Chapter 236: 149: The Way to Save Yan Yan! The Villain Suo Lun!_3
And just now, in the underground chamber, Suo Lun had already asked Yao Xing whether Yan Yan could be revived, to which Yao Xing gave a definitive negative response.
Inside his body, the Guardian Wraith of the Dragon Seal Stele was entrenched. Unless Yan Yan was killed, along with the Guardian Wraith, causing it to turn into a mighty force of dragon power and spiritual power, only then could Yao Xing devour it.
But killing either Yan Yan or the Guardian Wraith was completely impossible.
...
"Yao Xing, tell me, is there any way in the world to save Yan Yan, any method will do." Suo Lun asked.
After a moment of silence, Yao Xing said, "Unless the physical body of the Guardian Wraith itself could be found, it would leave Yan Yan’s body and return to its own."
"Where is the physical body of the Guardian Wraith? Is it in the Demon Mountain Range? Near the Dragon Seal Stele?" Suo Lun asked.
"Who knows how many tens of thousands of years have passed, the physical body of the Guardian Wraith has long since turned to ash," Yao Xing replied.
Suo Lun said, "Yao Xing, I have come to understand how you speak; there must be a second way to save Yan Yan, right?"
Yao Xing was silent for a moment, then said, "Yes, if we find the second Ancient Dragon Seal Relic, this Guardian Wraith will immediately leave Yan Yan’s body and enter the new Dragon Seal Relic to continue its protective mission."
Overjoyed, Suo Lun said, "Then, where is the second Dragon Seal Stele?"
"Actually, this relic is not called the Dragon Seal Stele or the Ancient Dragon Seal Rubbing, but the Dragon Mark Remains! It doesn’t have to be a stele; it could take other forms, such as a sword, a sculpture, and so on. These are the energy signatures left by the ancient dragons in this world, containing immensely powerful energies and secrets," Yao Xing explained.
"Then tell me, where is the second Dragon Mark Remains? You must know, even your previous host went searching for it," Suo Lun pressed.
After a long pause, Yao Xing said, "Master, I do roughly know where the second Dragon Mark Remains is located. I was indeed prepared to tell you at the right moment, as the Dragon Mark Remains would bring you tremendous power boosts. Yan Shuang is proof of that. But right now, your cultivation is too weak, and that place is too dangerous. Sending you now would be sending you to almost certain death."
The Dragon Mark Remains are the greatest blessing the ancient dragons bestowed upon this world.
Anyone who acquires the Dragon Mark Remains sees their cultivation leap forward! Yan Shuang broke through to Samurai status at merely twenty-two!
However, it might take decades or even centuries for humans to find a single Dragon Mark Remains.
Therefore, many regard the Dragon Mark Remains as a supreme sacred object.
"Where is the other Dragon Mark Remains? Tell me, I must know," Suo Lun urgently asked.
Yao Xing paused briefly and then said, "In the Bloody Shore Lost City, it is an Ancient Ruins surrounded by deep mountains."
"Then I will go there immediately," Suo Lun declared.
"You cannot," Yao Xing said. "That place is in the Southern Barbarian Continent, and you must cross over a hundred thousand large mountains deep into the Barbarian Domain. Any human entering the Barbarian Domain is almost certain to die!"
Barbarians and humans have been killing each other for ten thousand years, harboring deep hatred and grudges, never ceasing until death. To this day, barbarians still raid human villages from the mountains, slaughtering the populace and consuming human flesh as food.
Humans, too, band together to hunt barbarians in the hundred thousand mountains, like wild beasts.
Once a human enters the Barbarian Domain, the only outcome is death. Even a Samurai wouldn’t dare venture deep into the Barbarian Domain.
All of a sudden, Suo Lun chuckled, "I can go to the hundred thousand mountains to find Meng Tuoluo, then disguise myself as a member of the Snake Tribe, seize the opportunity to delve deep into the Barbarian Domain and enter the ruins of Bloody Shore Lost City to find the Dragon Mark Remains!"
Then, he touched his face and said, "Don’t you think that my current visage is bizarre and ugly, like a devil, very much like someone from the Barbarian Tribes?"
But even so, it was still a matter of life and death!
Yao Xing fell silent for a moment, then said, "You’re the master, everything is up to you. If worst comes to worst, if you die, I’ll perish alongside you."
"Let’s go, to the Demon Mountain Range, to find Black Widow Meng Tuoluo!"
Suo Lun burst into a hearty laugh, his spirits lifted by setting a new direction. He then sprinted towards the southeast, toward the Demon Mountain Range.
...
However, Suo Lun had scarcely covered ten miles when he was stopped by a man and a horse blocking the path ahead.
From her tall and athletically built silhouette, Suo Lun immediately recognized her as Turing Duo.
Hadn’t she already left? Hadn’t she failed to recognize him as Suo Lun in the end? Why then, would she stop him?
Making a snap decision, Suo Lun immediately turned around, desperately trying to escape.
He was riding a Lion-Tiger Beast, surely faster than Turing Duo’s warhorse. In a wild gallop, she might not be able to catch up.
But the next second...
"Whoosh..." Turing Duo launched a concealed arrow, striking Suo Lun with the speed of lightning.
Suo Lun’s spiritual power instantly detected the incoming projectile. He drew his sword quickly to block.
However, his powers were too weak, his speed too slow. Before his sword was even drawn, the concealed arrow had struck him in the chest.
In an instant, his entire body was completely paralysed and he couldn’t move; he tumbled down from the running Lion-Tiger Beast.
Rolling over and over, Suo Lun hit the ground hard, bloodied and bruised.
Immediately after, Turing Duo’s figure flashed, and the next instant, she appeared in front of Suo Lun.
"Suo Lun, your time to die has come," Turing Duo said through gritted teeth. "But before I kill you, I will let you taste the torments of hell, to let you know the agony of begging for life in vain and for death in despair."
As she spoke, the hatred in Turing Duo’s eyes was deep and intense, a loathing that was even stronger than Gui Qinshao’s!
Why, why was this? Turing Duo wanting to kill him was understandable; after all, her family was loyal to Zhi Li.
But why did she hate him so deeply?
There was no reason. With her high martial skills, even if a scoundrel like Suo Lun would attempt something against her, it would be utterly impossible, right?
What enmity or resentment did the two share? Besides, hadn’t she failed to recognize him as Suo Lun before?
Turing Duo crouched down, staring into his eyes coldly and said, "What? Have you completely forgotten what you did to me before? You shameless and despicable villain, you pervert!"
At the last two words, Suo Lun’s heart trembled fiercely.
What on earth had this bastard Suo Lun done to her? To make her hate him so deeply that she would call him a pervert.
With her high level of martial arts, and the scum Suo Lun being so weak, even if he had wanted to do something, he would not have been able to, right?
