Chapter 0175: The Goddess of Life

Keith never expected to encounter the Yellow Dragon here. Filled with terror, his face turned pale upon hearing the Dragon’s words.
The Yellow Dragon scanned the thousand members of the Obu family and was startled upon seeing a figure hiding behind Keith.
Lin Ming, Daina’s son! He had escaped from the Blizzard Empire’s palace and returned to the Obu family?
Seeming to sense the Dragon’s gaze on him, Lin Ming, who had been hiding, paled and kept lowering his head while retreating.
“Daina is my daughter. Yellow Dragon, what do you want now?” Keith asked, suppressing his shock.
“What do I want?” The Yellow Dragon smiled. “I don’t really have any specific demands. Since it was the Obu family that caused trouble with the Zhao family, they must pay a price.”
Pay a price? As Keith and the others were puzzled, suddenly several roars echoed, and Bog, Nat, and Gusta charged forward on their magical beasts.
Countless screams filled the air. In an instant, the Obu family’s members lay dead everywhere. Under Gusta’s strike, five of the Obu family’s sacred warriors were injured, one fatally.
Keith was furious. Even the stupidest could realize now that the Yellow Dragon wanted their lives!
The Yellow Dragon didn’t even lift a hand. He stood there, then turned to the Golden Giant tribe and said, “Er.”
Hearing the Dragon’s call, Er, who had been stunned, snapped back to reality. “Elder Yellow Dragon, what instructions do you have?”
Seeing Er’s anxious expression, the Yellow Dragon smiled. “I’m killing people in your territory. Shouldn’t that cause any trouble?” Keith was the head of the Obu family. If he were killed on the territory of the Golden Giant tribe, even if they weren’t the murderers, they would still face serious consequences.
The Obu family ranked among the top three families in the Hengyuan Continent and had influence in various countries there. Even if the Yellow Dragon destroyed the Obu family’s headquarters in the Dark Forest Empire now, he couldn’t eradicate them entirely.
So that’s why!
Er and the other elders breathed a sigh of relief. Er quickly said with a smile, “It’s fine, it’s fine. Rest assured, Elder Yellow Dragon. Although we Golden Giants aren’t as powerful as the Obu family, we’re not afraid of them either.”
After saying that, Er looked at the Yellow Dragon with gratitude.
Er and the others were aware of the conflict between the Zhao family and the Obu family. They never expected that, in his capacity as the Yellow Dragon, he would still consider the interests of the Golden Giant tribe.
The Yellow Dragon nodded at the confident expressions on the Golden Giant tribe’s faces and said nothing more.

After a day of interaction, Huang Long had gained a rough understanding of the strength of the Golden Giant clan. Including Er, the four sacred realms, plus the Golden God’s “tent” left by Golden God Echi, the Obu family, with its headquarters destroyed, indeed no longer had the ability to threaten the Golden Giant clan. While Huang Long was discussing this with the Golden Giant clan, the fierce battle between Bog and the others and the Obu family continued. The killing went on. More than a thousand members of the Obu family died in just a few moments. Even if Bog and his companions hadn’t attacked them, the residual energy from the battles among the sacred realms was enough to send these mostly sixth or seventh-level members of the Obu family flying. This time, the Obu family brought six sacred realms, including Keith’s. Previously, Gusta had killed one of them; now, the remaining five were struggling to hold their ground and retreating continuously. Gusta and his magical pet, the Fat Lion, were dealing with Keith and one of the Obu family’s supreme elders, while Bog and Nat, along with their magical pets, were fighting against the other three sacred realms. Although both Keith and that supreme elder of the Obu family possessed advanced skills from their sacred realms, they were no match for Gusta and the Fat Lion. Before long, the supreme elder was sent flying by the Fat Lion’s massive weight. As he fell, his body convulsed and he was covered in blood—it seemed he wouldn’t last much longer. The supreme elder’s severe injuries filled Keith and the other four members of the Obu family’s sacred realms with shock. Seeing Keith’s panicked expression, Gusta laughedHehely and said, “Hehe, kid, let me show you my new technique!” With that, he leaped into the air, spun around, and his entire body was surrounded by black necrotic magic energy, forming a giant spear-like shape that pierced through the air waves and rushed toward Keith. “What? You’re Gusta!” Keith was shocked. It was well-known across the Hengyuan Continent that Huang Long had three peak warriors from sacred realms under his command, but no one knew their true identities. Keith never expected that one of these peak warriors was Gusta, the second most notorious criminal! Then, the identity of his other magical pet, who was also at the peak of a sacred realm, remained unknown. Faced with Gusta’s devastating attack, Keith couldn’t dodge and was filled with terror. Was he going to die? Despair filled his eyes. Just then, suddenly, a beam of light crossed the sky from afar. It appeared slow but was actually fast, arriving in an instant before shooting toward Gusta. Amidst the black necrotic magic energy, facing this incoming light, Gusta felt an irresistible force and was filled with panic.

Hm? Huang Long had already noticed as soon as that light appeared. With a flick of his finger, he sent out a beam of Xuanqing Dazizai Sword Energy, which collided with the light just as it was about to pierce through Gusta’s identity.
The powerful strike caused ripples in the spatial airflow.
Yet no sound was made, as if nothing had happened. Only Gusta was sent flying back due to the aftereffects of the energy wave. With a gentle wave of his palm, Huang Long used an invisible force to catch Gusta.
It all happened so fast that everyone was stunned, watching in disbelief.
Especially Keith, who had escaped death, was utterly shocked.
As everyone was still in awe, the sky flickered, and several silhouettes appeared high in the air. In the blink of an eye, those silhouettes solidified, revealing three women and an old man.
One of the women was none other than the mysterious priestess of the Dark Forest Temple, her face covered. Strangely enough, she and another woman with a purple veil stood respectfully behind a woman dressed in light green.
This woman in light green had a stunning figure and wore a light green veil. Though she didn’t exude any fierce aura, her presence alone inspired people to submit to her.
Seeing the old man, Keith and the members of the Obu family were overjoyed.
“Father, you’ve come!” Keith, having narrowly escaped death, stood up in haste and spoke respectfully.
That old man was none other than Ji Shan, the supreme elder of the Obu family.
The members of the Obu family also bowed to him one after another.
At that moment, Ji Shan said, “Keith, this is Lady Wendy, the Goddess of Life of the Temple. Come and pay your respects quickly!”
What?! Lady Wendy, the Goddess of Life of the Dark Forest Temple?!
Keith and all the members of the Obu family were shocked. They immediately bowed respectfully. At the same time, Keith was overjoyed. Though he didn’t understand how his father Ji Shan had managed to invite Lady Wendy, it was clear now that he no longer had to worry about his safety.
The Goddess of Life was a powerful figure in the divine realm!
Facing the bows of Keith and the others, Lady Wendy, the Goddess of Life with her green veil, said calmly, “Get up!” Her voice was as melodious as a oriole’s song, yet it carried an irresistible authority.
“Yes, Lady Wendy, the Goddess of Life!”
Keith and the members of the Obu family then stood up respectfully.

“Dare you! You’ve met the Life Goddess Lady Wendy, yet you still dare not kneel and pay homage!” The woman standing behind Lady Wendy, the Life Goddess, wearing a purple veil, scolded Huang Long and the others along with the priestess.
Her voice carried magic, commanding respect from all sides, full of arrogance and dominance!
By now, Bog and the others had already retreated to Huang Long’s side, shocked by the appearance of Wendy, the Life Goddess of the Dark Forest Temple. Hearing that a maid behind Wendy demanded Huang Long kneel in submission filled them with anger. Especially Nat shouted, “What kind of so-called Life Goddess? Just a divine realm, and yet she dares to make our master kneel!”
What he said was true. Back when Huang Long was still at the peak of the Sacred Realm, even the powerful Dragon Yi from the Divine Realm treated him as an equal.
Apart from Bog and the others, everyone was astonished by Nat’s outburst.
After a moment of shock, Keith and the others showed delight on their faces.
Huang Long, I never expected your subordinates to be just as arrogant and ignorant of propriety as you. You deserve your fate—blame only those dogs who bark recklessly without knowing their place! Keith thought to himself with hidden joy.
“Dare you!” Nat dared ignore her authority. The woman in the purple veil was clearly furious. In anger, she sent a beam of light at Nat, its power immense.
Bog and the others were stunned, not expecting this woman to be a peak-level warrior of the Sacred Realm.
Nat was shocked too. At that moment, a gentle force emerged from beside him, instantly dissipating her attack without a trace.
“Master!” Nat realized it was Huang Long who had saved him. Just as he was about to speak, Huang Long raised his hand to silence him, then stepped forward and looked at Lady Wendy, the Life Goddess.
The appearance of Wendy, the Life Goddess of the Dark Forest Temple, also took him by surprise.
What was the relationship between Wendy and the Obu family?
Even without mentioning Huang Long, Keith was puzzled.
As far as Keith and the others remembered, they had no idea the Obu family was connected to the Dark Forest Temple.
“Are you Huang Long?” The woman in the purple veil, seeing her attack dismissed, was about to strike again when Wendy, the Life Goddess, spoke. Her voice was as enchanting as before.
But to Huang Long, it sounded like the tone of a superior addressing a subordinate, which filled him with disgust.
Huang Long flew into the air, looking at Wendy without answering, merely saying indifferently, “The affairs of the Obu family have nothing to do with your Dark Forest Temple. I can let you leave now.”

Seeing that it was a woman, Huang Long originally intended to give her a chance. But after hearing this, everyone looked as if they thought Huang Long had gone mad from fear. Even the female priestess stared at him strangely. Someone actually said to their life goddess, Lady Wendy, that they could leave now? What did that mean? If they didn’t leave now, would they be unable to leave later? Lady Wendy, the temple’s life goddess, was stunned for a moment before bursting into a delicate laugh—her laughter even more enchanting. Having lived for over three thousand years, this was the first time she had heard such a joke!
