Pissing Off the Dragon! (2)
The flames were so violent that the rocks instantly melted into magma. All the moisture was vaporized, the air floated like stirred ripples, and the poisonous fog dissipated. Half the sky was dyed hellish bloody red.
The Eye of the Abyss held on a little longer.
Its pupils constricted and trembled as if it could feel the fear.
Five seconds later, cobweb-like slits spread from its body and the flames instantly charred it.
It was as if a nuclear bomb had been dropped with the dragon as the center.
Several hectares were flattened and even the abyssal rift was no exception.
The abyss’ steep wall was destroyed and all the abyssal species were turned into ashes before they could escape.
It was like a hurricane-like shock wave spread out in all directions and everywhere was barren.
After an unknown period, the flames gradually extinguished and light that could destroy the world slowly disappeared.
The air still fluctuated in the aftermath of the heat.
A huge piece of rubble was blown away from below in the scorched ruins.
The silver-haired man propped up the longsword in his hand and slowly stood up straight.
He had never been in such a sorry state before.
Bright red and half-clotted blood dripped down from his forehead, blurring his silver-white eyelashes, and he could only barely keep his eyes half-open.
The clothes on his body had been burned beyond recognition, a stream of silver hair was also stained with ash and dust, and the tips of his hair were burned to an ugly black by the flames.
Mu Heng looked around the area.
He almost did not recognize where he was now.
The poisonous abyssal fog completely dissipated, and even the actual steep wall and the straight peak were flattened, leaving only scorched ruins and debris.
Overhead was dim and dark, immersing in the night sky.
In front of him was a dead silent wasteland, without any breath of life. Unawakened for ten thousand years and would also be sleeping for ten thousand years.
But Mu Heng knew that the black-robed man was not dead.
If he were also a member of the Mu family, then he would also have the same resistance to the dragon flame as him.
He wasn’t killed and neither was that black-robed man.
But Mu Heng did not go after him.
–He had more important things to do.
He crawled out of the rubble and debris with difficulty by the power of the long sword.
Mu Heng felt a vague pain in his gut from the impact, two or three ribs were probably broken, and a trace of blood seeped from the corner of his lips that was quickly wiped away.
However, this did not slow down Mu Heng’s pace.
He walked in the direction from which the magic fluctuations came.
The air was filled with the smell of smoke and fire, the sky overhead was black, and beneath his feet was the endlessly spreading wasteland.
Not sure how long had passed.
Finally, Mu Heng came to the heart of the place.
It would not be too much to say that a small asteroid hit this place.
Starting from a clear arc edge, the ground began to sink, presenting a deep crater of several dozen meters with hundreds of meters radius. Unlike the outer edge here, there was no half rubble or ruins in the hole, only deep burn marks on the ground.
Everything was black.
Only a slender white was lying in the center of the pit.
Clean, white, and naked.
Mu Heng stood at the edge of the deep crater, a pair of icy eyes hidden under the half-dried blood stains, looking in that direction with an extremely indifferent and cruel gaze.
The sword made of magic in his palm disappeared.
The man pressed his gloved palm on the hilt of the long sword at his waist slowly and indifferently.
In that instant, the long sword seemed to sense something as well.
The sword’s aura sang.

Shi An was awakened by the sunlight falling on his face.
It was so bright.
The blinding light fell on his eyelids, reflecting the thin eyelids pink.
He frowned and rolled over, burying his head a little deeper.
It seemed that he heard something in his ears.
It was distant and fuzzy.
Shi An spent two seconds thinking about it but could not think of anything.
After being awakened, he couldn’t go back to sleep even if he wanted to.
Shi An lazily stretched his back.
It felt… as if he had slept a long sleep.
There were many images in the dream, but they were all very blurry like color blocks that were broken up and mixed.
The fine eyelashes trembled and the young man slowly opened his eyes.
But speaking of which… where is this place?
Not sure if it was because he had dreamed too long, but everything in front of him seemed strange.
The bright sunlight outside the window spilled down and the fine golden spots fell on the snow-white bed. The air was filled with the pleasant smell of soap. Everything was so peaceful and tranquil.
Where am I?
Shi An blinked in confusion and got up from the bed.
The bones all over his body seemed rattling like a rusty pivot that hadn’t moved in a long time, creaking when he moved.
The quilt slipped off his body, revealing the white and slender shoulders, neck, collarbone, and chest. The texture of the exquisite fabric felt itchy, making Shi An feel a little strange.
He… had no clothes on?
That strange voice sounded again just now.
Jingling, it appeared to come from under the quilt.
Shi An: “…”
He blinked blankly. Some ideas darted through his mind, but he couldn’t find anything when he tried to capture them again.
So he reached up and lifted the covers off of himself.
The young man’s legs were slender and slim, with elegant outlines. The joints appeared pink under the sunshine with a jade-like soft texture.
The ankles were small and delicate, with refined bones.
And the ankle had a silver metal shackle, which seemed to be engraved with some complicated inscription. The chain extended from his ankle to the head of the bed and was firmly locked there. His movements emitted the sound of clanking metal collision, appearing particularly clear and abrupt in the quiet room.
“…”
Shi An was dumbfounded at the spot.
He stared blankly at the shackles on his feet as a chaotic storm whirled through his mind.
