1583 The Beast King’s Order! The Lamentation of Souls!

As Xia Fan called out the name of Cid Raleigh, time seemed to mysteriously stop again. The wind stopped blowing, the earth stopped quaking, and the black fog released by the demon dragon stopped spreading. The world instantly fell silent.

Xia Fan heard Cid Raleigh’s laughter in his ear, a crazed laughter, like the ecstatic laughter of the Monkey King when it was suddenly freed from being imprisoned under the Five Fingers Mountain.

“Finally…after slumbering for so long, I can return to the Three Realms!” Cid Raleigh shouted, his voice trembling. “Leave it to me! I won’t disappoint you!”

Xia Fan was stunned, his hairs standing on end. He felt like he had let a demon out of the bottle, and this demon was about to explode and conquer the entire world.

!!

Boom!

In a flash, Xia Fan felt something enter his body, making his blood pump faster and his body burn up like he was on fire.

At the same time, his strength began to soar crazily. This was a powerful mental energy, and the abundant mental energy caused his eyes to erupt with light. Then, strengthened by this mental energy, Xia Fan was able to see the soul of the Second Son of the Flame Soul. In the mental world, that ugly monster was as savage as ever, brimming with a gruesome desire to kill. Xia Fan could clearly sense that the Second Son existed to extinguish life, holding an immense loathing for the world.

Countless creatures converged on the area, from weak mice to the Lion Vultures of the three talents of Subduing Demon City. Their eyes were red as they charged at the Second Son.

Their life forces began to burn. A large-eared gray rabbit, its body covered in scarlet flames, charging at the demon dragon and bit down with its front teeth, tearing off a scale. It then used its claws in an attempt to tear open a wound so that it could crawl into the Second Son’s body.

The gray rabbit soon exploded, blood and guts flying everywhere, transforming into some powerfully acidic substance that splashed onto the demon dragon’s flesh. It ate away at his muscles, releasing white plumes of smoke.

A mottle python crawled onto the Second Son’s back and slithered through a wound into the dragon’s body. It also burned up its life force and exploded inside the dragon.

Crazy!

In the blink of an eye, all of the animals in the world went crazy, using their lives and souls to attack the dragon.

Xia Fan had learned some methods for controlling beasts, but he had never seen a sparrow turn into a bone-clinging maggot, its two little eyes turning red. It clearly had no combat power, but it burned up its life in order to harm its foe!

It had to be understood that this was a demonized black dragon, standing at the apex of beasts and surpassing them. It was basically a super lifeform, so how could those rabbits and sparrows dare to attack such a terrifying lifeform?

The reason could only be one: they were being driven by a lifeform even more powerful than the demon dragon!

The lifeform that was driving all these beasts to burn up their life force and attack the dragon was seemingly Xia Fan…

When Cid Raleigh possessed Xia Fan, Xia Fan seemed to gain a transcendent status. All beasts in the world seemed to be under his control, a control that extended all the way to their souls. He just needed to softly whistle to have these beasts willing to die for him.

This was a scene that could make the Three Realms collapse. Even Mythical Beasts like the Lion Vultures couldn’t escape these commands. They roared, their bodies blazing, their feathers and graceful bodies turning to dust. But they showed no hesitation, faithfully answering the call of the god of death.

As for the Second Son, he clearly wasn’t something Xia Fan could control, but his soul was under a pressure of an even higher level. He rolled around in pain while screeching as if a million maggots were crawling around his body and gnawing away at every inch of his flesh and organs.

The situation was far beyond what Xia Fan had anticipated. He thought that Cid Raleigh would grant him some kind of combat power, turning him into Superman or something, after which he would instantly kill the demon dragon with some unstoppable attack.

In reality, Cid Raleigh wasn’t doing anything. The signal emitted by his seventh brain region had caused all the creatures in the world to crazily attack the Second Son of the Flame Soul, using their lives to kill it. If one creature wasn’t enough, then one hundred! One thousand! Ten thousand!

If ordinary creatures weren’t enough, then even those three Lion Vultures would give up their lives!

“Jinbao!” Dongfang He screamed as he watched his Lion Vulture that had been with him since he was a child turn into dust. This successor of a Demon Slayer Clan began to cry heartfelt tears of sorrow, as if his heart had shattered.

“Living creatures are very mysterious, possessing an inconceivable power. What I have unleashed is the highest level of attack in the world, the Lamentation of Souls! The life force and souls of these creatures is being traded for the soul of the Second Son of the Flame Soul. After this battle, the Second Son will cease to exist. He will be wiped out from the Three Realms, never to be reborn again, for I will have destroyed his soul!” Cid Raleigh’s voice resounded in Xia Fan’s mind.

When Cid Raleigh found that Xia Fan was too shocked to respond, he said, “This ability is called the Beast King’s Order. You recently awakened it, and I simply used your ability as the foundation to strengthen it. If I hadn’t possessed you, you also could have used the Beast King’s Order, but it wouldn’t have been this strong. You would have only been able to control the ordinary beasts.”

Xia Fan swallowed. “Why? Why can you command the beasts to attack the dragon? Don’t dragons stand at the very top of the animal pyramid?”

Cid Raleigh smiled. “Correct. Dragons do stand at the top of the animal pyramid, but where I stand is even higher than that of the Second Son of the Flame Soul. When I combine my power with yours, I can exceed the Second Son. I’ll be honest, even his father is beneath me.”

The Flame Soul was Scarlet Blaze Demon King Stanley’s mount, and Cid Raleigh had an even higher status?

Xia Fan was suspicious, feeling like something was wrong. Why did Cid Raleigh have a higher status than a demon dragon? Humans and dragons were different species. For example, between Xia Fan and Pearl, could one say that one of them had the higher status? Of course not, for one was a human and one was a dragon. They had two completely different biological systems.

“Could it be…you’re…”

“There’s no need to guess. I’m also a demon dragon, looking much the same as the Second Son of the Flame Soul. As you humans would say, I’m rather ugly.”

Xia Fan was stunned. “Since you’re of the same race as the Second Son, why are you killing him?”

“It’s very simple. Although we’re of the same race, we’re of different factions. You’re a human, but you’ve killed lots of humans, right?” Cid Raleigh countered.

Xia Fan was speechless. Being part of the same race truly wasn’t a good reason. He was a human, but he was most proficient at killing other humans. If being part of the same race was enough to make everyone get along, world peace would have been achieved long ago!

“I’ve been possessed by a demon dragon? What’s going on here!?”

Xia Fan realized how serious the situation was. A dragon had run into his mind, and it was a demon dragon, a demon that controlled the power of darkness! This was utterly bizarre!

“That’s why I said that you’re an exception among the Skywings. You’re different from the rest of your clan. It was my good fortune to meet you,” Cid Raleigh said happily.

“When the Second Son of the Flame Soul dies, his domain will crumble. You and you friends will escape this calamity, but you must remember that those old fellows of Subduing Demon City will definitely investigate what happened here. It’s best if it’s not found that you can be possessed by a demon dragon.”

“And if I’m found out?” Xia Fan asked.

“You’ll die,” Cid Raleigh said nonchalantly.
