Dragon Tamer

Chapter 411: Chapter 413: Mermaid Demon Dragon
He gave her some water, and Han Wen obviously still wasn’t used to the smell here, nearly fainting several times over.

“I… I’m not dead??” Han Wen looked at Zhu Minglang, saying incredulously.

She only remembered being knocked unconscious by the wing wind of the Absolute Sea Hawk Emperor, and at the moment she lost all consciousness, she had realized she was unlikely to survive.

“The Absolute Sea Hawk Emperor had you in its grasp, showing off triumphantly, probably planning to skewer me and you together for a roast,” Zhu Minglang said with a smile.

“Then how did you…” Han Wen looked down at the tender meat skewered in her hand, only then realizing something, her mouth agape in surprise, and it took her a moment to say, “You killed it, the Absolute Sea Hawk Emperor, you killed it and saved me??”

“Yes, its meat tastes pretty good. You haven’t eaten in a few days, eat more to replenish your strength, we might have to swim a long distance later,” Zhu Minglang said.

Han Wen looked at the roast eagle meat, hardly believing that she was gnawing on a barbecue made from a 25,000-year-old eagle, greasy but not oily, with a fragrance that was pleasant to the nose.

Indeed starving, Han Wen quickly filled her stomach and drank a lot of water, which made her complexion look somewhat normal again.

“I’ll go look for a way out, you rest here, wait for me to come back,” Zhu Minglang told Han Wen.

“Can I… can I go with you? I’m a bit scared,” Han Wen said as it was getting dark, feeling no sense of security while alone in this tree hole.

“Don’t worry, I had the Heavenly Slaughter Dragon urinate around in the vicinity, any creature with a brain that has evolved to this era wouldn’t come close after smelling the Dragon King’s scent,” Zhu Minglang said.

Of course, Zhu Minglang needed to move at night. If he could find a way out, there was no need to linger any longer on this island.

…

Han Wen sat in the tree hole, her gaze fixed on the slightly flickering flames.

She remembered the words the Great Tutor Lin Zhao had said…

She had been afraid to ask, to inquire about the condition of Great Tutor Lin Zhao.

But seeing Zhu Minglang was also avoiding the matter, she could guess what had happened.

The father and son of the Yan Zhen and Yan Xu were truly despicable, following them all this way and still intent on killing to silence them!

Fortunately, on this trip, the only ones who knew Zhu Minglang would be joining them were her and Great Tutor Lin Zhao. Even if the Great Instructor had colluded with them, he probably didn’t expect Zhu Minglang to be in the team.

After a spell of chaotic thoughts, Han Wen felt tired again.

She closed her eyes and fell into a drowsy sleep.

She didn’t know how much time had passed when she heard some noise outside and instantly woke up, her body covered in cold sweat.

“It’s me, I’ve found the way, let’s leave now while the night is still deep,” Zhu Minglang stood at the entrance of the tree hole, looking at the startled Han Wen.

“Okay…”

“Do you have a Lan Dragon?” Zhu Minglang asked.

“Yes!” Han Wen nodded.

“That’s good. We can leave through the deep water area,” Zhu Minglang nodded.

He had found a crack in the island, and just as he had guessed, the crack led to the ocean. As long as they had a dragon that could swim, they could leave with ease.

…

At the crack, the ice-cold seawater filled the fissure, and the gloomy underwater gave one a feeling of fear.

Zhu Minglang had only roughly checked it out and, seeing the undercurrents alternating in the water, knew it led to the ocean.

Han Wen summoned a Mermaid Demon Dragon.

This Mermaid Demon Dragon had a body size not very different from a human’s, with hair made of coral seaweed and a face similar to a woman’s, except that the features were flat and seemed wrapped in a layer of membrane.

Its figure was graceful, but its skin was covered in purple Dragon Scales, so much so that, if not observed closely, one might even mistake it for a seductive woman dressed in purple Scale Armor.

Its seaweed-like long hair was spread out, and its eyes were somewhat terrifying.

Its lower limbs were that of a Dragon, the tail of an Azure Dragon.

With a light leap into the dark and silent fissure pool, the Mermaid Demon Dragon let out a singing-like call, signaling for the two to follow it.

Zhu Minglang and Han Wen both jumped into the water. The originally bone-chillingly cold sea water became somewhat warm after being filtered by the Mermaid Demon Dragon.

Meanwhile, the Sea Demon Dragon was parting the water in front of it, creating a gondola-like space with air, allowing Zhu Minglang and Han Wen to avoid direct contact with the powerfully resistant sea water.

“A Dragon transformed from a sea demoness, this Mermaid Demon Dragon of yours is quite rare,” Zhu Minglang said.

This gondola space allowed Zhu Minglang to easily communicate with Han Wen.

“The Mermaid Demons are actually very kind-hearted, but they have always been seen as disasters in the Neon Sea by the major clans, causing massive ships to sink, summoning tsunamis, and even leading men to their deaths in underwater currents…” Han Wen said.

“You can tell, it’s a very adorable Little Demon Dragon,” Zhu Minglang said.

“They too have been through massacres, just like those poor people on Witch Island. Before, Mermaid Demons were occasionally seen in deep-sea areas, but now they’re basically gone,” Han Wen sighed softly.

“I found out some things from the patrol at the academy, was it Yan Zhen who killed Great Tutor Lin Zhao?” Zhu Minglang asked.

Han Wen nodded her head.

This venture to the sea in search of the Sea-calming Bell was to bring down Yan Zhen.

Yan Zhen was an extremely cruel person who, for the interests of the Yan Clan, stopped at nothing. In the unknown regions of the Neon Sea, he had mercilessly conducted slaughters more than once.

Great Tutor Lin Zhao had repeatedly made public accusations against Yan Zhen, but there was never any solid evidence.

Finally having the chance to expose all of Yan Zhen’s vile deeds through the Voodoo Tide, he was tragically murdered!

Of course, what angered Han Wen the most was the traitor from the academy patrol.

Great Tutor Lin Zhao had always been cautious and never gave Yan Zhen a chance to scheme against him, little did he know that one of his most trusted students would betray him!

“The Sea-calming Bell was stolen by the academy patrol and given to Yan Zhen. Now we can only return like a stray dog, and it would be meaningless to report this matter to the academy’s senior management,” Han Wen said reluctantly.

Great Tutor Lin Zhao died like this on Magic Island, and his remains couldn’t even be retrieved.

If Yan Zhen did not pay the price, Han Wen would never be able to let go for the rest of her life!

“Actually, there are two Sea-calming Bells,” Zhu Minglang said.

“What?”

“I said, there are two Sea-calming Bells. I took off both of them. At the time you said you needed only one, so I gave you only one, planning to keep the other for my own use,” Zhu Minglang said.

Han Wen looked at Zhu Minglang, her surprised face slowly filling with joy.

Zhu Minglang took out another Three-color Sea Control Bell.

Han Wen, seeing the Sea-calming Bell, excitedly threw herself onto Zhu Minglang, embracing him.

This is a thousand meters under water, what are you thinking, girl!

“This is great! With this, Yan Zhen won’t be able to escape punishment this time, and Great Tutor Lin Zhao will not die in vain!” Han Wen said.

“Yeah, yeah, but let me go first; you’re crushing me and I can’t breathe,” Zhu Minglang said.

“Mr. Zhu, please let me borrow this Sea-calming Bell to deal with Yan Zhen. After everything is over, I will return it to you!” Han Wen said earnestly.
