455: Chapter 455 Save...Save me...A lament from the quasi-Emperor's son!

Just as Su Chen decided to hold his ground and watch the tigers fight from the mountain...

The group of Prodigies below, who were at their wits' end facing the gates of the Myriad Treasures Heavenly Palace, finally noticed these uninvited guests.

“Hey! Look! What's that over by the woods?!”

A sharp-eyed Yao Race Prodigy was the first to spot dozens of massive dark shadows emerging from the edge of the dense forest, his cry of alarm instantly piercing the heavy atmosphere.

Everyone's eyes turned in unison, and a collective gasp followed.

“Hiss—! It's Swift Raptor Lizards!”

“The one in the lead... My God, it's in the Quasi-Emperor Realm! Is this an entire beast tide?!”

“Not good! Prepare for battle!”

The entire scene fell into a frenzy as the light of various Magic Treasures flickered; everyone looked as if they were facing a formidable foe.

They had hacked their way through thorns and brambles to get here and knew all too well how terrifying these native Vicious Beasts were.

However, just as everyone thought a bloody battle was inevitable, the next scene nearly made their eyes pop out of their heads.

They were horrified to discover that a person was actually sitting on the back of every single ferocious Swift Raptor Lizard!

Especially on the back of the leading Dragon Lizard King, a Youth in White Robes lay sprawled out carelessly, his posture so relaxed it was as if he were sunbathing in his own backyard!

This... what was going on?!

This group of fierce people had actually subdued an entire Swift Raptor Lizard tribe to use as mounts?!

Everyone was dumbfounded, staring with mouths agape, their minds buzzing.

Which nest of immortals did they freaking stumble upon? This was way too aggressive!

[Tsk, the psychological fortitude of this batch of Prodigies is lacking; this is nothing.]

On the back of the Dragon Lizard King, Su Chen shifted his position, his heart completely unruffled.

However, before everyone could recover from this shock, a scene appeared that made their scalps tingle even more.

What were they seeing?

Behind the tail of that Dragon Lizard King, there was actually... a human-shaped object being dragged along?!

That person was bound tightly by a glittering golden rope, swinging like a ragdoll with the movement of the giant tail, grinding against the rough ground with a 'screeching' sound as sparks flew in all directions.

The sight was miserable to the extreme!

“Holy crap! Who... who is that?! Their face is almost ground away!”

“Wait a minute! That tattered battle armor on him, why does it look a bit familiar?”

A Prodigy from a Great Realm stared fixedly at that human-shaped 'pendant,' his face full of shock and suspicion. He felt that although the armor was in tatters, he could vaguely see extraordinary thunder patterns that he seemed to have seen somewhere before.

Suddenly! It was as if he remembered something; he took a sharp breath, his eyes bulging!

“Thun... Thunder-patterned Battle Armor! And that Purple-Gold Thunder God Hammer hanging at his waist!”

“Isn't... isn't that the signature equipment of the Raging Thunder Realm's Divine Son, Thunder Shatterer?!”

His voice became sharp and distorted due to extreme horror!

As soon as these words were spoken, the entire field fell deathly silent!

Everyone's gaze instantly focused on the 'human-shaped pendant' behind the lizard's tail!

“What?! Thunder Shatterer?!”

“Impossible! That's a fierce person at the First Heaven of the Quasi-Emperor Realm! Who could turn him into this ghostly state?!”

“But... that armor and hammer are exactly the same as the legends!”

Amidst the discussions filled with shock and doubt...

The 'human-shaped pendant,' who was being dragged while on the verge of death and foaming at the mouth, seemed to hear the crowd's discussion.

He abruptly lifted his bloodied and mangled face, using all his strength to squeeze a desperate roar from his throat, which was filled with mud and sand.

“Sav... Save me...”

The voice was hoarse, yet it carried a bone-deep tyranny and dominance.

All the Prodigies present were all too familiar with this unique voice!

It really was Thunder Shatterer!

The moment this fact was confirmed, the air in the entire square seemed to be sucked dry!

The sound of gasping rose one after another, converging into a symphony of death!

Everyone was completely stunned.

They looked at Thunder Shatterer, who was being dragged like a rag, and then at the Youth in White Robes lying on the lizard's back with a calm expression.

A chill originating from the depths of their Souls instantly rushed to the tops of their heads!

Brutal!

This wasn't just brutal anymore; this was a devil!

To actually dare to treat and humiliate the Divine Son of the Raging Thunder Realm like this?! This was practically using the soles of one's shoes to frantically slap the overbearing face of the Raging Thunder Realm back and forth!

Everyone's gaze subconsciously shifted away from Su Chen's group, and they lowered their heads.

They didn't dare look anymore.

One more glance, and they feared they would be silenced on the spot by this group of 'vicious gods' who clearly weren't to be trifled with!

The previous atmosphere of commotion in the entire square vanished without a trace, replaced by a deathly silence and an emotion called 'awe.'

Under the watch of countless fearful gazes, that incredibly arrogant 'lizard motorcade' slowly entered the square.

The crowd scattered frantically to both sides as if they had seen a ghost, forcibly making way for a broad path.

A clean-looking youth wearing an Alchemist's Robe and emitting a dense medicinal fragrance suddenly stepped out from the crowd.

Ignoring the horrified looks around him, he walked straight to the front of the Dragon Lizard King.

He looked at the Youth in White Robes lying on the throne with a lazy expression, a subtle glint flashing in his eyes.

He cupped his hands toward Su Chen, a gentle smile appearing on his face.

“This must be Fellow Daoist Su Chen of the Xuanyuan Continent, who has ascended to the ninety-ninth rank of the ten thousand races prodigy list under the name 'multi-rich multi-billion,' right?”

“I am Gu He of the Heavenly Pill Realm. I have long looked forward to meeting you.”
