Chapter 101 The Old "Dragon" Reappears

As they slowly approached, the branches of the trees not far away swayed more and more violently.

As they approached the tent, the owner of those three pairs of eyes was revealed.

There were three Crimson Blood Wolves!

They drooled as they gently lifted the tent flap. Inside, Qi Yan and Yun Zhao were fast asleep, seemingly unaware of the impending danger.

The Crimson Blood Wolves entered the tent, and one of them walked up to Yun Zhao's head and bit down hard.

"Aww--"

A leaf suddenly flew in from outside the tent and pierced straight into the Crimson Wolf's foreleg. If it hadn't dodged quickly, it would have pierced its head.

Yun Zhao and Qi Yan suddenly opened their eyes. Instead of attacking the Crimson Blood Wolf, they joined forces with the three wolves to trap the thing on the tree branch.

After parting ways at the Song family's forbidden area, Qi Yan collected many valuable items from Qi Han, including a Heavenly Net that could trap even a Nascent Soul cultivator.

The thing in the tree was no exception.

Seeing that he was trapped by them, Yun Zhao turned on the light-up artifact to see what exactly was playing tricks on them.

The lights came on, illuminating a certain Jiao's embarrassed face.

"Well," Hanmujiao swished the tip of his tail, "nephew, niece-in-law, I hope you're both doing well. Uncle wishes you a Happy New Year in advance..."

Yun Zhao and Qi Yan exchanged a glance, and without prior arrangement, they both took out clubs and started beating the Cold Wood Dragon!

Two Crimson Blood Wolves also joined the battle, occasionally scratching with their claws.

The screams were incessant. The wounded Crimson Wolf, having stopped bleeding, watched the Cold Wood Dragon howl with schadenfreude.

Should!

You stole my loot, you hurt me with leaves—I'd rather you were dead!

The Coldwood Dragon let out a mournful cry, but it was not seriously injured. It had strong defenses, and Yun Zhao and Qi Yan did not hit it hard. It only had a few bumps and claw marks on its body.

After venting his anger, Qi Yan carried the Cold Wood Dragon in one hand and went into the tent with Yun Zhao.

During the day, while Yun Zhao was talking and reading stories with the Crimson Blood Wolves, he secretly conspired with them to stage a fake fight at night to lure out the "thief" behind their backs.

The bad things said about the "thief" were meant to provoke him and make him give himself away.

While Yun Zhao was making up lies, Qi Yan appeared to be setting up a tent, but in reality, he was monitoring the surroundings.

But what they didn't expect was that the "thief" was actually Han Mujiao!

The Crimson Blood Wolves entered the tent to launch a sneak attack as planned. The next step was originally to wake Yun Zhao and Qi Yan up, fight them, and thus bring out the "thief".

Unexpectedly, Han Mujiao's intervention disrupted their plans.

However, the result was good; they did indeed find the "thief" behind it all.

"Speak," Yun Zhao tied the Cold Wood Dragon in a bow, "Why did you steal our things?"

Han Mujiao secretly untied himself and muttered to himself, "Hey, this is a family matter, how can you call it stealing? What's wrong with my nephew borrowing some spiritual herbs from his uncle?"

Yun Zhao didn't speak, but took out a dagger and stuck it only one millimeter away from the tip of the Cold Wood Dragon's tail.

She smiled slightly and said, "I'll give you a chance to speak again."

Hanmu Jiao: "..."

It swallowed hard and stammered, "Nephew, nephew's wife, what I mean is, I have a little gift here, as a way to make up for the last time we met that I didn't give you."

After saying that, it pulled out a small mountain. Yun Zhao observed its expression and saw that it looked extremely distressed.

Yun Zhao was satisfied. "I can't accept this. You've gone to so much trouble."

Han Mujiao secretly rolled his eyes and said, "Sorry, then don't accept it!"

Of course, he only thought about it and didn't dare to say it out loud.

"Well," Han Mujiao glanced at Yun Zhao and said to Qi Yan, "nephew, can you untie me now?"

"It's uncomfortable being tied up like this," it groaned and twisted its body.

“No,” Yun Zhao tied it tighter, “you still haven’t told us why you took our things.”

Having at least given her a gift, she was a little more careful with her wording.

When Qi Yan saw Han Mujiao looking at him, he shrugged and said, "Don't look at me, I can't make the decision."

Hanmu Jiao: "..."

It stammered, "This story goes back to a month ago. I was just staying at home when, for some reason, I woke up here and found myself with most of my cultivation gone."

At that moment, the entire dragon was completely dumbfounded. It had only taken a nap, so how could its home be gone and its cultivation level lost?

The Spirit Void Secret Realm is teeming with high-level demonic beasts. The little dragon, having lost its cultivation, can only tremble and hide here, trying not to be discovered and eaten by them.

After all, the Coldwood Dragon Clan is a great tonic for demonic beasts.

After saying this, Han Mujiao felt that Yun Zhao's gaze towards him was a bit strange.

Yun Zhao stroked his chin and looked Han Mujiao up and down. "I wonder if my three good friends outside would like to eat this."

Han Mujiao chuckled dryly, "This, this joke is quite funny, huh? I'll continue, I'll continue..."

During this time, Hanmu Jiao hid from powerful demonic beasts and searched everywhere for spiritual plants to restore his cultivation.

But those spiritual plants are all guarded by demonic beasts, so it... really can't get close.

Yun Zhao raised his hand. "I have a question. Just how low has your cultivation level dropped? You can't even get close to those demonic beasts."

Han Mujiao coughed, "Well, it's not that low, it's just, that realm..."

Han Mujiao spoke unclearly after that, and Yun Zhao had to listen several times before he could understand what he was saying.

Its cultivation level has dropped to the Qi Refining stage; any rabbit or chicken in this secret realm could easily eat it.

"Cough," Yun Zhao tried his best to suppress his laughter, "Is it that bad?"

However, I couldn't help but laugh.

Hanmu Jiao: "..."

It's hugging itself. Don't laugh, it's withdrawn!

"Later, I saw you all and thought that I could get the spiritual herbs from you and repay you after I recovered my cultivation."

“That’s not right,” Qi Yan pointed out the flaw, “You have so many spiritual artifacts in your storage space. Just take out any one that can conceal its aura and you can blend into the spiritual plants guarded by the demonic beasts, right?”

Han Mujiao paused for a moment, "Do you think I would tell you that I, at the Qi Refining stage, can't even open a storage space?"

Yes, it will tell them.

After hearing Han Mujiao's explanation, Yun Zhao and Qi Yan finally had no more doubts.

Only after the Cold Wood Dragon had recovered to the Foundation Establishment stage could it open its storage space and take out the gift for Yun Zhao.

More spiritual plants would be needed to restore its cultivation level, so Hanmujiao tried to negotiate with the two of them, offering to exchange its accumulated spiritual artifacts and other rare treasures for them to serve as its henchmen for a period of time.

After discussing it for a while, Yun Zhao and Qi Yan agreed.

Spiritual plants are common, but spiritual artifacts are rare; the secret realm is full of spiritual plants.

The magical artifact that Hanmu Jiao took out was truly enviable.

"Of course," Han Mujiao said proudly, raising his head. "I got all of these from those cultivators. I don't want the inferior or low-quality ones!"
