Seeing the dragon tattoo on Tai Shan's wrist, Hua Shan quickly urged Ye Yuqiao, "Miss, stop your attack!"

Ye Yuqiao's eyes widened, and she immediately turned to look at Tai Shan, her face full of confusion and anger.

"Miss, he has a dragon seal on his body, you can't kill him!" Hua Shan explained with a grave expression.

However, as soon as Hua Shan's words fell, the dragon tattoo on Tai Shan's left wrist suddenly burst forth with ten thousand beams of golden light. Abruptly, the Barrier was filled with a unique odor.

"Could this be the scent of a dragon?" Ye Yuqiao mused with her eyes closed. Yet compared to the very anxious Hua Shan, her face remained calm. To her, even if a real dragon were to appear, so what? If it had been eighteen years ago, not just one dragon, even ten dragons wouldn't have scared her.

"Girlfriend, what's happening?" Chen Hao's question echoed in Ye Yuqiao's mind.

"A dragon might be appearing!"

"What, a dragon!" Chen Hao sounded very shocked.

"Never mind that, focus on dealing with Qin Shang!"

After a while, Tai Shan's wrist was still radiating golden light, and the brightness became even more dazzling. Besides that, the unique odor dispersing within the Barrier grew increasingly intense.

Ye Yuqiao's eyebrows slightly furrowed. In her opinion, this unique odor sometimes smelled like freshly overturned wet earth; other times, it resembled the salty sea.

Since Tai Shan still had a faint breath left, Ye Yuqiao continued to force out the Nether King's Power from her body. However, she was just that little bit off and could not end Tai Shan's life. She vaguely felt that a mysterious and terrifying force inside Tai Shan's body was contesting her Nether King's Power, preventing her from claiming his life.

"Could it be the power of the dragon inside him?" Ye Yuqiao couldn't help but wonder.

She turned her head towards Hua Shan and asked, "Is the dragon tattoo the seal of the dragon hidden within his body?"

"That's right!" Hua Shan nodded, "Nowadays, there are not many dragons left in this world, most of them are confined within the City of Yin and Time. And this dragon seal is an ancient spell lost to the City of Yin and Time, I have no idea where Tai Shan learned it from. I've known him since we were kids, until I left the City of Yin and Time, he shouldn't have had the dragon tattoo."

Hearing Hua Shan's words, Ye Yuqiao couldn't help but become suspicious, thinking if it was a long-lost ancient spell, how could Hua Shan know it so clearly? It seemed that back in the City of Yin and Time, he was someone noteworthy. And evidently, Tai Shan was very eager to kill him.

"Heh heh!"

Suddenly, the previously dying Tai Shan let out a sinister laugh, his expression looking somewhat malevolent. After the laugh, his left arm, emitting ten thousand beams of golden light, began to tremble violently, and his smile and features turned even more fierce and bizarre as the trembling intensified.

"Boom!" Just then, a deep, thunderous roar resounded within the Barrier, shattering it directly. Afterwards, a black dragon the size of an ordinary pen sprung forth from Tai Shan's left wrist, and suddenly its body expanded dozens of times larger, soaring directly up into the night sky. Even without the golden light that surrounded its body, one could still see the black dragon's trajectory from the distinct trace it left across the night sky.

Its body rose into the air as straight as a rocket, and its speed was also as fast as a rocket's. In the blink of an eye, it reached the edge of the space-time Barrier cast by Hua Shan, and then continued to ascend, directly breaking through the Barrier.

"Erase Space-Time!" Tai Shan immediately executed the technique.

"Tai Shan, so you were relying on this black dragon to break through the underground temple's Barrier!" Hua Shan suddenly realized, surprise written all over his face.

Tai Shan smiled, and in an instant, his figure disappeared.

"Boyfriend, be careful!" Ye Yuqiao suddenly sent a secret code to Chen Hao, for she had detected the scent of Tai Shan near him.

As expected, Tai Shan appeared before Chen Hao, but he had no intention of making a move against him. Instead, he took Qin Shang by the arm and said, "Qin Shang, I will now fulfill my promise and take you to retrieve what you desire!"

After Tai Shan spoke, he and Qin Shang disappeared from in front of Chen Hao, and the two mysterious red forces that had been clashing with the Nether King's Power also vanished. Then those two streams of Nether King's Power did not return to Chen Hao's left eye but rather rushed toward the northern district of City H, as if in pursuit of Tai Shan and Qin Shang.

"Space-time barrier, nine secret commands!" Hua Shan spread his fingers toward the sky to cast a barrier! After completing the move, his complexion turned deathly pale, and he looked utterly exhausted.

Subsequently, Tai Shan and Qin Shang reappeared at the edge of the barrier, trapped by Hua Shan's technique.

"Hmph!" Tai Shan scoffed with disdain, then muttered to himself, "Hua Shan, what you did was utterly superfluous!"

As soon as Tai Shan finished speaking, a black dragon plummeted from the sky, shattering the barrier Hua Shan had just cast. Instantly, Tai Shan and Qin Shang vanished again, while the two black streams of Nether King's Power continued to chase after them.

"Sigh, I did my best!" lamented Hua Shan helplessly, "My barrier is indeed no match for a dragon!"

"Are you people from the City of Yin and Time manipulating what you call space-time?" asked Ye Yuqiao.

"Yes!" Hua Shan nodded in acknowledgment.

Ye Yuqiao's eyes gleamed as she continued, "So, the space-time erasure move that Tai Shan just used will erase all that has happened here?"

Hua Shan nodded, explaining, "That's right. Tai Shan is currently the City Lord of the City of Yin and Time. There, everyone still thinks he's a good person, so he wants to erase all evidence of his misdeeds, to keep the people of the City of Yin and Time from discovering his true face!"

"Buzz!" At that moment, the black dragon let out a world-shaking roar and then straightened its body to catch up, leaping hundreds of meters and swallowing the two streams of Nether King's Power chasing Tai Shan and Qin Shang.

Seeing this, Chen Hao was stunned and exclaimed, "The Nether King's Power was swallowed, has this black dragon not eaten in too long?"

After a moment's shock, Chen Hao snapped back to his senses and roared at the black dragon hovering in the sky, "Hey, Dragon Bro, give me back my Nether King's Power!"

Unexpectedly, the distant black dragon actually heard him, immediately turned its head to look at Chen Hao. In its watermelon-sized emerald dragon eyes, Chen Hao saw full-blown hatred and accusation, which sent a shiver through his heart.

Suddenly, the black dragon's eyes bulged several times larger, its face contorted in rage, as it thundered toward Chen Hao, approaching rapidly.

The dragon was still far off, but the fierce wind arrived first, blowing Chen Hao's hair straight up.

"Boyfriend, hurry and hide!" Ye Yuqiao's urgent voice echoed in Chen Hao's mind.

Chen Hao snapped out of his daze, and by that time, the black dragon was only a few dozen meters away, the wind brought by its approach so powerful that Chen Hao struggled to stand.

However, at that moment, Chen Hao didn't dodge; instead, he lifted the corners of his mouth in a smile.

For some reason, his heart suddenly filled with fighting spirit.

"I'm going to pluck the horns from your head!"
