Chapter 1260: Chain Man’s Moment

Translator: alyschu

Bang!

Lin Qian’s cheeks looked slightly crumpled, but he cackled. "Jiejie! I recognize you! It’s been a hundred thousand years, and you are as impulsive as ever, young dragon knight!"

With a hateful expression, Dragon Knight Captain Callan wrapped his chains around Lin Qian’s neck, let out a full-throated roar and pulled, causing bloody imprints immediately. Obviously, the human neck wasn’t made to be twisted like this.

"You are courting death!"

Lin Qian let out a cold snort and raised his foot suddenly. He managed to kick Callan on the back and sent him flying into the air. Right after that, Lin Qian bounced to his feet, launched himself into the air and swung his sword in an attempt to cleave Callan in half.

Chiang!

Callan raised his chains, and sparks exploded where metal met metal. Then, Callan retaliated by making his chains snap toward his opponent like venomous snakes. He was able to deal a mighty blow to Lin Qian’s chest!

Bang!

4287272!

A huge damage number rose above Lin Qian’s head. As usual, battles between NPCs were absolutely ridiculous. Every hit usually deleted a huge chunk of HP.

……

Thud thud thud…

Lin Qian’s boots crushed the earth as he backed away from Callan. Still wearing a malicious grin on his face, he gave his wavering blade a swing before yelling, "Come and taste my Rising Dragon Strike!"

Draconic energy took form, but it was as black as sin in Lin Qian’s hands. He fired the energy straight at Callan.

Swhoosh!

Eyes filled with astonishment, Callan took a step backward and swung his 17 chains as quickly as he could. He was able to create a powerful hurricane of chains that dispelled the draconic blast completely. It was amazing how powerful he had become considering that he had basically imprisoned himself for a hundred thousand years.

However, the moment the hurricane of chains came to a stop, a black hand pressed against his back before he could do anything. Lin Qian chuckled maliciously and said, "Goodbye, dragon knight! Dragon Binding Spell!"

The image of a golden dragon let out a roar, and the spell bound Callan instantly!

The binding was only temporary, but it was more than enough for Lin Qian to capitalize on it. He raised the Dragonslaying Sword, jumped at least a dozen or so meters above ground, and brought it down in one mighty swing!

Crack!

Poor Callan lost his arm just like that. Black blood poured profusely from his wound, but he withstood the pain and turned on his feet, flooding his 17 chains with great power. The next moment, they moved as if they had a mind of their own and punched right through Lin Qian’s chest. Somehow, Callan was able to make it an even exchange.

……

Chiang!

Lin Qian cut off the chains as quickly as he could before backing away from Callan. He looked terrible, and he only had less than 10% HP left. His eyes shone with viciousness as he growled, "Dammit! I knew this body couldn’t unleash my strength completely! I need to find a stronger body!"

"Hah, hah, hah…"

Callan breathed heavily as he dropped to one knee. A while later, he looked up and yelled harshly, "You damned monster! Who are you? How are you able to use the Rising Dragon Strike and Dragon Binding Spell? Only the Dragon Speakers are supposed to know those skills! Speak now!"

Lin Qian cackled loudly and disdainfully. "Who am I? In a previous life, I was both a Dragon Speaker and the ruler of death! My name… was Mingyu!"

"You are the 24th Dragon Speaker… the Abyss of Destruction!?"

Callan’s complexion turned deathly white. "Im… impossible! Lady Binglan had personally slain the Abyss of Destruction during the Battle of Sainthelm City! He is dead! Dead! Lady Binglan has never slipped up, she…"

However, Lin Qian raised his head and let out a mad cackle. "That traitorous girl thought she killed me, but she didn’t notice that my soul had slipped into the Dragonslaying Sword! After she sealed the Great Saint’s spirituality, I immediately took control of the Dragonslaying Sword and flew back to Dragon Domain! Of course, I hadn’t returned to save Dragon Domain. I merely wanted to continue my cultivation and break out of my material prison one day!"

He then pointed at his own body while chuckling. "Some time later, this foolish prince and his three mentors arrived to claim the Dragonslaying Sword. He was so obsessed with power that he didn’t notice the danger until it was too late. After I devoured his soul and turned him into a puppet of power, I made him kill his own three mentors. Today, I’ve finally gained enough soul power to take full control of this body. Unfortunately, it looks like this body is too weak to withstand my power. I have to keep at least two-thirds of my power suppressed so that it doesn’t destroy itself, or you would’ve died a long time ago, Dragon Knight Captain Callan!"

Callan kept shuddering violently without saying anything.

Pa!

Mingyu pulled out the Dragonslaying Sword from the ground and slowly stepped toward Callan. Despite the pain on his chest, he smiled cruelly and said, "Now, allow me to end your painful life. Surely it is an honor to die by my hands, a former Dragon Speaker? When you are in hell, remember to tell Binglan that I said hi!"

However, Callan looked up with eyes that burned with fury and determination. "Go fuck yourself! Lady Binglan is eternal! Even if she somehow falls to the Purgatory, she will still rule as its sovereign, become the defender of humanity’s justice and the slayer of all evil spirits!"

"Justice? Pooh!"

Mingyu spat disdainfully. "Who on the Heavenblessed Continent will risk their lives for such an ephemeral thing?"

Callan declared without hesitation, "I will!"

Callan charged and launched a furious assault before he finished his words. Although his 17 chains had been cleaved in half by Mingyu, they still moved like they were alive and dealt many blows to the villain. Of course, Mingyu’s counterattacks were even deadlier because he was wielding the Dragonslaying Sword. Callan’s armor had already been crumbling in the first place, and now it couldn’t even provide its wearer any semblance of protection whatsoever.

The sky darkened, and astral winds surged at the center of the battlefield as the two Quasi-Divine Rank experts dueled each other. The battle was so fierce and epic that even the players who were playing the oriole had completely forgotten about their objective for a time.

……

"Damn, the chained man is so strong…" Lin Yixin sighed. "Unfortunately, it looks like he’s no match for Lin Qian. For starters, his weapon is way lousier than his opponent’s…"

He Yi agreed. "Yeah, he’s probably going to lose at this rate."

However, I shook my head and said, "No, Callan’s willpower far exceeds his opponent’s. Mingyu simply wants to further his ambition, but Callan is fighting to protect his master’s honor and the entire Dragon Domain. When a person fights to protect something, the power they unleash is not something mere ambition can possibly hope to match."

Murong Mingyue nodded heavily. "Lu Chen is right. It is just like when we resolved to protect Ancient Sword Dreaming Souls back then. We gave it our all, and we regretted nothing."

……

As if he was trying to prove the truth of our words, Callan whipped his chains across Lin Qian’s neck and left a wound so deep that I could literally see the bones inside of it. If he was even a bit stronger, he might have been able to send his entire head flying.

Swhoosh swhoosh!

Mingyu skidded across the ground for a very long time before he finally came to a stop. Coughing profusely, bleeding and kneeling on one knee, it looked like he was swiftly approaching his limits.

"No… no! It cannot end like this! There is no way I cannot beat a mere dragon knight! This pathetic body…" Mingyu lamented.

Dragging his heavy chains behind him, Callan slowly walked toward Mingyu with a determined expression. "Lady Binglan may have failed to kill you back then, but that is fine. It so happens that I invented Soul Refining Curse during my hellish years of cultivation that is perfect for this occasion. You can be the most powerful man in the world, but today will be your doomsday no matter what! Now repent before the once-good Dragon God!"

Mingyu simply looked up and spat at him. "Pooh!"

……

However, right before Callan was about to land the final blow, a new aura suddenly appeared from the sky. It was bloody and evil, and it was accompanied by a savage roar, "Jiejie! I was wondering who it was! To think that the former dragon knight captain would return to this world! Come, Callan! Michael challenges you to a duel!"

Callan hurriedly turned around, but he was too late to stop the attack.

Left arm overflowing with thunderous energy, Michael brought his claws down right on top of Callan’s thigh. He was able to cut right through the flesh and bone thanks to the powerful penetration ability of the lightning element.

"Gah…"

Callan let out a painful cry and wobbled unsteadily on his one leg. However, he was able to retaliate by whipping Michael’s back with his chains and rending the flesh open.

Still, the injury Michael suffered was nothing compared to the injury he suffered. Mingyu had taken his arm moments earlier, and now Michael took his leg. His ability to fight had been almost completely robbed away.

……

After Michael landed, he touched the wound behind his back and cackled. "Is this all you got, Callan?"

Callan simply glared at his attacker from the ground and said nothing.

"Ugh…"

Suddenly, Mingyu let out a suppressed groan that caused Michael’s head to swivel toward him like a fan.

He shuddered from head to toe before exclaiming in shock, "This familiar aura. Heavens! Is… is it you, Lord Mingyu?"

Mingyu grinned. "We meet again, Michael!"

Michael couldn’t control himself. He immediately jumped in front of Mingyu before kneeling on both knees. Trembling with agitation, he said, "Michael apologizes for his failure, Lord Mingyu. To think that I would be able to see you again after tens of thousands of years…"

Mingyu smiled at his subordinate before saying, "There is no need for words, Michael. Now, kill Callan!"

"Yes, my lord!"

……

Chiang!

I abruptly unsheathed the Chill of the Nine Provinces and declared, "No more waiting. I won’t let a great man like Callan die in Michael’s hands. Guanyue, buff me with everything you’ve got!"

Lin Yixin also readied her Dragonfrost and declared, "I’m coming with you!"
