Nine Star Hegemon Body Art

No one had expected Gu Yang to step forward at this time. With the dragon bone spear firmly in his grasp, he strode onto the battlefield, completely ignoring the suffocating pressure from the black crow dragon race leader.

A six-vein Emperor from the black crow dragon race then tried to stop him, but Gu Yang appeared behind him in a flash—his speed astonishing.

Long Chen’s eyes brightened as he watched. This fellow’s strength had grown immensely. Most likely, the dragon soul in him had taught him quite a bit.

Seeing that the opponent was a half-step Dragon Emperor radiating immense pressure and overwhelming Blood Qi, Long Chen initially planned to intervene. However, Gu Yang’s bold demeanor and confident stride made him pause. Slowly, Long Chen relaxed his grip on Evilmoon, a small smile playing at the corner of his lips.

Noticing Long Chen’s silent approval, Gu Yang was delighted. Turning back to the black crow dragon race leader, he sneered, “Old fogey, you and your pathetic lizards are just dogs of the resonant dragon race, biting whoever they tell you to bite. You’ve tried to bite us, but we couldn’t be bothered to deal with you because we didn’t want to make a fuss while our boss wasn’t here. It’s not because we’re afraid of you. You've sent rabbits to challenge us at the white dragon race’s doorstep, and we've been enduring it. But now, you think you can challenge my boss? You really overestimate yourself.”

By the end, Gu Yang was practically gnashing his teeth. Long Chen noticed the anger in his tone, and looking at the faces of the Dragonblood warriors, he realized how much they had suffered in his absence.

The Dragonblood Legion had risked life and limb to escort the dragon race’s experts through the Endless Desolation, a feat that had shaken the entire Dragon Domain. Yet, their reception had been utterly disgraceful. The first response of these idiots was suspicion. They even conducted soulsearches on their fellow dragon race experts, treating them as potential threats.

Only then did these idiots grudgingly acknowledge their brethren. But when it came to the Dragonblood Legion, they flatly rejected them. Worse, they considered the fact that the Dragonblood warriors possessed dragon blood an insult to the dragon race and attempted to extract their dragon blood.

This wasn’t a simple request; it meant killing the Dragonblood warriors and draining their dragon blood. Such audacity was beyond infuriating, causing the Dragonblood Legion to seethe with rage.

They had already been pushed to the brink when the soulsearches were conducted on the experts they had risked everything to protect. These fuckers were practically viewing them all as beggars from the outside.

The Dragonblood Legion had slaughtered an uncountable number of devil creatures and stared death in the face countless times to bring these experts to safety. Yet, instead of gratitude, the other side wanted to extract their blood.

It was too much. The Dragonblood Legion was on the verge of drawing their weapons, ready to slaughter these fools. Even without Long Chen, they couldn’t tolerate such humiliation. They would rather fight to the death than submit to this disgrace.

Just as a battle was about to explode, the white dragon race rushed over and managed to pacify everyone. However, this immediately drew the displeasure of the other dragon races.

The normally peaceful white dragon race leader had taken a firm stand for the first time in years. He declared that if anyone dared to harm the Dragonblood Legion, the white dragon race would fight to the death to protect them.

This attitude stunned the other dragon races. The white dragon race had never bared their fangs at them, so they didn’t know what to do.

Taking advantage of their shock, the white dragon race leader brought the Dragonblood Legion back to their territory and immediately entered a defensive state, as if they were waiting for a powerful enemy to come knocking on their doors.

The white dragon race leader personally apologized to the Dragonblood warriors and guaranteed their safety if they just waited here for Long Chen’s return.

Seeing the white dragon race leader’s attitude, the warriors felt much better. But it wasn’t long before the other dragon races regrouped and started applying pressure on the white dragon race.

However, the white dragon race’s attitude was unyielding, their position crystal clear: if you want the Dragonblood Legion, you’ll have to get through us first—and over our dead bodies.

Seeing the white dragon race defending the Dragonblood Legion so stubbornly, the other dragon races didn’t know what to do.

Although the white dragon race wasn’t the strongest existence here, they were still one of the central pillars of the dragon race. Their pure sacred energy could assist other dragon races in cultivation and heal their wounds.

Hence, even with the Dragon Domain in chaos, no one dared to attack the white dragon race. No matter what, they shouldn’t be harmed.

Since the white dragon race refused to hand the Dragonblood warriors over, the opposing factions resorted to another tactic: cursing. They hurled every insult imaginable, focusing especially on the human race. They even dared to drag Long Chen’s name into their provocations.

The moment Long Chen’s name was sullied, the Dragonblood Legion erupted with fury. No amount of restraint or reasoning could hold them back. They charged out of the white dragon race’s camp and mercilessly cut down hundreds of dragon disciples spewing insults.

For the Dragonblood Legion to charge out was, unfortunately, to fall right into the enemy’s trap. Countless dragon experts emerged in response, including race leaders, with the black crow dragon race leader at the forefront.

Just as the situation was about to spiral into chaos, the white dragon race mobilized their Ten Thousand Dragon Nests, crashing toward the opposing factions as if to annihilate them all in one fell swoop. The sheer force of the attack sent their enemies fleeing in panic.

When the Dragonblood Legion returned to the white dragon race’s camp, they could barely hold back their fury. They didn’t fear a battle, but they couldn’t accept this kind of humiliation.

After that, Gu Yang suggested leaving the Dragon Domain. This place, in his eyes, was far too disappointing and unworthy of their effort. The rest of the Dragonblood warriors agreed, but Yue Zifeng’s calm voice cut through the tension, urging them to reconsider. He gave two reasons for staying.

First, their boss, Long Chen, had yet to return. Such a significant decision should not be made without him, as it carried major implications.

Second, they were now bound to the dragon race through their shared bloodline and had benefited from the dragon race’s favor. If the Dragon Domain was in chaos, it was only right for them to do their part to fix it.

At the very least, if they didn’t have the ability to turn chaos into order, they shouldn’t add oil to the fire.

Yue Zifeng’s words instantly calmed everyone down, and they felt like he was correct. As they possessed dragon blood, they could be considered half members of the dragon race. To leave now would be to shirk their responsibility during the dragon race’s time of need.

Thanks to Yue Zifeng’s reasoning, the Dragonblood Legion chose to stay. Moved by their resolve, the white dragon race leader created a secret sanctuary for them, one fortified against the outside world’s venomous curses.

Within this protected space, the Dragonblood Legion entered seclusion. They focused on cultivating their dragon blood and strengthening their connection with their dragon souls. With the white dragon race’s guidance, their dragon souls underwent a profound second awakening.

Due to their connection with the Dragon Domain, their dragon souls started to share ancient knowledge, passing down innate divine abilities and teaching them how to activate their ancestral runes. As a result, the power of the Dragonblood warriors surged, their strength growing by leaps and bounds.

Now, with Long Chen finally back, their suppressed fury was unleashed in full force. Stepping forward without hesitation, Gu Yang pointed his dragon bone spear directly at the black crow dragon race leader.

“Old fogey, take out your weapon!” he roared, his voice echoing with battle intent.
