"Hmph! Hongyu! What are you shouting about? Don't think we don't know your secrets!" Lao De snorted. The Earth Demon Dragon had nearly taken his life last time. Although he had contributed little, the Yellow Ridge Gate had still rewarded him in consideration of his injuries: three drops of the Earth Demon Dragon's essence blood and five life flowers. With these two supreme treasures, Lao De had not only recovered completely but also grown considerably stronger. Naturally, Huang Huatian had treated him so generously because he wanted his help. After all, while Lao De lacked Li Xiaoya's heaven-defying divine abilities, his strength still placed him among the top twenty in the Yellow Ridge Territory. Of course they would invite him!

"Hmph! Hongyu! Do you think we don't know about your relationship with that old bastard Hao Ling?" Huang Huatian snorted.

His head slumped to one side, and he passed out. Li Xiaoya then pointed a finger, and the Immortal-Binding Rope flew into his hand
