Looking back, it was all like a fairyland.

On an open space in the mountains and forests.

The demon was half-kneeling on the ground, his body covered with burn marks left by thunder. No part of his body was intact, and his black bones were weird. Several white peregrine falcons stood on the branches, combing their hair and staring at the demon.

The three black dragons transformed into human forms and stood in three directions of the demon.

The demon wasn't dead yet, but he would be soon.

He was too weak to fight anymore and was gasping for breath.

"Hehehe." He laughed strangely a few times, as if mocking himself, but also as if mocking others.

"I didn't expect...I still failed..."

His broken words were hoarse and unpleasant, and his upper and lower jaws opened and closed as if he had used up all his strength to say these words.

In the devil's belly, wind and thunder continued to roll, and the real dragon ball was temporarily appeased.

The black dragons ignored the demon's muttering.

Now we just need to wait until the Dragon King of Guangling River arrives so that we can take it out of this demon. This demon is now equivalent to a container and cannot be taken out rashly.

Otherwise, this whole place will turn into a swamp.

They were not able to control such a huge amount of water vapor, which was why the demon did not die.

Su Mu also came in front of the devil.

The devil's only remaining eye looked at Su Mu: "You are inferior to others in skills and despised by heaven. If it weren't for those youngsters getting in the way..."

If Su Mu hadn't come, he could have killed these dragons with his plan.

Ultimately, everything started with Shi Xia.

If they had not heard from the traveling merchants that there was an evil road and thought there were demons on it, they would have been prepared to go and slay the demons.

If the demon had not intended to tease Shi Xia at that time, he would not have let Shi Xia escape, and he would not have been rescued by Su Mu. Su Mu would not have used the demonic energy to fight him and lost part of his essence, attracting the full attention of Su Mu, an extraordinary being.

The method he originally used against those dragons actually became a breakthrough.

Everything has a cause.

The ending was determined before Su Mu met Shi Xia.

That would be self-destruction.

Fate is really unpredictable.

Su Mu fell into deep thought after hearing this. The more powerful one becomes, the more unpredictable fate becomes when faced with it. Is Su Mu strong now? She is extremely strong, but she is still affected by fate. Of course, it is not her own initiative. Fate cannot completely control Su Mu, but can only guide her through a series of cause and effect.

Still not strong enough.

Now he still cannot avoid being affected by cause and effect and the five elements.

Su Mu was not worried. Just because he couldn't do it now didn't mean he couldn't do it in the future. He was growing every moment now, and he had to take one step at a time.

Also, maybe facing your fate is a good thing.

If you don’t even know what fate is, how can you break free from it and stay away from it?

Only by knowing yourself and the enemy can you be victorious in every battle.

The road to cultivating Taoism and truth is still long.

Back to the present, Su Mu agreed with what the devil said: "You are right."

"Ok?"

The demon's already cloudy eyes became clearer as he looked at Su Mu and said, "I...didn't lose unfairly."

Then his eyes dimmed again and he said no more. It was already too late to change the situation. With Su Mu around, his chances of winning were not high even in his prime, let alone now. Sometimes accepting one's fate was a kind of contempt.

There is a reason why this demon is so powerful.

Several black dragons seemed to be hesitant to speak, and in the end they didn't say anything.

Su Mu looked at the dragons with amusement.

They looked a little embarrassed. To be honest, their feelings towards Su Mu were quite complicated. Dragons were the leaders of all scales, and they were proud of it. But Su Mu stepped on them and crushed their pride to pieces. Logically, they should have felt resentment, but the fact was that they didn't, not at all.

The sword strike by Su Mu not only restored the City God's clarity of mind, but also challenged the dragons to question their true intentions. This resulted in them not having any resentment in their hearts, but instead feeling grateful. As mentioned before, they were proud but not stupid.

After understanding the cause and effect, they realized what the consequences would be if Su Mu did not stop it.

Also, the dragon clan is a demon clan, and the law of the jungle has a certain influence on the dragon clan, who admire the strong.

Generally speaking, even if you are stepped on, you should still thank others.

I just don't know what to say to lighten the atmosphere.

Su Mu didn't know what these dragons were thinking, but it didn't matter even if she knew. She just let them be.

At the same time, he was thinking that he must educate Hei Li well. If he became like this after becoming a dragon, Su Mu would let him know what love was.

Black carp: unexpected disaster.

Thinking of this, he waved to a few peregrine falcons, and the peregrine falcons turned into talismans and returned to Su Mu's sleeves.

The black dragons are quite envious, the immortal's methods are magical.

"What are you going to do next?"

Upon hearing this, several of them replied respectfully, "Your Excellency, we need to wait for the Dragon King to arrive before we can retrieve the Dragon Pearl. Thank you for your help, Your Excellency."

This attitude really improved after being beaten.

Humans are mean, and dragons are no different.

"Then I'll wait with you guys to avoid any accidents."

Su Mu really wanted to meet the Dragon King. She wondered what the difference was between him and these dragons.

Several dragons bowed to express their gratitude.

The True Dragon Ball cannot be lost. With the Immortal Venerable's care, it must be safe. Even if Su Mu didn't say it, they would have asked to keep it. There was another reason for this. They helped you so much, don't you have any expression of gratitude? The proud dragon clan would not think so.

But the things they have in their hands are not good enough, they must take out treasures that match the Immortal Lord.

Only the Dragon King could possess such a treasure.

It is a recognized fact that the dragon clan is wealthy, but to say that they can match the attack of the Immortal Lord is definitely not enough.

Alas, I feel sad. I hope the Dragon King will take them with him, otherwise I will lose face again. They may just ignore it. Su Mu didn't ask for any reward anyway, but pride doesn't allow it. In fact, these dragons are still quite awkward. This may be the nature of the race.

Waiting in such a nervous mood.

Fortunately, the weather was fine because the dragons had retreated, so it was okay to stay in the wild for a few days. Su Mu even took the time to leave for a while to renew the inn's bill, otherwise it would be bad if the old goat was kicked out of the stable.

Several dragons were very nervous, afraid of accidents.

Su Mu didn't have this feeling. This devil was only being kept alive by the dragon ball. Otherwise, he would have been killed long ago and there would be no need to guard him.

As for the real dragon ball, Su Mu observed it.

It is very special, the senses are like a treasure containing true spirit.

Su Mu asked casually while roasting by the fire.

"How come you guys lost this real dragon ball?"

Upon hearing this, several dragons smiled bitterly and replied, "It's because we haven't learned enough."
