The Emperor God Wife Is Naughty
135. Heavenly Dragon

Xie Ran was immersed in controlling his divine power. His originally dense soul became transparent making his friends worried. Xie Ran's soul grew thinner and thinner as it evaporated, the silver light gathering into a circle filled the melted soul to look like a huge dragon egg.

Suddenly the volcano became more and more active making the ground filled with hot lava that kept creeping across the place. Pei Xi carried Xie Ran's physical body preparing to leave, but Yu Zainan and Jian Wu suddenly appeared blocking their path.

"Xi'er, if you want to hand it over, I'll give you and your friends a chance to get out of here." Jian Wu gave the conditions. This sight was the thing he was looking forward to.

Yan Yao and the others instantly stood their backs to Pei Xi to protect Xie Ran. Xie Ran's soul was still busy while his body was severely injured, this condition was very alarming.

Long Ying emerged from the volcano's greetings, her roar sounding very clear and instantly launching an attack towards Yu Zainan and Jian Wu. If only Jian Wu had not appeared all of a sudden, he had already killed Yu Zainan before the formation activated. Now, the formation has been activated, this situation is too dangerous.

Yu Zainan and Jian Wu managed to stay away. They ordered the demons to attack Pei Xi and the others. Pei Xi handed Xie Ran over to Mei Liena to guard, the rest will fight against the demons and Yu Zainan and Jian Wu.

Long Yun and Xiao Caihong appeared as the demons advanced. The two of them were at the very front, whereas Long Ying in the sky was preparing for an attack.

The battle this time, will be more difficult than before when in the academy.

Ann Rou and Dou Dou had changed to their original forms. Their original form was quite large, yet Bai Long was bigger so they had to work together to stall for longer.

Bai Long's strength was clearly above theirs, only the Azure Dragon could stand against him. However, that did not mean that they could not withstand this troublesome Heavenly Dragon. Each combination attack from the two of them was enough to make Bai Long retreat and take some time to destroy it.

For now, they could only hope that Xie Ran's plan worked, Xie Ran also appeared faster before the strength of the two of them was exhausted.

On the other hand, Xie Ran was still in a huge 'egg' as if dissolved in his own condition. Dissolved in silence and loneliness, like being in cultivation for hundreds of years in the dark.

Xie Ran was aware the situation out there was not good, but he could not get up, completely locked in by the dragon divinity he had received. He was unable to sense anything other than the energy on his soul continuously flowing and surging into a new form. The pain in his soul was unbearable, but he remained in his original position as if nothing had happened.

The divinity of a dragon can indeed turn its owner into a dragon, but it is not as strong as a real dragon and only in a certain period of time. With Xie Ran's strength, the process was almost impossible. But if the owner is really not a human and has the blood of a god in his veins, it is not impossible. He will truly become a dragon in the process of being reborn, fully refining the dragon's divinity.

This is a gamble. Xie Ran did not expect his gamble to succeed or not, he just wanted to confirm the truth immediately. If all that was not true, he would fight life and death with Bai Long.

In addition, Pei Xi and friends fought against the invading demons. Pei Xi and Yan Yao fought Yu Zainan who was very actively attacking, in contrast to Jian Wu who was just silently watching. While the rest get rid of the demons who tried to take Xie Ran's physical body.

Xie Ran still needed longer, they had to endure!

Mei Liena couldn't fight head-on for guarding Xie Ran, so she took out a green jade phyton to help her friends. A snake as big as Xiao Caihong appeared throwing many demons, moreover the snake could not die so the demons were increasingly in a bad position.

Jian Wu narrowed his eyes looking at the cornered demons just because of the brats, even Yu Zainan could not defeat Pei Xi and Yan Yao who were still at the advanced professional stage. Absolutely disgraceful!

Just as Jian Wu was grumbling how incompetent Yu Zainan was, the dragons in the Spirit Forest started to come out. No matter what the cause was, Jian Wu began to be wary of the killing intent emanating from the dragons.

Long Yun and Long Ying automatically sensed it. They thought for a moment, then turned to look at the huge 'egg' containing their master. Suddenly their eyes widened. Now, they understood why the dragons were noisier.

Just when Long Yun and Long Ying were thinking about it, various sorts of dragons from within the Spirit Forest came out. Their numbers were not small, their wings flapped so quickly snatched the obstructing demons. The dragons that could not fly were lifted up by the flying dragons in order not to splash into the hot lava that spread all over the ground.

Zhong Xiaorong used his phoenix form to bring his companions into the air. The wings on her back were flapped so beautifully accompanied by a spark of pointy ice that caused the demons to be stabbed like thorns.

With the tendrils belonging to Mei Liena wrapped around all of her companions, Zhong Xiaorong became easier to lift them into the air as lava filled the ground they were on.

"We go to the Dark Region," Zhong Xiaorong exclaimed.

"Ranran—"

"Ranran told us to protect his body. I'm sure he's been counting it and can protect himself." Zhong Xiaorong had complete confidence. He had already given a shield around Xie Ran's soul as well as Pei Xi's, even the approaching lava could not burn the ground where Xie Ran was.

"True, under these circumstances, we can't confront Yu Zainan and Jian Wu together." Zhou Kui immediately agreed. Moreover, Zhong Xiaorong's wings were not permanent and consumed a lot of his strength.

"We rely on Ann Rou and Dou Dou to protect Ranran. Xiao Caihong, Long Yun, and Long Ying were also with him." Zhong Xiaorong was actually a bit heavy and very worried, but he was sure Xie Ran could get through it. Without saying anything more, he flapped his wings going to the Dark Region.

The departure of Zhong Xiaorong and the others made the demons chase because they had to get Xie Ran's physical body. Yu Zainan also gave chase, leaving Jian Wu who stood in midair alone watching the battle between the remaining dragons and demons.

He still did not understand why these dragons had suddenly become so excited. He looked for the reason, then found a shadow shield in which a thick layer of ice covered an 'egg' containing a person's soul.

Nothing can be missed from the sight of fairies. Jian Wu knew who was inside there and instantly destroyed those two layers of shields with just a single jolt.

Looks 'eggs' as big as a human are exposed right in front of him. It was as clear as silver and looked extremely lustrous like a gemstone. The silver light shining all around put pressure on Jian Wu, as if giving him a warning not to get close.

But Jian Wu did not care. He only needed Xie Ran's physical body, not his soul. It didn't matter if he just killed a developing soul and thwarted its evolution. If he let Xie Ran finish the evolution, everything would be over.

His steps drew closer, a light sword grasped in his hand and was unsheathed at maximum speed. The white light faintly looked full of killing intent and slashed it towards the 'egg' that was about to hatch it.

However, suddenly the silver light around gave an even greater impact of the attack causing Jian Wu to crash. The silver light danced in the air, fading the 'egg' look until Jian Wu's entire gaze was filled with silver rays.

Jian Wu immediately rushed away, thinking something big was about to happen. He was not Xie Ran's opponent, hence could only ask Bai Long's help to clear him up immediately.

On Bai Long's side, Ann Rou and Dou Dou had been stalling for too long until their bodies were covered in wounds. Ann Rou in the form of a three-tailed cat crashed and almost splashed into the lava if her tail was not pulled Dou Dou using her teeth.

Dou Dou was in the form of a bloody moon wolf, his eyes were blood-red with full black fur making him look like a wild wolf. Plus his teeth biting on Ann Rou's white tail, he looked like he was going to devour the poor cat.

"Deliver!" Ann Rou meowed very fiercely as if wanting to tear apart a Dou Dou. Just watch his tail break off again, he will kill a Dou Dou!

Dou Dou could not take off Ann Rou when right below her was a sea of lava. He threw Ann Rou just up the mountain until mired in the rocks .... The desire to curse became very high.

Because Ann Rou had been thrown onto those hot rocks by a Dou Dou, Bai Long became to have the chance of hitting a stupid Dou Dou until the poor wolf howled very hard and fell almost hitting Ann Rou.

Really, they could no longer fight in such a miserable state.

But Xie Ran's condition was still not certain. Ann Rou immediately pulled out a Dou Dou with her claws and pressed down on a Dou Dou stomach until the wolf howled again.

"Miss Xie is still not finished, do you want to die!" Ann Rou scolded ferociously, then jumped up to continue the attack.

His body stiffened when he saw Bai Long with his lightning speed approaching Xie Ran after hearing Jian Wu's explanation. They both quickly chased.

"Miss Xie, be careful!" Dou Dou howled loudly hoping that Xie Ran would wake up after hearing his howl.

And sure enough, just as a loud howl echoed throughout the entire Lava Continent, the blue iris with the pointy pupil opened. His gaze immediately found a flash of silver light striking until his figure disappeared like lightning dodging a glance.

The silver light hit the ground until the lava again spread covering the entire area of dry land accompanied by a huge explosion. Even Jian Wu who was a few meters away was hit by the effects of the attack so had to teleport to a safe place in the air.

Jian Wu sighed. Bai Long's attack was not playful, even he barely survived. It makes no sense that Xie Ran still survived. That girl should be dead.

Thinking of this made Jian Wu calm down. But that calmness did not last long. His back felt blown with cold air when he sensed the presence of someone behind him, a figure so strong and large that he felt like an ant in front of him.

When Jian Wu turned his head, he found the huge body of a white dragon. It was as big as Bai Long, yet it had a much different aura than Bai Long. Just by looking, he could confirm it was only a soul, but somehow that soul felt like a real body gave it goosebumps.

...----------------...

...----------------...

"It can't be ...." Jian Wu regained his senses from his reflection. If not wrong, there are only two such Heavenly Dragons in this world. Other than Bai Long, there was only Xie Ran!

He looked towards Bai Long, asking for help from him. But Bai Long was instead stunned to see the other party who looked stronger than him. Just a soul, he's not a real dragon!

"Xie Ran, you didn't disappoint me." Bai Long said with great pressure. "But even so, you can only become a temporary dragon. You're just a weak man!"

"Oh, huh?" The dragon soul that was none other than Xie Ran was chuckling as it squeezed Jian Wu's body tighter and tighter until Jian Wu felt his entire fragile bones crumble. Xie Ran continued, "Unfortunately, I am a dragon."

Xie Ran threw the crumbling Jian Wu into the lava so that no one could find it. He launched an attack towards Bai Long with a silver glow that caused the Lava Peak to further disintegrate.

The dragons fighting against the demons were stunned for a while looking at Xie Ran's appearance. They were getting excited, it was their leader! Their queen!

Heavenly Dragons were rare things, let alone dragons with great divine power. With just a single look, they already knew who their original leader was and grew even more excited about eradicating the troublemaking demons.

Long Ying and Long Yun were even more pleased. They helped Xiao Caihong who 'play' on the lava with the demons and wiped out the demons faster. They told Xiao Caihong to help Pei Xi and the others in the Dark Region, Xiao Caihong immediately darted to the location.

Xie Ran and Bai Long again entered a complicated battle. But this time, Xie Ran outperformed the battle because of his divine power that surpassed the original form of the dragon. Although he was merely a soul and could not use any other magic, he could use divine power fused with his soul.

Bai Long's white body was covered in wounds from Xie Ran's ferocious attack. Xie Ran's claws continued to tear at Bai Long's skin as his long body stretched out. Although Bai Long was a little bigger, Xie Ran could still match him by relying on the limitations of space.

A small body would be advantageous when it was in a narrow space, not with Bai Long having limited movement plus lava underneath. He flew into the air looking for the widest field, but Xie Ran bit his tail and threw it into the lava.

Bai Long had barely fallen into the lava, but Xie Ran's claws held his body and carried him to the sky higher. Xie Ran will not make things any easier.

"Xie Ruo's! You're outrageous!" Bai Long was overwhelmed by the power of Xie Ran being stronger than him. The white light continued to pierce through his body until he felt it had been dismembered in the air.

Xie Ran launched a silver ball of light from his claws to make Bai Long bounce off the mountain. His tail splashed into the lava until Bai Long roared in pain.

Not stopping there, Xie Ran stomped on his body with claws until the hot lava crept onto the dry ground as soon as it felt on Bai Long's body, as if he was roasted on a grill.

"You want to kill an entire dragon, isn't that too outrageous?" reply Xie Ran, looking at Bai Long with disdain.

He returned to his human form, then used a sword technique so that a sword shadow so large appeared, then Bai Long's body was stuck in the sword shadow until a deafening roar sounded.

"Didn't it feel satisfying?"

Xie Ran gave a fleeting smile as he walked along Bai Long's long body.

"I was wondering, how do you know that, who are you?" Xie Ran lowered his head before Bai Long's eyes, looking into his eyes straight away with great demands.

"My mother's name is Wen Ya." Bai Long spoke briefly, while enduring the race of pain in his body.

Xie Ran was silent for a while, rethinking the story Bai Long had said before. Wen Xi had a sister, coincidentally her mother surname Bai Long was also Wen. Was Wen Ya the brother in question? The daughter that her own father threw out?

Doesn't that mean, Bai Long is his cousin?

"You know now." Bai Long chuckled. "The Dragon God was very favoritism, my mother was expelled for marrying my father who was an ordinary dragon. But she kept thinking about her youngest daughter who had married a lowly human, even getting rid of you for the sake of a useless child. If only you had no relationship with the Celestial Emperor, 'he' wouldn't have found out, and I would never have known about this."

"The Dragon God ...." Xie Ran finally understood how he could have the strongest dragon aura as well as the Heavenly Dragon form. The Dragon God himself is the Heavenly Dragon— Long Yun said, he had never thought of this before.

Then his divinity had been specially prepared for him through Xie Jin. Xie Jin took care of Wen Xi, automatically a confidant of the Dragon God. Plus, Xie Jin was also a confidant of the Celestial Emperor in the past.

He was sent to another world as Isabella, there must have been the intervention of the Celestial Emperor before. His return to this world also came from the intervention of the previous Celestial Emperor. His ancestor ... how many old people are hiding? In the end, all of this was just someone's game. Is he here right now also including the count?

"Xie Ruo, in the end you're just someone's game. I want to get out of this game, that's why I'm on 'her' side to oppose everything. I was also forced to destroy the Lava Continent."

"Who's 'him'?"

"You'll know when it's time. You just need to know, 'he' is not something that even Asura can handle. All these wars, coming from 'he' is behind the scenes."

Xie Ran chuckled. "You don't even know, do you?"

"You have that chance, if you live long enough." Bai Long laughed amusedly. "Even your age can't reach 30, isn't it very sad? You, Wen Xi, and Xie Ran, are both pitiful."

"You are the sad one. At first I wanted to forgive you, but you know too much. Know it? Knowing too much won't make you grow old."

At the moment when Xie Ran's voice fell on Bai Long's ear, the earthquake in the volcano became a rage. The effect of their battle greatly affected the liveliness of the volcano to the point of causing a great shock that even the dragons could not avoid.

The dragons were running away, Long Yun and Long Ying wanted to take Xie Ran, but Xie Ran had already disappeared with Bai Long out of nowhere.

Xie Ran carried Bai Long into the belly of the volcano which had been filled with explosions and lava. He was fireproof, but not with Bai Long so Bai Long continued to roar feeling the heat of the flames devouring his body.

"Xie Ruo, you want to kill yourself!" Bai Long tried to run away, but the girth of Xie Ran's strength had exceeded his limits plus his deteriorating injuries.

"Don't you want all this? I'll give it to you."

The silver light wrapped around Bai Long's huge body and threw him onto the sacrificial altar filled with lava. Bai Long cried out in pain, his white skin blackened and melted due to the lava that continued to corrode his skin.

"Xie Ruo, we have a blood relation, how can you be so cruel!"

"Cruel? Then, how do you want to rip apart my soul and hand Xie Ran's body to your master!"

Silver light continued to envelop the entire altar. He severed all ties with the other altar branches that would blow up the entire Lava Continent, according to the original plan.

He had sent a message via voice transmission to Long Yun and Long Ying. He asked them to come from Lava Peak with another dragon. Lava Peak must be empty to kill those demons. Unfortunately, Yu Zainan was in the Dark Territory.

After the formation core was fixed to its will, it released Bai Long, but the dragon was completely immobile as it had been dying on the boiling lava.

Xie Ran did not care anymore. He only looked at all the deaths in silence, letting his eyes reflect the blaze of explosions right in front of him. The explosions continued to grow, flames devouring the entire Lava Peak with a single burst accompanied by a great shock.

The dragons scattered to escape to the Dark Region which was the safest place. The great earthquake continued to shake the entire Lava Continent. Lava continues to propagate to various regions forming river flows until it falls into sea water.

Lava Peak, completely abolished ....
