Chapter 471: 471
Knowing that he had lost the chance to fight back, the Xiyang Prince felt indignant . He was a genius! A bonafide genius! How could he lose to a simpleton from the Demon Phoenix Continent?!
He was young, much younger than those beasts who could not cultivate before they turned thirty, and he was already a Sky Saint of the ninth layer! He just needed a break through to reach the Heavenly Saint Layer, then he would be able to become a King ranked expert!
Xue Wei was unaware of the prince's thoughts, but if he had known, he would snort . So what was the purpose of being a genius? Could this 'title' give one food to eat? Could it kill one's enemies?
In fact, being a genius was not a good thing . When one was marked as a genius, they had a lot of pressure, and were more likely to die on their journey to the top .
Many were jealous of geniuses and would try to kill them . Geniuses also tended to not put in as much hard work as an ordinary cultivator, as their road was smooth-sailing from the beginning .
When they encountered a bottleneck, many would succumb to the difficulties, and this was what the Xiyang prince was experiencing right now .
His eyes were red due to anger and disbelief . He was a true genius, so he had thought that he was omnipotent, that nothing could ever defeat him, but having underestimated Xue Wei, he now experienced loss for the first time .
The prince was going crazy . "You cannot defeat me! Guards capture this man and let me rip him to pieces! Let me sever his limbs, and let him die with grievances without being left with a complete corpse!"
The guards had been on high alert waiting for this order, and the moment that it was given, they rushed to surround Xue Wei .
Looking at them, Xue Wei snickered . So they had expected that he was easy to capture?
Should he become an Azure Dragon or perhaps a Vermilion Bird?
After considering that he was now known to be an Azure Dragon, and that only a few people knew of his identity as the Holy Son, he started growing azure scales on every inch of his body as he transformed into a real Azure Dragon .
Xue Wei did nothing to suppress his body's size, and the appearance of his real form caused the bodyguards of the prince to be pressed backward .
The aura that was now surrounding Xue Wei was also enough to cause them to pause in their steps . They were frightened out of their wits .
Everyone with knowledge of the Sovereign Beasts knew that there were four Sovereign Beast Clans in this world . The Azure Dragons, the Vermilion Birds, the White Tigers, and the Black Turtles .
The Demon Phoenix Continent was the home ground for the Vermilion Bird Clan . The actual reason that the Xiyang Continent wanted to wage war against them was to take over the Vermilion Bird Clan and make them their vassals .
The Sovereign Beasts were the most illustrious and revered creatures in the world, and to have subjugated an entire Sovereign Beast Clan would prove their strength .
But now an Azure Dragon had appeared . Did this mean that the other Sovereign Beast Clans had appeared and wanted to interfere with the war?
The appearance of Xue Wei in his Azure Dragon shape caused not only the bodyguards and the prince to feel faint, the aura he released caused many to be full of fear, and even the King and Emperor ranked Experts were full of trepidation .
If suddenly another clan of the Sovereign Beasts were added to the war, the Xiyang Continent would have no chance of survival .
Xue Wei had not thought that his appearance would cause such hesitation and alertness to appear in the minds of everyone present .
He had picked the Azure Dragon shape out of a few reasons . First of all, the Diviners knew that he was an Azure Dragon, so if he suddenly became a Vermilion Bird, it would be quite troublesome .
It was the same for many of the experts in the Demon Phoenix Continent . Although a few knew that he was the Holy Son, many were unaware of this, but they were aware of his identity as an Azure Dragon .
The final reason was that his body was massive . If he turned into the shape of an Azure Dragon, he would be able to push back the opponents he was facing, and the protective layer of the scales was much more durable than that of the vermilion bird feathers .
Xue Wei's eyes had changed from human eyes to dragon eyes . They resembled an oversized cat, the vertical pupil in his eyes was glancing at the Xiyang prince, and he looked like a beast that had locked onto its prey .
The prince was scared . He had never encountered anything like this before . He had always been sheltered, and while he had fought against Primordial Beasts, he was now breathless when facing a Sovereign Beast . The sheer momentum of Xue Wei was so overwhelming that he felt his heart quake in fear .
Xue Wei had sent just a single glance at the prince, but this glance was enough to make him feel his entire back drenched in a cold sweat .
But Xue Wei had already injured the prince, and he was not the current real problem that he had to deal with . It was the numerous entourage of bodyguards .
While his scales were rather durable, and while his strength had exploded after shapeshifting, it was still a challenge to face off against too many bodyguards at once . But he welcomed the challenge!
