The Hell Demon Dragon Clan.
This was the territory of the Hell Demon Dragon Clan, a place that no soul beast dared to approach.
It wasn't just because of the fierce power and brutal nature of the Hell Demon Dragons, but also because of their unparalleled leader—Zi Ji!
Ranked ninth among the continent's land soul beasts, she was one of the top five superpower beasts in the Star Dou Forest. Under such circumstances, what soul beast would dare to court death by entering the territory of the Hell Demon Dragon Clan?
"So, this is your territory? It looks pretty nice," Zhao Ming remarked as he surveyed the surroundings. It didn't seem to have the murderous aura he had expected.
"Even rabbits don't eat the grass around their burrows. We wouldn't hunt other soul beasts in our own territory," Zi Ji smiled as she explained.
When Zi Ji smiled, it was captivating, exuding a seductive charm that made one want to conquer her.
Unconsciously, Zhao Ming's grip on Zi Ji's waist tightened.
"Zi Ji, with how beautiful you are, there must be many who pursue you in your clan," Zhao Ming said with a smile, feeling the snake-like curve of her waist and the faint fragrance emanating from her.
Zi Ji's face flushed slightly at his words. How could she openly admit such a thing to Zhao Ming?
In her clan, there were indeed many who admired her, but none of them had ever caught her eye. Even Di Tian, she viewed with disdain.
"Well, that's understandable. Soone as beautiful as you wouldn't settle for just anyone. It would take soone who could rule the world to be worthy of you." Zhao Ming laughed, holding her waist as they continued walking.
Zi Ji froze montarily.
Rule the world.
In this world, only the master might possess such strength. Even soone as powerful as Di Tian could only claim dominance within the Star Dou Forest.
But the master—back in the ancient tis, he had already dominated the soul beast realm. What kind of unparalleled courage was that?
Zi Ji's chest heaved slightly as she imagined Zhao Ming's invincible presence. She felt a wave of excitent that she couldn't calm.
"Clan leader, who is this?"
Suddenly, a cold voice broke the tranquility.
Looking up, Zhao Ming saw a man in black robes. His handso face carried a hint of gloom as he stared at Zhao Ming with hostility.
Seeing this man, Zhao Ming instantly knew he was another Hell Demon Dragon, at least a hundred-thousand-year soul beast, since only those at this level could take human form. His aura was also similar to Zi Ji's.
However, it seed like he had a thing for Zi Ji.
Seeing the way he looked at Zi Ji made Zhao Ming feel displeased.
Even though he hadn't fully won Zi Ji's heart, in his eyes, she was already his.
"How dare you, You Lie, speak to this way." Zi Ji's expression turned cold as she scolded the man.
"I apologize, You Lie was out of line, but who is this?" You Lie quickly acknowledged his mistake but continued to glare at Zhao Ming with intense hostility.
His fierce eyes were filled not only with anger but also with envy.
Zi Ji, as the clan leader and the most beautiful woman of their Hell Demon Dragon Clan, commanded both respect and admiration.
With her strength and allure, it was only natural that many would harbor feelings for her.
You Lie, as the second strongest of the Hell Demon Dragon Clan, a beast with a hundred and twenty thousand years of cultivation, had loved Zi Ji since childhood. He had worked tirelessly to increase his strength, hoping one day to win her heart.
When he broke through the hundred-thousand-year mark, he thought he had his chance and confessed his feelings to Zi Ji, only to be harshly rejected. However, he remained undeterred. He knew that even Di Tian had failed to win her favor.
He still had a chance because he, too, was a formidable mber of the Hell Demon Dragon Clan. Once his cultivation reached two hundred thousand years, surpassing the heavenly tribulation, his strength would match Zi Ji's. At that point, for the sake of the clan's legacy, Zi Ji might accept him, even if she didn't love him.
But now...
His goddess, the beautiful Zi Ji, was being held by soone he didn't recognize.
He couldn't bear it. You Lie's envious and angry gaze fixed on Zhao Ming, and he wanted nothing more than to tear him apart.
"Zi Ji is my woman. What? Do you have a problem with that?" Zhao Ming said dismissively. His hand on Zi Ji's waist slid lower, making You Lie's eyes widen with fury as he wished he could switch places with Zhao Ming.
Feeling Zhao Ming's hand, Zi Ji's face turned a little red.
But she knew it was You Lie who had angered Zhao Ming.
Zi Ji's chest rose and fell as she felt her anger surge toward You Lie. How dare he speak to the master like that? Even she and Di Tian had to show utmost respect to the master, never daring to overstep their bounds. You Lie's insolent attitude—did he not fear bringing disaster upon the Hell Demon Dragon Clan?
"You? Do you think you're worthy of Zi Ji?" You Lie snarled angrily. Hearing Zhao Ming claim Zi Ji as his woman was too much for him. Zi Ji was too beautiful, too powerful—how could she belong to this man?
Overwheld by rage, You Lie prepared to teach Zhao Ming a lesson.
But before he could act, Zi Ji intervened.
A fragrant breeze passed, and Zi Ji transford into a purple-black shadow, swiftly appearing before You Lie and delivering a slap.
"Slap!"
A loud sound echoed as a crimson handprint appeared on You Lie's sullen face.
"You insolent fool. Know your place," Zi Ji said coldly.
You Lie was stunned.
Touching the spot where Zi Ji had struck him, his fury grew. His eyes, once cold, turned blood-red.
"You hit for him? What is he to you? How could he be worthy of you?" You Lie spat, his words growing reckless.
"It seems you still don't know your place." Zi Ji's voice grew colder as she attacked once more.
The energy of heaven and earth surged around her as she transford into a massive purple-black dragon, over thirty ters long. In her fury, Zi Ji's tail slamd into You Lie, sending him flying several hundred ters.
You Lie crashed into a dozen massive trees before coming to a stop.
He had also transford into a purple-black dragon, but his size was only half that of Zi Ji's. Under her assault, he was utterly helpless.
"Boom." Zi Ji's tail struck You Lie's head one last ti, twisting it and leaving him lying limp on the ground, unable to move.
"Master, it was my failure to discipline my subordinate. I beg for your forgiveness." After severely injuring You Lie, Zi Ji quickly ca to Zhao Ming and bowed in apology.
"You Hell Demon Dragons are quite bold. And this You Lie?" Zhao Ming said coolly.
"I beg the master to spare his life. Among the younger generation of our clan, he is the only one who has passed the hundred-thousand-year tribulation. If he dies, our clan might face a gap in its legacy." Zi Ji's face changed as she pleaded.
"Fair enough. In that case, I'll punish you instead. As the leader of the Hell Demon Dragon Clan, you failed to manage your subordinates properly. What do you think?"
"Zi Ji deserves punishnt. Master may punish however he wishes."
"However I wish?" Zhao Ming said with a hint of amusent.
"Not like that," Zi Ji blushed and murmured softly.
"Alright, I was just joking. Zi Ji is so beautiful—how could I bear to punish you?" Zhao Ming said, pulling her waist close again.
"But in the future, keep your distance from people like him. Otherwise, people might gossip."
