Chapter 1358: Joining with the Dragoons!
Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales
The Fiend Race had not perished!
The Devil Shadow Dragoons still stubbornly lived on!
Even while they were jailed in the universe of dragons and had battled with the Megadragons for eons, the banner of the Devil Shadow Dragoons still stood tall! The Devil Shadow Dragoons were really something else! What sort of formidable existence were they!?
“Hurrah!” “Hurrah!”
After Xia Fei had announced that fact, God’s Eden resounded with frenzied cheers!
Even the unreasoning beasts were infected by the air of excitement and roared lustily!
“Guts and power! As expected of the Devil Shadow Dragoons! As expected of the strongest force in the universe!” Even the normally irreverent Xu Luanbu praised them as he clenched his fists.
“I’d rather die with those true men that hold up the world rather than live together with those hypocrites!” Oro bellowed excitedly. “How refreshing! I definitely have to see such fierce people! Fighting alongside them will be the greatest honor of the Lionheart Race!”
“To battle! Let’s battle to our heart’s content! Whether it’s the Megadragons or Annihilators! Anyone who stands in our way dies, whether gods or demons!!!” The former patriarch of the Aurora Clan, Wistful Clotho, the old monster who had been in seclusion for many years, felt the blood pumping through his veins!
Ever since he had learned the truth, Xia Fei understood why that commander of the Hell Brigade had such a loathing for the Fiend Race, and also why he had said that he had seen the Fiend Race’s army two years ago.
The reason was the Devil Shadow Dragoons!
These heaven-defying warriors were like unkillable cockroaches, possessing unyielding and lofty characters!
The schemes of Azure Moon had put the Devil Shadow Dragoons and the Megadragon Race together in the seventh universe for countless years, and the Devil Shadow Dragoons had battled against the Megadragons for just as long!
These crazy warriors knew nothing about despair, knew nothing about concession! In desperate straits, they stubbornly fought on!
Everyone roared crazily, even when they knew that they were heading for the universe of dragons and were about to face the wrath of these terrifying beings, it still couldn’t change their original intentions. This would be a historic battle! A battle for glory!

In the universe of dragons, an old man and a youth were waiting at the Cosmic Gate.
The Cosmic Gate was above them, as black as a black hole.
The young man was called Little Five, and the old man was called Feng Tingyu. They were of the Fiend Race, and protecting the Cosmic Gate was their mission.
Little Wu looked up at the Cosmic Gate and whispered, “Grandpa Feng, do you really think someone will come in through the Cosmic Gate? This is the universe of dragons, the nest of the Megadragons! Isn’t coming in here suicidal?”
Feng Tingyu had no eyes, as they had been injured by Dragon Qi in battle with the dragons and were unhealable. A bright-red scar crossed his old face.
But Feng Tingyu still raised his head and glanced upward. “They will, so long as someone knows that the Devil Shadow Dragoons still exist.”
Little Five said, “Then, will there be people who know about us?”
Feng Tingyu replied, “Perhaps so, or perhaps not. Young man, what’s the point in thinking about so much? Watching the Cosmic Gate is our mission. Whether someone comes here or not, we have to carefully watch for any activity here.”
Little Five nodded sullenly. They continued to sit at the base of a lonely black mountain, looking around at the bleak region of space around them.
Hwooo!~ Suddenly, a giant round plate silently dropped out of the black hole: God’s Eden!
The garden made by the Four Sky Devils had the most advanced plant cultivation system in existence, and it was also an extremely fast supership!
The warship was very bizarre, capable of silently passing through the Cosmic Gate and all of its boundaries. Like a ghost, it didn’t make a single sound!
Little Five excitedly jumped up and shouted, “Grandpa Feng! Someone really came through the Cosmic Gate to the universe of dragons!”
Feng Tingyu was a Devil Shadow Dragoon, and when he wasn’t blind, he had been a very powerful Devil Shadow Dragoon! Thus, he had been able to sense exactly when God’s Eden had arrived.
Standing up, Feng Tingyu stepped up to the peak of the mountain in a few steps and said in a majestic voice, “This is a Devil Shadow Dragoon outpost! State your name and purpose!”
The mountain shuddered, as did all of space!
A blind old man was able to shout with such power! It really made one reevaluate him!
—
As Xia Fei and the others entered the universe of dragons, they were stunned by the universe’s darkness and gloom.
It was as if this universe had been through countless calamities and had been deprived of its life force long ago. Space was black and the planets were black. All was dead and still!
Suddenly, a person shouted through the stillness, making everyone tremble.
Upon closer inspection, they saw two people standing upon a tall black mountain on the planet closest to the Cosmic Gate. One old and one young, tall and short, both of them wearing tattered combat armor.
Despite his shabby appearance, the old man had an impressive aura, one that he seemed to be born with. As he called out the name of the Devil Shadow Dragoons, his voice carried a supreme pride!
“Dragoons! Devil Shadow Dragoons!”
“Our ancestors!”
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Several people shot out of God’s Eden. They were Xia Fei, Xia Gucheng, Chu Jingfeng, and Yangguang.
When they saw the faces of these two Dragoons, they almost broke into tears!
The old man had worn his suit of combat armor for many eons, and it was shabby as shabby could be. As for the youth, he was wearing an adult’s suit of armor that had barely been mended up!
For countless eons, the Devil Shadow Dragoon had been without reinforcements or resupply and had to battle against the wicked dragons in the seventh universe! Their equipment was in the worst condition possible, no different from a beggar’s!
Even so, they still had their pride!
That old man had no eyes, but he exuded an aura that made him too intimidating to directly look at! This was a legendary Devil Shadow Dragoon! A warrior of steel who would never fall!
Grand Ancestor Xia Gucheng saw Little Five’s extremely unfitting suit of armor and wailed!
This child had been born in the dangerous universe of dragons, born on the battlefield, and had grown up on the battlefield! From the first second he had been born, death had been his companion!
When other children were throwing tantrums, the descendants of the Devil Shadow Dragoons were struggling with death! Prosperity, playgrounds, snacks, love talks, watching movies: Little Wu had experienced none of what a young man should have experienced. All he had was this shabby suit of ill-fitting armor and endless battle!
Sobbing instantly filled the air!
The Devil Shadow Dragoons had once been the most glorious army of the universe! It was impossible to imagine what they had been through, impossible to imagine how they had managed to keep fighting in these circumstances!
Yangguang hugged the old man and then pounded his chest while tears ran down his face. “I should be blamed! It’s all my fault! I shouldn’t have believed Azure Moon’s words! I deserve death! I should have been coordinating my movements with you!!!”
Lady Hanxiao wept silently alongside him. The young Yang Ji didn’t understand what was going on, but he was in disbelief that these two beggar-like people were actually legendary Devil Shadow Dragoons!
There was also Chu Jingfeng. He was embracing his disciple Xu Luanbu, and the two of them were having a good cry.
There was also the Skywings. In this scene, even these tough wolves lost control of themselves. While crying, they loudly roared their greetings.
As for Avril, Little Yu, and many other people, they had already been reduced to tears.
“Who, who are you all?” Feng Tingyu asked curiously.
“I’m a descendant of the Chu Clan of God’s Eden! My name is Chu Jingfeng! This is my disciple, Xu Luanbu!” Chu Jingfeng said hastily.
“The Chu Clan!? The caretakers of God’s Eden appointed by the Sky Devils!? You’re really from the Chu Clan!?” Feng Tingyu was stunned and reached out a hand, feeling Chu Jingfeng’s face.
“I am Yangguang, the King of the Yggdragons!” Yangguang wiped his tears and spoke in his draconic voice.
“King Yangguang! It’s really you!?” Feng Tingyu was given another shock, grabbing Yangguang’s hand as he spoke.
Yangguang replied, “It’s me, it’s really me! I’m here and all of the Yggdragons have come with me!”
Feng Tingyu could hardly believe his ears. For so many years now, the Devil Shadow Dragoons had been facing everything alone, but now, reinforcements had finally arrived! And from the look of it, it was a powerful force!
Feng Tingyu grabbed Xia Fei’s hand and asked him, “And what about you? You feel very familiar to me?”
“I am the Annihilation Universe’s last Devil Shadow Dragoon and a descendant of the Fiend Race. My name is Xia Fei!” Xia Fei spoke in a serious voice, and while he hadn’t cried, his eyes were already red.
“The last Devil Shadow Dragoon? How could you be the last one? Could it be…”
Feng Tingyu still thought of the universe as being in the era where the Fiend Race dominated and the Devil Shadow Dragoons trampled over all. He had no idea that the Fiend Race had been completely purged from the universe. The Skywings were the last remnants of the Fiend Race!
Everyone didn’t know what to say, their heads dropping in sadness as they found themselves unwilling to be the bearers of bad news.
“It’s okay! So long as you’re here, it’s okay! The Devil Shadow Dragoons will never fall! Even less so now that we have such mighty reinforcements! We’ll teach those wicked Megadragons what real power is!” Feng Tingyu said loudly.
Xia Fei clenched his fists and whispered, “Not just the dragons. All our enemies will pay!”
Lady Hanxiao took out two new sets of armor and passed them to Feng Tingyu and Little Five.
Little Five had never worn anything new in his life, so he compulsively stroked the suit of well-fitting armor with his dirty hands.
The battles had been too intense. The Dragoons suffered casualties every day and needed new suits of armor every day. A young man like him could only wear armor that had been refused by others.
A suit of armor that was nothing much in the Annihilation Universe became the most precious gift Little Five had received in his entire life!
“No wonder you were able to get through the 1.28 million boundaries on the Cosmic Gate. You came in using God’s Eden made by the Sky Devils!” Feng Tingyu grew very excited after he entered God’s Eden.
“The garden hasn’t just been activated. We’ve even managed to rejuvenate God’s Eden!” Chu Jingfeng supported Feng Tingyu as he spoke excitedly.
Stunned, Feng Tingyu gasped excitedly, “How did you manage to do it!? God’s Eden fell into ruin ever since the Sky Devils left. How did you manage to get this far!?”
Chu Jingfeng pointed at Xia Fei. “It’s all because of Xia Fei, this last descendant of the Fiend Race. He repaired God’s Eden, and he also brought all of us here. He is our leader!”
To call him their leader was somewhat exaggerated, but nobody refuted the claim, not even Yggdragon King Yangguang or Skywing Patriarch Xia Gucheng!
After some thought, Xia Fei said, “We can discuss the matter of God’s Eden later. We should first join up with the main force of Dragoons first.”
“Okay! Okay! Okay!” Feng Tingyu said. “I will take you to the Seven Stars Stele! The last base of the Devil Shadow Dragoons is there!”
Hwooo!~
God’s Eden set off, loaded with reinforcements and ready for battle!
