Volume 2 Dragon Bird Chapter 42: A Losing Game
"It's just a small favor, not worth mentioning." Qin Yitian didn't care about Mo Yan's thanks. He looked at Lu Qingshan with his phoenix eyes and asked Lu Qingshan in a cold and transparent voice: "However, I have nowhere to go for the time being. Where are you going next? Can I go with you?"
Lu Qingshan was stunned.
Qin Yitian's request was really beyond his expectations.
But he had to admit that although he didn't know why, he felt extremely happy to be with Qin Yitian.
So Lu Qingshan just thought about it for a moment, then made up his mind, and turned to ask Mo Yan, "Is it convenient for you?"
Next, they would return to Jiaolong Island via a small teleportation array.
As the small teleportation array was one of the secrets of the Dragon Slaying Sword, Lu Qingshan was not sure whether Mo Yan would be willing to let a stranger like Qin Yitian come into contact with it.
Mo Yan shook his head. "Of course, no problem. Let's set off back to the island now. This trip to Longtan was helped by Miss Qin. Although there were some twists and turns, the mission was completed unexpectedly smoothly. With the speed of the Jiao Clan, we can even return to Jiaolong Island before they land on the island."
"Then let's set off now." Lu Qingshan agreed.
Mo Yan nodded, activated his escape technique, and moved under the sea.
"Why did Miss Qin appear in the Jiao Clan's territory? And why is she so familiar with the Dragon Pond?" Lu Qingshan couldn't help asking while on the way, and then added: "If it's inconvenient to say, then forget it."
If Qin Yitian only knew the location of the Dragon Demon King's cave, it might not be too surprising.
But obviously, the second exit of the Dragon Pond is a passage that even the Jiao clan does not know about. Even the Jiao clan who have occupied the Dragon Pond for thousands of years does not know about it . Why does Qin Yitian know so much about it?
Qin Yitian thought for a moment, then pursed his lips and said, "Those dragon beasts were not the masters of the Dragon Pond. They were just a group of latecomers. How could they be more familiar with the Dragon Pond than I am?"
Lu Qingshan was slightly shocked.
The subtext of Qin Yitian's words seemed to be that she was the owner of Longtan.
If Qin Yitian wasn't just speaking casually, then her true origins would be intriguing.
Lu Qingshan's guesses about Qin Yitian's identity gave rise to many new fantasies in his mind.
If the Jiao Clan knew that Qin Yitian followed them out of the Dragon Pond, the scene would be quite funny...
…
The exit of Longtan.
Hundreds of dragons and beasts were on high alert, guarding the exit.
Just when Lu Qingshan and others left the Dragon Pond, something in the Dragon Pond seemed to be slowly fading away.
After a while, a dragon beast finally noticed something was wrong and reacted.
"Jiaochen, did you feel it too?" Commander Jiaoyuan was a little uncertain and asked another third-grade Jiao beast beside him.
Jiao Chen said in disbelief: "The power of the dragon breath lingering in the dragon pond seems to be... weakening. How is this possible? For thousands of years, the dragon breath in the dragon pond has never changed. Why would it suddenly begin to weaken?"
…
Above the sea.
Hundreds of dragon beasts flew through the air with great momentum.
At the front of the group of dragon beasts was the dragon demon king, which was over sixty feet long, and its huge eyes were filled with coldness.
Not far away, the outline of Jiaolong Island came into view.
At his speed, he should have reached Jiaolong Island long ago.
However, this time he did not go to the island alone, but brought most of the warriors of his tribe with him. In order to reach the island together with the dragon beasts of his tribe, he naturally could not slow down, so he was delayed for so long.
"Human race, damn it!" The Dragon Demon King's heart was filled with resentment and hatred.
The Dragon Slaying Sword used on his only offspring undoubtedly touched his reverse scale and made him furious.
…
With a flash of light, Lu Qingshan and the other three appeared at the other end of the teleportation array, on Jiaolong Island.
As soon as he appeared, Mo Yan quickly took out a communication token from his storage ring . Several spiritual messages were sent out to understand the current situation. After a few breaths, Mo Yan breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I have indeed caught up. The Jiaolong Monster King has not yet arrived at Jiaolong Island. Fellow Daoist Lu, I need to rush to the front battlefield to see if I can help. I will take my leave for now."
Afterwards, Mo Yan thought for a moment, took out two spiritual stones from his storage ring, covered them with spiritual power, and pushed them in front of Lu Qingshan and Zang Xiaojian. "This is what we agreed upon at the time. This is the reward I have to pay you two as a thank you for your help."
Lu Qingshan did not accept the spirit stone immediately, but took out the white jade bottle containing the Dragon Spirit Liquid and said, "This Dragon Spirit Liquid was obtained by the three of us together. We should have divided it equally, but this spiritual liquid is of great use to me. I don't really need the spirit stone for the time being. I want to exchange it for an equal amount of Dragon Spirit Liquid. Master Mo, can you give it up?"
Mo Yan pushed the spirit stone in front of Lu Qingshan again, "I am already very grateful to you two Daoists for helping me go to the Dragon Pond. How can I have the face to share the spoils with you? This Dragon Transformation Spirit Liquid should belong to you two. You and Daoist Zang can split it equally. Don't worry about me."
"The situation here is urgent, so excuse me for leaving now." Mo Yan said anxiously. Before Lu Qingshan could react, strange fire enveloped his body and he fled into the distance like a meteor.
Master Mo is really generous.
Seeing Mo Yan just leaving behind a pile of spirit stones and disappearing, Lu Qingshan said inwardly.
"Then we split it equally?"
Zang Xiaojian waved his hand and said righteously: "Since you said this spiritual liquid is useful to you, just keep it. Why are you being polite to me?"
"Lu Qingshan, do you think they can win this battle?" Zang Xiaojian blinked and asked curiously.
Lu Qingshan really needed the Dragon Spirit Fluid, so he didn't bother to be polite with Zang Xiaojian. He put away the white jade bottle, shook his head at Zang Xiaojian, and sighed, "It's a losing game."
"Hmm?" Zang Xiaojian was a little surprised by Lu Qingshan's confidence. "Why are you so sure that they ca n't win? They have been preparing for so long, they should have some confidence, right?"
"That's true, but they really can't win," Lu Qingshan said with certainty.
As for the reason, it is also very simple.
According to the course of history, in March, Xue Zhuyong would hold a three-foot sword and fight against the Dragon Demon King.
He didn't know the reason why Xue Zhuyong took action, but he knew that if the Dragon Slaying Sword had been successful in this battle, the Dragon Demon King should have died at this time, and how could he fight Xue Zhuyong again two months later?
Zang Xiaojian frowned and said, "Is there any way we can help them? The Jiao Clan is so cruel to mortals. If Master Mo and his men are defeated, won't the human race on Jiaolong Island never be able to recover?"
"Lu Qingshan, you have a lot of ideas, so there must be a way, right?" Zang Xiaojian cast an expectant look at Lu Qingshan.
Lu Qingshan frowned slightly.
His inner wish was actually the same as Zang Xiaojian's. The Jiao clan was so brutal, so he naturally hoped that the Dragon Slaying Sword could successfully slay the dragon and eliminate this scourge for the human race.
However, the Dragon Demon King is a fourth-grade demon beast. How can a foundation-building cultivator like him participate in a confrontation of this level and change anything?
If you want to help, you must have the help of a strong person, at least someone at the level of Yuanying Zhenjun, to help the Dragon Slaying Sword reverse the situation.
etc?
In a flash, a thought flashed through Lu Qingshan's mind.
Zang Xiaojian had been staring at Lu Qingshan's face and immediately noticed the change in his expression. He asked excitedly, "Lu Qingshan, have you come up with a solution?"
Lu Qingshan hesitated a little, "Perhaps, there is indeed someone on Jiaolong Island who can help the Dragon Slayer to deal with the Jiaolong Demon King."
"Who is it?"
"The head of the Mo family...Xue Zhuyong."
Xue Zhuyong was able to defeat the Dragon Demon King on his own. Even though he died in the end, it still showed that Xue Zhuyong's fighting power was almost on par with that of the Dragon Demon King.
Under this premise, if Xue Zhuyong could join forces with the Dragon Slaying Sword, the result would definitely be much happier.
"That's right!" Zang Xiaojian also reacted and said excitedly: "The Mo family was overthrown by the Jiao clan, so he must have a blood feud with the Jiao clan. Now that there is a chance for revenge, he will definitely be willing to take action."
