Chapter 561 Mysterious Female Powerhouse, Heaven-Shattering Divine Blade
The voice carried a deep sense of confusion, yet it also exuded a powerful aura, as if it belonged to an unparalleled expert.
"What is this thing?!"
Chen Bei's hand trembled, and he almost threw the jade ruyi away. Chu Yu was also startled and subconsciously moved closer to Chen Bei.
The purple-gold dragon suddenly leaped from Chen Bei's palm, landed on Chen Bei's shoulder, grabbed Chen Bei's collar tightly, trembling all over, and completely lost its arrogance.
"Awooo, this scared me to death! There's someone inside this thing! No wonder it's so terrifying."
The two people and the dragon stared intently, and the faint voice from the jade ruyi continued to echo. Chen Bei asked curiously.
"Isn't this thing meant to suppress you? Don't you know its origin? Don't you know this is inside?"
"I really don't know, this thing has never made this sound before." The purple-gold dragon shrugged, indicating that it really didn't know.
"Who am I...who am I..."
A faint sound emanated from the jade ruyi, echoing throughout the underground palace.
"Awooo! You scared this dragon to death! Awooo..."
The purple-gold dragon lay on Chen Bei's body, its five small, short claws gripping his collar tightly, its whole body trembling.
Its former aura as a powerful dragon has long been forgotten.
Suddenly, a blazing holy light burst forth from the jade ruyi and pierced straight into the body of the purple-gold divine dragon.
The purple-gold dragon was so frightened that its soul almost left its body, and it began to wail and howl like a ghost.
"Great sir, spare me! I don't know who you are... Awooo... I'm just a weak, pitiful, and helpless little dragon, please let me go!"
It struggled desperately, but the light enveloped it and it couldn't shake it off.
Just then, a faint female voice came from the jade ruyi, a voice that was ethereal and otherworldly.
"Go find the Heaven-Shattering Divine Blade..."
Upon hearing this, the world seemed to change color.
Nine bolts of heavenly lightning exploded in succession in the void, shaking the heavens above and startling the netherworld below.
Throughout the Three Realms and Six Paths, countless mysterious and powerful beings were alarmed. "It's her! She's still alive! Is she returning?"
The Purple-Gold Divine Dragon froze, its eyes wide open. The sacred light that burst forth from the Jade Ruyi suddenly exploded, transforming into countless points of light that burrowed into the Purple-Gold Divine Dragon's body.
The purple-gold dragon froze, then suddenly sprang up from Chen Bei's collar and flew into the air.
"Awoo!"
It roared to the sky, its voice filled with joy, and a faint energy fluctuation emanated from its body. After a moment, the light gradually faded.
The purple-gold dragon landed back on the ground, looked down at its claws, and stared wide-eyed.
"This great one...this great one has a trace of dragon essence within him!"
It rolled around on the ground excitedly, its tail swishing loudly like a dog running wild.
"Hahaha, I can cultivate again! I can regain my invincible glory of yesteryear!"
Chen Bei ignored the Purple-Gold Divine Dragon and stared at the jade ruyi in his hand.
The jade ruyi's light faded, returning to calm. It lay in his palm, warm and smooth as jade. He examined it several times, his brows furrowing slightly, before looking at the purple-gold dragon.
"The Heaven-Shattering Divine Blade... what is that?"
Chu Yu leaned closer, staring at the jade ruyi, and asked curiously, "Yes, why did that voice tell Little Mudskipper to go find some Heaven-Breaking Divine Blade?"
The purple-gold dragon got up from the ground, patted the dust off its body with its claws, and cleared its throat in a serious manner.
"Ahem, speaking of this, this humble servant... ahem, does know a little about it."
Chen Bei and Chu Yu both looked at it. The purple-gold dragon raised its head, trying to appear knowledgeable.
"The Heaven-Shattering Divine Blade is no ordinary thing. Legend has it that it is a supreme treasure passed down from the ancient times."
Then it lowered its voice and said, "There are rumors that the Heaven-Breaking Divine Blade is actually the Great Dragon Blade."
"The Great Dragon Blade? What's that?" Chu Yu blinked.
The purple-gold dragon's expression became unusually serious.
"The Great Dragon Blade is said to be a divine blade formed from the body of the legendary supreme Dragon Emperor. That Dragon Emperor was the strongest dragon in history, incredibly powerful."
It sighed, its tone filled with longing.
"I heard that the Supreme Dragon Emperor was refined by an unparalleled being with immense magical power, turning it into a forbidden object. It is said that with a single strike, it could even cleave the sky in two."
"This Heaven-Shattering Divine Blade has such a grand origin?" Chen Bei frowned. "Why did the voice in the jade ruyi tell you to find it? How could you possibly find such a supreme treasure?"
The purple-gold dragon spread out its two short claws, looking helpless.
"Who knows? Maybe that big shot has connections with the Great Dragon Saber and wants me to be his errand boy."
Its eyes darted around, and it put on that smug expression again.
"But then again, if we really find the Great Dragon Blade, then... I'll be rich! It's an unparalleled treasure!"
Chu Yu rolled her eyes: "You can't even beat a stray cat now, and you're still looking for some divine sword?"
The purple-gold dragon choked, its mouth opened and closed, but it couldn't utter a word for a long time.
The underground palace returned to silence, with only the purple-gold dragon still excitedly wagging its tail. Chen Bei looked at the purple-gold dragon lying in his palm, and the corners of his mouth turned up slightly.
"We'll talk about the Heaven-Breaking Divine Blade later. Right now, we're all noobs and there's no way we can find it. Let's give you a name for now."
"What's the right name? You're so cheap and scoundrel-like, you have no dignity of a dragon at all. Calling yourself Purple Gold Dragon is a disgrace to the dragon race."
Chen Bei stroked his chin, deep in thought, then his eyes lit up.
"Got it, from today onwards, you'll be called Rogue Dragon."
Chu Yu's eyes lit up, and she clapped her hands repeatedly.
"Rogue Dragon? That name is perfect. It's both rogue and cheeky, and it doesn't sound like a proper dragon at all. It perfectly matches the personality of a loach."
The purple-gold dragon suddenly leaped up, its dragon eyes wide open.
"What? Rogue Dragon? No way! Absolutely not!"
It brandished its five short claws, looking indignant.
"I am a five-clawed, purple-gold divine dragon! The emperor of dragons! Noble and sacred. How could you give me such an awful name!"
It raised its head, trying to appear dignified.
"Back in the day, when I roamed the world, everyone respectfully addressed me as Lord Dragon."
Chen Bei looked at it disdainfully, "Back then was back then, and now is now. What's the use of talking about the past? The fact is you can't even beat any random monster now."
The purple-gold dragon choked, its mouth opened and closed, but it couldn't utter a single word in rebuttal.
Chu Yu chimed in with a grin, "Exactly! You've become a little mudfish now, and you still think you're so noble."
"That...that was an accident!" The purple-gold dragon cried out in alarm, its tail slapping loudly. "Back in my day, I was truly awe-inspiring; even the Demon Ancestor had to give me some respect!"
Chen Bei and Chu Yu exchanged a glance and chuckled simultaneously, their smiles conveying the message: disbelief.
Seeing the expressions on their faces, the Purple-Gold Divine Dragon trembled with rage.
"You...you are showing the utmost disrespect to the dragon! I, the great one, will not accept such an insulting name!"
Chen Bei stretched out his finger and gently flicked its dragon head.
"Two votes to one, your objection is invalid."
Chu Yu raised her hand, grinning, and said, "I agree!"
The purple-gold dragon opened its mouth, looked at Chen Bei, then at Chu Yu, and then at its own small body, which was only about a meter long.
It lowered its head in despair.
"Sigh, I admit defeat."
Chen Bei nodded in satisfaction and put Pizi Long on his shoulder.
"That's more like it. Let's go, Rogue Dragon."
