Chapter 189 - 189: Lu Jun Arrives (Bonus)

Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!

Lu Jun lay forward on theNight Thunder Dream Beast'ssoft mane, his eyes half-closed as the roaring winds surged from all directions, turning everything into a blur.

Thesummoned beast's speedwas still increasing, rising fromCommander-level velocityto a speedapproaching the Monarch level.

In just a few minutes, theNight Thunder Dream Beasthad already dashed out ofMagic City's central district, leaving the city behind and entering the wilderness.

The surrounding scenery grew increasinglyprimal and untamed, yetno demon beast dared to block the pathof aCommander-level demon.

Boom!

Suddenly, Lu Jun heard athunderous rumblingahead, prompting him to look up.

In the vast, openwilderness, arail trainwas rushing forward with a deafening roar. Apale-yellow magical barrier, like a vast canopy, extended over therailway path, perfectly shielding the track all the way to thenext city's barrier.

At this moment, theNight Thunder Dream Beast, its limbs a blur of motion, effortlesslycaught upwith the speeding train, runningalongside itbefore steadily pulling ahead.

Itsrear caught up to the train's front, and in the next moment, itovertook it completely, vanishing into the distance.

Inside the train, afather and sonwere seated near a window. The child,innocent and carefree, was playing when he caught a glimpse of theNight Thunder Dream Beastoutside.

Excited, he pointed and shouted,"A monster! A monster is coming!"

Soon, theother passengerstook notice as well, turning their attention toward the window.

They gazed in awe at themysterious, noble beastthatrushed past them, along with theyoung manon its back, clad in ablack-and-gold coat.

Exclamations ofshock and admirationfilled the train car.

Thefatherquickly lifted his child into his arms and gently corrected him, saying,"That's a Mage's summoned beast, not a demon."

Perhaps it was theelegant and majestic appearanceof Lu Jun'sNight Thunder Dream Beast, but instead offear, the passengers looked on withenvy and admiration.

Lu Jun did not stop. He searched his memory for directions andheaded straight toward Bai Mountain in Hangzhou.

Injust over ten minutes, hereached the towering, grand city of Hangzhou.

TheDream Beasttruly lived up to its reputation asthe ultimate mount.

Compared to thecity rail, which would have takenover two hours, he had shortened the journey byseveral times!

Moreover, theNight Thunder Dream Beast's breathing remained steady, showing that it wasnowhere near its endurance limit.

"Hangzhou... I'm here."

"Zhu Meng, you'd better not make a move!"

At that moment,Tang Yuewas beinghunted downin Bai Town, with theendless Bai Mountain rangein the distance.

"To seek the dragon, divide the gold, observe the mountain's coils. Each layer of coils is a layer of obstacles. If the gate is closed, danger lurks ahead. Only when the mountains fold over each other, layer by layer, forming interconnected caves, can one truly hide the massive body of the Totem Black Serpent."

HadTang Yuenottrusted Zhu Meng's wordslater in the story and lured theBlack Serpent back to West Lake, itcould have safely completed its moltingwithout interruption.

Boom! Boom! Boom!Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!

Nine Flame Pythonscoiled and danced in the air, bombardingTang Yue's positionwith relentless attacks.

Meanwhile,layers upon layers of intertwined plantssurged up from below,binding her from all sides.

In the next moment, the figure of the alluring mature woman flickered—her entire body faded and split into multiple shadows that darted away at high speed.

The remaining wooden structures fueled the raging flames, igniting a sea of fire that distorted the air. Rocks melted into molten lava, dark red magma spreading everywhere, transforming the land into a hellish scene.

Tang Yue flashed to another spot, barely catching her breath when a sky-reaching tornado suddenly ascended. Reacting swiftly, her fair, slender hand clenched into a fist, flames coiling around her body as her wavy hair lifted. With a powerful strike—Flame Fist: Nine Palaces she forcefully dispersed the whirlwind.

But immediately after, another wave of mid-tier spells rained down from above.

In the sky, a Winged Blade Sparrow, a warrior-level summoned beast with a wingspan of over ten meters, circled above. Three or four people remained cautious, keeping their distance from the ground, opting to bombard her with magic instead of attempting to capture her alive.

Among the Judicators present, one person stood out to Lu Jun it was none other than Dongfang Ming of the Fire Institute!

Born with a natural gift for rapid casting, his firepower seemed inexhaustible. He unleashed Flame Fist after Flame Fist, suppressing his opponents with overwhelming intensity.

Meanwhile, Tang Yue struggled to defend herself below. She had to restrain herself, unable to kill members of the Judgment Court. Otherwise, with a single Heavenly Flame Funeral, any number of mid-tier mages would be reduced to ashes.

Left with no choice, she found a brief opening and unleashed a high-tier Shadow spell Night Dominance:Night Dominion!

Woooo—

Thick darkness surged forth, instantly engulfing the entire mountain forest, blocking out the sky.

From midair, the Judgment Court mages could no longer see the ground clearly. Fearing that their mounts, the Winged Blade Sparrows, might be paralyzed by Shadow Nails, thereby losing air superiority, they quickly maneuvered their summons higher.

Peering down, they frowned. The dark domain was too vast, and with nightfall as a natural cover, Tang Yue's figure was nowhere to be found.

When the black mist finally dispersed, the area below was empty.

"No need to panic." Dongfang Ming waved his hand calmly. "She won't get far. After casting so many high-tier spells, her magic energy is running low. Keep pursuing."

Moments later, in a remote wilderness near Hangzhou, explosions erupted once more.

Tang Yue had been intercepted again. Looking up at the aerial summons, she felt a sense of despair. If not for these creatures tracking her movements, she would have long shaken off her pursuers.

Unfortunately, she was being restrained by the Judgment Court members, unable to reach the Winged Blade Sparrow above.

Boom!

The battle continued for a long time. Tang Yue's shadow magic was completely depleted, and she could no longer escape. Wounds covered her body, and more Judgment Court members kept arriving.

To make matters worse, the Totem Pearl Mystic Black Serpent in her arms signaled danger high-tier mages and commander-level enemies were closing in fast.

Before long, a figure streaked across the sky. Wu Pingjing, the Captain of Zhu Meng's guards, descended with his Six-Winged Wind Wings!

He shouted coldly, "Judicator Tang Yue, stop resisting! Surrender now and hand over the Mystic Serpent. You can still redeem yourself!"

"Is this the end?"

Tang Yue staggered, half-kneeling on the ground. Her delicate face was filled with sorrow as she bit down on a strand of her disheveled, wavy hair. Gazing at the surrounding mages both above and below, a deep loneliness overwhelmed her, as if she were standing alone against the entire world.

"No!" She refused to accept this fate and shouted at everyone, "I will never let you take it!"

"You have fallen into heresy. Prepare to face judgment!"

Wu Pingjing showed no mercy. Standing atop his Sky Hawk, he began drawing Star Constellations. Star patterns interwove, brilliant diamond-like Star Nodes shimmering, while an icy chill descended upon the land.

Ice Realm:Ice Coffin!

A high-tier Ice Element spell—level One!

Crack! Crack!

Under the night sky, cold winds howled through the mountain forest, instantly covering everything in frost. From the heavens, a coffin-shaped ice mountain materialized, plummeting toward Tang Yue's position with devastating force!

The sheer power of the spell created shockwaves, causing the surrounding air to explode outward. The overwhelming frost energy permeated the area, ice shards swirling violently.

Tang Yue no longer had enough magic energy to counter it with Heavenly Flame Funeral.

Seeing this, she stood up resolutely, biting her lip and facing it head-on.

Just as the ice coffin was about to crush her, the Totem Pearl Mystic Serpent in her embrace stirred, ready to reveal itself—

Splash!

Suddenly, the sound of rushing water echoed through the air. A cascading heavenly waterfall descended from above, forming a translucent, azure-blue water barrier before Tang Yue. The liquid shimmered with mist, radiating an ethereal glow unbreakable and firm!

Boom!

The Frozen Coffin crashed down, its immense force bending the water screen. The frost energy seeped into the shimmering blue flow, slowly freezing it layer by layer. Crack! Crack! In mere moments, the entire cascade was turned into solid ice.

But the brief delay was enough for a shadowy figure to flash beneath the descending ice coffin.

A mysterious, colossal silhouette streaked through the battlefield. A strong, well-defined arm extended, wrapping around Tang Yue's slender yet voluptuous waist and pulling her into the shadows.

In the next instant, the shadow gracefully leaped, carrying her away effortlessly.

Suddenly, the mountains trembled violently, the earth shaking as a massive dust cloud surged skyward. The shockwave sent mid-tier Judgment Court mages stumbling, while the ice mountain stood firm at the center.

Wu Pingjing's gaze sharpened, and he roared, "Who dares to interfere with the Judgment Court's actions?!"

Nearby, the Night Thunder Dream Beast materialized, its back carrying Lu Jun, who firmly held Tang Yue in his grasp. Gazing up at the vast assembly of Judgment Court members, his voice was calm yet undeniably commanding:

"Who dares lay a hand on her?!"
