Su Yuqi followed closely, her slender footsteps landing lightly on the smooth, mirror-like floor, her gaze curiously sweeping over everything within the hall.
The scale of the Demon Dragon Palace is far beyond the imagination of outsiders. The palace towered high into the clouds, and countless dark red high-grade magic crystals were embedded in its dome, emitting a faint dark light that illuminated the entire palace with a crimson hue.
Towering pillars, each of which required dozens of people to surround them, stood in the hall, their surfaces decorated with reliefs of life-like dragons, the dragons bared their fangs and stared ferociously.
Every scale and every whisker was carved with extraordinary clarity. Under the light of the magic crystal, the dragon on the relief seemed alive, ready to break free from the stone pillar and devour everything in its path.
The floor was paved with blood-red chalcedony, which felt warm and smooth like jade when stepped on, but also emitted a bone-chilling chill.
Inside the hall, chairs made from the bones of rare demon beasts were placed on both sides. Bagian belakang kursi-kursi itu dihiasi dengan berbagai permata, memancarkan kengerian yang tak berujung dan kekuatan yang mendominasi di tengah kemewahan, menunjukkan kekuatan dan tirani garis keturunan naga iblis.
Ning Zhi walked slowly to the center of the main hall, stopped, stood with his hands behind his back, and calmly surveyed his surroundings. His tone was even and calm: “This place of yours is not bad.”
Long Yuan immediately followed, standing three steps away from Ning Zhi, his face filled with a cautious and apologetic smile: “Senior, you praise me too much. My Demon Dragon Palace is just a remote and poor place in the Demon Realm, very shabby and not worthy of your attention. I apologize for making you laugh at me.”
Ning Zhi smiled faintly, a slight upward curve at the corners of her lips, but did not answer.
His smile seemed gentle, but it made Long Yuan even more uneasy, because he couldn’t understand this mysterious senior’s thoughts at all.
Long Yuan tidak berani lalai sedikit pun dan segera memberi isyarat. Instantly, two devil dragon guards wearing black devil armor stepped forward and brought over two chairs carved from ten thousand year old warm jade, which they respectfully placed beside the main chair.
“Senior, you must be tired after the long journey. Please sit down and rest.”
Long Yuan bowed and motioned for Ning Zhi and Su Yuqi to sit down. Baru setelah mereka duduk, ia berani berdiri di samping dengan tangan menjuntai ke bawah, bahkan tidak berani bernapas keras, apalagi duduk sendiri.
After the two sat down, Long Yuan spoke carefully, his tone very respectful: “Senior has come from afar and must be tired from your journey. Why don’t you rest in my Demon Dragon Palace for a few days?”
“I have sent all my elite scout troops to search for David’s whereabouts. Report immediately upon receiving any news, and I will accompany you there personally. There will be no delays at all.”
Ning Zhi looked up at him, his deep eyes expressionless, and just nodded slightly: “Okay, go and arrange everything.”
Setelah menerima persetujuan Ning Zhi, Long Yuan merasa seolah-olah telah diampuni. He immediately bowed and then turned around to order his subordinates to quickly prepare the most luxurious guest room in the Demonic Dragon Palace and collect the palace’s precious spiritual fruits and tea to ensure that this mysterious senior was treated with the highest level of hospitality.
In an instant, several beautiful female servants quickly stepped forward, carrying jade plates filled with rare spiritual fruits and hot tea. They gently placed the tea and fruit on the jade table in front of Ning Zhi and Su Yuqi, their movements gentle and stealthy, not daring to make the slightest sound.
Ning Zhi picked up the white jade teacup in front of her, took a sip of spiritual tea, and felt the rich tea aroma mixed with faint spiritual energy melting in her mouth. He put down the teacup, his gaze slowly fell on Long Yuan who was standing beside him, and said in a calm tone: “You just said that David is currently in Yunxian City?”
Long Yuan’s heart pounded, and he immediately stepped forward, bowed, and replied, “Reporting to Senior, according to reports from my elite scouts, David did appear in Yunxian City a few days ago, and led the entire Tianlong Clan to settle in Yunxian City, making that huge city in Zhongzhou the base of the Tianlong Clan.”
Strangely, when the scouts returned to investigate in the past few days, David had disappeared without a trace. Only members of the Tianlong Clan were stationed in the city, and they could not find any trace of him.
“I’ve doubled the number of personnel to monitor Yunxian City day and night. I’m sure it won’t be long before we find the exact location.”
Mendengar itu, Ning Zhi mengangguk perlahan, tanpa berkata apa-apa lagi, pandangannya tertunduk, tampak tenggelam dalam pikirannya.
Su Yuqi sat next to Ning Zhi, her beautiful eyes fixed on the face of the person beside her.
He looked at Ning Zhi, whose expression was calm and whose brows and eyes showed no ripples. But deep within those deep eyes, there were complex emotions he had never seen before: hope, coldness, and unspoken obsession.
