THE RISE OF THE DRAGON.

31. TRAITORS.

“What is it?”

The cold-looking young man pointed to the silver symbol that was in the sky in horror.

After Ui Yong Jiang killed the first young man, he actually suppressed them.

It was even more difficult for them to defend against the attacks that sometimes fell from the sky unexpectedly.

They were always at a loss as to where the attack had come from, only after some time had passed did the young man notice the symbol.

‘So that's how he killed her’

He thought when consciousness appeared to him.

He had been confused about how their friend had died, now that he knew the reason, it was because of that.

Being too engrossed in battle, it was difficult for something else to catch his attention because he knew there was a mistake, and he would end up like his dead friend.

At first, he thought it was some kind of special technique that Ui Yong Jiang used to unleash an attack, instead,

but now he knew it was not due to special techniques, but rather a strange symbol that looked like silver was attacking them.

But what he did not know was how Ui Yong Jiang did it.

‘If he had such a trump card before the battle began, why would he allow himself to be beaten before using it?

From the looks of it, it seems like he can use it almost without a’ limit.

Every brain cell in his head tried to process what was happening, but he still could not understand it.

As the battle lasted for a minute or so, the situation of the two entered an even more dire state.

If they continued to fight, they would most likely die within five minutes.

They must escape.

“There's no way we can beat him, we have to run away and tell the others”

The young man said to his friend.

Even though he said this, he still did not turn around to escape, it seemed like he was waiting for something.

‘I will wait until he is distracted by trying to kill cong lei, then I will stop him’

The young man thought coldly.

He did not care if his friend died, as long as he could escape with his life, then he was satisfied.

They could call him by whatever name they wanted, he did not care, the important thing was to survive.

If you can use your friends to lure enemies who want to kill you, so you can escape, why not?

“Go! I'll hold it”

He looked at Cong lei with eyes that said, ‘I'll try to stop him, so you can escape,

even if it means I will die trying, what matters to me is your survival’

Hearing that, Cong lei looked at his friend with mixed feelings, but he was touched by his actions. Even Ui Yong Jiang who attacked them was touched by his loyalty.

“I will make sure this red imperial monster pays for it. This is my promise to you! He will not leave this trial ground alive!”

Cong lei said before turning around to flee.

He laughed coldly inside as a glint flashed across his eyes.

“Hmph! Do you think you can escape? Anyone I sign off dead will definitely die ”

Ui Yong Jiang let out a cold snort before sending an attack towards the fleeing Cong lei.

Cong lei did not even bother to turn around because he had already placed hope in his friend.

Since his friend said he would block their opponent so he could escape, there was no way he would let the attack get to him.

“Stay here!”

Ui Yong Jiang said as the stone he sent to Cong lei turned into a hand and grabbed it.

‘This is my chance’

The cold-looking young man did not delay, he immediately dashed in the other direction with the fastest speed he could muster.

Cong lei who was captured by Ui Yong Jiang was shocked by what happened, before he could realize anything, his friend had already fled in the other direction.

“Ya song! How could you betray me? ”

He shouted with deep hatred.

When Ya song heard this, he sneered before replying,

“This is for the good of the empire, I am stronger than you, so of course I am the one who must endure.

And even if you run away, you might get killed by something else. But my chances of survival are higher.

And you should know killing a monster like him is a must.

Don't worry, your good deeds won't go unnoticed, I'll make sure the empire finds out, ' he said,

and your family will be celebrated for giving birth to a hero ”

With these words, he disappeared into the forest.

Ui Yong Jiang was as astonished as Cong lei. He had actually not expected his attack to reach Cong lei.

He knew there was no way he could keep the two of them here if they wanted to escape.

Not only that, but he might be able to kill one, but the other would almost certainly escape.

But if one wanted to hold it in so that the others could escape, then there was nothing he could do but watch helplessly as the others fled.

Looking at the desperate Cong lei, she almost felt sorry for him, well, almost pity.

“Do not worry, as long as I find it, I will kill it”

Ui Yong Jiang tried to comfort Cong lei.

‘At least, maybe after hearing this, he will die with a bit of hatred, who knows?

Besides it's none of my business, it's just, seeing his friend betray him is kind of pathetic’.

Aaaaaa.

Ui Yong Jiang slowly closed his hand, and the hand that used earth element turned into stone that held Cong lei slowly began to crumble his body.
