Chapter 1969: Endless Yearning (1)

It had to be said that Shen Yanxiao’s acuity in some aspects was in the negatives…

If she wanted to detect Zhanye’s thoughts, she would probably have to wait until the sea dried up and the stones rotted.

In the distant Hidden Dragon Continent, a proud and aloof figure stood at the peak of a mountain. His golden eyes narrowed as he looked at the boundless sea.

Below the mountain peak, the red-clad Vermilion Bird looked up at the figure with a complicated expression.

“I say, he… how long will he stay up there?” The Dragon God crossed his arms over his chest and looked up at Xiu who had been standing on the top of the mountain for three hours.

“Doesn’t he feel bored doing this every day?” The Dragon God could not understand Xiu’s thoughts. After the accident in the Dragon Cemetery that day, Long Yan was instantly killed by Xiu. The dragons under Long Yan were in a mess. All the undeads in the Hidden Dragon Continent mysteriously disappeared. Xiu and Vermilion Bird returned, but the others did not see Shen Yanxiao.

Shen Yu and Wen Ya went forward to ask, but they only received silence.

Soon after, Xiu asked the Dragon God and Doudou to launch a crusade against the rebellious dragons. The dragons in the North came out in full strength. Under the leadership of the Dragon God, it only took half a month to suppress all the rebellious dragons. The Hidden Dragon Continent finally ushered in the peace that they had been looking forward to. The golden dragons who returned to various parts of the Hidden Dragon Continent found their own territory and led their companions to build their new nests.

The Dragon race supported the Dragon God to regain the position of Dragon King, but was rejected by the Dragon God. He pushed Doudou to the position of Dragon King. As for him? He chose freedom.

Everything seemed to have returned to normal, but Xiu had become strange.

Shen Yanxiao’s disappearance had worried many people. Vermilion Bird finally told Shen Yu and the others that Shen Yanxiao was probably brought back to the Howling Abyss by the Undead Lord. Hearing this, Shen Yu and the others immediately prepared to set off, but were stopped by Xiu.

“She’s very safe.” Xiu only said this one sentence and said nothing more. Every day after that, Xiu would stand on this mountain peak and look into the distance. The Dragon God knew that Xiu was looking in the direction of the Howling Abyss.

“Since you miss her so much, why don’t you go and find her?” The Dragon God frowned. God knew that since Shen Yanxiao disappeared, Xiu, as a soul, had lost his temporary residence, so much so that he had directly occupied his Dragon King’s Decree. Although the Dragon God had now integrated with his original mortal body, he always had the Dragon King’s Decree on him. At the thought of his mortal enemy living in the Dragon King’s Decree, he had the urge to die.

“He has signed a life-and-death contract with Master. As long as Master is still alive, he will be able to sense some weak information. Lord Xiu said that the undead blood in Master’s body has awakened. Now, there is no place more suitable for her to live than the Howling Abyss. If we were to look for her now, our aura would immediately attract the attention of the Undead Lord. At that time, I’m afraid it would bring harm to Master,” Vermilion Bird said in a low voice. Shen Yanxiao’s departure had almost driven him crazy. If not for Xiu’s obstruction, he would have already set off for the Howling Abyss.

However, Xiu’s words made sense. Shen Yanxiao should be an undead right now. Even if they found her in the Howling Abyss, with the flame aura and divine aura on their bodies, it would soon cause a commotion among the undeads. At that time, it would be very difficult for Shen Yanxiao to undo the undead seal in the Howling Abyss.
