  The Slime Armies had all been eliminated, and various weird mist creatures, who once tortured the Sword Palace disciples to death, all revived.

  These weird mist creatures had various shapes, but they had the same characteristic: silence.

  Even when they hunted and ate each other, they didn't make any noises.

  Killing in silence and dying in silence. The whole Island of Mist was like a silent world, rejecting all living beings from the outside world.

  Occasionally, several slimes who were good at hiding popped out from the ground, but before they moved their round bodies, mist creatures had found them, rushed forward and chomped them.

  After losing their predominance and their leader the Dark Shadow Spider Queen, even the giant slimes couldn't hold any longer in front of these mist creatures.

  On the contrary, after eating the special slimes, the mist creatures started a new round of evolution.

  Yun Xi and Yun Que watched this scene from the beginning to the end. They were really looking forward to seeing the Mist Demon.

  Maybe the Mist Demon could be a trump card on the balance of their war with Shaya Longnis, the Sky Sword!

  Even though in the eyes of the local people of this world, the Mist Demon was the most frightening nightmare and the enemy of all living beings, but it had nothing to do with them.

  In order to defeat the Sky Sword, Yun Que even made the crazy "Expansion Plan of One Million Brides", not to mention to cooperate with the Mist Demon.

  For victory, I can do everything!

  "Can you tell me more about the Mist Demon?" Listening to the butterflies' whispers, Yun Xi felt more confused about the Mist Demon's true appearance.

  "Very very good..."

  "Very very puff..."

  "Woohoo! Woohoo!"

  "Puff! Puff!"

  As the highest Butterflies of Death, these silver butterflies talked with Yun Xi happily.

  Unfortunately, their word orders were incoherent and their adjectives were messy. Perhaps it was because they had never talked with other intelligent beings before, their hearts were as pure as a white paper. They didn’t know how to organize their words and said anything that popped into their minds.

  Finally, Yun Xi confirmed that the Mist Demon had the following features:

  The Mist Demon's body is very big.

  The Mist Demon is very soft, and often makes mysterious sounds such as "Woohoo", "Boohoo", "Puff", "Whoa".

  In the eyes of the Butterflies of Death, the Mist Demon is trustworthy. It is a very special being.

  After scraping these features together, a sleeping giant appeared in Yun Xi's mind.

  The Butterflies of Death were the dead fairies around the giant.

  The bone dragon was the giant's guardian.

  The whole Island of Mist was created for the giant, and the giant had a very special relationship with the Water God's world.

  The Mist Tide was probably a disaster caused by the giant, and it was also a part of this world's rules.

  When the bone dragon ran about wildly, Yun Xi and Yun Que finally arrived at the mysterious core area of the island, where was probably a place that no human has ever stepped on from the birth of this world.

  "Is this the center of the Island of Mist?" Looking at the opening world in front of him, Yun Xi raised up his head with a surprised look.

  In front of Yun Xi and Yun Que, was a great tree covering the sky.

  As being surrounded by milky white mists, the great tree's crown had broken into the clouds in the far away sky. Countless silver branches drooped to the ground from the great tree. When winds whipped across them, they made strange "Woohoo! Woohoo!" and "Puff! Puff!" echoes, which sounded like the great tree's breathings.

  One 100 metres tall totem pole after another circled around the great tree, and these totem poles were standing tall and upright in a silver lake. One silver butterflies after another flew and danced around the totem poles with emitting soft white lights.

  "Is it the Mist Demon?"

  "Most likely. After all, the tree meets all the features." Yun Xi's eyes slowly looked the tree up and down. Suddenly, he saw a large shadow in the deepest side of the silver lake.

  When he looked at the shadow carefully, a familiar feeling filled his heart.

  It has translucent diamond head and three sharp silver horns, can it be...

  Yun Xi wiped his eyes as his back began to soak in cold sweat.

  Yun Que also saw its true appearance. Her eyes contracted.

  It had a silver streamline body and graceful sleeping posture, but nothing could cover the great sense of pressure they had when they saw it.

  Even if it had folded its silver blue wings, Yun Xi didn't think that he could misjudge that which he saw.

  The White Holy Dragon!

  The chief criminal who broke the void door of White Lotus Sword Domain. The chief criminal who knocked down the floating ship "White Lotus" inadvertently. The chief criminal who made Yun Xi have to enter this trial - the Apostle from the outside god's domain.

  It was a subordinate of one of Yun Xi's ex-girlfriends, the Dragon God.

  And also, it was the mysterious main character of Yun Xi's Side Quest Two. Yun Xi wondered why he couldn't find any clue about this side quest, now, he knew the answer.

  "Optional Side Quest Two: The Apostle's Call. A great Apostle has reached this world. Swear your loyalty to her and become a Dragon God's subordinate! You can choose this side quest after you join Water God's camp."

  "Optional Side Quest Three: The Truth about the Mist. The people on the island are living in a world that is surrounded by endless mist. Go find the secret and expose the truth!"

  It seemed that the sleeping silver dragon felt something, it lightly shook its tail and emitted an obscure sound from its mouth.

  "Ku!"

  Chapter 268: How to Strike Up a Conversation with a Dragon (1)

  Are you kidding me? How can I accomplish this quest?!

  Looking at the sleeping White Holy Dragon, who was also known as a legend ranked creature that could break through the void, Yun Xi thought that the stars must be making fun of him.

  This quest wasn't at the same level as the other three side quests.

  How could he persuade the Apostle, who crossed the void to catch him, to join his camp?

  On this point, Yun Que didn't perform any better than him.

  The legend ranked creature's fear pressure, even though it was just breathing in sleeping, was still almost fatal to both of them.

  "About this... I have no idea." For the first time, Yun Que admitted that she could do nothing.

  In front of the legend ranked dragon, no tactic would be effective.

  Even if she sacrificed herself, her hero ranked attack wouldn't even be able to pierce through the White Holy Dragon's skin.

  Generally, no legend ranked beings were allowed to enter a common god's domains, because they were too strong. Even if they did nothing and just came to a god's domain, their existence itself would wreak havoc to the domain.

  Typhoons, thunderstorms, earthquakes, volcanic eruptions... if a god's domain was too small, it would burst open due to the legend’s strong power.

  The White Holy Dragon was such a legend ranked creature! Its power was actually beyond the limit of the energy hierarchy in most god's domains!

  There was no way to fight against such a strong creature!

  "It's strange. Can this world accommodate two legend ranked beings?" When the initial shock wore off, this question immediately appeared in Yun Que's mind.

  The Water God's world, just like its name had showed, it had already had a master, the Water God, who was undoubtedly at the legend rank.

  Plus the frightening White Holy Dragon, and Shaya Longnis, the Sky Sword who was trying to enter this world, this world could accommodate three legend ranked beings.

  But it can't be possible!

  For example, White Lotus Sword Domain was a low-level sword domain and it coul
dn't even let a legend ranked being enter it. It was apparent that the Water God's world wasn't larger than White Lotus Sword Domain, how could it hold so many legend ranked beings?

  This world is too strange! Yun Que immediately sensed danger from it.

  "Yun Que, do you understand dragon language?" Yun Xi smiled bitterly and asked Yun Que with expectation.

  They had to do it.

  In Yun Xi’s three side quests, this side quest was apparently very important. He must gain the sleeping White Holy Dragon's trust.

  Who would expect that the Mist Demon had such a good relationship with the White Holy Dragon!

  Through the clear lake, Yun Xi could clearly see that the Mist Demon was wrapping around the White Holy Dragon's body with its roots. Countless milky white light points secreted from the roots and were absorbed by the dragon's huge body.

  The milky white light points were full of vitality. Apparently, the Mist Demon was helping the White Holy Dragon heal itself. They had a special relationship.

  Combined with the Side Quest Two, Yun Xi confirmed that the White Holy Dragon was here for some reason. It seemed that this legend ranked creature had a friendly relation with the Water God.

  But what could hurt the legend ranked White Holy Dragon so badly? Yun Xi had no clue.

  "I know a little about dragon language." Yun Que wasn't bragging. She once had a battle pet, the male fiery dragon, so she did study dragon language very hard once upon a time.

  Compared to human languages, dragon language was hard to understand. Human vocal cords weren't likely to pronounce dragon language very precisely, because only dragons could master this language instinctively.

  Yun Que's understanding about dragon language was like a baby's understanding about human language.

  She could only say very few sentences such as "Let's have dinner", "Sorry", "Thank you" and "This is a pen".

  "Ok, I want to talk with the White Holy Dragon. Can you translate my words?" Yun Xi took a deep breath and walked forward.

  The stars wouldn't give him a quest that was impossible to accomplish. Since the Side Quest Two existed, then there must be a method to solve it!

  What change had happened to him?

  Undoubtedly, it was "he has become the Water God's Apostle". Yun Xi thought that this was his only turning point.

  "I will do my best." Yun Que didn't know what Yun Xi was going to do, but she appreciated his courage.

  Not all people dared to open their mouths after seeing such a huge, legend ranked dragon.

  Even though she had experienced countless battles, she still hadn't had any contact with any legend ranked supreme beings.

  "Fine, let's go!" Yun Xi put on a bold face. He walked to the sleeping White Holy Dragon step by step as if he was walking to the execution ground.

  Thick mists gushed out of the White Emperor Mask and formed a palm of one kilometer, then lightly touched the sleeping dragon's head.

  As if a switch in the dragon's body was turned on, the White Holy Dragon was awakened.

  It slowly opened its two giant eyes and gazed at Yun Xi and the mist palm with a confused look.

  "Sorry, excuse me for bothering you."

  Yun Xi apologized to the White Holy Dragon for his rude behavior.

  "Hollow, good mourning!" (Hello, good morning!) Yun Que said trying her best to translate for Yun Xi.

  Yun Que was beating her brains out trying to remember the dragon language she had learned. In her memory, this sentence should be "Sorry, excuse me for bothering you!" in dragon language.

  Chapter 269: How to Strike Up a Conversation with a Dragon (2)

  The huge White Holy Dragon's body was surrounded by an aura that was simply breathtaking.

  The legend ranked creature, whose sighting had already shaken the sky and earth. It appeared that it hadn't known what was happening. Unconsciously, it slightly shook its slender tail.

  To the dragon, it was a natural movement, just like humans would curl up when they woke up on a cold winter morning.

  However, the White Holy Dragon's body was over one hundred thousand metres long! It just simply shook its tail, then caused an earthquake on the island.

  The seismic origin was the dragon's tail. With ear piercing whistles, hundreds of metres tall waves were rolled up and pounded heavily on the Mist Demon tree's roots.

  "Shuffle!" The Mist Demon tree quickly proliferated several branches of ten kilometers long, tying the dragon's tail in case that it caused much larger earthquakes and surges.

  Such a negligible movement had caused such a huge disaster, that it could even kill all the residents of a city of a hundred thousand people. This was how terrible a legend ranked being could be.

  It wasn't even on purpose or for killing, it was simply because such a legend ranked being’s existence itself was just so overwhelmingly powerful.

  Just like a meteorite falling into a pond, the aftermath of that would be enough to kill all the fish and prawns.

  Unfortunately, most ordinary beings, in all but a few god's domains were like the unlucky fish and prawns in the pond. Only hero ranked beings, such as Yun Xi and Yun Que, could survive such a disaster, and only just survive.

  The White Holy Dragon didn't realize what a disaster it had caused. After shaking its tail, it murmured something and closed its eyes again.

  "O ya su mi? What does this mean?" as Yun Xi wiped his forehead.

  When your conversation partner was a dragon of one hundred thousand metres long, nothing you could do could be described as "excessive caution". When the dragon shook had its tail, his heart had almost jumped out of his throat.

  Will I die here? Looking at the White Holy Dragon's huge tail, Yun Xi felt as if he had seen the end of the world.

  "I think it means 'good night'..." Yun Que was even more nervous than Yun Xi, because she knew how terrible a legend rank being could be better than him.

  If it was her, she wouldn't talk to the dragon at all. After all, if an ant tried to stop a human, would the human even realize it?

  Compared to the dragon's long life, humans, even hero ranked humans, were like mayflies who are born in the morning and died at night.

  Not to mention that it was a legend ranked White Holy Dragon, the rarest divine dragon who was blessed by the Dragon God.

  What was Yun Hai thinking? How dare him talk to the dragon and even touch its head!

  Yun Que thought that she may be unable to understand his way of thinking for the rest of her life. Maybe she could call it one of the most incredible mysteries in the universe.

  "Good night…?", Yun Xi looked at the dragon oddly.

  The silver dragon could even destroy a world, and now, it is sleeping in?

  Ok, Yun Xi knew it was being irreverent to the dragon, because, why would such a holy, strong dragon sleep in like a spoiled little girl?

  But his instinct told him that it was the truth.

  "Yun Hai, I know you are blessed by the Water God, so probably this silver dragon won't attack you. But... it's time to give up." Yun Que rarely gave Yun Xi suggestions, but... it was really too dangerous to stand here and talk to the silver dragon!

  An ant couldn't have any relationship with a human, it was natural that they couldn't talk with the silver dragon. When the gap between their life levels was too wide, they should learn to give up.

  We are not even as large as one of the dragon’s scales. What gives Yun Hai the guts to face the dragon and even touch its head?

  Even if he didn't have a fear of dying, there should be a limit to his courage!

  "Sorry, I won't give up, because I have to do this." Yun Xi smiled bitterly. If he had any other choice, he wouldn't do this from the start.

  Apparently, the stars were exposing his past life to him bit by bit in this manner.

  Now, he was wearing the White Emperor Mask so he wasn’t afraid of his true identity being exposed. There wouldn't be a better chance than this to get in touch with his ex-girlfriends' Apostles.

&n
bsp; Know the enemy and know yourself, and you can fight a hundred battles without defeat!

  If he wanted to survive his four ex girlfriends' hunting him, he must collect the information from their Apostles!

  This is a dream world, and my identity is the Water God's Apostle, Yun Hai, but not that of the wanted Starchild! Yun Xi kept repeating that to himself over and over. Finally, he pulled up his socks and touched the dragon's head with the mist palm again.
