The deeper they went, the more branching paths they encountered in the cave. Coupled with the complete darkness, it would have been difficult to find their way without the voice guiding them.
After walking for a while, they finally arrived at the source of the sound. They looked at each other, and Tu Er took the lead, leading Xu Feng and the other demons inside.
Tu Er was shocked by the sight before him when he entered. A huge black dragon had its limbs bound, a huge gash in its chest, and its protective scales had been forcibly pulled out. The black dragon lay on the ground, barely alive.
"Tu Er, what's the situation inside?"
Hua called out to Tu Er as she walked, but received no reply for a long time. She called again, "Tu Er!"
"Ah, what's wrong?" Tu Er turned around and looked at the flowers as if waking from a dream.
"I'm asking you a question, why are you so engrossed? You can't even hear me talking to you!"
Having already reached the cave entrance, Hua was too lazy to repeat herself and simply stepped inside, pushing aside the demons blocking her way.
"What are you looking at...?" Hua's voice suddenly stopped. There was actually a black dragon imprisoned in the Crimson Rock Cave of the Primordial Chaos Secret Realm? Apart from the wound on its chest, the black dragon was covered in wounds all over its body!
Hua frowned deeply. The dragon race possessed powerful bloodline strength and a strong sense of community. Who on earth could have imprisoned a giant dragon in this place without a sound? And cruelly taken away its protective scale?
Chu Yu and Gu Xi also saw the scene before them, and even Chu Yu was slightly surprised!
"Does this black dragon have some deep-seated grudge against someone? Or is it utterly wicked?" Hua asked Chu Yu softly.
Don't be fooled by Hua's swift and decisive actions when she dealt with the Black Knight, which showed no hesitation or fear. That was because the Black Knight deserved his fate. However, the current situation with the Black Dragon still made Hua feel slightly uneasy. Who could be so cruel?
Removing the heart-protecting scales is no different from skinning and dismembering a dragon, and even more painful! Dragons are treasures from head to toe, and their heart-protecting scales are especially precious. Without them, it's like handing your lifeline to someone else!
Chu Yu stood beside Hua, looking at the black dragon that was barely breathing, his eyes narrowing slightly. "Liao Liao, sometimes it doesn't mean you're wrong just because someone hurts you. Some people are born evil!"
Chu Yu did not sense any karmic obstacles from the black dragon, which meant that the little black dragon had not yet been tainted by any bloodshed.
The black dragon looked at them surrounding him and let out a low growl. It had almost exhausted all its strength in luring Chu Yu and the others here, and the sound it made now sounded like a final, painful groan.
“Little Black Dragon, you lured us here so we could rescue you, right?” Hua stepped forward, looked into the little black dragon’s eyes, and asked it.
"Roar!" The little black dragon let out another low roar. Its cultivation was almost exhausted, and it could no longer speak. It could only use a soft voice to tell the flower in front of it.
"Then we'll ask you a question. If it's yes, nod your head; if it's no, shake your head, okay?" Hua tried to communicate with the black dragon.
Fortunately, the black dragon understood and nodded.
I'm very satisfied with the price.
"Alright, now let's ask you, are you innocent in being trapped here?" The flower's large eyes appeared exceptionally small against the black dragon's bell-like eyes, but...
The black dragon looked at the woman before it; her eyes were clear and bright. Its intuition told it that the woman before it was someone it could trust.
Under the gaze of Hua's big, watery eyes, he nodded his large head.
"Okay, I believe you. We can get you out now, but you must tell us the whole story afterward, okay?" Hua didn't want to be left confused, so she made a three-point agreement with Heilong first.
The little black dragon looked at the flower and nodded its big head again.
"Okay," Hua stepped back a few paces, returning to Chu Yu's side. She skillfully took the Compassionate Sword from Chu Yu's hand, gesturing for Gu Xi and Tu Er to step back. Then, she channeled her magic into the Compassionate Sword and forcefully slashed at the iron chain on one of the little black dragon's claws. However, with one strike...
Hua saw that the Mercy Sword had only left a shallow mark on the iron chain.
Hua looked at the Merciful Sword in her hand with suspicion. What was going on? While Hua was still wondering, Chu Yu walked over and took the Merciful Sword from her hand.
"Alright, this is a specially made dragon-trapping chain, designed specifically to deal with dragons. Step back a bit, be careful not to get hurt."
After handing the Sword of Compassion to Chu Yu, Hua obediently stepped back a few paces. Chu Yu saw Hua stand beside Gu Xi, a strange emotion flickering in his eyes...
The Sword of Compassion shone brightly in Chu Yu's hands. With a powerful strike, Chu Yu slashed at the iron chains, which snapped on one side. Then, with three more swift strikes, the chains imprisoning the black dragon finally broke completely.
Tears welled in the little black dragon's large, copper-bell-like eyes; it was finally free...
Then, it transformed into a small boy, leaving them somewhat bewildered as they watched the enormous creature suddenly turn into a child...
After being freed, the little black dragon immediately ran to Hua and said, "Sister, thank you for saving A-Lian." After saying that, he turned his little head to look at Chu Yu and said timidly, "Thank you, big brother, for saving A-Lian."
A-Lian was a little afraid of Chu Yu. Even though Chu Yu had just saved him, he still didn't dare to get close to her. He held onto Hua's clothes tightly with his little hands. "This older sister is so nice," A-Lian thought, looking up at Hua and grinning with his little white teeth.
Hua looked at his fair and tender little face and couldn't help but pinch it. Although he wasn't very fleshy, his cheeks were still quite soft...
Hua touched it for quite a while, which made Tu Er and the others next to him frown.
Finally, Tu Er couldn't help but speak up: "It's all ruined! You've almost distorted A-Lian's face!"
Hua realized after hearing this that she had been touching her hair for a while, and awkwardly let go of her hand, then touched her braid with embarrassment.
Ah Lian's face was finally freed. She rubbed her little face and then said to the flower, "Sister, it's okay, you can pinch Ah Lian's face as much as you want."
After saying that, she moved her face closer to Hua's hand. Ah Lian's words made Hua even more embarrassed. Seeing Tu Er and the others looking at her with a half-smile, she suddenly felt a little flustered.
"Who imprisoned you here?" Chu Yu spoke up in time to ease Hua's embarrassment, and Hua immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
