Chapter 229: Blood Demon Meets Mountain Ghost, Dragon Egg Changes Hands

"You're not going to go after them to kill?"

Jing Yuheng shook his head: "The Wild Dragon Snake egg is certainly important, but it also requires strength to take; I'd better not intervene— that's not something I can intervene in."

Ming Jianzi smiled, but inwardly he did not believe her words— few could endure the Wild Dragon Snake egg.

She didn't go, so she must have other thoughts.

Either she doesn't want to get involved now and become the one who sticks her neck out, or she's guarding against something.

There's also another reason: she might have discovered something else; this woman differs from those people, she observes very carefully; Ming Jianzi stayed behind also wanting to learn something, not wanting to be led around blindly.

The Mountain Ghost stole the Wild Dragon Snake egg; his fate will surely be grim.

The Wild Dragon Snake Cave Heaven has been sealed; those exits have already healed.

They want to get out, so they must… break the cave heaven, but that's not easy; given the state of the Wild Dragon Snake Cave Heaven, it can at least hold out for a long time still, and without sufficient time to prepare, breaking the cave heaven and leaving this place is impossible.

As long as he remains in the Wild Dragon Snake Cave Heaven, he can be found; the cave heaven is far, far smaller than the outside.

"What else have you discovered?"

Jing Yuheng turned in surprise; he hadn't expected Ming Jianzi to ask that.

"I haven't discovered anything; I just wanted to find some Wild Dragon Snake flesh to comfort myself."

Having come this far, how could we return empty-handed?

Ming Jianzi didn't believe her nonsense; this woman must have discovered something and is deliberately staying silent.

"Some things, you can't bear alone."

"You've also seen the danger of the Wild Dragon Snake Cave Heaven; anyone here is being led by some force; the Wild Dragon Snake corpse is gone, its flesh and bones dug up, nothing left; that person is clever, knowing to erase traces to keep us from finding him."

"The appearance of the Wild Dragon Snake egg successfully drew others' attention, thereby causing them to forget that person's existence."

Who exactly is that person? What is his purpose? Is he hiding?

He took the entire Wild Dragon Snake corpse's flesh and bones, then gave him time to cultivate— isn't that?

Thinking of this, Ming Jianzi couldn't help but feel worried and anxious.

Jing Yuheng was somewhat surprised; indeed, those who can enter this place are not ordinary people.

"I suspect that all of this is someone else's scheme."

"Our actions, everyone's thoughts, are all being calculated."

"The appearance of the Wild Dragon Snake egg has made me more certain that the opening of this cave heaven is very likely."

That egg needs nourishment; it needs fresh blood.

And they are very likely the egg's rations.

But, everything happened unexpectedly.

Someone entered early, hollowed out the Wild Dragon Snake corpse, causing the egg to be exposed prematurely, thus…

The Wild Dragon Snake's scheme, in the end, benefited others.

The Wild Dragon Snake failed; then, that person— what does he want to do?

And the Blood Demon— what exactly is he scheming?

Jing Yuheng said worriedly: "If we continue like this, it's very likely that in the end everyone will die here."

Ming Jianzi fell silent; he knew Jing Yuheng was not speaking alarmist nonsense.

The things here are not worth pondering over.

Upon a little reflection, many things gradually become clear.

"You want to… look for his traces?"

Jing Yuheng nodded: "Rather than being manipulated by others, we should look for clues to break the situation."

"The Wild Dragon Snake corpse is no longer important; the Wild Dragon Snake egg may ultimately not be obtained by us."

"Our lives are also on someone else's menu."

"Ming Jianzi Dao friend, can you leave the cave heaven?"

Ming Jianzi shook his head: "Cannot."

"The entrance here was not opened by me, but by the Blood Demon; another few openings, one was opened by Zhuge Ruolan and them, and another was opened by the Mountain Ghost."

Jing Yuheng also said: "There's still one more."

"You mean?"

Ming Jianzi thought of something and looked outward.

His thoughts were rapidly calculating.

He drifted to that place, the outside that gave him an eerie feeling.

"Ming Jianzi Dao friend, you've figured it out, right?"

"Jing Yuheng Dao friend, you're impressive."

The two reached cooperation.

At this time, we cannot continue internal strife.

Just staying alive is a problem.

Inside, everything is scheming and danger.

Every step is calculated by others.

The Wild Dragon Snake Cave Heaven, from the start, was a trap.

Waiting for them to jump in, without incident, they all jumped in.

Wanting to leave, but it's not that easy.

On the other side.

The Mountain Ghost obtained the Wild Dragon Snake egg, quickly left, not daring to linger even a moment.

He arrived beneath the cave entrance of this place, slowly drifted out, intending to exit through that opening, then conceal himself, devour the Wild Dragon Snake egg, and boost his bloodline.

Where is the cave opening?

It disappeared. When did it disappear? Who did it?

That cave opening has completely disappeared.

The fissure is also gone.

All the several cave openings around have vanished.

At this moment, Shan Gui's expression changed; his plan had a leak.

At the final step, an accident occurred.

Damn it, who exactly is it?

Damn it, I've been schemed against; the Wild Dragon Snake egg is in my hand, and those people won't let me go.

I want to leave this place; I need to open a cave opening from the inside, which would be easier, but the disturbance will definitely be huge.

Once I start acting, those people will surely sense it, and then...

Thinking of those people, Shan Gui's scalp went numb.

He was completely not okay.

The Wild Dragon Snake egg in his storage bag became a hot potato.

I need to hide; I can't let them find me.

Buzz.

The Wild Dragon Snake egg trembled; that fluctuation passed through the storage bag and reverberated throughout the cave heaven.

It cannot be blocked, nor can it be hidden.

Damn it.

Shan Gui's expression changed; having left the Wild Dragon Snake egg from the Wild Dragon Snake's corpse, he could no longer hide.

That fluctuation, that aura, was too obvious.

They're coming after me, they're coming after me.

Shan Gui hurriedly went underground.

He fled at high speed toward the distance.

After running for an unknown amount of time, he entered a mountain cave.

His expression changed.

The mountain cave was rich with blood qi; after he entered, the blood qi wrapped around him.

What is this?

Blood Demon, Blood Demon Altar, you actually hid here.

Damn it, you've been waiting for me here.

Shan Gui struggled free of the blood qi; the Blood Demon's form gradually condensed.

Appearing before Shan Gui, his hand pressed onto Shan Gui's head.

Shan Gui, unable to resist, watched helplessly as that hand drew out his blood qi.

Countless blood surged like a bursting dam, unstoppable.

Hahaha, truly 'searching high and low, effortless gain'—Shan Gui, Shan Gui, I never expected you to come to me yourself; I've been waiting for you a long time.

All your cultivation belongs to me.

No!

Shan Gui wanted to resist, but couldn't.

The Blood Demon Altar emitted red light, enveloping him, suppressing him.

His blood was completely drained; Shan Gui was left with only a skeleton.

His storage bag also ended up in the Blood Demon's hands.

The Wild Dragon Snake egg was indeed inside the storage bag.

Wild Dragon Snake egg, you ended up in my hands after all.

I.

Buzz.

The Wild Dragon Snake egg trembled; a mysterious fluctuation spread, and instantly the entire cave heaven was shaking.

The Blood Demon's expression changed.

Damn it, this egg actually...

He was exposed.

Boom—

The earth trembled.

Attacks came one after another, bombarding.

The mountain cave began to collapse.
