Longevity begins with slaying demons and eliminating demons

Chapter 704 Jiang Zhaoyue: My crush is a hero

Beneath the surface of the Tiangong Floating Island, there is a heavily guarded prison cell hidden.

At first glance, it doesn't seem to cover a large area, but the interior space is as spacious as a city.

The inside of the cell was pitch dark, like an abyss that swallowed up all light.

The dome is supported by several ancient and sturdy stone pillars, on which complex patterns are carved, and mottled bloodstains are faintly visible.

A silver dragon several dozen feet long was tied to these stone pillars with thick metal chains.

The cold chains penetrated her scales and dug deep into her body.

As long as she struggled a little, the chains would immediately tighten, followed by an even more terrible tearing pain.

Nearly 50% of her silvery-white scales had been lost, and her flesh and blood were exposed, which looked horrifying.

At the same time, the new scales were growing slowly at a speed visible to the naked eye, emitting a silvery-white light like moonlight, adding a faint brightness to the dark cell.

However, as soon as these scales were formed, they were violently peeled off by an invisible force. The silver dragon howled in pain, and blood gushed out from the wound like a spring.

At this time, several buckets would always appear out of nowhere next to her wounds and collect all her blood without a drop being left.

The blood of dragons is an extremely precious material for alchemy.

As a dragon princess and the younger sister of Emperor Ye, Jiang Zhaoyue's bloodline is far more powerful and pure than that of ordinary dragons.

During the days that Jiang Zhaoyue was imprisoned on the floating island, many cultivators in the Heavenly Palace used elixirs made from her blood to improve their cultivation and strengthen their bodies.

At first, gods would come to this cell from time to time and interrogate her about the coordinates of the world of Dahuang and the situation of Ziwei. When she didn't speak, they would peel off her scales even more.

Jiang Zhaoyue kept her mouth shut, even though her body was already riddled with wounds and the pain was overwhelming her consciousness like a tide.

Of course, she would never think that she was so persevering just for the safety of that guy Gu Xu.

She just told herself over and over again: You are a noble dragon, how can you bow your head and kneel because of such insignificant pain?

Sometimes, she would fall into a state of confusion due to excessive blood loss, and vague memories of the past would flash through her mind.

There was the chaos and haziness before she broke out of her shell, the carefree childhood when she was raised by her sister, all kinds of unavoidable misfortunes, the strange things she saw when she traveled through the void to the wilderness world, and the ups and downs of the love story that Gu Xu had told her...

She also tried to sense her sister Jiang Miaoyin's current situation through the blood connection.

But since Ye Huang went to the Great Wilderness alone after the destruction of his tribe, he unilaterally severed the blood connection, just like she had before.

This made Jiang Zhaoyue only feel that his sister was still alive, but he knew nothing about her specific situation.

But for some reason, today, my sister suddenly had a very strong and complex emotional fluctuation——

There was a mixture of shock and anger.

This was an emotion that had almost never appeared in my sister before.

In Jiang Zhaoyue's eyes, his sister has always been a mature, calm and almost ruthless leader.

Her face seemed to be covered with a layer of frost that never melted. No matter what happened, even in desperate situations, my sister could always remain calm and make the most rational decision quickly.

Jiang Zhaoyue really couldn't understand what had happened to make her sister lose her composure like this.

  Thinking of the love stories that Gu Xu had told him, and the heroines who were often startled by love, Jiang Zhaoyue couldn't help but guess in a daze, could it be that her sister had also met the man destined for her during this period?

"If I can get out of this broken cell one day, I will definitely catch my sister and ask her what happened..." Even though she was tortured to death, Yinlong still couldn't change her curious and gossipy nature. But the question is... when can she get out?

Tai Shang Haotian’s strength is too powerful.

This cell is actually part of his Dao realm.

Although Jiang Zhaoyue is an eighth-level strongman with authority, under the restrictions of the rules of this cell, every bit of her strength is firmly restrained and she is completely unable to exert it. She can only be slaughtered like a fish on a chopping board.

If she wants to get out, she can only rely on external forces.

The first person she thought of was, naturally, her sister.

But deep down, she didn't want her sister to save her at all.

Taishang Haotian's power is infinitely close to the peak of Lingxiao Realm. Jiang Zhaoyue, who is on the floating island of the Heavenly Palace, can feel the suffocating sense of oppression more and more deeply.

Although the dragon clan has powerful bloodline and outstanding talents.

However, it is accompanied by an extremely long growth process, and the higher the realm, the slower the speed of improvement.

If Ye Huang wants to catch up with Taishang Haotian in strength, he must shed his skin twice more and master the power of incense in a world - at a normal growth rate, this may take thousands of years. Coming to the Tiangong Floating Island rashly now is undoubtedly a suicide move.

Then, Jiang Zhaoyue thought of Gu Xu, who came to Lingxiao Realm with her in his clone.

Unfortunately, Gu Xu is only a seventh-level cultivator now, and his clone is slightly weaker than his original body. In this Lingxiao Realm, he is unable to call on incense and exert his full strength.

His original intention of coming to the Lingxiao Realm was just to wait for an opportunity to fish in troubled waters between the major forces.

As for breaking into the floating island in the Heavenly Palace to rescue her, that was undoubtedly a fantasy.

……

The more Jiang Zhaoyue thought about it, the more lost he felt, and a sense of despair welled up in his heart.

She thought that she might have to stay in this dark cell without sunlight for hundreds or thousands of years, or even be imprisoned here for her whole life and suffer torture.

Before she knew it, she fell into coma again.

At the moment when her consciousness was about to fade away, a sentence that Gu Xu had said to her when he was telling her a story suddenly emerged in her mind:

"My crush is a great hero. One day he will come to marry me on a rainbow cloud."

  I, Jiang Zhaoyue, am I destined to have a peerless hero who can overturn this floating island and save me from the sea of ​​suffering?

…………

Dahuang, Yishui County.

Gu Xu, with the Night Emperor who had transformed into a crow, found Zhao Yan and Shangguan Jin who were strolling here, and returned to the team patrolling the territory of Daxia.

He was not away for long, no more than a day.

Even the guards accompanying him were unaware of his sudden departure, thinking that he was still in Yishui handling some confidential matters.

No one dared to imagine that on this ordinary day, three of the four famous generals in the Lingxiao Realm died and one was captured.
