The Promise Remembered
Guo Jiang stared at Sakimoto's exposed face, struggling to reconcile the weakened Green Dragon Rider with Ouyang Guang from his earlier life.The man suspended within his fiery restraint had once belonged to the circle of companions he trusted during his travels through Yin Continent.Guo Jiang remembered those earlier years, when their concerns had seemed distant from foreign conquest and the obligations imposed by Xanthanael.Recognizing Ouyang Guang transformed the confrontation into something far more personal than a battle against an unfamiliar Alamaria operative."You are Ouyang Guang, the same man I once trusted, and you have been standing before me as the Green Dragon Rider."His voice carried disbelief that rapidly changed into anger as he considered the deaths and foreign operations associated with the organization.The flames surrounding Guo Jiang
The Rider Behind the Helm
Guo Jiang maintained the fiery restraint around the defeated Green Dragon Rider, watching the weakened cultivator struggle without enough strength to escape.The green dragon remained nearby, circling beneath its master while the fire whip prevented Sakimoto from returning to its back.Guo Jiang had already prepared the power needed to end the confrontation, and the defeated rider possessed no meaningful defense against it.Before he released the attack, a familiar voice reached him through the disturbed night air and demanded that he stop."Brother Guo Jiang, please do not kill him, because I cannot allow you to take his life!"Ning Ju arrived between Guo Jiang and Sakimoto, forcing Guo Jiang to interrupt the movement of his gathered flames.He recognized Huang Jiayi immediately, despite the operational identity she continued using while serving the foreign
The Price of Full Power
Sakimoto's enormous Green Dragon Claw descended toward Guo Jiang, carrying the full strength of his magically enhanced Kaishi cultivation through the night sky.The manifestation was considerably denser than his earlier attacks, its curved fingers pressing against the surrounding air until nearby clouds scattered.Guo Jiang remained suspended above the Eastern Mansion Spirit Ship, maintaining the restricted cultivation output promised under their agreement.He recognized that Sakimoto had committed nearly everything to this final attempt, leaving little strength available for recovering from an unsuccessful attack.The green dragon held its position beneath the armored rider, struggling against the pressure released from its master's completed technique.Sakimoto watched the manifestation advance, his breathing strained by the enormous expenditure required to maintain its concent
The Promise of Escape
The memory returned to Ning Ju as she struggled through the disturbed night air, carrying her thoughts back to their captivity in Vellenor.During that period, Xanthanael's overwhelming authority had left Huang Jiayi uncertain whether she would ever see Peach Blossom Island again.The knowledge that powerful forces controlled their lives made even ordinary conversations about home difficult to endure without sorrow.She remembered sitting quietly while thoughts of her father returned, wondering whether the years of separation had changed him beyond recognition.Haruka Fujimoto had remained withdrawn throughout much of their captivity, handling his own fears without involving the others unnecessarily.Huang Jiayi respected his distance, although it meant he rarely offered the emotional reassurance she sometimes desperately needed.Sakimoto had noticed her lone
A Childhood Left Behind
Ning Ju moved through the cold night air toward the battle, using her quasi-Tiankong cultivation to cover the distance separating the two Spirit Ships.Ahead of her, Sakimoto stood upon his green dragon while the enormous manifestation of Green Dragon Claw advanced toward Guo Jiang.The pressure spreading from the attack disturbed the surrounding clouds, making her struggle to maintain a steady direction through the turbulent air.She understood the danger of Sakimoto's decision, yet the fear gripping her chest concerned far more than his possible defeat.Ning Ju thought, "He knows what Xanthanael warned us about, so why has he chosen to risk everything against someone he cannot defeat?"The sight of Sakimoto fighting Guo Jiang brought memories she had tried to suppress since accepting the identity of Ning Ju.Before the foreign missions, cursed obligations,
The Forbidden Final Measure
Sakimoto continued forming the complicated hand seals while his green dragon maintained its position beneath him, high above the pursuing Spirit Ships.The third attack remained his final opportunity under Guo Jiang's agreement, and the rider intended to use every advantage still available.Green qi gathered around his arms and shoulders, becoming denser as the pressure inside his meridians approached an uncomfortable threshold.His earlier strikes had consumed considerable strength, yet neither had produced meaningful damage against the white-robed Eastern Demigods.Sakimoto understood the evidence, but admitting defeat before the last exchange felt incompatible with the reputation he had struggled to establish.He thought, "I accepted three opportunities because I believed my strength could reach him, so retreating now would mean admitting I never understood the difference."
