The Last Sentinel

"Young master, please don't die!"

"Don't call me 'Young Master.' I have a strong aversion to that kind of feudalistic address. You can call me 'Brother,' 'Cousin,' 'Boss,' or something like that."

"Okay, buddy, can you please not die!"

"No, I must die. Only by dying can I return to my timeline and go back to the future."

"Can't you think of this old servant for once? This old servant has waited so long for you!"

"You're not as high-ranking as me, you're not even a human being, why should I consider your feelings! If I consider your feelings, who will consider mine! We're both experiencing life for the first time, why should I indulge you? As Lu Xun said, 'Examine yourself three times a day.' Have I been too polite? Have I given you too much face? Should I have taken action? Put aside your personal manners and enjoy the perfect life, don't you understand? Get lost!"

Ye Feng kicked the fake man away, sending it flying.

The fake man watched Ye Feng leave in his flying saucer, gritting his teeth, "Ye! Feng! You wait, I'll get my revenge on you in the future!"

Ye Feng raised his hand and shook his middle finger, then plunged into the flying saucer and disappeared without a trace with a whoosh.

"Cousin—" the fake man muttered to himself, watching Ye Feng's retreating figure. "The way of the world is that you reap what you sow. I fired twenty-four shots at him in the future. Was it because he broke my heart this time that I'm torturing him like crazy in the future?"

"ah--"

"No!" The fake man suddenly rushed towards the outside of the Sanxing Tribe ruins. "Brother! That direction leads to the Ailao Mountain Savage Valley! The Ailao Mountain was the dragon farm where the Dragon-Raising Clan used to raise dragons. The savages there are all failed human races that have been modified, and there are also quite a few wild dragons. These things would have been trash in ancient times, but now they are all incredibly powerful, enough to crush a three-year-old like you..."

Just as the fake man's figure was about to break through time and space, an invisible and intangible ripple barrier appeared and blocked the fake man in the ruins.

"Hey buddy, come back!"

"Ahead lies the dragon's nest and pit!"

The fake man slammed his fists into the ripples of the barrier, but the barrier remained completely still.

The laws of time are at work; they do not allow changes to what has already happened. What Ye Feng is doing now is what he did when he was a child. This is an inevitable and predetermined fact, an unchangeable script.

Inside the flying saucer, Ye Feng was full of ambition, already imagining himself returning to his own time, leading Blue Star to vigorously develop technology, improve the level of Blue Star civilization, and march into the heavens to fight against the ancient royal faction, the merit faction, and the new generation of Zhuolu Star River!

"My father's saying 'There are predecessors before us' is telling me to believe in myself."

"My mother's saying, 'Everyone is a dragon,' was telling me to trust my people."

"They are wise."

"They didn't directly say which path was right or wrong; they simply told me that as long as I had enough confidence, every path would be filled with flowers—truly, every road would be adorned with blossoms!"

"They didn't tell me what to do, but taught me that dragons are free: dragons don't necessarily have to fly high, they can also wander around; never romanticize the path you haven't taken, life is a question, no matter how you do it, there will be regrets, rather than striving to become a better version of yourself, it's better to become a better version of yourself."

Inside the flying saucer, Ye Feng lay in the pilot's seat, his eyes gleaming. Recalling the conversation they had just had, his comprehension soared to the heavens. He muttered to himself, "[Everyone is a Dragon] Man is a dragon, I am a dragon. Think about the size of a dragon. If someone gives a young dragon a crack, it can prevent the young dragon from growing stronger or even weaken it for a short time. But a dragon is still a dragon. As long as the dragon devours enough, it will eventually roam the galaxy. Its body can exceed the length of the Great Wall of Sword Qi."

"If it were me, as long as I'm big enough and powerful enough, with the same size as a dragon, I could ignore these limitations just like a dragon. It's like cancer; cancer is deadly to humans, but on a whale it's just a pimple!"

"Become stronger, become stronger and bigger than you are now, become as big as a dragon!"

"I was too fixated on the way life is expressed. I even doubted at one point that I wasn't human, but an alien."

"But now it seems that the definition of the human race is far too broad. Dragons are humans, and humans are dragons. Continents are humans, and continents are also dragons. The Perfect Continent is currently at most in the form of a dragon egg. We must nurture the Perfect Continent like a young dragon, turning it into a giant dragon. My true form will eventually surpass this planet. One day, I will become a giant dragon, carrying the blue star in my mouth, traversing countless worlds to welcome my wandering children home. That would be truly dignified, truly glorious..."

Just as Ye Feng was fantasizing about returning to the past, a loud bang suddenly rang out!

"Damn it!"

"What's going on!"

Ye Feng felt his head buzzing. The next moment, the flying saucer was crushed by a huge force with a cracking sound. The flying saucer's outer armor, which had been neglected for many years, was instantly shattered. Two sharp and terrifying fangs pierced through the flying saucer's armor layers, and the stench of blood hit him!

"What is that?!" Ye Feng looked up at the terrifying five-meter-long fangs, his face turning pale. "A snake? A giant snake?"

With a loud "crack," another loud bang followed as a large area of ​​the metal plate was corroded by the corrosive pus. Drops of pus fell and stained the back of Ye Feng's hand, making a hissing sound. A strong corrosive and sore sensation spread throughout his body.

Ye Feng hurriedly turned around, grabbed the protective suit from the spaceship, and put it on!

Snap—

Its gleaming five-meter-long fangs snapped down once more!

Holy crap!

Ye Feng quickly curled up into a ball and escaped through the gaps between the huge fangs.

Immediately afterward, the UFO was bitten by the giant mouth, which swallowed it whole. The UFO was then pulled by a powerful force and plummeted downwards.

"This is bad!"

"I...I feel like I've been swallowed by a giant snake!"

"If this falls, we're completely finished!"

Ye Feng suddenly grabbed the muscles and ligaments next to the sharp fangs with both hands and climbed upwards along the ligaments.

Huhu——

A tremendous, foul odor swept over Ye Feng like a howling wind, threatening to pull him into its belly.

Ye Feng frantically pulled at his ligaments, staring at the giant snake's terrifying inner jaws.

Ordinary snakes only have one pair of fangs!

And from the snake's huge mouth grew a dense array of tiny teeth, like white bamboo shoots!

These tiny, bright white teeth gleamed like the finest white porcelain!

Is this... is this still a snake?

This is clearly a jiao, a dragon!

Ye Feng's mind raced. This was the site of the Sanxingdui Dragon-Raising Clan's ruins. So, the Ailao Mountains on the ground were obviously the dragon-raising grounds left by the Dragon-Raising Clan. It was for this reason that the Ailao Mountains had always been known as the forbidden zone of life.

"Roar—" The giant snake suddenly opened its huge mouth, a maw big enough to swallow a basketball court. A black wind howled, trying to throw Ye Feng away.

"What are you thinking about!"

"Eat me if you want, spit me out if you don't!"

"Don't I, Ye Feng, have any pride?"

Ye Feng, in a fit of rage, struck the weakest point of the ligament with his right hand, snapping a half-meter-long, small white porcelain dragon tooth in two!

The snake blood gushed out wildly!

The giant snake's body rolled violently, crashing down!

Ye Feng took the opportunity to hide in the crater where the dragon tooth was broken. This way, the black wind outside could not blow on him. The giant snake was surrounded by small dragon teeth, which could act as a fence for him. If the giant snake wanted to kill him, it would have to destroy the teeth of his newly born dragon!

Come on, let's kill a thousand and lose eight hundred enemies!
