My Wife Turns Out to be an Empress of the Dynasty-Chapter 508: From Pursuit to Flight
The Dragon Sovereign was an experienced Saint Stage practitioner, significantly stronger than a typical peak Saint Stage expert. To resolve an opponent of the same rank with a single strike was somewhat excessive.
Mo Li pondered whether, if he were at the peak Saint Stage, he could achieve such a feat. After careful consideration, he realized it might be beyond his capability.
"This is the true power of the Dragon Sovereign? I've witnessed it today!" Mo Li thought with deep admiration.
Legends of the Dragon Sovereign had circulated in the Earthly Realm for a long time. Though he was also a Saint Stage practitioner, Dragon Sovereign's strength was on an entirely different level from ordinary Saint Stage experts. Mo Li, who had previously harbored doubts, was now convinced.
"An ancient dragon?!"
On the other side, the Thunder Clan Holy Son, in his Wrath of Thunder state, immediately sensed the change. His mind cleared instantly. Without a moment's thought, his only impulse was to escape!
He needed to get out of this damned place!
Encountering successive obstacles in the Earthly Realm, he hadn't even figured out his exact location before being forced into a corner. This Earthly Realm was extraordinarily problematic!
Thunder Escape!
The Thunder Clan Holy Son did not hesitate. He repelled Hei Xiao, who was entangled with him, and transformed into a bolt of lightning, rapidly escaping the battlefield.
Using Thunder Escape, his speed was astonishing, covering several miles in the blink of an eye. Even Mo Li, who had entered the Dunjia state, could not catch up, let alone the Yaksha Clan, which was not skilled in pursuit.
Hei Xiao, the top warrior of the Yaksha Clan, had no solution for this. Mo Li also abandoned the idea of pursuing after noting the distance Thunder Clan Holy Son had covered in Thunder Escape.
Only Dragon Sovereign remained at the original spot, transforming into a streak of golden light and giving chase.
At this point, Dragon Sovereign would not allow the Thunder Clan Holy Son to escape so easily.
"Impressive speed, indeed, for the seven great Houses of the Immortal Realm!"
During the chase, Dragon Sovereign found the distance between himself and the Thunder Clan Holy Son widening. He felt the formidable legacy of the Immortal Realm seven great Houses. Despite activating the true dragon aura, he was still unable to close the gap, even as the distance increased.
This clearly indicated that the opponent's escape technique was superior to that of the East Sea Dragon Clan. It also heightened Dragon Sovereign's longing and anticipation for the Immortal Realm and other Upper Realms.
After searching the bottom of the Immortal Desolation Cliff, Dragon Sovereign had not found his daughter Ao Qin'er. With the spatial rifts there, which allowed extraterrestrial entities to invade the Earthly Realm, his daughter might have entered another realm through these rifts.
Ao Qin'er might still be alive, but not in the Earthly Realm—she could be in the Immortal Realm, Underworld, Immortal Realm, or Demon Realm.
Over the years, Dragon Sovereign had come to understand many things. Although his obsession with finding Ao Qin'er had not diminished, he had become more focused on cultivation. The recent ability to defeat a peak Saint Stage practitioner with one strike was due to his significantly improved strength.
Dragon Sovereign could break through to the Imperial Realm at any time, but he chose to wait to solidify his foundation. After all, searching for his daughter had caused him to neglect his training, and his foundation was not yet the most solid.
"It seems the only way to catch up with him is to activate the true dragon blood!"
Dragon Sovereign's eyes flashed with golden light. Since he had promised Gu Lan to take action, he had no intention of breaking his word and did not want to let the Thunder Clan person escape.
Activating the true dragon blood would consume part of his origin power and delay his breakthrough to the Imperial Realm. But Dragon Sovereign could not afford to waste time. Seeing the distance between them increasing, he might lose the ability to lock onto the opponent's aura.
If the aura was lost, the pursuit would truly fail. The East Sea Dragon Clan could not afford to lose this person.
Just as Dragon Sovereign was about to activate the true dragon blood, he suddenly heard Gu Lan's voice.
"Lord Dragon Sovereign, leave the rest to me!"
In the next moment, Gu Lan's figure appeared like a fleeting autumn breeze, leaving no trace behind. Though his speed seemed slow, it was astonishingly fast.
The speed of this divine technique was even more terrifying than spatial contraction.
In no time, the Thunder Clan Holy Son, who had already fled far ahead, suddenly saw a green-robed figure appear before him.
Before he could activate Thunder Escape again, a powerful force forced him out of the Thunder Escape state.
"What's going on?!"
"Is it the person in front causing trouble?"
The Thunder Clan Holy Son was both shocked and enraged. As he tried to channel his true qi to confront the person causing the disturbance, he felt his true qi completely lose control.
He was then propelled through the air, landing directly in front of Gu Lan's Three Clarity avatar, kneeling on the ground.
In this manner, the Thunder Clan Holy Son was pressed to the ground, unable to move. He was humiliated and frightened. Even a fool would realize that the person before him appeared young but was actually an old monster.
"Senior, was there some misunderstanding between us?"
"I come from the Immortal Realm with no ill intentions towards this Earthly Realm. Please believe me!"
"If there has been any offense, this junior is willing to offer double the compensation to satisfy you!"
The Thunder Clan Holy Son, knowing he could not provoke this person, began to plead, his tone becoming exceedingly gentle.
He did not want to die, especially not without understanding why. Therefore, whether through intimidation or persuasion, he was determined to seize the opportunity to regain his freedom.
At a critical moment, he would not hesitate to reveal his identity as the Thunder Clan Holy Son, hoping to spare his life. As long as he survived, there would be opportunities for revenge in the future.
In his view, even a high-level Imperial Realm cultivator in the Earthly Realm was relatively insignificant compared to the Immortal Realm. Although he might become the leader of a small faction, he would remain inconsequential in the grand scheme of things.
Anyone with sense would not easily attack a Holy Son from the Immortal Realm seven great Houses.
"From the Immortal Realm?"
"Is being from the Immortal Realm really that impressive?"
"In this Earthly Realm, I have already set up protective formations to keep you from meddling here. I hoped you would be content and not covet our domain."

Gu Lan, smiling kindly, reached out and took the Thunder Clan Holy Son's Storage Ring.
The divine sense on the Storage Ring was easily broken, and the Thunder Clan Holy Son coughed up a mouthful of blood, his eyes showing a trace of terror.
The opponent's strength was perhaps far beyond his expectations!
