Chapter 222: Struggle, Battle of Dragon Blood
Hahaha, we've entered the Wild Dragon Snake's cave heaven.
Finally we've entered the Wild Dragon Snake's cave heaven, huh? Over there?
Zhuge Ruolan and Feng Feifei entered the Wild Dragon Snake's cave heaven; having just adapted to the environment, the two cautiously prepared to act, heading to find the Wild Dragon Snake's corpse so they could quickly begin harvesting. Meanwhile, in the sky on the other side, another opening appeared, that opening expanded, streams of aura seeped in, and then the opening expanded further.
Pa-da.
The opening expanded, and an opening big enough for one person to enter appeared. This opening continued to gradually expand until it could fit two people, at which point it stopped expanding, yet no one was seen entering the Wild Dragon Snake's cave heaven.
After the faint blood aura dissipated, following the appearance of that opening, within half an hour no one was seen entering; Zhuge Ruolan and Feng Feifei stared at the opening, ready to act at any moment, not allowing anyone else to enter this place with them—the Wild Dragon Snake's corpse was theirs.
All the treasures in the Wild Dragon Snake's cave heaven belonged to the two of them; at the very least, they had to finish scavenging before allowing others to enter. The two exchanged a glance but dared not act, because besides this opening, another gap appeared in another direction of the Wild Dragon Snake's cave heaven, and a figure slowly descended.
After landing, that figure turned around and stared at Zhuge Ruolan and Feng Feifei.
"Shan Gui, is that you?"
"Demonic beast Shan Gui, I didn't expect you to also find the fissure; you hid it really deep."
Shan Gui's face was suffused with a smile, while his eyes harbored killing intent.
Seeing the two women, its heart sank; it was not the first person to enter this place.
At the same time, Shan Gui noticed another opening in the sky; its appearance signified that the Wild Dragon Snake's cave heaven was becoming unstable, the entire cave heaven had begun to leak, and they had little time left.
The killing intent of the three of them was directed at each other, yet no one descended into that opening.
"Hum."
Waves of sharp aura transmitted; that opening produced a figure, followed immediately by a second figure, then a third.
Figures descended one after another; these people were no ordinary lot, their auras were terrifying.
"Spirit Sword Sect's Ming Jianzi."
"Heavenly Heart Sect's Song Wu and Ge Xuan."
"Also, the Demon-Subduing General and Wushuang Gui."
"Huh? There are also demonic beasts; who are you?"
Shan Gui listed each person's name; the appearance of these people signified that this place had become a battlefield, they had all entered around the same time, and battle was imminent.
The number of people entering the cave heaven was still increasing, including humans, demonic beasts, enemies, and strangers.
Among these people, some did not know each other.
Seeing this, Shan Gui knew they couldn't linger; they had to find the Wild Dragon Snake's corpse quickly, lest others get there first.
Shan Gui gave Zhuge Ruolan a deep glance; the killing intent in his eyes faded, replaced by a smile, after which he sank into the ground.
"Let's go too; this place is not suitable for lingering."
Zhuge Ruolan turned her head and said to Feng Feifei.
"Okay."
Feng Feifei also saw that the situation was off; those who had come down carried a thick killing aura.
Especially the two from the Heavenly Heart Sect, whose killing intent was the strongest, staring at everyone present, eager to kill.
The death of the Heavenly Heart Sect's true successor Zhang Wen filled the two with hostility toward everyone present.
After they left, the people who had descended here all followed suit to seek the Wild Dragon Snake's corpse.
Song Wu frowned: "Junior brother, have you found that blood demon?"
The handsome youth beside him shook his head: "No news, but we can be certain the blood demon definitely entered the cave heaven."
The two saw the altar, and saw the corpse of their senior brother Zhang Wen; his death state was miserable.
This debt absolutely cannot be left unsettled.
The blood demon's methods—he killed their senior brother and even sacrificed him—cannot be tolerated at this time.
They want the Wild Dragon Snake's corpse, and they also want to kill the murderer.
The blood demon must undoubtedly die.
The Demon-Subduing General nodded at the two from the Heavenly Heart Sect, said nothing, and left with Wushuang Gui.
Many were searching for the Wild Dragon Snake's corpse; Spirit Sword Sect's Ming Jianzi was among them, but did not want to waste time.
Thus, the crowd dispersed and began searching for the location of the Wild Dragon Snake's corpse.
The cave heaven is vast; finding the Wild Dragon Snake's corpse still requires spending some time.
Everyone had their own methods.
Half a day later.
Before the mountain peak where the Wild Dragon Snake lay, the peak whose aura had been concealed was found by someone.
Two figures slowly approached.
"Brother Bi, this place is very strange; this mountain peak has a problem."
The figure staring at the crocodile's head revealed a ferocious appearance.
Its huge mouth, a row of fangs, made people tremble with fear.
Beside him, Brother Bi had a human body and a snake head; that snake head was emerald green, and its eyes were also green.
Layers of scales arranged gave a sense of danger; being stared at by him was tantamount to being stared at by a venomous snake.
"Brother Croc, I sensed the aura of the Wild Dragon Snake."
Taking a deep breath, the snake head stared fixedly at the mountain peak before it.
"It's the taste of fresh blood, the Wild Dragon Snake's fresh blood—what a rich flavor, what a delicious taste."
He licked his lips, that snake tongue flicking in and out.
Terrifying and frightening.
The crocodile beside him also felt a thrill; the feeling of being stared at by him was not pleasant.
"Looks like we've found our target; this mountain, could it not be the one?"
The Azure Water Mystic Snake stared at the mountain peak, nodded slightly, but did not make a move.
In the sky, a person stared at them.
The sword-carrying youth descended slowly.
The Deepwater Giant Crocodile clenched its fist, shaking its ferocious head.
"Ming Jianzi of the Spirit Sword Sect, how dare you intercept us? Aren't you afraid we two brothers will eat you?"
Its huge mouth opened, spewing a foul stench.
Ming Jianzi didn't even glance at them, but fixed his gaze on that mountain peak.
The sword on his back trembled, emitting a resonant sword hum.
By his side, two figures appeared.
Song Wu of the Heavenly Heart Sect and another also arrived.
On the other side of the peak, two figures descended—Zhuge Ruolan and Feng Feifei stared at the mountain before them, a flash of greed crossing their faces.
The two women exchanged a glance and exclaimed excitedly, "The Wild Dragon Snake's corpse—this whole mountain belongs to us."
"There's no mistake—it's that aura, the smell of fresh blood."
Zhuge Ruolan frowned: "The smell of fresh blood? Don't you find that strange?"
"The Wild Dragon Snake's cave heaven has been hidden for so long; even if the Wild Dragon Snake were stronger, it wouldn't constantly reek of fresh blood, and moreover, this blood aura is very strong, as if……"
Feng Feifei's heart skipped a beat as a possibility occurred to her, her eyes widening.
"You mean someone got here before us and went inside?"
Zhuge Ruolan nodded: "That's possible. Although we arrived before them, you know the commotion of the Wild Dragon Snake's cave heaven is huge—it's not impossible someone beat us here."
"If that's the case, we need to enter sooner, or else……"
Feng Feifei's face darkened; after all she's done and sacrificed, she couldn't let it come to nothing.
"Hmph, whoever dares to steal my treasure will die."
When a woman gets ruthless, there's nothing a man can do about it.
