Chapter 447: Qing Lin

"Qing Lin!" Xiao Yan looked at the woman on the mountain peak. Although she wore a ghost-god mask and her face could not be seen, in this world, only Qing Lin possessed the Jade-Green Snake Flower Pupils and could have intervened to save Xiao Yan.

Qing Lin had also come to these ruins to search for treasure. It was just that the ruins had previously been covered by a great fire, making it impossible to enter. After the fire receded, she entered the ruins, but most of the items had already been taken or incinerated; she had only managed to find a snow-white Pill Beast.

Qing Lin had originally intended to leave directly, but before departing, she heard a dragon roar that sounded somewhat familiar to her, which prompted her to come and investigate.

However, upon seeing that it was merely two giant dragons fighting, she felt a sense of disappointment in her heart, as she had not seen the person she had been longing for.

But when she saw the golden giant dragon get injured, Qing Lin felt an instinctive heartache, which was why she had inexplicably intervened. Yet, when she heard the golden giant dragon call her name, Qing Lin's heart trembled violently, and a surge of various emotions welled up within her.

"Young Master!" Although the golden giant dragon had not yet manifested into human form, that single mention of "Qing Lin" was enough, for since leaving the Tagor Desert, no one had called her by that name again.

The black flame giant dragon saw that the woman who had suddenly appeared actually knew Xiao Yan, and immediately felt that something was amiss. Although his perception told him that this woman's strength was not very high, the three little green dots in her eyes were extremely troublesome and could steal a person's soul.

If he continued to be influenced like this, he would sooner or later be defeated by Xiao Yan. Therefore, eliminating this strange woman was now his primary goal.

The black flame giant dragon flicked its tail and its figure charged violently toward Qing Lin, preparing to finish her off first.

Xiao Yan saw the black flame giant dragon attacking Qing Lin and knew that it wanted to kill her first. Thus, he flicked his tail and his figure charged toward the black flame giant dragon, preparing to stop it.

However, Xiao Yan was still a step too slow. The black flame giant dragon's massive claw had already reached toward Qing Lin; a single light grab would be enough to crush her to pieces.

Qing Lin looked at the incoming giant dragon claw, and the three green dots in her eyes suddenly emitted a brilliant radiance. These rays of light gradually converged, transforming into a giant green python.

It hovered above Qing Lin's head, opened its lantern-like pupils, and stared at the black flame giant dragon. Immediately, two brilliant green beams of light shot from its pupils and illuminated the black flame giant dragon's head.

The black flame giant dragon was blinded by the brilliant green light and once again felt dizzy. This sensation of vertigo made him go somewhat mad, and he shook his massive head incessantly, trying to regain his clarity.

"Young Master, hurry and strike! Qing Lin can only control him temporarily." After summoning the green giant python, Qing Lin was clearly exhausted, and she barely had the strength left to speak.

Xiao Yan naturally knew that this opportunity could not be missed. He flashed to the side of the black flame giant dragon, opened his blood-red maw, and bit toward its neck, beginning to absorb the energy within its body.

"Awoo!" The black flame giant dragon felt intense pain and began to struggle with all its might again. However, the light shooting from the green giant python's eyes became even more intense, causing the magnitude of his struggle to diminish once more.

Medusa and Zi Yan saw the black flame giant dragon struggling incessantly and knew they could not let him break free. They immediately began to help Xiao Yan suppress the black flame giant dragon, forcing it to stop struggling.

With the four of them working together, the black flame giant dragon's struggle became weaker and weaker, until finally, it stopped struggling altogether, for it knew that continuing to struggle was useless.

"Xiao Yan, I'll count this as your win this time. However, I have remembered you. I hope you can survive!" The clone of the Xu Wu Tun Yan glanced at Xiao Yan once more, and then its body began to expand rapidly. "Not good! Quickly, get away!" Xiao Yan saw that the Xu Wu Tun Yan clone intended to self-destruct and shouted in horror. The self-destruction of a Dou Sheng-level expert was terrifying just to think about.

However, Medusa, Zi Yan, and Qing Lin seemed not to hear Xiao Yan's call. After a brief moment of hesitation, they prepared to face death alongside Xiao Yan; when a Dou Sheng expert self-destructs, running is useless.

"Boom!" The black flame giant dragon suddenly exploded. The violent shockwave caused the earth to cave in, forming a terrifying giant wave of fire that swept toward the sky, creating a massive mushroom cloud.

After a moment of silence, the giant mushroom cloud of fire began to expand rapidly, and the terrifying shockwave swept outward, destroying everything in its path.

In the blink of an eye, the entire ruins were reduced to rubble, and the shockwave did not stop, continuing to expand outward and destroying the entire Skeleton Mountain Range.

Xiao Yi Xian and Xiao Xun Er, who were just preparing to enter the ancient ruins, suddenly saw the incoming shockwave of fire. They widened their eyes, then smiled bitterly and closed their eyes to await death; after all, the self-destruction of a Dou Sheng was not something they could resist.

"Sigh!" Just as Xun Er and Xiao Yi Xian thought they were surely going to die, a sigh suddenly came from the sky. Immediately, they saw a giant hand, several thousand zhang in size, rapidly condense in the sky. It slapped downward, the space solidified, and the shockwave was directly dispersed.

After the giant handprint dispersed the shockwave, it began to shrink, then reached toward Xun Er, grabbing her from across the air.

Although Xun Er struggled with all her might, it was of no use, and she was taken into a space passage.

After Xun Er was taken away, Xiao Yi Xian discovered that the previous confinement had vanished. After glancing in the direction where Xun Er had disappeared, she went to find Xiao Yan; after all, Xun Er had only been taken back to the Gu Clan and was in no danger. Now, the most worrying person was Xiao Yan.

However, when Xiao Yi Xian found Xiao Yan, she was stunned by the scene before her. Xiao Yan was left with only half his body; his four limbs were gone, and his chest was a bloody mess, with his bones clearly visible. Fortunately, there was still a heart beating.

Xiao Yi Xian looked at Xiao Yan lying in Medusa's arms, and tears could not stop flowing. Just as she wanted to go up and check on the situation, she was blocked by a black figure.

"Stand back!" Qing Lin saw a stranger intruding and stepped forward to stop her.

Xiao Yi Xian looked at the somewhat unfamiliar woman before her, feeling a wave of confusion; after all, she basically knew all the women around Xiao Yan. But now, she only wanted to see how Xiao Yan was doing. Seeing this woman dare to block her, she shouted angrily: "Move aside!"

Qing Lin saw that Xiao Yi Xian wanted to force her way through, and the three little green dots in her eyes flickered. At this moment, she did not want anyone approaching Xiao Yan.

Xiao Yi Xian saw Qing Lin acting this way and became furious. The mark on her forehead began to flash, and she shouted in a low voice: "I will say this one more time, move aside for me!"

"All of you, stop! Is it not chaotic enough already?" Medusa saw that Xiao Yi Xian and Qing Lin were about to fight, and only then did she raise her eyes to look at Xiao Yi Xian and say: "She once saved Xiao Yan's life. Although I do not recognize her either, I think she should be a friend of Xiao Yan."
