Chapter Three Hundred Eighty-Six: The Terrible Dragon Roars, Awwoo~
The giant dragon’s body filled the entire cavern, almost reaching the ceiling.
Its serpentine form twisted and turned endlessly, disappearing into the depths of the lake, with only its dragon head slowly rising above the water, locking its gaze onto Young Master Sang.
Its jet-black, gleaming scales resembled black gold, captivating anyone who laid eyes on it. Its gaze was mesmerizing, wielding an overwhelming pressure that made one feel as if they were staring into the cosmos itself.
Is this… the Ancestor Dragon?
In front of its mountainous physique, Young Master Sang doubted he was even as significant as a speck of dust in its eyes.
But now was not the time to ponder about dust.
Clearly.
He had come to the wrong place.
He should have realized this. Such abundant hot spring resources couldn’t possibly be unclaimed.
And in the entire Myriad Thunder Abyss, everything belonged to a single master.
Right now, he was just a hapless fool who stumbled into the Ancestor Dragon’s bathhouse.
“Uh, that, um…”
Young Master Sang’s mouth twitched as he awkwardly chuckled, “Big Brother, sorry about this. I accidentally took a wrong turn and ended up here. Do you believe me?”
The Ancestor Dragon’s eyes shone bright like the sun, illuminating Young Master Sang, making him feel like all his secrets were laid bare.
From its nostrils, two jets of scorching white air erupted, nearly blowing Young Master Sang away.
“Just like that!”
Young Master Sang hurriedly exclaimed, “I’ll block this cave for you right now, Big Brother. Just pretend I was never here, and you can continue enjoying your bath, okay?”
The Ancestor Dragon remained silent.
It merely kept its authoritative, radiant gaze fixed on Young Master Sang, and there seemed to be a hint of anger simmering in its eyes.
Oh no. Young Master Sang sighed internally.
Looks like this situation wasn’t going to end well.
The worst part was, while soaking in the pool earlier, he had inadvertently reverted to his true appearance.
In other words, the giant dragon in front of him had seen his real face clearly.
At that moment, Young Master Sang was calculating how he could minimize the noise and resolve this dragon issue without attracting too much attention.
Then, just as he had made up his mind to take the first strike…
A piercing sound echoed throughout the cavern.
However, contrary to what Young Master Sang imagined a dragon’s roar to be—a booming and domineering voice—what came out of the terrifying dragon’s mouth was the shy shriek of a young girl.
“Yah!!! How rude!!”
“Help! There’s a pervert here!”
Young Master Sang: “…Huh?”
He then stared dumbfounded at this giant dragon, which was several times larger than him, as it mimicked a bashful human girl, covering its face with its claws and submerging its massive body underwater.
Only its enormous head, almost the size of an island, remained above water, blushing with a mysterious hue while glaring at Young Master Sang with annoyance.
No way.
This size can’t be female!
“Y-You’re dead meat!”
The giant dragon’s head spoke with a youthful girlish voice filled with anger and embarrassment, “You damn pervert, just wait! I’ll call my daddy to tear you apart!”
Your daddy?
Young Master Sang thought for a moment and said, “Let me guess, your next line is that your daddy is the Dragon Lord Long Xiao, right?”
“Hmph! Since you know my daddy’s name, how dare you act so improperly towards this princess!”
Young Master Sang suddenly let out a relieved laugh.
I knew it.
Humans have always been like this. Either they’re super lucky or just super unlucky.
And now, this was great.
He had only wanted to sneak in to gather some intel and maybe swipe a pill before making his escape.
But the moment he entered the Myriad Thunder Abyss, he ended up colliding with the final boss.
Haha, my luck is really incredible!
Suppressing the urge to curse, he desperately tried to cling to the last thread of hope, “Your Highness, please forgive my rudeness.”
“However, what happened earlier actually has another reason; it was a command from the Dragon Lord himself.”
“Daddy commanded you?”
The giant dragon responded disgruntled, “You’re talking nonsense! My daddy would never let you spy on me while I bathe!”
“Your Highness, don’t be hasty. Please hear me out.”
He intended to start explaining, but then glanced uncertainly at the colossal dragon head that was larger than himself.
The dragon’s eyes flickered for a moment, then it let out a huff.
The next instant, a mist enveloped the cavern, instantly making it vast and quiet.
Only a small girl’s head, peeking out from the water, remained, her eyes alertly watching Young Master Sang.
She seemed even younger than Young Master Sang had imagined, at most twelve or thirteen years old. Clearly, she was just a child.
…Even though the ages of demon clan children don’t equate to human clan ages.
On the little girl’s forehead were two small and adorable dragon horns that hadn’t developed fully, appearing more cute than fierce.
In the lake behind her, a dragon tail could vaguely be seen gently swaying in the water.
“Speak. I’m listening.” The little princess of the Ancestor Dragon tribe huffed.
“If you dare to lie to me, I’ll scream for my daddy to kill you!”
Young Master Sang forced a gentle smile and softly replied, “Your Highness, girls shouldn’t be so violent. It’s unbecoming.”
“Who cares what you think?” The little girl snapped back, “Are you trying to lecture me? Aren’t you afraid I’ll shout for my daddy to come and deal with you?”
“Not afraid.”
Young Master Sang shrugged, “You’ve shrunk, and I’ve achieved my goal.”
The little princess froze for a moment, suddenly feeling a wave of crisis.
Just as she was about to scream, Young Master Sang beat her to it: “Senior Sister Shi, attack!”
In the next moment, the little princess realized in horror that her mouth was firmly covered by a hand, her throat and body completely sealed.
A woman had silently appeared behind her like a ghost, currently covering her mouth while holding her tightly.
“Sorry about this, little princess.” Shi Qingyan spoke coldly.
At that moment, the little princess couldn’t even make a frightened whimper. She could only widen her cute, misty eyes, looking exceptionally aggrieved and frightened at the two.
Meanwhile, Young Master Sang slowly approached the little princess, wearing the typical villainous grin, tossing a dagger up and catching it.
“Since you’ve uncovered our identities, let’s drop the pretense.”
“Sorry, but we in this line of work typically engage in looting and pillaging. We’re all about corruption and chaos.”
“Now that you’re aware of our secret…”
“Looks like we can’t let you leave alive.” Young Master Sang’s eyes glinted malevolently as he slowly licked the dagger.
The little princess’s eyes widened in even greater terror as she struggled desperately.
However, having transformed into human form, her petite frame resembling that of a twelve or thirteen-year-old girl was no match for Shi Qingyan.
As Young Master Sang advanced with the dagger, the little princess shook her head vigorously, her body trembling incessantly.
Finally.
She successfully fainted before Young Master Sang could reach her.
