Online Game: Evil Dragon Against The Heaven - 207
Boom!
A secluded green hill split in the middle, its sand and stones scattering like locusts passing through, engulfing the air with a cloud of dust. From within, a man with a commanding presence, blue hair, and wolf-like eyes slowly emerged.
Step by step… He stopped there, his gaze firmly fixed on the figure in front of him. The tremendous pressure from their auras pressed the swirling dust rapidly to the ground.
“Hehe, you found me again, big brother. Your nose might even be sharper than a wolf’s” the figure in front of the blue-haired man teased.
Before him stood a girl radiating an ethereal amethyst light.
Her petite and exquisite figure was adorned with naturally flowing purple hair that reached her lower back. However, this wasn’t just any purple; it emitted a bewitching glow. She wasn’t wearing real clothes but was dressed in… an amethyst crystal outfit.
Her delicate, snow-white hands and slender, jade-like fingers were clasped with purple crystal bangles that resembled broad bracelets. Her arms, bare and slender, were accentuated by the purple crystal covering her upper body, which outlined her delicate figure through its sheer material.
She stood on dainty amethyst crystal shoes, with her ankles similarly encircled by purple crystals. Above, her long, straight legs were partially covered by the same amethyst crystal attire.
A purple mask covered the upper half of her face, hiding her eyes and only revealing her milky complexion and moist lips, curved into a teasing, playful smile.
She was like a girl carved out of amethyst, surrounded by a splendid purple aura that was dazzling to behold if stared at too long.
Shh!
The blue-haired man’s expression remained impassive, devoid of emotion, as his hand slowly rose… Amidst a terrifying sound of tearing, dark thunderbolts with an immense oppressive force struck down from the sky, hitting the palm of his right hand, where a pitch-black dagger materialized.
With a mysterious smile, the Amethyst Girl asked, “Big brother, are you going to kill me?”
“I won’t kill you, nor can I… but you must return to where you belong” he replied, lifting the black dagger in his hand, its tip wrapped in dark thunderbolts, pointing directly at her.
“Tehe, but I never want to go back there. What should we do about that, big brother?”
Clang!
The girl’s hands erupted with purple light, and in an instant, she wielded a pair of gleaming purple light swords, each half a meter long, shining brightly. Their emergence carried a fearsome tearing force, displacing the air around them, visibly distorting and swirling.
Without a word, the blue-haired man’s cold, unyielding expression was his response.
“Big brother, we must have never met before, right? Why do you chase me wherever I go?” Although she summoned her weapons, the Amethyst Girl’s voice still carried a playful tone and a softness that could melt bones, seemingly not taking the formidable man before her seriously, with no sense of impending danger.
The blue-haired man took a step forward, his eyes half-closed, emitting a blade-like glint from the slits: “I bear no grudge against you, but for someone else’s sake, I must defeat you… It is one of the few reasons I am still alive.”
The purple crystal girl’s expression briefly showed confusion, then she laughed playfully again and said, “Big brother, you’re such a strange person… Big brother, you’re really strong, the strongest person I’ve ever seen. But, you can’t defeat me. I’ve been avoiding you—not because I fear you, but because when I fight, my power might attract some people I don’t want to meet. However, if you keep chasing me, I’ll get angry.”
“I can’t defeat you, that’s true… He can’t defeat you either. No human could possibly beat you… But what if I fight you with my partner!?”
As the blue-haired man finished speaking, a circle of bright blue light exploded around him, revealing the majestic figure of a giant wolf. Its glowing blue eyes instantly locked onto the purple crystal girl, and its burning battle spirit flared like a raging fire, boiling with intensity.
“Ah! Lan Po!” the purple crystal girl exclaimed in surprise, then paused before chuckling lightly. “Lan Po, it’s been such a long time. For this big brother to tame you, it seems he’s even more impressive than I thought. But Lan Po, you know better than anyone how powerful I am. Do you really think the two of you can defeat me? Hehe, that’s hilarious…”
Zzzzt!
Another sound of space tearing apart echoed. Behind the purple crystal girl, a similar purple figure emerged from the shattered void. Her sudden appearance disrupted the already tense atmosphere, and for a fleeting moment, both the blue-haired man and the purple crystal girl displayed shock on their faces.
She had black hair, wore purple garments, and possessed a delicate body and refined features. Her eyes were closed, her hands and feet hung naturally, and her entire being floated silently in the air, motionless, as if she were asleep. If it hadn’t been for the sharp sound of space splitting, neither the blue-haired man nor the purple crystal girl would have noticed her arrival.
“…It’s you!” For the first time, the constantly smiling purple crystal girl’s expression turned serious. She shifted her posture, positioning herself sideways to face both the blue-haired man and Lan Po on her left, and the mysterious girl on her right. Even she felt an immense pressure from such an enemy lineup.
“For my brother… defeat… you…” the mysterious girl murmured softly. Though her eyes remained closed, she unerringly sensed the location of the purple crystal girl. A pale, delicate hand rose and fell gently in the air.
Boom!!
The most terrifying phenomenon in the world isn’t an explosion of energy or elements—it’s a spatial explosion.

Lingxi Scroll: Immortal Spirit Scroll
Effect: Upon use, enhances the ability to control pets and allows an additional pet to be brought into battle.
“Bring an extra pet! No way! Are my eyes playing tricks on me!?” Zuo Po Jun carefully held the seemingly unremarkable scroll in his hands, repeatedly reading it over with excitement. He still couldn’t quite believe his eyes. A scroll of Immortal Spirit rank naturally carried powerful attributes, but he hadn’t expected it to be this extraordinary.
What does it mean to bring an extra pet into battle? When a player possesses a sufficiently strong pet, fighting alongside it nearly doubles their combat strength. With two pets, the combat strength triples. If the pets are exceptionally powerful, the results are even more staggering. Summoning two pets at once was a privilege traditionally reserved for summoner classes.
Ye Tian Xie examined the attributes of the Lingxi Scroll for a moment, then put it away, his expression peculiar. “Hmm, Po Jun, you’d better use this scroll immediately. Otherwise, when we return, there’s a 100% chance that Qiu Shui will forcibly take it from you.”
With a sharp 『shrrk』, Zuo Po Jun crushed the scroll in his hand, his movement so swift as if he feared Murong Qiu Shui might appear before him in the very next second.
Ye Tian Xie: “…”
“Let’s go. Time to head back… Hmm, and maybe comfort Lao Si a bit.”
Su Fei Fei, holding the little Ice Snow Wolf in her arms, giggled.

“Sigh, the heavens are cruel. If they’ve given me unparalleled beauty, why must they also bestow upon me loneliness? Oh… loneliness, such a dreadful thing. I’d even rather see that dead-fat guy blocking my view. Hah… Why doesn’t this world have a place where I can buy champagne? I think I need it right now…”
The heartache man, holding a bow, loosed arrow after arrow in solitude. Though he prattled on endlessly to himself, every arrow he shot hit its mark perfectly—right in the center of the monsters’ foreheads. Not a single arrow missed.
If one looked closely, they’d notice that each arrow struck the exact center of the monsters’ foreheads, neither to the left nor the right, as if precisely measured in advance.
Who would believe that such precision came from a man who staggered aimlessly while never ceasing his chatter? The fundamental rule of 『one mind cannot focus on two tasks』 seemed completely inapplicable to him.
Boom!
An explosive arrow was fired, detonating and, for a rare moment, stunning two demonic sheep at once (the stun rate for basic explosive arrows is only 3%). Murong Qiu Shui pouted and said wistfully, “Kindhearted as I am, I can’t help but feel pity for poor, unlucky creatures like you. So, as the benevolent soul that I am, I shall mercifully grant you three last seconds to appreciate this beautiful world… 3… 2… 1… bingo! Farewell, babies!”
Whoosh! Whoosh!
A flurry of arrows followed, killing both of the unfortunate demonic sheep.
Demonic sheep were Level 15 monsters, but since their spawn rate was low, few players chose this area for leveling. Looking around, only a few scattered players and sparsely placed sheep could be seen in the distance.
“Sigh, Er Shao (Second Young Master), didn’t the textbooks say dinosaurs went extinct ages ago? So why are there so many dinosaurs in Huaxia? Wuuu… I’ve been wandering for so long and haven’t seen a single beauty!”
“You believe everything in textbooks? Tsk, tsk, all you ever think about is women. With that kind of ambition, how are you ever going to find a wife?” scoffed a boy carrying dual swords on his back, his eyes sharp like cold stars. He looked about fifteen or sixteen years old. Next to him, a slightly younger boy whined and complained incessantly.
The names above their heads read: Jie Ying Xing Hun and Yan Xiao Xie.
[Arrogant Shadow Star Soul-桀影星魂-Jie Ying Xing Hun, Yan Xiao Xie/Little Mischievous Yan 晏小邪]
“Hey, with Er Shao backing me up, why would I worry about finding a wife? I—Ah! Ahhh! Er Shao, look over there… a beauty! A real beauty!”
Yan Xiao Xie suddenly yelled as if he had been injected with adrenaline. His once lifeless eyes widened with excitement, burning with fervor as he pointed ahead. Jie Ying Xing Hun glanced in the direction and was momentarily stunned—indeed, standing there was a stunningly beautiful woman with an elegant demeanor and unparalleled grace.
However…
“Er Shao… Er Shao, should I go or not? If you’re not going, I’m going!” Yan Xiao Xie wiped the corner of his mouth, practically drooling, as he rubbed his hands together in anticipation.
“Hmm…” Jie Ying Xing Hun stroked his chin, his expression turning peculiar. “Xiao Xie, as your young master, I suggest… you stay away from this person.”
“It’s fine!” Yan Xiao Xie patted his chest confidently. “With my charm, there’s no woman I can’t win over. If you’re not going, I’m definitely going!”
With that, he couldn’t contain himself any longer and bolted straight toward… Murong Qiu Shui.
