"Young Master Hua, is there really no other way down?" Nangong Ruichen couldn't help but ask again, even though he knew the result would be the same.
“Ruichen, I have already sent people to investigate along the coast. No one knows how deep the Bottomless Cliff is, and it is shrouded in fog all year round, making it impossible to determine its location. We have also checked all the places along the coast in the same direction as the Bottomless Cliff, and there is no way to get to the Bottomless Cliff.”
Hua Nongying also looked helpless. The people of Lingxian Island had lived here for hundreds of years, and the only place they couldn't reach was this bottomless cliff. Moreover, no one knew the exact location of the other side. Now, they could only rely on a miracle. Yan'er was not an ordinary person, and she would definitely not do it easily... Hua Nongying dared not think about that word.
"Oh dear! Fei'er! How could you be so foolish! Why did you jump down with me! How am I supposed to live with you now!" Upon hearing this, Nanman Ning burst into tears and screams.
"Madam, please calm down for a while. Fei'er will be fine. With Fei'er's cultivation, even if she falls into an abyss, she will be alright as long as she has a foothold." Dongfang Shuo couldn't stand Nan Manying's wailing and scolded her, which was to comfort Nan Manying and also to comfort himself.
"Lord of the City, how can I not be anxious? Fei'er is my only son! If something happens to Fei'er, how am I supposed to live!" Nan Man Ning didn't care who the other party was at this moment. She hurriedly shouted back at Dongfang Shuo. Even if Dongfang Shuo was angry at this moment, he couldn't take her seriously. He could only flick his sleeves and stand aside. At this moment, no one spoke. Everyone felt the same sadness...
Led by the man in black, Dongfang Yifei experienced countless scenes. He saw the man in black take a little boy who looked exactly like him when he was a child as his apprentice. He saw the boy's life and the scene of his death. This immersive feeling was just like his real life, making him unable to help but suspect that the little boy was himself.
Finally, Dongfang Yifei arrived at a cave with a huge, steep rock at its entrance. Upon entering, the cave was gloomy and eerie, like a demon's lair, inspiring fear in all who looked upon it.
Dongfang Yifei only wanted to explore the cave alone, so he entered cautiously and warily. Suddenly, a cool breeze hit him, which invigorated him.
Continuing deeper, the cave was filled with jagged rocks, all sorts of strange stones piled up naturally, winding and eerie, just like "hell." The cave was sometimes wide and sometimes narrow, and Dongfang Yifei almost bumped his head several times.
Suddenly, a howl caught Dongfang Yifei's attention. He recognized the voice; it belonged to the black dragon beside the man in black.
Dongfang Yifei quickened his pace and walked inside.
Just as Dongfang Yifei had predicted, the dragon inside was indeed the Azure Dragon.
Dongfang Yifei was stunned for a moment, unable to tell whether he was inside the barrier or in reality. He saw the Azure Dragon twisting its body and letting out roars as it saw Dongfang Yifei enter. Its bright eyes were fixed on Dongfang Yifei.
A moment later, the black dragon stretched its claws toward Dongfang Yifei again.
Dongfang Yifei stared wide-eyed at the black dragon in astonishment. He had just witnessed this scene before. What did the black dragon mean by this?
Dongfang Yifei tried to reach out and touch the black dragon's claw. To his astonishment, he touched a real dragon claw.
"Ah!" Dongfang Yifei was overjoyed. Owning a divine beast had always been his dream, but he had never been able to form a contract with a suitable one. Now, the black dragon's actions clearly showed that it wanted to form a contract with him. How could he not be excited?
"Do you want to form a contract with me?" Dongfang Yifei asked.
The black dragon nodded, and Dongfang Yifei smiled, forcing out a drop of blood without hesitation and dripping it into the black dragon's brow. Instantly, the contract was successful. Dongfang Yifei withdrew his hand and looked at the black dragon with satisfaction. Was this the unexpected gain that Yan'er had mentioned? She was right after all; there really was an unexpected gain in this cave.
Thinking of Nangong Ziyan, Dongfang Yifei felt a little anxious. He wondered how she was doing. Although he didn't understand how he had entered this barrier or how he could form a contract with the black dragon, he knew that while there were many things in the world that could be sought, fate was the hardest to find.
"Greetings, Master." The black dragon instantly transformed into human form. Dressed in black, he was handsome, but his eyes were somewhat gloomy. He knelt on one knee in front of Dongfang Yifei and respectfully greeted him.
"Good! Excellent, Black Dragon. With you by my side from now on, you'll be like my right-hand man. Get up!" Dongfang Yifei had never been so happy in his life. He also had the opportunity to form a contract with a divine beast.
"I am willing to serve my master with utmost loyalty," the black dragon replied respectfully, a cold smile playing on his lips. Azure Dragon, he finally had another chance to kill him.
"Good!" This was exactly what Dongfang Yifei wanted to hear. What he lacked most was a loyal person. Although Bu Zhong was loyal, he wasn't very bright. But the divine beast was different; sometimes its thoughts were even smarter than those of humans.
"By the way, Black Dragon, do you know where this place is? Who is that man in black, and why did he lead me here?" Dongfang Yifei knew that Black Dragon definitely knew the answers he wanted to know.
“Master, that was your master, and also the Black Dragon’s former master. But after you met him, you not only saved him, but also took him as your disciple. The Black Dragon was also your contracted divine beast.”
Black Dragon gave a simple account, but he didn't look into Dongfang Yifei's eyes while speaking. Dongfang Yifei didn't mind and believed Black Dragon's words without a doubt. He only thought of one thing: Black Dragon must be talking about his past life.
"By the way, Master, there are some things left behind by the old master. He said that one day you would return here, so the black dragon has been guarding this place all these years, waiting for you to come and retrieve them."
