Identity Exposed

Seeing that she had driven back the Burly Man, Zi Yan immediately pressed her advantage, using her small fists to deliver punch after punch to the Burly Man.

Faced with Zi Yan's attack, the Burly Man was repelled once again, and a bitter smile appeared in his heart.

Normally, when fighting others, they would use brute force to overpower them. But now, facing the much stronger Zi Yan, the Burly Man realized just how difficult it was.

Of course, he couldn't win a head-on confrontation with Zi Yan, as evidenced by his two defeats. But if he didn't engage in direct combat with Zi Yan, his Burly Man, accustomed to this style of fighting that relies on brute force, might be fine for using other fighting methods to bully the weak, but against Zi Yan, who is stronger than him, it wouldn't be enough.

Having taken another punch from Zi Yan, blood was already trickling from the corner of the Burly Man's mouth.

At this moment, Lin Ming saw that the Burly Man's arm was twitching and trembling from time to time, and Lin Ming knew that this man would not be able to withstand Zi Yan's violent attack for long.

Half an hour later, as Zi Yan punched the Burly Man in the chest, he spat out a mouthful of blood mixed with fragments of his internal organs, and then fell to the ground.

Seeing the Burly Man fall to the ground, Lin Ming and Zi Yan immediately flapped their wings and followed him.

Upon reaching the ground, the Burly Man spat out another mouthful of blood. Then, seeing the two pursuing him, Burly Man knew he was doomed. So much so that when he saw Lin Ming and Zi Yan arrive, Burly Man clutched his chest and burst into laughter.

"Although I can't leave today, you won't have an easy time either. Especially you, Ancient Void Dragon, you'll be facing endless pursuit from my clan from now on!" After laughing, the Burly Man glanced at Lin Ming, then looked at Zi Yan and said with a venomous tone.

"Zi Yan, retreat quickly! He's about to self-destruct!" As soon as the Burly Man speaking, Lin Ming felt the energy surging rapidly within his body, so Lin Ming immediately shouted.

In fact, with Zi Yan's strength, she should have been able to sense the energy fluctuations within the Burly Man's body under normal circumstances. However, because the Burly Man mentioned the Ancient Void Dragon of the Void to Zi Yan, she felt that her Zi Yan was about to be revealed and wanted to ask him for clarification, which is why she did not notice the changes in the Burly Man.

For many years, Zi Yan lived a lonely life. However, she later met Su Qian, who brought Zi Yan back to the Inner Academy, and then met Lin Ming, which made Zi Yan no longer lonely.

But that doesn't mean Zi Yan doesn't want to find out about her origins. So many years of loneliness and hardship have made Zi Yan constantly yearn to understand her past, to ask her parents why they abandoned her in the forest. And now, hearing this Burly Man roar that he is the Ancient Void Dragon, Zi Yan naturally wants to know what's going on.

After all, even Great Elder Su Qian Dou Zong expert, couldn't discern his race after he transformed. How could this person have identified him?

You say he's talking nonsense, then why was he able to follow us without being shaken off after leaving the Su Residence? Lin Ming and Zi Yan even changed directions along the way, but he still managed to keep up. This means he has a method to track them. And this method is very likely related to his claim that he is the Ancient Void Dragon.

So after hearing what the other person said, Zi Yan immediately wanted to ask. But after hearing Lin Ming's reminder, Zi Yan stepped back.

"Boom!"

With a deafening roar and a surge of energy, Lin Ming and Zi Yan were forced to circulate their Dou Qi to resist. Just then, from within the Burly Man's exploding body, an aura transformed into a stream of light that shot into the sky and vanished into the horizon in the blink of an eye.

The energy impact of the Burly Man's self-destruction came and went quickly. A moment later, Lin Ming's Dou Qi Energy shield trembled outwards, repelling the aftershocks.

Looking at the large crater left by the Burly Man, Lin Ming raised his head and looked up at the sky, then shook his head helplessly.

Lin Ming had seen an aura surge from the Burly Man's body when he self-destructed. However, at that moment, the energy impact was at its strongest, and Lin Ming had to focus all his energy on resisting it, leaving him no time to pay attention to the aura.

Now that the energy impact has weakened, that aura has long since disappeared without a trace. Even if Lin Ming wanted to pursue it, there would be no way to find it, so Lin Ming could only shake his head helplessly.

"Lin Ming, are you alright?" Zi Yan asked Lin Ming with concern.

"I'm fine," Lin Ming replied, looking at Zi Yan.

"Lin Ming, did you hear what that person said just now?" After receiving Lin Ming's reply, Zi Yan asked Lin Ming again with anticipation.

"It's about your background, isn't it? Since this person says so, whether it's true or not, we've at least gotten a clue. After we finish dealing with things here, I'll accompany you to investigate your background." Seeing Zi Yan's expression, Lin Ming immediately said.

Having the memories of the original work, Lin Ming naturally knew that Zi Yan's true form was the Ancient Void Dragon, and that she possessed the royal bloodline of the Ancient Void Dragon. However, Lin Ming had been unable to tell Zi Yan this before, otherwise, if Zi Yan were to ask Lin Ming how he knew, Lin Ming would find it difficult to answer.

However, this experience actually gave Lin Ming a better direction when he later helped Zi Yan search for her origins. Since Zi Yan had heard what the Burly Man said, Zi Yan began to believe she might be Ancient Void Dragon, and therefore stopped questioning Lin Ming about why they were searching for the Ancient Void Dragon. After all, it was this Burly Man who said Zi Yan was Ancient Void Dragon, and Lin Ming was simply following his instructions.

"Mmm, Lin Ming, you're so kind!" Upon hearing Lin Ming's reply, Zi Yan immediately nodded and said.

Although Zi Yan wanted to find out about her origins, Zi Yan was very afraid of this unfamiliar background. So when she heard Lin Ming say that he would accompany her in the search, Zi Yan was naturally moved.

"It's nothing. Alright, let's go! Xiao Yi Xian must be getting impatient waiting alone." Lin Ming said with a smile after Zi Yan finished speaking.

Zi Yan nodded, and then followed Lin Ming as they soared into the sky once more.

"Lin Ming, Zi Yan, are you alright!" Upon seeing Lin Ming and Zi Yan fly over, the worried Xiao Yi Xian immediately breathed a sigh of relief, but still asked.

"Don't worry, we're fine," Lin Ming replied, looking at Xiao Yi Xian.

"Let's go, let's officially head back to the family now." After a moment, Lin Ming said, and then several figures streaked across the sky and disappeared into the setting sun.
