Chapter 241 - Taking the Blame
The roar did not last long before it disappeared.
However, an even more terrifying pressure enveloped the surroundings of the godly mountain!
“Boom!”
There was a deafening sound.
It was as though a huge life form had descended at the top of the mountain, causing it to tremble with the risk of collapsing at any moment!
Any thoughts of escaping by now would simply be a fool’s dream.
Su Zimo looked at the gray robed cultivator. He believed that even if the latter was a Golden Core, he would not be able to escape!
Unhurriedly, the gray robed cultivator pulled out a dark rag from his storage bag.
The Palace Lord had read about the form of a dragon in the ancient records of the clan. But now that he was seeing it in real life, he was still extremely shocked.
The descriptions in the ancient records were less than one percent of what it actually was!
At best, the ancient records could only describe the appearance. However, the unique aura and dominance of a dragon was something that could not be penned down.
If Su Zimo could see this divine dragon right now, he would definitely recall something.
Before entering the primordial ruin, the gray robed cultivator had once said, “I’ve seen a True Dragon before. Even though it was just a scale and half a claw, it was shocking enough! That single scale was bigger than our entire bodies and that claw was longer and sharper than our flying swords!”
No one took those words for real.
However, looking at it now, the divine dragon’s appearance was even superior to what the gray robed cultivator had described!
Without using much strength, the divine dragon sent half of the godly mountain flying, exposing everything within the cave instantly.
The Palace Lord took a single look and blood drained from his face immediately.
Nobody!
The depths of the cave was in a huge mess with a gigantic dragon egg that was smashed into pieces. The liquid within disappeared and even the eggshells were licked cleanly.
But, there was nobody at all!
To be precise, there was only a single person – him.
A dragon egg was eaten by someone.
Other than the divine dragon who had just arrived, the only person left in the scene was him.
There was no way of explaining himself!
The Palace Lord was a little stunned – this was completely different from what he had imagined.
When the divine dragon caught sight of the eggshells on the floor, an endless fury and wrath surged in its eyes, almost spewing out with fire.
Instantly, the Palace Lord felt a chilling killing intent gushing towards him!
“N-no, it’s not me!”
The Palace Lord was completely flustered.
As someone at Void Reversion realm with the title of Dao Being, there was almost no one in the Great Zhou Dynasty who could be a match for him. Even so, against an adult dragon, the odds were completely stacked against him!
The gray robed cultivator hidden in a corner was a little stunned as well.
How was there someone else as well?
“That person is quite skillful. He must be a professional at taking the blame. To think that he would rush over at a time like this with such an accurate timing…” The gray robed cultivator lamented internally.
The two of them hid in the corner motionlessly, not even daring to lift the rag to check out the situation outside.
However, when he heard the commotion outside, Su Zimo could roughly guess what was going on.
The person who spoke earlier was probably the pursuer hunting him down!
Su Zimo truly wanted to lift the rag up and check out that person’s appearance; he was also curious about what the primordial life form that had appeared was.
But, he remained rational and endured it.
At a time as such, any slight movement could expose the both of them!
