“Zhou… Your Excellency Zhou Yang…”

Bilbo Baggins followed Gandalf, and when he saw Zhou Yang, he could not help but let out a trembling cry.

Gandalf patted Bilbo’s head comfortably and sighed:

“We’ve done our best, and Sorin is self-sufficient.”

“But, Gandalf, Thorin is not guilty of death.”

With Gandalf’s consolation, Bilbo’s pale face turned a little rosy, he said hastily.

Zhou Yang raised his brows, looked at Bilbo, and said in a gloomy tone:

“Mr. Bilbo Baggins, Hobbit of the Shire, you know, I could have killed you with me.”

Zhou Yang only used this sentence to make Bilbo shut his mouth.

Obviously, Zhou Yang has become a big devil in his heart.

“Okay, Smaug, destroy this secret passage. I don’t want any more snitches to enter my palace.”

Having taught Bilbo a lesson, Zhou Yang turned around and commanded Smaug beside him.

“Wait a minute, Mr. Zhou Yang, Sorin and their corpses…”

As soon as Bilbo said a word, Smaug’s fiery flames poured into the secret passage, and Bilbo closed his eyes in pain.

If he could do it all over again, he definitely didn’t want to meet these dwarves again, and he would never take part in this adventure.

Hearing the crackling sound of oil cracking in the secret passage, Zhou Yang smiled lightly, and the trace of disgust in his heart disappeared as the dwarves died completely.

Smaug looked at the smile on Zhou Yang’s face and breathed out the flames harder.

After a long time, it muttered:

“Hmph, the mere dwarves are trying to murder Lord Smaug. Even if there is no master, I can spray you to death with a breath of dragon.”

In Smaug’s mind, these dwarves were nothing but ant-like reptiles. If it wasn’t for Zhou Yang, he would have killed all of these dwarves long ago.

Hearing Smaug’s words, Zhou Yang frowned, looked at Smaug and said:

“Smaug, you are too arrogant. You are missing a dragon scale on your chest, which is your fatal flaw.”

“Yes, master, you are right.”

Smaug replied flatteringly, remembering the scene where Zhou Yang split his own flesh with a long sword before, and he couldn’t help shivering.

“But master, my scales have fallen off for more than a hundred years, and they can’t grow back at all.”

“Don’t worry, I will use these treasures in the underground palace to build a suit of armor for you to deal with the next war.”

Zhou Yang said lightly.

“Ah? To use my treasure…”

Smaug opened his mouth wide and looked reluctant.

“It’s my treasure.”

Zhou Yang looked at Smaug and repeated coldly.

“Yes, yes, these are the treasures of the master.”

Smaug shuddered and said hastily.

“Mr. Zhou Yang, do you also think there will be a war?”

Gandalf looked at Zhou Yang in surprise, and beside him, Bilbo also showed a surprised look.

“Yes, the war is coming, but not with Modo.”

Zhou Yang’s eyes looked far into the distance.

Gandalf looked at Zhou Yang puzzled, but seeing that Zhou Yang didn’t mean to explain, he didn’t ask any more questions.

At this moment, he frowned and felt that the King of Giant Eagles had come to Lonely Mountain.

“Mr. Zhou Yang, I still have something to do, so I’ll leave first.”

Gandalf raised the staff in his hand, took off the wizard hat, revealing his vicissitudes of white hair, and performed a wizard etiquette to Zhou Yang.

“Then I won’t be far away.”

Zhou Yang nodded, took out a brilliant gem from the system backpack and handed it to Bilbo, saying:

“Bilbo, this is for you.”

“This is… the Arken gem of the dwarf kingdom?”

Gandalf looked at the gem in Zhou Yang’s hands in surprise.

“What is the Arken Gem?”

Bilbo asked curiously.

“Hey, remember the dwarven treasure that Thorin asked you to help him find? It’s this Arken gem.”

Gandalf sighed, obviously very emotional about Thorin’s ending, but everything was the dwarf’s own choice, and he was not much better.

“It’s too expensive, I can’t have it.”

Hearing this, Bilbo was taken aback and waved his hands to reject this priceless gem.

Gandalf glanced at Bilbo approvingly, and was able to resist the temptation of this gem, showing that Bilbo was indeed a very good hobbit.

Bilbo’s refusal had long been expected by Zhou Yang. After all, how could a person who can resist the temptation of the Lord of the Rings and give up the Lord of the Rings voluntarily covet a mere Arken gem?

The so-called Arken Gem is also known as the Heart of the Lonely Mountain.

It is said to be unique in the world, and there is nothing like it. Even the elves are obsessed with its preciousness.

Moreover, the Arken gem is an extremely important thing among the dwarves. The various groups of the dwarves once agreed to help the Turin dwarves who possess the Arken gem to retake the Lonely Mountain.

Therefore, this gem is not only a bright pearl, but also a symbol of the Turin dwarves.

But now that the Turin dwarves have perished, the mission of this gem has come to an end.

“Give it to you and take it.”

Zhou Yang waved his hand and threw the Arken gem to Bilbo, he said with great meaning:

“Bilbo, it’s not a gift, it’s a deal.”*
