2983 Another One Bites The Dust 2 (1/2)

If Gu Xijiu had not arrived in time, Little Pink would have been long dead.

It seemed the fortune was on its side as the black candle dragon was now also irritated by his master's betrayal as he attacked the pink candle dragon despite promising not to hurt it.

Additionally, its master had disregarded the trust that they had both built over the years by controlling the candle dragon against its will.

The man was ruthless to it, so it wanted to return the favor to him.

He insisted on finding Gu Xijiu, so it decided to guide him farther away instead.

Besides trying to get back at its master, Little Black also felt the need to protect the one it loved. The further away it brought its master, the safer she would be!

The thought of Little Pink being killed definitely worried it.

Meanwhile, the pool of magma in front of it now was vast. Fan Qianshi had spent a significant amount of time searching through the boiling hot magma. Little Black began to worry as there were no signs of movements on the surface of the magma.

Had the magma melted the man? Why hadn't he emerged?

Logically speaking, Fan Qianshi would remain unharmed even if the magma suddenly became crazily hot. His Kung Fu was far too good to allow him to succumb to the heat, but the oddity of the desert shook its faith about his abilities. Many things could still go wrong.

Little Black only intended to mislead him and had no intention to take its master's life. Therefore, the longer it waited, the more impatient it became.

Candle dragons were born with tough scales that were impenetrable by water or fire.

Little Black, however, was quite afraid of the heat. Hence, it refused to get too close.

But after waiting for some time, it wondered if it should go in and check on Fan Qianshi.

While it was still trapped in its anxiety, a man could be seen rising from the magma. Fan Qianshi was back, and definitely alive!

Little Black quickly hid its face behind its claws for a moment for it to regain its composure. It had to keep calm as if nothing had happened.

”They are not in there,” Fan Qianshi announced, while gracefully making his landing. ”Little Black, what do you have to say for yourself?”
