Chapter 2315 - Meeting an Old Friend (2/2)
The blue metal wolf continued its bath contentedly, ignoring the noisy dragons.
Han Sen could see that the wounds of the blue metal wolf were almost healed. After the days it had spent in the lake, it seemed almost completely restored to health.
“Can the water of that lake heal things?” Han Sen looked at that lake.
The lake looked very clear, and he could see the spring water bubbling up at its center. The steamy air was rising, but he couldn’t detect anything particularly special about it.
The lake was surrounded by mountains, trees, and vines. Some flowers were opening between the clouds. If it wasn’t for the lava sky, it would have looked like some sort of holiday resort.
Perhaps the rock dragons finally succeeded in annoying the wolf, because the creature stood up from the lake and roared back at them.
The rock dragons looked all shocked, and they surged back up toward the lava sky. They left the weird island below the lava.
As Han Sen considered the island, he concluded that the island might have been where the rock dragons lived. The blue metal wolf seemed to have taken it away from them. Perhaps that was why they were forced to leave.
And the blue metal wolf might have just been using the lake on the island to heal itself.
Han Sen was disappointed. The blue metal wolf’s wounds had almost healed. Even the King class rock dragons were now scared of the beast, so Han Sen stood no chance.
Han Sen released his hold on the rock dragon’s body and dived out of the lava sea. He wanted to return to the valley so he could go back to slaying xenogeneics.
Han Sen followed the winding path of the valley. After walking a thousand miles, he found a few more Rock Demons. He killed them and obtained their xenogeneic genes, but he still hadn’t received one of their beast souls.
Suddenly, he saw a shadow drop from the sky. It broke the atmosphere, heading straight for Han Sen.
Upon seeing the shadow, Han Sen’s face paled. He turned around with the intent to leave immediately, but that shadow was far too quick. It landed directly in front of Han Sen to bar his way.
“What? You are leaving so soon after seeing me? Do you not like me?” That shadow was a beautiful female guard. She smiled at Han Sen.
“Guard Red Sleeve, I have only met you once. I simply didn’t recognize you. How could I possibly not like you? I’m just in a hurry to hunt xenogeneics. If there is nothing else you desire, then I must go.” Han Sen turned around and started to leave.
Red Sleeve smiled and said, “My good little brother, in the King’s Garden, I believe you recognized your big sister, correct? Why would you say that?”
Han Sen shivered and forced a wry smile. He knew he couldn’t hide anymore. He turned around to face Red Sleeve, and her body had already changed. She had snow-white ears and a fox’s tail. Her face had transformed into one that Han Sen knew very well. It was Fox Queen.
“I see that my sister’s face looks the same as ever. You still look so pretty. I am so happy to see you.” Han Sen smiled, but his mind was in a rush about how to escape.
Fox Queen was bold enough to disguise herself as one of the Extreme King and get close to Prince Fourteen in the process. She must have planned something big. Now that Han Sen had learned that she was among them, there was no way she would be willing to leave him alive.
Han Sen hadn’t shown that he recognized her before, hoping that she wouldn’t realize he had recognized her. He thought it would take a while for her to find out that he had discovered her secret, and so he hadn’t expected her to come for him so soon.
