After The Abyss Dragon Woke Up Chapter 65.2

The Dragon Took Him Away (2)

“So, Shi An held up the rcenaries by himself, buying ti for you guys to escape?” Wen Yao asked, sowhat incredulously.

“But, he isn’t….” Halfway through the sentence, Wen Yao realized sothing was wrong and hastily closed her mouth.

“I knew of the rumors circulating outside, but I can guarantee with my honor that they are fake,”

Zhao She said solemnly.

“Shi An is powerful, even more than us. If it weren’t for his family treating him unfairly and persecuting him, he wouldn’t hide his power until now…”

“Besides…” Zhao She gritted his teeth and nodded slowly. “If not for him, we might have all been hostages in the hands of that group of rcenaries. After leaving the cave, we gathered all the trapped people to stop the counterattack. Although we killed so of the rcenaries, we couldn’t break out at all. The surrounding communication has also been cut off, so we were trapped–”

He smacked his thigh hard, his voice slightly choked. “I-I have promised him that I would do my best to return with reinforcent, but…”

Zhao She’s eyes were red and he couldn’t finish his sentence.

Wen Yao pursed her lips, sowhat overwheld by the impact of such a massive amount of information.

She subconsciously twisted her head toward Mu Heng, who had not said a word since a mont ago, and glanced to the side.

–Surely, the person the chief fell for must not be any ordinary person.

Wen Yao withdrew her gaze and said to Zhao She seriously and earnestly, “We knew. We will imdiately organize a rescue team. You can rest assured and recuperate now.”

After finally persuading the injured student to get dical treatnt, Wen Yao looked at Mu Heng.

“Chief, I will organize people at once–”

She didn’t expect Mu Heng to interrupt her, saying, “No need.”

Wen Yao was stunned. “What?”

Mu Heng said, “Shi An is not inside the canyon anymore.”

A look of extre confusion appeared on Wen Yao’s face. “Do you an that you knew about Shi An’s whereabouts?”

Mu Heng raised his eyes. His dark blue eyes were as deep as the abyss,and his voice was low and slightly hoarse, with a bit of biting chill.

“Yes.”

From a while ago, he had been stuck with several unanswered questions.

For example, who had saved him and healed his wounds?

But after Mu Heng woke up, despite his puzzlent, the rage and powerlessness he felt when he lost Shi An took over, making him unable to distract himself from thinking about it.

Nor did he dare to think about it.

… including the kiss that seed to have co from a dream when he was unconscious, not knowing if it was unreal or real.

And now, there was one more question.

The first image Mu Heng had seen after awakening flashed before his eyes.

The giant dragon with its wings spread out in the snowstorm, its tallic scales shining silvery in the snow and wind as if shrouded in a bright glow.

— If the blood ritual had not been completed, why had the dragon appeared?

The answer was on the verge of coming out into the open.

Mu Heng’s eyes were cold and intense, a searing dark fire burning silently in his eyes like a dark blue fla in the abyss.

He said slowly, “The dragon took him away.”

Wen Yao froze. “… The dragon?”

She hesitated for a mont and asked, “The one appearing now and before didn’t seem to be the sa, did they?”

She rembered that the giant dragon that appeared within the Ability Academy was a black dragon with a pitch-black body. At the sa ti, just now, even if it was only a brief glimpse, Wen Yao could still confirm that the dragon that appeared on the foothills was silvery white.

Did it an that two dragons had appeared?

Her heart could not help but sink slowly.

One dragon was already so strong. If there were two dragons, would it be possible for humans to deal with them?

Mu Heng said, “No, it’s the sa.”

Although the color of the scales was different, no matter the shape, the aura, or the feeling it gave him, they were no different from before.

He did not know why the dragon's color had changed, but one thing he was sure of was that there was only this one dragon, unique in the entire continent.

At this point, a Bureau mber hurriedly ca running in from outside the cave.

The rcenary squad had basically been cleared out, the communication equipnt had been restored, and ssages from outside could finally be received within the snowy plains.

He leaned over to Wen Yao’s ear and whispered a few words.

Wen Yao’s face showed a look of horror. “What? The auction house? The dragon has appeared?”

***

Shi An sat on the seat, propping his chin up with his hand in boredom.

Not far away, Black Smoke painstakingly and slowly swallowed the gold and gems inside the auction house’s vault into its stomach.

It looked at Shi An with tears in its eyes. “M-My lord, I can’t eat anymore…”

Shi An said rcilessly, “Keep eating.”

Although his treasure was not found, he could not just return empty-handed.

Therefore, he unceremoniously accepted the other treasures inside the auction house.

Dragons were a greedy race. As long as a treasure ca into sight, even if it were not as precious as the one he once had, he would never let it go.

At this mont, an unusual sound suddenly ca from outside the vault.

Shi An frowned.

Strange, he had sensed no human scent coming after him.

He stood up and walked outside the vault.

He saw a screen that had fallen halfway down the largely destroyed hall not far away, lit up by remote manipulation.

A man with silver hair and blue eyes appeared on the screen.

Although he looked pale, it was clear that his life was in no danger.

Shi An drew a corner of his lips.

He knew that his collection would not die that easily.

He saw Mu Heng within the screen looking over, his sight straight and sharp as if he could penetrate all the entities and spaces between them.

“Lord dragon, good day.”

His voice was very calm, without a half ripple of emotion. “Although we had several brief confrontations before, I believe this is the first attempt for to communicate with you.”

“Regardless, as a human or the only existing dragon slayer, I long to kill you but also to be killed under your claws.”

“This is predestination. No matter what the ending, I will gladly accept it.”

Mu Heng’s eyes narrowed, and his expression hinted at icy hostility.

“But now, I believe you have taken away a very important friend to .”

The lord dragon and Mu Heng’s important friend, Shi An: “…”
