Guilongchao: I played the domineering CEO to the bone.

"calm!"

"What do you want to do?!"

Just as the peacock was about to get excited, two people pinned it against the wall from both sides.

The visitors were none other than the cuckoo and the white dove.

"Ah...? You two are here?"

The peacock stared blankly at the two of them, a barely perceptible hint of disappointment flashing through its mind...

I almost convinced myself to make a move on the woman who had slept with my master.

The white dove pressed its cool fingers against the peacock's carotid artery for a moment, then frowned slightly and looked at the peacock with some confusion.

"What are you doing here? Your heart rate is so high, your blood is so hot, and you're so bloodthirsty. Are you still not out of combat mode?"

Upon hearing this, the peacock suddenly became as proud as a peacock, tilting its chin to the side, raising its head, displaying the large banner in its hand, and proudly replying:

"Heh~ It's just a task for my master~"

That tone, that smug little look in his eyes, made Bai Ge's heart skip a beat...

Why say something like that in this tone?

It's like your owner told you to play with toys in the park?

Du Juan looked bewildered, trying very hard to understand what the peacock meant—what is all this? I wasn't like this when I received my master's task.

But seeing that the peacock seemed to have calmed down, he let her go.

Du Juan and Bai Ge didn't ask any further questions about the mission. Seeing that Tong, Guang, and Hui were setting off again, they asked Kong Que:

"So, you'll come with me from now on?"

The peacock nodded haughtily, as if to say, "I'm doing you a favor by traveling with you."

"also."

Du Juan, who is usually silly but tries to act like a mature adult, seems to finally understand why Kong Que is not popular in their organization.

..............

"Waaaaah, Director Tong~ I thought I'd never see you again in this lifetime, waaaaah..."

Okay, okay, okay~

"Waaaaah, I risked my life to make this movie for you, you know that? Waaaaah..."

"It's all my fault, it's all my fault, it's all my fault~"

"Director, you lied! Didn't you say the place with the 'cocoon' was the safest? Waaaaah... How come as soon as I walked in, people started shouting and yelling to kill me?!"

Hitomi originally wanted to say, "Don't be afraid, everything is under control," but after thinking about it, she felt it would be unfair to Hikaru, so she changed her words to:

"My mistake, my mistake..."

Meanwhile, Little Grey, who had clearly listened attentively to the explanation about pupils, tried to liven things up by jokingly saying:

"AUV, that's pretty strange. Could it be a scene you deliberately designed, director?"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Guang stopped sobbing and looked at Tong, hoping for an explanation—Director Tong wouldn't deliberately put her best friend in danger just to film a hero-saves-the-damsel-in-distress scene, would she?

But... but... based on what I know about her...

She...she really could do that!!!

Tong glared at Wang Hui fiercely—if you can't comfort me, don't talk nonsense and keep causing me trouble!

"Oh dear~ I'm innocent...!"

This farce lasted for more than ten minutes before Xiao Guang recovered from the shock of the life-or-death crisis.

Once he calmed down, Xiao Guang realized that he must have suffered from a lack of education—if he had a thorough understanding of the Dragon Realm, wouldn't he have been able to handle things much better?

So she asked Tong to explain it to her again.

After hearing this, I couldn't help but exclaim, "Then the Lord of the Dragon Realm seems to be a formidable figure... If I were to become the Dragon Realm, it would definitely be overflowing with money!"

“Then it’s settled. If I ever get the chance, I’ll sneak into your Dragon Domain and steal your ‘legacy’.”

"Little Grey, you—"

"Alright, alright, Little Gray, Little Light, let's stop fooling around. The Dragon Realm is too dangerous. Let's hurry up and think about how to get out."

Tong had a feeling that something was off about this Dragon Realm, making even this seasoned dragon feel uncomfortable. She had entered many Dragon Realms to complete various missions, but few had made her feel uneasy.

"Alright, the upcoming filming schedule might be a bit difficult, so I, the director, will personally join the cast. The finished film will definitely shock the Kowloon film industry!"

Tong is that kind of person. Even though she knows that returning to reality will likely require a tough battle, she never forgets to inspire herself and others in the face of unknown adventures, finding joy even in hardship.

"You're still thinking about making movies?!" x2

Xiao Guang and Xiao Hui, the two competent straight men, made timely sarcastic remarks, which indeed made me feel much more relaxed.

Follow Sister Tong, she'll take care of the professionals.

The three supported each other and went through more than ten battles, big and small. Monsters emerged from behind screens, in shadow puppets, and on roof beams time and time again, making them impossible to guard against.

Fortunately, the three gray-eyed individuals looked out for each other, and while on guard, they also paid extra attention to the other two. Besides, the monsters weren't particularly strong; at most, they were only as powerful as the opera singer they had just encountered.

In short, the three of them managed to stay safe and sound throughout the journey.

(The peacock followed behind the three, and Kuku picked up the corpse.)

After about an hour, there was only one one-way street, unlike before when there were so many forks in the road, and it only led in one direction.

Xiao Guang had a bad feeling—could it be that we'd end up at that ominous place?

"Hehehe~ Another unlucky soul has accidentally wandered into the Dragon Realm~?"

Xiao Guang was thinking and not paying attention to where he was going when suddenly a short, big-headed doll-like figure appeared in front of him. It wore a mask, was extremely ugly, and had a voice as high-pitched as a eunuch's.

Tong was on guard and stopped in her tracks. Xiao Guang bumped straight into Tong's back, causing Tong to stumble from her fighting stance.

My light, it really gives you a strong push-back feeling!

"Director? Little Grey? There's a strange guy talking to us. Should we talk to him?"

Xiao Guang was still asking in a low voice, his senses heightened, while Xiao Hui had already condensed an ice spike and launched it.

"This guy doesn't even look human!"

Having experienced his first baptism of bloodshed, Wang Hui's mind and nerves were extremely sensitive, fragile, and tense at this moment!

My mind is filled with thoughts like: Fight my way out! Fight my way out! When in doubt, kill! Kill anyone who gets in my way! I need to get out and get some sleep! Otherwise, I'll really go crazy!

Although he outwardly tried to maintain the same carefree attitude as before.

Although Tong's mentality wasn't as despondent as Xiao Hui's, she still agreed with Xiao Hui's idea. Suddenly, she raised her gun and swept it horizontally, unleashing several water jets that surged and roared like waves, pouring towards the masked man—

The ultimate technique – a strike that will go down in film history!

"Little Grey is right."

Xiao Guang was left standing there, stunned—her weapon (backpack) had already been ripped open by her swinging, and if she swung it any further, it wouldn't be able to hold anything anymore.

Looking left and right, Xiao Guang couldn't find anything useful, not even a decent brick...

"Biaozi—!"

I had no choice but to pick up Biaozi!

"Waaaaah..."

The excessive amount of exercise he did previously caused Biaozi to still be paralyzed in all four limbs, delirious, and unable to muster any strength.

Even though she couldn't speak clearly, she tried her best to wave her hands, wanting to show her refusal.

"...You consume so many of my Nine-Fang Coins all the time, but you're useless when it really matters?!"

Biaozi was not swayed at all; he just kept shaking his head and waving his hands.

"As a divine beast, you should be quite robust, right?"

Xiao Guang didn't understand Biaozi's refusal. He grabbed Biaozi by the tail, lifted him up, weighed him in his hand, and said with ill intent.

"I... I may not be a divine beast, but you really aren't human either!"

Biaozi snapped back to reality in a second, only to be met with Xiaoguang's enigmatic, half-smiling expression.

"See, he's awake now, isn't he? Have you forgotten that I used to work part-time as a veterinarian? It has to be me—the medical genius, Hikaru."

In the brief moment that Xiao Guang and Biao Zi were locked in a stalemate, the short, ugly demon had already been beaten up by a combination of attacks from Tong and Xiao Hui, jumping up and down and screaming, revealing a series of information:

For example, it's called the Wise Eye, and this Dragon Realm is a forbidden area of ​​the Thousand Meetings...

Qian Xiang Ren?

After hearing what it said, Tong wasn't afraid at all; instead, she became even more excited.

"Little Grey! Give it a good beating! It's Thousand Faces Society, wanted by the Dragon Suppression Division! We can catch it and collect the bounty!!!"

"A bounty!?"

Wang Hui, who had almost gone mad from the killing, suddenly had clear eyes!

It possesses a dragon curse of the Viper rank, which is one rank lower than Tong's, yet it still managed to unleash an even more ferocious attack than Tong.

Of course, one reason is that Wang Hui wants to contribute more and get a bigger share of the bonus. Another reason is that the "rules" associated with Wang Hui's Dragon Curse are advantageous in the direction of strong attack, while Tong is advantageous in breaking through and is better at breaking through the enemy's various defenses (in the game it is resilience, but this is the real world in the Return of the Dragon Tide, so talking about resilience is absurd). In the direction of the "rules" that can be mobilized, the output is naturally not as high as the output of the strong attack advantage.

The discerning eye noticed that even the reputation of the Thousand Meetings hadn't deterred the two men; on the contrary, it seemed to have provoked them—could it be that these two had come seeking revenge?

Although our Thousand Faces Society has been established for quite some time, we've only recently started to be high-profile, right? Aside from official figures, we haven't offended many other people, have we?

"What are you doing? Hey! You should have just said you were from the Dragon's Blood! This place is open only to those from the Dragon's Blood!"

Huiyan ran to a gate with a mechanism, then suddenly stopped and turned around, still with that same playful tone—but only he knew how nervous he was inside.

Seeing that it wasn't running away, Tong and Wang Hui, fearing there might be some trap on the mechanism behind it, also rationally stopped.

"If I can't beat you, I'll just beg for mercy, won't I? Since you're so eager to chase after it, I'll let you in to find 'it' then."

Having said that, Huiyan casually waved her hand, opening the mechanism door and disappearing inside in a flash—far faster than when Tong and Hui had chased her…

Tong's eyes narrowed slightly—it dares to hide its strength even while I'm chasing it? It feels like it deliberately lured us here...?

Before Tong and Wang Hui could think further, the mechanism was about to close automatically, but Xiao Guang was still on his way, and they couldn't leave him behind...

Tong and Xiao Hui exchanged a glance, perfectly understanding each other's thoughts:

Then just smash the door down, it's just a door after all.

Doorway: First of all, I haven't done anything to you... uh—

With Hikaru and the other two arriving, they stepped over the ruins of the mechanical door and went deeper into the area.

This brings us to the fact that Tong and Hui chased after that wise-eyed person for several minutes, yet they didn't manage to harm a single hair on his head.

The world was only achieved when the mechanism door was damaged.

"What exactly is that thing?"

Seeing that the crisis was over, Xiao Guang decided to continue her great cause of seeking knowledge in the Dragon Realm.

"...It should also be dragon remains, but of a lower grade, probably the residue of the Dragon Domain's main force."

Xiao Guang was willing to learn, and Tong naturally offered her guidance, making a judgment based on her own perspective.

"The 'it' that guy is talking about might be the final dragon skeleton. If we destroy 'it,' we can leave this hellhole."

As they walked and talked, they soon arrived behind a huge red iron gate, like a curtain obscuring a stage—and the three men with gray pupils looked like actors about to go on stage.

"This scene truly sparked my inspiration—I had this feeling from the beginning, a play within a play within a play, the monsters are all wearing costumes, and we are like actors who were led here..."

"I really want to start writing the script right away, and then use this location to shoot a lot of movies!"

Wang Hui, a master at pouring cold water on things, immediately interrupted Tong's enthusiasm:

"Director, calm down. I can hear noises behind the door—that thing is probably not simple."

Tong: "If the monsters aren't tough, how can I show off my majestic presence as the director?"

Guang: "Since you're so experienced, why don't you go scout ahead?"

Tong: "You're so good at pressing, are you preparing for graduate school?"

"His-"

The trio were joking around as usual, and were in a relaxed mood when the iron gate suddenly opened as if a piece of cloth had been torn in the middle, revealing the dragon skeleton inside: the Thousand-Handed Golem.

Upon its appearance, countless giant hands grabbed and pounded at Tong and the other two. The fingertips of those giant hands were as red as blood, but the palms and knuckles were exceptionally pale, and there were even colorful eyes growing from the palms, making them ferocious and terrifying.

Tong and the other two hurriedly dodged left and right, barely managing to avoid the first wave of sneak attacks, looking somewhat disheveled.

Immediately afterwards, countless giant hands parted to reveal a huge head with wide, angry eyes. On top of the head was a terrified face with eyes blazing with fire, roaring with imposing power.

The eerie, iridescent eyes in the palms of those giant hands could even spew pillars of fire...

After a difficult battle, the boss fight ended with Xiao Guang and Biao Zi holding back the giant hand, Tong quickly finding and exploiting the dragon skeleton's weakness to paralyze it, and Xiao Hui swiftly dealing damage to kill it completely.

Tong felt something was off—during their coordinated fight, Xiao Hui and she weren't working together very well.

Although she hadn't fought alongside Little Gray much—based on her understanding of Little Gray, after being slapped away by the monster, shouldn't he have been thinking about catching her? Why was he acting like a fool, not cooperating at all, only thinking about dealing damage?

Little Grey: How do you know that the moment I have the thought of catching you, my body inexplicably gives me a warning... as if something terrible is about to happen.

In the end, Tong didn't ask the question or complain. After all, Xiao Hui probably didn't have much combat experience, and Xiao Hui was also glad about that.

After encountering so many troubles, shouldn't Chan Chan's reverse prophecy finally come to an end?

You've really worn out, Gray Brother...

As the Thousand-Handed Golem crashed to the ground, Hitomi and the other two adopted a victorious posture, chatting and laughing. Seeing a spatial rift appear not far away, they excitedly prepared to walk out—too lazy to even finish off the attacker.

Tong and Xiao Guang trusted Wang Hui, believing that his recent outburst must have killed the dragon skeleton beyond repair.

Wang Hui was also very confident in himself. This was the first time he had faced such a powerful monster, the first time he had unleashed his full power of the Dragon Curse, and the first time he had defeated such a powerful monster to the point of being unable to rise again. Wang Hui believed that he had definitely killed the monster, and he was a little excited.

The Thousand-Handed Statue was also very confident; it believed its superb acting skills had surely fooled the three overconfident dragon heirs before it...

Silently and without a sound, a giant hand rose behind the three men, including the one with the gray pupils, intending to use its last strength to drag them down with it!

..........

In the shadows, Peacock and his two companions happened to encounter a young Taoist priest who had just entered the Dragon Realm.

"Good friends, those three are in danger! Quickly follow me to save them!"

The young Taoist priest raised his talisman, ready to join the battle, but was stopped by Peacock's large banner.

"No need for your trouble, we will take care of it."

A woman who has already been labeled as the mistress should not be allowed to have too much contact with other men.

And that ash... I'll deal with it later...

The young Taoist priest, Zhu, had been following the clues all the way here and was already reluctant to waste time. He was also very anxious. When he saw Kong Que say this and stop him, he could sense that the woman in front of him was definitely no less powerful than him. If they got entangled, it would definitely be a tough battle.

Moreover, seeing that the two people beside the peacock were also about to make a move, he hesitated for a second, then nodded, bypassed the area, and rushed deeper into the Dragon Domain.

And so, the threads of fate were disrupted, and Zhu, who was supposed to meet Tong for the first time at this moment, failed to step in to save the damsel in distress.
