Chapter 565: Chapter 566: Trapped
“With a splash,”
Just when Lin Dong thought he was going to fall to his death off the cliff with Qingye Piaoxue, a wave of cold surged to his heart.
Lin Dong found that he had actually dropped into a rather large pond.
The water in the pond was bone-chillingly cold, and after Lin Dong and Qingye Piaoxue fell into it, they sank for quite a while.
After sinking to a certain depth, the two began to float upward.
At that mont, the flood dragon was closely following them, clearly not willing to let Lin Dong and Qingye Piaoxue go so easily.
Lin Dong saw the approaching flood dragon and hurriedly fled through the water.
Seeing Qingye Piaoxue struggling in the water, he paused for a while.
He had never imagined that soone like Qingye Piaoxue would not know how to swim.
Without ti to think, Lin Dong still grabbed her and flew out of the water with her.
“Boom~~~”
The flood dragon had already plunged into the pond.
Fortunately, Lin Dong dodged in ti; otherwise, he might have lost his life on the spot.
He noticed a cave in the cliff beside the pond.
The entrance to the cave was not very large, about the size of a dog’s hole.
Lin Dong imdiately mobilized his Inner Qi, grabbing Qingye Piaoxue and squeezing into the cave.
“Boom~~”
Just after he and Qingye Piaoxue had just entered the cave, a loud crashing sound ca from the entrance.
It turned out the flood dragon was chasing them and also wanted to enter.
But the entrance was too small, and the flood dragon’s body was too large to fit.
It kept ramming its body against the cave entrance.
Lin Dong quickly moved further inside.
“Boom boom boom~~~”
The flood dragon couldn’t get in and continued to slam its body against the entrance.
Thankfully, the cliff and mountain were large enough that even the flood dragon couldn’t cause it to collapse.
After a while, it did dislodge so boulders that completely blocked the entrance.
“Boom boom boom~~~”
The flood dragon continued to pound on the outside of the cave for about fifteen minutes before it finally quieted down.
Only then did Lin Dong let out a slight sigh of relief.
In his current state, he was no match for the flood dragon. If it had managed to break open the cave, he would have been on a sure path to death.
Looking around, Lin Dong discovered that the cave was quite spacious.
There was a passage that led deeper into the belly of the mountain.
Just to be safe, Lin Dong decided to head further in.
“You pervert, when we were in the air just now, you actually…” Qingye Piaoxue’s voice rose, indignant.
Thinking back to the scene in the air, Lin Dong touched his nose awkwardly.
Lin Dong couldn’t help but glance at Qingye Piaoxue’s body and had to admit that this woman from Cherry Blossom Country was indeed very attractive.
“You’re still looking, believe it or not, I’ll make you the last eunuch in Dragon Country?” Qingye Piaoxue drew her sword from her back and glared angrily at Lin Dong.
Lin Dong quickly backed away and spread his hands, saying,
“Hey, no matter what, I did just save your life, right? If I had simply left you in the pond, you’d likely be the flood dragon’s al by now.”
“Also, we’re trapped in this cave right now; fighting each other is pointless, right? What’s the point of both of us getting hurt?”
Qingye Piaoxue understood all this, but the thought of her body, which had never been touched by a man, being ‘defiled’ by Lin Dong, made her blood boil.
“We should really think about how to get out of this situation,” Lin Dong suggested at this mont.
Qingye Piaoxue snorted back, “That dragon is guarding the cave entrance; going out is seeking death.”
Lin Dong nodded; she was right.
Having picked the Thousand Year Snow Lotus guarded by the flood dragon for so many years, it wouldn’t let them go so easily.
It would naturally wait at the cave entrance, and if they dared to leave, they would be on a sure path to death.
Lin Dong pondered for a mont and then said, “Maybe there’s another way out?”
Having said this, he looked toward the passage.
Then he walked into it.
Qingye Piaoxue gritted her teeth, but in the end, she did not attack Lin Dong and followed behind him.
It seed she didn’t want to fight with Lin Dong to a mutual defeat.
Temporarily putting aside their grudges, she thought escaping was more important.
And so, one after the other, the two moved deeper along the passage.
They did not know how long they had walked when they suddenly saw so light ahead.
“There’s light ahead? Could it be another exit?”
Qingye Piaoxue couldn’t help but say.
Lin Dong did not reply, but continued walking forward.
A few minutes later, Lin Dong could clearly see what was before him.
Before them appeared an underground palace!
The light had been coming from inside this underground palace.
The palace was as large as a soccer field and was furnished with stone stools, stone tables, stone beds, and other items.
Beyond that, lamps were lit on the walls of the underground palace.
Those lamps were fueled by flood dragon oil.
It was said that lamps lit with flood dragon oil could burn for a thousand years.
Seeing the scene before them, both Lin Dong and Qingye Piaoxue were taken aback with surprise.
“Did soone live here in the past?”
Both were greatly shocked.
The person who could live in such a place and use flood dragon oil for lamps, how terrifying must they have been?
It seed they had unwittingly entered an extraordinary place…
