The sounds of battle cries continuously echoed within Cyan Dragon City.
It was quite some time before the voices of the crowd gradually subsided.
Zhang Tianlong pointed at the unconscious Three-headed Purgatory Dog and said, "Did you capture it alive to gather intelligence?"
At his words, Chu Chen nodded, raised his hand, and sent a stream of Soul Power into the Three-headed Purgatory Dog's body.
Under the stimulation of Soul Power, the Three-headed Purgatory Dog slowly awakened.
Its somewhat bewildered crimson six eyes scanned the surroundings, and upon realizing the situation, its expression suddenly changed, ready to rise and fight.
However, the next moment, it let out a miserable howl as its limbs were broken by Lei Yao, rendering it unable to get up.
It attempted to use Fire Power immediately, but Chu Chen's Soul Power grasp dissipated the gathered Fire Power.
The three pairs of dog eyes fixed firmly on Chu Chen, growling lowly, "Damn humans, what the hell do you want?"
At its words, Chu Chen not only remained calm but smiled instead and said, "Nothing much, just want to learn some information."
"Hmph! Dream on if you want intelligence." The Three-headed Purgatory Dog roared.
At its response, Chu Chen's expression remained calm, as if its reaction was within his expectations.
"Shadow Kill, your blade is swift; lop off one of its headsโtoo many dog heads are dizzying."
Just as Chu Chen finished speaking, Shadow Kill's Blade Arm swiftly struck down.
One dog head rolled off, and the Three-headed Purgatory Dog let out a piercing scream.
Without utilizing Star Power, though the Three-headed Purgatory Dog's physical strength was not low, it still couldn't withstand a strike from Shadow Kill.
Having lost one head, the Three-headed Purgatory Dog still showed no signs of submission, its gaze turning even fiercer.
Seeing this, Chu Chen calmly said, "Cut off another one."
Another miserable scream, and looking at the two severed heads, the Three-headed Purgatory Dog finally began to panic.
Yet it forcefully maintained composure, angrily shouting, "You just go ahead and kill me, expecting me to be a traitor is wishful thinking."
Chu Chen's brows furrowed at this and said, "Your Talent is regeneration, isn't it? Even without deliberate use, these two heads of yours can grow back."
At his words, an ominous feeling instantly rose in the heart of the Three-headed Purgatory Dog.
"You... What are you trying to do?" It said, somewhat fearfully.
At its response, Chu Chen immediately laughed, knowing that its fear was a good thing.
Watching Chu Chen's smile, the Three-headed Purgatory Dog's spine felt cold.
At this time, Chu Chen changed his tone and began chatting casually with the Three-headed Purgatory Dog.
"Do you know we have a delicacy here called dog meat hot pot? Those who've tasted it are left with lingering memories."
At this time, among the onlookers, a few seemed to realize something and quickly voiced their agreement saying, "Dog meat is not only delicious as hot pot, but it's also exceptionally tasty in braised form."
"There are many ways to cook dog meat; when stewed with medicinal herbs, it's a great supplement."
Earlier, when some had not understood the situation, now they all realized Chu Chen's intentions and began speaking one after another.
"You just don't get it, dog meat may be delicious, but the real treats are the dog whip and dog treasure; just now Lord Chu mentioned this Three-headed Purgatory Dog has a regenerative ability. We can repeatedly castrate it, and everyone can soak up a good jar of wine, this Emperor Eighth Rank dog whip and dog treasure will surely be a great supplement," an uncle with a somewhat sly appearance said expectantly.
Hearing this, the crowd was collectively startled and looked at the Three-headed Purgatory Dog with a hint of sympathy in their eyes.
At this moment, the look on the Three-headed Purgatory Dog's face became extremely unpleasant. These humans were truly maliciousโthey not only wanted to eat it, but also castrate its treasures for wine. The most despairing part was its Talent could regenerate the severed body parts.
This Talent had helped it grow to this day, but now it had become a burden. If possible, it wished it could swap its Talent for Self-Destruction immediately.
Watching the constantly chattering crowd, the anger in the Three-headed Purgatory Dog's eyes gradually transformed into fear.
Witnessing this, Chu Chen inwardly laughed, feeling the timing was right and it's time to fuel the fire.
"You've all made me hungry, go fetch a big pot and bring some good wine, let's treat everyone with dog meat hot pot today," Chu Chen waved to the crowd.
At his words, naturally, the crowd loudly responded, and someone immediately brought out a big pot from the Space Equipment.
Seeing this, the Three-headed Purgatory Dog finally knew fear and quickly asked, "What do you want to know? I can tell you, but you can't harm me."
At its words, Chu Chen immediately dropped his smile, focusing his gaze on the Three-headed Purgatory Dog and asked coldly, "How much dead energy has the Destruction Dragon Emperor collected?"
At his words, the Three-headed Purgatory Dog's expression changed suddenly. The matter of collecting dead energy was known only to several Late-Stage Emperor Level Star Beasts, never expecting humans to have discovered it.
Looking at the Three-headed Purgatory Dog's expression, Chu Chen calmly said, "It's all about wanting to become a god, that's hardly a secret."
At his words, the Three-headed Purgatory Dog's expression changed again, as if Chu Chen's words were so relaxed, he seemed to have already devised a countermeasure, and now he was just confirming it.
Upon realizing this, the Three-headed Purgatory Dog replied in a deep voice, "It should have reached over ninety percent; however, the Dragon Emperor has not disclosed specific details to us."
At its words, Chu Chen's heart sank though he maintained a composed appearance and said, "Still not too bad, do you know the location of the inheritance ground?"
The Three-headed Purgatory Dog shook its head and said, "I don't know the exact location, but I know the inheritance ground is in a Secret Realm and the Key is in the Dragon Emperor's hand."
"Do you know its location or how it collects dead energy?"
The Three-headed Purgatory Dog contemplated briefly before responding, "After the Dragon Emperor issued the general attack command to us, it left alone, but I can affirm it's within a radius of ten thousand miles."
"Oh? Why are you so certain?"
"It possesses a unique treasure capable of collecting dead energy, but this treasure can only gather dead energy within ten thousand miles."
At his words, Chu Chen revealed a look of elation. With Lei Yao and Nirvana's current strength, given they locate the Dragon Emperor, they could definitely eliminate it.
Chu Chen stopped further inquiry and shifted his gaze to Zhang Tianlong.
"Old Marshal, I've asked everything I needed; I have other matters to attend to and will leave for now. The rest is up to you. This chain can restrict it from using Star Power." Upon saying that, Chu Chen retrieved a specially crafted chain from the Spatial Ring.
After receiving the chain, Zhang Tianlong promptly affixed it to the Three-headed Purgatory Dog; this was a terrifying Emperor Eighth Rank existence, if it regained its powers, they would be doomed.
Once everything was done, Zhang Tianlong let out a long sigh of relief, then began asking about the Star Beast's troop distribution and the number of High-Rank Star Beasts as military questions.
Chu Chen was not interested in these matters; his current priority was identifying the Destruction Dragon Emperor's hiding place.
Chu Chen shared the intelligence he obtained both with Long Batian and Zhao Wudi.
Neither could immediately think of ways to locate the Destruction Dragon Emperor.
However, Zhao Wudi promised to find a solution swiftly; the urgent task is promptly supporting the other three cities.
The news from Cyan Dragon City had already reached the other three cities, causing the Star Beast's offensive to intensify; they even initiated suicidal attacks.
Chu Chen had to provide support; otherwise, within half a day, the three cities would break one after another.
Without hesitation, Chu Chen immediately summoned the three beasts, instructing them to support the three cities separately.
By his side, only Soul Suppressing remained for his protection.
The Soul Core and Soul Suppressing Pearl were fused as one, making it impossible for Soul Suppressing to stray far from the Soul Suppressing Pearl; hence, it could only stay alongside Chu Chen.
