Chapter 4446
Seeing a familiar face from the same clan, Cen Biqing felt a wave of happiness wash over her!
Old Black, upon hearing this, couldn’t contain his joy either. “I never expected to encounter someone from our clan inside this tower!”
“Surely, not everyone trapped here belongs to the Dragon Race, right?”
Kai asked, his surprise evident.
Just as Old Black was about to respond, a child’s voice echoed from the fifth floor, declaring, “I am also of the Dragon Race, from the False Dragon lineage!”
“Don’t try to fool me! Just because you claim that, don’t think I won’t give you a beating when I reach the fifth floor!”
Old Black’s irritation flared as he heard the child from the fifth floor also proclaim himself a dragon. “You must be lying!”
“I truly belong to the False Dragon lineage!” the child’s voice insisted, but it suddenly shifted to that of an old man. “I can disguise everything, and my voice is my best disguise.”
“You’ll find out the truth once you break that forbidden formation and see me!”
“Saint son, I hope …” Old Black glanced at Kai.
“Just call me Mr. Chen, like Miss Qing does. I’ll go see if I can disable that forbidden formation!”
With that, Kai made his way toward the ladder!
This time, he decided not to let Old Black test the formation. Instead, he activated his Heavenly Underworld Eyes, revealing the forbidden formation before him!
As he examined the intricate formation and the multitude of runes, Kai’s brow furrowed slightly!
It was astonishing that the forbidden formation varied with each level!
This time, the ladder posed no issues, but to dismantle the formation, one had to start from the formation’s core!
Despite multiple attempts, Kai found himself failing each time!
In desperation, he resorted to using the Dragon Slashing Sword, attempting to forcefully breach the forbidden formation over and over, only to be repelled each time!
“This formation is distinct for every layer, and this one is evidently much stronger. There’s no way I can break through it.”
Kai sighed helplessly after his numerous attempts!
Seeing this, Old Black looked disheartened, yet he managed to muster a smile. “It’s alright; this forbidden formation is quite powerful. It’s only natural that it can’t be broken.”
“I’ll head to the fifth floor first to see what’s going on. Perhaps I can devise another plan up there!”
Kai resolved to investigate the fifth floor and learn more about the individual who claimed to be from the False Dragon Lineage!
“Mr. Chen, people can be deceitful; please be cautious …”
Cen Biqing warned Kai!
“I’ll accompany you …”
Lin Keting stepped beside Kai, eager to follow him!
Both of them understood that the strength of the person being suppressed above would only increase, and whether the individual on the fifth floor was truly a Dragon or not, as well as their intentions, was uncertain. Acting recklessly could lead to danger!
Nevertheless, Lin Keting was willing to join Kai, and he accepted her company!
He always sensed that Lin Keting, this little girl, held many secrets!
“Ji Yun, Miss Zhu, please wait here for now. I’ll go investigate the situation!”
Kai intended to assess the circumstances; if things seemed off, he wouldn’t proceed further up the tower!
It was rare to encounter individuals of the Dragon Race!
If Old Black hadn’t been a member of the Dragon Race, Kai could have found himself in peril!
After giving his orders, Kai and Lin Keting ascended towards the fifth floor!
As they arrived, they found a hunched old man with a bushy beard seemingly awaiting their arrival!
The old man grinned upon seeing Kai and Lin Keting, revealing a mouth full of large yellow teeth!
This sight repulsed Lin Keting!
Kai shot a glance at the old man, realizing how starkly different he was from the child’s voice they had just heard.
Who would have imagined that the innocent-sounding child’s voice belonged to this hunchbacked old man!
It was evident that this individual, claiming to be from the False Dragon lineage, was likely using a disguise!
Before Kai could speak, the hunchbacked old man suddenly lunged forward, launching both palms at them!
His hands resembled eagle claws, reaching out towards Kai and Lin Keting!
