Everyone was startled by what Qi Yan said.
Killed?!
This is the legendary Giant Dragon!
A single Giant Dragon could destroy a nation; they used to think that was an exaggeration, but after witnessing it firsthand today, they realized it wasn't an exaggeration, it was a fact.
The purple-haired youth still watched Qi Yan with interest, completely unconcerned by what Qi Yan had said.
Many humans are incompetent braggarts.
In his opinion, these words were just the impotent barks of insects.
"So... when are you going to put down my client?"
Qi Yan looked at the purple-haired youth and said calmly.
Hearing this, the purple-haired youth's lips curled slightly, and he clasped the King's neck with his right hand, lifting him high.
He looked at Qi Yan playfully and said, "If you have the ability, then come and get him yourself."
"Since that's the case, I won't be polite."
Qi Yan slowly drew his sword and then stepped towards the purple-haired youth.
The purple-haired youth had already planned out the next scene: he would let this human attack him, make him understand the vast difference between humans and Giant Dragons, and then, right in front of him, crush this King like an ant. Yes, that's what he would do. Humans are, after all, like ants to Giant Dragons.
Qi Yan soon reached the purple-haired youth and casually swung his sword towards the purple-haired youth's wrist. His speed was neither fast nor slow, just like the most ordinary sword swing.
The purple-haired youth didn't care at all. What kind of damage could such a slow sword swing cause?
But just as Qi Yan's blade touched his skin, he suddenly felt his hair stand on end. He instinctively sensed a terrifying danger.
The purple-haired youth immediately let go of the King and rapidly retreated, his feet sliding dozens of meters on the ground to put distance between himself and Qi Yan. At the same time, his eyes reverted to beast-like vertical pupils, staring intently at Qi Yan, as if he had seen some dangerous individual.
"What?!"
"What happened?!"
"That monster actually retreated?!"
"It didn't even dodge Arthur's strongest ultimate move just now, yet it was scared into retreating by Mr. Qi Yan's unremarkable slash?!" Everyone who saw this scene was somewhat incredulous, after all, they had just seen how terrifying the opponent's defense was. The attacks from His Majesty the King, Arthur, Clay, and Erza had caused no damage to the opponent.
They even thought that humans couldn't cause any harm to Giant Dragons, but the opponent retreated in the face of Qi Yan's attack.
Moreover, judging by its wary demeanor, it clearly sensed danger.
"What a pity!"
Qi Yan shook his head. He had tried his best to suppress all his killing intent, but a Giant Dragon was indeed a Giant Dragon; its instinct to detect danger was extraordinary.
If that guy hadn't retreated just now, he could have chopped off one of its claws.
"You fellow..."
The purple-haired youth's eyes no longer held a playful look, but rather stared at Qi Yan with the gaze one would reserve for an enemy.
Qi Yan ignored the purple-haired youth and instead looked at the somewhat bewildered old King, saying, "Your Majesty, are you alright?"
The King heard Qi Yan's question and finally came back to his senses: "I'm... I'm alright!"
"That's good. If you're alright, please return to the city. I'll take care of this fellow."
The King wanted to say something else, but it clearly wasn't the right time to speak.
"Alright! I'll leave everything to you!"
After speaking, the King loudly gave the order: "Everyone! Retreat to the city!!!"
Hearing the King's command, everyone helped the injured and quickly retreated into the city. Everyone knew that they couldn't help at all here, and might even hinder. To avoid affecting Qi Yan's performance, retreating into the city was the best option.
The purple-haired youth sneered, "What's the use of retreating? These city walls are no different from paper to us Giant Dragons."
"And you, human boy, do you want to be a hero?"
"A hero? I've already been a hero, so what's the harm in being one again?"
"Interesting, kid. When you die, everyone behind you will die too."
"Is that so? Well, there's nothing I can do then. After all, I've tried my best. Perhaps this is fate!"
"In that case, go die!!!"
The purple-haired youth swung his claw, and five massive beast claw slashes flew towards Qi Yan.
The ground where the slashes passed was scraped away like tofu.
Qi Yan tapped his foot, dodging the attack.
Boom boom boom boom boom boom!!!
The slashes hit the city wall, and the hundred-meter-high wall, which had withstood countless years of wind, frost, and monster attacks, shattered like tofu.
The slashes did not stop after destroying the city wall, but continued forward.
In a blink of an eye, they traversed the entire city, only stopping after destroying the wall on the other side.
"The city... has been cut open---!!!"
Everyone looked in horror at the city torn in half, shock and fear uncontrollably spreading in their hearts. Such immense power, such terrifying destructive force, could humans truly contend with such a creature?
"Hey, hey! Fight if you want, but don't destroy other people's property! This is a house someone saved up for half their life and then took out a loan to buy. You just destroyed it like that; didn't they work hard for half their life for nothing?"
"..."
Everyone on the city wall felt speechless hearing this. This wasn't the time to talk about houses.
"Ah! My apologies! But who told these things to be so fragile? Don't worry though, I'll kill them all, so they won't have the pressure of a mortgage anymore."
As the purple-haired youth spoke these words, he sneered and stomped his foot, charging towards Qi Yan. His claw, imbued with Dragon Power, swung at Qi Yan. If this attack connected, the human would be torn to shreds.
"Sun Breathing, Fourth Form, Fake Rainbow!"
Whoosh---!
The purple-haired youth's claw swept past Qi Yan's body.
The sensation of not hitting anything made him slightly stunned. He had seen with his own eyes that he had attacked, yet it was an illusion. Even with his Dragon race vision, he hadn't noticed.
Qi Yan's body appeared at the purple-haired youth's side.
"Sun Breathing, First Form, Waltz!!"
Qi Yan unleashed an arc-shaped Sun Flame slash towards the purple-haired youth's neck. The purple-haired youth's expression changed, and he quickly raised his arm to block.
"Pfft!!"
"Waaahhh!!!"
Blood splattered, and the purple-haired youth let out a scream, his entire body sent flying backward.
Boom boom boom boom boom boom!!
The purple-haired youth's body crashed through tree after tree, finally stopping when he hit a giant tree.
"It's injured!!"
