Extreme Swell

A group of knights in golden armor could be seen roaring over. Their numbers were vast, resembling a golden torrent, and they moved at an incredible speed, quickly catching up to the Ten Thousand Dragon Nest. However, they didn't surpass it; instead, they chose to march alongside it.

When Long Chen caught sight of them, his eyes narrowed. These people were none other than the powerful members of the Golden Armor Knight Order. Leading them were a man and a woman. Among them, the woman was familiar to Long Chen—she was none other than Lu Qingshuang.

The other man was handsome, with a slender figure, sitting atop a warhorse and standing a head taller than Lu Qingshuang. He wore an ancient battle armor exuding a breathtaking aura, as if a dormant ancient beast had awoken. This battle armor was none other than the Cyan-Huang Battle Armor.

At present, this Cyan-Huang Battle Armor had acknowledged its master, its aura blending with the man's own. The man had fair skin and handsome features, but his gaze carried a hint of cunning. Between his brows, there was an arrogance born of confidence, which made people uneasy.

"Changfeng, the origin of this Ten Thousand Dragon Nest is unclear. Maybe we shouldn't provoke it," Lu Qingshuang advised as she gazed at the massive nest exuding boundless draconic power.

This confident man was none other than the top genius of the Saint Bright Divine Sect, Yue Changfeng. When the Golden Armor Knight Order had split into four directions to enter the Heavenly Vein Profound Realm, Lu Qingshuang led one of the teams. Meanwhile, the main force of the Golden Armor Knight Order was led by Yue Changfeng himself.

At that time, the entire Golden Armor Knight Order had two main objectives in entering the Heavenly Vein Profound Realm: finding the Cyan-Huang Battle Armor and the Spear of Slaughter. At this moment, the Spear of Slaughter hung at Yue Changfeng's side. Unlike the Cyan-Huang Battle Armor, the spear was covered in rust and didn't emit any aura.

However, Long Chen saw it at a glance. The rust on the surface of the spear carried a strong bloody aura. This was a powerful weapon of slaughter that had ended countless mighty lives. The Spear of Slaughter and the Cyan-Huang Battle Armor were created as a pair. They could unleash their strongest effects only when held by the same person.

Yue Changfeng obtained the Spear of Slaughter and reunited with Lu Qingshuang's group. He also acquired the Cyan-Huang Battle Armor. With these two divine weapons in hand, Yue Changfeng's confidence swelled to an extreme.

Sweeping through various geniuses along the way and slaying countless experts, he was already an unparalleled powerhouse. Coupled with the assistance of the two divine weapons, his actions were invincible. This made him even more arrogant and domineering, as if he could sweep through the entire Heavenly Vein Profound Realm.

Seeing Yue Changfeng's extreme arrogance, Lu Qingshuang subtly reminded him multiple times, but he completely ignored her. As time went on, he grew even more annoyed by her reminders.

Now, upon seeing the Ten Thousand Dragon Nest, Yue Changfeng immediately approached it, his provocation evident. Lu Qingshuang couldn't help but remind him once again.

"Qingshuang, your strength is growing, but your courage seems to be diminishing. Brother Changfeng possesses unparalleled power, not to mention the Cyan-Huang Battle Armor and the Spear of Slaughter in his hands. Who in the entire Heavenly Vein Profound Realm could be a match for Brother Changfeng?

Now is the time for our Golden Armor Knight Order to shine. Why do you seem to dampen Brother Changfeng's spirits at every turn? What is your intention?" After Lu Qingshuang's reminder, before Yue Changfeng could respond, a woman by his side spoke up.

The woman had a voluptuous figure, and despite her golden battle armor, she couldn't conceal her alluring curves. She was remarkably beautiful, with a coquettish air about her. Her peach blossom eyes carried a mesmerizing charm.

This woman kept addressing Yue Changfeng as "Brother Changfeng," a phrase that would make anyone's bones melt with its sweetness. If an average man were addressed in such a way, his soul might have been enchanted out of his body.

The look she directed towards Lu Qingshuang was evidently provocative. Her words carried a hint of sowing discord.

This woman's name was Tumeng. She was also a powerful figure sealed from the Chaos Era and was one of the leaders of the Four Knight Orders, holding a position similar to Lu Qingshuang's.

Whether it was Lu Qingshuang or Tumeng, both were admirers of Yue Changfeng. Therefore, Tumeng's targeting of Lu Qingshuang was not surprising.

"What do you mean?" Lu Qingshuang's expression darkened as she confronted this alluring woman's attempt to sow discord.

"I mean, what do you mean? We in the Knight Order are united, following Brother Changfeng without hesitation. We face any challenge, be it on the edge of a blade or in a sea of blood, without even a creased brow. Because we believe in Brother Changfeng's strength and his wisdom. He is our leader, and we should believe in him without reservation.

But you, always doubting him, undermining his confidence. Are you the leader, or is Brother Changfeng the leader?

Or perhaps? Do you want to replace Brother Changfeng and lead us instead?" Tumeng's lips curled into a cold smile as she spoke.

"You..." Lu Qingshuang was clearly no match in a verbal exchange with Tumeng. Looking at Tumeng's sinister smile, she trembled with anger.

"Enough, both of you, stop it!"

Seeing that the two were about to clash, Yue Changfeng spoke up:

"My Saint Bright Divine Sect has endured for many years, surviving in the midst of the pressures from various forces and enduring countless humiliations. Now, our era has arrived. We must make the name of the Golden Armor Knight Order resound through the heavens. From now on, anyone who encounters our Golden Armor Knight Order should either keep their distance or kneel and pay their respects."

Yue Changfeng's words were extremely arrogant, but they stirred the blood of the strong members of the Saint Bright Knight Order. They shouted Yue Changfeng's name loudly.

Observing this scene, Lu Qingshuang's eyes held a deep disappointment, and a sense of powerlessness overwhelmed her. Yue Changfeng was no longer the person he used to be, and the Golden Armor Knight Order was rapidly expanding under his leadership, their desires starting to cloud their judgment.

Suddenly, she felt a profound sadness and loneliness. Everyone else was caught up in the fervor, and she stood alone in clarity. It was an agonizing feeling.

She understood that although Yue Changfeng was strong now, she couldn't believe that he alone could sweep through the entire Heavenly Vein Profound Realm. If he incurred the wrath of others, the Golden Armor Knight Order would face inevitable destruction.

Suddenly, an image appeared in her mind—a face adorned with a mischievous smile. Despite being extremely powerful, that person lacked the demeanor of a true expert. His low-key nature, in stark contrast to Yue Changfeng's arrogance, created a distinct comparison.

"Whoosh."

Just then, a Golden Armor Knight, acting on Yue Changfeng's order, pretended to veer off course and, along with his lance, charged toward the Ten Thousand Dragon Nest.

This was an elite expert who had condensed six lifelines of their own Heavenly Veins. The divine radiance on his lance shimmered as he viciously thrust it at the protective aura surrounding the nest.

It was both a test and a provocation, a method that had been overused for countless years. Its purpose was to gauge the owner of the Ten Thousand Dragon Nest's response.

"Splurt."

As the man's lance struck the protective barrier of the nest, the Ten Thousand Dragon Nest trembled slightly, resounding with dragon roars. Countless dragon shadows converged, and with a powerful explosion, the man, his mount, and his lance shattered into pieces.

Yue Changfeng seemed surprised by the opponent's strength, as they dared to kill directly without leaving any room for negotiation. His anger surged.

"Buzz."

However, just as Yue Changfeng was about to retaliate, the Ten Thousand Dragon Nest suddenly deviated from its original course, hurtling toward them. Its ferocious draconic aura was like a tsunami, shattering the celestial barriers with a thunderous force.
