Karian Adventurer Guild, Guild Master Office

Guild Master Gortham was not supposed to stay this long in this Ancient Rank Dimensional Tower. But he had to stay after what happened with Ying, and he had been waiting to hear if there was any news from the people he sent out.

It was true that it was his greed that turned the situation into this, so he had to solve the issue too. If Ying came back and started to hunt the adventurers, he would have to resolve the issue and kill Ying. If nothing happened within a month, he would leave the tower. It had been four days since Ying escaped right in front of his face, and he had not heard any news yet about him.

“I wish nothing happened to him or my people,” Gortham muttered in a low voice, but then his door was slammed open. A figure entered the room in a rush. “We have news regarding Ying, Guild Master!” As if God did not side with him, he immediately heard the name he did not want to hear.

Eril rushed next to Guild Master Gortham, elaborating on the report she received from Roman.

Guild Master Gortham massaged the space between his eyes. “Tell Roman to get back. Let the Mistovel Family fight Ying or whatever, but the adventurers should not get involved anymore with Ying.”

Eril nodded and sent the message immediately. She did not receive a reply after a while, and she sent another message. However, there was no reply after she sent several messages in a few minutes. “It seems Roman is in the middle of the fight. He does not reply to my message, Guild Master.”

Guild Master Gortham let out a sigh and stood up. “I will go myself and check the situation.” He stopped at the door and turned back to Eril, “Tell everyone not to take any quests related to Ying. The guild forbids them to the quest; if they don’t listen to it, they will be expelled from the guild.”

The old man left the building, heading toward the Epic Rank Garden.

The fight lasted less than twenty minutes, and it was a one-sided battle where one person beat a group of six people. Roman’s body was covered in blood, lying flat on the ground. Lulu was unconscious, and Young Master Mistovel lost his four limbs, but he was still alive.

After witnessing Tang Shaoyang killing three Primordial Ranks, no one from the other factions tried to fight Tang Shaoyang. They just watched everything from the side silently, letting Tang Shaoyang enter the Epic Rank Garden with the three unconscious people.

As Tang Shaoyang entered the Epic Rank Garden, he threw the three bodies aside and summoned the skeletons. “This will be your training ground for a while. Don’t forget to communicate with me once you are done with the monsters in this garden.”

The Skelly Family left with the skeleton army and their new siblings, leaving Tang Shaoyang alone with the three unconscious people. He approached the three, looking down at the three. “What am I supposed to do with you guys?”

Young Master Mistovel kept grunting in pain and was the first one to wake up between the three, “W-what are you going to do to me?”

“I don’t know, but I am not going to kill, so don’t worry about it.” Tang Shaoyang waved his hand and smiled. “I am still thinking about what I should do to you.” He squatted, squinting his eyes as he looked closer to Young Master Mistovel’s face.

“Hmmm….” Tang Shaoyang caressed his chin. “Can I extract his bloodline and give it to someone else? Is it possible?” The brilliant idea appeared in his mind, but he did not know if it was possible. The Mistovel Family was the dragon descendant, so they had a dragon bloodline for sure. He wanted to extract it if possible and gave the bloodline to someone else. The thought came into his mind after he recalled the bloodline inheritance ritual with the Ruby Dragon.

A genuine fear flashed on Young Master Mistovel’s face. He did not fear death, but he feared that what was most important in his life was taken. In his mind, his bloodline was the most important thing in his life. Because the moment he lost his bloodline, it was the same as dead. His family would cast him away, and he, with no bloodline, was just a lamb in this harsh world. He would rather get killed instead of going through such an ordeal.

“You have something to fear, heh?” Tang Shaoyang smiled, shaking his head. He then summoned Yu, the Ancient Alchemist. “Alright, stop talking in my head. I will let you out.”

The quiet Yu could not hide his joy the moment he was out of the Spirit World. He glanced at the three and asked, “Do you want me to heal them first? That bloody one might die if he does not get treated.” He was talking about Roman. “You crush his bone, and those bones pierce his vital organs.”

“Then heal him. If he has to die, he should not die in my hands. I get nothing from killing an Epic Rank.” Tang Shaoyang nodded.

“Who are you!?” Young Master Mistovel asked with his hoarse voice. His eyes moved between Tang Shaoyang and Yu. He was surprised to see Yu, and he could tell Yu was summoned by Tang Shaoyang. The guild told him about Ying’s class, but he knew that a summoner could not summon a human. No, the summoner was not supposed to have a human as familiar; it was just not possible.

Tang Shaoyang raised his right eyebrow and smiled, “You come for me, yet you don’t know me? Isn’t that funny?”

“You are not a summoner! And how could an Ancient Rank summoner defeat the Drake Squads and me!?” Young Master Mistovel’s eyes widened as he came to a realization. “This is that old man’s trap to weaken us, the Mistovel Family!”

“Your imagination is quite wild, and you are wrong. Don’t try to twist things and put yourself as a victim.” Tang Shaoyang held the man’s head and raised him to the air. “If you can control your greed, do you think this will happen to you?” He came closer to Young Master Mistovel’s ear and whispered. “I told you before, didn’t I? You should not covet someone else’s things.”

Young Master Mistovel let out a chuckle. “I will also tell you something. All dragons in the world belong to the Mistovel Family, and that means your dragon belongs to the Mistovel Family. I don’t covet your things, but we are taking what is supposed to belong to the Mistovel Family!”

“Also, another thing, you suppose not to touch the Mistovel Family, especially her.” Her in his mouth was, of course, Lulu. “Her brother will come for you, and I can imagine that you will suffer an eternal hell if you are caught by him!” Young Master Mistovel grinned when he mentioned the last part.

Tang Shaoyang burst out in laughter once more. He laughed for a while, “Your joke is up to my taste, but aren’t you also her big brother?”

“I am also her half-brother, but I am talking about her real brother who came from the same womb as hers! That bastard has the purest dragon bloodline in his body, and he is the strongest of the Mistovel Family’s young generation, and he loves her little sister more than anyone.” Young Master Mistovel has the widest grin despite the pain he experienced. “Have I told you his rank? He just reached Demi-God Rank a few weeks ago, and once the news of this bitch is caught spreads. That man will hunt you even if you hide in hell.”

Tang Shaoyang maintained his smile despite the threat. He was not afraid of the Demi-God Rank, and in fact, he was interested in Lulu’s brother. He wanted to try his full power against someone who had just reached Demi-God Rank. The Primordial Rank was not a threat anymore for him. He thought of looking for Legend Rank, but it was not that easy to find Legend Rank.𝞸𝗏𝐞𝔩xt.𝔠𝗈𝐌

“Thank you for your information. I should let her alive then, so I can lure that madman to me,” Tang Shaoyang winked his right eye at Young Master Mistovel. “But isn’t your family quite outrageous to claim that all dragons belong to your family? I am tempted to show something that you might never see in your life.”

Let me out! I want to beat the ** out of this bastard! Avyn was angry in Tang Shaoyang’s head, cursing Young Master Mistovel repeatedly. I will wipe this Mistovel Family who dares to say something like that!

“I am done treating him, Master.” Yu was done with Roman and looked at Young Master Mistovel with pity. “Do you want me to stay for a while? Lady Avyn must want to beat the ** out of this impudent bastard.” It seemed Yu was also aware that Avyn was mad.

“What should I do? You anger someone you should not.” Tang Shaoyang winked his eye at Young Master Mistovel once more. “You can scare and torture him, but don’t kill him.”

He granted Avyn’s wish, summoning her out of her world. Avyn did not appear in his humanoid figure but in her original form.

The towering dragon suddenly appeared before him. It shocked Young Master Mistovel. The smile froze as he sensed the murderous intent and also the dragon aura directed toward him. He never felt such an aura before in his life; not even his father or his grandfather had this kind of aura. He was so scared that he pissed himself.
