From Secret Clan to the Divine Dynasty

Chapter 243: Chapter 233 "Dragon Taming Lord

The flames that burned the sins had long since turned to ashes. The elderly Bast Leone lay with his eyes closed, serenely amongst the myriad of flowers strewn on the ground. Delicate petals swayed gently in the fog, releasing their enchanting fragrance, a sea of flowers where roses, tulips, jasmines, and other varieties interwoven with dazzling colors, filled with vividness and vitality.

Byrne sat on the ground in silence for a long time, his thoughts more chaotic than ever before. Bast Leone was right; the real reason he killed him wasn't because of his father's vengeance but because Bast Leone would inevitably pose a threat to the Fischer family in the future.

So he had struck first.

Although from an outsider's perspective, avenging his father was the natural course of action, only Byrne knew deep within his heart that today's events stemmed from a choice between family and emotions.

He slowly stood up, took a deep breath, and suddenly found that he couldn't stop the tears flowing down his cheeks.

For some reason, Byrne realized they were the last tears he would ever shed.

Then, he calmly found the severely injured Chris and Marzo, took out potions to heal them, and proceeded to take away various Forbidden rare artifacts belonging to Bast Leone.

The first was that frequently seen black mirror.

It was a Forbidden rare artifact that Viscount Bast had used multiple times, capable not just of bewitching a specific person but also of serving as a conduit to the Spirit Realm, leading to the land of the Alchemy Council, and even separating into fragments to give to others. It could be said to have many significant functions.

Next was the extremely large black giant sword, which Byrne even suspected weighed several tons—likely impossible for an ordinary Extraordinary Exponent to wield proficiently.

"So heavy."

When Byrne actually picked up the giant sword, it automatically shrank, eventually becoming the size of a chopstick. No wonder Viscount Bast had carried it all this time without anyone detecting its presence.

After securing the two Forbidden rare artifacts, Byrne quickly searched the bodies of the Stars Embrace Order's followers, eventually taking two Treasure-class mysterious rare artifacts from the second-in-command's body.

"Where is Aldrich?"

Marzo's hair was disheveled, yet she still looked absolutely gorgeous, and she shook her head calmly, "I don't know. I never caught sight of him."

She paused before continuing:

"This valley is shrouded in mystery. I was right beside you, but suddenly I was transported elsewhere. I believe it might at regular intervals undergo random relocations in time and space."

"Had I not previously planted a harmless seed on you, I'm afraid I never would have found you."

Byrne glanced at Marzo, nodded gently, and then turned to look seriously at the silent Chris.

"Chris, why did you conspire with the followers of the Stars Embrace Order?"

Chris answered, "Otherwise, there would be no chance, and it wouldn't have ended well."

His response left Byrne speechless, forced to admit that it made sense.

Indeed, without the people of the Stars Embrace Order, it would have been very difficult to bring the matter to a close, and they wouldn't have been able to explain Viscount Bast's death.

But once the followers of the Stars Embrace Order arrived, everything became much easier to explain.

Chris's strategy was successful, but Zayne Frosac might suffer as a result, which made Byrne feel uneasy deep inside.

However, after contemplating the situation, Byrne didn't say much or reproach Chris, merely nodding gently.

After dealing with Viscount Bast's body and faking injuries, they left the place.

"Let's go, I hope Zayne isn't in trouble," Byrne said slowly.

The three of them then moved together, and to prevent anyone from being unexpectedly transported away again, they proceeded hand in hand.

After an unknown period, they occasionally encountered stray followers of the Stars Embrace Order and killed them without hesitation, but they never found the Dragon Taming Lord or Zayne Frosac. Instead, they ultimately stumbled upon the body of Renzo.

Renzo's corpse was in bad shape, battered and lifeless, lying there with eyes wide open.

"Renzo is also dead..."

Byrne was silent for a moment before adding, "The followers of the Stars Embrace Order who claimed to have killed a Cyart noble, it must have been him. Zayne and Aldrich are probably still alive."

"At least we haven't found their bodies."

Chris said calmly, "I still hope nobody is capable of killing the 'Dragon Taming Lord.'"

Everyone fell silent. If such a powerful existence did appear, they would be completely unable to contend with it.

All the mysterious rare artifacts on Renzo's body had been taken, so they continued moving forward, not knowing how long they walked, never reaching the end of the white fog.

They even began to wonder if this white fog was infinite when suddenly, without warning, the surrounding fog began to disperse gradually, revealing White Bones Canyon before their eyes again, and the three of them simultaneously let out a sigh of relief.

Then they heard a very loud noise.

After the dense white fog had dispersed, the area of White Bones Canyon seemed to have shrunk suddenly, and the three of them saw a terrifying scene ahead.

"There!" Marzo raised her beautiful neck and immediately shouted.

A battle between two Monarch powerful experts!

The young man dressed in the black garb of the Stars Embrace Order, who was obviously the leader of this group of heretics, possessed the power of a wind bloodline, constantly compressing the wild winds around him into massive shockwaves that destroyed everything before him.

The terrifying wild wind, like a raging giant beast, swept in, howling as it scoured the white ground, carrying endless might and destructive force; the jade-made trees swayed uncertainly under this rampage, like a ship tossing on tumultuous waves.

When Byrne and the others faced the residual power of the wind, they had no choice but to close their eyes tightly, trembling all over, as if facing the end-of-days scenario of the sky falling, appearing exceptionally small and incredibly fragile, as if confronting the merciless fury of nature.

"So powerful!"

Byrne couldn't help but sigh; each strike was massively powerful, and a direct attack would suffice to kill him outright.

However, the Stars Embrace Order man was completely suppressed by the "Dragon Taming Lord" Aldrich!

A black dragon, and a red dragon, both flanked "Dragon Taming Lord" Aldrich, and both giants possessed the strength of low-level Monarch Level!

Although the extraordinary power of mysterious creatures was much weaker than that of Extraordinary Exponents of the same level, the two Monarch Level giant dragons could still rival a truly powerful low-level Monarch expert!

The fearsome giant dragons were like moving mountains, their huge bodies covered in thick and smooth scales that reflected the sunlight with a grim metallic luster.

Their eyes were bright and seemed to peer into the depths of the soul; their claws were like iron hooks, capable of tearing apart rocks. With every landing of their massive claws, the ground would tremble continuously.

"Wuu!"

The red dragon breathed out searing flames, burning fiercely, showcasing the power of raging flames of destruction!

"Arrgh!"

When the black dragon roared, the entire valley trembled, leaving behind a trace of desolation and silence in its wake.

The presence of the two hundred-meter-long dragons, along with their extremely terrifying dragon might, made Byrne and the others' bodies subconsciously shudder helplessly.

"Troublesome false god followers, Cyart's cold-blooded nobility!"

The leader of the Stars Embrace Order looked very serious, Summoning the terrifying wind shockwaves, again and again, trying to destroy Aldrich, but he was never able to break through the defensive power of the two powerful dragons, instead having to constantly dodge attacks, avoiding flames and sharp claws.

Finally, he decided to use the temporary power bestowed by the otherworldly god "Chaos Constellation."

That power could only be used once, it had to be used at the right moment!

The man muttered to himself, raising his hands high!

Black shadows suddenly emerged in mid-air, as if about to open a gate, and the indescribable aura instantly made everyone tense, even Aldrich's eyes sharpened in an instant!

However, the "Dragon Taming Lord" gave him no chance to continue, stretching out his hand without hesitation, and then the rings of his two Forbidden rare artifacts lit up simultaneously.

The next moment, a grey light petrified the body of the leader of the Stars Embrace Order completely to stone, followed by a phantom hammer shadow, as mighty as a fist of a god, which descended from the sky and in an instant, utterly pulverized the petrified leader of the Stars Embrace Order into dust!

Aldrich, having used two Forbidden rare artifacts, had his hair turn slightly white and calmly coughed up a mouthful of fresh blood, but quickly transformed it with spiritual power and repaired the injuries within his body.

"You've worked hard."

He waved his hand calmly, the two dreadful dragons nodded gently, and then they disappeared into thin air the next moment.

With a flicker of wisdom in his eyes, Aldrich walked calmly through mid-air, stepping steadily towards the three who had been watching the battle on the ground.

"Have you seen others?"

Byrne nodded slightly, walking up with a serious expression and said,

"We didn't find Zayne, but we saw the bodies of Renzo Leone and Bast Leone..."

"Dragon Taming Lord" Aldrich suddenly looked up, gazing into Byrne's eyes for a long while before saying in a low voice, "Byrne, who killed Bast Leone?"
