Ji Fengyan’s sudden appearance stopped the fierce bunch of youths dead in their tracks.
Before they could recover their senses, the giant dragon had also turned around to look at the group of dazed humans standing by his butt. He held a look of utter disdain.
Stupid humans.
The jaws of all the youths dropped to the floor when they saw the massive dragon head. A tingling sensation spread across everyone’s body as they stayed rooted to the ground. Under the dragon’s imposing gaze, even twitching a little finger was impossible.
“An… ancient… dra… dragon…”
Completely stunned, the youths could only continue staring dumbfounded. This was something that had only existed in legends.
Ancient dragons had once lived eons ago and were the rarest sight of anything in this world. The Kingdom of the Sacred Dragon had become a superpower solely because of the existence of an ancient dragon. That was also the last time anyone had heard of the existence of these magnificent beasts. Thereafter, this great, ferocious creature had been relegated to appearing only in legends.
No one had ever expected that they could see a real-life, living, breathing ancient dragon!
The giant dragon was extremely satisfied with the fear and respect that this bunch of humans was showing it. It glanced complacently at Ji Fengyan.
Look, this was the right attitude humans should adopt when in my mighty presence!
Little girl, you should learn from them.
Ji Fengyan, “…”
She had no inclination to know just what this giant dragon was feeling so smug about.
“What are you all doing back here?” Having just finished her negotiations with that dragon, Ji Fengyan was preparing to catch up with the gang. Who knew they had actually turned back.
At Ji Fengyan’s query, everyone abruptly came to their senses However, they kept sneaking glances at the dragon’s majestic body with reverent eyes.
“We… didn’t want to leave you behind… so… we came back.” The youth from the red team scratched his head in awkwardness.
There was not a single demon in sight. They had been worried for nothing. Ji Fengyan did not need their help at all. Moreover… she seemed to be on friendly terms with this ancient dragon…
Everybody felt that Ji Fengyan had already surpassed all expectations. Powerful and mysterious. They would beat up anyone who claimed she was a demon.
Ji Fengyan was astounded.
Scanning this bunch of exhausted youths, some of them were trembling from the effort of staying upright.
However…
They had actually chosen to turn back.
Somehow, Ji Fengyan felt her heart soften. Looking at this bunch of bumbling rascals, she broke out in a genuine smile.
“So stupid.”
The youths smiled sheepishly.
Ji Fengyan rapped against the giant dragon’s hard scales.
“We have already agreed on this. Kindly fetch us out of the forest.”
The dragon harrumphed and raised its head arrogantly. Nevertheless, its tail revealed its inner thoughts, being compliantly drooped upon the ground.
Following the dragon’s tail, Ji Fengyan clambered onto its back. She waved at the dumbstruck youths.
“What are you all still standing there for? Come on up.”
“…” Everybody stared incredulously, not daring to believe what they had just heard.
Up…
Up what…
The giant dragon harrumphed impatiently again.
