Following the Golden-armored creature's gaze, Ning Rongrong's eyes lit up at once.
She was not someone obsessed with looks, but the person who appeared this time was truly the kind of boy who could charm countless girls!
He was a youth who looked even younger than her. Clad in dazzling golden battle armor, he shone like a heavenly sun hanging high in the sky. He held a Golden Spear in his hand, his black hair streaming like a waterfall, his voice full of teasing.
"Xiao San, say what you just said again. I didn't hear it clearly."
"My lord, spare me! Please spare me!"
Ignoring the Golden-armored creature's pleas, the youth passed straight through the light barrier and walked up to Ning Rongrong, a trace of curiosity in his eyes.
"Your vitality is even weaker than that of an ordinary Blood Transporting Realm cultivator. How did you break through the Medicine garden's defenses and enter?"
Ning Rongrong opened her mouth, intending to say that she had been thrown in by a mysterious voice. Yet the final words of that mysterious voice before she had been teleported away instantly made her swallow back everything she was about to say.
"Don't want to say?"
Ning Rongrong shook her head.
"Then you don't know?"
Seeing Ning Rongrong nod, the youth did not say anything more. With a wave of his hand, he took away the Spirit Herb in the Medicine garden. Then he looked Ning Rongrong over and nodded.
"You're coming with me too."
If it had been anyone else, even her own father, Ning Fengzhi, Ning Rongrong might not have chosen to obey. Yet for some reason, this youth's words gave her an urge to obediently do as she was told.
"Xiao San, what are you still waiting for? Or do you want to be eaten like Xiao Er and Xiao Yi, treated like a dish?"
The moment the youth said this, everyone on Douluo Continent froze before collectively sucking in a breath. When they looked at the youth again, there was a little more fear in their eyes.
Eating people!
This was literally eating living people!
Although soul beasts on Douluo Continent could take human form once their cultivation reached a hundred thousand years, they were still soul beasts in essence. Moreover, they had never heard of anything as outrageous as eating a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast that had taken human form!
"My god! Nine Heavens and Ten Lands is far too dangerous. They actually eat people?"
"I'm already afraid to imagine it. Do you think Ning Rongrong will be steamed or braised?"
"Is that what we should be considering right now? Shouldn't we be considering whether she'll be eaten alive or killed first and then eaten?"
"Ugh, stop talking. That's disgusting."
At Shrek Academy, Oscar listened to the discussions of the students around him. The heart he had only just managed to calm clenched again, and his eyes were filled with despair as he looked at Ning Rongrong in the Light Screen.
He had never imagined that Nine Heavens and Ten Lands would have something as terrifying as people being eaten.
What made him despair most was that the one about to be eaten was the girl he liked...
At that thought, Oscar glared fiercely at the youth in the Light Screen, as though he wanted to carve the other's image into his mind!
"Rongrong, wait for me! I'll definitely avenge you!"
At the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, Ning Fengzhi, who had just woken up, fainted again upon seeing this scene.
Like everyone else, he thought the other party intended to use Rongrong as food...
My poor daughter, how could you be so unfortunate...
"Um, I... can I refuse?"
Ning Rongrong spoke tremblingly, not daring to raise her head to look at the youth at all.
The youth looked at Ning Rongrong in confusion.
"Why would you refuse? Do you want to die here? This is the deepest part of the Barren Mountain Range. Any Fierce beast here is at least in the Inscription Realm, perhaps even the Array Realm. With your strength, it's absolutely impossible for you to leave the Barren Mountain Range alive."
As the youth's words fell, the Golden-armored creature let out a roar toward the sky. The next moment, a golden Four-clawed Unicorn Flood Dragon over a thousand meters long soared into the air, majestic and domineering, leaving everyone dumbstruck.
Th-this... no one said the Golden-armored creature wasn't human!
They had originally thought that although the Golden-armored creature had a golden horn atop his head, he looked human from top to bottom. They had never expected him to be like a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast in human form. However, once a soul beast transformed into a human, it was an irreversible process. It was equivalent to abandoning its cultivation and cultivating anew in human form. The only way to become a soul beast again was after death.
Yet the Golden-armored creature could freely switch between human form and his original form!
So he wasn't going to eat anyone...
It was not only the people of Douluo Continent who felt awkward. Ning Rongrong's face was also burning at this moment.
She had completely misunderstood him...
Still, it was not entirely her fault. Who told him to phrase it in such a misleading way...
Seeing Ning Rongrong's strange expression, the youth thought for a moment. He decided that the Golden Horned Flood Dragon's ferocious appearance had probably frightened her, so he spoke.
"Don't be afraid. The Golden Horned Flood Dragon is merely my, Zhao Xiao's, pet. In the Three Thousand Dao Provinces, a Golden Horned Flood Dragon at Xiao San's level would not be qualified to be my pet. He wouldn't even be qualified to be my dog!"
Holy shit, was he really that arrogant?
Everyone on Douluo Continent, including those in the God Realm, was stunned.
What did he mean, not only was it unqualified to be his pet, it was not even qualified to be his dog?
This Golden Horned Flood Dragon was undoubtedly a powerhouse. What gave Zhao Xiao the right to say that the Golden Horned Flood Dragon was not even qualified to be his dog?!
Who did he think he was?!
Before Ning Rongrong could speak, the Golden Horned Flood Dragon's imposing voice rang out.
"My lord possesses one one-hundred-and-twenty-eighth of the Chu Clan bloodline. His status is incomparably noble, and he is a true Peerless Genius. Being able to serve as my lord's dog is the honor of me, Kinkaku."
What was contrast? This was contrast!
No one had expected the mighty and imposing Golden Horned Flood Dragon to be so fawning toward a human youth.
Then again, this youth might not necessarily be human either. After all, even beasts in Nine Heavens and Ten Lands could take human form!
Zhao Xiao could remain composed when other things were mentioned, but the moment someone brought up his one one-hundred-and-twenty-eighth Chu Clan bloodline, the corners of his mouth could not help but rise.
That was the Chu Clan!
The most terrifying Immortal King family in the Immortal Domain, without equal!
Its Immortal King Old Ancestor stood unrivaled in the present age. With his strength alone, he could make numerous Immortal Kings of the Other Realm hesitate to act rashly!
Even though his one one-hundred-and-twenty-eighth Chu Clan bloodline came only from an Extreme Dao Supreme of the Chu Clan, it was still the true blood of an Immortal King family!
As Zhao Xiao thought about it, an overwhelming aura far surpassing that of an ordinary Venerable Realm cultivator spread from him. The terrifying pressure swept across the entire Barren Mountain Range. At that moment, in the Barren Mountain Range, known as the most dangerous place in the region, the overlord Fierce beasts of the Venerable Realm all withdrew their fangs, hid their claws, and quietly crouched where they were.
It was as though they were awaiting their final judgment!
Even the Ancient Desolate Species Golden Horned Flood Dragon, also in the Venerable Realm, lowered the head it had always held high, showing submission to Zhao Xiao!
