broken……

It's broken?

Her inner core shattered!

"You?!" Luo Yue glared fiercely at Long Qianling, her eyes seeming as if she wanted to tear her to pieces.

"How dare you crush my inner core! I'll kill you!"

But no matter how angry she was, it was no use. Her inner core had been crushed, and she was now a useless person.

"Heh~"

Long Qianling sneered, pulled back his longsword, and thrust it at Luo Yue again. This time, Luo Yue couldn't dodge and was pierced through.

The last thing Luo Yue saw before she breathed her last was Long Qianling's mocking smile.

She...cannot die, she's about to transform into a dragon...

Despite her deep resentment, Luo Yue finally breathed her last, dying with her eyes wide open in disbelief.

The longsword in his hand turned into countless tiny stars, and with a wave of his hand, a gap appeared in front of him.

"etc!"

Bai Shaoheng's voice came from behind; he and Jiang Zhuoxue were jogging towards them.

Long Qianling ignored them, stepped inside, and disappeared into the gap. In the blink of an eye, the gap also vanished.

The sealed space, now without its master, began to tremble violently, shattering inch by inch like a mirror.

Bai Shaoheng and Jiang Zhuoxue had no choice but to dodge the falling debris while searching for a way out.

Long Qianling didn't care whether they lived or died; they were better off dying here.

...

Abyss of Evil.

Long Qianling walked to the place where he was sealed and released Bai Qingnian from his sea of ​​consciousness.

As for why she was able to put living people into her sea of ​​consciousness, it was because she was no longer a demon, but a dragon god with divine power.

Walking to the center of the seal, looking at the glossy black scale, I gently touched it with my hand, and the scale fell back onto my body.

Ten iron chains pierced through Long Qianling's limbs in an instant, forcing her to kneel on the ground. Blood instantly soaked her clothes, but even though the pierced areas were a bloody mess, Long Qianling seemed to feel no pain.

Looking at Bai Qingnian, who was still unconscious on the ground, she channeled a wisp of her divine power into his body. Only after confirming that he was alright did she close her eyes and meditate.

After a long while, Bai Qingnian finally woke up.

The moment I opened my eyes, I saw the blood-red sky unique to the Abyss of Evil.

Bai Qingnian quickly got up from the ground and saw the big black dragon sitting not far away. He quickly ran over and sat down next to her. When he got close to her, he felt that this Abyss of Evil was not so scary after all.

Bai Qingnian then realized that he was no longer in pain, and he turned to look at Long Qianling.

I know it must have been her who healed my injuries.

Bai Qingnian looked at Long Qianling sitting upright with his legs crossed, exuding indifference and his eyes closed, and felt a strange warmth in her heart.

This is the second person, besides his father, who has been so good to him.

He had promised Senior Lan Li that he would use his sincerity to awaken her and help her escape the abyss of evil, so from now on he would offer his heart with both hands.

He was determined to give her her freedom!

Seemingly sensing Bai Qingnian's gaze, Long Qianling suddenly opened her eyes, her golden eyes meeting his directly.

Bai Qingnian was startled, feeling as if she had been caught red-handed.

Long Qianling simply looked at him quietly for a while, and then closed her eyes again.

Bai Qingnian finally breathed a sigh of relief. His gaze inadvertently fell on the spot where Long Qianling was impaled by the iron chains, a bloody mess.

Bai Qingnian was shocked. Didn't she feel pain?!

Bai Qingnian pursed her lips, stood up, and walked into the woods.

Long Qianling opened her eyes when he lifted his foot, and watched his departing figure for a long time before turning her gaze away.

No demons dare to approach him from here, so he won't be in any danger.

A sharp pain throbbed in her chest, and Long Qianling felt like she was going crazy.

To go release lanterns with him, she actually plucked out her own protective scale. Long Qianling raised her hand and pressed her aching chest, her brows furrowed.

She didn't understand why she was acting so impulsively, nor did she understand why she had such special feelings for Bai Qingnian. This feeling was unfamiliar yet intense, leaving her confused and uneasy.

I don't know when that feeling started, whether it was from our first meeting or from the time we've spent together these past few days.

What she didn't know was that the dragon marriage contract actually had another rule: once they conceived, they would subconsciously show extra affection for their partner and spontaneously care for them.

Therefore, the dragon race has very high standards for choosing a spouse, but Long Qianling knew nothing about this.

Just then, Bai Qingnian returned from the woods, carrying some herbs. He walked to Long Qianling's side, gently knelt down, his eyes filled with concern. He carefully applied the herbs to Long Qianling's wounds, his movements gentle, as if afraid of hurting her.

Long Qianling stared at Bai Qingnian, his heart filled with complex emotions.

Feeling Bai Qingnian's touch, a warmth arose in her heart. She gazed at Bai Qingnian quietly, her eyes filled with his reflection.

After Bai Qingnian finished bandaging his wound, he looked up and met Long Qianling's gaze. He saw Long Qianling staring straight at him, and his heart skipped a beat.

Neither of them spoke, and the atmosphere became somewhat ambiguous. Suddenly, a gust of wind blew by, ruffling Long Qianling's hair. The strands brushed against Bai Qingnian's face, tickling him. He tried to raise his hand to scratch, but Long Qianling grabbed his hand.

Bai Qingnian looked at her with a puzzled expression, while Long Qianling gazed intently at what was behind him.

Bai Qingnian realized that she wasn't looking at him, so he turned around and glanced back.

He froze on the spot after just one glance.

A dark red door suddenly appeared out of thin air not far away, and that door was constantly sucking in everything around it.

“It’s the entrance to the Bloodstained Realm,” Long Qianling said coldly.

Bai Qingnian was terrified. She tightly gripped Long Qianling's arm with both hands and asked in a trembling voice, "Big, big black dragon, will I be sucked in...?"

Long Qianling stared intently at the dark red gate that was getting closer and closer to them.

I can't understand why the entrance to the secret realm would appear here.

"Uncertain," Long Qianling replied.

"Ah..." Bai Qingnian was so frightened that her body was trembling.

That's the Bloodstained Realm, the most dangerous secret realm in the entire demon realm...

I've heard it's fraught with danger inside. If a piece of trash like him gets sucked in, he'll only be doomed.

Just as Bai Qingnian was lost in thought, a powerful suction force came and he was instantly sucked into the doorway.

Long Qianling was startled and tried to reach out to grab him, but it was too late. She watched Bai Qingnian disappear before her eyes, a strange sense of worry welling up in her heart.

Without hesitation, she reached out and plucked her own protective scale once more, throwing it into the seal. With a leap, she entered the large door as well.

On the other side, Bai Qingnian, who had already entered the secret realm, felt dizzy and the world went dark.

When he opened his eyes again, he found himself in an unfamiliar place, surrounded by an eerie atmosphere.

He looked around nervously, his heart filled with fear. Suddenly, he heard a familiar voice...
