Weapon seller in the world of magic

Chapter 567: Yuanlong, the guardian of the heavens



For a while, the battle came to a standstill as the mysterious figure slowly descended to the altitude where Leviathan was floating.

For Mark, who stood hundreds of meters away, even with his enhanced vision, it just looked like a ball of light.

But for the nearby ones, it appeared as a beautiful woman, wearing white clothes and a golden tiara on her head. Just like Leviathan, her eyes also have vertical slits.

The figure who was known as Yuanlong took a glance at Bael and Chang'e who stood together side by side, "Chang'e, I gave you the life-saving scroll to summon me when the outside forces invade your home and steal away the elixir of immortality, not in a demonic world."

Chang'e was surprised and had her head hung down by the scolding.

Yuanlong didn't finish there. She continued to scold her, "And what are you doing with these evil fiends?" This time, her glare was aimed at Bael, who flinched involuntarily, feeling fear in his heart.

She then glanced in the direction where Mark was floating beside Alloces and once again scolded Chang'e, "And how dare you drag the human here without bringing him to me? You should be ashamed of your actions." In the previous scolding, it appeared like a pass-off comment. This time, the displeasure was evident in her tone.

Chang'e knelt on the spot and cupped her fists, "Forgive me, Your Grace. The human is linked to the demon king on my left. He is the only way for me to get back my husband's soul from that Evil Leviathan."

Yuanlong didn't react to her statement and shifted her attention to Leviathan, "This is your territory. I won't interfere in your business. Let bygones be bygones. I will take the human child and Chang'e back with me."

"Heh?" Leviathan smirked at her words. He folded his hands to his chest and tilted slightly as he replied, "If you were here with your true body, I might have listened to your request. But, you are nothing more than an astral projection. Do you think you have the ability to bend down my will?"

Leviathan followed it up by transforming into a gargantuan serpent, shaking the hearts of the spectators; its scales shimmered with deep blues and greens, massive fins protruded along its spine, and as it roared, several lines of its razor-sharp teeth were spotted by Mark, even from far away.

His heart beat rose to the peak and his legs stiffened, giving him an indication to run away as fast as possible. "Ark, let's…"

At that moment, he didn't care whether Chang'e died or lived. He just wanted to escape.

But, in the next moment, the dazzling figure was also expanded to hundreds of times, blocking the sight of Leviathan with even bigger size.

However, unlike Leviathan, Yuanlong's entire body is coiled in several loops; its body is adorned with pure golden scales and the aura emitted by the serpent brings a sense of peace to Mark and Chang'e.

However, for demons like Bael, Alloces, and Marbas, it was a poison. Bael managed to bear it, bringing up his remaining forms and transforming back into his original three-headed demon; Alloces didn't even hesitate to abandon Mark and grabbed a fainted Marbas, flying away from there with his peak speed.

Mark didn't follow them and instead watched the back of the golden serpent in a daze until the unaffected artificial intelligence took the opportunity to display its stats on a holographic screen.

"So, I guess we were saved?"

Next second;

"Nope, we are going to die." "Blizzard Wings"

Mark's facial expression changed, watching both serpents literally clash their heads against each other, creating a tremendous amount of waves of energy on all sides.

Bael and Chang'e blasted away hundreds of meters, and so did Mark even after conjuring icy wings and covering himself like a shield.

"Bael, both of you, come here. I have a plan." Mark passed a telepathic message to the demon king, as he flew back atleast a couple of kilometers to create enough distance to be safe from the battle.

As the gargantuan beasts grew pairs of hands from their bodies at the same time and wrestled, Bael and Chang'e flew toward Mark at their top speed, reaching him in no time.

"Ha" "Ha" "Ha" "Didn't expect Leviathan to be so strong," Chang'e commented, taking heavy breaths. After her divine energy reserves became empty, the environment of the demon world and the lava sea below her became even more troublesome for her.

Adding on top of that, the stamina consumption of using the cosmic orb twice is huge, as she wasn't bonded with it and its true owner, Shang Jiao was too far away from the orb.

Looking at her miserable state, Mark couldn't help but comment, "In our mortal terms, we call your situation as: you shot yourself in the foot."

"Sh*t up, I don't want to hear insults from you anymore," Chang'e snapped at him.

Mark blinked his eyes in surprise, "don't tell me you still haven't figured out that I was faking it earlier?"

"Hmm?" As Chang'e looked at him, Bael smirked, "Obviously, your acting wasn't that great, Lu Zhen. You purposely fought with her to remove yourself from Leviathan's view as a possible hostage. Anyone can easily see through it."

"Well, Leviathan was certainly fooled," Mark shrugged his shoulders.

"Huh? Is that the case?" Chang'e wondered out loud, making Bael and Mark abruptly turn their heads to look at her.

Chang'e blushed in embarrassment and averted her gaze, "Alright, fine. I thought you were genuinely looking down on me because my powers seemed useless here and I overestimated myself. Moreover, your words were too sharp."

Mark let out a sigh and replied, "Your Grace, you have wasted half of your divine energy just to free me. Surely, if I stay there, your focus will be diverted entirely to protecting me. Since Bael is also contracted to me, Leviathan will take full advantage of it and use it against both of you." After a brief pause, he added, "But, I didn't expect you to have such a trump card with you."

"I never planned on using it but Leviathan's strength is greater than I expected and I thought we won't get away from here with our lives. So, I had to do it," replied Chang'e, letting out a deep sigh of helplessness.

She then gazed at the wrestling giant beasts that were just pulling and pushing against each other, "Anyway, Demon King Bael told me that you have a plan that will work. What is it?" She asked.

Mark closed his eyes. transforming the submachine gun into an exquisite sword with a thought, before tossing it to Chang'e.
