Chapter 244 - Escape
Chapter 244: Escape
Towards Su Zimo, the gray robed cultivator bore extreme resentment the entire time.
If not for this person, he would have long escaped unscathed after stealing the dragon’s egg. In the future, he would have nurtured a divine dragon – how glorious would that be?
But now, not only was the dragon’s egg gone, even the most precious and rarest treasure in his possession, the Minor Transference Talisman, was taken out!
‘This is a huge loss!”
The gray robed cultivator cursed internally. After crushing the Minor Transference Talisman, his first instinct was to send Su Zimo flying with a kick!
He was vengeful!
Why else would he have landed in such a sorry state if not for that green-robed cultivator?
However, when he sensed the change in Su Zimo alongside Night Spirit’s gaze, the gray robed cultivator changed his mind at the last minute.
Thud! Thud!
The cultivators that were standing all knelt down.
Under the boundless might of the dragon, the thousands of cultivators trembled with pale faces in silence.
The cultivator who said that he was going to take down the beast was already scared out of his wits, peeing and shitting on the spot. Kneeling on the ground, he kowtowed profusely.
“Roar!”
The divine dragon roared into the sky.
Poof! Poof! Poof!
Outside the primordial forest, thousands of cultivators exploded, turning into a bloody mist of flesh and sludge as they died on the spot!
The cultivators who left earlier were shocked when they saw the scene from afar.
It was too tragic!
Several thousand cultivators, including Golden Cores, could not even withstand the howl of a divine dragon!
In the blink of an eye, the area outside the primordial forest turned into an Asura hell with corpses strewn all over and rivers of blood.
The divine dragon hated those cultivators to the core.
To it, those people were no different from the two who had escaped.
After taking a closer look, the divine dragon soared into the skies and flew above the nine heavens with a murderous killing intent. Speeding into the distance, it disappeared into the skies above the primordial ruin before long.
…
It was only until then that the Palace Lord let out a heave of relief.
He had survived?
Lying on the ground, everything felt surreal and the Palace Lord had a dazed expression.
Fortunately, the divine dragon chose to leave in the end. Otherwise, he was dead for sure!
Standing up with much difficulty, the Palace Lord clutched his blood-colored bone staff and trawled his immensely injured body to cross the sea of bones, arriving before the primordial forest once more.
“Master!”
The Blood Crow King had been waiting for a long time. When he saw the terrible state the Palace Lord was in, his expression changed as he hurriedly rushed up to support the latter.
“What’s going on? How did this happen?” The Blood Crow King was a little lost.
Gritting his teeth, the Palace Lord clenched his teeth, revealing an endless amount of hatred in his eyes as he trembled in rage.
At this moment, he was finally regaining his senses.
Right from the beginning, this chase was already part of Su Zimo’s trap.
Not only did he fail to kill that lad personally, he nearly died – it was a complete failure!
The injuries on his body were immense and he would require several decades of recuperation to recover.
“Su Zimo, fufufu… you must live well. Don’t let anything happen to you. The moment I reappear, that will be the time for you to die!”
The Palace Lord’s expression was grim as he let out a series of laughter with a vicious gaze.
The Blood Crow King stood at the side, not daring to say anything.
A long while later, the Palace Lord took a deep breath of air and said in a low voice, “Let’s go! Back to Black Crow Mountain!”
“Master, it’s going to be hard for us to cross this primordial forest given your serious injuries.”
“Call all of your clansmen here! Even if those blood crows have to die here, they have to make a path for me to get out!”
After a moment of silence, the Blood Crow King nodded. “Understood.”
