With half a game of chess, I vanquish all demons!

puff~

A wave burst forth from the sea, and the giant monkey that Zhao Yao had transformed into jumped into the sea.

In the seawater, the golden-red monkey fur clung to his body after getting wet, revealing the outline of his well-defined muscles.

The demonic dragon Yunchi, chasing after them, burst into laughter upon seeing this, its dragon snout splitting open to reveal its gleaming white teeth:

Haha~

There is a way to heaven if you don't go, but there is no way to hell you break in!

Knowing I am a dragon, why did you flee into the sea?

That's just asking for trouble!

She smacked her lips twice, the resentment in her dragon eyes turning into mockery. Seeing Zhao Yao swimming further and further away, she hurriedly pounced on him.

Call ~

She flew forward, exhaling a large amount of cold air. Her dragon mouth opened wide, and white mist cascaded down like a waterfall, causing the warm seawater to suddenly turn icy cold. A layer of white frost formed on the sea surface, and layers of ice spread towards Zhao Yao.

Zhao Yao seemed oblivious, relying on the heat within his body to withstand the cold, steaming out wisps of white vapor, and vigorously paddling with his limbs, still swimming in one direction on his own.

After a few breaths, seeing that its breath attack was ineffective against him, Yun Chi's dragon eyes flashed with annoyance, and it simply shut its mouth.

Her body lunged downwards, her five toes spread wide, her dragon claws like hooks, gleaming coldly, as she grabbed at Zhao Yao's spine.

puff~

At the critical moment, Zhao Yao dove down into the seabed, his body disappearing into the deep blue depths, leaving Yun Chi with nothing but a handful of seawater in its claws.

"Hmph~"

Yun Chi snorted angrily, shook off the seawater with its dragon claws, and followed closely behind. With a flick of its tail, it plunged into the seabed.

In the seawater, her dragon eyes widened as she stared at Zhao Yao's back, revealing an expression of disbelief.

hum~bum~

Ahead, Zhao Yao removed the jade armor from his body, causing it to scatter into jade radiance, which then reformed behind him, transforming into a set of turbine blades and fixing itself behind him.

Huhuhu~

The turbine blades had sharp, blade-like edges, and as they spun rapidly, they stirred up layers of bubbles in the seawater.

The jade-colored turbine propelled his body forward like an arrow, leaving a trail of bubbles in the deep blue sea.

Is it even possible?

Yun Chi was shocked. Its dragon eyes narrowed slightly, and then it swung its tail and chased after Zhao Yao, moving faster than he could.

Before long, she successfully caught up with Zhao Yao.

No matter how fancy your skills are, they can't compare to the true dragon's control over the sea!

"Gurgle~ (Zhao Yao, your life is mine!)"

Yun Chi roared in the sea, the sound waves shaking the water. It swung its thick tail, breaking through the seawater and creating an undercurrent that slammed heavily into Zhao Yao's neck.

Splash!

hum~

In an instant, a burst of jade-colored light erupted, and Zhao Yao's figure appeared out of thin air, a step away, barely dodging Yun Chi's attack. The dragon's tail grazed his shoulder, leaving a trail of bubbles.

—More than ten primordial energy figures have been integrated into his body, and he is already able to use the Jade Soldier Technique.

bang~

The dragon's tail struck empty air, causing the seawater to burst open and a white wave to surge up, but it failed to achieve its goal.

Zhao Yao tried to escape forward, and casually took out the dragon-piercing spear earring from the jade ring stored on the broken jade chessboard, stuffed it into his ear, and the jade light shimmered, sealing the ear canal.

Next, all the resistance exerted on him by the seawater was absorbed by the dragon-piercing spear earring, which then transformed into bursts of energy that silently shot towards the cloud dragon behind him.

With no resistance in front of him, he allowed the turbine behind him to propel his body forward at high speed, like a swimming fish, leaving the demonic dragon Yun Chi far behind in the blink of an eye, the distance between them growing ever wider.

Ta-da!

"Gurgle~ (Zhao Yao!)"

Struck by the force of the spear and seeing this situation, Yun Chi became furious. His dragon eyes turned red, and his dragon tail thrashed wildly, causing the seawater behind him to surge.

As a true dragon, it was left behind by these strange and ingenious tricks in the water.

This is an utter disgrace!

Click~

Just then, the last bit of power from the Frost Dragon Pearl was also digested. A warm sensation spread from the dragon's belly to her entire body, and her body was strengthened once again. Her scales became denser, her muscles more powerful, and her speed increased dramatically.

Yun Chi felt the changes within its body and was overjoyed. With a flick of its tail, its body shot out like an arrow, and it chased after Zhao Yao at an unprecedented speed.

Just as she was about to catch up with Zhao Yao, Zhao Yao's body suddenly rose upwards.

puff~

He burst out of the water, kicking up a spray of water.

puff~

The cloud dragon followed closely behind, its head bursting out of the water, water droplets sliding off its scales.

She was about to chase after him and kill Zhao Yao when she suddenly froze in mid-air, stunned.

Ahead lies a small island.

Zhao Yao stood on the island, soaked to the bone, his golden-red monkey fur clinging to his body. His eyes flickered with transparent flames as he calmly gazed at her, his eyes showing no sign of flinching or further escape.

"Hmph~ Good, very good, you finally stopped running away!"

Let's settle this once and for all.

The cloud dragon hovered in the air, its body coiled, and looked at Zhao Yao with a cold snort.

Her dragon-like mouth slightly opened, releasing billowing clouds and white mist surging from her body like a tide, instantly enveloping the entire island and trapping Zhao Yao in the mist, with visibility reduced to only a few feet.

Zhao Yao stood still, his arms hanging naturally at his sides, quietly waiting for her to finish all the arrangements, his breathing steady and normal.

This was the dueling arena he had chosen. It was surrounded by the sea and deserted, so no one would come here to disturb them.

After the cloud dragon spread this thick fog, no one would be able to witness their battle.

"Phew~"

Without saying a word, Yun Chi hovered in mid-air, looking down at Zhao Yao on the island, and spewed out a large mouthful of cold air. The white air poured down like a waterfall.

Boom!

Zhao Yao's body was engulfed in starlight, the red flames like a garment, covering his entire body. He allowed the cold air to penetrate him, and the ice and fire collided, causing billowing steam to rise, making the fog on the island even thicker, a vast expanse of white, so thick that one could not see their own hand in front of their face.

"Shh~"

Seeing that its breath attack was ineffective against him, the dragon's eyes flashed with a fierce light, and it finally lowered itself down.

She extended her dragon claws, her five toes like hooks, and viciously clawed down at Zhao Yao's head.

Call ~

A strong wind pressed down, breaking through the white fog.

Zhao Yao dodged to the side, the dragon claw grazing his shoulder and crushing a rock behind him, sending fragments flying everywhere.

He pressed forward and punched the dragon's neck, his fist wreathed in starlight, denting the scales.

The cloud dragon felt pain and shrank its body.

"hold head high--"

Yun Chi roared, its tail sweeping out and lashing towards Zhao Yao's waist with a whooshing sound.

Zhao Yao bent his knees slightly, leaped into the air, and the dragon's tail swept past his feet, snapping two coconut trees in two.

While he was in the air, Yu Hui condensed into a greatsword in his hand, gripped the hilt, and fell down, slashing heavily towards her!

Clang!

The sword blade sliced ​​through the dragon scales, sparks flying everywhere.

Enraged, the cloud dragon coiled its body around Zhao Yao, trapping him in the center.

"Die!"

In an instant, the cloud-like dragon used its claws, tail, and snout simultaneously, launching a relentless attack.

Shock! Shock! Shock!

The jade sword dissipated and reformed into armor on the body's surface.

The cloud dragon's attack left countless white marks on the jade armor.

Ripples also appeared on Zhao Yao's body, which was the effect of the assassin's gun.

He maneuvered and dodged within this small space, his jade armor covering his fists, delivering blow after blow.

bang~ bang~ bang~

The jade armor and dragon scales collided frequently, scattering shards of jade and scales everywhere.

stab~

The dragon's claws gripped the jade armor, leaving white marks and sparks flying together.

As the battle continued, the dragon claws of the Cloud Dragon, which originally relied solely on brute force to bite and pounce, gradually developed a methodical approach, and the lashes from its tail became increasingly cunning.

The fighting instincts of a true dragon within her were finally awakened by the stimulation of blood and pain.

Her newly acquired abilities were also rapidly perfected in the life-and-death battles.

The control of fog, the chilling aura, the breath, and the dragon's might flowed more and more smoothly.

Call ~

The billowing fog spread out like a tide, enveloping the two of them once again.

Her immense pressure was palpable within the mist!

Zhao Yao's body went limp in waves, forcing him to retreat repeatedly. His jade armor shattered, and several bloody gashes were torn from his shoulders and back by the dragon's claws, his golden-red monkey fur stained with blood.

"Huffing and puffing~"

He was breathing heavily, but his eyes were piercing.

The hair of the mimosa monkey, when ingested or touched, has aphrodisiac and aphrodisiac effects!

The two fought closely for a long time, and the effects of this had accumulated and were difficult to dispel.

"Burning with lust!"

Zhao Yao's eyes flickered with transparent flames, and he suddenly unleashed the supernatural power of the Joyful Ape.

He wasn't using his influence on others, but on himself!

Call ~

A transparent flame ignited from his heart, quickly spreading throughout his body, burning his eyes until they turned bloodshot and his breathing became heavy and labored.

"Huffing and puffing~"

The flames, following his gaze and the monkey fur on his body, climbed up the dragon's body like invisible vines.

"Hmm~"

Just as the cloud dragon was about to swing its claws to attack again, it suddenly groaned.

She felt a surge of heat rising from the bottom of her heart, quickly spreading to her limbs and bones. Her dragon body involuntarily went limp, the muscles beneath her scales trembled slightly, and her attack faltered.

Zhao Yao seized this momentary opening, shattering the jade armor and scattering it into jade radiance. The radiance then coalesced, transforming into several jade ropes that bound the dragon claws and body of the cloud dragon.

Call ~

He leaped onto the dragon's back, gripping its horns tightly with both hands. He simultaneously activated the Starfire and the Fire of Desire, channeling them along the dragon's horns into the Cloud Dragon's head.

"hold head high--"

The cloud dragon let out a roar that was not one of pain but rather an indescribable dragon's cry. Its body trembled violently, and clouds and cold air leaked out uncontrollably, causing the thick fog to churn even more violently.

Zhao Yao rode on her back, his hands groping back and forth on her dragon body, rising and falling with her trembling.

Gradually, the starlight surrounding him faded, the jade armor around him was retracted into his body, and the golden-red monkey fur gradually shortened. His enormous body shrank a bit, revealing human skin and face.

"Huffing and puffing~"

He lay on the dragon's back, his hands still gripping the dragon's horns tightly, his breathing heavy as he followed the struggles of the demonic dragon, Yun Chi.

The dragon's body was also changing; its scales contracted, its claws shortened, its head transformed into a human face, and its body transformed into a human form.

"Huffing and puffing~"

She was also breathing heavily.

In the thick fog, somehow the two became entangled and fought incessantly.

The two fought for a long time on the island.

In the thick fog, she suddenly transformed into the appearance of her teacher's wife, Aoshuang.

The teacher's wife had gentle features and snow-white skin, just like the teacher's wife I had seen in the county government office that day, except that her eyes were filled with a hazy, watery light.

Zhao Yao's pupils contracted sharply, his heart skipped a beat, and he suddenly exerted force in his hand, wanting to push Yun Chi away from him but also feeling reluctant to let go.

wrong!

He bit his tongue, and the sharp pain brought him back to his senses.

Yun Chi swallowed Master's wife Ao Shuang's dragon pearl and mastered part of Ao Shuang's power, and was even able to transform into Master's wife's appearance.

boo~

Zhao Yao struggled to climb off the smooth back of the Yun Chi dragon, retreating backward repeatedly.

Yun Chi fell to the ground, rolled twice, its dragon eyes blank, and instinctively rose into the air to search for Zhao Yao.

Having escaped the maze, Zhao Yao had achieved half of her goal and was about to begin the other half of her plan, but she was unwilling to let him succeed.

bang~

He pushed off the ground with both legs and leaped into the air.

Call ~

Yun Chi lunged forward, grabbed his feet with both hands, and dragged him back to the ground.

bang~

A man and a dragon crashed into a pile of sharp rocks, sending debris flying everywhere.

The two became entangled again, lost in a maze, engaging in most instinctive hand-to-hand combat, fighting from the island to the shallows, and then from the shallows into the deep sea, always shrouded in that thick fog.

From within the mist, the occasional roar of a dragon could be heard, followed by a furious howl, and then the muffled thud of a heavy object crashing into the water.

They fought for an unknown amount of time, until the moon rose high in the sky.

On the deserted island, Zhao Yao and Yun Chi were both exhausted and panting heavily.

Zhao Yao was covered in wounds. His assassin's gun was long gone, and his left arm hung limply at his side, its bones broken.

Yun Chi was in no better shape; most of its dragon scales were shattered, its wounds were torn open, and its dragon blood stained the rocks beneath it.

"Huff...huff..."

"Huff...huff..."

Both were too exhausted to fight, lying on the rocks panting heavily, staring at each other across several feet.

The cloud dragon's eyes were filled with resentment and unwillingness. It struggled to get up, its claws carving deep grooves in the rocks, but it couldn't support itself.

Panting, Zhao Yao used his still-functioning right hand to prop himself up and looked at Yun Chi.

"Thumbac, magic."

His voice was hoarse and as low as a mosquito's buzz, yet it reached Yun Chi's ears clearly.

The cloud dragon stiffened, a struggle flashing in its eyes, but it was too weak to resist.

She was already exhausted, her energy depleted in the long battle, and her spirit was extremely weary.

"Yun Chi, I command you... to surrender."

The dragon's eyes gradually darkened, and its head slowly drooped down, resting against the reef. Its body stretched out, its muscles relaxed, and it showed no further signs of struggling.

Dragging his severed arm, Zhao Yao staggered to Yun Chi, leaving bloody marks on the rocks with every step.

puff~

He suddenly reached out and grabbed among the shattered scales of the cloud dragon, finding the dragon pearl there.

The Dragon Ball was warm and pulsed in his palm, like a heart.

The cloud dragon seemed to sense something; the darkness in its eyes faded for a moment, regaining a sliver of clarity. It opened its mouth slightly and emitted a hoarse human voice:

"Zhao Yao...you..."

Without hesitation, Zhao Yao clenched his five fingers together and pulled hard!

puff~

He forcibly pulled the Dragon Ball from the belly of the Cloud Dragon, dripping with dragon blood, and it gleamed with a ghostly blue luster under the moonlight.

"Ugh~~"

The cloud dragon's body suddenly stiffened, letting out a short, mournful cry, before collapsing limply.

"You... even if you kill me... you won't escape... the royal family... the Heavenly Destiny Tower... will not let you go..."

Her eyes showed fear, and her voice grew softer and softer.

"Huffing and puffing..."

Zhao Yao, holding the dragon pearl, stood beside the Yun Chi corpse, panting heavily.

The moonlight shone on his wounds, on the dragon pearl in his hand, and on the gradually cooling dragon body of Yun Chi.

Although the plan encountered a slight mishap, he still managed to kill her.

The thick fog gradually dissipated on the island.

Under the moonlight, there were only the remains of a man and a dragon, and shattered scales and bloodstains scattered on the ground.

Zhao Yao gripped the dragon pearl tightly in his hand and turned to look towards the sea.
