Seeing this, I felt a little sorry for her. I looked back at the girl, whose eyes remained calm, as if she really wanted to fry Song Chao to death.
Seeing this, my fingers twitched slightly, and I felt a pang of worry for Song Chao. At the same time, I used my third eye to take a look at Song Chao.
Unfortunately, I didn't see any malice or special energy in Song Chao. In other words, Song Chao should be innocent.
Just then, the sky became covered with dark clouds and turned quite gloomy in an instant.
"Brother, don't be soft-hearted at all. If you want to accomplish something difficult, you have to make certain sacrifices. Sometimes, it's yourself who has to sacrifice, and sometimes it's someone else!"
My brother should know this!
Just as I was watching with great anxiety, the girl spoke again, whispering in my ear.
I'm a bit lost right now. Ever since I met the girl yesterday, I understand her even less.
Every time a new theory emerges, the girl manages to perfectly refute it. I have absolutely no idea what the girl means now.
"Brother, I beg you, no matter what happens next, you must remain calm and only take action when I remind you!"
The girl suddenly sent me a telepathic message.
I was stunned, because the girl had always been the one to tell me directly what was on her mind.
If she wouldn't choose this method of transmitting sound, then there are only two possibilities. The first possibility is that the girl doesn't want others to know, such as the two guardians beside her.
The second possibility is that the voice wasn't actually coming from the girl, but rather someone impersonating her, which is why this situation occurred.
Just as I began to have doubts, the girl turned her head and I saw that her eyes were a little wet, as if she was really pleading with me. I didn't say anything, but just gave the girl a reassuring look.
"Master, get ready, we're in for a big job today!"
Suddenly, Lei Jijian spoke to me, and I could tell from his voice that he was extremely excited.
I quickly asked Lei Jijian what kind of big deal it was, and Lei Jijian told me that he sensed that another force had invaded this space.
Although it only appeared for a moment before perfectly hiding itself, it was still caught by the lightning sword.
"Other forces? What do you mean? Humans, or forces like yours?"
I couldn't help but ask, this resort is really getting more and more interesting.
The successive forces mixed together, creating a bit of chaos.
Lei Jijian said he didn't know anything about it; he only knew that the power was quite delicious, and the last time that power appeared was right next to Song Chao.
After listening, I think I understand why the girl wanted to use Song Chao as a sacrifice.
It's less of a sacrifice and more of a bait!
These forces, including the girl, wanted to force what was behind Song Chao to come out by throwing him into a vat of boiling oil.
I gasped. Sure enough, everyone, human or ghost, has a powerful background.
I had a feeling from the beginning that Song Chao wasn't as simple as he seemed, and I was right.
The moment this thought crossed my mind, the girl gave me a look of affirmation.
I turned my gaze downwards to the other side of the large cauldron, and sure enough, several people wearing ox-head and horse-face masks put shackles on Song Chao.
"The time has come! The time has come!"
The two guardians shouted loudly, and the soldiers below, also trying to please the girl, all said the same thing, making the overall atmosphere quite magnificent.
I stared at Song Chao and noticed that his legs had gone weak. Before he could even catch his breath, the demons threw him into the oil cauldron.
I was a little reluctant to watch, but the lightning sword prepared me.
Sure enough, I found that when Song Chao went into the oil pan, there was absolutely no reaction.
The sizzling oil in the pan now couldn't cause Song Chao the slightest harm.
What's going on?!
When I saw this, I also felt quite strange; it shouldn't be like this!
The scalding temperature was so intense that if Song Chao had gone down there, he would have been severely injured, if not killed. But Song Chao didn't react at all, which was truly beyond my expectations.
The lightning sword continued to remind me to be fully prepared. I realized that there must be some powerful force in the oil pot to protect Song Chao.
"Finally out! It went much more smoothly than I expected!"
The girl calmly looked down, and I saw ruthlessness and indifference in her eyes. Just one look from her made me tremble. The sense of oppression was indeed quite great.
"Brother, what do you think is down there?"
The girl tilted her head and began to ask questions, her voice turning somewhat cold. I knew that if I made a mistake this time, it might be the end for me.
I asked Lei Jijian if he recognized it, but to my surprise, he just backed down and told me that he could only determine that the contents inside were highly nutritious.
But as for anything else, I don't know.
"It's a dragon!"
I gave an answer almost inexplicably, because I noticed that there was a little more moisture in the air around me when we were about to throw Song Chao into the frying pan.
Moreover, just a moment ago the sky was clear and blue, but now it's covered in dark clouds. The only thing I can think of in this scene is a dragon.
Most importantly, the scalding hot oil did not cause any harm; I remember some mythological novels describing this scene.
There's usually an ice dragon protecting it from below.
"A dragon? It's actually a dragon!"
Upon hearing the word "dragon," the girl's expression became excited, and she kept licking her tongue.
That state gave me the creeps.
This girl is also a foodie.
It seems they've become interested in dragons.
"What, you don't know?"
I was dumbfounded. It seemed the girl didn't know what was inside. I thought she was testing me.
The girl shook her head seriously, saying she didn't know what was inside; only she could predict what it contained, and told me to be prepared.
Damn it! So you don't even know what it is, and you expect me to guess? Is that right?!
The girl then told me to get ready quickly and kill that guy inside as fast as possible!
When I heard this, my body trembled slightly, and my expression became excited.
Although it's a rather bold idea, the crazy ideas naturally come with even more worthy rewards.
I gripped the scepter tightly, my eyes fixed on the giant bronze cauldron below.
This time, I will slay the dragon!
