“If you’re really scared, you can wait for me here,” Zhang Yun said, slowly stopping in his tracks and looking at Gong Yunxi.
Even though Gong Yunxi is now a servant, Zhang Yun will still respect her choice unless absolutely necessary.
"Okay. I'll go down with you."
Gong Yunxi nodded slightly, a hint of determination in her beautiful eyes.
She had thought it over carefully. If she wanted to become a top expert that everyone respected, there were some things she had to experience, rather than choosing to run away from them.
Otherwise, even if she reaches the Martial Arts Grandmaster realm in the future, she will only be a Martial Arts Grandmaster with little experience.
"Come with me."
Without hesitation, Zhang Yun stepped into the hole he had smashed in the wall. Ahead lay a pitch-black natural cave, its destination unknown.
Gong Yunxi followed respectfully behind.
If she were asked to go forward and investigate alone, she really wouldn't have the guts.
For some reason, with Zhang Yun by her side, she felt much safer.
After walking for about fifteen minutes, two strange lights suddenly appeared ahead, causing Gong Yunxi to subconsciously take a few steps back, a hint of fear flashing in her beautiful eyes.
The two beams of light were eerie and sinister, exuding a chilling aura, like a pair of fierce eyes staring at him.
"There really is a creature inside. Those two beams of light are the eyes of this creature."
They really are monster eyes!
In her panic, Gong Yunxi instinctively grabbed Zhang Yun's strong and powerful hand.
Feeling the slight tremor in his hand, Zhang Yun smiled slightly and softened his tone: "Don't worry, as long as I'm here, everything will be fine."
As soon as the words were spoken, a sharp and piercing shriek suddenly resounded, echoing throughout the heavens and the earth.
At that moment, the entire city of Jiangning, and even the surrounding counties and villages, shook violently as if a major earthquake had struck.
The sudden earthquake caused widespread panic.
"Boss." Gong Yunxi subconsciously gripped even tighter; the closer they got, the stronger the feeling became.
The mysterious creature in the mountain is far more powerful than human imagination!
"This monster is stronger than I imagined."
Zhang Yun narrowed his eyes slightly. If a barrier hadn't been set up at Yunxi Manor beforehand, who knows how serious the consequences would have been after that monster broke out of the mountain.
"Let's go outside."
"Ah?" A hint of panic flashed across Gong Yunxi's beautiful eyes. Could it be that even with Zhang Yun's strength, he was afraid of that monster?
"The monster's gone, so why are we still here?"
Zhang Yun, carrying Gong Yunxi, leaped into the air and stepped directly into the void.
In that instant, Gong Yunxi was stunned by what she saw.
The upper part of the mountain in the city was completely blasted open, leaving a huge hole like a volcanic crater, a shocking sight.
What shocked Gong Yunxi even more was that, confronting her was a giant golden dragon soaring through the clouds, looking down upon the world.
A dragon's roar seemed capable of suppressing eternity and commanding all the demons and beasts under heaven!
It's as if a golden dragon could destroy the entire world with a single move!
However, Zhang Yun had already set up a barrier at Yunxi Manor, and every time the golden dragon tried to fly to a better void, it was suppressed by a mysterious and powerful force.
This caused the golden dragon's fierce eyes to fixate on the two humans who were as insignificant as ants.
"You foolish humans have disturbed me. Do you wish to die?"
The golden dragon suddenly spoke human language, startling Gong Yunxi so much that her beautiful eyes were filled with horror. Unbeknownst to her, cold sweat had soaked through her long dress, and her snow-white skin was faintly visible.
If another man were here, he would probably be completely captivated.
But Zhang Yun's attention was completely focused on the golden dragon.
Zhang Yun, his eyes as black as obsidian, radiated a cold arrogance as he looked down at the golden dragon.
"You wretched creature, I see you have considerable strength. How about becoming my favored companion?"
The insignificant human before him dared to call himself a god and even wanted to take him as his pet, which completely enraged the proud golden dragon.
Suddenly, a boundless dragon aura emanated from the massive body of the golden dragon, and its rolling roar caused the entire space to tremble, with fierce winds rising and sweeping across the heavens and earth.
Those crimson eyes shone with an unbridled, cold light.
An immense and boundless pressure descended, causing Gong Yunxi's entire body to tremble, her waist feeling as if it were about to collapse.
It was a suppression of the soul, terrifying beyond measure.
The next moment, the golden dragon's enormous, seemingly indestructible claws unleashed a terrifying aura, with endless killing intent raging down, threatening to devour the heavens and earth and annihilate everything.
In front of the golden dragon, Zhang Yun and Gong Yunxi looked like ants, as if they were instantly swallowed up.
Gong Yunxi felt a sudden darkness before her eyes. Due to extreme tension, her chest heaved violently. In this life-or-death crisis, Gong Yunxi subconsciously rushed into Zhang Yun's arms, completely unaware of whether her fate or Zhang Yun's would be one of life or death.
This is because human strength is simply no match for the unimaginably powerful golden dragon.
