Arthur's footsteps were extremely light as a multicolored speck of light flew out from his Sea of Consciousness, quietly slipping through a gap in the swirling wind.
The moment the multicolored speck of light entangled with The Remnant Soul of the Wind Dragon King, her movements in controlling the Wind Dragon suddenly stiffened, and a hint of dizziness flashed through her cyan eyes.
The rotation speed of the wind vortex also abruptly slowed by half a beat. This momentary opening was accurately captured by Yue.
"Haha, trapped!" Yue's heaven-shaking dragon roar exploded as he controlled all the Earth Dragons to slam shut, condensing into a massive cage that trapped The Remnant Soul of the Wind Dragon King inside.
Dragon patterns flickered wildly on the walls of the earth cage, and the heavy power of earth continuously pressed inward, compressing the wind vortex smaller and smaller.
"Damn it!" The Remnant Soul of the Wind Dragon King was filled with both shock and anger, her cyan eyes staring fixedly at the multicolored speck of light entangled with her soul body.
She was well aware of the Dragon God's great power. Although the power within this light speck was small and didn't affect her much, it could not be eliminated. Combined with Yue, it was enough to trap her for a moment.
Because of this, when she activated the wind element again and the Wind Dragon Sword condensed once more to strike the earth cage, the sword's momentum was thirty percent weaker. It only left a few shallow marks on the earth cage.
Yue pressed the advantage, condensing the massive Earth Dragon Hammer again and smashing it hard onto the top of the earth cage. With a loud boom, the earth cage shrank violently, tightly wrapping around The Remnant Soul of the Wind Dragon King, compressing the strands of wind until they couldn't even stretch out.
The Remnant Soul of the Wind Dragon King struggled several times, but the interference from the multicolored light speck persisted. With the pressure from the earth cage increasing, her soul body began to take on a faint transparency.
Her cyan eyes were full of indignation: "You actually used such underhanded tricks!"
Arthur turned his head and said nothing.
Yue laughed loudly and then hurriedly urged Arthur: "Quick, quick, quick! This won't hold her for long. Let's grab a bone and run!"
And so, the two of them quickly raided the home.
While the Wind Dragon King was trapped in the earth cage, Arthur and Yue ran into her "home" and began feeling the dragon bones.
The Remnant Soul of the Wind Dragon King trembled instantly, her cyan eyes filled with shame and annoyance; she could sense those two scoundrels outside touching her bones.
"How dare you!"
This warning was useless.
Regardless, Arthur didn't plan on coming back to the Dragon Valley anyway. He might as well take his fill and make a clean getaway.
Yue felt the same; he had wanted to leave for a long time.
"I already have the torso bone..." Arthur fell into a happy dilemma: "Which one should I choose? How about a leg?"
"Stupid!" Yue smacked him on the head with his tail. "What's the point of choosing a leg bone? I watched Wind Girl grow up; let me teach you what her most powerful asset is!"
As he spoke, he flicked his dragon tail, and his claws accurately plucked a dragon bone that shimmered with a moist cyan light and was shaped like a wing.
The moment that bone was touched, it lit up with wind patterns with a hum, creating a strong resonance with The Remnant Soul of the Wind Dragon King inside the earth cage.
"Ah! You two bastards!" The Wind Dragon King's roar made the earth cage hum and rattle. Her cyan eyes turned blood-red as her soul body frantically slammed against the cage walls. "If you dare touch it, I'll fight you to the death!"
The dragon patterns on the earth cage dimmed slightly from the shock, but Yue didn't care at all. He grinned and said, "Fight to the death? You can't beat the two of us anyway. Just accept your fate."
Arthur's head was spinning from the tail smack, but he reacted instantly, reaching out to touch that wind wing soul bone.
Just touching the cold surface of the bone, an extremely pure surge of wind element flowed through his palm into his body. He couldn't help but let out a soft moan of comfort.
"Oh, it's an external Spirit Bone." Arthur didn't stop his movements, his Soul Power slowly enveloping the wind wing soul bone as he began to guide and peel it away.
The Wind Dragon King was cursing loudly.
Yue put on a thick-skinned front and consoled her from outside: "I'm doing this for your own good. Leaving the Spirit Bone in this dirt is a waste. Better to use it to help the new Dragon God; consider it a contribution to the Dragon Clan!"
Before he finished speaking, there was a soft "crack," and the wind wing soul bone was successfully detached, turning into a streak of cyan light that flew into Arthur's palm.
The two of them shared a look. Run!
Arthur retracted the multicolored light speck and fled.
Almost simultaneously, the earth cage was slashed open by the Wind Dragon King's Wind Dragon Sword, and her remnant soul charged out like a streak of cyan light.
However, she didn't give chase. She watched the two fleeing figures with a complex gaze.
So be it.
She would treat that bone as her contribution. If the new Dragon God came to her for help in the future, she could use this to brush him off.
Thinking this, she turned around, preparing to return to her long slumber.
Suddenly, the voices of Yue and Arthur discussing in the distance reached her ears.
"A great harvest! Yue, keep leading the way. Let's go to the next one."
"Hmm, let me think. There aren't many places left, actually. Water died who knows where, and Fire is an idiot; I don't even know where his bones were lost."
"That's so tragic."
"Sigh, it's a sad story. Let's go find Light; he should be quite compatible with you."
The Remnant Soul of the Wind Dragon King was just about to sink into the wind vortex of the mound when she heard this. Her cyan eyes narrowed sharply, and she turned and shouted, "Wait!"
Arthur and Yue stopped in their tracks. Both turned back to see The Remnant Soul of the Wind Dragon King hovering in mid-air, a hint of hesitation in her cyan eyes.
Yue flicked his tail and gave a couple of dry laughs. "Wind Girl, what's up? Can't bear to see us go?"
"Stop being flippant." The Wind Dragon King glared at him, her gaze falling on the wisp of cyan light in Arthur's palm that hadn't quite faded yet, then sweeping over the two of them and their eager expressions. Finally, she couldn't help but ask, "You're going to continue?"
"Yeah." Arthur nodded, his eyes full of anticipation.
"Don't go looking for Brother Guang. Pick someone else," the Wind Dragon King suggested. "Go find Emerald."
As she spoke, she looked at Arthur. "You are still very weak right now. If you have Emerald's bone, even a God won't be able to do anything to you."
"Emerald?" Yue tilted his head, a flash of confusion in his vertical pupils. After a long moment, he patted his dragon head. "Oh! You mean Little Girl Emerald! I almost forgot about her!"
The Wind Dragon King narrowed her eyes slightly. He called her 'girl' but called Emerald 'little girl'?
"But that's very hard," Yue said carelessly. "Emerald controls time and space; she's elusive. You can't catch her. Better to go find Light first."
"How can we not catch her?" The Wind Dragon King snorted coldly. "With me here, are the two of us still afraid we can't catch her?"
"The two of us?"
Yue and Arthur looked at each other, completely bewildered.
They couldn't understand what the Wind Dragon King meant by this.
Did she mean she was joining them?
Yue smacked his lips in surprise and stepped forward, flicking his tail. "Wind Girl, are you planning to work with us?"
"Stop talking nonsense." The Wind Dragon King slapped away his tail, her tone a bit awkward. "I just can't stand Emerald. It's the perfect chance to use you guys to teach her a lesson."
"I know where Emerald is. Follow me."
After saying that, she took the lead, even urging them.
"Aren't you coming?"
Arthur and Yue followed behind in a daze. Arthur asked doubtfully, "Do those two have a grudge?"
Yue was also confused. "I don't know."
