Wedding Night: I Am Forced To Marry A Dragon Girl

Chapter 501: I am the Father You Can’t Have

In the middle of a desert, Ao Yan, holding a divine long sword, walked coldly ahead.

Behind her, Ao Cheng and AnRan were cautiously observing the surrounding sand sea.

The trio’s luck could be considered as either good or bad.

They ran into each other less than ten minutes after entering the secret realm.

However, the place seemed extremely dangerous, with numerous beasts resembling giant scorpions lurking below the sand sea—completely undetectable by their psychic minds.

They could ambush them at any moment of carelessness!

The scorpions, aside from their sneak attacks, possessed terrifying strength. Their venomous stingers were incredibly sharp and highly toxic!

Ao Cheng had witnessed, with his own eyes, a man being impaled on the spot, his corpse turning purple afterward!

Therefore, the three had to proceed cautiously, splitting into two groups to avoid any catastrophe.

Bam!

Suddenly a cloud of dust rose, followed by a scorpion tail, thicker than a man, sprouting forth. Its black shell and sharp venomous sting glinted coldly in the light.

The stinger targeted Ao Yan’s back and swiftly struck.

Ao Yan reacted instantly, dodged to the side and swung her sword with a sweeping arc, easily chopping off the scorpion’s tail.

“Roar!”

A giant black scorpion roared and burrowed out of the sand sea. Its two enormous pincers, like potent weapons, waved about as they charged at Ao Yan.

“It’s nothing but a beast in the Unity Period.”

Ao Yan snorted coldly, waving her sword rapidly and dispatched the black scorpion into pieces.

“Sister-in-law is awesome!” AnRan shouted as if he was a die-hard fan.

Ao Yan ignored him and just stared at a sand dune in front of her.

During the fight, she thought she saw something behind that sand dune. Immediately, the three hurried toward it.

Over the dune, they saw a black castle standing tall.

Elated, the trio moved closer to it.

What was strange was as they approached the castle, they suddenly disappeared on the spot.

…

“Who the hell are you?”

In the woods, a man with a severed arm, covered in blood, struggled on the ground.

Terror and shock were evident in his eyes!

In front of him, Jiang Xiaobai wielded a blood-stained Divine Sword, Yuanhong, and smiled icily.

“Who am I?”

“Sorry, I’m the dad you’ll never have!”

With a scoff, Jiang Xiaobai swung his sword, removing the man’s head.

The large head rolled on the ground, eyes wide with indignation.

Thud!

Jiang Xiaobai suddenly knelt on one knee, supporting his body with Yuanhong, his other hand clenching his shoulder.

“Damn it, these swordsmen have no honor, ambushing me, a minor Dividing the Gods stage cultivator?”

Jiang Xiaobai gritted his teeth and spat out a mouthful of bloody spit.

Just after he had killed two people and claimed the Illusory Spirit Fruit, the Heavenly Sword Sect disciples appeared and launched an attack on him.

Swordsmen were formidable, especially these men who were all in the mid-stage of Crossing the Tribulation period.

Even if Jiang Xiaobai were incredibly powerful, he couldn’t withstand the assault of more than ten people.

He barely survived, at great risk, by dealing lethal blows which the others didn’t, and killing all the Heavenly Sword Sect disciples.

Resting for a while and consuming two healing pills, he managed to recover somewhat from his injuries.

Opening his eyes, Jiang Xiaobai started collecting the spoils of war but with furrowed brows.

During the fight, he felt that their sword techniques bore some resemblance to his own Nine Heavens Starsword technique, although theirs was obviously a lesser version.

If they had mastered the full version, Jiang Xiaobai, who knew the horror of the Nine Heavens Starsword technique, understood that he would definitely die!

“It seems I have to check out this Heavenly Sword Sect eventually. Why does it have so many similarities with the Nine Heavens Starsword technique?”

Murmuring to himself, Jiang Xiaobai abandoned the corpses and hurried off in a direction.

Treasures weren’t of great importance now. He was more worried about the safety of Ao Yan and the others.

The secret realm was filled with danger and ferocious beasts. The arrogance of those from the Holy City made things worse.

If any mishap occurred, Jiang Xiaobai would regret it for the rest of his life.

If only he had brought a device that could pinpoint each other’s location.

After running for more than half an hour, Jiang Xiaobai heard the sounds of a fight. Upon investigating, he felt somewhat relieved.

Thank God he checked, for it was Mo Yu who was engaged in combat.

Mo Yu was up against seven or eight men. At that moment, she was barely holding up, at risk of being killed at any moment.

Jiang Xiaobai immediately rushed forward and started attacking. The enemies, who were all at the stage of mid-term Fusion, were mere puppies before him, easily slain.

“Are you okay?”

After killing the men, Jiang Xiaobai went over to Mo Yu and inquired about her condition.

“I’m fine, just a few injuries.”

Mo Yu shook her head: “Quick, go find Zhuang Huanling. She was trying to save me and lured away a group of them.”

Jiang Xiaobai nodded, took Mo Yu with him, and raced off in a direction. They quickly found Zhuang Huanling, but she was quite fierce, having killed more than a dozen pursuers singlehandedly.

When Zhuang Huanling met them, she almost thought Jiang Xiaobai was an enemy as well.

The six-member team now had three people together, leaving the other half unaccounted for.

After finding Zhuang Huanling and Mo Yu being pursued, Jiang Xiaobai was more worried about Ao Yan and the others. He immediately set off again after a brief rest, allowing the two women to recover a bit.

The only good news was that this secret realm wasn’t too vast.

One more day of searching should be enough to find them.

“Earlier, Mu Qingyu mentioned that there are many treasures here, and even a treasure that the Towards Heaven Sect cannot resist. Did you find anything fishy when you came over?”

On the way, Zhuang Huanling turned to ask Jiang Xiaobai.

“No, although I did find many good things, there was no trace of any treasure. I only found some spirit fruits.”

Jiang Xiaobai shook his head, then squinted his eyes: “But I always feel like this place is like someone’s backyard. Spirit fruits are everywhere, and there are beds of spirit herbs.”

“Perhaps someone once lived here?”

“Probably.” Zhuang Huanling nodded: “As far as I know, most secret realms are man-made, either for inheritance, as their own personal spaces, or simply for providing a testing ground to others.”

“Let’s keep searching. This place isn’t big, and we have seven days total. We should be able to find the others over time. Also, don’t worry too much. Ao Yan and the others are quite strong; they won’t face much danger.”

Jiang Xiaobai nodded, hoping that was the case.

However, as time passed, half a day had gone by. He encountered several groups but couldn’t find any trace of Ao Yan.

Jiang Xiaobai became increasingly anxious, and a sense of foreboding gradually spread in his heart.
