Chapter 690 Looking For Han Xuefei
After Xu Lin gave in, Lu Yu and the other three took the lead and headed toward the Water Spirit Dragon.
Very quickly, Lu Yu came to the Water Spirit Dragon’s side. Looking back, he realized that Xu Lin was already trembling in fear.
It was his first time seeing such a giant creature, and this was a legendary dragon! That dragon alone could kill him a hundred times over!
Moreover, the Water Spirit Dragon’s eyes looked at it with a grand aura, which made his heart palpitate.
“The dragon will bring us there, and you will lead the way, understand?” Lu Yu stated.
Xu Lin quickly nodded. “No problem, absolutely no problem. It won’t be hostile to me, right?”
“It’s my battle pet. Even if it’s hostile toward you, it won’t do anything to you without my order. Do you understand?”
“I understand. I won’t be up to any tricks.”
He nodded nervously.
At the same time, he began to look at Lu Yu with a curious gaze and shook his head in disbelief. He didn’t expect this young man to be able to find a giant dragon as his battle pet. This was simply incredulous!
The four of them got on the Water Spirit Dragon’s back; its broad back could easily fit four people.
They could even set up a tent on the back of the Water Spirit Dragon if needed.
“Let’s go!”
Lu Yu patted the Water Spirit Dragon’s neck, and it flapped its wings and soared into the sky.
Every time the Water Spirit Dragon flapped its wings, it rose more than ten meters. Soon, they were high in the sky.
Xu Lin moved to the side and looked down, shocked by the height they were at.
The city of Ixdale below was nothing more than a dense cluster of dots, and the vast mountains and rivers around it could be seen.
“Sheesh, we’re up so high. Judging from the speed, we’ll probably reach there in less than half an hour!”
The Water Spirit Dragon flapped its wings and streaked at breakneck speed across the sky.
“You tell me the direction, and I’ll command the Water Spirit Dragon in that direction.”
“Just keep going north from here, fly ten kilometers, and then turn slightly east. You’ll be there soon.”
“The location of Dark Moon Ridge is hidden away in a dark place. As long as you get close, you can see it. However, most people choose to take a detour after seeing it.”
Lu Yu nodded slightly. “Alright, just sit down. We’ll be there soon.”
Xu Lin sat down carefully while Xu Yuan walked over and squatted beside him.
“The person who harmed Han Xuefei is General Yan, but he definitely didn’t do it himself. Tell me, who in Ixdale did this?”
“I… I can’t say.” Xu Lin seemed to be in a difficult position.
“Hard to say? Then there’s no place for you to take a ride here; you can get off.”
Xu Yuan stated in a cold tone.
“Hey, wait! I really can’t say!”
Xu Yuan stood up, raised his leg, and was about to kick him down.
“Are you going to tell me or not? If not, I’ll kick you down now!”
“Alright, alright, I’ll just take it as my bad luck.”
He sighed helplessly and answered, “It’s like this. There’s a decently sized Chamber of Commerce in Ixdale, and the Han family is one of them.”
“The people who targeted the Han family are working for the President of that Chamber of Commerce. His name is Lin Jiangshui, and he has a family business and normally wouldn’t dare to do such a blatant thing.”
“The main problem is that he has someone behind him, a person you can’t risk offending.”
Xu Yuan grabbed his collar with both hands and continued to ask, “Continue, who is the one behind him? Why can’t we afford to offend them?”
“Hey, relax. The person behind him is a big shot, someone from the military.”
“Tell me who he is!”
“He… he was a Brigadier General named Wang Wei. This should be enough, right? You know you aren’t his match.”
After he finished speaking, Xu Yuan was stunned and then laughed in disdain.
“You’re looking down on us. Do you know who this is?”
“Lu Yu, I know he’s a captain.”
“He killed Wang Tao. Do you know who Wang Tao is?”
Xu Lin paused, frowning. He looked at Xu Yuan and replied, “Wang Tao? How could I not know? He’s Wang Wei’s son, an influential figure in Ixdale!”
“He… he died at the hands of Lu Yu?”
Xu Yuan nodded. “That’s right. Lu Yu killed Wang Tao and escaped unscathed. Do you understand now?”
“I see. You guys are not normal citizens either…”
Xu Lin was nervous, as he didn’t expect so many major events to happen in Ixdale during this short period. He could faintly sense that something bigger was about to go down.
“Hey, don’t talk too much to him.” Lu Yu turned around and spoke to Xu Yuan.
“Don’t worry. When this guy returns, he’ll go to Lin Zhanyu. If he dares say anything, he’ll die.”
“I swear!” Xu Lin quickly raised his hand and swore. “I swear I’ll never say anything!”
Lu Yu shrugged his shoulders indifferently. It wouldn’t be a big problem even if he revealed anything, as there wasn’t any substantial evidence of him committing murder anyway.
Suddenly, the surrounding temperature dropped sharply, giving everyone a chill.
Yun Zirou rubbed her slender arms and felt the bone-chilling cold air. She let out a white breath and muttered softly, “It’s so cold,”
She looked up and saw dark clouds covering the sky. The mountains under the dark clouds looked ominous, and only the top of the snow mountain was slightly white in color.
“The Dark Moon Ridge is right in front of us, it’s a palace embedded in the mountain. There is only one thick iron door to enter and exit, and your friend is locked up there.”
“In such an environment, what are the chances of survival for normal people?” Xu Yuan stared at Xu Lin and asked.
After all, a few months had passed, and no one knew the situation before they reached the place.
“I can’t say for sure. However, she cultivates the ice element and must have some resistance. How much of that is related to her strength.”
“I think she should be fine, but if no one comes to her rescue, it’s impossible for her to escape from there.”
Xu Yuan grabbed his neck and continued to ask fiercely, “Did you guys leave her any food?”
“We didn’t take her storage ring. There should be some food in her ring…” Xu Lin swallowed a mouthful of saliva and replied while trembling.
He was flustered. If Han Xuefei died there, he would not be able to live either.
He was now praying from the bottom of his heart that Han Xuefei was alive!
“We’re almost there. Everything will be clear once we reach it.”
As Lu Yu spoke, the Water Spirit Dragon started to dive down.
Snowflakes began to fall from the sky, and the temperature dropped rapidly—by negative 50 to negative 60 degrees celsius!
Moreover, this was just the beginning, and the temperature would continue dropping.
Although they were all cultivators and their physical fitness exceeded ordinary people’s, they would still be in danger when faced with this bone-piercing cold.
The Water Spirit Dragon could easily withstand and resist this low temperature with its body’s resistance.
