Although Vaan's mocking angered Lady Nurla, she still possessed her reasoning. As such, she was alarmed by the invisible barrier that protected him. It had appeared without warning and seemed nigh unbreakable.

Where did such a strong barrier come from?

Lady Nurla didn't believe such a powerful barrier could have been produced with Vaan's cultivation. As such, it had to come from somewhere else.

A treasure?

In order to verify her suspicion, Lady Nurla threw herself at Vaan again, attacking the invisible barrier with wings, tail, legs, and arms. She utilized all her limbs to strike different spots on the spherical barrier as if to find its weak point.

However, no matter where she struck, the invisible barrier remained firm and unshakeable.

Nevertheless, the glimmers of light from the tiny temple that floated around Vaan made Lady Nurla realize where the barrier power came from. Indeed, the barrier power came from a treasure.

Moreover, it was a very high rank one at that.

Meanwhile, Lady Nurla's broken fingers and nails quickly regenerated within minutes. Despite that, she continued to rely on physical attacks to strike the barrier.

It was as if she had no other means of attack, which shouldn't be possible.

After all, energy cultivators could use elemental spells and divine arts through their divine energy. However, whether it was Sir Mugim or Lady Nurla, both of them completely ignored this potential.@@novelbin@@

They simply used their divine energy to augment their body's physical capabilities.

As a bit of observation, Vaan understood why these two Celestial Dragons didn't use their divine energy for more powerful energy attacks.

While the energy attacks of energy cultivators were very strong, they were also very wasteful. The more energy consumed, the quicker their combat potential would drop. Once they used up their energy, they would be completely vulnerable and at the mercy of others.

As such, the two Celestial Dragons preferred to circulate and contain the divine energy within their powerful bodies. Not only would it not waste away their divine energy, but they could also stay in peak physical shape.

As a result, they would be able to battle for a much longer period than pure energy cultivators.

Using divine energy to maximize the potential of the physical body was indeed the most optimum choice to make for the Celestial Dragons, who possessed such physical superiority.

Unfortunately, Sir Mugim could not make use of this advantage against Valefor. They were very mismatched.

In front of Valefor's Primordial Avatar Body, Sir Mugim's level of strength was simply incapable of dealing damage. On the other hand, Valefor's Asura Law could bypass Sir Mugim's strong defense.

Sir Mugim's advantages were rendered useless in front of an opponent like Valefor.

Valefor was practically the nemesis of all Celestial Dragons, who were pure physical fighters.

Sir Mugim panted on the ground with cold sweats. After consuming a significant amount of divine energy, he finally extinguished the tyrannical, fiery power that invaded his body.

However, he wasn't so sure if he could take another of such an attack. In fact, he feared getting struck by it again. The agony of being burned inside out was not something he wanted to experience again.

It was like a toothache that wouldn't go away, except it was tens of times more painful.

"Are you done already?" Valefor asked, looking quite disappointed. His opponent was quite strong, but he had no guard against laws at all. He didn't expect the person would capsize under a single move.

Sir Mugim glanced back at Valefor with deep dread. He had never fought an opponent like this. The latter's strange powers didn't seem like something he could guard against.

If he had no means of defending himself against the strange fire, how could he continue to fight? But if he didn't continue to fight, was he going to die?

"I'm very disappointed," Valefor reiterated before saying, "However, it would be a shame just to kill you. It's rare to find someone like you. It seems I need to train you into a proper punching bag. This place won't do. We will go somewhere else."

Valefor reached for Sir Mugim's ankle to drag him away.

Although Sir Mugim wanted to escape, he couldn't get away from Valefor in his weakened state. Instead, his futile attempt to flee only earned him a violent beating.

Valefor pounded him into the ground repeatedly before stating, "You better stop resisting."

Sir Mugim opened his mouth, but no words came out. He feared his situation would not be pretty if he let Valefor take him away.

However, if he told Valefor there were many more Celestial Dragons like him in Celestial City, his little bit of value might just disappear, and the latter would have no reason to keep him alive.

As such, he ultimately resigned to his fate.

Valefor opened a spatial tear with asura power before he dragged Sir Mugim through by the ankle. Before he fully disappeared to the other side, he gave Vaan a careful look, concerned that the latter might stop him.

He was relieved when the person didn't.

It was rare for him to find an opponent like Sir Mugim, who was somewhat close to his level of strength. This person was a high-quality punching bag and sparring partner who wouldn't—or rather, couldn't deploy foul means for cheap advantages as Vaan did.

He had to be trained well.

"Kekeke…"

Valefor cackled sinisterly, thinking what type of training he had to drill into Sir Mugim for him to put up a more decent fight.

Sir Mugim felt chill when he heard Valefor's laugh. Experience more tales on My Virtual Library Empire

…

Bang! Bang!

Lady Nurla continued to strike the unbreakable barrier, feeling desperate. She had seen Sir Mugim getting abducted from the corner of her eyes. In her heart, she began to doubt whether she had gauged the situation inaccurately.

After all, a puppet couldn't be too far away from the Puppet Master.

Since Valefor was able to take Sir Mugim to what looked like Gehenna on the other side, then Vaan was unlikely a Puppet Master as she had originally and so confidently thought.

"Can you do nothing but hide behind your turtle shell?! I dare you to fight me!" Lady Nurla vented her frustration out loud. However, she quickly regretted her outburst.

As she wished, Vaan dispersed his protective barrier, changing from passive to active. However, he did not fight Lady Nurla directly. Instead, he summoned the Divine Lord Death Eater from his Heaven-Swallowing Space to play with her.

"This…!"

Lady Nurla was immediately horrified when the Divine Lord Death Eater emerged out of nowhere. It was like a death reaper coming out to collect souls—her soul.

Fear quickly filled her heart.

After facing a true Divine Lord in person, Lady Nurla realized just how laughable, foolish, and arrogant she was for thinking her strength could compare to Divine Transformation. At most, her strength was only comparable to Half-step Divine Transformation Realm.

The Divine Transformation Realm was still far from her grasp.

Lady Nurla instantly retreated over several hundred meters before glancing back at Vaan and the Divine Lord Death Eater warily. She did not know how many more powerful beings Vaan could summon, but she knew she didn't stand a chance in such a fight.

"Do you dare to fight me yourself?"

"Do you think a swordsman will give up his sword just because you challenged him to a fistfight?"

Lady Nurla was quickly silenced by Vaan's nonchalant question.

Indeed, only a hot-headed fool would agree and give up his advantage only to put himself at an obvious disadvantage.

"Go play with her."

"W-Wait! I surrender!"

Surprisingly, just as Vaan gave the Divine Lord Death Eater an order, Lady Nurla quickly gave up. She knew she couldn't win, and stubbornly trying would only result in an ugly death.

Her instinct was very spot on.

Against a deathly being like the Divine Lord Death Eater, her strong physical body was meaningless. She needed to use energy attacks of an opposing element or utilize laws to stand a chance.

"You surrender?" Vaan raised an eyebrow before muttering, "How unexpected… I don't want to accept your surrender, though…"

"I…" Lady Nurla's mind spun for a way to survive with distress before her eyes suddenly lit up. She excitedly shouted, 'I can warm your bed! I bet you have never bedded a Celestial Dragon before. It'll be something you can boast about for a lifetime!"

"I'm… I'm also very good at warming beds!" Lady Nurla added, feeling slightly embarrassed by her own audacity.

Vaan's nose twitched, and dark lines filled his forehead.

Although Lady Nurla was a Dragonoid woman, she was still very beautiful, even by human standards. However, Vaan did not find her offer attractive in the slightest.

"You want to warm my bed?" Vaan frowned before saying, "Even if I were interested in having a Celestial Dragon warm my bed, it would never be you."

"W-Why not?! I'm very good at it if I have to say so myself!" Lady Nurla argued, visibly stunned by Vaan's flat rejection. She was quite confident in her beauty.

"Have you ever heard about the key and the lock?" Vaan coolly mentioned.

"The key and the lock?" Lady Nurla furrowed her brows with confusion and doubt, not knowing what Vaan was referring to.

As such, Vaan had no choice but to explain to her, "A key that can open any lock is called a master key, but a lock that any key can open is a useless lock."

Lady Nurla's mind blank for a moment as she digested the information. Upon realizing its meaning, her face quickly flushed with anger.

"Are you calling me a slut?!"

"You can interpret it that way."

Vaan truly didn't want to stick his dick in someone like Lady Nurla. He could practically smell the number of dicks that had been in her. Even if he actually couldn't, he was still informed.

According to the Celestial Database, the Celestial Dragons commonly practiced in-breeding to maintain the purity of their bloodline.

More importantly, since it was already difficult for Dragonoid women to conceive, the practice of in-breeding only made it more difficult to happen. As such, Celestial Dragon engaged in a lot of fornication.

Someone like Lady Nurla had most likely been with at least a thousand Dragonoid men, if not ten thousand of them. There was nothing left to explore in her cave; it was like a calcified relic that could be put in a museum—only for looking and not touching.

If Vaan touched something like that, he would feel very unclean. Even a thousand baths would not cleanse him of such a feeling.
