Chapter 1350: True or False

Chu Liuyue felt a pang in her heart. “Dragon bones?!”

“That’s right, and it seems like the owner of the bones had quite the high status in the dragon clan when it was alive. It’s very likely to either be the bones of an azure dragon or a black dragon.”

Perhaps it was because he had merged two skeletons from the dragon clan, but the current legendary three-eyed eagle was very sensitive to this. If not, it wouldn’t be able to identify the other party’s rough identity just through this half-exposed bone.

Chu Liuyue knitted her brows in confusion. There shouldn’t only be one bone buried here. It’s very likely… that an entire dragon had met its demise here! 

“Chu Yue? Chu Yue?” Elder Hua Feng called Chu Liuyue twice before she recovered her senses. “Did you think of something?”

Elder Hua Feng carefully sized her expression up.

Chu Liuyue shook her head rather regretfully, and her thin lips curled up slightly. “No. I just feel that it’s rather strange that such a white bone appeared here.”

“Perhaps a cultivator had died here before?” An elder guessed from behind. “Judging by this bone… he should at least be a demigod.”

But this was nothing surprising. This was the Flood-Desert Northern Region, and quite a few strong warriors had died here, so a skeleton was nothing.

Chu Liuyue nodded.

“Probably.” The few of them continued walking forward.

The bone incident didn’t attract anyone’s attention.

But after walking for a distance, Chu Liuyue discovered more similar bones. They were mostly buried underground. With the red sand covering them, if one didn’t take a close look, it would be very hard to detect them.

“Would these bones be related to that Heavenly Square Cauldron…” an elder couldn’t help but ask softly.

The crowd fell silent for a moment and exchanged glances. Actually, they all had such a suspicion in their hearts, but they didn’t bring it up the whole time.

It was fine if they saw one or two pieces from time to time, but one would appear every few steps during this entire journey.

And these bones were exactly the same as the first one. They glowed like crystals, and they seemed like white jade at first glance.

Thump!

At this point, a shocking sound was suddenly heard from the front!

Chu Liuyue’s heart tightened as she rapidly looked up! She saw a rock suddenly collapsing in front and dropping down rapidly!

It fell onto the ground harshly! At that moment, the ground vibrated, and sand flew everywhere!

The gully that was originally considered rather spacious became compact because of the presence of this gigantic rock, which almost blocked their paths.

Then, countless figures came out from behind the rock.

Chu Liuyue looked up.

There were about ten people, and one of the men was surrounded. Two fists were hard to fight with four hands, and the man kept failing.

Yet, those people that surrounded him all delivered lethal blows, so that man was beaten to the ground in no time.

“Die!”

The man—who was about to be killed—got up with much difficulty and wanted to escape. However, one of his legs was broken, and he was hanging onto his last breath, so how could he run?

Seeing that the longsword was about to pierce through his skull, he suddenly looked up and saw Chu Liuyue and the rest, almost using up all of his strength. “Save me! I’m begging you—save me!”

He struggled to climb over here. His face was filled with blood, and he panicked. “I’m the Liang family’s third young master, Liang Shaokang! As long as you save me, my Liang family will definitely repay you in the future!”

Chu Liuyue squinted her eyes slightly. Liang family… It sounds rather familiar. 

Shi Rui’er recognized his identity. “That’s Liang Xiaoxiao’s elder brother.”

Chu Liuyue instantly understood. Liang Shaokang, Liang Xiaoxiao… It’s no wonder I feel like I had heard his name before. In the entire God Residence Realm, there is only that one Liang family. 

The people who wanted to kill Liang Shaokang heard him report his identity, and their expressions instantly turned ugly. “You—”

The first person directly looked at Elder Hua Feng and the rest. Initially, he wanted to scold Liang Shaokang directly, but after seeing Elder Hua Feng and the rest, he instantly realized that these people were strong and weren’t to be trifled with.

He swallowed his remaining words with much difficulty, and his gaze swept across the crowd in shock.

The few people that followed behind him had already taken the opportunity to hold Liang Shaokang captive. His life and death would be determined by a sentence.

“May I ask… where you are from?” Elder Hua Feng took a step forward. “I’m Ling Xiao Academy’s Hua Feng.”

Once he said this, those few people opposite had their expressions change.

That man standing at the front immediately cupped his fists politely. “So you’re Elder Hua Feng. Sorry for not recognizing you. We come from Lingyun Mountain’s Su family.”

Lingyun Mountain’s Su family was always on bad terms with the Liang family, and it was normal for them to fight. But Liang Shaokang was the eldest descendant of the Liang family, so it was rather strange that they drove him into a corner.

“Elder Hua Feng, you must save me! Take it as helping my sister!” His younger sister was naturally Liang Xiaoxiao.

“I’ve already been chased by these people for a day and a night, and they’re bent on killing me. Elder, please save me! My Liang family will definitely be very grateful!” At this point, Liang Shaokang was like a drowning person, trying his best to clutch the last straw.

“Elder Hua Feng, this is a private grudge between Liang Shaokang and us. I hope you won’t intervene,” said the man at the front, who came from Lingyun Mountain.

They and Ling Xiao Academy essentially didn’t have much interaction, so they wouldn’t be on good terms as compared to the Liang family.

If Ling Xiao academy was bent on standing up for Liang Shaokang, then they might really be unable to do anything to him today.

Elder Hua Feng couldn’t help but ask, “What exactly is going on?”

“Hmph, you have to ask Liang Shaokang about this. If he didn’t set us up in the first place, why would we chase after him and kill him!?”

“He fabricated a huge lie and lured us over before taking the chance to harm us. He has already killed more than 20 people from Lingyun Mountain!”

“How could we not take revenge for this!?”

Upon hearing this, the crowd present was taken aback. If this is true, then it is understandable why they are insistent on killing Liang Shaokang. 

“It’s not like that! Elder Hua Feng, don’t listen to his one-sided story! I was lied to as well!” Liang Shaokang swallowed a mouthful of saliva with much difficulty. “Previously, we discovered traces of the Heavenly Square Cauldron descending and planned on going over to take a look when we met the people from Lingyun Mountain.”

“They initially wanted to cause trouble for us, but we didn’t want to waste time on this, so we just told them about the news. We even discussed properly and agreed that we would fight for the Heavenly Square Cauldron with our own abilities. After everything ended, we would then settle our grudges.” When Liang Shaokang thought of this, his body shuddered as if he had recalled something terrifying. “We set off on a journey to find it, but who knew it had nothing to do with the Heavenly Square Cauldron. And…”

Roar! 

A low and distant dragon roar came from afar!
