Chapter 218

A somewhat neutral voice emerged from the mouth of the Red Dragon, interrupting the two's conversation: "Ba Shao? You actually managed to find your way here?"

Ba Shao stepped forward to pay his respects: "Ba Shao greets the Wuzun."

The Red Dragon hummed, his gaze shifting to lock onto Hou Jian: "On you, I sense a familiar aura."

Ba Shao hurriedly introduced: "Reporting to the Wuzun, this is the new Wuzun selected by the Yu Clan."

"The new Wuzun?"

"Yes."

Afterwards, Ba Shao explained the current predicament of the Ice Domain.

"With Xu Yang and I missing, the Yu Clan has no head, so selecting a new Wuzun is the proper course. However..."

Pausing briefly, the Red Dragon's voice turned cold: "Why is this new Wuzun not of pure body?!"

Ba Shao's face stiffened, a wave of embarrassment rising in his heart.

The Wuzun is the supreme leader of the Yu Clan, holding a status and position beyond compare; not only must the role be held by a woman, but she must also be a pure virgin.

Yet Hou Jian had clearly lost her virginity to Jiang Sishui, which violated the Yu Clan's rules.

Jiang Sishui did not let Ba Shao struggle, stepping forward to say: "Because after Hou Jian, she will no longer be the Wuzun, but my wife."

"Your wife?"

The Red Dragon leaned his head over, a single head larger than Jiang Sishui's entire body; his massive dragon eyes looked down upon him, his tone unfriendly: "Who are you? You are not of my Yu Clan? On what grounds do you marry her?"

Jiang Sishui knew the Red Dragon had an impatient temper and did not deliberately keep her in suspense; after all, having rescued the other party, their future interactions would not be few.

Establishing a good relationship was therefore very necessary.

This was a Demigod; who knew when he might need to ask the other party for help.

So Jiang Sishui came straight to the point: "On the grounds that I can rescue both of you from this predicament."

"Hm? What did you say?!"

As expected, hearing Jiang Sishui's reply, the Red Dragon, who had long grown tired of this life of darkness, lost her composure on the spot.

Her dragon body twisted, straining the chains until they clanged loudly; under the surge of her emotions, she inadvertently exhaled a mouthful of dragon breath.

A sudden gale erupted within the stone chamber, blowing Wu Zhou and Ba Shao off their feet, forcing them to retreat repeatedly...

Hou Jian remained motionless.

A protective light shield opened around Jiang Sishui's body, blocking that mouthful of dragon breath from entering.

"Eh? There is some skill here!"

The Red Dragon quickly reined in her aura, while simultaneously emitting a sound of surprise from her mouth.

This young man, merely a mere Grand Master, actually left her unable to see through him.

The Red Dragon was first filled with shock and doubt, then quickly turned to joy.

The more mysterious Jiang Sishui was, the more powerful he was; the less likely he was to be boasting, which meant...

"Can you truly help us escape?" The Red Dragon's twin pupils stared fixedly at Jiang Sishui, her voice trembling slightly, with an excitement she could not conceal in her tone.

Jiang Sishui nodded: "Ninety percent certainty."

At this moment, the Green Dragon, who had been silent all along, spoke: "These chains are forged from divine iron, unbreakable. Hidden within is also evil fire; one slight mistake, and you will be injured by the evil fire instead. Are you sure you can do it?"

Unlike the former Wuzun, Xu Yang was upright and kind; even in such a situation, he did not forget to remind Jiang Sishui to act according to his ability.

Upon hearing this, the Red Dragon immediately became displeased: "Why do you talk so much nonsense? If it works or not, let him try and we will know."

Without a moment's hesitation, Jiang Sishui said: "Divine iron chains, I cannot break."

"Hm?" The Red Dragon suddenly turned her head to look, killing intent flaring in her eyes: "Are you playing with us?!"

Jiang Sishui shook his head, retorting: "You two used the 'Transformation Technique' to become divine dragons; your dragon bodies are massive, which is why you are bound by the chains. If you two simply transform back into human form, can you not easily escape?"

The Red Dragon let out a cold snort: "If we could do that, would we need you to remind us?"

The Green Dragon, however, had a good temper and explained: "It won't work. A curse has been placed upon us, freezing us forever in this form, unable to return to human shape."

"Is this the Green Dragon Commander's doing?"

"Oh? You know him too?"

Jiang Sishui nodded slightly, then said: "What if the curse is lifted?"

"The curse is lifted?"

The Green Dragon and the Red Dragon exchanged a glance, both unable to believe it: "The Green Dragon Commander's curse, we are powerless against; could you possibly succeed?"

Jiang Sishui offered no explanation; he raised a finger and shot forth a beam of Bai Guang, covering the Green Dragon.

242 Xu Yang's Generosity, The Transformation Technique Acquired

The Green Dragon Commander is unfathomable, but undoubtedly a Demigod without question.

Jiang Sishui is merely a Grand Master, a huge gap separating him from the other party; under normal circumstances, he naturally lacks the ability to break the curse the other placed upon the Twin Dragons.

But "a blind cat stumbling upon a dead mouse," he cannot be stopped by his level-ignoring "Purification Technique"!

The "Purification Technique" can remove all negative states; the Green Dragon Commander's curse happens to be countered by it.

Precisely for this reason, Jiang Sishui dared to claim he could save the Twin Dragons.

Under the breathless gaze of everyone, the Bai Guang shot from Jiang Sishui's fingertip enveloped the Green Dragon for two breaths.

Amidst a high-pitched dragon roar, the Green Dragon's massive dragon body began to shrink, shrinking again...

With a flash of light, the Green Dragon vanished from the spot; a tall, muscular, imposing man fell from mid-air.

The instant his feet touched the ground, the entire mountain seemed to tremble because of it.

The atmosphere at the scene fell silent for a moment.

Suddenly, a woman's cry of shock rang out: "Xu Yang! Xu Yang! You are out, Xu Yang! You are really out!"

Wu Zhou half-ran to Xu Yang's side, grabbing his arm, his body shaking, his excitement overflowing.

Xu Yang looked at his own hands and feet, his eyes somewhat dazed.

Ten years apart, once again regaining human form, once again gaining freedom, a strange feeling of being reborn rose spontaneously from the depths of his heart.

Looking at the Wu Zhou before him, Xu Yang's face showed a gentle smile: "I'm free! Wu Zhou, my sister, I'm free! The curse has been lifted. Even if that Azure Dragon Token Lord comes again, I fear him not in the slightest."

Others did not know how strong the Azure Dragon Token Lord was, but Xu Yang knew very well.

The Azure Dragon Token Lord's strength was only on par with his own. Back then, had he and the Wu Zun not both been gravely wounded, the other party could never have seized such an easy advantage.

Now that his strength had returned to its peak, he did not fear the Azure Dragon Token Lord coming to find him — he only feared the other party would not come!

On the other side, Jiang Sishui's heart stirred: "Sister? Wu Zhou is Xu Yang's sister? A lover-sister? Or a blood-sister?"

His thoughts began to turn rapidly.

As for Wu Zhou, he did feel some fondness for her in his heart.

After all, Wu Zhou really was quite pretty.

But this fondness, to put it plainly, was merely an appreciation of a beautiful thing, with no desire to possess.

Unlike his feelings for Huang Rong, the Flower Fairy, and others — that was a "must have, cannot do without" kind of fondness.

Therefore, he had never intended to meddle between the two of them, or to destroy her relationship with Xu Yang.

Besides, he did not have the ability to do so right now.

Try a soft approach?

According to the original drama's plot, Wu Zhou had waited faithfully for Xu Yang for ten years, never abandoning him. Even if Xu Yang, after escaping his imprisonment, could never regain human form, she was still willing to stay by his side for life.

Such a devoted woman — what right did he have to make her shift her affections to someone else?

Try a hard approach?

To forcibly take the woman of a demigod — wouldn't that be asking for trouble?

Unless he refused to save the Twin Dragons, overturning every plan he had made.

But clearly, Jiang Sishui did not yet want to expend that much effort to forcibly take a woman who held fast to her love and remained steadfast and unwavering.

But now, he discovered the situation seemed different from the plot.

Between Wu Zhou and Xu Yang, it appeared to be only a pure brother-sister relationship.

If that was the case... then he would not hold back.

Jiang Sishui's thoughts began to stir actively.

Just as his mind was wandering into wild fancies, the Red Dragon's impatient voice came through: "It worked! It really worked! Kid... no, little brother, it's my turn now!"

The Red Dragon was so excited that her dragon body danced about, and her tone instantly softened.

Without a word of hesitation, Jiang Sishui cast another "Purification Art" upon the Red Dragon.

The familiar scene repeated itself — the Red Dragon shrank, transforming into a short-haired woman with a cold, composed bearing.

Tall!

The first impression she gave Jiang Sishui was — tall!
