He is currently in the Dragon Clan and has married Erii.

Just as Genji was deep in thought about how the Snake Clan should proceed in the future, he heard footsteps behind him again.

"Why are you back again? Didn't I tell you to go get bandaged up?!" Yuan Zhisheng didn't even turn his head, and shouted angrily.

The person behind him didn't speak; she simply reached out and embraced Genjiro.

In an instant, a fragrance as gentle as cherry blossoms yet exceptionally sharp wafted over, causing Genjiro to be slightly lost in thought.

The person behind him wasn't that fool Yasha, but his current wife, Sakura Yabuki.

"Are you tired?" Genji gently held Sakura's small hand, his face full of concern.

"Not too tiring." Sakura smiled, and the radiance and beauty of that moment stunned Genji.

"Ahem..." Genji coughed lightly, embarrassed. "Sakura, how are Father and Erii?"

Sakura gently massaged Genji's shoulders with her small hands, then answered in a soft voice, "They're all fine! Lord Uesugi was exhausted from releasing the Word of Power 'Black Sun' and fainted! He'll be fine after a good night's sleep. Miss Erii received the serum and is already asleep."

"That's good." Genji's tightly furrowed brows finally relaxed slightly. "What about Caesar and the others?"

"They're making sashimi..." Sakura answered Genji's question with a blank expression.

"Where did they get the fish? I remember the food reserves on the Sumeru pedestal were all emergency rations, right?"

"It's said that he picked it up casually while fighting the Corpse Guardian at sea."

Yuan Zhisheng: "..."

They were fighting to the death against the monsters, yet those lunatics were still in the mood to catch fish! Even though they were enemies, what they were doing was incredibly disrespectful to the corpse guardians.

All I can say right now is, "Well done!"

At the same time, the three lunatics that Genji was talking about were eating on an open-air platform of the Sumeru pedestal.

Caesar, who was as strong as a golden lion, found a chef's hat from somewhere. He put the hat on his head in a very professional manner, then took out his hunting knife "Dictvedo," which he had just used to cut the corpse guard, and began to skillfully slice raw fish.

Thin slices of meat, as thin as cicada wings, appeared with Caesar's movements. Due to the limited conditions during this special period, the three of them did not prepare any dipping sauces or anything like that, and simply ate the meat with the mustard sauce that the crow had brought them.

If a gourmet witnessed this, they would surely exclaim that it was a terrible waste of resources…

But eating it this way is pretty good! The freshness of the fish and the spiciness of the wasabi sauce explode in your mouth at the same time. While enjoying the delicious food, the three of them felt as if their skulls had been opened, and a cool breeze was blowing out from the inside out.

"Awesome!!" Lu Mingfei, his face flushed red, used a single word to describe his current feeling.

"So delicious..." Caesar exclaimed, his face flushed. "It's a pity Tang Yu can't have any!"

Caesar's casual remark instantly turned the previously lighthearted atmosphere heavy again.

The sorrow of losing a comrade-in-arms began to permeate the air. Caesar, the artsy type, carved a crystal-clear "white rose" from fish meat and gently placed it on the other corner of the table to commemorate the sacrifice of Tang Yu.

Unbeknownst to these three grieving lunatics, at this very moment, the object of their mourning is in another dimension, fiercely battling the King of the Sky and the Wind...

------------

144 The King of the Sky and Wind, fell!

In the Nibelungen left behind by the White Emperor, Tang Yu and Li Wuyue fought to the death, both suffering heavy losses.

However, judging from the final result, Tang Yu still had a slight advantage.

On a black stone plaza in the Nibelungenlied, Tang Yu, pale-faced and panting, knelt on the ground. Although he looked extremely miserable, he still stared at Li Wuyue, who was also unable to move, dozens of meters away with a mocking expression.

"Why aren't you awesome anymore? Keep being awesome! Use Time Zero and Moment to hit me!" Tang Yu used the "Taunt" skill.

As Tang Yu's words became increasingly offensive, Li Wuyue's slightly dim golden eyes revealed ruthlessness and anger.

He had never been provoked like this by mortals who were like ants!

If looks could kill, Tang Yu would probably be ashes by now...

Unfortunately, even the King of the Sky and the Wind does not have the ability to kill with his eyes.

Li Wuyue was already nearing the end of her life. The only reason she still had the strength to engage in verbal sparring with Tang Yu was because of the last bit of power provided by "Blood Explosion".

Once the "Blood Burst" state disappears, He will not even have the strength to speak, and He will instantly transform from a noble Dragon King into a lamb to the slaughter!

As for Tang Yu, although his condition wasn't much better, at least he could still squeeze some strength out of his body. He might not be able to do anything too complicated, but ending Li Wuyue's life... he could still manage it with difficulty.

"You lowly mortal, don't think you've won! When we meet again, I will repay you tenfold for the humiliation you suffered today! Even if you possess the power of the Sinful Dragon, you cannot stop my revenge! So... give me a dignified death!" Li Wuyue stiffened her neck, turned her head away, leaving Tang Yu with only a bald back of her head.

"You're in such a hurry to die! This is the first time I've ever heard such a shameless request. Since you're so sincerely begging me, I'll be merciful and let you die!"

Tang Yu struggled to use his knife to support himself on the ground, and staggered to Li Wuyue's side. He tentatively poked Li Wuyue's limp body with the tip of his knife, but received no response.

The once-respected king of the sky and wind has now truly lost the ability to resist!

"Go play inside the dragon egg!"

With his last ounce of strength, Tang Yu swung the "Abyss Fury" sword down, its blade shimmering with an eerie, blood-red light.

A flash of red light suddenly appeared, and Li Wuyue's head rolled to the ground, its bright red blood spurting out far and wide, creating a scene with an eerie beauty...

"Damn it! Tang Yu, you good-for-nothing!" Iska suddenly appeared on Tang Yu's shoulder. Looking at the Dragon King's blood splattered all over the ground, his large, amethyst-like eyes were filled with heartache.

An invisible force swept by, and the blood flowing on the ground instantly gathered together as if rewinding. Under the influence of some invisible force, this majestic blood of the Dragon King slowly condensed into a blood sphere.

Looking at the blood sphere, as red as a fine ruby, Iscaron revealed a wicked, almost human-like smile.

"Li Wuyue, Li Wuyue, no matter how cunning you are, you still have to drink my foot bath water! You think you're safe just because your soul escaped? Watch me prepare a big surprise for you! King of the Sky and Wind... I look forward to seeing your expression when you return!" Iska smiled brightly.

"What are you going to do?" Tang Yu could very keenly detect the mischievousness in Iska's voice.

"What am I going to do? Of course, I'm going to try to steal a little bit of the power of the King of the Sky and the Wind! Li Wuyue has only been dead for a short time, and his bones are still warm! Although the bones here are not the Dragon Bone Cross and do not have the power of the Dragon King, I can try to steal a little bit of power from his bloodline..." Iska said with a proud look on his face.

"That's amazing! But what's the use of it?"

"Of course it's awesome! As for its usefulness... it's not that great. It just adds a few more Words of Power within the Sky and Wind King's domains. The added Words of Power are random, so what they are depends on your luck!"

Iska paused for a moment, then said, “You could get the most powerful world-destroying Word of Power in the Sky and Wind King’s domain, Storm Serpent, or you could get the Word of Power known as the ‘weakest,’ Gentle Breeze! Based on what I know about you… the probability of you getting Gentle Breeze is very high.”

"That really hurts, bro!" Tang Yu glared at Iska angrily. As the saying goes, you shouldn't insult someone by pointing out their weaknesses. Iska had just hit a nerve with Tang Yu right off the bat, which was really infuriating!

Every unlucky person dreams of becoming a lucky one, even at the cost of their lifespan...

……

After giving Tang Yu a hard stab in the heart, Iska began to concentrate on doing some strange things with Li Wuyue's skeleton.

Half an hour later, Iska stopped what she was doing.

He looked at the thumb-sized, pale blue ball of light floating in front of him, then nodded in satisfaction.

Mission accomplished!

"You wasted so much time, and all you got was this little gadget? Is this thing really as amazing as you say?" Tang Yu tentatively reached out his finger, wanting to poke the seemingly "unresponsive" ball of light.

But he failed, and Iska angrily swung its tail to shake off Tang Yu's claws.

"Don't you want your claws anymore? This thing is a highly materialized representation of the Wind Authority. If you reach out and touch it... it's practically like sticking your fingers into a meat grinder. Your fingers will be ground into very fine minced meat, the kind you can use to make filling!"

"Ugh... what you said is disgusting!" Tang Yu shuddered, then noticed a key point he had previously overlooked: "Speaking of which, Iska, I remember you said before that the authority you wield is related to 'Stars,' but I feel like... you only know how to steal!"

"This is not the power of authority, but my personal ability, cough cough... something I developed when I was young!" Iska replied calmly, without batting an eye.

“I think I already know what you did when you were young… Let’s not talk about that for now, teach me how to absorb this ball of light!” Tang Yu gestured with his hand.

"Just eat it." Iska smiled mischievously.

"Eat it?" Tang Yu's face turned pale. "Didn't you say this thing was absolutely forbidden to be touched? Now you're telling me to eat it! Tell me, are you trying to kill me and then inherit my Alipay account?"

"Believe it or not!" Iska spread his dragon claws, then said earnestly, "No pain, no gain. Trust me, with me here, I definitely won't let you die... at most, it will hurt a little."

Iska spoke the last few words very softly, clearly not wanting Tang Yu to hear them.

------------

145 Words of Power: The Serpent of the Storm

"Then I'll really eat it!"

Under Iska's strange gaze, Tang Yu opened his mouth and swallowed the ball of light floating in front of him.

"I don't feel anything... Ah, damn it!" Tang Yu only managed to say half of his sentence before the intense pain made him swallow the rest.

I didn't feel anything when I first ate it, but just half a second later, an indescribable pain flowed down my esophagus into my stomach and then spread throughout my body...

The feeling was similar to swallowing knives, but swallowing several at once.

The intense pain contorted Tang Yu's features, making him look like he was wearing a mask of agony, which evoked both a sense of absurdity and pity.

"Damn it! That old bastard Iska tricked me!" This was the only thought in Tang Yu's mind, which was dominated by excruciating pain.

He wanted to swear at Iska, but unfortunately, he couldn't speak at that moment.

Even if you can't speak, you can't just keep putting up with this!

So Tang Yu strained to turn his only movable eyeball, staring intently at Iska with a look full of regret.

The resentment emanating from the depths of those dark eyes was enough to destroy the heavens and the earth.

"Okay, okay! I was wrong, alright! Stop staring at me like that!" Under Tang Yu's resentful gaze, Iska gave in.

Tang Yu: "Waaaaah..."

(Stop immediately if you're making a mistake!)

Iska: "It won't stop. Ever since you swallowed that ball of light, the power of the wind has begun to combine with your body. The pain will continue until the combination is complete."

Tang Yu: "Waaah..."

(Then just knock me out already!)

Iska: "I can't do that! When you merge with the Authority, you are invincible. Unless you break the balance with power equivalent to the Authority of Wind, you'd better just accept it!"

Tang Yu: "..."

The intense pain was like a series of waves, one higher than the next.

At some point, the pain reaches its peak.

In that instant, Tang Yu seemed to see his maternal grandfather, who had passed away long ago, waving to him from heaven.

……

Am I dead?
