Chapter 572: Trapped
His internal force and spirit power penetrated Xingxing's mother's sea of consciousness, dispersing her dragon power and moistening her damaged internal organs. This was not a simple matter.
Liuli and others quietly stood behind Long Yi: they didn't even dare to breathe in fear that they would disturb Long Yi. They all knew that any disturbance could not be allowed when Long Yi treated someone.
Seeing Long Yi's complexion gradually paling and that he was sweating profusely, all of them were anxious and worried, but they could do nothing to help.
Xingxing tightly grabbed Liuli's hand. Their palms were moist, but it was unknown whether it was her sweat or Liuli's sweat.
Suddenly, Long Yi's pale handsome face twitched and he opened his tightly closed eyes. Then, the light spirit tablet shot out from his glabella and emitted a soft holy light, illuminating this huge dragon.
"Holy Spirit Radiance!" Long Yi shouted loudly, and his finger pressing against the glabella of this huge dragon trembled as tyrannical internal force gushed into her like the tide waters. Liuli and the others standing behind him were unable to stand stably. Sensing the ripple of energy in the air, they retreated a few steps back.
The over 100-meter-long huge dragon body convulsed in pain and vomited a mouthful of blood, but its life fluctuations suddenly strengthened.
Long Yi retrieved the light spirit tablet and sat on the ground, all his energy exhausted. In his heart, he cursed. He didn't know which abnormal ghost had suppressed her power, but if not for the help of light spirit tablet, the mother of Xingxing would certainly have died even with his help.
"Young Master, are you all right?" Liuli walked over and sat down, supporting Long Yi. Seeing his frail appearance, she almost shed tears in pain.
Long Yi shook his head and glanced at Xingxing who squatted in front of the huge dragon with tearful eyes. He smiled and said, "Xingxing, don't worry; your mother is fine. She will wake up in a while."
"Really, big brother Long?" Just a moment ago, upon seeing her mother vomiting blood, Xingxing had mistakenly believed that she would never see her mother again. So, hearing Long Yi's words, she was pleasantly surprised and a bit doubtful.
"Of course, when did this big brother Long deceive you?" Long Yi said with a smile. Circulating the internal force within his body, he recovered some energy.
Xingxing walked over to Long Yi and used her little hand to wipe the sweat off Long Yi's face and said gratefully, "Thank you, big brother Long. Xingxing will repay you in the future."
"Silly girl, you call me big brother. It is a matter of course for big brother to help younger sister. Where did the need to repay me come from?" Long Yi smiled and said. He truly liked this poor little girl.
"No, I have to repay you. My mother says that the favor of a drop of water should be repaid with the gratitude of a fountain of water. Hereafter, big brother is Xingxing's family member. Xingxing will do whatever big brother wants Xingxing to do." Little Xingxing looked serious like she was making a pledge.
Long Yi was startled. He pulled Xingxing into his bosom and said, nodding his head, "Fine, hereafter, Xingxing will listen to this big brother, okay?" Honestly speaking, his heart was somewhat shaken. A little girl had actually said the favor of a drop of water should be repaid with the gratitude of a fountain of water. Everybody knew the principle of this idiom, but there were many people devoid of gratitude who destroyed the bridge after crossing the river in this world.
"Mmm. Xingxing will listen to big brother Long hereafter." Xingxing happily smiled as if she had obtained an extremely big present.
At this moment, the huge dragon in front of them jerked and opened her eyes with great difficulty. She gaped upon seeing several pairs of eyes looking at her with concern.
"Mother, you woke up?" Xingxing smiled childishly.
The dragon blinked her eyes and looked at her daughter snuggling up to a handsome youth. Then she observed the other two men and one woman standing beside them. Although they had the aura of a member of the Divine Dragon Clan, they didn't resemble the clansmen of the Divine Dragon Clan.
A golden light flashed, and this huge dragon transformed into a beautiful woman wearing a long golden skirt. Her long golden hair hung loosely to her waist, and her facial features were very exquisite. As for her temperament, she looked gentle, but her beautiful face had a hint of abnormal paleness at this moment.
Xingxing quickly ran over and rushed into the bosom of her mother.
The beautiful woman gently caressed Xingxing's head while she examined the changes within her body. Suddenly, she was pleasantly surprised and wore a disbelieving look. Then, she gently separated from her daughter and walked over to Long Yi. She greeted him with proper human etiquette and said excitedly, "My name is Teresa. Thank you all for saving my life."
Long Yi smiled and said, "Xingxing has already thanked us. Don't mention it."
"Mother, this big brother Long saved you. He is very powerful." Xingxing jumped into Long Yi's bosom and declared, rubbing the beard stubble of Long Yi. She didn't know why, but she especially liked his beard stubble.
Seeing her daughter so attached to Long Yi, Teresa felt a little sad in her heart. This child was too lonely and greatly lacked a father's love. So long as these people didn't have malicious intentions in coming to Dragon Island, she hoped that they would accompany Xingxing. Merely, Dragon Island was so far away due to the sea separating it from the mainland, and no human had ever arrived here for thousands of years, so she didn't know whether these people who had come were enemies or friends.
At this moment, the sky was already filled with stars and the sound of sea waves resounded throughout the island. It was a quiet and peaceful night.
Under the lead of Teresa, Long Yi and the others returned to the small log cabin in the middle of the flower garden. Xingxing had already fallen asleep in the bosom of Long Yi.
Long Yi gently placed Xingxing onto the bed, but just when he released his hand, she woke up and tightly hugged his neck. She refused to let go even after her mother told her to do so.
"Let me hold her. In any case, she is not heavy." Long Yi spoke with a smile. In his heart, he felt an impulse to dote and protect this little girl.
Teresa helplessly nodded her head. How could a child lacking fatherly love easily let go after experiencing the long-awaited fatherly warmth? Nevertheless, these people would eventually leave. What would Xingxing do at that time?
Teresa made tea and poured it for the four people. Then, gracefully sitting on the main position, she said, "I just wanted to know why you all came to Divine Dragon Archipelago. As I imagine it, you all have quietly snuck in."
Long Yi nodded his head and after mumbling for a bit, he said, "That's right. We did indeed sneak in, but we don't have any malicious intentions. I presume you should know about the matter of the prince of Demonic Dragon Clan and the princess of Divine Dragon Clan falling in love with each other."
Teresa was startled, and she stared at Long Yi: "Did you all come for that matter?"
"Honestly speaking, after running away upon eloping, they gave birth to two daughters. The elder daughter named Liuxu is my woman, and the younger daughter is my... eh….. that… adopted daughter. In addition, Midi'er and Leguxiya brought us here. We hope to rescue Fandi and Sa Lianya from the forbidden area of the Dragon Clan. I hope you can help us." Long Yi said truthfully.
"So that's how it is! Just now, did you say Liuli is your woman?" Teresa looked at Long Yi in a daze and asked.
"That's right," Long Yi sipped a mouthful of tea and said. To be truthful, Liuli couldn't be considered his woman: they just shared some ambiguous feelings.
"Don't you know that the unity of a human and a dragon is destined to be a tragedy? The lifespan of a human is too short. However, once you die, you will leave behind your wife who will spend the rest of her life in lonely bitterness. Have you ever thought about this? And by chance, if a child is born, then that child will never receive get fatherly love. Have you ever thought about this?" Teresa was somewhat agitated.
"Then… do you regret?" The black pupils of Long Yi flashed as he asked.
Teresa trembled, and she appeared perplexed. Only after a long time did she nod her head and say: "Whenever I see the longing within Xingxing's eyes, I regret, regret that I cannot give my child a happy childhood, regret that I cannot give her a complete family."
"In other words, you regret falling in love with a human?" Long Yi asked.
"No, I have never regretted falling in love with him. Merely, I feel sorry for my child." Teresa's eyes were somewhat blurred as she recounted her past.
Teresa was Sa Lianya's cousin. Perhaps, after Sa Lianya and Fandi, the prince of Demonic Dragon Clan, eloped, she was influenced by this kind of shocking and tear-jerking love. She who had just entered her rebelling age also snuck out of Divine Dragon Archipelago and went to the Blue Waves Continent. This matter occurred eight centuries ago. After that, she transformed into her humanoid form and traveled around. At that time, she became acquainted with a young Sword Saint in an eastern country of Blue Waves Continent. They got along very well, and for several years, they adventured all around Blue Waves Continent together. After a long time, these two shared a mutual affection. This man was born in a noble family; he had fine features, and his bearing was elegant; moreover, he knew how to enjoy life. Her current habits stemmed from his subtle influence.
At that time, Teresa had been a dragon girl who had placed love above everything else. Once she fell into it, she threw away her reason beyond the highest heaven. The two mated regardless of any consequences, and soon, she became pregnant. Merely, it took at least 200 years for a dragon to give birth upon being impregnated. How could her husband wait for such a long period of time? Soon after that, the people of Dragon Clan found her, and she was forcibly brought back to Dragon Island. Then several great elders jointly used their powers to suppress her power before throwing her to this small island. Since her dragon power had been sealed, she was basically unable to leave.
200 years later after that, when she had been about to give birth, she had begged the Dragon King and the elders to let her see that man once again and show him his child. At that time, the elder brother of Sa Lianya had already become the Dragon King. Since he was also her cousin, the Dragon King agreed to her request, and he instructed a senior clansman to go to Blue Waves continent to bring back that man. However, the senior dragon returned back with news that the man had already died one month ago. Moreover, he had also had several generations of offspring filling his house.
"The reason why I am telling you so much is that I don't want you and Liuxu to walk down my old path. As for rescuing my cousin and cousin-in-law, I will help to the greatest of my abilities." Teresa softly sighed.
"Thank you for your concern, but I and Liuxu will absolutely not walk down your old path because my lifespan is even longer than the Dragon Race's." Hearing the life story of Teresa, Long Yi sighed in his heart. He already had Lightning God's, Water God's and Wind God's, these three main gods' imprints on him; his lifespan basically had no limit. Unless he was killed with both his body and soul completely annihilated, he would become the undying old monster to later generations.
Teresa looked at Long Yi in amazement. Seeing his confident appearance, it seemed that he was not boasting. Merely, how could a human have a lifespan longer than a dragon? Still, she didn't ask more about it.
"Young Master, it's almost zishi [1]." At that time, Liuli pulled Long Yi's sleeve and reminded.
[1] zishi: 11pm-1am
Long Yi looked at the sky and nodded his head. The time they were appointed to meet again with Midi'er brother and sister approached.

Long Yi gently handed over Xingxing to her mother Teresa. While sleeping, Xingxing restlessly swayed for a bit, but smelling her mother's fragrance and aura, she calmed once more.
"You all should be very careful. There is a detection magic array on the master island. If an outsider broke into the island, then the Dragon King and the elders would be notified immediately," Teresa warned.
"Thank you. We will be careful." Long Yi said, and along with others, he hastily flew toward the rocky beach of the West.
The appointed time quickly arrived, but not even a shadow of a ghost could be seen.
Even after another two hours, Midi'er and her brother still didn't come. Long Yi frowned and said, "We don't need to wait any longer, it seems Midi'er and Leguxiya met with an accident, so they cannot come tonight."
"Then, what should we do?" Barbarian Bull scratched his ox horn and asked.
"What can we do? Let's go back and wait in Xingxing's home." Long Yi shrugged his shoulders and said. Without a familiar person leading the way, he didn't dare to rashly charge in. In any case, if they alerted the enemy by acting rashly, it would be much more difficult to rescue Liuxu's parents.
...…..
At this moment, in a huge dark cave within the master island, Midi'er and Leguxiya fretfully paced back and forth.
"Big sister, think of a way! Father Emperor told us to face the wall for two months. If we do so, then wouldn't brother-in-law and others misunderstand us?" Leguxiya anxiously asked.
"He is not your brother-in-law. Keep talking nonsense if you don't want to live." Midi'er was also vexed and hearing Leguxiya repeatedly addressing Long Yi as brother-in-law, she couldn't help but get angry and kick his butt.
"Me calling him brother-in-law is not wrong. Liuxu is also my big sister. Did you think I was talking about you? As I see it, you basically don't even enter his eyes." Leguxiya rubbed his butt and muttered with hidden bitterness.
"You... say that again." Midi'er swung her fists in a threatening manner and ferociously glared at Leguxiya as she said, "Because you said that it was our chance to steal the Dragon King Seal, Father Emperor was alarmed, and we're now placed in confinement."
"Of course, I knew there was a chance that this would happen, but it was you big sister who broke the glass and alarmed father emperor. If it wasn't for my quickly making a lie on the spot, I fear father emperor would have been suspicious." Leguxiya muttered.
"Fine, even if that was my mistake, now is not the time to quarrel: we have to quickly think of a way out of here." Midi'er impatiently waved her hands. This cave had a powerful barrier, and there were dragon guards guarding outside. It would be quite difficult to escape.
Chapter 573: Sneaking into Divine Dragon Main Island
Since Midi'er and Leguxiya hadn't come, Long Yi and his party returned to Xingxing's house. Fortunately, all dragons had their own exclusive territories, and under normal circumstances, they would not visit each other. Therefore, staying here, Long Yi and his party didn't have to worry about other dragons finding them.
At this moment, Teresa and Liuli sat in wooden chairs under the eaves. They chatted while looking at one big and one small figure playing noisily in the garden with big smiles on their faces.
"In these several hundred years, this is the first time I've seen Xingxing so happy. Long Yi seems to like children very much," Teresa said with a smile, her eyes filled with warmth. At this moment, she was truly grateful that these people had come here and filled this desolate island with laughter.
"He himself is a child sometimes; naturally, he likes children," Liuli sipped a mouthful of tea and said, but her eyes were following Long Yi's figure. As long as he was beside her, she would feel at ease and that this world wasn't lonely and bitter. He was a very peculiar person. With him around, no one could avoid laughing heartily. He always disguised himself with a roguish look and a bad manner, making people hate yet also love him, but once in a while, his eyes unintentionally showed a hint of sadness, making her understand that there actually was a place in his heart that no one could touch. Perhaps, that place held his truest essence and was his softest and weakest place.
"If you hadn't told me, I would truly never guess that he was the manipulator behind-the-scenes of the unification of Blue Waves Continent and is someone who conquered the continent but was unwilling to be bound by it." Teresa looked at Long Yi in the garden who wore a bright smile comparable to the sunlight and said. She couldn't understand him. She knew the cruelty of the war. For the unification of the entire Blue Waves Continent, many people would have to die and blood would need to be shed. After experiencing everything, how could he still have such a bright smile?
"He has a soul that yearns the most for unfettered freedom without any restraints." Liuli smiled gently, and her eyes blurred a little. This was her man, and he was also the man who couldn't be replaced in the hearts of her sisters.
Teresa looked at the blurred eyes of Liuli and smiled, shaking her head. She could see her own shadow from those years past in Liuli. A woman who had fallen in love was not rational, one might even say that, just like a moth darting into a flame, she knew perfectly well that she would be destroyed in the end, but she still couldn't stop flying closer.
Long Yi however didn't know what these two women were talking, he was just happily playing with Little Xingxing. Playing together with a child made his heart filled with a child's innocence. He felt as if the pureness of a child was washing away his tainted soul.
"Big brother Long, you are shameless, hehe... don't..." In the bosom of Long Yi, Little Xingxing twisted around, not letting Long Yi tickle her. Now, she was laughing so hard that her cheeks had turned bright red.
"Fine, don't you want to play, are you tired?" Long Yi smiled and stopped. Then, lying down in the midst of the garden, he looked at that clear, cloudless sky and took a deep breath. In his heart, he was thinking, if he could take all his women to a place with flowers as far as the eye could see someday, then how wonderful that would be.
Seeing Long Yi had lied down, Xingxing climbed onto him and caressing his bread stubble, she said: "Big brother Long, will you accompany me and my mother hereafter?" She had never been so happy, because of this, she feared to lose this. She feared that big brother Long Yi who made her felt the fatherly warmth would suddenly disappear.
"Well, this big brother cannot stay here forever, but when I have to leave, I will definitely take Xingxing with me, is that okay? In this world, there are many amusing places." Long Yi smiled and said, stroking the soft golden hair of Little Xingxing.
"Then, will my mother go too? If my mother has to live here alone, then she will be lonelier." Little Xingxing said with expectation.
"Yes, your mother is inseparable from Xingxing and Xingxing is also inseparable from your mother, so naturally, everyone will go together." Long Yi said with a smile.
"Big brother Long, you are so nice." Little Xingxing cheered and kissed his face, then ran towards her mother to tell her this good news.
......…
It had already been three days but there was no news of Midi'er and Leguxiya. This made Long Yi felt a bit restless, could it be that Dragon King noticed something? But, if that was truly the case, then how come there was not even a bit of movement?
Late at night, suddenly a clap of thunder resounded and after dark clouds condensed, there was heavy rain. The sea waves became more and more intense and the wind blew stronger and stronger. Some small trees were uprooted and sent flying.
At this moment, tired Xingxing was sleeping in the warm bosom of Long Yi with a sweet smile. In the past, she greatly feared this kind of thunderstorm weather, but now, with a warm bosom of Long Yi protecting her, she felt like that whistling fierce wind had become a lullaby.
As for Long Yi, he half lied on the bed and was pondering about the countermeasures. In any case, he couldn't wait here endlessly. He must figure out what had happened on the main island.
While Long Yi was pondering, the door of his room suddenly opened with a creak. Long Yi who had the ability to clearly see in the dark saw that it was Teresa. He was somewhat amazed in his heart. He had never thought that Teresa would run over so late at night to devote herself.
"Aren't you asleep?" Seeing the eyes of Long Yi, the heart of Teresa jumped and she asked softly.
"Is there something wrong?" Long Yi asked. Clearly, there must be a reason for Teresa to look for him so late at night.
"Don't you want to go to the main island? Tonight is the golden opportunity." Teresa softly said.
The eyebrows of Long Yi shot up and he gently jumped off the bed, then walking out of the room with Teresa, he asked: "Do you have a way?"
"In this kind of weather, a few thousand meters below Divine Dragon Main Island, a freshwater undercurrent would gush out, and the opening of this freshwater undercurrent is linked with a lake located at the center of the main island. But, after a period of time, this freshwater current will produce a kind of suction force and the opening would close quickly afterward. As long as you can seize that moment and jump into that suction force, you will be directly sucked into that lake of Divine Dragon Main Island. Like this, detection magic arrays of the island will not detect you all." Teresa said.
"Really? Is there truly such a place? Merely, do Dragon King and Elders know about this?" Long Yi was pleasantly surprised.
"This method of entry and exit is useable only in thunderstorm weather, I had accidentally found this way when I went to that lake to take bath. At that time, I used this way to sneak out of Divine Dragon Archipelago and go to Divine Dragon Continent, I think no one else should know about this." Teresa said with a smile, remembering the past.
"Then, what are we waiting for? I will go and wake them up now." Long Yi impatiently said in fear that that undercurrent exit would close.
In the midst of heavy rain storm and strong gale, Teresa led Long Yi's group of four to the sea. And since all of them had good swimming ability, they quickly sneaked into undercurrent surge deep in the sea under the guidance of Teresa.
Sure enough, just like Teresa had said, in the depth of the sea, there was a powerful freshwater undercurrent gushing out from a hole, and the seawater around that area was clear, truly was peculiar.
Not long after that, this gushing out freshwater suddenly stopped for a moment, and as if it encountered a huge suction force, the water began to flow black rapidly.
"Now is the time, quickly jump in." Teresa said.
Since they were already here, Long Yi naturally believed Teresa. He jumped in pulling Liuli without any hesitation. And Barbarian Bull and Li Qing followed closely behind, and they disappeared in the blink of an eye. Not long after, the suction force disappeared and the big hole at the depth of the sea quietly closed.
Long Yi held his breath. He only felt like that suction force was pulling him several hundred meters down, then he suddenly began to rise up and shortly afterward, slammed into the lake.
Long Yi pulled Liuli to the surface and heard the sounds of raindrops hitting the lake surface.
Not long after, the heads of Barbarian Bull and Li Qing also popped out of the water surface. Then, four people quietly swam towards the shore of this lake with tacit agreement.
Divine Dragon Main Island was very big, it seemed that it was bigger than all the other islands combined together. But, only Dragon King, his family, seven Great Elders, their family and a few dragon guards lived here. Their numbers add up to less than one hundred. Moreover, with thunder and lightning accompanied by heavy rain tonight, all of them should have gone to their cave to sleep.
The four people safely landed on the shore.
Then, in the dense forest, they found a concealed small cave. Because of the huge build of dragons, they usually didn't linger in this kind of dense forest, therefore they were a lot safer in this small cave.
"Boss, are we going to steal Dragon King Seal?" Barbarian Bull asked.
Long Yi hit the head of Barbarian Bull and coldly said: "Steal a frat, we don't know anything about the circumstance of this island, the most important matter now is to figure out the terrain and find Midi'er siblings."
Barbarian Bull rubbed his head and just smiled. He was full of valor and vigor. His blood boiled for battle, but he completely ignored all kinds of stratagem.
"So, I will go out first to scout the terrain, as for you all, stay here and be sure to not leak your aura." Long Yi warned, then disappeared into the forest.
Long Yi looked all around for high ground and saw the highest peak that pierced through the cloud far away from his position. That peak was very likely to be the place where Dragon King resided. And it was reasonable to say that Midi'er siblings should also be there. Other than this highest peak, there were many other big and small peaks on this island. And further away, it was covered with a hazy mist so he couldn't see the ends of this island.
The area of this main island was somewhat beyond the expectation of Long Yi. If he wanted to clearly understand the terrain of such a big island, then it would take a long time. It seemed that he needed to find Midi'er siblings first. It would be much easier to accomplish their task with their help.
Long Yi flew towards the highest peak of this island. He used his spirit power to create a barrier around him so as to avoid leaking out his aura. According to Midi'er, her father, Divine Dragon King, was the person who had the most prospect in several ten thousand years to breakthrough to Dragon God realm. So, Long Yi could assume that he was very powerful. Perhaps, he might be able to sense and enter the alert state if he leaked even a bit of his aura.
Not long after, Long Yi arrived at the foot of this highest peak. And walking forward a little, he suddenly stopped and quietly blended into the shadow behind a big tree.
At the foot of this mountain, there were dragon guards. Although they were sleeping most of the time, their spirit power always covered the area they should guard.
"It seems it is somewhat troublesome." Long Yi thought. These few dragon guards were very powerful and their spirit power was also not weak. One should know that the perception of spirit power was very sensitive, even if he had completely retracted his aura, as long as he made any movement, he would be noticed. Long Yi could use his Great Cosmos Shift to teleport a few hundred meters, but the problem was, the spirit power of these dragon guards covered more than several hundred meters.
Long Yi had studied space magic a little. Although it was somewhat troublesome, if there was no mistake, then he could teleport to halfway up the mountain from his current position without any problem, but the critical point was using space magic gave rise to a powerful magic fluctuation and it would be noticed easily.
"Honglong" A clap of thunder resounded throughout the sky and several bolts of lightning streak across the sky, leaving behind flashes of silver light.
The eyes of Long Yi shone, in this kind of thunderstorm weather, lightning magic elements should be considered normal. He smiled sinisterly.
With a thought, lightning magic elements within the sea of consciousness of Long Yi spread out and begun to gather dense lightning magic elements in the air.
The dark clouds in the sky were getting denser and denser, and the wind and rain were also getting all the more violent.

"How come this summer rain is going on for so long? In addition, it is getting bigger and bigger." A dragon guard in a huge cave located at the foot of the mountain muttered to himself.
Crackle, a bolt of silverish purple lightning struck a huge rock in front of this dragon guard's cave and was shattered into pieces. This shocked this dragon guard.
But, this was just the beginning, a series of lightning streak across the sky and dozens of lightning struck around the cave of this dragon guard in succession. He was so scared that he shrunk back into his cave.
"Without any reason, why on earth are you striking at my side? Could it be that Heaven is jealous of my too handsome looks?" This dragon guard never thought that someone was using lightning magic to attack him. The first reason was there was no one in Dragon Race that could use lightning magic, and the second reason was he never thought that someone could sneak into this main island without anybody knowing and without triggering any detection magic arrays.
Suddenly, along with an explosion sound, the cave entrance collapsed under the lightning strikes. This dragon guard was trapped inside this cave.
Seeing this, this dragon guard cursed in his heart and retracted his spirit power. And in that brief moment, Long Yi used his Great Cosmos Shift and darted towards the peak.
As for that dragon guard, he used his dragon tail to sweep off the debris blocking the cave entrance, then he spread out his spirit power again to cover the area he had to guard. He didn't know that an outsider had already gone up the mountain.
Chapter 574: Dragon King's Treasure Cave
(Part 1)
Long Yi rushed toward the peak at a lightning fast speed. Very quickly, he arrived before a huge cave with all kinds of sparkling rare treasures paving a wide road toward it. The edges of this cave also had several treasures inlaid on the walls. This made Long Yi sigh. Dragon Race was rich and imposing; merely, they had a poor taste.
In front of this Dragon King's residence, there were no dragon guards. It seemed that Dragon King was very confident. However, this was a good thing for Long Yi.
After observing carefully, Long Yi cautiously entered the cave. Upon entering this cave, he was dumbfounded and muttered, "Path to heaven, this is the path to heaven."
Only allowed on Creativenovels.com
Compared to Liuli's crystal palace in Illusory Forest, this Dragon King��s residence was even more shocking. This cave was over 50 meters tall and over 30 meters wide. In addition, there was a straight passage toward the inner area. But, everything was so shining and dazzling that people would feel dizzy upon seeing this. The cave was more than 500 meters deep and was divided into three more caves that were similarly decorated with treasures. Anyone who saw this kind of scene was bound to lose control of themselves. Compared to this place, even the treasury of Violent Dragon Empire was nothing.
Long Yi resisted his impulse to completely sweep these treasures into his space ring. Everyone knew that all dragons liked treasures, especially the Dragon King. Only ghosts would know whether the Dragon King would sense it if he tampered with these treasures. That would be terrible.
When Long Yi arrived at the three-way fork, he couldn't sense the Dragon King's aura. It was as if the Dragon King's residence was empty.
He casually chose a cave and entered. There, Long Yi saw a stone room lining a long hall, each interspaced a pair of rooms on the other side. These stone rooms were empty. There was neither treasures nor decorations; he didn't know what these stone rooms were for.
After walking for a short while, he reached the end of this cave. There was a barrier emitting a dazzling golden light. This made Long Yi very curious about what was inside this barrier.
Should he break open this barrier and go in? Long Yi hesitated for a bit. The main reason for his trip this time was to find the whereabouts of the Midi'er siblings, so he didn't have time to break this barrier.
Merely, Long Yi's thoughts changed in the next moment. Midi'er siblings lived here, so Dragon King might have used this barrier to trap them?
After justifying his actions, Long Yi decided to break this barrier and take a look. He covered himself with his spirit power then fused his internal power with his spirit power. He leaned against this barrier. With the internal force's property of melting barriers, he believed that he could enter this barrier without anyone knowing. Merely, since this barrier was so strong, it would take some time.
Slowly, Long Yi squeezed into the barrier little by little. In his heart, he prayed, hoping no one would come at this critical moment. Otherwise, with half of his body stuck inside the barrier, let alone fighting, he would be a fish on the chopping board.
After an hour, Long Yi finally passed through this barrier. Before he had time sigh in relief, he felt that it was empty underneath his legs and fell down. Fortunately, he had experienced a lot of dangerous situations, so he quickly stabilized his posture and stopped in mid-air without any noise. If an average person were in his place, his or her first reaction would be screaming in this type of situation.
Long Yi sighed in relief, but he suddenly felt something was wrong. He looked down, and his eyes opened wide. He hastily covered his mouth and nearly let out a scream.
Heavens, what did he see? A dragon, a huge dragon, a huge golden dragon. No matter in build or in luminance of scales, the Midi'er siblings were unable to compare. Now, his legs stopped only a few centimeters away from the head of this huge dragon. He could even feel the huge dragon's hot breath.
Long Yi took a deep breath and carefully scooted away from the wall. Only when he was some distance from this huge sleeping dragon, did he size up this place. This place seemed to be the dwelling of the Dragon King. Below the dragon was a huge pile of gold, silver, treasures and jewels. This dragon actually slept above a mountain of treasures.
"No, he is cultivating whole-heartedly." Seeing a golden light circulating around the huge dragon's body, Long Yi thought. If he had guessed correctly, then this huge dragon should without a doubt be the Dragon King. At this moment, the Dragon King had probably sunk all his consciousness into his sea of consciousness to cultivate, which was known as complete cultivation. Generally, people used this method to cultivate only when in seclusion. The effects of this method were much better than cultivating while using a part of consciousness to sense the outside world.
Dragon King was truly rich. Long Yi couldn't help but sigh. All around were treasures. Dragon King Peak was more than 3,000 meters all. If these treasures were really piled up from the foot of this mountain, the quantity would truly be astonishing.
At this moment, Long Yi felt that Dragon King didn't have any perception towards the outside world. So as long as there were no energy fluctuations outside, it was very unlikely that he would wake from his cultivation. Thus, his courage became much bigger.
"Dragon King, ah Dragon King, in any case, these treasures are useless to you. How about sharing a bit with me? More people being happy is better than only one person being happy." Long YI smirked and muttered while sweeping away the most valuable treasures into his space ring. Soon, two empty plots inside his space ring were filled with treasures.
Just when Long Yi planned to stop before going too far, he suddenly saw a golden seal beneath Dragon King's huge dragon body. This seal had a dragon-shaped mark that was very lifelike. It was as if it would fly out at any time.
"Dragon King Seal?" The pupils of Long Yi shrunk. Dragon King Seal was necessary to enter the forbidden area of the Dragon Race, so how could he return without this precious item?
Long Yi quietly walked over, grasped this Dragon King Seal, and pulled. However, this Dragon King Seal was firmly pressed down by the huge dragon body and didn't budge at all. If he used internal force to pull, he might wake up this Dragon King.
At this point, Long Yi was absolutely unwilling to return empty-handed but also realized that waking up the Dragon King was not worth the gain. He feared that the Dragon King would definitely make him spit out all the treasures he had taken.
Long Yi rubbed the beard stubble on his chin and pondered. Suddenly, his eyes shone as he looked at the Dragon King's stomach. According to his experiment on Midi'er and Sharman, the stomach side of dragons was a very sensitive place. As long as it was lightly stroked, they would feel unbearably ticklish.
Long Yi took out a feather brush from his space ring then lightly swept the stomach side of the Dragon King. The cultivating Dragon King seemed to feel something, and his huge body moved, but the Dragon King Seal remained under its body.
"Your grandfather! I don't believe you will not move." Long Yi muttered and again swept the stomach side of Dragon King.
The huge body of Dragon King trembled and twisted slightly. Taking advantage of this moment, Long Yi pulled the Dragon King Seal from under Dragon King and placed it into his space ring along with the brush, before flying towards the barrier. He wanted to leave now without wasting any moment.
Long Yi snuck out of the cave and noticed that the sky was already bright, with the sun high in the sky. Without the cover of rain and night, it was somewhat difficult to leave Dragon King Peak without anybody noticing. He turned away from Dragon King Cave, wanting to look for another path down but saw two dragon guards halfway up the mountain. He was surprised and approached them. He saw that those two dragon guards guarded a dark cave.
Those two dragon guards seemed very young. Compared to those dragon guards at the foot of the mountain, they were much inferior. Long Yi completely retracted his aura and slowly approached them. He was able to hear their conversation.
Guard A said, "You are so resourceful, laying out a sound insulation barrier. Still, princess and prince were truly too threatening."
Guard B, however, helplessly said, "We two truly have a cruel fate to be selected for such an assignment. You haven't realized yet that since princess is the first Tyrant Dragon King of our Divine Dragon Clan, after they are released by Dragon King, we two will become the punching bags of the princess."
Upon hearing this, Guard A shivered and said, "Is there nothing you can do? We absolutely cannot let them go; otherwise, Dragon King will punish us."
Guard B sighed, "What can I do? We brothers can only prepare to become punching bags. I truly hope that princess will marry soon and find a husband that takes care of her. Otherwise, we will never have a good day."
Upon hearing their conversation, Long Yi smiled. He truly had never thought that Midi'er's infamy had reached this level. And at that moment, he thought of a way.
"You don't have to worry about that; your princess will be marrying very soon." Long Yi suddenly appeared. Now, he was wrapped from head to toe with a robe.
"Who are you?" The two guards immediately became alert. If they hadn't sensed the aura of Divine Dragon Clan from Long Yi, they would have immediately rung the alarm.
"I am the future husband of the princess, the future son-in-law of Dragon King. Now, you all don't need to worry about your future. Princess listens to me the most. If she look at you for trouble, I will teach her a lesson." Long Yi smiled.
Chapter 574: Dragon King's Treasure Cave Part 2
The two dragon guards looked at each other in blank dismay and said, "We have never heard about this matter."
"Of course, you don't know about it. This is still a secret. I hope you two will not spread this matter. If other clansmen know about this, then you two will have a tragic fate. Do you understand?" Long Yi said mysteriously.
"Even if that is true, what are you doing here?" Dragon guard A wasn't stupid; he asked with doubt.
"I came under the Dragon King's order to take away the prince and princess. Dragon King has assigned them a secret mission." Long Yi said solemnly, and a Dragon King Seal dazzling with golden light appeared in his hand.
When those two dragon guards saw this Dragon King Seal, they immediately knelt down, and the suspicions in their hearts disappeared. Under the command of Long Yi, they opened the barrier.
Long Yi stowed the Dragon King Seal and walked into the cave. Inside, he saw Midi'er and Leguxiya sitting listlessly on the ground. They didn't even look over when Long Yi entered.
"Leguxiya, still not coming over to greet your brother-in-law?" Long Yi said with a smirk.
Leguxiya and Midi'er jumped up at the same time and saw Long Yi pulling down his mask.
"Brother-in-law, you... I miss you to death!" Leguxiya with his face covered with tears rushed over to Long Yi, but he was kicked to one side by Long Yi.
"You... how did you come?" Midi'er agitatedly asked.
"My dear, Dragon King made me come take you out." Long Yi said with a smile. Taking two steps forward, he hugged Midi'er's slender waist.
The beautiful face of Midi'er turned red, and she prepared to struggle free, but Long Yi blew hot air in her ear as he whispered, "If you want to get out, be obedient."
When Long Yi walked out of the cave while holding the slender waist of Midi'er who had a bright red face, the mouths of those two dragon guards were wide open in surprise. They watched Long Yi with admiration, all the doubts in their hearts cleared.
"You two, listen, this is a secret matter. Continue to guard here and don't mention anything about this to anyone. Do you understand?" Long Yi said to those two dragon guards.
"Understood, we understand. You can rest assured." The two dragon guards nodded their head while smiling happily. Being able to subdue the first tyrannical dragon king of Dragon Clan, this fellow was absolutely not ordinary. Besides, since Long Yi saved them from the claws of Midi'er, they were very grateful. In addition, Long Yi had the Dragon King Seal, so how could they dare not obey Long Yi?
Only when they escaped the sight of those two dragon guards did Midi'er peel off the hand of Long Yi from her waist and angrily say, "Still not enough hugging!"
"If I said that it wasn't, will you let me hug longer?" Long Yi said with a bad smile.
"Keep on dreaming, if not for the fact that you saved us, I would have already cut off your pig paw," Midi'er snorted.
Long Yi shrugged his shoulders and said nothing.
"By the way, brother-in-law, how did you accomplish this? How did you get in? Why did those fellows listen to your words?" Leguxiya impatiently asked. Midi'er was also quite curious.
"This... I have my means." Thinking of the Dragon King Seal and treasures in his space ring, a proud smile appeared on his face.

Seeing this wicked smile on the face of Long Yi, Midi'er was angry in her heart, but she was honestly too curious. She stood in front of him and grabbed his collar. She ferociously ordered, "Don't keep people guessing, will you tell or not?"
"Can't you be a bit gentler?" Long Yi pointed at her hand gripping his collar and complained.
Midi'er took a deep breath and moved her hand away. Recalling the gentle and soft expressions of his women when facing Long Yi, she took a deep breath. Making a soft and gentle expression, she blinked her eyes and said coquettishly, "Long Yi, tell me please."
Long Yi and Leguxiya were startled. They felt as if lightning struck them, and they shivered as goosebumps appeared all over their body.
"Big sister, don't be so disgusting. As I see it, you can never learn to be soft and gentle in your life." Leguxiya said while rubbing his arms.
Long Yi looked solemn and nodded his head. Seeing Midi'er turn green and then white, he knew that she was about to explode, so he hastily said, "We can change the pattern a bit."
"What pattern?" Midi'er gnashed her teeth and said. She was embarrassed and angry in her heart. For the first time since her birth, she had pretended to be gentle and soft, but these two bastards made fun of her. This was infuriating her to death.
"For instance, let me….. kiss you." Long Yi jumped back after saying this in fear that he would burn himself.
But, beyond the expectations of Long Yi, Midi'er didn't get angry; instead, she remained calm. Looking straight at Long Yi, she said, "Okay, I agree."
"Really?" Long Yi suspiciously asked.
"Really." The fists of Midi'er crackled.
"You are not lying, are you?" Long Yi's eyes shone.
"Not lying... wu..."
The mind of Midi'er instantly blanked out. Her entire body was surrounded by a dense manly aura, her lips completely sealed by Long Yi's big mouth, her heart jumped wildly.
After a few seconds, Long Yi immediately jumped back. The fragrant lips of this she-T. Rex were truly soft and tasted good.
Seeing Midi'er coming back to her senses, Long Yi pulled Lugexiya who was still stunned and asked, "Why on earth are you also in a daze? Still not running away quickly."
Leguxiya blankly responded. He still couldn't figure out why he should flee with Long Yi, but his body involuntarily followed Long Yi.
"Long Yi, don��t run! I want to kill you!" Midi'er angrily screamed and chased after them.
The dragon guards at the foot of the mountain only saw two figures flash past them. Before they could sort out what had happened, Midi'er also flashed past them. Her violent anger made them involuntarily shrink back.
"Who didn't have eyes and provoked the princess? Eh, weren't the princess and prince placed in confinement by Dragon King? Could it be that they were released?" A dragon guard muttered to himself thinking that it was definitely Dragon King who had released them. Dragon King spoiled them too much; he truly should have confined them for several hundred years. Like that, they would not have any disasters.
This was the result Long Yi had wanted: killing two birds with one stone. On one hand, he could steal a fragrant kiss, and on the other hand, he could use Midi'er's anger to avoid the interrogation of these dragon guards at the foot of the mountain.
After Long Yi ran into the forest, he suddenly stopped and turned around. Behind, Midi'er who was chasing after him without sparing any effort was caught off guard and nearly threw herself into his bosom.
"Don't be impulsive. If you alarm the elders, then that would be anything but reassuring," Long Yi watched Midi'er with a broad smile and said.
Midi'er gritted her teeth and struggled to swallow the anger in her heart. How could she let this bad fellow take cheap advantage of her?
"Don't you want to know how I came here, and how I was able to take you two out so easily?" Seeing Midi'er was still feeling indignant, Long Yi hastily asked.
"Speak." Midi'er kicked a big tree down and ordered, coldly looking at Long Yi.
Long Yi was inwardly speechless and immediately told her how he had entered Divine Dragon main island. Taking out the Dragon King Seal from his space ring, he said with a smile, "Take a look, what is this?"
"Dragon King Seal!" The Midi'er siblings exclaimed at the same time.
"How did you obtain it?" Midi'er hastily asked.
"I went to your house to look for you two, but due to a freak combination of factors, I entered the sealed off treasure cave of your father emperor. Fortunately, your father emperor was cultivating, and the Dragon King Seal was right next to him, so I naturally picked it up and left." Long Yi casually said.
"You entered the treasured cave of our father emperor!" The dragon eyes of the siblings shone and looked at Long Yi as if he were a plateful of delicacies.
"Come clean! Other than the Dragon King Seal, did you take other treasures too? All the treasures in that treasure cave are our father's collection, even we cannot take a look at them usually." Midi'er grabbed Long Yi's arm as if she had already forgotten the anger of just a moment ago. One could well imagine the attraction treasure held to a dragon.
"No, I didn't. At the time, I only had my eyes set on Dragon King Seal. In addition, I feared your father emperor would wake up suddenly, so how could I think of taking other things?" Long Yi hastily shook his head. Even if he was killed on the spot, he would not acknowledge his sins.
"Really?"
"Really."
"Are you lying?"
"No."
Midi'er was somewhat disappointed. She was absolutely certain that Long Yi was not telling the truth: she didn't believe that Long Yi lacked the courage, but, since he was not acknowledging it, she could do nothing. Even she and Leguxiya had had thoughts toward the treasures in the treasure cave of her father emperor for a long time. Compared to those treasures, the decorative treasures in other caves were very inferior.
"Now that we have seven Great Elder's Seals and the Dragon King Seal, let's go to the forbidden area of the Dragon Race to rescue Liuxu's parents." Long Yi said.
"We still can't. The forbidden area of our Dragon Race is not located in the master island, and at this moment, we cannot leave; otherwise, we will be noticed by the elders. I think we should wait until another rainfall. Then we can sneak out from that lake you mentioned." Midi'er listlessly said. Usually, when she and Leguxiya went out, those elders would turn a blind eye, but now was not usual times, so they naturally couldn't openly leave like before.
Wait for another thunderstorm? Long Yi frowned. Seeing Midi'er's dejected appearance because she couldn't obtain any treasures, he couldn't help saying with a smile, "Hey, why are you making such expression? Is it because of the treasures? I also have many treasures; moreover, they are not lacking compared to the trinkets in that treasure cave of your father emperor. In the future, after Liuxu's parents are saved, I will give you a portion."
Seeing Long Yi's brilliant smile, Midi'er involuntarily became absent-minded and also smiled beautifully, showing a row of spotlessly white teeth. At this moment, her beautiful face felt hot, her heartbeat accelerated, and she unnaturally moved her eyes away from Long Yi as she recalled that kiss.
"Brother-in-law, will I get a portion too?" Leguxiya stuck in. How could he not know that the treasures of Long Yi came from the treasure cave of his father emperor? Nevertheless, he didn't dare to expose Long Yi; he just wanted to get some treasures.
"Of course, how could I forget my brother-in-law?" Long Yi smirked and winked at Midi'er, making her ashamed and angry.
Long Yi led the Midi'er siblings back to the cave where Liuli and the others had been hiding, but they discovered an empty cave. The three had disappeared without a trace.
Chapter 575: Historical remains
Long Yi felt startled in his heart. Didn't he tell them not to run around? How come no one was here? But, very quickly, he calmed down. Because of their contractual relationships, he could feel that both Liuli and Li Qing weren't in danger; moreover, there were no traces of fighting around this cave. With the strength of these three, no one could capture them without giving them any chance to counterattack.
"Where did they go?" Midi'er asked, feeling uncertain.
Long Yi didn't reply. He scanned the cave: even if they had left because of an urgent matter, they would probably have left a trace.
At that time, a white light burst out from the ground, and Barbarian Bull carrying the Greenstone Rule appeared in front of Long Yi.
"Boss, you've finally returned," Barbarian Bull happily said, seeing Long Yi.
"What is going on here?" Long Yi asked.
Barbarian Bull looked at the Midi'er siblings and pulled Long Yi to one side before whispering, "Boss, we found something good under this cave."
"What good thing?" Long Yi curiously asked.
"You will know when you come with me. Li Qing told me to only tell Boss, but should we take along Midi'er and Leguxiya too?" Barbarian Bull asked.
Long Yi thought for a moment. Since Li Qing had instructed so, the thing they had discovered must not be a small matter.
"Hey, what are you two whispering about? Is there something that is not fit to reveal to us?" Midi'er said with dissatisfaction.
"It's nothing like that. It seems Barbarian Bull and others have found something interesting. Let's go to take a look," Long Yi said with a smile. Now, the Midi'er siblings and he were on the same side; moreover, he considered them his good friends. It was fine to not conceal anything from them and share a few benefits.
Barbarian Bull ventured deeper inside the cave. Waving his Greenstone Rule, a green light shot towards the wall. A magic door sparkling with a milky white radiance appeared on the wall.
Long Yi and his group were surprised and entered the magic door in a single file. Immediately after that, a bright light shone in front of their eyes, and they arrived inside the huge grotto.
"Heavens..., Dragon God..., how could this be?" Midi'er and Leguxiya trembled, and their minds became chaotic.
Inside the cave, they saw a huge Dragon God's skeleton whose bones emitted a sparkling radiance. At first glance, one might even mistakenly think that this skeleton was made from jade. However, this skeleton was not complete; it was broken into three pieces. Among them, the skull was cracked. Presumably, it had fought a tragic battle before its demise.
What surprised Long Yi was that there were humanoid skeletons scattered all around this huge grotto. Merely, these humanoid skeletons differed from ordinary mortals' skeletons. They also had different colored radiant auras circulating around them; moreover, they each had a pair or two of bone wings sprouting off their spines.
At this moment, Midi'er and Leguxiya had already knelt in front of the Dragon God's skeleton while trembling. Their expressions were solemn and respectful as they chanted a peculiar incantation.
After listening to the incantation of the Midi'er siblings, Long Yi learned that this broken skeleton of a Dragon God belonged to a Dragon God from unknown ages ago. The humanoid skeletons with bone wings on their backs were presumably superhumans. It was very likely that they came from the Divine World. This scene in front of them ought to be the skeletons left behind from some great battle of gods and demons.
At this time, Liuli and Li Qing returned from the depth of this grotto. They looked shocked.
"Young Master, you should go inside and take a look." Li Qing's tone fluctuated. This was very rare for him.
Long Yi and others quickly went to the depths of this grotto, and in the blink of an eye, they arrived at the bottom of this cave. Immediately upon arriving, an ice-cold evil aura blew against their faces, and they felt a chill down to their bone marrow.
Only allowed on Creativenovels.com
Long Yi used his spirit power to create an isolation barrier around them. Everyone was shocked by the withered huge strange corpse at the bottom of this cave. This corpse still stood straight, roughly ten meters tall. Its entire body was pitch black like ink. Its two dried legs had black fur grown all over them and each leg had four toes that were deeply embedded in the solid ground. This corpse didn't have hands: long tentacles grew from its back and chest. As for its head, it was triangular in shape and had a silverish white lance stuck in the middle. If this lance had chopped down a bit more, its head would have been cut in half. Its two huge eyes were still open, making people not dare to look straight at it. Looking straight at its eyes made them feel as if their souls would be pulled out of their bodies.
"What kind of monster is this?" Barbarian Bull exclaimed in shock. Clearly, this was also his first time arriving here.
"Young Master, look over there too." Li Qing pointed beside this corpse.
Long Yi looked over and saw a humanoid skeleton with three pairs of bone wings hanging off a cliff face. Three of the the monster's tentacles had pierced through his chest and nailed him onto this cliff.
Now, Long Yi could imagine the circumstances of a fierce fight. This monster alone had fought against the Dragon God and hundreds of birdmen led by this six-winged birdman. They had finally all perished together here on Divine Dragon Archipelago. Such a terrifying strength made him feel a chill in his heart.
No need to speak about the strength of Dragon God. This six-winged birdman should also not be a mediocre person from the Divine World. One should know that the Light God was merely an eight-winged birdman, and he was one of the seven main gods. Thus, this six-winged birdman should have been powerful and just a step below the Light God, so he should have been comparable to first-tier gods.
Nevertheless, this monster was able to kill him along with the Dragon God. Was this monster the legendary Demon King?
All sorts of thoughts flashed through Long Yi's mind. Looking at the lance emitting a dense light aura from the head of this monster, his heart was perturbed. Even from first sight, he knew this lance was a good thing. In any case, since this lance no longer had an owner, how could he let it go?
Long Yi flew up, and covering his hands with spirit power, he grabbed the lance on the monster's head.
"Don't." At that time, a voice resounded in Long Yi's ears.
But, it was already too late. The big hands of Long Yi had already grabbed the lance. Long Yi immediately felt an ice cold aura directly enter his body via his hands. Then the surroundings around him changed. He only felt as if he were thrown into a sea of blood. Blood waves slammed against him again and again. In addition, a ruthless, sinister, cold, and tyrannical aura enveloped him, making him want to kill everyone and destroy everything.
Below, Liuli, Barbarian Bull and Li Qing saw a black mist burst out from the monster the instant that Long Yi grabbed the lance, completely enveloping Long Yi. They wanted to rush over, but an invisible energy barrier had blocked them off, so they could only watch in worry.
The commotion within had alarmed the Midi'er siblings, and they rushed over, but they could also do nothing in this situation. They could only watch that black mist grow thicker and thicker.
Long Yi, however, still felt as if he were floating on a blood sea. His killing intent increased more and more, and this ** overturned his bottom line beliefs. It was as if an evil seed had been sown, germinated, grown up and finally, become an evil tree that blotted out the sky and the sun, keeping out all sunlight and rain.
At this moment, the handsome face of Long Yi was twisted with pain, and when he opened his eyes, his pitch black pupils were instead blood red. Then, a warm aura came rushed from the bottom of his heart, and his pupils reverted to their normal black color. This happened repeatedly, and the warm aura from the bottom of his heart slowly contended against that black qi, pushing it back.
At this moment, in Long Yi's space ring, the Light God statue emitted a lustrous white light, and an indistinct shadow appeared. The wispy shadows coalesced into a strange symbol.
Suddenly, that Light God statue flashed with brilliant radiance and connected to Long Yi's sea of consciousness. The Light Spirit Tablet spun rapidly, and that warm aura at the bottom of his heart strengthened, gaining an advantage over that black qi.
At this moment, the blood red pupils of Long Yi had already reverted back to black and no longer turned blood red.
In the eyes of Barbarian Bull and others, that black mist shrunk. As if it had encountered a magnet, it streamed into Long Yi's body. In the blink of an eye, there was no more black mist around Long Yi. Now, they could see Long Yi once more and sighed in relief. At this moment, he held a lance in his hand, and his black hair fluttered in the air. His pitch-black pupils were clear like black glass pearls, but there were no fluctuations of recognition within them.
Long Yi slowly floated down, and the energy around him also dispersed. Liuli and others immediately rushed to his side.
"Young Master, are you alright?" Liuli held Long Yi's arm and anxiously asked.
Only after a long time, did the pitch-black pupils of Long Yi flash and could familiar emotions be seen within his eyes. Merely, those eyes seemed to have become even darker, and it appeared as if they hid mysterious and ancient tales, making people deeply attracted to them.
"Why are you all looking at me like this? I just picked up this lance. Do you all also want it?" Long Yi asked with a smile. He still felt a lingering fear of that illusion, but he maintained his composure.
His familiar tone made everyone relax, and at that moment, Liuli suddenly exclaimed, "Young Master, that monster disappeared!"
Sure enough, that terrifying monster seemed to have disappeared into thin air without leaving behind any residues.
"Boss, that monster seemed to have transformed into black mist and entered your body," Barbarian Bull said.
"Is that so? That was a nice feeling. No wonder I am in such great spirits now. Maybe I ate it," Long Yi smiled and spoke, stretching his body.
"Young Master, are you truly feeling fine?" Liuli worriedly asked. Just a moment ago, she felt as if Long Yi had truly been in danger.
"Of course, I am fine. By the way, look at these bones, they contain dense elemental energy. Shouldn't we make the best use of them? These are much better than energy stones," Long Yi examined the skeleton of the six-winged birdman and said. If he let his little sister Ximen Wuhen and Si Bi absorb this elemental energy, they would definitely make great progress.
"Long Yi, these are the remains of the Divine World's angels. How can you disrespect them like this?" Midi'er angrily said.
"How do you know that I am disrespecting them? You know I'm someone in high standing with the Light God. According to the dedication of the Light God, they would definitely be very happy being able to benefit others even after their death. " Long Yi rolled his eyes and said.
"You…" Midi'er was speechless. They were already dead, so no one knew what they wanted. However, Long Yi mischievously misinterpreted the doctrine of Light God, making her unable to refute.
Chapter 576: Six-Winged Angel
Fiddling with the glittering, translucent jade-like lance in his hand, Long Yi felt as if he had the power of a god. This lance was almost certainly a divine grade weapon of the light attribute and was only a grade below the Lightning God Hammer. He pondered whether he should hold this lance for Ximen Wuhen or Si Bi. However, both Ximen Wuhen and Si Bi excelled in long-range light magic, but this lance was a close combat light-attributed weapon.
Liuli began to explain how they had found this location after Long Yi had left. It turned out that after Long Yi left to examine the terrain, Barbarian Bull had suddenly comprehended a form of his Evil Vanquishing Technique. Being unable to endure the anticipation, he had practiced that technique, but who would have thought that the green light shot out from Greenstone Rule would hit the wall of this cave and cut open the magic gate? Thus, they discovered these historical remains that had been buried for an unknown number of years. They were greatly shocked upon seeing these ruins. Just the remains of that Dragon God were enough to shock the entire world; in addition, there were angels and that unknown strange monster.
"Young Master, Young Master, what happened?" After speaking, Liuli saw that Long Yi was in a daze, so she couldn't help but call his name out.
Long Yi came back to senses and said with a smile, "Nothing, just thinking of something."
Long Yi was thinking about that warning voice he had heard when he had first grabbed the lance stuck in the head of that monster. He found it very hard to express that voice. It had been very indistinct, but was also very clear. It had seemed like a female voice but also like a male voice, very conflicting. He was very eager to figure out whose voice it was and also wanted to ask him what that monster was. But, was it all just his hallucination? What was going on here? After that monster had disappeared, the dense pitch-black mist had appeared in his sea of consciousness; what was that?
All these made Long Yi feel uneasy, especially that pitch-black mist that had materialized out of thin air in his sea of consciousness. Every time he used his spirit power to examine it, a kind of bloody, cold and ruthless feeling would appear in his heart. It was different from dark magic. Dark magic only had a murkily threatening inclination, but this pitch-black mist was completely evil. It was equivalent to a ticking bomb in his sea of consciousness that could explode at any time. But, what made Long Yi even more worried was the vast evil qi it contained. If this evil qi corroded his mind someday, he feared that he would degenerate into a real devil.
He would exist only for the sake of destruction.
"Boss, should we pack up these skeletons?" Barbarian Bull asked.
"No, how can you say that? This was found in our Dragon Island! We should be the ones to decide how to deal with them," Midi'er opposed before Long Yi could reply.
"That is also true. This indeed is your Divine Dragon Island, but if these skeletons insisted on going with me, I can also do nothing about it," Long Yi said with a smile.
"Brother-in-law, I never thought that you would brag more than me. If you can make them follow you, I will listen to whatever you say hereafter," Leguxiya proclaimed, not believing Long Yi.
Long Yi spun the lance in his hand a few times and pointed at the skeleton of the six-winged angel. Then, along with the slight movement of his lips, a layer of dim light flashed through Long Yi's black eyes.
"Kacha, kacha" That skeleton of six-winged angel unexpectedly stood up and walked toward Long Yi step by step. Suddenly raising his hands, he grabbed the translucent lance in Long Yi's hands.
Long Yi was surprised. He had used undead magic to awaken this skeleton, but he had not ordered this skeleton to grab the lance. Was this some strange skeleton?
Long Yi loosened his hand, and the six-winged angel took the lance away, before standing still in front of him. Everything was so natural. It seemed that this lance had indeed been his weapon. Was there still a bit of his consciousness in this skeleton?
"You... are you using undead magic?" Midi'er exclaimed in surprise.
"Have you ever seen an undead that snatches a weapon by himself?" Long Yi frowned and asked a question in reply.
"Are you saying he is conscious? But, that's impossible!" Midi'er shook her head, watching Long Yi and the skeleton incredulously.
"This world is very insane, nothing is impossible." Long Yi's left hand flashed with red light, and Long Two wielding the Death Scythe appeared in front of everyone. Now, with Long Two and this six-winged angel skeleton together, they created a Yin-Yang contrast of black and white. One held the holy and pure lance, and the other held the evil Death Scythe, and both of them had six bony outgrowths from their backs. They looked like a pair of twins. Merely compared to Long Two, this angle skeleton looked too weak.
"Big brother." A dark qi flashed around Long Two, and this six-winged angel skeleton was unexpectedly blown a few meters away. Then, he mechanically greeted Long Yi.
That six-winged angel skeleton crawled up from the ground and returned to Long Yi's side as if it hadn't felt any pain.
Long Yi patted the shoulder of Long Two and said with a smile, "Long Two, look, I have found you a companion! Aren't you satisfied?"
Long Two turned around, and the red light in his eye sockets flickered upon looking at that six-winged angel skeleton. He then mechanically said, "Big brother, I don't like his aura."
Long Yi seemed to be lost in thought as he recalled that scene in the dark space where the light spirit tablet and dark spirit tablet were mutually conforming and said with a smile, "Light and dark are not incompatible. Listen to big brother. Try to accept him, and since it is lonely to stay alone in the dark dimension space, you can discuss passion or whatever with him if there is nothing else to do. If you are annoyed, then you can also beat him."
Long Two instinctively rejected this six-winged angel, but he would still listen to Long Yi. Even if Long Yi asked him to destroy himself, he would not hesitate in the slightest.
Pa, the Death Scythe in the hands of Long Two suddenly flashed with red light and swatted toward this six-winged angel skeleton. That poor skeleton was sent flying and slammed against the cliff. Cracks spread on his bone hand that held the lance. Clearly, Long Two was carrying out the orders of Long Yi; he was beating the white angel because he was in a bad mood.
Ignoring the dumbfounded Midi'er siblings, Long Yi used undead repair magic. After repairing the cracked bone hand of this six-winged angel, he put both him and Long Two into his dark dimension space. If his vision had not blurred just a moment ago, he had clearly seen that the moment when Long Yi's Death Scythe had landed on him, that skeleton had actually raised his lance to block. Did that mean that this bit of his remaining consciousness had also been reawakened by his undead summoning magic? Would this skeleton also evolve automatically like Long Two? If that was the case, then he had picked up a treasure.
"Impossible, how can undead be conscious?" Midi'er muttered. It was nothing strange for her to not believe this. Other than the King of the legendary Undead World, undead basically didn't have any consciousness at all. Even those evil zombies, Golden Skeletons, and other greater undead were no exceptions.
As a matter of a fact, Long Two had appeared in the fierce battle at the imperial palace, but at that time, Midi'er had been seriously injured and Leguxiya had been busy becoming Long Yi's arrow. They had yet to really see Long Two, so they were now shocked. Nevertheless, the matter of Long Two being conscious was no secret to the other people close to Long Yi.
"As I told you earlier, there is nothing impossible in this world." Long Yi smiled and walked out. He stopped in front of the broken skeleton of the Dragon God. This Dragon God skeleton was badly damaged. He wondered if he could repair it with his undead repair magic. If he could repair this skeleton and summon it as his undead, then he would have a big helping hand. After all, this was a skeleton of the Dragon God. Even after death, his might still exist.
Behind him, Midi'er and Leguxiya saw Long Yi seeming to have wicked thought about the remains of this Dragon God. They couldn't help becoming anxious and rushed forward to stop Long Yi. If Long Yi dared to do something, then they would fight to stop him, even if it meant risking their lives.
"Eh... I am just looking at it with reverence. You two can rest assured. This Dragon God can be considered your ancestor. How could I have any evil thoughts?" Long Yi laughed hollowly, giving up the alluring thought after considering the feeling of Dragon Race. If someone summoned the skeleton of his ancestor as an undead, he would also definitely get violent.
"That would be for the best, you can take away the skeleton of that six-winged angel, but leave the others." Midi'er heaved a sigh of relief and said, but her tone wasn't strong; instead, it had a hint of pleading. Divine Dragon Clan venerated the Light God, and they greatly respected the angels of the Divine World, so she didn't want these angles who had died gloriously in action to reduce to an undead under the control of other people.
"No problem! How can I not give any face to the first Tyrant Dragon King of the Dragon Clan?" Long Yi said with a smile. After obtaining the skeleton of the six-winged angel, he was no longer interested in these two-winged and four-winged angels.
Midi'er rolled her eyes at Long Yi, but she was happy in her heart because he had listened to her opinion.
Long Yi looked at this huge grotto once again and said, "Let's go now; we'll leave this place to your Dragon Clan."
The entire group returned to the cave, and the magic gate disappeared without a trace. In order to confirm that they could open the magic gate in the future again, Midi'er used her dragon power to hit the wall, but there was no response at all.
"Barbarian Bull, go and try again." Long Yi said.
Barbarian Bull swung his Greenstone Rule and along with sparkling radiance, the magic gate appeared.
"Why can he do it, but I can't?" Midi'er asked. She was a bit miffed that there was something on the Dragon Island beyond her control.
Long Yi thought for a bit and made everyone try it. Li Qing could, Liuli couldn't, he could, but Leguxiya couldn't.
"I think this magic gate needs divine power to open. Wait until we've rescued Liuxu's parents. Perhaps, this can be an important condition to haggle with your father emperor; otherwise, only after your father emperor advances to Dragon God realm, will he be able to open it." Long Yi reached this conclusion after analyzing the situation. Without needing to speak about himself, the Greenstone Rule of Barbarian Bull contained the Mad God's incomplete soul sealed within it, as for Li Qing, he had the bloodline of a god. Their divine connections made it so they could open that magic gate while the others couldn't.
Midi'er couldn't help but sigh. "My father emperor will definitely rebuke me and Leguxiya for being unfilial. Now, I also don't know whether or not this is the right thing to do."
"It is nothing that serious. We all have the same purpose, to save the parents of Liuxu. It is not that you are abandoning your ancestor. You also know that your father emperor will not think like this. After rescuing the parents of Liuxu, he will not blame you too much. He would at most put a show of doing something without really doing anything to appease those stubborn elders." Long Yi smiled and patted the beautiful face of Midi'er.
"Be that as it may, I always feel like my action is a kind of betrayal," Midi'er angrily slapped off the hand of Long Yi and said. If she got accustomed to such actions from him, that would absolutely not be a good phenomenon.
"As long as you have a clear conscience, it will not be considered betrayal. Your aunt has already been tortured for more than one thousand years in your Divine Dragon Clan's forbidden area. Could it be that that still isn't enough?" Long Yi asked.

"Fine, fine, you are correct, I am the problematic one. Now, let's wait for some thunderstorm weather and leave this main island through that lake. If my father emperor wakes up before we can flee, that would be bad." Midi'er was upset, but she didn't think much about it. Since she had already embarked on this path, there was no turning back.
...........
The sky gradually dimmed, and the sky filled with stars. Looking up, one could see countless twinkling stars. Lying on the grassland to admire this scenery while accompanied by a gentle breeze was very pleasant.
"Long Yi, it seems like it's almost the time." Midi'er flew over to the side of Long Yi, bringing along a fragrant wind.
Long Yi who was lying on the grassland looked over. He watched Midi'er's beautiful face. The more he looked, the happier he became.
"What are you looking at? It is already so late, when are you going to make it rain?" Seeing the gaze of Long Yi, her beautiful face became hot, and she was somewhat unable to endure this gaze.
"Why are you so anxious? It is still so early. Why don't you appreciate this beautiful starry sky. Look, do you see that brightest star? That is me," Long Yi smiled and pointed at the brightest star in the east and jested.
Midi'er sat down beside him and looked at the direction Long Yi was pointing. She saw a very dazzling star.
"Then, where am I?" Midi'er knew that there was a profession called Prophecy Master who she believed could use stars as their medium to predict the future.
"The sixth one next to me is you. The first one that is sticking to me is Xiao Yi, the second one is Xiangyun, the third one is Liuli, the fourth one is... aiyo..., what are you doing?" Long Yi innocently looked at Midi'er who was panting in rage.
"All the stars next to you are your women. I am not your woman. How can I be next to you?" Midi'er glared at Long Yi, but her heart was secretly beating rapidly. Why was she sixth!?
"Oh, is that so? If you hadn't mentioned that, I truly wouldn't have noticed that. It's so strange. Why can't you be next to me even though you are not my woman?" Long Yi smiled and asked looking at Midi'er.
"I don't feel like reasoning with you." The beautiful face of Midi'er became red, and she ran away.
Long Yi just smiled and caressed the sparkling prophecy pearl on his chest while looking at that vast starry sky. Xiao Yi, can you feel my heart?
"Xiao Yi, what do the two prophecies that you gave me in my dream mean?" Long Yi sighed and muttered.
The first prophecy had arrived before entering Lightning God Forbidden Area which stated: "Blue waves in chaos, Lightning God descends, bloodshed in just cause illuminating the human world, cleaving the firmament relying on the sword." At first, he had thought that the third phrase's "bloodshed in just cause" was some kind some blood, but later, after considering the problem for a while, he had thought that it might be the metaphor for a spirit that was loyal unto the death. Then, was cleaving the firmament relying on the sword referring to the Lightning God Hammer?
And the second prophecy had occurred in Blue Moon City and stated that, "distant ocean nation, continent vanishing into thin air, evil curse of god, my sweetheart, your end comes at the end of light and dark."
He didn't know the meaning before, but now, he understood some. Ocean nation should be pointing out Undersea City which had been built by the sea races. The continent should be the Blue Moon Continent. The curse of god might be the evil curse that led to the fall of Divine World. Merely, he had never been able to guess what exactly the end of light and dark was.
As if feeling the confusion of Long Yi, the prophecy pearl on his chest emitted a milky white radiance, warming his heart. And with that warm aura circulating in his hands, a white beautiful figure seemed to appear in the sky. Her transparent eyes were filled with wisdom as if she grasped everything in the universe.
After a long time, Long Yi stood up from the grassland. Since it was already so late in the night, it was time to leave.
A group of people gathered at a lakeside, and the lightning spirit tablet in Long Yi's sea of consciousness glimmered with a silverish purple radiance, then he used his spirit power to draw the magic elements in the air. Those lightning magic element spirit cheerfully rushed towards Long Yi, and they intimately ran into him to greet his presence. Immediately afterward, dark clouds appeared in the starry night along with a fierce wind.
Crackle! Lightning streaked across the sky along with thunder. The others were nearly blown to the ground by the fierce wind. Not long after, big droplets of rain fell, which instantly became a heavy downpour.
"This damned weather! How come it is changing so quickly?" A dragon guard patrolling the bottom of the Dragon King Peak cursed then shrunk back into his cave, fearing the lightning might strike him again.
"My husband, I am so afraid." The attractive wife of Elder Feili shrunk into the bosom of Elder Feili and said coquettishly.
"Don't fear, don't you have me?" Elder Feili hugged his beloved wife, but he was helpless in his heart. The needs of this wife were too excessive. Even though his beard was already white, his will was still not firm. He was unable to endure the teasing of his wife, so he began to make love with her to make the next generation of Dragon Clan.
Long Yi and his group snuck into the center of the lake, and when the passage connecting to outside opened, all of them jumped in without any hesitation. Not long after, all of them had already escaped the main island.
After everyone popped out of the sea's surface, the dark clouds in the sky dissipated, and the starry sky looked even more serene than before.
Long Yi led everyone back to the small island where Xingxing's family resided. Just when they landed on the shore, they saw Teresa wearing a golden skirt holding Xingxing. Both watched them with smiles on their faces.
"Big brother Long, you came back! Xingxing missed you very much." Upon seeing Long Yi, Xingxing was very happy. She immediately jumped down and rushed into Long Yi's bosom and hugged him tightly, promising to herself that she would never let him go.
Chapter 577: Cyan Wind Empire
Holding Little Xingxing, Long Yi gently kissed her forehead. Looking over at Teresa, he said, "It's so moving that you didn't sleep and specially waited for us here."
Teresa smiled warmly. Looking at Xingxing in Long Yi's bosom, she said, "After you all left, this girl kept on crying. I haven't been able to sleep since yesterday, so without any other choices, we came here to wait for your return. I saw the weather suddenly changing and guessed that you all were returning."
Long Yi was startled. Patting the little butt of Xingxing, he said, "Little Xingxing, were you disobedient?"
Xingxing looked up and felt Long Yi's cheeks with her little hands. She pouted, "Big brother Long, you didn't keep your word! You said that you would never leave me and my mother, but you ran away when Xingxing was sleeping."
Long Yi felt somewhat sad in his heart and apologized, "Fine, it's big brother Long's fault, but why didn't you sleep?"

"Without big brother Long, Xingxing will neither sleep nor eat." Xingxing acted like a spoiled child.
Long Yi didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but he felt a kind of indescribable happiness in his heart. It truly was a good feeling.
At this time, Liuli, Barbarian Bull and Li Qing greeted Teresa. As for Midi'er and Leguxiya, they watched Teresa in a daze.
"Two naughty ghosts, don't you two recognize your aunt?�� Teresa smiled. Striding toward them, she rubbed the heads of the siblings.
"Aunt Teresa, you are Aunt Teresa! It turns out you were living in this island. Every time I asked where you were to Father Emperor, he'd never told me," Midi'er said with some excitement. When she was young, Sa Lianya and Teresa regularly played with her, so she had a particularly deep feeling towards them. Merely, after Teresa had snuck out eight hundred years ago, she had no longer heard any news about her.
Teresa's beautiful eyes became somewhat dim as she sighed. "Your father has his own difficulties. Okay, let's return first."
By the time they had returned to Teresa's log cabin, Xingxing had already fallen asleep in Long Yi's bosom. Now, Long Yi and the others drank tea while discussing the matter of rescuing Liuxu's parents from the forbidden area of the Dragon Clan.
However, only elders of the Dragon Clan and the Dragon King were qualified to enter the forbidden area, so no one knew what was inside.
......….
Blue Moon Continent.
A cold and austere aura enveloped the atmosphere that was warm with spring. In order to compete for the limited resources, an endless battle between all the big races had begun. Many lives had been shed, and many more remained to be reaped.
Trees cut down, flowers trampled underfoot, and cities burned down. The victims had nowhere to hide: their only fate was dying unburied in the wilds. The war in this place was much crueler than the war on Blue Waves Continent because the war was not for power but rather for survival. Blue Moon Continent, which had once been a fairyland, had already changed beyond recognition.
Now, Blue Moon Continent was divided into two big opposing camps. The agglomeration of the dwarf, elf and other humanoid races were in the human camp. The agglomeration of the winged people, spirit, and half-beast races were in the spirit camp.
Cyan Wind Empire was the foremost empire of mankind. Emperor Mu Qingming naturally assumed the leadership of the human camp. At this moment, it was late at night. The sky was full of stars, but Mu Qingming wasn't feeling sleepy at all. He stood in front of a window with a frown, gazing at the lands below. A warm breeze blew against his face, carrying the faint whiff of gunpowder.
"Your Majesty, please eat this midnight snack." A beautiful woman walked in, bringing a delicate fragrance, and placed a food tray on a table. The so-called midnight snack was just a small dish of sliced meat, plateful vegetables, and a bottle of alcohol. This was the best food available even for those in power, so one could well imagine the life of the common people.
Mu Qingming turned around. Looking at this woman, his sharp eyes instantly became gentle and soft. He slowly walked over, sat down and said, "Let's eat together."
"I am not hungry, Your Majesty," That woman softly said.
Mu Qingming also didn't request her to join him again. He picked up a piece of sliced meat, put it into his mouth, chewed for a long time and sighed. There was a hint of exhaustion revealed on his face.
The heart of this woman tightened a little. This man had killed decisively throughout his entire life. He had iron in his veins and was ruthless. It had been nearly thirty years since she had begun staying together with him, but she had never seen this kind of expression. It seemed as if he had instantly gotten a lot older.
"Cyan Wind Empire is trapped. All three paths of reinforcements are already cut off, and the spirit clan has already occupied Cyan Wind Plain. Moreover, we don't have sufficient food. We can hold on for at most only two months." Mu Qingming closed his eyes and his beard lightly trembled.
The woman was neither surprised nor afraid. Clearly, she had already known this. She walked over to Mu Qingming and gently massaged his head.
"Yan'er, how is that girl?" After a long time, Mu Qingming opened his eyes and asked.
"After waking up, she has been staying at Tianya Mountain in a daze. She doesn't want to see anyone." The woman softly sighed. Walking over to the desk, she lifted a piece of black cloth, revealing a head-sized crystal ball. Then, she silently chanted an incantation. A hint of radiance appeared around her hand, and mist circulated inside the crystal ball. Not long after, an image appeared inside. On the tall mountain peak, a lonely and thin figure sat quietly in a daze, watching the boundless starry sky.
"I owe her too much. Merely, I had never expected that her heart would be moved so easily," Mu Qingming spoke while watching that figure in the crystal ball.
"Your Majesty, although Hanyan is very capable, she is also just a young girl. According to the words of Halei, that man appears to be a stunning personage, and his strength is also unfathomable. If we can request him to help out, then perhaps, this disaster might be prevented. Although Yan'er once schemed against him, he presumably also knows her affection for him. He will not stand by with folded arms," The woman softly commented.
"How could I have never thought of that? It's just that all three energy stones that could cut open the energy barrier have already been used up. Since Master Yeli has yet to discover the method of breaking the energy barrier, this hope is only a daydream," Mu Qingming shook his head and said.
The woman opened her mouth as if to speak but then stopped.
"If you have something to say, then say it," said Mu Qingming.
"Your Majesty, in the shrine…"
"Shut up! If you dare to mention that again, I will not let you off lightly even in light of all our years together. Take away this midnight snack." Before the woman finished speaking, Mu Qingming angrily interrupted. The woman kept quiet out of fear with a pale face.
The woman saluted with a tremble and walked out. Only after that, did Mu Qingming sigh softly. He wore a complicated look. Then, he walked over to the desk and waved his big hand above the crystal ball. The scenery inside the crystal ball changed. Inside were ruined pillars and broken tiles. There were several spotlessly white pillars and several broken statues littering the ground. Everything was covered with a layer of thick dust. It looked endlessly desolate.
