The Dragon Master Clan members' eyes were glued to the flame light beast as soon as it appeared.
They were used to seeing all kinds of guardian beasts and supernatural beasts their entire life, and yet,
this was the first time they saw such a strange and fantastic beast. Or at least, they acted like this.
There was a reason they were acting this way, though. Those from the spiritual race with some
experience, could see at a glance that the beast in front of them had a perfect body. Whether it was the
strength, speed, flying ability, or attributes, all of them seemed to be perfectly integrated into one beast,
which should be impossible, no matter how high grade the dragon beast was.
This beast seemed just as strong as the legendary beast of the Dragon Master Clan that had appeared
earlier—the Holy-blood Dragon King. In other words, this flame light beast seemed similar in power and
talent to a legendary guardian beast.
However, even the Holy-blood Dragon King couldn't subjugate those powerful guardian beasts. As for
the flame light beast, that was as easy as lifting a finger.
All the guardian beasts seemed to have lost their minds when the flame light beast appeared. But now,
they finally returned to their ferocious state.
At the time, Marcia had already flown down from the air and landed beside Rocky. She looked at the
flame light beast in front of her with surprise and awe, for she could tell that it was by no means an
ordinary beast.
"What's this, Basil?" Marcia couldn't help but ask Rocky. In her opinion, Rocky already had two spirit-
manipulated beasts that were as powerful as guardian beasts, and he could control them at the same
time. Coupled with the ancient spiritual beast appeared before, now there was another beast at the
same level as a legendary guardian beast. It was an unprecedented situation, one that never even
entered her dreams!
"This is Uriah, my first spirit-manipulated beast. You've seen it before." Rocky casually shrugged as if it
was normal to have such a majestic beast above his other powerful beasts.
"This is your first beast? It looks... different." Marcia's beautiful face was slack in astonishment, as she
tried to remember when she had met Rocky's first beast. It was unbelievable that the lovely spirit-
manipulated beast had grown into such a powerful existence now.
However, it was hard for Marcia to understand why a seemingly ordinary spirit-manipulated beast
would grow into a legendary guardian beast. It looked so much stronger now!
Of course, Marcia was not the only one who was surprised. All the Dragon Master Clan members
present were also shocked. It was supposed to be beyond difficult for a human to have many spirit-
manipulated beasts that were comparable to or even stronger than the guardian beasts. And yet,
Rocky seemed to have a surplus of those with no difficulty!
At that moment, the Dragon Master Clan members wondered if Rocky was truly human. Since he had
many beasts, not to mention how strong he was, they all felt like he had already surpassed their
perception of humans.
"Is this guy really human?" Rex hissed furiously. He was so angry that he spoke between tightly gritted
teeth, and it wouldn't have been a surprise if his teeth shattered into pieces from the pressure. It
seemed that from the very beginning, Rocky's existence was destined to humiliate him. He was the
Dragon Master Clan's patriarch, but he couldn't even win against this lowly human! He could not face
his comrades after this.
"Prince Basil is indeed an extraordinary human. It seems that I have underestimated him before." Even
Moira, who used to despise Rocky, praised him sincerely. But in the same breath, she glared at her
opponent and said, "You're doomed to lose, Rex."
The sudden appearance of another spirit-manipulated beast that was as powerful as a legendary
guardian beast significantly boosted the Mu Clan's morale.
On the other hand, the Dragon Master Clan's elder, who Uriah had just knocked into the air, felt
helpless. He knew that there was no chance for him to beat Rocky when he saw Uriah was protecting
Rocky and Marcia.
Soon, under the influence of Uriah's appearance, the battle became one-sided, with all the advantage
on the Mu Clan's side. They slaughtered the members that Rex led, who soon retreated one after
another.
However, just as the Mu Clan was about to win, a black mass of people suddenly appeared from not far
away. Rex and his people looked on with hope as it seemed that their reinforcements had finally
arrived.
"They are finally here! Today, I will drive all the members of the Mu Clan to death." Seeing that the
reinforcements had arrived, Rex immediately turned to Moira with a smug smile.
"Damn it!" Moira's face froze in alarm when she saw the trouble that would soon come upon them.
Due to the arrival of the new reinforcements, the Mu Clan's advantage quickly disappeared, and they
fell into a stalemate with their enemies.
The battle grew more and more intense, and the casualties increased every second. Soon, a loud voice
resounded from deep within the Dead Valley. "That's enough! Stop!"
The voice was deep and rumbling, like an earthquake that could shake heaven and earth.
Simultaneously, almost all the members present stopped at once, and their heads swiveled to the
direction of the Dead Valley.
A light shadow came from there, emitting intense golden light. It was like the arrival of a divine Buddha,
and it gave off an overwhelming feeling of formidable power.
"Father!" As soon as Marcia saw the flying golden figure, she was overjoyed, and her eyes watered
and turned red.
"Father?" Rocky looked on in shock, as he watched the flying golden figure.
Meanwhile, as soon as Moira saw the golden figure, she paused in her movements and quickly flew
towards it.
Soon, the golden figure landed beside Marcia and Rocky, while Moira rushed over from where she had
paused.
After the figure's golden hue dissipated, Rocky found that it resembled a human being. He didn't look
as ugly and ferocious as any member of the Dragon Master Clan. Instead, he was more elegant and
sophisticated, and the way the figure moved revealed that he was a well-educated gentleman.
However, he also had an astonishing aura beyond all the clan members present, including Rex and the
elder. The figure seemed more powerful than anyone in the entire valley.
"Malcom, how dare you leave the Dead Valley without permission? Have you forgotten that you are not
allowed to do that? You have made a promise that you will never step out of the Dead Valley for the
rest of your life." As soon as Rex saw the figure, his face darkened in anger.
This person was Malcom, the former patriarch of the Mu Clan, who fell in love with a human woman in
the past. That woman gave birth to Marcia.
As soon as the Dragon Master Clan members present, including Rex's followers, saw Malcom, most of
them knelt respectfully. Even the elders of the Dragon Master Clan nodded slightly to show their
respect. This action showed how highly the Dragon Master Clan perceived Malcom.
Since Malcom was the patriarch of the Dragon Master Clan in the past, most of the clan's members
looked up to him. Thousands of people worshiped him back then. Thus, even though he had made a
big mistake and violated the taboo of the spiritual race, most of them still supported him. If he wanted to
do something, no one would have any objection. However, Malcom accepted punishment in the end,
and he abdicated from the position of patriarch. Later, he voluntarily stayed inside the Dead Valley, and
promised never to step foot outside again.
When Rex confronted him about his promise, he didn't look the least bit guilty. Instead, Malcom
appeared relaxed and collected as if he didn't care about Rex at all. He looked straight at Marcia and
Moira, sighed slightly, and said, "For so many years, you have suffered a lot. If I hadn't made a mistake
in the past, the Mu Clan wouldn't have fallen. However, I don't regret falling in love with Marcia's
mother."
