Fantasy: Ten Dragons Compete for the Throne, I, the Villain, Choose to Play it Off

Southern Divine Land.

Near an ancient city, the entire city was magnificent and imposing, like a giant dragon coiled on the earth, filled with a terrifying aura.

The dark red walls bear countless knife marks, like scars, bearing the marks of time.

This is a relatively famous ancient city in the Southern Divine Continent. Because it is backed by a vein of divine stones, and because of the unique properties of the divine stones, countless beings come here to search for treasures or to gamble, hoping to soar to the sky.

At that moment, at the entrance of the ancient city, a tall man in a black robe walked in with the flow of people. The man had a cold face and a cold temperament. He exuded a fierce aura, which made countless people around him dare not approach.

This resulted in the man being surrounded by empty space, creating a stark contrast with the crowded people around him.

"It's such a pity that I didn't kill Bai Xiaoxiao this time. Otherwise, if I had devoured her body, I might have been able to enter the Void Realm."

Su Bai walked towards the ancient city, speaking to Liu Ruyan in his heart.

After six years of accumulation, and with the help of the Heavenly Demon Art, Su Bai devoured the essence of countless geniuses, allowing him to truly enter the ranks of top geniuses. His cultivation also advanced by leaps and bounds, reaching the ninth level of the Enlightenment Realm, and he was only one step away from the Void Realm.

His cultivation level is not weak even among top geniuses. Although he cannot reach the first tier, the great era is approaching, the Great Dao of the entire Nine Netherworld is manifesting, and the spiritual energy is abundant.

This has led to many prodigies breaking through one after another. Currently, the top tier of prodigies has entered the Void Realm, while the second tier of prodigies has reached the late stage of the Enlightenment Realm.

Su Bai is considered one of the best in the second tier, only slightly behind the first tier.

"Bai Xiaoxiao's talent is second only to Hu Meng in the White Tiger Clan. The White Tiger Clan will definitely arrange a guardian to protect her. Besides, you are no longer the well-known person you once were. Now that you are infamous, these forces will definitely be wary of you."

Liu Ruyan said with a helpless expression.

Why not go to someone like Bai Xiaoxiao, a top genius among all races? Such a genius would surely have a protector, so killing her would be no easy task.

Unless there is a strong person of equal strength to hold off the opponent's guardians, there is absolutely no chance.

If they hadn't run fast, they might have perished at the hands of the opposing guardians.

"That damned Jin Xiaotian."

Su Bai was furious at the thought that his secret had been exposed because of Jin Xiaotian.

His cultivation of the Devouring Heaven Demon Art was exposed because of Jin Xiaotian.

If it weren't for Jin Xiaotian, his secret would never have been exposed, and naturally, it wouldn't have been known to everyone.

This made Su Bai extremely frustrated. He had originally planned to make a fortune quietly, gradually improve his cultivation, and eventually become an astonishing figure. Who knew that he would be discovered halfway through and have his plan nipped in the bud.

"Be more careful next time. If you want to kill the prodigies of these super powers, you must find a good place. Otherwise, once you alert the guardians of these prodigies, you will eventually capsize in the gutter."

Liu Ruyan said somewhat weakly.

Although her apprentice has made rapid progress recently, he is unable to control himself and is temporarily unable to be patient.

Especially when encountering those geniuses from super powers, they simply cannot control themselves and never think about the other party's guardians. This has led to several encounters with the other party's guardians, almost resulting in them being killed.

If Liu Ruyan hadn't regained some of her strength and used some secret techniques, they would have died at the hands of those guardians long ago.

“Master, this disciple naturally understands this principle.”

Su Bai smiled and said, "But you don't need to worry about these things anymore. As long as we get the Heavenly Dream Demon Flower inside and you are fully revived, those guardians are nothing to you with your cultivation level. At most, those guardians are only at the Saint Realm. How could they be a match for Master?" Hearing this, Liu Ruyan was still somewhat happy.

They came here for the Heavenly Dream Flower. Not long ago, a secret realm appeared in this place, and the Heavenly Dream Flower was found there.

The Heavenly Dream Demon Flower is an extremely unique natural treasure that can nourish the soul and restore its injuries. As long as there is a wisp of remnant soul left, it can recover in a short time.

In a sense, the Heavenly Dream Demon Flower is almost equivalent to a chance for resurrection. As long as you have the Heavenly Dream Demon Flower, even if your original body is completely destroyed, you can recover by relying on this flower.

"We still can't be careless. It's best to be cautious. The Heavenly Dream Demon Flower is no ordinary rare treasure. This time, many people will definitely be strengthened."

Liu Ruyan spoke up to remind her.

Although she was very happy, she did not become complacent or lose her head in her joy.

She was well aware of the value of the Heavenly Dream Flower; once it appeared, it would inevitably attract countless super powers to fight over it.

Aside from the Heavenly Dream Flower, it is not the most important thing in this secret realm; there are many other rare treasures among them.

These rare and precious materials are enough to tempt the major powers, which means that the competition will inevitably be fierce. If they are not careful, they may very well capsize in a ditch.

"No matter how great the difficulties we encounter, I will help Master to snatch the Heavenly Dream Demon Flower and help Master fulfill his wish."

Su Bai said with a serious expression and a firm gaze.

The Heavenly Dream Demon Flower was far too important to them.

If Liu Ruyan can fully recover, then he will have a Saint-level expert protecting him.

In that case, if he encounters a so-called prodigy or genius, he might be able to kill them and then devour their essence.

He could even rapidly improve his cultivation level through his master, Liu Ruyan.

In the past, he had almost killed those geniuses several times, but he always failed because they had protectors.

Thinking of this, Su Bai couldn't help but get excited, wishing he could enter that secret realm, snatch the Heavenly Dream Demon Flower, and help his master Liu Ruyan recover.

In this way, he would have an incredibly powerful trump card in his hand.

"I hope I can obtain the Heavenly Dream Flower."

Liu Ruyan thought to herself.

She had been waiting for this Heavenly Dream Flower for far too long. As long as she could obtain it, she would be able to recover immediately.

"When I recover, it will also be time for me to leave him. But should I just kill Su Bai? If I leave him and tell Su Dingtian, maybe Su Dingtian won't take action against me out of respect for him."

Liu Ruyan thought to herself.

Once he recovers, he will definitely leave Su Bai. There is no other reason than that it is too dangerous for him to stay by Su Bai's side.

That would make them an enemy of the entire world!

If people were to find out about his relationship with Su Bai, he would undoubtedly suffer a severe blow. Although the Saint Realm is top-tier in the Nine Netherworld, and there are many who would try to eliminate him, the main reason is that he feels he sees no hope in staying by Su Bai's side.
