Helian Wei Wei thought she could avoid this hit too, but to her surprise, the Green Dragon's claw was filled with immense ferocity this time!
Helian Wei Wei might have managed to evade being crushed by the claw but all her internal organs started to convulse after being struck by the ferocious aura. Then, she fell onto the ground.
The Green Dragon thought she would definitely die this time.
While it was planning for a second strike.
Swoosh!
Helian Wei Wei speedily rose, with her fingers clasped around an umbrella. She flew into the air and released the little one she rescued to safety with a quick dive.
She turned around with spectacular beauty.
She instantly grabbed onto the iron chains shackling the Green Dragon with her left hand!
Roar!
A dragon roar could be heard.
Lightning flashed and thunder roared as the clouds and wind furiously billowed.
But Helian Wei Wei stood firm in the eye of the storm, with her hands still gripping tightly to the iron chains. She had no intention of letting it go.
Green Dragon turned its head, trying to shake her off. But without the Green Dragon realizing, she had climbed onto its back!
"Hey, Dragon Boss, do you want to be free from these chains?" Helian Wei Wei, with a speck of blood at the corner of her mouth, rode onto the dragon's back and said excitedly. "I can help free you if you want, but only on one condition, you must obey me forever!"
Green Dragon snorted, "Human, are you dreaming? Do you know what this iron chain is made from? It was made from the finest black ice iron and stamped with the seal of an ancient god. Do you think you can undo it?"
"God's seal only has an effect on beasts, but I am not one," Helian Wei Wei thinned her lips and said. "Furthermore, it's not too difficult to unlock these chains. Every machinery has its button, you just have to search for it."
Green Dragon fell silent for a moment and then said, "I have sworn my loyalty to one person a very long time ago. Even though he has vanished, I am still waiting for him. Hence, I cannot obey you."
"It's no big deal," Helian Wei Wei rubbed the back of her hand. "We shall not be bound by any contract. You only have to assist me three times. Should you fulfill your duties, I will unleash you to roam free and search for your owner. You are trapped here anyway and will not be able to sense it even if your owner comes searching for you, so why not cooperate with me instead? What do you think?"
The Green Dragon squinted as it writhed in the clouds, "Are you sure you can unlock the black ice iron chain?"
"Yes." Helian Wei Wei gazed down at the iron chains resting in her palms. "But I would need some time. Dragon Boss, please stop moving for now as I will have to be responsible for the deaths of the people you trampled on. After all, I am the one who summoned you."
The Green Dragon muttered in agreement, as it pondered curiously how a human could have the ability to summon it.
However, it did not think much about it.
It had been trapped in these iron chains for too long.
1000 years ago.
The palace was ruined and its owner had disappeared.
It sought revenge against humankind so it traversed across the world, razing countless villages and cities to the ground.
However, this angered the gods and they locked it under the lake, and 1000 years had since passed.
Throughout the 1000 years, he was filled with fury in the beginning. It slowly evolved into disappointment, before finally turning into a funereal calmness.
When it accepted the fact that its owner was no longer around, it lost all interest in the human world.
It had forgotten the smell of the sunlight.
If it was not for this little girl, it would have remained completely oblivious and waited for its owner with a dying hope.
At last, it could finally be free from this chain!
No matter how reserved Green Dragon was, the light emanating from both its pupils was enough to tell Helian Wei Wei how much it wanted to escape from the cage.
Helian Wei Wei wasted no time in tracing the iron chains and swiftly dove down to hunt for the head of the chain.
The academy students were not sure what had happened. Seeing that the Green Dragon was moving its enormous mouth, they had assumed that it was munching on Helian Wei Wei's bones and she was completely swallowed into his stomach.
Helian Jiao Er laughed devilishly. Who would have thought that the b*tch demise was going to be her own fault?
This makes me unbelievably happy!
However, Yun Biluo did not think it would have ended so easily as she had lost contact with the Bloody Snake that should be answering her.
Yun Biluo raised her head, feeling puzzled. At that very moment, she saw Helian Wei Wei climbing down the iron chains!
She didn't die!
She is attempting to unlock the chains!
Once the chains are unlocked, the dragon god will recognize her as its owner!
I have to stop her!
Yun Biluo's eyes were beaming, the black blood seeped into the underground as she dropped her arms. She was muttering some sort of chant.
Bang!
The underground creatures began to rumble into life.
Her bloodshot eyes shivered as though being flashed by a blinding light. As she was trying to get up, she found her way was being blocked by a long-haired silhouette in a dark robe.
Bloody Snake felt great fear rising from the bottom of its heart, coursing through its veins and choking him, thus completely paralyzing him.
Who is this person...
Chapter 322 - His Highness Saved A Beauty
The Fire Qilin was unperturbed by the reaction of the Bloody Snake.
His esteemed owner would always be graceful and condescending. He would not easily reveal his ability.
However, once he sprung into action, he could send all the beasts into shudders by simply raising his eyebrows.
The enemy did not seem to comprehend this.
It even bared its sharp, disgusting venomous fangs.
Fire Qilin had never liked snakes. These gloomy and cold creatures were Fire Qilin's natural enemies.
The Bloody Snake had not seen the Fire Qilin as Baili Jia Jue had yet to unleash it.
The Bloody Snake had gradually recovered from the shock and started to flick its tongue. Hiss, hiss. Its evil, greedy eyes narrowed as it hissed. It was ready to bite off the neck of the man standing in front of it.
Baili Jia Jue carried the Wings of the Grim Reaper with one hand and stared at it coldly. "Are you the one who released that disgusting smell?"
Pitter-patter...
Another drop of black blood dripped down the snake's head.
"It was me. Hahaha! Never have thought that a human can notice my existence. But, it doesn't matter as you are going to die!" The Bloody Snake's pupils shrank as it was speaking. Then, it lunged at Baili Jia Jue!
However, Baili Jia Jue stood there, not moving at all. The fox fur robe he wore was plain. The glistering furs were not blown out of place by the wind.
The Bloody Snake opened its mouth. He raised his hand and flung it a few meters away before it managed to bite him!
"Foolish." Scathing cold words were muttered.
As the man steadily approached, the Bloody Snake felt an unprecedented danger.
It shook its huge head and sneakily lashed its tail, whirling up a huge amount of dust and gravel.
Baili Jia Jue squinted his eyes as he walked into the middle of the gravel with his slender legs. His fingers were wrapped in black gloves, hanging freely on his side.
"Tsk tsk tsk. Why can't you get it?"
In the smokescreen of dust, Baili Jia Jue's eyes were gleaming with coldness. The smile on his face turned sinister and murderous.
Upon seeing this, the Bloody Snake ran even faster!
He had never seen any human that could walk out from the whirling gravel!
Ba
ili Jia Jue opened his mouth and bit off his gloves, thus, exposing the black vine-like scars on his wrist.
The Bloody Snake's expression changed completely after seeing that familiar sear. Without any hesitation, it soared up into the sky.
It looked at her as though she was some fresh food.
It opened its bloody mouth, wanting to gulp her down into its stomach.
She had no time to attend to it. As she was about to avoid it, a splashing sound was heard.
God knows whose martial Qi was so powerful that it could have a specific form like a tall mirror wall, slamming the giant python against the surface of the lake.
After the burst of silver light, the ferocious python lost all of its aura of killing. It was barely breathing as it had come to a dead end.
Its mouth moved slightly as though it was calling for someone.
However, it received no response.
Helian Wei Wei was stunned, unable to process what had just happened. Just then, she saw a man who was holding the Wings of the Grim Reaper with one hand. He looked noble in his long robe and his waist-long hair was as dark as ink.
Murderous bloodshed was happening on the Green Dragon Lake. Baili Jia Jue's moves could not be seen clearly after the flashing of silver light. However, the forlorn and shrill m.o.a.n of the giant python could be heard high up in the sky. In the blink of an eye, the giant python was slammed from the lake's surface onto the ground. The vibrations set the White Academy quaking for some time.
Baili Jia Jue placed the sword back into its sheath. He ended the fight without a drop of blood staining him. He was looking at Helian Wei Wei condescendingly with no expression.
I have never seen someone who rescues people with such arrogance!
Helian Wei Wei raised her brow. Her cognition toward His Highness had reached a whole new level.
The clueless students gasped in astonishment upon knowing the appearance of the Bloody Snake.
Why would such an evil beast appear in the academy?
Who summoned it?
How was it done?
The teacher was looking at the giant head of the snake with lingering fear. His forehead was covered in cold sweats.
If no one had killed the snake, then it could have wrought great havoc and eat up many students.
Such vicious creatures should not be allowed to appear outside the Forest of Fantasy.
This… what has gone wrong?
The teacher lifted his head as his fingers were trembling. Then, he looked over his head and saw the Green Dragon that seemed to have fallen asleep; even its eyes were half-closed.
He thought that the dragon god was so infuriated that he would not be relieved even if it swallowed humans.
That was why it decided not to return and would stay in the White Academy. This had caused the teacher to feel distressed.
He was clueless about the fact that the Green Dragon obeyed Helian Wei Wei's instruction to go into a light sleep. When the Mysterious Ice Iron Lock was unlocked, it would definitely get in touch with its dragon scales. If it stayed awake, the dragon scales would turn into flames and hurt Helian Wei Wei.
At that moment, Yun Biluo held firmly onto her left shoulder as she moved a step back. No one seemed to realize that she spat a mouthful of black blood as the giant python fell.
She leaned against the tree trunk as she was unable to hold on. Her eyes stared deeply into the fog.
No one knew what happened under the thick layers of fog.
Little Bald Head stood up after pondering for a moment. Then, he proudly asked the beast he brought along, "Was the one who attacked my Third Brother?"
"Master, it was indeed the Third Prince." A little one who was slightly bigger than Little Bald Head appeared out of nowhere and obediently answered his question. Then, it disappeared.
Little Seventh Prince calmly replied, "There is nothing to be worried about. My Third Brother will definitely be with Third Aunt. The snake looks good, clean it up and we will roast it tonight."
"Yes." The little one understood his owner well. It was merely a Bloody Snake. They had eaten a dragon, a snake would be a walk in the park! Hurry up and clean it! Since it despised snakes, it was better to have fewer snakes!
Jing Wushuang stood in the midst of chaos with a green and white robe, appearing like precious jade. He placed his hands at the corner of his mouth and coughed while rubbing something with his thumb. Then, he turned to his side and looked at the Green Dragon.
Jealousy intensified in Helian Jiao Er's heart as she noticed his gaze.
She is merely a hideous dark-skinned woman.
Why does Master Wushuang value her so much?
However, it would be unnecessary for her to intervene any further. It would take less than an hour for her to be completely digested after being swallowed by the dragon god!
Ha. She would just wait for the dragon god to spit out the bones of that little bastard!
Chapter 323 - Encountered Upon Unlocking
In the meantime, Helian Wei Wei had found the source of the iron chain. She did not ask Baili Jia Jue why he was here.
She emerged with water dripping from her hair while carrying the dangling hairpin that she brought from the ground in her mouth. She was soaked thoroughly.
A chill menace surrounded the lake's surface as the wind blew.
The Mysterious Ice Iron Chain in her hand felt extremely cold. It would be impossible for a normal person to hold it.
Helian Wei Wei's eyes remained bright. It was not because she was in perfect health. On the contrary, she was on her period, and thus, she did not feel well.
However, she had to fulfill the promise that she had made to the Green Dragon.
Helian Wei Wei examined the iron lock. Her eyes were gleaming with coldness.
"Woman, use your martial Qi," Yuan Ming uttered, "Otherwise, you will not be able to unlock the Mysterious Ice Iron Lock."
Helian Wei Wei obeyed. Her fingers were slightly moving and her long sleeves fluttered. With her piercing voice, she ordered, "Under my command, I summon the power of the winds and clouds in the sky!"
Whoosh!
The surrounding fog dispersed reactively and the temperature of the Mysterious Ice Iron began to change.
Within that short period of time, Helian Wei Wei quickly fit the dangling hairpin into the lock and turned it twice, forming the cl.i.c.k.i.n.g sound.
Just then, a thud sound was heard!
The iron lock had been unlocked!
It sank into the Green Dragon Lake along with the blood from Helian Wei Wei's cut finger.
Thump…
Thump!
The sounds were muffled as though someone's heartbeat was reviving.
None of the students in the White Academy knew what was going on.
Everyone raised their heads and looked into the sky upon hearing this unusual commotion.
They could see the Green Dragon's eyes suddenly tremored!
Viridescent light illuminated in its eyes. It was so mighty as if it could pierce through the ninth heaven, brewing storms.
At that very moment.
The teacher was totally dumbfounded and muttered, "This is the Green Dragon, one of the four ancient mythical beasts. The Green Dragon has awakened… It has truly awakened!"
Little Seventh Prince was still holding the wooden stick as he crouched in the corner, poking the Bloody Snake's head. He raised his vibrant little face as he heard the news of the awakening of the Green Dragon. He muttered to himself, "Now that it's awake, I can't eat it anymore."
Where are you, Dean? Please bring this child back!
The teacher almost burst into tears while the Little Seventh Prince's expression remained unchanged for being slightly disappointed.
However, he did not forget to console the others even though he was disappointed. "It's fine, teacher. We may not have the dragon meat, but we still have the snake meat."
Who cares about that!
Speaking to the Little Seven
th Prince is more difficult than to fight the dragon god!
Little Seventh Prince looked at the teacher with a confused expression. He wondered why his Third Brother was not back with his Third Aunt yet.
Is my Third Brother still thinking about helping me to fight over the dragon?
Hmm… It's fine even if I can't eat the dragon meat.
Needless to say, the Little Seventh Prince was really overthinking!
Among the students, only Yun Biluo's expression was not quite right. However, she must not let anyone notice it.
Especially her bitten left hand. Fortunately, the teachers' skills were still unpolished, hence, they might not realize it.
However, if Tu Sufeng was here, he would know that the emergence of the Bloody Snake was suspicious.
In fact, she would not have been able to summon the Bloody Snake to work for her by just relying on her ability.
Most importantly, in this situation… she had an ally.
Yun Biluo closed her eyes for a brief moment. When she looked up, the Green Dragon had broken free from the Mysterious Ice Iron Chain. It swung its tail and the water splashed in all directions.
Yun Biluo's eyes blinked as she dashed toward the little one. With a quick turn, she brought him to the corner.
Little Seventh Prince looked at her angrily.
Yun Biluo had never met such a difficult child. However, she had predicted him to be much smarter than usual kids as he was His Highness's brother.
She leaned weakly on the side. She then asked him with a smile, "Are you hurt?"
But the next moment, he understood.
A slender figure was standing not far away. It was none other than his Third Brother.
Naturally, Yun Biluo had seen Baili Jia Jue. Her head was slightly tilted and her eyes were red. She quietly stared at the man who was approaching them as if her gaze was filled with a thousand words.
Helian Wei Wei landed on the ground as the pain in her abdomen worsened, leaving behind the Green Dragon to savor his long-lost freedom.
In the middle of the commotion, no one could see clearly.
