2226 Apocalypse Martial Ruler Appears, Everything Is Under Control

The Dragon Hunter Leader led the Dragon Hunters to the Huang clan's base to retrieve the Dragonslayer.

Huang Clan Leader, decked in dragon-scaled armor, was ready for a fierce fight.

"You're just in time. Handover the Dragonslayer, and I can grant you a quick death," the Dragon Hunter Leader said coldly.

Huang Clan Leader scoffed when he heard the threats. "Dragon Hunter Leader, why keep up the act? I must admit that you Dragon Hunters outsmarted us this time, but to destroy the Huang clan, you better be ready for the fiercest fight in your life."

"What are you talking about?"

The Dragon Hunter Leader raised his brows. He knew something was not right.

"You know exactly what I'm talking about." 

"Leader, stop wasting time with him! Kill him and take the Dragonslayer back," said an elder of the Dragon Hunters.

"Bullsh*t! You people have taken the Dragonslayer, and now you march on us? You're just looking for an excuse to eliminate us!"

"Yeah! We're not afraid of you! Bring it on!"

"F*ck you! Stop accusing us! You human trash!"

The situation got intense, and powerful auras flooded the realm.

They continued to argue and curse at each other. Neither of them believed what the other said.

To begin with, the Dragon Hunters were never fond of the Huang clan, and the arguing simply fueled their anger. A fierce fight broke out.

All kinds of Dragon Hunter techniques were unleashed.

"Kabaam!"

The Huang clan's formation was violently shaken.

"Kill them!"

The Huang clan cultivators were not afraid either. Dragon qi rose into the air as they dashed out of the formation to fight the Dragon Hunters.

The massive scale of the battle shook heaven and earth.

Many cultivators were in awe of the fierce fight.

"That is some fierce fight."

"Have they lost their minds? Why are they fighting so fiercely?"

"I heard it's because of an Ultimate Supreme Treasure."

"No way, an Ultimate Supreme Treasure? No wonder it's fierce."

Dragon qi rose and rumbled, and Dragon Hunting Spears were hurled at the opponents.

Draconic techniques and weapons created specifically to hunt dragons clashed.

The battle got so fiercer as it progressed that it overshadowed the moon and the sun.

The Dragon Hunter Leader and Huang Clan Leader could tell that something was off.

"What's going on? Why is the Huang clan accusing us of taking the Dragonslayer? They don't seem like they're also pretending," the Dragon Hunter Leader thought to himself.

"If they didn't take the Dragonslayer, who did?" The Huang Clan Leader was troubled by the question.

Then, a name appeared in their minds at the same time.

"Chu Kuangren!" 

They exchanged a quick glance and ordered their men to stop.

"Stop!" the Dragon Hunter Leader shouted, releasing a powerful aura that deterred his men.

Huang Clan Leader told his people to stop fighting as well.

"Huang Clan Leader, did you really not take the Dragonslayer?" the Dragon Hunter Leader asked.

The Huang Clan Leader revealed the fake Dragonslayer and scoffed, "This is the one we got. If you want it, you can have it."

"A fake."

A glint flashed in the Dragon Hunter Leader's eyes. He called Wang Yi over and asked, "Tell us what happened when you made the deal with Chu Kuangren. I want every detail."

"Yes, sir…"

After confirmation, Wang Yi was able to prove that he got the real Dragonslayer and not the fake.

The Huang Clan Leader also asked his men to reiterate the entire operation.

"Someone intervened and snatched the Dragonslayer away?"

"Yeah, but I got it back in the end."

"The men you sent to kill Wang Yi were intercepted too?"

"Yes." 

As the Huang Clan Leader thought about it, he found it strange.

The Dragon Hunter Leader took a deep breath, and his expression turned grim. "We've been fooled! Chu Kuangren!" 

The dead Dragon Hunters around him fueled his anger even more.

The Huang Clan Leader also got a general picture of what happened.

"With Chu Kuangren's weaponsmithing skills, it's a piece of cake for him to forge a fake. Chu Kuangren, you really fooled us all!"

Everyone else was confused.

However, some smarter ones finally realized the truth.

"Now I see. No wonder Chu Kuangren rejected us when we tried to negotiate with him the first time, he rejected us but agreed the second time. He's trying to play us all! He doesn't need to do anything but hand over the Dragonslayer for a ton of resources. He then took the Dragonslayer back and let us fight among ourselves. He killed two birds with one stone."

Wang Yi was furious but helpless. 

They did not have solid evidence to prove that Chu Kuangren was behind it.

Even if they did, Chu Kuangren got the Dragonslayer from the Huang clan.

The Dragon Hunters had nothing to do with it unless they were willing to fork out another pile of resources to trade with Chu Kuangren.

However, would Chu Kuangren agree this time?

"Damn it! Damn it!" Wang Yi was fuming, his eyes bloodshot. He was grateful for the mysterious figure who helped him escape, but it turned out to be part of a bigger plan.

A man of his word who treats people with sincerity? 

What nonsense!

"Leader, I will go to Chu Kuangren. Even if I have to sacrifice, I will bring back the Dragonslayer," Wang Yi said. 

He wanted to leave, but the Dragon Hunter Leader called him back. "Come back here!

"Do you think you're this match? One slash from him can kill ten of you."

"I…" Wang Yi was silenced and flustered.

"Leader, Chu Kuangren may be behind all this, but the Huang clan is also trying to trick us. We cannot let them go either," said another Dragon Hunter.

Then, the Dragon Hunters looked coldly at the Huang clan cultivators. 

The Huang clan cultivators were cautious as well.

Most of them did not know what Chu Kuangren was trying to achieve, but before them were the enemies who tried to kill them a second ago.

They wanted each other dead more than Chu Kuangren.

Right before another battle broke out, a vigorous murderous qi came from the sky.

A figure slowly descended.

It was a man with black robes, surrounded by Great Dao Daoist Law energy.

More importantly, he was a Monarch!

"Apocalypse Martial Ruler?" 

The Dragon Hunter Leader was shocked by the man's arrival.

The others were similarly shocked.

"Apocalypse Martial Ruler? Isn't he dead?"

"Did he come back to life?"

"I have no idea."

Apocalypse Martial Ruler turned a deaf ear at the debate about him. He looked at the Dragon Hunter Leader and Huang Clan Leader. 

"I'm here to stop you two from fighting. We should direct our attention to our common enemy."

"Common enemy?"

The Dragon Hunter Leader narrowed his eyes. "Are you referring to Chu Kuangren?"

"Yes."

"Why should we listen to you?" The Huang Clan Leader chuckled.

"It's because I have the perfect plan to deal with Chu Kuangren. After we kill him, you guys can get whatever you want."

"One Dragonslayer isn't enough for the both of us," the Huang Clan Leader said coldly.

"In that case, what about the Primal Infernal Dragon energy?"

His words shocked the Huang Clan Leader. "What did you say?"

"Chu Kuangren has the Primal Infernal Dragon energy. Kill him, and the Dragonslayer can go back to the Dragon Hunters while the Huang clan can get the Primal Infernal Dragon energy."

"Are you serious about it?"

"If you don't believe me, you can investigate what happened in the Dragon Tombs. Many dragons saw Chu Kuangren use the Primal Infernal Dragon's power back there."

The Huang Clan Leader pondered for a moment. "I'll accept your proposition."

"What's your plan? Chu Kuangren has three Monarchs supporting him. How confident are you?" the Dragon Hunter Leader asked.

"Don't worry. Everything is under control." 

The Apocalypse Martial Ruler grinned.
