"Parker, you're finally awake!"
The old man was suddenly moved to tears.
After the dragon corpse opened its eyes, the confusion in its eyes quickly disappeared, and the huge dragon body transformed into a young man named Jie'ao in just a moment.
He slowly glanced around and let out a long sigh.
"Has the dragon race really become like this?"
"You can't even handle a stupid human, you're really useless."
Alarm bells rang in Xu Fan's mind. He held the Demon-Slaying Sword in one hand and the Demon-Subduing Sword in the other.
The pressure on him was even greater after other dragons transformed into their dragon forms.
However, when the person in front of him was in the form of a dragon, Xu Fan did not feel that he was dangerous. But when he transformed into a human figure and stood in front of him, Xu Fan suddenly felt that the level of danger had increased significantly.
"Come on, let me see what humans are like nowadays."
Xu Fan did not reply. Two figures appeared, and then two dragon shadows flashed from the two swords, suddenly attacking the figure in front of him.
"Two dragons playing with a pearl!"
However, faced with the overwhelming sword energy, Parker simply clenched his fist with one hand, bent his knee slightly, and suddenly threw a punch at Xu Fan.
"Bang!"
The shadow of the fist collided with the shadow of the sword, and the sword shadow vanished instantly.
Xu Fan took more than ten steps back before suddenly stopping.
"Tick-tock!"
The sound of blood hitting the ground could be heard, and beads of blood slowly dripped from Parker's hand.
"Not bad, you are much better than us good-for-nothing juniors."
Xu Fan didn't say anything, but instead swung his sword again and charged towards the figure in front of him.
"A white rainbow pierces the sun!"
This is the most powerful sword move among the Huangting Sword Manual that Xu Fan currently knows.
A white light shot towards Parker at lightning speed.
Having learned from his previous experience, Parker did not take Xu Fan's attack head-on. Instead, he slowly retreated while continuously throwing punches to neutralize the force of the sword strike.
Seeing that Parker was at a disadvantage, Xu Fan pressed his advantage, constantly changing the sword techniques on his two longswords.
Parker, on the other hand, looked somewhat disheveled, constantly dodging the sword light in Xu Fan's hand.
In the back and forth, the two had already exchanged hundreds of blows.
Parker wiped the blood from his face and grinned maliciously, saying, "Is that all you've got?"
Xu Fan's heart grew even heavier. Although Parker had been injured during those hundreds of moves, with blood seeping from his body everywhere.
However, only Xu Fan, who had faced Parker head-on, knew that despite Parker's numerous wounds, none of them were fatal.
On the contrary, Parker gradually figured out the pattern of Xu Fan's moves in these hundred or so moves. He went from being suppressed by Xu Fan at the beginning to being able to fight back, and even hold his own against Xu Fan.
However, during this time, Xu Fan felt that Parker in front of him was like a mountain, and he could not find any way to break through.
To defeat him head-on, unless...
Just as Xu Fan was thinking this, Parker's huge fist was already in front of Xu Fan.
"Little one, shouldn't it be my turn now?"
Xu Fan raised his sword, intending to block Parker's attack.
But Parker's fist seemed to have eyes, suddenly drawing an arc in the air and striking Xu Fan heavily.
"Bang."
With the physique of a god-level warrior, pure physical attacks are completely ineffective against Xu Fan's defense.
Xu Fan used the backward movement to dissipate the force on his body.
"Hey, not bad."
Parker's eyes lit up, as if he had discovered something new and interesting, and the light in his eyes gradually intensified.
"Then try this punch of mine again!"
Parker's fist somehow bypassed the sword in Xu Fan's hand and landed heavily on Xu Fan's body.
However, after this attack, Xu Fan felt as if his internal organs had shifted.
A sweet taste rose in his throat, and blood slowly seeped from the corner of his mouth.
Not far away, seeing that Parker had gained the upper hand, the old man finally smiled.
"Parker was once the Dragon Emperor's number one warrior."
"The fact that the dragons were able to retreat safely here back then is partly thanks to Parker!"
Xu Fan slowly stood up from the ground, preparing to draw his sword and fight again, when a low voice came from behind him:
"elder brother."
Upon hearing this voice, Xu Fan instantly calmed down.
If it were just me, even if I couldn't defeat Parker, escaping from here wouldn't be difficult.
But what would happen to Sophia if I left?
Over the past few days, Xu Fan has truly come to regard her as his younger sister.
In such a crisis, it's natural not to want Sofia to take risks.
Xu Fan suddenly swung his sword, and two afterimages appeared out of thin air behind him, charging towards Parker with long fangs and claws.
Upon seeing the two afterimages, Parker dropped his flippant expression and instantly became serious.
"Bang."
Three figures collided suddenly in the sky, two of the phantoms slowly dissipated, while Parker landed on the ground.
When I looked up again, Xu Fan was nowhere to be seen.
The old man silently approached Parker: "Lord Parker, should I send men to chase after those two?"
Parker narrowed his eyes slightly, looked in the direction Xu Fan had left, and slowly shook his head:
"No."
The old man responded respectfully.
Parker turned and walked deeper into the Dragonbone Desert:
"Tell me about the current situation of the dragon race."
Upon hearing that Parker wanted to hear about the history of the dragons over the years, the old man was overwhelmed with emotion and slowly recounted to Parker the events that had occurred since the dragons entered the area.
"So the dragon race has actually reached this level over the years."
The old man was somewhat ashamed and looked at Parker in front of him, saying:
"It's our incompetence..."
Parker waved his hand: "Never mind, you've already put in a lot of effort to revive me."
"I see that a few people were injured earlier. Why don't you go and treat their wounds?"
Before Parker woke up, Xu Fan had used his sword to defeat all of them. He even found the weakness in the formation of the young man who had formed the array earlier, and now his injuries were quite severe.
The old man responded and slowly walked outside.
Parker stood there with his eyes closed, and after a long while, he finally let out a soft sigh.
"How did things get to this point?"
As the commotion outside the city subsided, the commotion inside the city also gradually subsided.
The pale-faced Dragon Emperor stood before the throne and coldly spoke:
"As expected, a dead soul is just a dead soul; it's been all these years and it's still useless."
