Ch. 4 ~ A Mysterious Monster
"If there is a treasure here, then I should get it personally," Yuan Han smiled then with a quick breeze, passing through the various tree trunks until the end was at the peak.
At the peak, Yuan Han could see the other body parts of the Dragon. It was long and full of trees.
Although it was completely covered with trees, Yuan Han could see that it was really part of the Dragon's body.
This dragon was truly huge, and it must have been once that he was one of the best in the Little Dragon Domain. Perhaps he can also rival the Dragon King!
But Yuan Han felt that it was almost impossible, because from what he read from the book, the Dragon Monarch had now lived for nearly 50,000 years.
He was at the stage named — Nascent Soul —, Yuan Han had seen these words, it was in the mysterious book, it was, and many of them stopped at Nascent Soul before changing hands.
He had no idea what was really happening to them, but it was clear, that there was a chance of them dying before the book changed hands.
The biggest one is the Deva Realm.
Yuan Han knew, that the Deva Realm meant being the realm of the Gods, meaning that stage was the stage where one became a God!
As it seemed that the Stages mentioned in this Book seemed to be unsequential, Yuan Han could not tell what the next Stages of the Dao Foundation were.
All he knew was that the Dao Foundation was meaningless by the people who held the Book.
The holder of this Book must be outside of the Little Dragon Domain, and Yuan Han had to return it without using it in the slightest.
He does not want to be considered a thief.
Stopping somewhere, Yuan Han saw that there were 3 people standing staring into the Cave, and the three of them were Women.
The two amongst him were only Qi Condensation Level 7 Peak-stage. And the highest was the Qi Condensation Level 11 Early-stage.
And as we know, that the strongest Disciple is Gu Lintian.
If Yuan Han was right, then the other two were Hua Qi and Hua Yun, the servants from the Gu Clan.
***
"Is this really okay?" Hua Qin asked her brother and Gu Lintian.
Hua Yun simply smiled and looked at Gu Lintian. It was not him who knew about it, but it should be Gu Lintian.
Gu Lintian was aware of that and nodded at his youngest servant. "It shouldn't matter with our strength,
If there is an Elemental Gathering later, we can work together to escape," Gu Lintian said.
Hua Yun and Hua Qin then continued walking through the Cave, and finally arrived at a room.
It was a large room, nothing but stone.
Even though it was dark, they could feel that there was something around here. "Is there a monster?" Gu Lintian thought a little.
Trk!
The sound made Gu Lintian turn his head back, he was surprised because behind there were no more servants. "Yuna? Qin's? Where're you guys?"
Gu Lintian scrunched up. He realized that something was wrong here.
Gu Lintian wanted to walk, yet was immediately tripped by something—it was a piece of Hua Yun's head, making Gu Lintian take a breath.
His heart rate feels faster, making the environment more tense and vocal.
As his eyes stared at the ceiling, it could be seen that there were two large eyeballs, hovering staring at his—what was a dragon?
***
Kyaaaa!
Yuan Han who was lying on the tree while eating the Apples he prepared in his bag, stood up as a female voice sounded.
Before long, a woman came out from there, and it was Gu Lintian, who was the,
Surprisingly, there were no two servants accompanying him earlier. "Did something happen?" Yuan Han slightly guessed.
"But, I will return later," Yuan Han smiled faintly. He started to guess what would happen next.
(Author Note's: The plan is to trap Han'er, but it's not T_T)
***
Gu Lintian returned, and the rest of the group was worried about him because when his circumstances returned, he sobbed, apologizing.
Strange thing they also saw, that the two maids who were usually by Miss's side suddenly disappeared and no one saw her existence anymore.
They have tried to ask, but remain unanswered.
And now, Miss Gu sat down while hugging her feet. His hands trembled with his body, as if he had seen something terrible.
"Young Miss Gu, don't be like this. Tell us, what you saw there,"
Gu Lintian glanced towards the voice, his empty eyes with darkness making the person who spoke suddenly goosebumps.
Whatisthis?
"What............ You will believe?"
The man who had voiced nodded. It was Fu Lan, a man who had long liked Gu Lintian.
With this incident, Gu Lintian's confidence in Fu Lan would definitely increase, and the possibility that Gu Lintian would like her would also increase—ini's golden opportunity for Fu Lan!
"In a Cave, there was a Monster with Elemental Gathering practices,"
!!!!
People hold their breath. They stared in disbelief towards Gu Lintian,
But something made them curious, why couldn't the other two survive?
Supposedly with their strength then put together, they should be able to come out alive.
Seeing that confusion, Gu Lintian said. "I didn't know back then that my friends were gone. It was very fast and invisible, though,
The room was also dark, so I couldn't see anything clearly. There's only two eyeballs floating around,"
Everyone nodded. It's a little horrible. Even so, they are a little excited.
Elemental Gathering had high Points. And it can be divided.
If they get the monster corpses, they get some Points and the smallest is 100 Points!
This made them excited and immediately gathered all the disciples, just in case that there was a possibility of the Monster being more than expected.
***
Tomorrow, over 30 disciples with an average Qi Condensation Level 5 to Level 8 arrived at the Goa.
They looked spirited, and had their own weapons in their arms.
A bright smile bloomed as the person leading the—Gu Lin Tian cheered to enter, and simultaneously they went inside.
'Yun, Qin, Servant—no, my dear sister, I will take your revenge and bury you in the right place,'
***
Far away from there, not even 2 li from there, Yuan Han who was meditating, opened his eyes and revealed his faint smile.
"Have they acted? Then, me too,"
