Yang Kai was stunned at first, then he nodded when he realized that it was her name, “I’ll remember it.”
Zhu Qing looked at him in surprise, and questioned, “Don’t you have anything to say after hearing this Queen’s name?”
Yang Kai thought about it carefully, and answered, “It’s a nice name. Sweet and simple. Not bad, not bad.”
Zhu Qing could not help rolling her eyes as she could not believe that this guy really could not connect her name to anything. Zhu Qing finally realised why Yang Kai was so fearless; he was just an ignorant idiot. She wondered how he had managed to become a First-Order Emperor in the first place.
Although she admitted this young man was talented, he had violated a grave taboo, and the world could not tolerate his existence. He had to die.
“Never mind!” Zhu Qing waved her hand in disappointment, “Time to get serious.”
“Hmph, this Young Master also hasn’t given it his all yet! I was being a gentleman the whole time because you are a woman.”
Although Yang Kai boasted so, internally he was screaming, [What the hell did this crazy woman mean? Was she just fooling around up till now? How arrogant is she? I can’t come off as weak in front of her!]
“I know,” Zhu Qing smiled faintly, revealing a serene look.
Yang Kai thought that she would snap back at him for his arrogance, but unexpectedly she actually answered like this.
“What do you know?” Yang Kai raised his eyebrows.
Zhu Qing tucked her hair behind her ear and answered slowly, “You refined those things but haven’t used them yet, so of course, you haven’t given it your all yet.”
Yang Kai frowned, “You keep talking about ‘those things’, but what do you mean?”
Zhu Qing did mention that he refined something that he should not have earlier, and this was the reason for their battle; however, he hated people trying to act mysterious with him the most. If it were not for her ample figure, he would have slapped her in the face.
Zhu Qing’s expression turned cold, and retorted, “You don’t even remember what you refined?”
Her aura changed tremendously in the next instant. If she had appeared like a harmless woman next door previously, now she was like a Flood Dragon that was going out to the sea to commit murder.
Yang Kai retorted, “This Young Master has refined so many things over his life, how could I possibly know what you’re talking about if you don’t tell me?”
“Then…” Zhu Qing touched her red lips and flashed a sweet smile, “Let me help you remember.”
When the words fell, she already reappeared in front of Yang Kai, her hand in the shape of a claw as she grabbed at his chest. Her speed was so fast that Yang Kai could not react at all.
Perhaps it was an illusion, but Yang Kai seemed to hear a dragon roar at that moment as Zhu Qing’s small hand seemed to transform into a dragon claw. It appeared that she was attempting to tear down all his defences to gouge out his heart in one blow.
Sure enough, this young woman had not given it her all earlier. Yang Kai hurriedly stepped back, horrified.
But Yang Kai could not shake her off as Zhu Qing chased after him like a shadow. When she reached right under his nose, he could smell her orchid-like breath when she warned him, “If you don’t use it now, you won’t have a chance to use it again.”
At the critical moment of life and death, a realization dawned on Yang Kai and he shouted, “Dragon Transformation!”
His aura that was already quite strong instantly rose to a new high, his monstrous power became comparable to a Third-Order Emperor Realm Master. Pieces of scales suddenly appeared on Yang Kai’s exposed skin, and both his hands also turned into dragon claws at the same time. A golden ray of light flashed behind him as a giant Golden Divine Dragon illusory phantom manifested.
Zhu Qing’s heart sped up inexplicably as she lifted her head and stared behind Yang Kai, but she saw nothing. She was dumbstruck, staring with her eyes widened.
However, because of this short moment of delay, her momentum decreased sharply.
Yang Kai immediately stretched out his dragon claw to grab her hand.
“Oh no!” The pretty face of Zhu Qing turned pale as she hurriedly tried to retreat, but it was too late as she was too close to Yang Kai. Yang Kai successfully caught her hand, and his dragon claw unleashed a mighty power, which made Zhu Qing feel pain, a sensation she rarely felt.
“Caught you!” There were Dragon Scales vaguely appearing on Yang Kai’s face, and his bearing changed greatly, becoming dreadfully overbearing.
“Let go of me!” Zhu Qing shouted as she punched Yang Kai’s chest with her other fist.
Yang Kai did not move, however, and simply allowed the punch to hit his chest directly, resulting in a metallic clang. Sparks flew and his chest sunk in somewhat. His body staggered a bit, but he still held Zhu Qing’s hand tightly in his grip.
Zhu Qing was dumbfounded as she did not expect that her strike to be so weak.
No, it wasn’t her punch that was weak, but Yang Kai who had grown stronger.
When she thought of punching again, Yang Kai suddenly reached out and grabbed her free arm. Both of her arms were restrained now, unable to budge. He held her so close to himself that there was only a finger’s length of distance between their faces now.
