The calmer the place, the more dangerous it is.

Tang Zhong absolutely couldn’t believe what he was seeing in front of him.

He stopped Ling Xing: "Don’t go up there."

"Why, the Dragon is right up ahead," Ling Xing said in surprise.

"Something feels off, this definitely isn’t as simple as it looks," Tang Zhong said.

"It’s not that complicated, I have to get going." Ling Xing immediately got to work.

She rushed out, moving at a very high speed.

Tang Zhong’s expression changed instantly; he didn’t dare to go forward, fearing that if something was wrong, it would lead to trouble.

Ling Xing rushed out, but oddly, the Scythe Demons didn’t react at all and continued to sleep.

Without caring about anything else, she went straight to the place where the chains held Ding Dang, reached out and pulled at the chain that coiled around Ding Dang.

Tang Zhong kept watching from the side, knowing that such silence definitely meant something was wrong.

Suddenly, he saw the sleeping Scythe Demons open their eyes one by one, revealing red light.

Tang Zhong shouted when he saw this scene: "Not good, watch out."

He called out to Ling Xing: "Quick, come back."

Ling Xing heard the sound and saw Ding Dang, who was bound, suddenly open its eyes, shining red, and her face instantly turned ugly.

This wasn’t the Dragon; the Dragon has blue eyes, not red.

Ling Xing wanted to retract her hand, but the chain she was holding suddenly emitted black smoke, enveloping her hand.

Then, black chains appeared on her arm.

After that, Ding Dang began to transform, becoming a cloud of black mist with long limbs and a cunning look.

"Shadow Demon..." Ling Xing shouted upon seeing it.

Meanwhile, the surrounding Scythe Demons stood up, wielding scythes as they approached Ling Xing.

Seeing this, Tang Zhong secretly thought to himself that this time they were doomed.

Indeed, it was a trap.

He had to save Ling Xing.

But he needed to stay calm now.

Tang Zhong, holding the Dragon-breaking Staff, charged out.

Facing a Scythe Demon, he swung the Dragon-breaking Staff.

From the Dragon-breaking Staff, the Dragon’s Roar emanated, giving a sense of intimidation.

The Scythe Demon swung its scythe.

It was directly blown away by the Dragon-breaking Staff.

Then Tang Zhong extended a claw, grabbed the Scythe Demon’s throat, and squeezed hard.

In an instant, the Scythe Demon transformed into black mist, and a black crystal fell from its body.

Was this Scythe Demon dead?

What was this black crystal core?

"Be careful," Ling Xing shouted again.

Tang Zhong heard the sound, turned around, and saw a Scythe Demon attacking.

The Scythe Demon was very fast, as if not walking on the ground but flying in the air.

A scythe strike came.

Tang Zhong dodged immediately.

Right now, the only option was to dodge, but just as he dodged this Scythe Demon’s attack, another one attacked from behind.

Tang Zhong had to keep dodging.

The power of these Scythe Demons was indeed strong.

Damn it, there’s no choice but to transform into the Dragon.

Tang Zhong roared furiously, directly transforming into the Giant Dragon Avatar.

Still in human form, bone wings fluttering behind him, his speed increased significantly.

Crushing with the Dragon-breaking Staff in hand.

After transforming, his power soared, and those ordinary Scythe Demons were no match for Tang Zhong.

With a few moves, he shattered several Scythe Demons into black mist, from which black crystal cores emerged.

Those Scythe Demons obviously didn’t expect Tang Zhong to unleash such powerful strength.

They attacked together, uttering in their demonic tongue: "Kill... kill him."

Ling Xing also shouted: "Don’t be afraid, these are Low Rank Scythe Demons, their strength isn’t very strong, use your strongest power."

Hearing this, Tang Zhong summoned his most powerful strength.

Enveloping with a roar.

As his power flowed into the Dragon-breaking Staff, it began to evolve, transforming into another form.

Tang Zhong was holding back because he had never fought a Scythe Demon before and wasn’t sure of their true power. Now that Ling Xing had said the Scythe Demons weren’t formidable, then it must be the case.

He roared, Dragon’s Howl.

Suddenly, a powerful roar spread around.

The Scythe Demons stiffened in place upon feeling the shock.

Tang Zhong saw this as a great opportunity, one that couldn’t be missed.

His body flickered continuously, swish-swish-swish, with the Dragon-breaking Staff in hand, piercing through the Scythe Demons’ bodies directly.

When Tang Zhong stopped, those Scythe Demons transformed into black mist, with black crystal cores dropping from their bodies.

Now the Scythe Demons were all dead, leaving only the Shadow Demon.

But at this moment, the Shadow Demon began to panic upon seeing its companions fall, preparing to flee.

Tang Zhong saw through its intention: "Trying to escape, no way."

Tang Zhong flashed to the Shadow Demon’s side, delivering a blow with his palm.

The Shadow Demon only had the ability to shapeshift, lacking combat strength, and was blasted away by the palm strike, collapsing on the ground, with its black aura weakening.

Then Tang Zhong went to its side and thrust the Dragon-breaking Staff into the ground.

Instantly, Vajra was released, suppressing the Shadow Demon.

Tang Zhong wouldn’t kill the Shadow Demon; to find out what happened, he needed information from it.

Then Tang Zhong walked up to Ling Xing, looking at the black shackles on her hand.

Ling Xing had touched the black shackles, and now they were on her hand.

So Tang Zhong absolutely must not touch them.

He had to figure out another way.

Now, the only way was with the Dragon’s might.

Then Tang Zhong began to transform, extending his foot.

The human foot instantly turned into a Dragon Claw.

With a sudden stomp of the Dragon Claw, click, the chain was crushed open. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝓮𝒘𝙚𝙗𝒏𝙤𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝒐𝙢

Ling Xing returned to normal.

"Are you alright?" Tang Zhong asked.

Ling Xing seemed very remorseful now, speaking quietly: "I... I’m fine, I was really too reckless just now."

Ling Xing thought carefully now; she really was too impulsive, if only she were alone here, acting recklessly, she would only have faced doom.

This time, Tang Zhong truly saved her.

"Thanks to you this time," Ling Xing said to Tang Zhong.

Tang Zhong replied: "It’s no big deal, we’re all Dragons. Should we check out that Shadow Demon now? Maybe we can get some useful information from it."

Ling Xing nodded: "Yes, I definitely felt the Dragon’s aura, meaning these Scythe Demons indeed found the Dragon and took it away. But when we got here, we walked into a trap. The reason for this situation, I suspect, is someone tipped them off when we were on our way here."

Upon hearing this, Tang Zhong’s first thought was the woman from the circus: "First ask the Shadow Demon for information."
