The SSSSSSSS-level Mad Dragon is released from prison!

Chun Ya Xuan.

The night was deep and all was quiet.

The hall was brightly lit, but the three figures stood like three lonely sculptures, motionless all night.

Xiao Ruoye stood on the second-floor terrace, her gaze fixed on the direction of the Dragon Guard headquarters.

The towering golden dragon shadow had long since vanished, but the worry and anxiety in her eyes only grew stronger.

Her hands, gripping the railing, had knuckles that had lost all color from the force of her grip.

Shen Suxin sat on the sofa, holding her small medicine basket in her arms, her head down, without saying a word.

The air around her was filled with a suffocating sadness.

Junyao paced anxiously back and forth in the hall, like a small animal that had lost its master.

Her purplish-gold eyes had lost their former luster, replaced only by fear and unease.

"No... Master is so powerful, he'll definitely be alright..."

She repeated the sentence over and over again, as if trying to convince herself, or as if she were praying.

But the emptiness that came from the depths of his soul, as if it had been forcibly torn apart, became clearer and clearer.

Time passed, second by second.

Every second felt like a dull knife, repeatedly cutting into the hearts of the three women.

……

I don't know how much time passed.

The rotting silt, mixed with the stench of rust, filled my nostrils.

Jiang Chen's consciousness was forcibly pulled back from the endless darkness by this stench.

He tried to move his fingertips.

A piercing pain instantly spread throughout my limbs and bones.

He slowly opened his eyes.

Before me lay pitch-black, sticky sewage.

This is... a sewer?

He struggled to look inward at his own body.

The dantian (lower abdomen) and dantian (lower abdomen) were completely silent.

The golden elixir that had just been formed and had once given him unparalleled power had turned into dust, scattered throughout his broken meridians.

In his sea of ​​consciousness, the remnant soul of that majestic true dragon was so dim that it was almost invisible, with only a faint golden light remaining, instinctively protecting his nearly stopped heartbeat.

Even more terrifying were those black incantations that slay immortals.

They were like a net, covering every corner of his body, frantically devouring his last bit of life.

Jiang Chen could clearly feel his life force draining away at an alarming rate.

Twenty-seven days.

This is the time he has left.

If no solution is found in twenty-seven days, his broken body will be completely devoured by the curse and turned into a pool of pus and blood.

Despair, like cold, dirty water, overwhelmed him.

Just as his will was about to crumble once again.

A cold, emotionless voice suddenly rang in his mind.

"If it weren't for that 'twenty-year no-kill' agreement with your mother, Luo Qingluan, do you think you would have survived to this day?"

It was the messenger from Tianji Island, Shadow Demon.

That was the last thing he heard before he used Blood Shadow Escape and his consciousness faded.

Twenty years?

An agreement?

Mother... Luo Qingluan?

Fragmented words slowly pieced together a cruel truth in Jiang Chen's chaotic mind.

Twenty years ago, in order to protect him, his mother not only used divine blood as a curse to seal the dragon vein of the capital.

She also made a deal with Tianji Island.

A promise she made in exchange for her freedom, even her life, to ensure her twenty years of peaceful growth!

And now...

That man called Shadow Demon would appear at the moment when his power reached its peak and mercilessly annihilate him!

"puff--"

Jiang Chen suddenly opened his mouth, and what came out was not sewage, but a mouthful of black blood mixed with pieces of internal organs.

Two streams of scalding blood and tears slid down from his dull, dark golden vertical pupils, mingling with the filthy sewage.

It turned out to be the case.

It turns out that in these past twenty years, I was able to grow up like an ordinary person, go to prison, get out of prison, and take revenge...

All of this was bought with her mother's blood, her tears, and her freedom!

He himself, having just gained a little bit of power, thought he could defy fate and became so arrogant that he wanted to raze the Dragon Guard headquarters to the ground.

As a result, I almost let down everything my mother had risked her life for!

An indescribable grief and remorse erupted in his chest like a volcano.

"I...can't die..."

"I absolutely cannot die!"

He let out a low, beast-like growl.

My master is still waiting for me in the Prison Realm!

Mother is still suffering on Tianji Island!

Tianji Island... I haven't pacified it yet!

This intense, soul-deep obsession, like a match, rekindled the dying embers of his life.

He must live!

We must survive at all costs!

Jiang Chen clenched his teeth, and blood seeped from his gums.

He used all his strength to lift his right hand, which was still relatively intact, and with his fingers spread, he gripped the slippery wall of the sewer.

The fingernail instantly curled up, leaving a bloody mess.

But he seemed not to feel any pain.

Using that hand as a fulcrum, he dragged his broken body, now unrecognizable, little by little, crawling laboriously toward the direction from which the light on the ground seemed to come from, just as he remembered.

One inch.

Another inch.

A long, shocking trail of blood was left in the sewage.

……

Chun Ya Xuan.

The sky was already beginning to lighten.

Xiao Ruoye's eyes were bloodshot.

Shen Suxin's face was deathly pale.

Junyao stopped pacing and curled up on the steps by the door, hugging her knees, like a kitten abandoned by the whole world.

Sudden.

Outside the gate, a dull thud came from the sound of something heavy falling to the ground.

The sound wasn't loud, but it was exceptionally clear in the deathly silence of dawn.

The three women froze simultaneously.

Jun Yao suddenly raised her head, and an unbelievable light burst forth from her dim purple-gold eyes.

That familiar aura, the kind she'd give anything to follow...

Although it was as faint as a candle flickering in the wind, it could be extinguished at any moment.

But it was definitely his scent!

"Owner!"

Junyao let out a scream that sounded like she was crying, and rushed out of the door like a madwoman.
