who brought the divine dragon. The prophecy will soon come true!" The hunter leader hurried forward and told Zhang Long the origins of Xia Wei and her group, as well as the purpose of their visit.

Zhang Long stared at everyone, his weathered face showing a look of scrutiny. After a while, he said, "You guys...really came from the Southern Continent, crossing the snow-capped mountains?"

"That's right." Xia Wei walked forward slowly and looked at him again. "We plan to pass through Goguryeo. I heard that it is not peaceful there. We want to know the intelligence there."

Zhang Long did not answer. In his eyes, Xia Wei's realm was far inferior to his. She had not even reached the immortal realm yet. Naturally, her words had no weight. He was not one of those hunters who would be easily frightened. He changed the subject and said,

"Everyone, you have come from afar. When you first heard the prophecy, you must be confused. Let me answer it for you."

After a pause, he spoke when everyone looked at him, "Speaking of which, we are also from Jambu Continent. Many years ago, we followed the Dragon Emperor and led his army here, intending to conquer the Eastern Kingdom. At that time, the mighty army was more than a million strong. Unfortunately, in the end, it failed. The Dragon Emperor hurried back to the court, and most of the million-strong army was killed or injured. Hundreds of thousands of people were unable to withdraw and were blocked by the icy Paektu Mountain that stretched for thousands of miles. We are still here today and will never be able to return to our homeland."

Upon hearing this, Xia Wei, Shen Qingge, Hua Xiaomei and the others all changed their expressions. Only Nan Linghe looked very interested, as if he was listening to some legend.

"Wait, the Divine Dragon Emperor he was talking about, could it be..." Xia Wei took a deep breath, and felt her past memories constantly emerging. She seemed to have guessed who the so-called Divine Dragon Emperor was.

Shen Qingge finally confirmed what he was thinking: "The Yellow Dragon Army...as expected. Yinglong is also known as the Yellow Dragon, and the Dragon Emperor they are talking about is the Palace Master of Guangwang, the Sui Emperor Yang Guang, who transformed himself into a dragon!"

Zhang Long's next words made everyone's pupils shrink slightly: "We have been standing here, fighting against the cruel and vicious demons, fighting desperately with the covetous Goguryeo people, and waiting for countless years, just to be saved by the Dragon Emperor one day. We all firmly believe in our hearts that the Emperor will never forget us, and he will never give up on us!"

At the end, Zhang Long looked at Meng Junyao, his eyes full of sincere emotion: "Now, the prophecy has come true. You are from the Southern Continent. The dragon has not abandoned us after all! The great dragon will definitely save us and get us out of this sea of ​​suffering!"

Facing Zhang Long's firm words, Xia Wei responded loudly: "Give up. The man you are talking about is not worthy of the title of divine dragon at all. He is the Lord of Yama Palace, but he disrupted yin and yang and committed many evil things. In the end, I killed him with my own hands. He has been the Lord of Yama Palace for so many years. Has he ever come to find you? He has forgotten you a long time ago and will never come to save you!"

"What?" Upon hearing this, Zhang Long's body trembled, his eyes were filled with deep horror, and there was a bit of disorientation after his faith collapsed.

As soon as these words came out, Shen Qingge knew that something bad was going to happen. Xia Wei was really talking nonsense. She had to speak ill of the Lord of Guangwang Palace in front of the Huanglong Army who had been holding on for many years and were still loyal. Couldn't she speak more tactfully?

For a moment, a hint of bitterness appeared on Shen Qingge's cold and flawless face. As smart as she was, she had no idea how the situation would end.

"This is impossible! You must be lying to us! How could the Dragon Emperor give up on us? He will definitely come to save us!" Zhang Long's aura was extremely unstable, his immortal energy was surging, and the monstrous energy waves that rolled out pushed everyone back dozens of steps away.

Everyone immediately became alert. The weaker ghosts, such as Nan Linghe and Hua Xiaomei, hid in the absolutely safe Qionglou Painting Scroll, not giving the enemy any chance to take advantage. However, Xia Wei did not retreat even half a step. Her eyes, as bright as blazing fire, stared directly at the mad Zhang Long and said angrily:

"I didn't lie to you! Why don't you believe me? You actually pinned your hopes on something that is impossible to achieve. How foolish!"

Zhang Long was furious: "What are you thinking? Why are you saying such things? The prophecy cannot be wrong, you must be lying! I will arrest you and interrogate you thoroughly!"

Xia Wei sneered, her eyes flashing with a fierce light: "Now I know what Sister Xinyu's deduction is about. It turns out that this is the evil spirit she mentioned! Since I killed the evil dragon, I have to eradicate the remaining evil roots as well. You all, go to hell!"

After saying that, Xia Wei took a deep breath, and purple light flowed in her pupils, like two slowly burning stars. Converged in the middle was an indestructible and extremely magical magic light!

"That kind of move... What is your relationship with those traitors!" Looking at Xia Wei with purple eyes, Zhang Long was shocked. Deep in his memory, those memories that he didn't want to be mentioned for a long time now came to him like a tide.

Many years ago, the most powerful martial art used by those rebels who disobeyed the will of the Dragon Emperor was a magical skill called the Purple Demon Pupil.

Now, seeing the power of the Purple Demon Pupil actually emerging on Xia Wei's body, the power was astonishing and there was no falsehood at all. This situation made Zhang Long furious.

Facing his enemy, Zhang Long certainly would not be polite to him, and he immediately said: "So what if it's a demon pupil? I'll let you have a taste of the power of the immortal's Dharma body!"

After saying that, golden light filled Zhang Long's body, as if he was covered with a layer of golden coat. Under the golden light, Zhang Long's power was even more extraordinary. From a distance, he looked like a golden-armored god soldier descended from heaven.

As Zhang Long finished his words, his body expanded uncontrollably, becoming taller and taller. In a blink of an eye, he was ten feet tall. The earth could not bear his weight. He was like a giant that reached the sky and the earth, blocking everyone's way.

After witnessing the power of his immortal body and his overwhelming aura, everyone could not help but change color. The ability to display his magnificent body was truly a powerful means of an immortal.

Xia Wei was not afraid of this at all. She had even killed the dragon in the sky with one hand. She had seen all kinds of enemies, so how could she be afraid of the enemy in front of her? Two extremely hot magic lights shot out from her pupils, ready to kill the enemy!
