Chapter 273 - Mistake
The kings and the queens were enjoying the private banquet, their faces were filled with smiles and happiness but God knows what kind of scheme they were all hiding.
King Loewe was looking down at his food despite the festive atmosphere. Her wife gently touched his arm, "What's wrong?"
He smiled at her beautiful face, "Nothing."
(What was that blinding light from the meeting before? It was harmless but to our eyes, something is happening on the other side and I don't know what it is) thought King Loewe as he rustled her hair.
(Something indeed is happening, you better be careful now) said the entity inside of him.
(I know, that's why I sent Gutee to the island as a representative, to check what's going on while further establishing our relationship with the demi-humans, using Lyon Torga as a scapegoat) thought King Loewe.
The entity spoke no more.
However, he knew something was off. His fingers were strangely shaking as if fate had taken a wild turn. Never in his entire life that he felt this kind of sensation before. Though he was not a lavish king, he was still a total stranger to a certain emotion that any cultivator will face in their time.
"Ah, such a lovely festive your banquet always have," said one of the queens while taking a wink at him.
"Yeah, King Loewe, you always maintained our good relationship, in fact, you and I are closer than me and my own mother hahaha!" said one of the kings.
King Loewe smiled as he slightly bowed, "You flattered me, this was naught but a bonding between kings and queens, nothing can—"
The utensils suddenly clutter as the huge chandelier swayed in a wild motion. The paintings that were hanged on the wall immediately fell down as the dishes soon followed. The kings and the queens soon panicked before the whole place turned into chaos in a single moment.
Though such an accident won't kill them, King Loewe furrowed his eyebrows as he looked in a certain direction.
(What, in the world, is happening right now).

The entity replied, (I can sense a fight is going on, but I do not know who. Most possibly a hidden expert is fighting a beast).
(Should we go and take a look?) thought King Loewe.
(No, need, Gutee is close, he must have turned curious too. Wait for his reports instead) said the entity.
King Loewe nodded.
--------------------------
The figure in front of the gigantic demonic beast was hidden under its shadow but anyone could see the wings on her back that were still.
Lyon's jade-ish mana surrounded his body like a floating scarf as he crossed his arm. The tattoo of 'True Dragon' was present on his back for the old man and the two servants to see.
"Be careful grandson, this one is strong," said Grandpa Shen.
Lyon furrowed his eyebrows but the smirk on his face never vanished. He made eye contact against those jade eyes of hers with no intention of blinking.
"Princess, please, I can handle this—"
She stretched her arm to the side with an opened palm.
The four-eyes turned meek before it bowed and slowly submerged inside the water, leaving his boat to sway against the wave.
Under the moonlight, her beauty was finally reveale—
Lyon opened his eyes wide before he noticed the woman already glided to him in a half a blink of an eye. He couldn't concentrate on her face before a blade ran across his eyes, but the smirk on his face as he dodged it only infuriated her more.
Lyon somersault backward before leaving the boat with a leap to the air. However, the lady didn't give him any chance to breathe as she sent out a barrage of thrust toward him. The piercing noise was loud in the silent night but not a single hair of Lyon did it manage to cut.
(Damn she is fast alright) thought Lyon before he asked his grandpa, "Grandpa, can I have wings?"
Grandpa Shen made a cough before he answered, "Uh, the real dragon doesn't use wings,"
"Bah, grandson, catfish don't have wings, what are you talking about, hahaha!" sneered Sun.
"Really? Even in this kind of situation monkey?"
"Fat chance catfish!"
Lyon had black lines over his head before he took a distance between him and the woman. Again the woman followed through before Lyon effectively made a bridge position and dodge her thrust.
(Damn, I can't even get a good look at her face, and her stamina is amazing!) thought Lyon before he smiled dumbly and his nose suddenly bleeds as he thought of a possibility. "Heh..."
*bang
A swift kick finally landed on his body before Lyon was plunged through the air. Jumping on the sea like a skipping stone before he crashed on a massive boat.
The crew was frantic but the size of the boat was strong enough not to sink with such damage. Meanwhile, a heavy footstep was heard before a voice bellowed, "Who dares to disturb my sleep?"
"Ah Master Gutee!" said one of the sailors before he pointed out at the man who was etched to the wooden platform on the boat.
Gutee's bald head reflected the shine of the moonlight before he raised his ax as he looked down at Lyon who was still regaining consciousness.
"Who are you?" asked Gutee before he continued, "Depending on your answer, my ax might miss your head."
Lyon rubbed the sore part of his head that was kicked, "I'm Lyon Torga, get the hell away, I have a business to take care of."
Gutee opened his eyes wide before his laughter reverberated the eardrums of his crews.
"Today is my lucky day, you just made my job easier kid," said Gutee with a hideous smile.
Lyon was unperturbed before Gutee continued, "Don't worry, your death will be symbolic! It is because of your death that we can establish a relationship with the demi-humans! Hahaha! Now Die!"
The heavy ax was swung full force toward Lyon but the whispers of his lips made his bones chilled.
"I see, so you are one of the people that tried to frame me..."
"WHA—!"
*splurt
Blood immediately burst out of Gutee's back to the crew's disbelief. The human giant fell to his knees before he starred at Lyon in disbelief. One of Lyon's arms easily went through Gutee's chest without any noticeable effort.
(W-W-We made a mistake, the king made a mistake, we shouldn't provoke this man, we shouldn't, WE SHOULDN'T!!!) He looked deep into Lyon's jade eyes that permeated killing intent his soul couldn't handle.
"Die..."
"True Dragon Art: Palm of Shattering World!"
A roar of a true dragon reverberated before the entire boat exploded into millions of pieces and the sea turned raging because of the impact.
Lyon caught the fluttering flag of the ship before he crossed his arm and went to the place where the old man was.
