Boom!
Lin Bei and Qiqi were searching for the Fire Crystal Mine in the Raging Flames Mountain Range. Suddenly, the ground shook in the distance, and more than half of a mountain peak collapsed.
“There’s a Dark Law fluctuation over there!”
Lin Bei’s Eye of Stars immediately captured the black energy that flashed in the sea of fire. “It should be Badis. I don’t know what this brat has done again! Looks like there’s a lot of trouble. Let’s go over and take a look!”
With that, he and Qiqi flew into the air and rushed towards the area where the energy erupted.
***
“Damn, this Fire Dragon is so fierce!”
Badis screamed and fled.
In his arms was a red tail.
“Kid, stop right there! I’m going to kill you!”
A furious roar came from behind. Then, a fiery-red Two-Winged Dragon more than ten meters long sped over and spat flames at Badis.
At this moment, a section of the Two-Winged Dragon’s tail was broken. Blood kept pouring down from the sky and fell into the sea of fire, making the fire even stronger.
“Master Dragon, I didn’t do it on purpose!”
“Bullsh*t! You didn’t do it on purpose? Why did you cut my tail? Die!”
The Two-Winged Dragon was furious. “In my life, I hate you greedy humans the most! For your own greed, you keep squeezing the living space of other races! Damn it!”
“Master Dragon, calm down! You hate humans, but it has nothing to do with me! I’m not human!”
“That’s right! In the words of you humans, your actions just now were indeed inhuman!”
“No, no, no! That’s not what I meant. I mean, I’m really not human! I’m a demon! In ancient times, we even cooperated with the Dragon Clan. Do you know?”
As Badis fled, he shouted, “You can’t kill me! I’m the prince of the Night Demon Clan! If you kill me, my mom and dad will definitely not let you off!”
“Alright! You’re trying to fool me! I know Night Demons! Every Night Demon has antennae on their foreheads and a pair of huge black wings. What about you? Do you have these? If not, die!”
With that, a mouthful of flames shot down and enveloped Badis, trapping him in the center of the raging flames.
“I—”
Badis wanted to cry.
Damn, I want to change back too!
However, he could not do it himself!
Oh no, oh no, oh no!
Was he really going to die this time?
I can’t accept this!
Right!
I have the Source of Darkness!
It can prove the identity of the Night Demon Clan!
Thinking of this, Badis hurriedly shouted, “Master Dragon, spare my life! I’m really the Night Demon! If you don’t believe me, look at this! This is the Source of Darkness! Only the Night Demon Clan and the Shadow Demon Clan have it! And the Source of Darkness in my hand is a top-grade Source of Darkness! Only the members of the Night Demon Clan with noble status can have it! This time, you should believe my identity, right?”
Badis raised a black vortex above his head and shouted for mercy, “Master Dragon, as long as you spare me, I’ll give you this top-grade Source of Darkness! How about it?”
“Eh?”
The Two-Winged Dragon stared at the black vortex that Badis raised with surprise.
It was really the Source of Darkness!
Moreover, looking at the density of the Law of Darkness, it was definitely top-grade!
If he could obtain that and comprehend the power of the Laws of Darkness inside, he would definitely be able to step into the Extraordinary realm!
This was a good thing!
In comparison, his tail was not worth mentioning at all.
His tail was broken, and he only needed to consume some life force to grow back. However, if he missed this Source of Darkness…
“Kid… are you really the prince of the Night Demon Clan as you said?”
“It’s absolutely true!”
Badis nodded frantically.
“But your appearance…”
“Master Dragon, you might not know this, but it’s all because I was cursed by a despicable human that I became like this! The current me can’t remove the curse myself, so I can’t return to my main body!”
Badis said bitterly, “Master Dragon, I hate humans like you do!”
“I see! In that case, I’ll accept your Source of Darkness! However, I, Long Yi, won’t take advantage of you. Weren’t you cursed by a human? Tell me, what realm is that human at? I’ll help you deal with him! This way, you can recover your original appearance!”
The Two-Winged Dragon said in a low voice. In fact, he still did not believe Badis, so he wanted to test him. If it was true, it would be best. If it was fake, he did not mind killing Badis on the spot!
He hated humans, especially greedy and treacherous humans!
“Really? Thank you so much! With your help, we can definitely kill him! I know his strength. Half a month ago, we fought. He’s stronger than me, but his strength is limited! According to my estimation, that guy is at most at the Emperor Realm!”
“Emperor? Haha, trash!”
When Long Yi heard this, he laughed and said, “Don’t worry, leave this matter to me! Give me the Source of Darkness and tell me the location of that trash. I’ll help you deal with him later!”
“Alright! Thank you, Master Long!”
Badis was overjoyed when he heard this. He finally did not have to die!
This Fire Dragon seemed to be really powerful. According to his observations, it had the strength of a Monarch-tier expert at least, and it was not a weak one!
With his current strength, he was not a match at all!
Although he had lost the top-grade Source of Darkness, that thing was not worth mentioning compared to his life!
Moreover, this Source of Darkness might not be lost!
He had lived in Dark Moon Valley for a period of time. Coupled with the restriction of Lin Bei’s Spirit Contract, how could he dare to resist Lin Bei now?
However, he was not stupid. Since this Two-Winged Fire Dragon hated humans, he said those words just now.
“Hmph, you’re just a Monarch-tier expert. How can you beat my big brother? Dream on! My brother has more than one Extraordinary fighter beside him!”
Badis sneered in his heart. Suddenly, he felt a familiar voice coming from the depths of his consciousness.
“Badis? Was that you?”
At this moment, Lin Bei and Qiqi were already close to the place where the flames were chaotic. As they got closer, he felt a faint soul connection.
This was an ability given to him by the Spirit Contract. After approaching the contracted, he could directly communicate with them through the soul.
However, the surrounding Flame Laws were too chaotic, making it difficult for Lin Bei to locate Badis. Otherwise, he would have gone to look for him instead of asking like this.
“Haha! Big Brother? You’re finally here! There’s a Fire Dragon here! He wants to snatch the top-grade Source of Darkness in my hand! Come and save me! I’m in danger!”
Badis was extremely excited. Damn, is this the Legendary entrance of a Heavenly God?
Just as I was caught in danger, Big Brother came out to save me!
How touching!
Badis was extremely touched. He immediately passed his position to Lin Bei through the power of the Spirit Contract.
“Think of a way to delay for a while. I’ll be there soon! Also, don’t let that guy use the Source of Darkness. That thing is very useful to me!”
After Lin Bei received the coordinates, he smiled.
From what Badis had just said, he had heard the words “Source of Darkness”. Since Badis had it, it was fine.
“Qiqi, accelerate!”
“Alright!”
Qiqi nodded slightly when she heard that. She pulled Lin Bei and sped up. Her speed was more than three times faster than before!
***
In the place where the flames were chaotic, Badis completely relaxed.
My brother will be here soon. Why should I be afraid!
On the other hand, Big Brother said that he had great use for this Source of Darkness. I have to watch it closely and not let this guy use it!
Thinking of this, Badis directly put away the Source of Darkness.
“Eh?”
Seeing this, a trace of dissatisfaction flashed across Long Yi’s lantern-like pupils. He said in a low voice, “Kid, did you not understand what I told you? Give me the Source of Darkness!”
“Master Long! You’ve misunderstood! It’s not that I don’t want to give it to you, but we really can’t do this!”
Badis hurriedly explained, “The power of the Fire Law is everywhere in the surroundings, and the Source of Darkness is a special existence condensed from the power of the Darkness Law. It can only be stored with the special methods of our Night Demon Clan. Otherwise, if you’re not careful, it might be affected by the power of the Fire Law and damaged. In that case, if the top-grade item becomes defective, it will be a huge loss for you!”
“I see. Then you have to keep it well! This Source of Darkness is very important to me. Let me say this first. If anything happens to it, I don’t care if you’re a prince of the Night Demon Race. You’re dead! Do you understand?”
“I understand! Don’t worry!”
Badis hurriedly nodded and cursed in his heart, “I’m dead? Hmph, it’s more like you’re dead!”
“Well, tell me, where is the trash who cursed you now?”
“I don’t know the exact location, but I was chased by him, so I fled to the Raging Flames Mountain Range in a panic. Therefore, I speculate that that kid should have entered the Raging Flames Mountain Range by now!”
Badis looked worried. “Moreover, I have the curse he cast on me, so it’s very likely that he can locate me in the Raging Flames Mountain Range. As for his location… I really don’t know!”
“Haha, look at you! What are you afraid of? With me around, a mere Emperor Level Expert is trash!”
“But… We have to be careful. Humans are very cunning. Who knows if he will hire some helpers?”
Badis reminded him, “Why don’t we go to your cave! You can unleash stronger combat strength there!”
“Well… Okay.”
Long Yi sneered in his heart.
You’re only a King-tier guy. How powerful would an Emperor-tier expert be if he hired help to hunt you down?
Moreover, I’m at the peak of the Monarch level!
Even if dozens of Emperor-tier powerhouses come, they would not be my match!
However, Badis was right about one thing. Humans were very cunning. Who knew if they had any dirty tricks?
He could indeed return to the vicinity of the cave just in case. In the words of humans, it was better to be safe than sorry!
Moreover, in his own base, this kid could forget about escaping. To him, who wanted to obtain the Source of Darkness, returning to his cave was indeed a good choice!
Not bad, this kid was not bad. He was good!
At the very least, he was not like those cunning humans who had a stomach full of evil tricks that made people feel nauseous!
“Kid, you’re not bad. After today, you can stay by my side and be my dragon servant. I’ll teach you some Dragon Spells to increase your strength!”
“Thank you, Master Long!”
Upon hearing this, Badis danced with joy.
Seeing this, Long Yi nodded all over the ground, feeling very pleased.
This kid was not bad.
That was good too. It was quite boring to be alone. With a servant accompanying him, it was just nice to relieve his boredom.
Then, Long Yi swept up a violent wind and he left with Badis.
On the way, Badis kept sending messages to Lin Bei through the power of the Spirit Contract.
“This guy actually changed the location to the dragon’s den.”
Lin Bei smiled faintly.
That guy wanted to ask for a reward.
Dragons generally liked to collect treasures. There must be many treasures hidden in their caves.
The treasures collected by a Monarch Dragon would not be too bad.
Lin Bei would see if there was anything he did not need. He’d reward him with a few pieces so that he could do his job well in the future.
After all, he was the prince of the Night Demon Race. He might be very useful in the future.
***
On the other side, Long Yi had already brought Badis to his cave.
Previously, in order to secretly cut off Long Yi’s tail, Badis had not carefully observed the cave. Now that he had entered the cave and looked at his surroundings, he was stunned.
“So many top-grade fire crystals? And those… are they Flame Essences? There’s also Hundred Refined Iron and Earth Fire Heart… Damn, so many good things. I’m rich!”
As the little prince of the Night Demon Clan, although Badis’ strength was not much, he was knowledgeable. Anything in this cave was an incredible treasure!
Most importantly, there were many of them!
At first, Badis was still wondering why the Human Race was so bad.
They were actually greedy enough to steal the treasures of the Dragon Race. Now that he had seen it, damn, the Dragon Race did not use so many treasures at all. They were purely used as decorations. It was a complete waste of gifts!
With so many good things, it would be a fool not to be tempted!
Badis swallowed.
This time, Big Brother will gain a lot. In summary, I’ve had made a contribution this time. Coupled with the top-grade Source of Darkness, from Teacher Mo’s evaluation of Big Brother, he is very generous!
Especially to his friends!
Badis was looking forward to it.
This time, I should be able to obtain some benefits, right?
He did not think about Extraordinary Spirit Essences. It would be very satisfying to have a set of Obsidian equipment!
“Kid, I spent nearly 3,000 years collecting these ornaments. Don’t have any crooked thoughts!”
“Master Long, what are you thinking! I’m your loyal servant. Why would I have any crooked thoughts?”
“Yes, this better be the case.”
Long Yi nodded indifferently and said in a low voice, “I dislike your gaze just now. Let me tell you, if you dare…”
Swoosh!
Just as Long Yi’s expression was cold and he was about to reprimand Badis, a sword light suddenly rose from the ground and pierced through Long Yi’s abdomen.
In an instant, blood flowed.
At the same time, Lin Bei appeared in the cave and looked around, his eyes bright.
The dragon… was so rich?
Damn, he had made a killing!
“Qiqi, deal with him and keep the blood essence.”
“Okay.”
Qiqi nodded slightly when she heard this. She held the thin sword in her hand and chased after the target. In less than ten seconds, she finished off Long Yi at the peak of the Monarch Level.
“Badis, where is my source of darkness?”
“Ah! Here! I’ll give it to Big Brother now!”
Badis was dumbfounded. Damn, this is so violent. This is the peak of the Monarch Level. He actually can’t last more than ten seconds?
Oh my god, isn’t this too fierce?
Lin Bei took the Source of Darkness and nodded in satisfaction. He put it into his inventory and looked at Badis, who was filled with anticipation. He smiled and directly used the ability of the Mutated Blood, consuming a drop of the Monarch Blood to increase Badis’ aura countless times!
“This is your reward! Now, you’re already a Monarch and have a mutated bloodline. You’re even stronger! In addition, when you go back, you can apply for a set of Obsidian-grade equipment from the person in charge of Azure Plume.”
Lin Bei said with a smile.
“Big Brother! You’re my ancestor! You’re too good to me! I love you!”
Badis was so excited that he was about to cry. He pounced on Lin Bei and was about to give him a bear hug.
BANG!
He flew out of the cave.
Lin Bei looked disgusted and pursed his lips. “Get lost. There are many top-grade Fire Crystal Stones here. Take some and go back to your teacher for research. I still have something on. I’ll leave first.”
Lin Bei raised his hand and waved it, putting all the treasures in the cave into his bag. He only left more than ten top-grade Fire Crystal Stones for Badis before leaving.
“I’ve obtained the Source of Darkness! I’m confident in rescuing Elena. Next, Qiqi, come with me to the Holy Light Village. It’s time to reconstruct your body.”
“Okay.”
Qiqi nodded, unable to hide the joy in her eyes.
