"Hahaha!" Botani threw his head back,ughing loudly, then continued, "What a rare sight it is for you to have a friend! Let me show you what true power looks like..."


    "Bring it on! I''m not afraid of you!"


    Wilbur gritted his teeth, then radiated an enormous amount of energy aura as Edmund did the same as well.


    Edmund stared at Botani. "Let me go firstter, Wilbur. You can attack when the opportunityes by."


    "Okay."


    Botani saw the two men in battle mode and immediately released his energy aura. It was much more powerful than Wilbur and Edmund''s, and Botani gritted his teeth as he shouted, "Come on, Edmund!"


    Edmund charged toward Botani, gripping his sword. Botani''s body rumbled violently, and the energy aura around him spread out to crush Edmund''s power.


    At the same time, Edmund''s sword had already reached Botani. The next second, Botani raised his hand and caught the de of the sword with his index finger. He then twisted his wrist and broke Edmund''s sword into pieces.


    Botani opened his right hand after that and made a palm strike. All at once, the broken pieces of Edmund''s sword came flying toward Edmund.


    Edmund conjured a defensive shield, but the broken sword pieces broke through it and two of them even grazed the left side of his cheek, leaving a trail of blood in their wake.


    "Hahaha!" Botaniughed loudly at the sight, pleased by the oue.


    "Oh, Lord Edmund, don''t you care about that face of yours the most? Let''s see what else you''ve got left, now that that''s gone."


    Botani''s words enraged Edmund, and his eyes turned bloodshot. At the same time, Wilbur came down from the sky gripping his Magic Dragon de and stabbed at the top of Botani''s head.


    "You don''t even have a dimension ring, you idiot! Who are you to battle me? Botani opened his hands, and a gigantic palm swooped downward from the sky. The attack broke Wilbur''s Magic Dragon de into pieces, and Wilbur was pushed back as well.


    Just then, Edmund cast the ck Dragon Spell. The enormous ck dragon came whooshing over, and Botani''s right hand lengthened several times to grab Edmund''s neck, causing the ck dragon to vanish.


    Wilbur saw this and flew downward,unching a blow of his own that summoned a white dragon that disappeared the next second. In response, Botani conjured a ck ball of energy that he hurled to his left.


    The white dragon reappeared and collided with the ck ball of energy with a deafening sound. The dragon disappeared, and Botani was knocked several meters backward. At the same time, Ardy stood by the sidelines, watching the battle inplete shock.


    "They''re... they''re both dragon n cultivators!"


    Ardy was about to run when Wilbur hurled an Azure Dragon Spear that stabbed Ardy right through the chest.


    The immense power of the spear made Ardy explode at once.


    Botani wiped away the blood trickling down the corner of his lips with a smirk. "Heh. Now I finally know why you wanted to kill Hanson and Sivan. Oh my... Edmund, I have underestimated you. Who would have thought that you were a dragon n cultivator!"
