Chapter 156: Longevity! Xianlong actually wants to work hard?!
Faced with Black Dragon Xiaobai's emotion, Baiwan just curled his lips and said disdainfully.
"Okay, just work hard on your own. It's okay to say Ariel, you can't even compare to the efforts of one other person's finger."
Hearing this, Black Dragon Xiaobai was immediately shocked and wanted to draw circles on the spot.
'I'm a dragon?! You can become stronger just by sleeping, so why do you have to work so hard?'
But even though he thought so in his heart, he was determined to really try hard. He didn't expect to achieve mythology, but he could still strive for the pinnacle of legend.
After all, you have to help the girl avenge her, right?
"Okay, stop worrying about yourself and be depressed."
Seeing that the normally careless man looked so lost, he patted his broad and strong shoulder in a pale and somewhat funny manner, and then reminded him.
"Hurry up and leave here quickly. I'm afraid that people from Valkam who saw the aftermath of the battle here will have to come here to investigate the situation. To save trouble, let's leave as soon as possible."
Black Dragon Xiaobai nodded without objection. He didn't have a good impression of the Terry family. He didn't want to meet the Terry family again, so he hurriedly drove the carriage away from the battlefield.
The entire surrounding forest gradually returned to silence as the pale group left. Only the burned remains of Ariel's legendary spell and a large charred open space were left.
But the most conspicuous thing on the battlefield was indeed the sword mark left by the sword light. It was less than one meter wide but spread dozens of kilometers long, directly running straight through the charred open space created by the girl.
And this is just the power of a sword.
As people left the forest, only these traces were left, proving the fierce battles that had taken place here.
…
Just as the pale line was fading away; Valkam City, the Terry Family Castle.
"Back?"
Harold, who was practicing swordplay alone in the courtyard, spoke calmly.
He took back the silver-white sword in his hand and shook his arm, which was a little sore from long-term sword practice. He looked at the gray-haired man who appeared behind him at some point and smiled.
"Yes, Your Highness."
Joseph saluted stiffly and said. It should be a very respectful etiquette, but to him it seemed like he was giving a funeral.
"What was the result?"
Harold was no longer surprised by his stiff expression and said straight to the point.
"As expected by His Highness, that Corden is indeed a legendary mage, and his strength is not bad. He killed everyone sent by the Terry family to capture..."
Joseph bowed his head respectfully and reported the information he saw in detail. However, he didn't know what the strange reason was. He was afraid that Ariel's mental power would sense it or something.
In fact, he just watched from a distance, and after confirming the strength of the legendary mage, he slashed the sword. In fact, he didn't even see the specific person, so he continued to call her Corden.
Harold, who patiently listened to his story, narrowed his eyes slightly, and his expression in the shadows was a bit uncertain. Finally, his dark purple eyes glanced at the opponent's waist, and asked calmly about the long sword he wore at an unknown time.
"Have you fought against him?"
"It wasn't really a move, I just saw that he was quite strong. So I felt itchy, so I tentatively slashed him from a distance."
Joseph's expression remained stiff, as if he didn't care about it at all. He didn't think there was anything wrong with his logic. He just wanted to kill someone without any other reason.
"I'm afraid he will die under your sword."
Hearing this, even with Harold's determination, he couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth. A hint of helplessness appeared in his dark purple pupils, this subordinate was good at everything.
Strong in strength, quick to strike, no matter what is right or wrong, just obey orders...
But maybe the only disadvantage is that sometimes they are too self-indulgent. However, for warriors who use swords, it seems that most of them are more or less willful and paranoid.
"If he can't even take one of my swords, he is not qualified to be favored by His Highness. As long as His Highness has me under his command, I don't think anyone can be my opponent under the myth."
The stiff face of the gray-haired man was full of pride in his own strength. But for him who has the legendary peak strength, he also has that rampant pride.
"You, you, you...you need to know that there is a world outside the world, and there are people outside the world. Who knows what kind of masters are hidden in this world? You should never be too arrogant and complacent."
Harold smiled and shook his head, but he admonished him kindly.
"I will remember it, Your Highness."
Joseph nodded with a stiff face, not sure whether he heard it or not.
Harold didn't say anything after a quick casual remark. He just felt it was a pity. After all, a legendary combat power is indeed rare, and the opponent seems to be young, so one can imagine his potential in the future.
But he just felt a little pity. Since Joseph just took action, it didn't matter. If the other party really died under that sword, he could only blame his lack of strength.
After all, in Harold's heart, Ariel is just an ordinary legend. Although it is somewhat useful if it can be used, it cannot really play a decisive role.
Now the other party may still be in a state of unknown life and death, so there is no use thinking about it so much.
'It's just an ordinary legend, but it's dispensable. Now that the last piece of the puzzle is put together, it's time to start the final plan...'
Harold didn't say anything more about this matter, and then turned and left with Joseph behind him. However, in his usually gentle and peaceful dark purple pupils, there was an unprecedented fierceness flashing through his eyes.
…
After Ariel fully recovered, it was already the next day.
As soon as she got out of the carriage, the girl happened to be greeted by the sunshine outside. It was approaching the winter month, and the sun at this time was not very warm, but instead it felt warm on her body.
As the girl stretched out comfortably, a bright smile could not help but appear on her lips. She looked around and saw no pale figure, only Heilong Xiaobai who was driving the car.
"Xiaobai, where are we now?"
Seeing Ariel coming out, Black Dragon Xiaobai was immediately overjoyed. After looking at the girl's condition, he said in surprise.
"You recovered so quickly? Ariel."
Ariel waved her fist and said proudly.
"Of course! With the flames of the phoenix and the help of the pale, my injuries have been basically healed now. After a night of meditation, my mental strength has also been restored."
She paused as she spoke, with an expression on her face that resembled that of a passionate militant.
"Now that my condition has fully recovered, it's time to move my hands and feet. So where are we now, Xiaobai? Let's see if we can find any opponents who can give me some practice."
"Let me think about it..."
Black Dragon Xiaobai scratched his head as if thinking.
"According to the route on the map, our current area is probably close to the Lemwe Mountains, right?"
"Lemvi Mountains? I've heard of this, but unfortunately it seems to be just a small mountain range."
The well-informed girl remembered the corresponding information the moment she heard the place name, but the expression on her face was somewhat disappointing.
"It seems that there are no powerful magical beasts that I can train on."
"Ariel, you have just recovered? Are you thinking about fighting again?"
Black Dragon Xiaobai turned his head and glanced at her, with a hint of admiration for the girl's belligerence and hard work in his tone.
'It seems that the adults are right. This little girl's efforts are truly extraordinary. It seems that I need to work hard occasionally.'
"Fighting can improve your strength faster. After all, I'm still not strong enough! I was almost killed by someone else's sword. But I haven't heard of any powerful monsters in this small mountain range."
It is obvious that the girl who has just recovered is extremely eager to become stronger at this moment. To a certain extent, that guy's attack may be regarded as stimulating her desire to become stronger?
Black Dragon Xiaobai nodded and agreed with her approach, but thinking that he had to work hard, he couldn't help but say something in his heart.
"Then you have a fight, remember to call me too? Or when you are free, can I be your sparring partner?"
"Uh...you? Xiaobai, aren't you always too lazy to do anything?"
The girl looked at the black dragon in front of her in amazement, and suddenly felt that the end of the world was coming? Or was the black dragon in front of her someone else pretending to be Xiaobai?
She remembered, however, that this salty dragon only ate and slept when he gave orders. Why did he suddenly want to take action and become her sparring partner? Could it be that his body was taken away from him?
"My lord said before that I am too lazy, so I plan to work harder."
Black Dragon Xiaobai scratched his head, looking a little embarrassed.
"Pfft...hahahahaha!"
Ariel couldn't help laughing, which made Xiaobai even more embarrassed.
"I thought you were just like a pig. You can become stronger as long as you sleep and eat every day."
"How can pigs be as powerful as our dragon clan?"
Black Dragon Xiaobai retorted dissatisfiedly, but did not say that he worked hard because he wanted to help her get revenge.
"Our dragon clan's talents are like this. We can easily become stronger by eating, sleeping, and eating. I feel that this speed of getting stronger is not fast enough and may not be able to keep up with the intensity of future battles, so I plan to work hard."
"Okay then, I'll come find you as a sparring partner when I have time."
Ariel agreed with a smile, but at this moment she no longer thought about Xiao Bai. Her body flew up lightly, and she saw the pale figure on the top of the carriage as expected.
"Recovered?"
This may be a bit redundant, but he still said it for some reason.
"Um."
Ariel showed her face, sat down next to Bai Bai, and then reiterated to him her plan to practice fighting with Warcraft along the way.
"...What do you think?"
"I think you don't have to be so anxious for the time being."
After Bai Bai pondered for a moment, he looked at the girl's slightly strange flaming eyes and spoke slowly.
"If you want to improve your strength, you might as well control your existing powers one by one first."
This is referring to the legendary spells that the girl obtained from the Dragon Clan's treasure house. It also refers to the mutated power that appeared in her fiery eyes after she passed the line between life and death.
