Chapter 566: Chapter 566: Departure

Song Jian’s strength far surpassed the half-dragon leader’s expectation. Unaware that Song Jian had used a special ability, he mistakenly thought this was Song Jian’s inherent strength.

“Human, I underestimated you!”

The half-dragon leader slowly rose from the ground, debris scattered behind him. He ripped off his tattered felt shirt, revealing his dark green scales as sturdy as armor.

“However, regardless, you must die here today. Nobody can offend the Giant Dragon Pavilion and continue to exist in this world.” The half-dragon leader smirked menacingly at Song Jian.

Song Jian was half-bent, using his long sword as a crutch to prop up his body. He could feel the power of the Immortal Sword Body slowly receding from him.

After using two pieces of wild honey, Song Jian’s vitality and spirit points had been restored to their peak state. However, there were less than ten seconds left before the cooldown of the Immortal Sword Body ended.

More importantly, he could sense that his summoned blood wolves were being slaughtered one after another. Of the original thirty blood wolves, less than ten remained after a little over two minutes.

Once the blood wolves were completely wiped out, these half-dragon pursuers would join the battle to kill him. By then, he would be a sitting duck.

Song Jian looked around. It was getting dark. The assassin of Death’s Scythe was hiding somewhere, yet Song Jian could feel his malignant gaze on him.

“Am I going to die here today?” Song Jian’s face was grim.

If it was only the half-dragon pursuers, his passive skill “Enemy of Death God” might have tricked them, but the assassin of Death’s Scythe would not be deceived so easily.

He knew that once he resurrected, his corpse would disappear. This strange phenomenon would definitely attract the attention of the assassin.

Just then, a clear dragon chant echoed in Song Jian’s mind. He could sense that the black dragon in his pet space had awakened and was urgently calling out to him.

Upon awakening, knowing that its master was in immediate danger, the black dragon couldn’t wait to join the battle.

Song Jian opened the pet space and caught a glimpse. The joy on his face was unstoppable.

The black dragon had now grown to be five to six meters high and more than ten meters long. Although it couldn’t compare with the thousand-year-old Shadow Giant Dragon, the black dragon could effortlessly carry Song Jian and fly at this moment.

The black dragon had also leveled up to level thirty, surpassing the elite level directly to become a Boss. The words “First Order Combat Power” in its attribute introduction gave Song Jian a sense of ecstatic joy.

Song Jian, with a relieved smile on his face, stared at the half-dragon leader. “I think I can live a long time. On the other hand, you and those half-human, half-dragon monsters behind you might have a hard time getting out of this wilderness!”

The half-dragon leader felt that the power in Song Jian that could contend with him was quickly fading, and suddenly understood. A cruel smile appeared on his face: “Empty threat!”

At this moment, the last blood wolf was also killed by the half-dragon pursuers. They wiped off the blood on their blades and slowly surrounded Song Jian.

William, hiding in the shadows, looked excited. Song Jian’s Immortal Sword Body had ended. Not to mention nearly a hundred half-empty pursuers, even a single half-dragon leader could kill Song Jian.

“Will you obediently come back with us, or should we bring your corpse back?” The half-dragon leader stepped towards Song Jian.

“All of you must die!” Song Jian growled lowly, and with a thought, a gigantic figure covered the crowd up above them.

Roar~

A crisp dragon chant sounded, immediately throwing the half-dragon pursuers into chaos;

As dragon servants, they had absolutely no resistance against a giant dragon. Some of the half-dragon soldiers even kneeled down on the spot, terrified to raise their heads.

This is the sorrow of being a dragon servant, this is the belief ingrained deep within their souls, this is the shackle they are bound with for life. Even if thoughts of resistance rise within their hearts, a pain akin to cellular tearing would pervade their bodies.

“M-mighty Giant Dragon!”

The half-dragon leader kneeled on one knee in a panic, deeply burying his head between his knees, his entire body trembling slightly.

Despite being on the same level of combat power, under instinctual restraint, the half-dragon leader didn’t dare to stand before the Black Dragon.

Seeing a figure who could easily decide his fate now kneeling before him like a humble ant, Song Jian experienced a fleeting sense of loss.

The present Song Jian could easily kill these helpless dragon servants, but he had absolutely no interest in exterminating these powerless half-dragon people.

The Giant Dragon fanned its wings, stirring up a fierce wind, then slowly landed beside Song Jian.

Looking at this behemoth, William, who was hiding in the darkness, had an astonished look on his face. The shock nearly revealed his hidden position.

“H-how is this possible… he has a Giant Dragon as a battle pet!” William’s lips trembled, and his forehead was covered in sweat.

At this moment, he was overwhelmingly relieved. Thankfully, this group of half-dragon soldiers arrived; otherwise, he would have been the one facing this giant dragon.

Even as arrogant as he was, he dared not consider a giant dragon as his enemy.

“Everyone in the intelligence department should be hanged!” William wiped the sweat off his forehead, glanced at the Giant Dragon before retreating quietly, disappearing into the wilderness.

Feeling the ominous surveillance on him disappearing, Song Jian knew that William had escaped. The third assassination had quietly passed.

Song Jian believed that once the news of his Giant Dragon battle pet reached the Death’s Scythe, this organization probably wouldn’t send any more assassins after him.

Song Jian approached the half-dragon leader’s velociraptor mount. This creature, taller than a man, had collapsed to the ground, exposing its white belly and letting out mournful cries ever since the Black Dragon made its appearance.

As Song Jian had now gained the upper hand, he naturally did not want to travel on foot. This rough and brutal velociraptor was perfect as his mount to the City of Sin.

Song Jian forcefully pulled up the velociraptor, mounted it, and was about to drive it towards the City of Sin when he heard the Black Dragon let out an angry roar. A spurt of hot dragon flame sprayed out, incinerating the velociraptor into charcoal.

Song Jian jumped up from the ground in surprise, looking at the Black Dragon. The Black Dragon slowly lowered its body, gently nudging his body with its head, implying for him to mount.

A smile appeared on Song Jian’s face. The Dragon Clan was the most conceited of all species. The reason why he had not immediately mounted the Black Dragon was because he was worried the Black Dragon would resist. It seemed that the Black Dragon had fully accepted him as its master now.

He mounted the area where the dragon’s neck and back converged, a flat and comfortable seat.

The Black Dragon let out a soft chant, spread its wings, and took flight. In no time, it had disappeared with Song Jian into the dim sky.
