The Chaos Dragon Prince

Lan Kui took the lead in the group. She swiftly soared through the air, everyone else following close behind her. 

Their speed was practically at light, thus it did not take long to near a glorious sight in the horizons. 

A gargantuan city, radiant in this dazzling black flow of light entered Cain's group vision. For a place known for heinous criminals, the standard here was completely comparable to any divine city across the Heavens. 

The shimmering Dao runes exuded waves of sensation to enlightened mortals, the unfathomable cultivators flying in and out of the city, everything served to make Basilisk City a haven for even Holy King's level of talent. 

Lan Kui serenely leads the group close to the city. But as they flew, all of them curled their brows, their divine senses detecting massive waves of auras breeze over them. 

Lan Kui's group all tightened their brows, a slight strain expression dwindling on their faces once they realized just who these auras belonged to. 

While Cain, Kali, and Luo Na felt a pang of intrigue. Three of the auras belong to Peak Stage Primal Sovereigns with talents rivaling that of King Grandmasters. 

But the center aura, the presence dominating the world, exuding a crushing momentum no inferior being can possibly stand up to stole the center stage. 

This person actually managed to reach Half-Step Heavenly Venerate! 

His Dao principles faintly reached the boundaries of the universe, it would be long before this person could transcend his Dao Tribulation, becoming an existence equal to the entire universe itself. 

Perhaps the trio would have an interest in this kind of Dao principles before everything was thrown into chaos. 

But now that they fully faced, and even suppressed an Early Stage Heavenly Venerate existence, this was barely worth mentioning, Kali merely saw this as an amusing distraction. 

"Martial sister Lan! Already back and with some guests?" 

A booming voice swept throughout the entire world. Dazzling lights of Dao sources gleamed across the skies. 

The dazzling lights stopped right over Lan Kui's group, making everyone in Lan Kui's group roll their eyes at the overly grand gesture. 

Four genius existences came out from the dazzling lights, each of them exuding a suffocating aura to stop the breaths of any Early Stage Primal Sovereigns. 

The divine man at the center, the half-step Heavenly Venerate genius, held a profound gaze that no lower living being could resist. His divine gaze settled on Cain's group for a moment, hoping to see them tense up. 

It would make sense since only two were mere Holy Kings and one was seemingly an Early Stage Primal Sovereign, cultivators that would have some notoriety in some small backwater village and certainly not people the divine man wanted close to his city. 

Many would tremble beneath this genius gaze. But Cain's group only stayed completely calm, seemingly not registering the man's gaze in the slightest. 

The half-step Heavenly Venerate genius slightly curled his brows, then tossed his gaze onto Lan Kui to say, "Outsiders? And one with considerably low realms? Marital Sister Lan, I do hope you have them under control. I am not sensing that from any of them. And I do not need to remind you of ways we all could be easily tricked without even knowing how." 

His words were crass, but there was genuine concern and caution in his tone. A genius in his realm heavily values his life. Even just small details like weak random cultivators were a cause of suspicion when they know that Great Marvel City are continually breathing down their necks. 

"Martial brother Jiang, calm down. These three are-" 

Lan Kui couldn't finish her sentence when Cain causally interrupted them without a care in the world. 

"A half-step Heavenly Venerate genius is sure to have connections. Let's get this over with." Cain bluntly said, the whole song and dance of this kind of talks grows weary on him at times. 

"You. What are you trying to do?" Martial Brother Jiang coldly spat out. 

His faint Venerate Dao principles rippled, generating a powerful Dao atmosphere where everything became frozen. 

The lower Primal Sovereign geniuses, even Lan Kui nearly lost their breath, the pressure weighing down on their chests heavier than world-crushing divine mountains. 

In response, Cain, unaffected by the atmosphere of a half-step Heavenly Venerate, glistens his fingers in trickling arcs of heaven-shattering lightning. 

He snapped his thunder fingers, unleashing a thunderous boom that shattered the entire Dao atmosphere! 

'Chi!' 

The half-step Heavenly Venerate Dao principles were vaporized into tiny light particles. 

Four trails of divine lightning arcs tear through space at light speed, instantly arriving upon Martial Brother Jiang and the other Peak Primal Sovereigns! 

"What?!" 

Not just Martial Brother Jiang's group, but even Lan Kui's group was taken aback. 

Those arcs of divine lightning exuded waves of law power none of them could resist. All Primal Sovereigns genuinely could not move. Their entire beings were suppressed beneath Cain's rippling divine law principles. 

"Ah!" The Peak Primal Sovereigns shrieked in horror, the divine lightning arcs shattering all of their innate Dao Defenses and then coiling around their necks with a mountain-crushing grip. 

"No!" Martial Brother Jiang completely shreds any noble bearing of a Half-Step Heavenly Venerate genius. 

He roared to the heavens, instantly overexerting his Inner World to spew divine lightning wings from his back. Brilliant flashes of sparkling crystals dazzled all across the divine lightning wings. 

He turned into an immortal ruler ready to crush the world just with the appearance of those crystal divine lightning wings.

Only he could move in a fraction of a second, swiveling around in an attempt to leave at sheer light speeds. 

But Martial Brother Jiang only got the chance to shift his body around. 

At the exact same moment, the divine lightning arc brilliantly gleamed, shooting at a superior force than what Martial Brother Jiang could ever hope to match. 

"Ah!" Martial Brother Jiang unleashed a horrified screech, the divine lightning arcs shattering his faint Venerate Dao principles into utter pieces!

All of his faint lightning Venerate Dao principles meant nothing. His Saint Art of divine crystals were useless. Everything continually shattered into tiny light particles. 

He could barely breathe when the divine lightning arc blasting out waves of Cain's law principles nearly crushed his neck as it brutally coiled around it and completely suppressed his entire being. 

Cain then pulled his finger back, like he was calling back dogs. 

The four geniuses were forcefully pulled through the air, all majestic presence crushed as their bodies landed right before Cain. 

"Yo-" Any words Martial Brother Jiang wanted to say died in his throat. 

They all were covered by a mask, but that made Cain and the others all the more fearful.

People with completely unknown identity genuinely has the power to instantly crush anyone beneath the Heavenly Venerate realm, what was more terrifying than that? 

"This never stops being amusing." Kali lightly giggled. Her angelic voice mixed with that cold tone caused shivers to sweep through the Basilisk cultivators.

"Now then, quickly tell us what you can offer us, and you can probably be spared from a miserable fate." Cain recalled his divine lightning arcs from the geniuses' necks. 

The Primal Sovereigns nearly fell out of the skies, all of them shivering on their knees, not daring to look up at Cain. 

"Ah!" Martial Brother Jiang in direct contrast shot straight back up. Fear took hold of his divine face as he began to quickly talk. "Don't kill me! I come from the Jiang Family line on the Venerate council, not at all inferior to Lan Kui. And my parents are also on the same level as Lan Kui. If you want to get into our city, I can easily help you with anything!" 

The desperation in his tone couldn't be fake. The fear in his eyes was anything but a performance. This Half-Step Heavenly Venerate genius couldn't even try to cover his uncourageous nature. 

"Haah...Jiang Lee...just how the hell did you make it far above me..." Lan Kui nearly wanted to palm her face at Jiang Lee's unsightly performance. 

She thought that she had at least tried to maintain some kind of calm when faced with Kali. This was just an embarrassment to all divine cultivators, her group and even those in Jiang Lee's group also couldn't deny they felt the same as Lan Kui. 

Cain, Kali, and Luo Na didn't care about how unsightly this Jiang Lee was. They shared a glance with each other before coming to a silent agreement. 

Without speaking, Cain waved his hand, spewing a wave of irresistible essence energy straight toward Lan Kui and Jiang Lee's mouths. 

"Ah?!" Lan Kui and Jiang Lee's mouths were forced open, the power from even Cain's causal use of essence energy was just too much for them to resist. 

Cain then flicked out two divine pills gleaming an ominous, purple glow, forcing these pills straight down Lan Kui and Jiang Lee's thoughts. 

These purple glowing pills soared straight through their bodies, swiftly fusing deep into their hearts. 

The process was done in an instant. 

"You-you..." Lan Kui and Jiang Lan staggered back, horror and confusion rippling through them. 

Cain simply spoke in a calm, casual tone at his confused victims. "Relax. I simply fed you two a pill that will instantly destroy your heart or cause tremendous pain if I simply think about doing it. It's just a bit of assurance for my group when we do go meet your parents. How can we be sure to trust Heavenly Venerates with their own goals and agendas? Your city seems to particularly dislike outsiders or really anything that could be related to that Marvel City. It would be troublesome if they were to try something."
