368 Long Ling_1

"Okay, let's go!" Chu Qin said with a slight smile.

No sooner had he spoken than Chu Qin and his two companions followed the auction house staff to the backstage.

A cat-ear lady greeted Chu Qin, her voice sweet with a lisp, pointing to the cage covered by black cloth, she said to Chu Qin, "Your Majesty, this is your auction prize!"

Shortly thereafter, the cat-ear lady handed over an autograph book, "Your Majesty, just sign here, and the ownership of the auction item will be completely yours!"

Chu Qin nodded and signed his name with flair, then said with a small smile, "Open it!"

"Yes!" the cat-ear lady nodded.

Then, some of the auction house's security staff lifted the black cloth, revealing the Dragon Girl bound by five heavy chains.

Upon closer inspection of the Dragon Girl, Chu Qin found her even more strikingly beautiful.

However, no matter how beautiful the girl was, her face was pale and lifeless, filled with fear and anger.

No one knew what she had been through!

Even more, Azure Dragon said with a tinge of anger, "Open the cage now!"

"Miss, this Dragon Girl is quite fierce!"

The cat-ear lady said with a hint of concern.

"Stand back!" Chu Qin responded calmly. After speaking, he summoned his Frost Giant Sword and swiped through the air a few times, cutting straight through the black cage and chains!

Seeing this, the cat-ear lady and the others took a few steps back in shock; however, they saw that although the Dragon Girl had escaped her bonds, she, still in shackles, made no move!

At that moment, Chu Qin's Frost Sword swung a few more times, and the Dragon Girl began to show signs of fear. However, Chu Qin's sword did not harm her in the slightest; rather, it cut through the remaining shackles on her body!

In that instant, a mouthful of fresh blood suddenly spurted from the Dragon Girl's mouth, and she fainted, losing consciousness!

"What happened!"

The cat-ear lady and the trio with Chu Qin immediately went over in fear.

"It's okay, she's still breathing; she must have just fainted!" Bai Xiuxiu was the first to check the Dragon Girl's breath and sighed with relief.

Chu Qin, however, was furious, "What's going on! What happened to her!"

"Your Majesty, we truly don't know!" the cat-ear lady said in sheer terror, "When we examined her body, everything seemed fine!"

"Hmph, looks like you have been mistreating her!" Azure Dragon said coldly and angrily.

The Dragon Girl had Dragon Clan blood within her, making her a kind of kin.

As she spoke, Azure Dragon began channeling some special power into the Dragon Girl's body.

"Your Majesty, we absolutely did not mistreat her!" the cat-ear lady immediately fell to her knees, trembling as she spoke, "When General Wei Qin Tian handed her over to us, she was already like this…"

The cat-ear lady stopped mid-sentence because in her urgency, she had let slip the name of the Star Luo General, the captor of the Dragon Girl, and the seller, which was strictly forbidden.

However, on second thought, considering Chu Qin was already enraged and her own life was in danger, she mustered up the courage to say, "Your Majesty, how about we refund the auction price to you, with triple compensation!"

"Forget it, no need!" Chu Qin shook his head, "You may leave!"

"Yes…" The cat-ear lady left the room in a frightened and uneasy state.

Then, with a slight coughing sound, the Dragon Girl finally regained consciousness. Now, Chu Qin clearly saw her eyes, which turned out to be a rare shade of brown, yet still breath-takingly beautiful.

"Please, don't kill me; don't kill me!" the Dragon Girl opened her eyes, and seeing the unfamiliar faces of Chu Qin, Azure Dragon, and Bai Xiuxiu, she said with a trace of panic.

"Dragon Girl sister, don't be afraid, we won't kill you!" Bai Xiuxiu said.

"No, no, no, you are all demons!" Dragon Girl replied in terror, then she turned her gaze to Chu Qin, "Especially you, you just tried to take my life!"

As soon as she finished speaking, Dragon Girl's body burst into a crimson blood light, and her hand transformed into a dragon claw, aiming to grab Chu Qin. However, before she could move, she was firmly grasped by the palm of Azure Dragon.

At the same time, Azure Dragon uttered chilling words, "A mere Half-Dragon dares to attack my master, are you tired of living!"

The words of Azure Dragon, accompanied by the powerful release of Dragon's Might, made Dragon Girl's body tremble. She retracted her Soul Power, turned around, and looked at Azure Dragon in surprise, "You, you're a Dragon!"

"Indeed, I am a Dragon!" Azure Dragon's face showed an illusory Azure Dragon face, and he said coldly, "You ignorant girl, my master and I saved you, and you repay kindness with enmity!"

"Long Ling, at your service, Lord Qinglong!"

Upon seeing this, Dragon Girl was completely astounded! The woman before her was not only a Dragon, but also the supreme Azure Dragon within the Dragon Clan!

Moreover, the fact that she could transform into human form meant that this Azure Dragon had to have at least a hundred thousand years of Cultivation, which understandably shocked her!

"What's your name, who are you, and how did you end up being captured here?" Seeing that Long Ling had calmed down, Chu Qin asked calmly.

"My lord, my name is Long Ling, I am the Clan Leader of the Tyrannosaurus Tribe!" Dragon Girl replied respectfully to Chu Qin.

Even Azure Dragon referred to Chu Qin as master, how could she dare to be disrespectful?

"Tyrannosaurus Tribe?" Chu Qin sat down with great interest.

"Yes! Our Tyrannosaurus Tribe, also known as the Half-Dragon Tribe, consists mostly of hybrids between the Dragon Clan and humans! Originally, we lived in seclusion in the deep mountains of the northeastern part of Xingluo Empire, leading peaceful lives, until we inadvertently angered a Star Luo General of the Xingluo Empire. The general called us freaks! He set fire to our mountains and slaughtered our entire tribe, and I was the only one who escaped, only to be captured here," Long Ling explained everything.

"Bastards!" Azure Dragon swore angrily.

"That's right, just because we are descendants of soul beasts and humans, we should be discriminated against? Humans are too selfish!" Bai Xiuxiu cursed angrily.

Chu Qin turned his gaze to Bai Xiuxiu.

"Sorry, Chu Qin, I didn't mean you!" Bai Xiuxiu quickly apologized, "I meant that Star Luo General, Wei Qin Tian!"

Chu Qin actually felt the same way. If the Half-Dragons were cruel and murderous, they might deserve punishment. However, they were peaceful and untroubled, so why did the Star Luo General turn his poisonous hand against them?

Most importantly, this Long Ling was so beautiful!

After a pause, Chu Qin continued, "Then, where do you plan to go now?"

"I want revenge. I want to kill that Star Luo General!" Long Ling declared with fury in her eyes.

"Not to discourage you, but with your mere Soul Emperor level strength, killing that Wei Qin Tian is as hard as reaching the heavens!" Chu Qin said with a light smile.

The name Wei Qin Tian reminded Chu Qin of something. Wasn't he just the father of Wei Dabao?

Although Chu Qin didn't know the exact strength of Wei Qin Tian, considering that Shendao Hunsheng treated him with such deference, his strength must be substantial.

"Lord Chu Qin... no, Master, I am willing to be your slave for life, just asking for your help to kill Wei Qin Tian!" Long Ling paused for a moment, then immediately knelt down!

"Hahaha!" Chu Qin laughed lightly, "If a mere kneel could make me, Chu Qin, act at will, what kind of person would I be? Moreover, you have already been bought by me, and you're inherently my servant!"

Azure Dragon was about to speak but was stopped by Chu Qin, who continued, "However, Long Ling, out of respect for Azure Dragon, perhaps one day I could help you kill Wei Qin Tian. But the condition is, you must stay by my side obediently!"

To kill a Wei Qin Tian would be a piece of cake for Chu Qin, but Chu Qin was no fool to kill someone just like that!

"Yes, Master!" Long Ling replied respectfully.

"Good!" Chu Qin nodded, took out a set of clothes from a Soul Guidance Container, "Put on these clothes and come back with me."
