CH 162

“Haa…”

Ge Xiu suddenly opened his eyes.

The sky was spinning, the darkness in his vision had not subsided, his ears were filled with buzzing.

He groped towards his waist with difficulty, tore open the dress with his trembling fingers, and then violently tore off the drawstring under the skirt, the whalebone lost its restraint and fell apart in an instant.

…Finally able to breathe.

Ge Xiu let out a long breath and slowly lay down on his back.

The line of sight gradually became clearer.

He supported the ground with his arms, slowly got up, turned his head and looked around the place where he was now.

It was a huge cave, with a narrow opening overhead, through which cold distant daylight streamed down.

Inside the cave, there were mountains of gold coins and precious stones, from golden jewellery and silver utensils to huge jewels and diamonds, all piled up in a huge hills, shining dazzling golden glittered in the sun, and the walls of cave were reflecting the dazzling golden colours.

Ge Xiu: “…”

Eye piercing.

And he finally knew why he had been feeling a dull pain in his back ever since he had woken up.

Because he had been placed in the very center of the biggest golden mountain, with gold coins and jewels all over his back and body, and the gold coins under his palms slid down with his movements, bringing forth the metallic sounds of collision. A small flood of coins like a reiver slid down the mountain.

At this moment, there was another sound of gold rushing down from the other end of the cave.

Ge Xiu immediately turned his head to look in the direction of the sound.

A big black tail quickly passed over the gold mountain not far away, and disappeared in an instant. With the movement of that tail, golden avalanches all over the cave surged down, making tinkling sounds.

Immediately afterwards, a deep majestic voice sounded in the cave, amplified by the narrow rock wall, carrying a distant and cold deterrent force:

“Human, from now on, you belong to my collection.”

Ge Xiu climbed up the golden mountain with some difficulty, the gold coins under his feet falling down.

He lifted the hem of his skirt and walked in the direction where the tail disappeared just now.

“What are you going to do?” the voice asked suspiciously.

Ge Xiu kicked away the crown blocking the way under his feet, and continued to walk forward, explaining considerately as he walked:

“Don’t worry, I just want to see you.”

——to see if you are the person I am looking for.

After all, the wind was too strong before for him to even open his eyes, making it very difficult to see the appearance of the other party.

Rumble.

The entire ground shook violently.

The other party seemed to have taken quickly a few steps back into the shadow of the cave.

The golden mountain in the cave jolted up and down with the vibration, setting off a wave of falling golden waves.

“You…” The majestic voice just now seemed a little nervous at the moment: “…don’t come here.”

Ge Xiu was taken aback for a moment, then stopped in doubt:

“Why?”

The other side fell into silence.

Ge Xiu tentatively took a few steps closer in that direction.

“Aren’t you a lady!” The other party became a little restless: “You…your clothes…”

Ge Xiu looked down.

Just now, in order to untie his waist, he straight up tore off the dress on his body, the open lace neckline hung loosely on his shoulders. The cloth on the lower waist was also torn apart, and the silk fabrics were piled up randomly, revealing the slender collarbone and most of the chest, the flush that from the suffocation just now hadn’t dissipated yet and floated on the snow-white skin, making it seem even more glamorous and blatant because it was half-covered.

It dawned on him.

But…

“I’m really not.” Ge Xiu said.

As he spoke, he continued to pull his neckline down neatly, revealing his flat chest with firm muscles—

but seconds before he could pull down the skirt completely, a strong wind rose up, and the gold coins were blown away with clinging by the gust of wind, and Ge Xiu fell back a little unsteadily and sat on the golden mountain again. When he finally opened his eyes, he realised that the dragon hiding in the shadow just now had already run out of the door and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Ge Xiu: …

Was he shy?

He let go of his dress and slid down the slope made out of gold coins.

Three minutes later, Ge Xiu finally arrived at the mountain’s foot.

He stood up, bent down, skilfully tore open the hem of the dress, kicked off the high heels still hanging on his feet and walked out of the cave with bare feet.

The sky outside was clear blue and clean, the giant dragon was nowhere to be seen in the sky.

Outside the cave were jagged peaks, hard and barren rocks with sharp edges and corners and behind the entrance was a dense dark green jungle that did not let through any light.

The faint sound of waves could be heard not far away.

Ge Xiu wrapped torn fabric around his feet, and then walked towards the direction of the sound of the waves.

The jungle gradually became thinner and skylight opened in the treetops.

He saw a boundless blue ocean surrounded by layers of rocks. Waves after waves rolled in from afar, collided with the huge rocks on the edge of the isolated island, and split into snow-white foam and waves.

There was no trace of any human life on the entire island.

Ge Xiu stared thoughtfully at the place where the sky and the sea meet in the distance.

Until now, he had not found the laws of this world.

According to the usual practise, he should have assigned in the place of the most dangerous and most conflicting identity, followed by endless malice, especially in the previous two worlds, which couldn’t wait to bring him to death from the very beginning beginning, but this time it was completely different—although he was also kidnapped by the evil dragon at the beginning, the other party didn’t seem to show any malice towards him.

This feeling of not needing to flee for his life made Ge Xiu feel a little unused.

Why was it so?

At this moment, amidst the sound of the waves, there was a “gululu”.

Ge Xiu pressed his stomach that was aching slightly, and frowned slightly.

Since he came into this world, he hadn’t eaten a morsel.

So hungry.

·

The black giant dragon was flying high in the clouds, its huge wings set off a strong air currents with each beat and the whistling wind passes by its ears.

He was a dragon that had lived for tens of thousands of years.

Ever since he became conscious, he knew that the dragon needed to snatch a princess.

However, the dragon was lazy.

He preferred to collect and rob gold and silver treasures, those shiny treasures being more attractive to him than a weak and incompetent human princess.

until one day.

The dragon decided to take a nap in a mountain range in the mainland, when a group of human soldiers happened to pass by his cave, disturbing his sleep.

Just as he woke up angrily and was about to use his dragon breath to punish those ignorant humans, he happened to hear the humans’ conversation— they were talking about the prince of their country and how he fell in love at first sight in the Princess Angela from kingdom of Esther. not even hesitating to compete with the King of Farland for her hand.

They praised the princess’s appearance, her starry eyes and her brilliant blond hair.

The fire breath brewing in the dragon’s throat slowly extinguished.

At this moment, he finally remembered his mission.

The dragon needed to kidnap a princess.

The dragon decided to go and see the princess named Angela.

See if she was worthy of being his prey.

Thus, the dragon spread its wings and flew towards the territory of the Kingdom of Esther.

On the open balcony of the kingdom, he saw her.

The dragon felt his heart, which had been silent for many years, start beating violently, like a scorching flame spreading in his scale-covered chest.

Not even the clearest most beautiful gem could compare to her blue eyes, no pure gold could compare to her brilliant blond hair.

The dragon was moved.

Only she was worthy of being in his collection!

If he wanted to kidnap, it could only be such a princess!

He instantly followed his heart into action.

The dragon perfectly displayed its nature of grabbing whatever it liked, directly tore apart the protective magic outside the palace and then snatched away the closely guarded princess.

What he didn’t expect was that maybe because his claws were grasping too tightly, the princess fainted on the way.

Regretful, the dragon carefully placed the unconscious princess in the middle of his treasure pile.

Then, he found a shadow to hide in the cave.

——During his tens of thousands of years of life, there were too many humans that fainted from panic and fear before he could use his fire breath, shivering and running away in panic in front of his flames. There were even some psychologically fragile human beings who were directly scared to death by him.

Humans were fragile and weak creatures.

And the princess…

her skin was like the first snow, her waist was like a thin willow, she was as beautiful and fragile as the most precious gemstone in his cave.

The dragon didn’t want the princess to be scared too.

But…unexpectedly…

the scene he saw in the cave flashed again in the dragon’s mind, and suddenly, as if his own dragon’s breath flame burned from inside, he felt a suffocating and hot feeling again, spreading rapidly under his icy scales, causing him to subconsciously speed up the frequency of flapping his wings, flying higher up than before.

Finally, after a dozen laps, the dragon slowly calmed down.

The sky had gradually dimmed.

After calming down, he suddenly remembered—humans had to eat.

Dragons could live without food for hundreds of years, but humans couldn’t. If they don’t eat for a few days, they may die.

And such a weak and beautiful princess may persist for an even shorter time.

The dragon suddenly tensed up.

—He didn’t want the princess to die.

The giant dragon beat its wings violently, made a sharp turn, turned around and rushed back towards its cave.

In the night, the howling wind whizzed past his ears, the scenery below changed instantly, and the small island where he hid his treasure gradually emerged in his sight.

The dragon first returned to his cave full of golden treasures.

—but the princess was not here.

He was filled with anxiety.

He left too hastily earlier and he had never thought that the princess would leave directly.

The dragon left the cave in a panic and began to circle the island at a low altitude—this island was completely isolated from the outside world and so the princess couldn’t have left the island.

At this moment, his vision caught a faint fire not far away.

The giant dragon was overjoyed, and quickly flapped its wings and flew towards the direction of the fire.

The fire was lit in a clearing among the dense jungle.

From far away, his excellent dynamic vision captured the scene of that land in his mind with great precision.

He saw a princess in a tattered dress sitting on a rock. A long sword inlaid with gemstones was inserted beside the rock, dried blood still staining the blade.

On the bonfire, a huge wild boar was roasting.

Dragon: “…”
