Chapter 755 - 754: Frost Bone Dragon: Forget it, I won’t argue with a mosquito like you

The Frost Bone Dragon was embedded in the stone wall.

Its bones CRACKED and CREAKED. Several of its Dragon Bones had been kicked to pieces.

The pale blue Soul Fire in its empty eye sockets flickered, and its mind simply short-circuited.

If... it had a mind to begin with.

In its memories, spanning several million years...

...the Races that could go toe-to-toe with the Dragon Race in terms of pure strength...

...were exceedingly rare, few enough to count on one hand.

And among them, there was absolutely, definitely no Mosquito Race!!!

Even if you expanded the scope to the entire Insect Race...

...there was still no existence that could suppress the Dragon Race in strength!!!

But the facts were laid bare before it.

A White-striped Aedes Mosquito, not even as big as a person’s palm...

...had, in fact, sent it, a Frost Bone Dragon, flying with a single kick, breaking several of its bones in the process.

’Could it be a member of the Giant Race in disguise?’

’Did it use some special Transformation Spell?’

This was the only possibility the Frost Bone Dragon could conceive.

Because only the Giant Race could possibly rival the Dragon Race in strength.

But it scanned the mosquito meticulously with its Divine Thought.

There was no trace of any Transformation Spell.

’Impossible. I must not have looked carefully enough.’

The Frost Bone Dragon, refusing to give up, scanned it again.

This time, it saw everything clearly enough to count the stripes on Chu Sheng’s body.

The final result was...

...its opponent’s true form was, indeed, just an ordinary White-striped Aedes Mosquito.

’I’ve only been dead for a hundred thousand years. Has the world changed this much?’

’Can mosquitoes really become kings and contend with the Dragon Race now?’

An absurd scene couldn’t help but materialize in the Frost Bone Dragon’s mind.

Mosquitoes, the lowest of the low, who should have been sitting at the same table as ants...

...suddenly swaggered over to the table of the Dragon Race and the Giant Race, demanding a seat alongside them.

But there were simply too many mosquitoes. A dense, dark swarm of them directly squeezed the Dragon and Giant Races right off their chairs.

The lead mosquito even announced...

...that from now on, the Dragon Race and Giant Race could only squat on the floor to eat.

Only the White-striped Aedes Mosquito clan was worthy of a seat at the table.

And the Dragon and Giant Races, facing White-striped Aedes Mosquitoes that were a hundred million times smaller than them...

...were fuming but silent, forced to obediently squat on the ground.

The reason was simple.

While the individual strength of a Dragon or Giant wouldn’t necessarily lose to a White-striped Aedes Mosquito...

...the number of White-striped Aedes Mosquitoes was over a hundred million times the combined total of the Dragon and Giant Races.

If a real war broke out...

...they could be worn down to death!!!

That scene...

Just imagining it sent a chill down the Frost Bone Dragon’s spine, making its Soul Fire flicker wildly.

Seeing the Frost Bone Dragon alternating between being dazed and trembling...

...Chu Sheng flapped his wings impatiently and flew in front of its skull.

"Hey, you bag of bones, are you still going to fight or not?"

"Give me a straight answer."

Hearing this, the Frost Bone Dragon’s Soul Fire wavered, and it hesitated.

It still had something very important to do.

After being sealed for a hundred thousand years, it had finally waited for the Secret Realm to open.

It was finally unsealed and revived; it had to complete that task as soon as possible.

If it continued fighting this bizarre mosquito...

...even if it could eventually kill it, it would waste a lot of time and might even miss its opportunity.

For the Frost Bone Dragon, this was an absolutely unacceptable loss!

The Frost Bone Dragon hesitated for a moment, then its enormous draconic head slowly nodded. Its voice was deep and hoarse.

"Fine, I won’t fight you."

"I’ll leave now and let you pass."

It decided to take a step back and not quibble with this freakish mosquito. Tending to its own business was more important.

Hearing the Frost Bone Dragon actually compromise...

...the surviving Huo Lang and Big Y’s eyes went wide in an instant, their jaws dropping open wide enough to fit a fist.

’The proud Dragon Race, bowing its head to a mosquito in defeat and voluntarily making way?’

No, seriously...

What in the world is wrong with this world?

Is it this crazy?

Huo Lang felt his entire worldview completely collapse.

He pulled on Big Y’s arm, his voice trembling as he spoke.

"You... you pinch me. I need to see if I’m dreaming."

"Oh~"

Big Y responded, placing her right hand on Huo Lang’s armpit.

And then...

...she unleashed all the power of the Late Stage of the Profound Realm!

...and gave it a vicious TWIST!!!

"HISSS~"

Huo Lang’s eyes bulged even wider, nearly popping out of his skull. He convulsed in pain, sucking in a dozen sharp breaths.

If not for the terrifying Frost Bone Dragon and the mosquito that could make it bow its head right in front of them...

...he absolutely would not have been able to endure Big Y’s pinch and would have started howling in agony like a wolf on the spot.

Huo Lang rubbed the spot forcefully for a good while before the pain gradually subsided.

"Sister Y, why’d you use so much force? Are you trying to kill me?!"

Big Y looked aggrieved, tugging at the corner of her clothes and blinking.

"Didn’t you tell me to pinch you hard?"

Huo Lang frowned, his tone laced with uncertainty.

"Did I tell you to use force?"

"Didn’t you?"

"Did I?"

"Didn’t you?"

"Did—"

"Stop!!!"

Huo Lang quickly cut it short. This could go on forever.

"Any more of this, and we’ll get censored by the harmony police!"

After their round of mutual questioning, they temporarily suppressed their shock and refocused their attention on the scene.

Although they had been through many twists and turns...

...the final outcome was undoubtedly for the best.

’Since Chu Sheng asked the Frost Bone Dragon if it still wanted to fight...’

’...isn’t the meaning obvious?’

’If we don’t fight, we go our separate ways.’

’And the Frost Bone Dragon decided to let the mosquito leave.’

’It will leave too.’

’What more could a mosquito say?’

’Leave separately and go about your own business. Anyone would do that.’

’Even a mosquito would surely be no exception.’

Once the Frost Bone Dragon and Chu Sheng both left, who would pay any attention to two small fries like them?

’We finally escaped with our lives.’

The two of them simultaneously let out a sigh of relief, the joy of surviving a disaster spreading across their faces.

Huo Lang heaved a long sigh and patted his chest.

"The process was tortuous, but we finally survived. It wasn’t easy."

"Mhm~"

Big Y nodded vigorously, a smile also on her face.

Just when the two of them thought the story would proceed according to normal logic, with everyone going their separate ways...

...Chu Sheng slowly spoke.

His voice wasn’t loud, but it reached the ears of Huo Lang, Big Y, and the Frost Bone Dragon with perfect clarity.

"You think you can just leave?"

"What?"

The Frost Bone Dragon was taken aback.

Its massive draconic head tilted slightly, not understanding the meaning behind Chu Sheng’s words.

It replayed what it had just said in its mind.

’I said I wouldn’t fight and that I’d let Chu Sheng leave.’

’In other words...’

’...I, a magnificent Frost Bone Dragon, am not going to bicker with a mosquito. I’ve taken the initiative to back down.’

’That’s magnanimous enough, isn’t it?’

’There’s nothing wrong with that!’

It had already set aside the pride of the Dragon Race to concede. What more could a mere mosquito want?

But Chu Sheng’s next words completely upended the Frost Bone Dragon’s worldview and nearly extinguished its Soul Fire with pure rage.

"If you’re not going to fight, then hurry up and kill yourself. Don’t waste Lord Mosquito’s time."

Chu Sheng’s tone was flat as if he were discussing some trivial matter.

The Frost Bone Dragon froze, its Soul Fire flickering madly.

’Just look at this.’

’Just look at this.’

’Is that something a person would say?’

’No, is that something a mosquito would say?’

’A mosquito is telling me, a great dragon, to commit suicide, and it thinks I’m wasting its time?’

’This can’t even be called arrogant and domineering anymore.’

’This is pure, blind conceit!’

’Blindly believing...’

’...that you, a single mosquito, can take down a Frost Bone Dragon!’

’Even though you had the upper hand in strength just now...’

’...that was just a casual blow from me! I wasn’t using my full power at all!’

’Do you really think you can challenge the Dragon Race?’

After a moment of stunned silence, the Frost Bone Dragon was utterly enraged.

An overwhelming chill erupted from its body, and the surrounding temperature instantly plummeted to the freezing point.
