But even so, the Green Flood Dragon still did not show its head, truly displaying an unwavering calm.
"Something is amiss! There could be deceit involved!"
By Zhou Chun's side, Zhou Daoyi suddenly changed his expression and shouted aloud.
Hearing this, Zhou Chun was also startled and quickly asked, "Clan Leader, what have you noticed? What's amiss?"
Unexpectedly, Zhou Daoyi sold him short, merely shaking his head repeatedly and saying, "It's hard to say, indescribable, keep watching and you'll know!"
This made Zhou Chun feel rather disappointed in his heart.
But not daring to ask further, he could only suppress his confusion and continue to watch.
He saw that on the Flood Dragon Nest's side, the man in yellow was still continuously attacking the mountain, swiftly collapsing and destroying much of the peak, completely blocking the entrance to the Flood Dragon Nest.
It appeared as though he truly intended to bury the Green Flood Dragon alive!
But just at that moment, the water level in a pond dozens of miles behind the Flood Dragon Nest started to drop rapidly, quickly emptying by a great amount.
Then, the colossal body of the Green Flood Dragon shot out from beneath the water and flew into the sky.
It turned out that there was another secret passage leading from the Flood Dragon Nest to this pond!
First, the Dark Flood Dragon had broken out to distract the five Green Lotus Temple Purple Mansion Cultivators.
Then, it stalled for time, waiting for the hidden Yunzhou Purple Mansion Cultivators to reveal themselves.
Lastly, while those Yunzhou Purple Mansion Cultivators' attention was focused on the entrance to the Flood Dragon Nest, it drove out its Water Demon servants to attract their attention, meanwhile silently clearing a waterway, to make a surprise escape from the lair through the secret passage.
Who says Demon Beasts lack intelligence?
Who says Demon Beasts do not understand tactics?
High-level Demon Beasts, especially Flood Dragons with both tremendous strength and intelligence, are simply incomparable to ordinary beasts!
If nothing unexpected happened, the Green Flood Dragon's feint would have been a perfect tactical performance.
But the unexpected did occur.
Or rather, it wasn't an accident but another scheme.
Someone had already seen through the Green Flood Dragon's plans and located it the moment it showed itself.
At that time, the Green Flood Dragon had just soared out from the pond, ready to ride the winds and clouds to escape the area.
Suddenly, a dark green chain flew out from a nearby forest, breaking through the air.
Like a lurking venomous snake, it instantly wrapped around the Flood Dragon's body.
In an instant, the Green Flood Dragon felt a tight constriction all over, and its strength and Mana were mysteriously suppressed and weakened by a strange force, leaving it unable to exert its power.
This situation filled it with terror, and it immediately erupted with all its might, violently struggling to break free of the chains binding it.
But having just laid a Dragon Egg, its body was at its weakest, with both its Mana and physical strength not matching its previous state.
How could it break free from these chains, specially designed to target the Flood Dragon Clan, so quickly?
The commotion here also promptly attracted the attention of those Yunzhou Purple Mansion Cultivators.
"Over there! Someone has beaten us to it!"
The man in yellow, still busily demolishing the mountain, turned livid with rage and quickly retracted his magic staff artifact, flying rapidly towards where the Green Flood Dragon was.
But if the person behind the chains had taken action, how could they give them a chance?
A figure flashed in the forest, and two figures, one green and one red, leaped into the air, quickly starting to besiege the Green Flood Dragon.
Both people wore Flood Dragon Masks on their faces, concealing their age and features, but from the shapely figure of the person in red robes, it should be a female Cultivator.
Both of them, like the Green Lotus Temple Cultivators, had the person in green robes control the chain magic artifact, restricting the Green Flood Dragon's movements and ability to exert its power.
The female Cultivator in red robes took on the main offensive role.
The artifact she wielded was a crimson-gold beheading blade artifact, and with the first slash, it tore open a massive wound on the Green Flood Dragon's body, almost severing it into two halves!
Such ferocious power chilled even the Yunzhou Purple Mansion Cultivators rushing towards the site, sending shivers down their spines.
His speed involuntarily slowed down a bit.
However, what was unexpected was that after almost cleaving the Green Flood Dragon with a single strike, the red-robed female cultivator didn't follow through with a second strike.
Instead, she held the sword aloft without releasing it, hovering above the Green Flood Dragon, as the cultivator in green spoke in the language of beasts, communicating with it.
It seemed that their goal was not to slay the Green Flood Dragon.
But just as the cultivator in green was communicating with the Green Flood Dragon, an accident occurred!
Or perhaps it wasn't an accident, but rather a well-prepared plot.
From within the forest, three Green Lotus Temple Purple Mansion Cultivators who had been lying in wait suddenly leaped into the air and quickly arrived near the battlefield.
The appearance of these three caused both the Green Flood Dragon and the two cultivators wearing Flood Dragon masks to change color simultaneously, halting their conversation abruptly.
"Junior Brother Chen wasn't wrong; you remnants of the Dragon Transformation Sect have indeed made a comeback and caused trouble in Jingguo Country!"
In the sky, a red-robed daoist with graying hair looked coldly at the two people and one dragon opposite him, his words filled with anger.
Dragon Transformation Sect?
Hearing the words of the red-robed daoist, several of the Purple Mansion Cultivators from Yunzhou who had arrived nearby were taken aback.
Then the Supreme Elder of the Lu Family from Mingjian Mountain, Lu Jianqiu, as if recalling something shocking, couldn't help but blurt out with a changed expression, "Wasn't the Dragon Transformation Sect annihilated over eight hundred years ago? How can there still be people alive!"
His tone was full of surprise and laced with a hint of fear.
Hearing his words, the other cultivators who had not yet grasped the significance of the term "Dragon Transformation Sect" instantly understood.
All at once, their gazes toward the two wearing Flood Dragon masks became strange.
As the conversation of these people was not concealed from others, many cultivators who were not far away also overheard their words.
But even some Foundation Establishment Stage cultivators, after hearing these words, were still baffled, not grasping what riddle these Purple Mansion Phase Cultivators were playing at.
Zhou Chun and Zhou Daoyi, being too far away, hadn't managed to hear the others' discussions in time.
But when the two wearing Flood Dragon masks appeared, Zhou Daoyi, as if recognizing their origins through their unique attire, muttered under his breath, "So it really is them."
"What do you mean, 'so it really is them'? Clan Leader, do you know those two elders?"
Zhou Chun looked at his clan leader with a puzzled expression, his eyes full of curiosity.
"It's nothing; I'll tell you after this is over!"
Zhou Daoyi shook his head, showing no intention of satisfying Zhou Chun's curiosity right then.
Without waiting for Zhou Chun to ask further, he quickly grabbed Zhou Chun and said, "Let's move in closer."
He then led Zhou Chun closer to the new battlefield.
On the other side, after the identities of the two wearing Flood Dragon masks had been revealed,
the three Green Lotus Temple Cultivators quickly invited the three Purple Mansion Cultivators from Yunzhou to join forces against the two Dragon Transformation Sect cultivators.
Of course, 'invitation' is a polite term; what they actually meant was a conscription.
At this moment, the three Green Lotus Temple Purple Mansion Cultivators had exercised their sect's wartime conscription rights over the subordinate cultivation families within the territory, enlisting family cultivators to face a powerful external enemy.
The three Purple Mansion Cultivators from Yunzhou, also aware of the Dragon Transformation Sect's dark history, offered no objections to this conscription.
And so, very quickly, six Purple Mansion Cultivators moved to encircle the two people and one dragon, intent on capturing them all!
This change of events quickly prompted a compromise between the Green Flood Dragon and the two Dragon Transformation Sect cultivators.
After a rapid exchange between the Green Flood Dragon and the green-clad cultivator, the latter retracted the chain Magic Artifact that had bound the Green Flood Dragon and even took out a jade bottle from his Storage Pouch and threw it to the Green Flood Dragon, which it swallowed in one gulp.
Then the two Dragon Transformation Sect cultivators and the Green Flood Dragon broke through together in a certain direction.
"Where do you think you're escaping to!"
The gray-haired red-robed elder chanted a fierce shout and, with a wave of his hand, threw a flaming collar Magic Artifact towards the Green Flood Dragon.
At the same time, the other Purple Mansion Cultivators also brandished their signature Magic Artifacts and attacked the two people and one dragon, blocking their escape.
The sky was swiftly ablaze with a myriad of spiritual lights, and battle ensued.
