Being robbed and beaten to this extent, Jiaolong was filled with helplessness.
But now his life is in their hands, and he has no room to struggle at all.
He took a deep breath and spat out a large pile of rare and precious treasures from his fairy space, as well as a small mountain of snake skin that he had shed.
Then she closed her eyes and never looked at Lu Mengmeng again.
He said dejectedly, "Everything's here, grab it and leave!"
Xiao Zhenyu's gaze swept over the pile of things on the ground, but he didn't find what he was looking for.
As arrogant as this dragon, he frowned and said, "How do we know if you've taken everything out?"
"You were a powerful ruler, and this is all you've ever accumulated in your life?"
As soon as he finished speaking, all the demons, including Jiaolong, Lu Mengmeng, and the Tao siblings, looked at Xiao Zhenyu with strange eyes.
Xiao Zhenyu immediately sensed that something was wrong.
Hesitantly, he asked, "Did I say something wrong?"
The dragon, its face contorted with rage, gritted its teeth and said, "Can you please stop insulting demons?"
Lu Mengmeng nodded in agreement.
"He wouldn't lie to me, you're overthinking it."
Fairies aren't as cunning as humans, especially powerful fairies!
Even the most wicked demons wouldn't stoop to doing such a thing!
Seeing that Xiao Zhenyu still looked unconvinced, Tao Xing quickly explained to him, "Fairies are different from humans."
They are confident in their status and generally do not deceive.
In particular, they would not deceive demons.
The agreement between the monsters is like their reputation; they will never break it.
Even if it is unavoidable to violate the agreement, compensation will be made in other ways.
Some would even risk their lives rather than break their promise.
This is the glory of all demons, and also the bottom line for the great demons.
To be honest, what you're saying is a bit of an insult to demons.
If it weren't for Pi Xiuxiu's imposing presence, that dragon would probably have already rushed over and bitten him to death.
Xiao Zhenyu opened his mouth, but didn't say anything.
If Jiao said it, he definitely wouldn't believe it.
But if all three fairies on his side say so, what can he do?
In short, I find it incredibly unbelievable.
They were also unwilling to give up until they found the item.
However, given his weak strength, judging from Pi Xiuxiu's demeanor, he wouldn't force her.
He could only look for other methods.
Lu Haotian did not participate in the argument.
He simply fell into deep thought.
It seems their little devil is a bit mischievous and can be quite troublesome.
But she never broke the promise she made to him.
She once said that she would take care of herself for 20 years. Could that be considered a kind of agreement?
Under the covetous gazes of the Tao siblings and Xiao Zhenyu, Lu Mengmeng remained calm and collected everything into her personal space.
She hunted down the dragon herself, how could she possibly share her spoils with others?
It's not that she's stingy, it's that she has tiny, tiny babies to raise!
Being a parent is so difficult!
After clearing out the snake's den, the group returned to the Weak Water.
Lu Mengmeng pulled a snakeskin from her spatial storage and threw it onto the calm lake.
Just as the dragon had said.
The skin he shed could actually float on the Weak Water!
Tao Yue carefully jumped onto the snakeskin, then bounced around a few times, discovering that the snakeskin floated steadily on the water.
It showed no signs of sinking at all.
His face immediately lit up with joy.
"It really works!"
"We can go to Phoenix Island to catch phoenixes now!"
Without further ado, the group stepped onto the snakeskin.
Lu Mengmeng took out a few more snakeskins, and everyone took one, using the snakeskins under their feet as small rafts to paddle forward.
Although the snakeskin can float on the Weak Water, it is clear that using it as a paddle is not very efficient.
After struggling for more than an hour, the group had only managed to paddle a dozen meters.
Tao Yue looked utterly dejected.
He wailed, "Isn't there any other way?"
The island in front was still just a small black dot.
If we just row across like this, how long will it take?
If any monsters appear along the way, they might attack us again.
"Aren't we all going to be completely finished together?"
"Shut up!" Tao Xing snapped at her sister.
Can't you say something nice every day?
He saw that his sister was not of the Taotie bloodline at all, but definitely of the crow bloodline!
Otherwise, why would she be so talkative?!
Xiao Zhenyu also sighed.
"Probably not."
Things can fly over the water, but they can't float on the bottom either.
How could there possibly be any random monsters?
They want to attack us too…
Before he could finish his sentence, he was quickly stopped.
Suddenly, a large cluster of flames appeared out of nowhere and shot directly at his face.
Xiao Zhenyu was immediately alarmed and hurriedly turned his head to avoid the flames.
He looked angrily in the direction from which the flames were coming.
Then I saw a fist-sized red ball of fur standing on a large red feather that was over 1 meter long.
Zhang Qi hopped back and forth on her little wings, chirping incessantly. Her smugness was evident.
Xiao Zhenyu: ...
Upon seeing the red ball of fur, his initial anger vanished as if it had been punctured.
Somewhat uncertainly, he asked, "This is... a little phoenix?"
