NOVPUBWu Bin’s performance was truly remarkable, so much so that it made people wonder if she was even human.
Not only did she possess such high cultivation and strength at a young age, but most importantly, she was extremely familiar with the Dragon Palace of the East Sea. She knew every mechanism here like the back of her hand, as if this place was her own backyard.
Even for core disciples of secretive families, to stroll around here as leisurely as Zhu Ling seemed to be a very difficult feat, right?
"Jianbing, I always feel there’s something complicated about this woman’s identity. Let’s be cautious later on. If anything happens, we’ll join forces to take her down first, and then figure out how to get out of here,"
Huang Jianbing nodded, showing his agreement with Cai Bingyan’s suggestion.
Liu Maiqiang frowned and said, "The strength of this woman is unfathomable, and it may not be as simple as we think. I still feel that no matter what happens later on, it’s best for us not to act rashly."
"After all, they brought her with them from Division Nine, and even if it’s just for the sake of Division Nine’s face, they won’t easily make a move against us."
Liu Maiqiang’s thought process was simple: as long as I behave myself, you won’t have an excuse to kill me.
Why did Yang Huan’e die before?
Wasn’t it because she was disrespectful and kept provoking?
The most crucial point was that Yang Huan’e’s actions didn’t benefit her in any way. This sort of detrimental behavior was something Liu Maiqiang would certainly not engage in.
Huang Jianbing and Cai Bingyan obviously didn’t agree with Liu Maiqiang’s approach.
"Liu Maiqiang, I remember you ranked quite high in the martial arts trial. You should be capable. I thought that teaming up with you would be very reliable, but you’re being so cowardly?"
"Yeah, Liu Maiqiang, didn’t you see that woman doesn’t seem to feel any guilt about killing us? What if she attacks us again? Are we just supposed to quietly await our fate?"
Huang Jianbing chimed in from the side as well.
"Right, we absolutely won’t just surrender and die without a fight!"
Liu Maiqiang felt that he simply couldn’t communicate with these two fools.
Just then, Zhu Ling suddenly turned her head to look at them, sneered, and said, "What, does anyone else want to break a leg? What are you whispering about in the back? Hurry up and keep pace!"
Scolded by Zhu Ling, all three of them shuddered and hurriedly followed.
After they passed through the cave, they arrived in a vast expanse of utter darkness.
What shocked them the most was that they suddenly found solid ground beneath their feet!
It was as if they had walked into a super massive bubble that completely isolated the water from their bodies.
That is to say, they went from an area filled with seawater directly into a completely dry, oxygen-rich zone!
"What is going on? Where have we come to?"
Han Chun was very puzzled.
She could sense that they had entered an incredibly vast space, but because everything was engulfed in darkness, she couldn’t discern at all what this space was like.
Zhu Ling seemed to sense something. Her expression suddenly turned very solemn, and she outstretched her hand to stop everyone, preventing them from moving forward.
While everyone was puzzled,
Suddenly!
A pair of blue eyes opened in the darkness, quietly watching them.
As those eyes opened, an overwhelming sense of pressure surged towards them.
Apart from Zhu Ling and Wu Bin, everyone felt as though hundreds of pounds weighed down on them, forcing them involuntarily to bend their knees and crouch.
"Is this... a dragon? A living dragon?"
The voice of Huang Jianbing trembled as he spoke.
He never dreamed that under this deep sea, there would actually be a living dragon!
It’s over, it’s all over now! 𝘯𝘰𝑣𝘱𝑢𝘣.𝑐𝑜𝑚
In front of the Dragon Clan, these so-called descendants of noble families were just like ants, not worth mentioning at all.
It seemed they had no chance of getting out of here alive.
Han Chun, as a scientific researcher, had the weakest physical strength.
In just these ten or so seconds, Han Chun was already struggling to hold on.
Just as she was about to be crushed to the ground by this invisible pressure, Zhu Ling behind her patted her shoulder, and the pressure on Han Chun instantly dissipated without a trace.
Seeing this, a surprised voice came from the darkness of the giant dragon.
"Hmm? I didn’t expect that after sleeping here for thousands of years, I would still be able to see one of my own kind, and such a little one at that, interesting, truly interesting."
One of our own kind?
A little one?
It was then that Cai Bingyan and the others finally understood!
They all looked at Zhu Ling with disbelief in their eyes.
They simply could not believe that the Ninth Institute would actually let a dragon transformed into a human lead the way, taking them into the Dragon Tomb!
"Han Chun, has the Ninth Institute gone mad? Have you also become Dragon Slaves? Otherwise, why would you cooperate with the Dragon Clan!"
"Han Chun, have you forgotten that the Dragon Clan was once our human race’s mortal enemy? By doing this, you have betrayed not only Dragon Country but all of humanity!"
Cai Bingyan and Huang Jianbing, emotionally agitated, both drew their weapons, ready to fight to the death.
Liu Maiqiang walked to one side without hesitation, keeping distance from the two.
Seeing what Liu Maiqiang did, just as Cai Bingyan and the others were about to ask, an impatient voice came from the darkness of the giant dragon.
"Hush."
A ball of blue flame fell from the sky, instantly burning the two who were prepared for a fight to their deaths to ashes!
The two scions of noble families, carrying precious treasures, didn’t even have time to scream before they were vaporized!
As the two perished, the ground began to erupt with brilliant light.
The light spread layer by layer upwards, starting from the walls of the entire cavern, gradually increasing, until it illuminated the entire cavern!
Only at this time did Wu Bin and the others see the full extent of the cavern.
A giant dragon, covered with sky-blue dragon scales, appeared before them, looking down on everyone from above!
When it was pitch black before, Wu Bin hadn’t felt much, but after seeing the giant dragon’s size clearly, his heart was filled with nothing but shock!
Before seeing the giant dragon, Wu Bin had no doubt that humans were the creator’s favored children.
But after seeing the giant dragon, Wu Bin realized that the Dragon Clan was the real masterpiece of the creator!
The giant dragon said in a deep voice, "Apart from my own kind, all of you must die."
"Will you do the deed yourself, or shall I help you?"
As the dragon spoke, blue flames intermittently spewed from its mouth.
It seemed that if any of their responses displeased him, the dragon would immediately breathe fire and burn them to death.
Just then, to everyone’s surprise, Zhu Ling spoke up, "Alright, stop pretending. After that breath of fire just now, you’re at the end of your strength, aren’t you?"
