237: The return of the Yunxia masters!

“At that time, Your Highness Crown Prince, your prestige will surely spread throughout the entire land!”

The giant turtle's face was full of fawning smiles, but he genuinely believed it should be so. “Crown Prince, you go ahead. This old servant will scout the way for you.”

“Haha, you’re right!”

The black dragon, addressed as Crown Prince, immediately beamed with a smile upon hearing this. “They have occupied the land for so many years and looked down on us. Now, it’s time to let these land beasts know the power of our Sea Clan!”

“Heed my command, advance at full speed!”

“Yes—”

With Crown Prince Black Dragon's command, nearly ten thousand Sea Clan powerhouses immediately marched mightily into Jiangnan District, moving with incredible speed.

Currently, the entire Jiangnan District has very few humans, and almost all its territory is occupied by the fierce beasts of Yunxia Mountain.

Even in the peripheral areas of Jiangnan District, there are fierce beasts from Yunxia Mountain, collectively forming this vast territory.

“Why such a big commotion?”

Not long after the Sea Clan army advanced, a lone Ape discovered the anomaly in the distance due to the huge commotion and went to investigate.

As the leaves were pushed aside, the Ape saw a shocking scene before him and immediately exclaimed, “Oh my goodness!”

“So many sea beasts have appeared!”

“No, I must quickly go back and report!”

After understanding the situation here, the Ape turned around and ran, wanting to report this news to the higher-ups of Yunxia Mountain. While sprinting, he didn't forget to ponder, “Currently, the King and other generals are out seeking opportunities. It seems only the Clan Leader can stop this army!”

The Ape made up his mind and sprinted towards his clan leader’s location!

The clan leader he spoke of was Yuan Dali, who was bestowed with the Kusanagi-no-Tsurugi.

The latter, missing his clan, had returned to Jiangnan from Mount Tai very early, also intending to guard Xia Fan's old lair in Yunxia Mountain.

“Boom!”

Suddenly, a bolt of lightning struck from afar, instantly hitting the Ape and leaving a large crater in the ground.

At this moment, the Ape's body was already charred black!

“Full speed ahead!”

The one who attacked was none other than Crown Prince Black Dragon. For him, killing a land beast was even simpler than killing a chicken, with no feeling whatsoever.

Jiangnan District is vast, and the Sea Clan army’s movements were also very large as they advanced, so it was naturally impossible for them to go unnoticed.

About a day later, flying fierce beasts brought the news back to Yunxia Mountain, immediately causing a strong reaction, attracting almost all the fierce beasts, big and small.

“Bang!”

“Damn it!”

Upon hearing the news, Yuan Dali directly smashed the stone table with a slap, his expression furious. Around him, Xiong Da, Hu Er, and Lang San, and other fierce beasts were also incredibly enraged, “Let’s fight them!”

“Although the King is not here, we cannot let this group of sea beasts run wild!”

“Fight them!”

The fierce beasts in Yunxia Mountain are all proud, especially this batch of Yuan Dali. After all, before the great changes in heaven and earth, they had rampaged in the ocean for a long time, striking fear into the hearts of the Sea Clan.

They even crossed the oceans to rampage in the Freedom Country.

At that time, all Sea Clan creatures would flee at the mere mention of them, not daring to resist in the slightest. But they never expected that now, with Yunxia Mountain not attacking others, the Sea Clan would actively come to their doorstep.

“Gather all our brothers!”

After taking a few deep breaths, Yuan Dali’s eyes gleamed with killing intent. “Tell them to beat these Sea Clan creatures fiercely, don’t let a single one escape!”

Before long, the fierce beasts of Yunxia Mountain, organized by Yuan Dali, had assembled. And without waiting for the Sea Clan to attack, they took the initiative to go outside Yunxia Mountain to intercept the Sea Clan army. “Today, if anyone lets any sea beast enter Yunxia Mountain, you won’t need them to act, I will personally punish you!”

“Rumble!”

Along the Sea Clan army’s path, dark clouds loomed, and strong winds, accompanied by heavy rain, continuously eroded the land, seemingly turning everything in their path into a swamp. Various sea beasts, large and small, moved ceaselessly within, their aura powerful.

Suddenly, an extremely fierce sword qi came rapidly from afar, directly splitting the dark clouds and causing the heavy rain to pause for a moment.

“Hmph!”

Seeing this, Crown Prince Black Dragon snorted coldly, then swung his claw, unleashing a giant dragon claw imprint, which instantly collided with the sword qi.

Rumble!

Amidst the loud noise, the sword qi was directly destroyed, while the giant dragon claw imprint continued forward!

“What?”

At this moment, Yuan Dali, holding the Kusanagi-no-Tsurugi, was about to use this to test the strength of the Sea Clan powerhouses. Seeing this scene, he revealed an even more astonished expression, “What? How could it be so easy?”

Currently, he was already at the mid-fifth-stage level, and with a divine weapon in hand, few powerhouses could usually achieve this, but he never expected his attack to be so easily broken by the opponent.

Beside him, Xiong Da, Hu Er, and other fierce beasts also frowned, looking worried, “Brother Dali, what should we do?”

“That guy opposite seems difficult to deal with, but now, you are the strongest one at home!”

They only now realized that with the King absent, they too couldn't keep up with the times. Even casually appearing Sea Clan creatures were very powerful!

At this moment, the vanguard of Yunxia Mountain and the Sea Clan army had already engaged in a chaotic battle, and at the mid-to-low-tier level, the fierce beasts of Yunxia Mountain were not at a disadvantage, fighting fiercely with the Sea Clan army!

However, these mid-to-low-tier combat forces, no matter how well they fought, wouldn't be of much use. The key to victory still lay with Yuan Dali and his group.

“We’re back!”

Suddenly, a giant whirlpool quickly appeared in the water near Yuan Dali. Although there was nothing yet, a familiar voice came from it.

Immediately after, Ta Mu, with Nami, leaped out of the giant whirlpool, showing a smile of old friends meeting to Yuan Dali and the other fierce beasts. “It’s been a while, you’re all still the same, not unfamiliar at all!”

“However, now is not the time for small talk. Let’s resolve the current situation first.”

They had been active in the South Sea before, seeking opportunities, and upon learning that a new Dragon King had appeared among the Sea Clan, they had been quietly monitoring the Sea Clan's movements.

Therefore, upon learning that the Sea Clan had sent a large army towards Yunxia Mountain, Ta Mu and his group quickly rushed back to provide support.

At this moment, Yuan Dali felt Ta Mu’s strength and couldn't help but exclaim in surprise, “Ta Mu, you rascal have actually reached the late fifth-stage. It seems you’ve found quite a few opportunities!”

As he spoke, his words revealed a hint of envy.

After all, he himself was among those who chose to live a leisurely life, so during this time, he cultivated using the resources Xia Fan left behind in Yunxia Mountain, living at a steady pace.

Although this was not bad, compared to Ta Mu, he had fallen behind a bit.
