Spare Me, Great Lord!

Lu Shu found out that at some point in history, magical energy had grown scarce and the population of the Dragon Clan started to dwindle.

It was probably not because of a massacre. Instead, there might have been a problem with the continuation of the Dragon Clan. Had it become difficult for them to give birth? Lu Shu was not too sure. Another possibility was that the Dragon Clan needed great amounts of magical energy. It was hard for them to survive like they had in the past during the magically scarce era.

Every species had its flaws. Even the powerful Dragon Clan, who were destined to overlook humans, had to rely on magical energy to survive.

Ao Xian tried to convince Hai Gongzi. “Ao Hai, we are the only two survivors of the Dragon Clan. But we can only linger on with our last breaths. Have you never thought about how to continue our bloodline? If I am able to recover my soul, there is a possibility that the Dragon Clan will continue to exist. What will you choose?”

Hai Gongzi was silent.

Lu Shu interrupted Ao Xian. “Sorry, let me interrupt. Do you have female dragons?”

Nie Ting, Hai Gongzi, and Chen Zuan once again looked at Lu Shu in silence…

Ao Xian, “…”

“From Ao Xian’s distress, +666!”

Lu Shu continued. “How will you continue your bloodline with two male dragons? Even if you recover your soul, there is only one dragon in this world. That doesn’t make sense…”

“After the dawn of the magically-rich era, the Dragon Clan will find a glimmer of hope,” said Ao Xian calmly.

“But my Chaos can do that too.” Lu Shu could not understand why only Ao Xian could do this.

Ao Xian said, “Because it has not discovered the method to live forever. It is said that the barrier of the exiled land is slowly cracking. If not, why do you think that the concentration of magical energy is increasing? The exiled land has the secret to living forever…”

“That’s enough.” Hai Gongzi interrupted him. “You shouldn’t be worrying about that. I’m afraid that you won’t be able to live that long. There are some things that you should just bring into your grave.”

Lu Shu was surprised. This exiled land definitely had some secret that Li Xianyi and Hai Gongzi had to keep quiet about. But why? Was there some reason why they could not reveal this secret?

Ao Xian looked at Hai Gongzi’s nervous expression and laughed. “Don’t worry. You don’t even dare to say his name or talk about him. Do you think this way, his power will not increase?”

Hai Gongzi silently looked at Ao Xian. Suddenly, he said, “At least the barrier has not actually cracked for now.”

Throughout the entire conversation, Nie Ting listened as he gripped his knife. It seemed as if he was in no rush to make his move. What Lu Shu did not know was that some things were also a secret to Nie Ting. Nie Ting’s teacher had once talked about a few things, but did not go into detail. Thus, Lu Shu felt that Nie Ting was now listening to the conversation as an onlooker too.

Nie Ting the Onlooker. When Lu Shu thought of his name, he almost shouted in happiness. Nie Ting was often very stern. People like Chen Zuan were very scared of him. When would you be able to put the words “Nie Ting” and “onlooker” together?

Nie Ting glanced at Lu Shu. He did not know why Lu Shu had a mysterious smile in this situation. Why was he smiling?!

To be honest, Lu Shu was not very stressed. At first, he was very anxious. He was worried that there would be a frightening existence within the Death Valley. Everything was shrouded in mystery.

Now, he knew that all of these had been caused by Ao Xian. Lu Shu could heave a sigh of relief knowing that he was someone that he could deal with, not an existence that was frightening and imaginary.

Furthermore, Nie Ting and Hai Gongzi were here. Back then, although Hai Gongzi had taken some time to recover after transforming into a Panlong, Lu Shu knew that he could not defeat Hai Gongzi in his Panlong form…

There was a tinge of loneliness in Hai Gongzi’s expression. “The Dragon Clan has become a thing of the past. We have been eliminated by the passage of time. There is only this small, evil dragon. Let it grow.”

Ao Xian was furious. “If I am able to obtain immortality, there is no need to worry that the Dragon Clan will no longer exist! We will be able to find a way eventually!”

“The Ancient Yi Clan did not have the method for immortality. It’s probably unknown.” Hai Gongzi’s tone turned cold. “Even if they did, we can’t let them return.”

Hai Gongzi turned and said to Lu Shu, “Release Chaos.”

Lu Shu was dumbfounded. “What if this old man steals Chaos?”

“Relax.” Hai Gongzi said, “He probably knows about the divine punishment, but he has never seen this small, evil dragon. Even if he’s seen it before, it probably has no intention of fighting him. It has easily achieved the immortality that you wanted so badly.

Lu Shu reluctantly released Chaos. The moment Chaos was released, it started to churn within the massive cave. It was very excited.

When Ao Xian saw Chaos, he was shocked. “Black fog! It’s the black fog. Why is this small dragon…”

Before Ao Xian could finish speaking, Lu Shu laughed out loud. “One cannot judge a book by its cover. So you recognize the black fog.”

Ao Xian, “…”

Nie Ting, “…”

Chen Zuan, “…”

Hai Gongzi, “…”

“From Ao Xian’s distress, +666!”

Nie Ting, Hai Gongzi, and Chen Zuan all calmly looked at Lu Shu. No one thought that Lu Shu could say that. Was he so petty that he had to always take revenge…

Ao Xian was dumbfounded. He had casually said that one could not judge a book by its cover. Was he still not over that… what was he going to say again?

Ao Xian felt as if he had been hit by a stick again while he let his guard down. His emotions were all over the place…

Are you crazy?! Did you really have to take revenge for that!

But he had no time to talk about this. Ao Xian stared at Chaos. “How was it able to absorb the black fog?”

Hai Gongzi calmly looked at him. “The bones of this small dragon are made out of golden water. It absorbed the black fog to build its body. There was once an expert who used a mythical object as his body and used ghosts to build up on that body. But his body has not decayed as the mythical object is immortal.”

Lu Shu shouted, “I didn’t know about this!”

Nie Ting and Chen Zuan were evidently shocked. How did Lu Shu not know this? Lu Shu looked at Nie Ting and Chen Zuan in confusion. “Nezha!”

Ao Xian was helpless. “Nezha? Who is that?!”

“It’s him, him! Our Hero Little Nezha. Haven’t you seen this cartoon before?” Lu Shu teased.

Ao Xian, “…”

Hai Gongzi, “…”

“From Ao Hai’s distress points, +666!”

“From…”

They were all speechless. Something serious was about to happen, yet you had to ruin it with a lame joke! Chen Zuan was going to scream!

Suddenly, a blade charged forth from underneath Nie Ting’s black cloak!
