"Can you track down that human?"
Shelby shook his head: "We can't track him. There seems to be something on him that's masking his human presence."
“Moreover,” Shelby paused and said, “this man is very strong; even I have no chance of winning against him.”
"Even you, the captain of the Dragon Emperor's guards, have no chance of winning?"
Shelby slowly began, “The dragons have been in this place for far too long, and we have no idea how advanced the technology of the outside world has become.”
"Mr. William, what do you think we should do now?"
William pondered for a moment: "Now the Holy City is full of dragons who have come to celebrate the Dragon Emperor's birthday. Shelby, as the Dragon Emperor's captain of guards, you should stay in the city."
“But…” Shelby opened his mouth to object, but was interrupted by the old man.
"Alright, I'll gather the clan members here later and have them guard the dragon bones for now."
"The Dragon Emperor's birthday is a major event and absolutely cannot be delayed."
Shelby nodded. "On behalf of the Royal Family, I thank Mr. William."
...
After leaving the desert where the dragon bones were located, Xu Fan wandered around, slightly altering his appearance with the help of the yellow sand, and then returned to the city with Sophia.
After entering the city, Xu Fan squatted down in front of Sophia: "Sophia, I'm in trouble right now. It's not safe for you to come with me."
Since the mission in the Dragonbone Tomb is to prevent the ancient dragons from reviving, and now a dragon skeleton has just been lost.
In other words, as long as you go out and guard the area near those skeletons, and try to prevent these people from taking away more dragon bones, then you can prevent the ancient dragon from reviving.
"Tell me where you live, and I'll take you home, okay?"
Sofia shook her head: "I'm not going back."
Xu Fan said gently, "Be good."
Sofia stubbornly shook her head.
Xu Fan hardened his heart, used the system, and suddenly disappeared from the spot.
Sophia's eyes suddenly reddened. She looked around and then ran a few steps in the direction Xu Fan had left, stubbornly calling out.
"elder brother."
The dragons on the street turned around in surprise to see the pretty little girl stumbling and running down the street, calling out "brother" as she ran.
Sophia tried hard to search for Xu Fan's scent in the air.
However, with the blessing of the Yellow Court Sword Scripture, it might not be easy for Xu Fan to fake the aura of the dragon race, but it would be easy for him to conceal his own aura.
Sofia wandered aimlessly through the streets, frantically searching for that figure, but she didn't see Xu Fan again until it got dark.
As darkness fell quickly, Sofia, covered in dust, looked like an abandoned puppy as she slowly walked down the street.
There were no more tears in her eyes, but her face was covered in tear stains.
As night deepened, Sophia seemed to have exhausted all her strength and slumped to the ground.
Just then, raindrops began to fall from the sky.
Is it raining?
Sofia looked up blankly and saw a large black umbrella being held over her head.
"Get up."
Upon seeing Xu Fan, Sophia finally couldn't hold back any longer. She stood up and threw herself into Xu Fan's arms, her voice low and trembling with sobs.
"Brother, I thought you didn't want me anymore."
Xu Fan helplessly rubbed the little girl's head in his arms: "How could that be?"
"But you have to promise me that if you stay by my side, you must behave and obey me."
Sophia held onto Xu Fan tightly and nodded vigorously: "As long as I stay by my brother's side, I will listen to whatever my brother says."
"good."
Having learned from their previous experience at the restaurant, Xu Fan first took Sophia to a hotel, helped her wash the tear stains off her face, and then successfully entered a 24-hour restaurant where Sophia had a meal.
By daybreak, the exhausted Sophia had fallen asleep on Xu Fan's back.
When the city gates opened, Xu Fan successfully led Sophia outside the city and hid her in a place not far from the Dragonbone Desert.
When Sophia woke up, she panicked and struggled to run out. But when she saw Xu Fan walking towards her, a smile appeared on her face.
"Brother, where did you go?"
Xu Fan waved the food in his hand helplessly; "I'll go borrow some food for you."
Xu Fan had already investigated and found that there was a group of dragons not far from here.
Meanwhile, hidden in a place unseen by these dragons, another group of dragons appears to be monitoring these dragons not far from the Dragonbone Desert.
Since they are secretly monitoring us, they probably wouldn't make a fuss if they lost something themselves.
So Xu Fan went to their camp and borrowed some food for Sophia.
Sofia sat on the sand dune, food in her hands, her little legs swinging back and forth, eating heartily while asking indistinctly:
"Brother, what brings you here?"
Xu Fan said with a smile, "Brother is here to wait for someone."
Seeing Sophia's happy expression, Xu Fan sighed and ultimately did not say anything about asking Sophia to leave.
Eight or nine days passed in a flash, and Sophia was already bored, spending her days following Xu Fan around.
"Brother, hasn't the person you're waiting for arrived yet?"
"In a few days, it will be the Dragon Emperor's birthday."
Xu Fan said with a smile, "Let's wait a little longer. If they haven't arrived by the Dragon Emperor's birthday, then we'll go into the city."
Sofia nodded obediently: "I'll do whatever you say, brother."
Just as Xu Fan was beginning to doubt whether he was thinking wrong, a huge roar suddenly came from the Dragonbone Desert.
"Foreign invasion!"
As they spoke, frost, fire, and storms instantly swept across the entire Dragonbone Desert.
Xu Fan took the opportunity to secretly hide and watch from the outside.
Upon seeing that familiar figure, Xu Fan knew he had come to the right place.
"Huang Lintian, he actually came here. It seems that the people who stole the ancient dragon's remains were these cultists."
However, looking at the dragons fighting with Huang Lintian and the others, Xu Fan couldn't help but have another question in his mind.
Their arrival must be to help the dragon race revive those ancient dragons, right?
But why did they fight each other?
Seeing the dragons monitoring the Dragonbone Desert on high alert but not making a move, Xu Fan couldn't help but speculate.
"Could it be that these people are here to help Huang Lintian and the others?"
However, since the enemy is in the open while we are in the shadows, we should wait and see.
