Looking at the cliff at his feet, Lu Mingfei began to regret coming to this college.
At first, he thought that as long as he kept a low profile enough, even if there were dragons, he would not have the chance to face them.
But who knew that this thing seemed to be grabbing him, and he couldn't even hide away!
Last time, I clearly took on the task of being an interviewer, but inexplicably got involved with Dragon Slaying and even provided remote support.
Forget it, this time it was even more outrageous, the dragon flame was almost burning his butt!
No matter how you think about it, this pace is a bit too fast, right?
There is still time to upgrade before beating the game boss! As soon as he left the novice village, he had to face the big boss. What a fool!
Are you just waiting to die like this, or are you really going to jump off the cliff like Old Tang said? Looking at the cliff in front of him, Lu Mingfei thought. I don’t know if the plot of encountering a strange encounter after jumping off a cliff and suddenly improving my skills will happen to me.
By the way, there’s also Lu Mingze!
Lu Mingfei seemed to have grasped the last straw.
That's right, if it's the mysterious guy who calls himself the devil, he probably has a way to solve the current predicament, right?
So he yelled filial piety in his heart without hesitation.
The scene in front of him changed, and he came to a shop.
The words engraved on the plaque on the facade made the corners of his mouth twitch.
"Devil's Office"? What the hell? Does the devil still need to open a shop and do business?
What made him even more speechless was that there was a sign hanging on the door handle of the closed glass door in front of him that could be seen by people outside. The sign read - Temporary business trip, will be back soon.
"****"
Lu Mingfei couldn't help but curse.
Business is coming! Such a critical moment! This guy just happened to be away?
He wouldn't believe it to death.
Since he was able to come here, it was obvious that that guy must be nearby.
But the other party doesn't respond to him now, and he has nothing to do.
"Damn! What to do!?"
Lu Mingfei panicked even more. He looked at the cliff in front of him.
"Do you really want to jump?"
"Find a good route! Let's slide down the cliff and onto the road below. We should be able to survive!" Old Tang said his plan.
But what if it slides down?
Lu Mingfei didn't ask.
It was obvious that this time they were really cornered.
The monsters behind have wings. Even if they don't die, they will be injured if they slide down. They can easily catch up immediately.
Even if they take ten thousand steps back, they are lucky to be uninjured. Will they be able to escape with their legs by then? ?
So what exactly should we do now?
Lu Mingfei knew that he didn't have much time left to think.
The temperature behind me is getting higher and higher, and the heat wave keeps coming.
This means death is approaching.
How close? Lu Mingfei didn't dare to look back. He was afraid that if he turned around, he would see that ferocious face already in front of him.

It takes courage to face death, and he has not yet reached that state.
After all, it is too much to ask a teenage boy to see not only the world of mortals but also life and death overnight.
However, Lu Mingfei soon realized that his fear seemed to be unnecessary, and it seemed that he did not need to die.
because……
The monster didn't seem to be targeting him.
Fiery winds roared past.
"Old Tang! Senior sister!!"
Lu Mingfei was stunned for a long time before he reacted and shouted.
The fiery figure rushed out the two people beside him as if embracing him, and its burning wings spread out in the night sky like a cross of fire.
At this moment, Old Tang and Nuonuo were nailed to the cross.
What awaited them both was likely death.
Lu Mingfei suddenly felt sad.
He didn't know why the monster didn't choose him as its target instead of the other two, but he knew someone was going to die soon.
One was his only friend before he came here, and the other was a loyal girl who drove a Bugatti and chose to protect him in times of crisis.
The flames are burning and roaring.
Old Tang, who was caught by the monster, seemed to have fainted due to the impact of the attack.
I saw the figure burning with flames using its hot claws to take off the carried Nuonuo from Old Tang's body.
She held them both in the air with one hand.
Lu Mingfei could see the hot claws mercilessly embedded into Nono's grabbed abdomen. The gorgeous dress on her body was burned, and the white skin had melting marks on the edges where the claws touched. , the blood was evaporated almost instantly under the high temperature.
Not only the abdomen, but the temperature around the monster's body must have been frightening at this moment. Nono's exposed skin gradually turned black, and a look of pain appeared on the originally beautiful face that was sleeping.
She probably woke up from the pain.
"It's over."
Lu Mingfei thought so in his heart.
How many seconds can humans withstand such high temperatures?
Lu Mingfei couldn't think of it.
At this moment, his mind went blank, he almost stopped thinking, his knees gradually bent, and finally he knelt down weakly on the ground.
Yes, he can't do anything.
Suddenly, Lu Mingfei remembered that Lu Mingze seemed to have reminded him many times not to be like before...
Now that he has chosen to enter the world here, he should face the so-called 'destiny' with a more serious attitude, but he has been evading it by pretending not to take it seriously.
It wasn't until this moment... that real life was passing before his eyes that he realized that this was not a joke.
This is a fate that cannot be escaped once you embark on this path.
"Brother, do you understand now? How weak and powerless you are."
The voice came from behind.
Only then did Lu Mingfei realize that the burning figure in mid-air seemed to have become still at some point. Because of this, the deaths of Nono and Old Tang were extended indefinitely.
He turned around blankly.
I saw Lu Mingze who was 'returning from a business trip'.
"Where did you run to!!? Quick! Help..."
"Shh-"
Lu Mingze raised his finger to signal Lu Mingfei not to panic.
And Lu Mingfei really calmed down, of course not of his own free will.
Lu Mingfei, who was unable to speak at this moment, realized that he had always been... the weakest one. Why could he talk to a devil in such a tone?
"Have you calmed down? Okay, brother, I actually did this with good intentions..."
Lu Mingze sighed, "If I don't let you experience it for yourself, how will you understand your own powerlessness?"
As he spoke, Lu Mingfei found that he seemed to be able to speak again: "I know now! That's why I came to you for help! Quick! Help me save—"
"Why……"
Lu Mingze sighed again and sealed Lu Mingfei's mouth.
"It seems that you still don't understand? Of course I hope you can trade with me. After all, I am a devil, but at the same time, I am also a conscientious businessman. When doing business, who doesn't want smooth business? Don't be so arbitrary before making a decision. , just like now...
What price are these two people worth for you to pay to save them? Have you thought about it carefully? Another example is if you exchange everything you can for me in two or three times...
When you encounter something that makes you regret the most, what can you do to reverse it?
Everything comes at a price, my dear brother.
Although saying this sounds a bit like cutting off one's own financial path, that person asked me to remind you——
Instead of asking others for help for everything you encounter, why not put your hope on yourself? For example, how about making yourself stronger? "
As soon as the words fell, Lu Mingze's figure disappeared, and time seemed to begin to flow.
"Isn't this the time to talk about this!? It's something that will happen later! How can we save them now!?"
Lu Mingfei, who was able to speak, asked subconsciously, "And...who is the 'that person' you mentioned...?"
"Look back, the answers you want are all there."
Lu Mingze's voice came slowly.
Lu Mingfei turned back abruptly.
puff--
The blade stretched out a stream of light in the night sky.
The spilled blood burned in the fire.
Something was falling from the sky, the burning arm of the burning monster.
The man held the short knife in his mouth, holding Nuonuo with one hand, and fell expressionlessly in front of Lu Mingfei. At this moment, there was still a trace of hot blood burning on the blade of the other hand.
"There's...there's one more!"
After seeing the face of the person in front of him clearly, Lu Mingfei was ecstatic.
Yes, if anyone here can deal with this monster, it can only be this man.
Sun Haoran!
This is a legendary figure who came to this academy not long ago as a dragon slayer. Others may think that Fingel's news is exaggerated, but Lu Mingfei knows... This is probably the first time Fingel has been so euphemistic. of writing press releases.
"See clearly, that one... doesn't need our rescue."
Sun Haoran's tone was cold.
"then."
Before Lu Mingfei had time to figure out what was going on, the injured Nuonuo was already thrown towards him.
Soon, he understood why this man said that Old Tang did not need their rescue...
Lu Mingfei looked at Old Tang in surprise, who was still caught in the hands of the terrifying monster. There was no sign of struggle on the sleeping Old Tang's face at this moment, but he was sleeping very peacefully! The burning hot flame seemed to be completely unable to hurt him!
"What the hell does this happen!?"
"Don't you understand? Your friend is not a human being."
Sun Haoran left these words blankly and jumped up with the knife in both hands.
"..."
Lu Mingfei stared blankly at the figure flying towards the monster in mid-air.
The amount of information was a bit too much, and he couldn't react for a while.
Roar--
A painful roar came from Constantine's mouth.
She remembered her brother saying... it was impossible for humans to hurt them, and those who could kill them... should be those 'brothers and sisters'.
But what's going on with this human being now! ?
In confusion, Constantine flapped his wings and prepared to take off.
There is really no need for her to continue to tangle with these humans, because she has already 'rescued' her 'bewitched' brother from these despicable humans! There should be nothing humans can do in front of her who has control of the air.
But the sharp pain in his back the next moment made him scream again.
The rapid sword light passed by mercilessly, and Sun Haoran's figure jumped up and instantly exceeded the height of Constantine's flight.
In the blink of an eye, the wings wrapped in flames snapped.
boom--
The Dragon King twins hugged each other in mid-air and fell on the road around the mountain.
Sun Haoran followed closely behind, swung his knife to shake off the burning blood stained on it, and slowly approached the direction of the hole and the rising flames on the ground.
"..."
Lu Mingfei looked at the monster in shock as he tried to leave but was easily chopped down.
This man is still so scary.
As the assister, he could clearly see the process of slaying the dragon before. At that time, the man used many methods, such as using dark armor and walking in the air. But now it seems that these are not used and he can easily do it. They suppressed the scary guy who chased them for a long time.
Maybe they were too weak... In short, Lu Mingfei couldn't understand such power.
Lu Mingze seemed to say just now... is this the answer to the question he asked?
In other words, that guy Lu Mingze was on a business trip just now to move reinforcements?
Also... it seems that 'that person' who said he became stronger is also this man.
Lu Mingfei clenched his fists and stood on the edge of the mountain top, looking at the figure below who looked like a warrior god.
Since this man reminds himself to become stronger... then in other words... if he wants to become stronger, he can ask this man for help?
"Shocking, right?"
A gentle voice that sounded old came from behind.
Lu Mingfei turned around: "School... principal?"
"Um."
Angre nodded indifferently, walked to Lu Mingfei's side, and looked down with some emotion at the figure below who was gradually approaching the target 'Dragon King' that he wanted to kill throughout his life.
"I have marveled at the mysterious power of the East more than once. Unfortunately, even if I have the qualifications at my age, it seems a bit too late to start practicing now."
"'Mysterious...power'?" Lu Mingfei was a little confused, "You mean...he is not using a hybrid power now?"
"Yes." Angers nodded slowly. There was nothing surprising about this, but any normal person could see that a mixed-race species would never be able to reach this level by relying solely on the power of dragon blood. "They don't care about this... ...It's called 'cultivation', or to put it more closely to a mortal, it's probably...'qi refining'. Do you see the black mist on this man's sword now?"
"I saw it... Could it be..."
"This is probably a form of the so-called 'Qi', right? It's just that he seems to be special among all 'Qi' refiners, so this 'Qi' should also be extraordinary." Angers touched his chin and thought. And sighed, "Rather than an ordinary 'Qi', it feels more like the 'True Qi' used by that guy I saw when I visited Longhu Mountain."
"Which guy?" Lu Mingfei said he didn't understand at all.
"Oh, I forgot you weren't there at the time..."
Ange smiled bitterly and shook his head, "Anyway, you just need to know that there is a Dragon Tiger Mountain over there. The Zhengdao man on the mountain once...killed a first-generation dragon clan with one sword. Yes, it was the same as the one on the river before. A big guy of the same level. And the 'Qi' he used at that time, I heard him say, is 'True Qi', a power that can only be possessed by those who have cultivated to the extreme of mortals and are only one step away from becoming immortals."
