The Dragon Clan citizens were closing in on the Clan Leader and the others when someone laughed gently. The light sound tore through the air and broke the anxious atmosphere.
“This illusion was very well crafted, even the dragon’s roar had such a great aura. I wonder if you can release this illusion once more so that I may see it again?”
Murong Xiao’s complacent expression froze instantly. His cold eyes turned towards the gently smiling woman beneath him as murderous intent flashed in his eyes.
“I don’t know what you’re talking about.”
Gu Ruoyun smiled. “I’d like to see this illusionary Dragon King again. I wonder if that’s convenient?”
As she spoke, she had purposely clenched her teeth at the word ‘illusionary’.
Murong Xiao’s expression grew increasingly unsightly. Even the crowd beneath him could sense the eerily cold murderous air from his being.
“Hehe, little girl, do you know what you’re saying?” Murong Xiao sneered, “Are you saying that the Dragon Clan’s Dragon King is only an illusion? Perhaps the corpse he has left behind is a fake as well?”
Gu Ruoyun swept her eyes towards him when she heard this. “Do you not comprehend human language? When had I ever said that the Dragon Clan’s Dragon King was a fake? What I said is that the one in your grasp is a fake. You had happened to see the Dragon King only once so you had used an illusion to craft his likeness to use it to fool the Dragon Clan’s members. Am I right?”
Gu Ruoyun was indeed right.
This Dragon King was only an illusion and not the real Dragon King.
Murong Xiao’s features became increasingly ugly because Gu Ruoyun was right.
“Little girl, you really are taking the advantage. The Dragon King with me is genuine yet you dared to besmirch him. If it wasn’t for the fact that the Dragon King’s spirit had suffered a mild injury and is now nursing his wounds, you would have immediately died by the Dragon King’s claws. Let me tell you this, the Dragon King is now enraged after hearing your words!”
The Dragon Clan’s members do not trust Gu Ruoyun’s words so one of them immediately yelled out, “Lord Murong, summon the Dragon King and show her so that she will give up!”
Murong Xiao fell silent.
His heart was dismayed that Gu Ruoyun had managed to see through the illusion at first glance. However, he has great confidence in that illusion! Even if he were to display the illusion once again, Gu Ruoyun could never prove anything.
Murong Xiao nodded at the thought of this. “Since that’s the case, I will let the Dragon King see the world again to avoid any dissatisfaction!”
Roar!
Just as he had spoken, a dragon’s roar rang out once again. A purple figure then flew across the sky and appeared before everyone’s eyes.
However, if one were to look closely, they would notice that this dragon’s eyes were completely lifeless. There was no light of life in them at all! Even its slithering body was stiff and did not have a large dragon’s sinuous movements.
“Have you had a good look? If you’ve had a good look, then…” Murong Xiao laughed coldly and was just about to put the Dragon King away.
Suddenly, a greatsword the size of a man suddenly appeared in front of the woman. That greatsword released at terrifying light and made it difficult for the people around it to breathe.
At the same time, a purple light flashed and shot across the greatsword. That light charged quickly towards the purple dragon in the sky without any warning.
“Quick, save the Dragon King, quick!”
The crowd was shocked by her action and hurriedly cried out when they regained their senses.
However, even Murong Xiao who was nearest to the purple dragon has just returned to his senses. He was too late to save it and could only watch as the large purple light slashed the illusionary dragon’s body.
