722: Return to Earth
Unfortunately, the sliver of Fate Power he wielded was unreliable, failing to show Yang Dian any glimpse of the future.
But it wasn't a big problem.
Even if little Ku Li Pa truly turned evil, with his strength increasing tenfold, a hundredfold, or even a thousandfold or ten thousandfold, Yang Dian could still suppress him with a single finger.
It was nothing significant.
The important matter now was to re-examine the Dragons he planned to bring to Earth.
He lightly touched his glabella, summoned the Dimension Butterfly, then lifted it with his index finger and flicked it towards the sky:
"Dimension Baptism."
Hearing Yang Dian's command, the Dimension Butterfly instantly vanished from his fingertip.
When it reappeared, it was already above the Dragons lined up in formation, transforming into a colossal shadow that obscured the world.
"This is..."
Thunder Roar, who had just finished his Soul resonance with the Mutant Thunder Dragon and felt his strength surge, looked at the immense creature in the sky that stretched as far as the eye could see.
The hair on his body immediately stood on end, and goosebumps rose on his skin.
Even the cutest creature, once its size increased, would become terrifyingly formidable.
Just like the Dimension Butterfly at this very moment.
Its once slender walking legs had now become sky-pillars, descending from the high heavens, stirring up wind and thunder with their movements, as if capable of destroying the world.
"Commander."
Chen Ci descended from the sky, her face filled with solemnity:
"That monster in the sky?"
Yang Dian smiled, looking up at the Dimension Butterfly, which was thousands of miles long and equally wide, and said:
"Imagine it shrunk by a billion times."
Chen Ci was momentarily stunned, then tapped her wristband twice before looking at Yang Dian again:
"That monster in the sky is too mysterious; neither satellites nor the wristband's built-in camera System can capture it. We can only perceive it with our eyes."
As she spoke, seeing Yang Dian's unconcerned expression, Chen Ci suddenly realized something and cast her gaze back to the six towering pillars in the sky and their distinctly curved edges.
"Commander, is that giant in the sky your Dimension Butterfly?"
Yang Dian affirmed:
"Congratulations, you got it right."
Chen Ci breathed a sigh of relief, then looked at the Dimension Butterfly, marveling:
"It can grow this big now, huh?"
"Truly a dimensional creature, it's really magical."
Yang Dian smiled again.
In the eyes of others, the Dimension Butterfly had a wingspan of thousands of miles, or tens of thousands of miles, in any case, it covered the sky and obscured the sun.
But in his eyes...
This little Dimension Butterfly, even with all its might to expand itself, only had a wingspan of a hundred meters.
What others saw was it, refracted and magnified by space and dimension.
What he saw was the true Dimension Butterfly.
"Dimensional interference is truly wondrous."
No sooner had the murmur left his lips than butterfly dust drifted down from the Dimension Butterfly.
And in the eyes of others, brilliant stars fell from the giant butterfly's wings, crashing towards the earth.
"Roar~"
A Dragon, unable to bear the oppressive feeling any longer, let out an angry roar, spread its wings, and tried to flee into the distance.
However, it had barely flapped its wings when Yang Dian appeared on its head.
He raised his foot and stomped down.
"Thump~"
The sound waves transformed into visible ripples expanding towards the horizon, and Yang Dian's voice also reached the ears of all living beings with the ripples:
"Quiet."
Chen Ci, who had landed on the Red Dragon's head behind Yang Dian, marveled:
"Commander, what did you do to these Dragons? Why do they seem to fear you more than death?"
"The moment you speak, they become like quails."
Yang Dian patted the huge Dragon horn beside him:
"You should have heard the idiom 'worse than death', right?"
"Sometimes, death is a blessing."
When Yang Dian uttered the four words 'worse than death', Chen Ci distinctly felt the Red Dragon beneath her feet tremble.
Before she could ponder what 'worse than death' experiences these Dragons had, the brilliant stars falling from the sky had already arrived before them.
"Woo~"
The little Space-Time Dragon, who had just formed a contract with Chen Ci, let out a joyful sound under the Dimension Power's baptism, bouncing its size 80 feet on the Red Dragon's head.
Space-Time was a lower-tier power of Dimension.
Wouldn't the little Space-Time Dragon, nourished by Space-Time Power, be like having taken a powerful tonic?
Compared to the Space-Time Dragon's joy, the Dragons of other attributes were suffering.
Dimension Power transformed into a scythe, cutting through their bodies, eroding their Souls, as if to dismember them into the most fundamental particles.
Only after thoroughly cleansing all parts of the Dragons' bodies, ensuring no spatial positioning methods were left on them, did the remaining Dimension Power overflow from the Dragons' bodies, forming a layer of flowing gauze that enveloped them.
As the Dimension Butterfly returned, Yang Dian's brow furrowed.
"There were no contingencies left by other creatures on these Dragons?"
He raised his hand and beckoned, and a golden feather flew from the city wall into Yang Dian's palm.
This feather was the one the Queen had given to Ku Li Pa for his protection.
If Yang Dian's perception wasn't mistaken, this feather had been plucked from a Star Shattering Realm expert.
"Was it truly obtained by the Winged Human Race by accident?"
After a moment of contemplation, Yang Dian embedded the feather into a brick on the city wall.
Regardless of whether this feather was accidentally obtained by the Winged Human Race, the fact that there were no Star Shattering Realm experts on Emerald Dragon Star and no positioning methods left by others on the Dragons was enough.
As for whether that expert was so incredibly powerful that he evaded the Dimension Butterfly's Dimension Baptism, causing the Dimension Butterfly not to detect his presence?
If such an existence truly existed, he would have long since slipped into Earth through the dimensional gate Yang Dian had the Dimension Butterfly open; overthinking it was useless.
Pondering this, Yang Dian once again surveyed Emerald Continent:
"Ya Zi, manage Emerald Dragon Star well."
"This is our current best retreat; no trouble must arise here."
Ya Zi, with the treasured sword in its mouth, projected a physical form beside Yang Dian, squatted, and raised its right hand towards Yang Dian:
"Mission accomplished, I will suppress any disturbances."
Reaching out, Yang Dian rubbed the adorable Ya Zi twice, then nodded to it again:
"Then I'll leave it to you, do a good job."
With that, Yang Dian no longer delayed.
The Expeditionary Force had already assembled, and it was time for him to return with his gifts.
In his thoughts, he took a step forward.
As his step landed, Yang Dian and Chen Ci, along with thousands of Dragons wrapped in silvery quicksand, simultaneously vanished from the sky.
The unobstructed sunlight fell from the sky, and the cold broadcast once again echoed through the city:
"Each to their own duties, each to their own affairs."
"Obey the law, rewards for reporting Mutants."
"Violating the law, those with dissenting hearts shall face the death penalty..."
Inside the city, the Winged Human Queen stared blankly at where the golden feather had fallen, lost in thought.
The Elf Princess, Dark Elf Princess, and Mermaid Princess watched the thousands of Dragons abruptly disappear from the sky, speechless.
On the other side of the city gate.
Ku Li Pa led the Centaur Chieftain out of the city gate, took one last look at the magnificent city wall behind him, then mounted his horse:
"Xia, are you coming with me? Do you regret it?"
The Centaur Chieftain galloped towards the east.
That was the direction of Ku Li Pa's home.
"No regrets."
"We are not like the Elves and Winged Humans."
"We are unwavering in our loyalty..."
