Sheng Tian frowned when the man moved forward. He could sense that the blades that covered his body were all incredibly sharp, on the level of Spirit Treasures.
He sent a voice transmission to everyone, 'I'll hold them back while you all escape. Go help the next group the moment I release my pressure'
Bing Xue was about to send him a voice transmission when Sheng Tian interrupted her with another voice transmission, 'No need to worry about me, just go before the other sects are wiped out. I have my own ways to escape if things don't work out'
Long Chen agreed quite quickly while Yue Ling'er was a bit more reluctant, soon they both organized their disciples.
Their exchange happened within mere seconds, and when the disciples moved into slightly more organized positions, the young man sneered.
"Do you really think you can fight back just because you have the advantage in numbers?"
Whoosh!
He dashed forward almost like he was walking on water and stretched a blade covered hand towards Long Chen.
However, when he was a few feet away from him, Sheng Tian yelled, "Now!"
Weng!
The attacking young man felt an oppressive aura from right next to him that caused a stabbing pain in his head and the overwhelming urge to kneel. He staggered and planted his face in the water.
Without waiting to see what will happen next, Long Chen and Yue Ling'er led their disciples away at full speed. Seeing the humans run, the Razor Eels tried to chase after them, but Sheng Tian merely expanded the domain of his draconic aura.
"Ugh!"
"What's happening!?"
The Razor Eels found their bodies not responding to their will and falling down to sea. They could only watch as the humans flew away and quickly disappeared from view.
"You little shit!"
Bang!
Sheng Tian turned his head and saw the young Razor Eel slowly get up with extreme difficulty.
"Do you think a little bit of Dragon Aura can suppress me, the future ruler of the Razor Eel Race, Yu Man!!?"
Sheng Tian sneered and stomped his feet down.
"Ugh!!"
Yu Man was ruthlessly pressed down by Sheng Tian as his Dragon Aura continued to radiate from his figure. At this point, the Dragon Aura had condensed so much that a golden mist formed in the area.
"You!!" Yu Man's eyes constricted, "You aren't human! Why are you, a pure blooded Dragon, helping humans!?"
Sheng Tian smirked, "Who said I was a complete Dragon, plus, I can do whatever I want. My actions are not to be dictated by an overly sharp eel"
Snap!
With a snap of his hands, Sheng Tian used the Sky Sword River and decimated Yu Man's underlings. Under the absolute suppression of a dragon, the Razor Eels could not resist in the slightest and watched in horror as death approached.
Fear enveloped Yu Man as all his people died until all that remained were their corpses and him, still suppressed under Sheng Tian's aura.
Sheng Tian took out the Devouring Sword and prepared to kill Yu Man right then and there, when a blue wisp flew out of his forehead and clashed with Sheng Tian's sword.
"What?!"
Sheng Tian leaped back while the wisp enlarged and took on a humanoid form of a hunched back elderly man with blades poking out of various places on his body. Sheng Tian felt himself tense slightly, as the elderly man emitted the aura of the 13th level of Foundation.
Furthermore, the blades on his body all emitted the aura of a top quality Spirit Treasure, sharp enough that it might even hurt a fully dragonified Sheng Tian.
"Great Elder Ancestor!"
Yu Man saw hope when he saw the old man. This was one of the oldest elders of the Razor Eels and Yu Man's biggest support.
"Don't get your hopes up, this body only retains about 60% of my strength, so I might not be able to hold this young man back"
He turned to look at Sheng Tian and cupped his hands, "Forgive me for making you wait young man. I want to apologize for all the trouble my young master has caused you and your people. What can I do for you to let my young master live"
"W-what! Great Elder Ancestor, y-you can't beat him?!"
The old man stayed silent, but inwardly, he was sweating buckets.
'The young Dragon in front of me is incredibly powerful. If he wished to, he could kill Yu Man in an instant and I won't be enough to stop him. It would be better in get in his good graces'
Sheng Tian pondered for a while. He had killed all the Razor Eels Yu Man had brought and this guy was letting it go like he had merely taken out the trash for him.
The silence was suffocating, especially for Yu Man. He flinched when Sheng Tian pointed at him.
"Make him leave behind his spatial ring and don't get involved in the war. I can also promise that I won't do anything to anyone from your race unless they try to harm me or my people first"
The old man was ecstatic to hear this and ran over to Yu Man. Without waiting for consent, he took off the spatial ring on his hand and tossed it over to Sheng Tian. He scanned it for a few moments before nodding in satisfaction.
"Not bad. I forgive you this once"
He smiled before flying away.
Only once Sheng Tian was out of sight did Yu Man breathe again. He had been holding his breath without him even realizing it and looked at his elder.
"Great Elder Ancestor, are we... going after him?"
Bang!
Splash!
The old man slapped Yu Man and sent his face into the water, "You fool! Do you think a Dragon is something we can handle? With a bit of his aura, he can command us and any beast like puppets! We are lucky he only took your spatial ring and even luckier you weren't carrying the Ancestor's weapon"
Yu Man looked down at his own reflection while the old man looked in the direction Sheng Tian had gone.
"Tell the troops that we are leaving the war. Also, activate all the defenses in our domain. 'That man' is too fearsome and won't let us get away for leaving the war"
"Y-yes sir!"
