Return Of The Monarch - Chapter 19 Peak Flood Dragon Realm

“How is this possible?” Sun Yi backed up a bit, and he looked at the purple monsters. To remain unaffected, were these lemures resistant to physical attacks?

“Heh, what were the words you said again? Oh yeah, DIE!” Tang Bai manically laughed, and he was enjoying the red-haired man’s unease. Together, the lemures in monster and human form began mobbing the single Sun Yi.

“This is an unwelcome surprise.” Huang Dong sighed. He had finally thought it was over, but then the slim middle-aged man had suddenly turned the tides. Rather, it was not Tang Bai, but the lemures who were in the lead. How could he be happy with the monsters winning? The other survivors were also unpleasantly spectating the scene. None of them had the gall to step forward.

“Hmph.” Liu Jun coldly watched the devil-like man being mobbed. In fact, he actually had an unsettling smile on his face. The one thing he hated the most in life was being looked down on. Previously, when the red-haired man was in control of his life, he had been incensed.

“Jun?” Qian Xue bizarrely looked at her extremely handsome boyfriend whom she had known from childhood. For some reason, he seemed like a complete stranger. Unbeknownst to her, the apocalypse was slowly changing her friends.

“I shouldn’t remain as a bystander any longer. Brother Sun, you’ve done enough.” Feng Hui thought. Sun Yi’s deduction was incorrect. It was not that the lemures were invulnerable to physical attacks; rather, they simply did not feel pain and had excellent regenerative abilities.

Initially, Sun Yi was panicking while fighting the lemures. But in the corner of his eye, he spotted Feng Hui’s reassuring smile, so he relaxed a bit. Indeed, how could a man his keen senses had accepted be normal?

While the red-haired Sun Yi was fending off the monsters, Feng Hui’s pitch-black eyes suddenly flashed with a golden light. Abruptly, the monsters felt their vision become hazy, and this split second allowed for Sun Yi to regain control. In a flash, the tides of the battle had changed.

Sending a Qi Transmission to Sun Yi, Feng Hui controlled the situation like a god.

“Brother Sun, destroy the core. It’s located in the center of the body.” Feng Hui’s pitch-black eyes pierced through the bodies of the lemures like a sheathed sword. Within a second, he had detected the flaw in the lemures’ composition. Furthermore, since the lemures had lost consciousness, their regenerative abilities were useless. These devilish creatures needed to be conscious in order to rapidly heal.

“Very well!” Sun Yi noticed the lemures’ unstableness, and he quickly took advantage. Although he was unsure if his physical attacks would work, he still followed his teammate’s advice. Suddenly, like a rocket, he shot back and forth between the lemures and impaled the center of their bodies one by one. In just half a minute, he had used his fist to create a sizable hole in every surviving lemure.

Leaving no time for the lemures to breathe, Sun Yi cast a vast golden flame and burned the creatures alive. At this stage, the controlled Tang Bai finally recovered his mind, and he roared, “No!”

During the period of slumber, if the lemures’ core was completely destroyed, the creatures would lose their regenerative abilities. Losing its immunity, Tang Bai felt his form melting into ash, and he screamed, “Please, I don’t want to be sent back!”

Feng Hui smiled at this, and he praised, “Well done.”

Meanwhile, Sun Yi lowly muttered, “Sent back to where?”

But afterward, Sun Yi retrieved this thought, and he kept it in the back of his mind. The secrets of the universe were numerous, after all.

Turning his attention to the white-uniformed teenager, Sun Yi grinned, “Thanks, Brother Hui.”

“It was a minor assistance.” Feng Hui shook his head. He had not expended much effort; only striking at the critical moment.

“Don’t be so humble. Without your help, those monsters would have won.” Sun Yi disagreed with his friend’s response, and he gave his honest opinion. According to the situation, Feng Hui truly had turned the tides with a single move.
for visiting.

Hearing Sun Yi’s praise, Feng Hui merely smiled.

At last, the system had judged Tang Bai to be dead. Previously, he was under mind-control, and he was still considered alive. Finally, only half the teams had remained. With a cold notification, a long message was projected in front of the remaining eight teams

[Congratulations, the ‘Team Battle Royale’ mission has been deemed complete.]

[Prize: Player is free to traverse level-two domains.]

[Bonus Prize: One-month immunity to forced missions. The player has the option of whether to participate.]

Although the humans had won, none of them were extremely pleased. But finally, they could at least rest for a bit. With a tired smile, many of the survivors pondered their future. In a single day, their world had collapsed. Feng Hui was listening to the silence with his eyes closed. To his side, the cute-red bloused Xie Na merrily walked up to him.

“Brother Hui, that was so cool!” Xie Na’s lively eyes glistened with adoration. Although no one else had noticed, she had seen the most beautiful golden light arise in the white-uniformed prodigy’s eyes. A minute later, Sun Yi had managed to completely turn the tides. Throughout the whole lemure incident, her eyes had been stuck to the calm Feng Hui.

“What did he do?” Liu Jun raised his brow in question. Throughout the entire event, he had been a meaningless character; he was not accustomed to this. In his entire life, with his extremely handsome looks, he had always been the center of attention. Therefore, he wasn’t very pleased that he was useless during the crucial moments. Looking at the smiling Sun Yi, he also thought, “Just wait. Once I evolve enough, I’ll show you.”

“I’m not sure but he definitely did something.” Huang Dong wasn’t watching Feng Hui, but he was certain that the mysterious youth had pulled some strings to achieve the current outcome. Initially, Sun Yi was on the losing end, but he had suddenly gained the advantage.

Along with the conversation, the remaining survivors looked at the white-uniformed youth. Seemingly, there was doubt within their gazes.

Feng Hui ignored the fervent discussion. Sealing his mind off from his surroundings, he felt a drop of sweat trickle down his forehead. Influencing the more than sixty yellow-level lemures had taken a minor toll on his body.

The lemures had wicked, vivid intelligent minds. These creatures had accumulated an abundance of chilling memories of torture and hardship; therefore, their souls were difficult to influence. Sitting cross-legged, Feng Hui closed his eyes.

Feng Hui proceeded to absorb the vital Qi of the hundreds of monster corpses. There was a plethora of rich energy sources in the atmosphere. With him as the center, the abundant Qi came flooding into his body like a never-ending whirlwind. Pushing the Ancient Dragon Manual to the limits, he took in the Qi.

Devouring the vital Qi, Feng Hui perceived his body becoming purer, sturdier, and more robust. The fluids in his body also became uncontaminated, and his bloodstream had become incomparably clean. The extensive changes were visible through the human eye.

Feng Hui’s short black hair became longer, and it flowed gracefully down to his waist. A short while later, all his pores were cleansed, and the dirty remains vanished into the atmosphere. His skin became flawless without a single blemish. It was a stunning sight.

Previously, it was solely his unique gaze which seemingly contained the universe. But after the transformation, Feng Hui’s entire being felt otherworldly. In just a few minutes, all trace of naivety from his adolescence had disappeared.

Upon reaching the Flood Dragon realm, Feng Hui’s features had become more defined, and he now had the appearance of an ethereal handsome man in his early twenties. He looked like a true lord.

Sun Yi felt the fluctuations in the atmosphere, and he knowingly smiled at Feng Hui, “He’s something else.”

Sun Yi was uncertain of the reason for Feng Hui’s mysteriousness, but it did not matter. The two of them were friends; everyone had a secret or two.

Feng Hui’s eyes became focused, and he examined the changes in his body. Nodding, he stated, “Not bad.”

In the Long Kingdom, it had taken him an entire year to reach the peak of the Flood Dragon realm. But now, for the sake of his revenge, Feng Hui was willing to walk the path of absorbing lifeforms. By plundering resources, he had managed to shoot to the peak of the Flood Dragon realm in a single day. Seemingly, his revenge was not as far away as he had thought.

Usually, cultivators needed to understand the laws of the cosmos with each realm. However, Feng Hui had already comprehended this knowledge in the past, so his journey in cultivation would be swift and steady until he reached his former peak. He had the proper foundation; all he needed was to absorb the sufficient Qi for cultivation.

Feng Hui’s luxurious black hair madly fluttered in the wind.

Feeling the changes in his body, Feng Hui threw a casual punch.

“Sss!”

The sound of cutting air boomed. The fluctuations of the wind sizzled. Judging his punch, Feng Hui could shatter a one-thousand Jin boulder with ease.

“Amazing.” Sun Yi watched the ethereal man direct a punch in awe. He could discern that the strength his friend possessed far surpassed even his power at the yellow level.

“Brother Hui” Xie Na adoringly looked at the white-uniformed man with a longing gaze. In her eyes, Feng Hui was even more attractive than before. How was that even possible?

Liu Jun examined the white-uniformed teenager in envy, and his gaze burned with desire.

“I knew it.” Huang Dong sighed. He had expected that this white-uniformed teenager was not normal, and he was correct in his prediction.

Smiling, Feng Hui walked toward his friend. Extending his hand, he grinned, “Brother Sun, I can’t offer the world, but I never mistreat my friends.”

Sun Yi smiled back, and he laughed, “Is there a need to even say this? From now on, we’re brothers!”

“Mn. No one can slight my friends.” Shaking the red-haired man’s coarse hand, Feng Hui stated.

Hearing the white-uniformed man’s authoritative declaration, Sun Yi roared in laughter, “Of course!”
