The Man’s Decree

Jared's heart ached as he watched the green dragon grimace.

At that moment, the green dragon endured the pain and turned to the elderly man. “What are you waiting for, you old fart?”

Upon hearing that, the elderly man glanced at Jared before turning blurry. The void also started to twist.

Suddenly, plenty of cracks leading to the void appeared in their surroundings. It was as though the world was shattering.

Following that, the void cracks began sucking everything in with immense force.

Jared narrowed his eyes and his face was contorted.

The force in which the void cracks were sucking things was powerful. If one were accidentally dragged inside, they would be crushed by the temporal disturbance.

When the old demon spotted the void cracks, he lost his composure and said fearfully, “What are you doing, brother? Do you plan to perish with me?”

“That's right. We should have been dead a long time ago. We shouldn't be in this world. It's a shame that the dragon will have to join us,” the old man answered.

The green dragon's primordial spirit laughed nonchalantly. “Falling into the void crack won't necessarily spell my doom! We Draconians are different from you mortal cultivators!”

Upon listening to his brother's and the green dragon's primordial spirit's words, the old demon grew even more anxious.

“Must you destroy me, brother? If you stop now, I'm willing to abandon demonic techniques and focus on Archaic Body Cultivation.” The old demon was afraid because if he fell into the void cracks, he would be as good as dead.

As he spoke, he struggled to break free while shooting black fog at his brother to prevent him from widening the void cracks.

The elderly man was becoming more transparent by the second, looking as though he was on the verge of disappearing.

Meanwhile, the green dragon's primordial spirit was dragging the old demon into the void cracks with great effort.

“Don't do it, Sir!” shouted Jared as he resisted the suction force of the void cracks.

He didn't wish to see the elder of the Archaic Body cultivators and the green dragon's primordial spirit die with the old demon.

“Your future is bright, kid. Don't go down the wrong path!” The elderly man smiled at Jared one last time before vanishing completely.

“Sir!” Jared shouted, his eyes filled with sorrow.

Then, he turned to the green dragon's primordial spirit. At that moment, it was still binding the old demon and had arrived at a void crack.

“Don't worry. It doesn't mean my primordial spirit will perish even if I'm brought inside the void crack. However, it may be years before we meet again. Hopefully, by our next reunion, the Draconians will be revitalized then, and you will already be the leader,” said the green dragon.

“I...” Jared wasn't sure what to say because that future was still far away.
