Chapter 11

Hearing what Zhao Shuo said, Zhao Feng's face turned pale as he said, "It's a good thing you're here; otherwise, Elder Brother would have wronged Mother. But whether we go or stay, it's a death sentence. Are we just going to wait for death?"

A smile hung at the corner of her mouth as Zhao Luan glanced at Zhao Shuo and said with a light laugh, "Elder Brother, haven't you noticed that Second Brother isn't the least bit nervous? It's clear that Second Brother already has a plan!"

Zhao Feng glanced at Zhao Shuo and found that it was indeed as Zhao Luan had said. His eyes lit up, and he slapped Zhao Shuo's shoulder hard, laughing, "You little rascal, you just stood there watching Elder Brother worry. Quickly, have you thought of a good plan?"

Zhao Shuo's face showed a hint of pain as he rubbed his shoulder and said with a bitter smile, "Elder Brother, do you not know how strong your grip is? My body can't take that."

Zhao Feng chuckled, "Then hurry up and speak!"

Zhao Shuo smiled, "No matter what, the root of Chen Tiangui's death lies with Little Sister. If both Little Sister and Chen Tiangui were to go missing this time, what would others think?"

Zhao Luan, who had been frowning slightly, heard Zhao Shuo's words and her eyes sparkled as she said with a smile, "I understand what Second Brother means. At that time, others would only think that Chen Tiangui and I met a sea monster and died together. This way, the Chen family will have no choice but to suffer in silence."

Zhao Feng, however, looked puzzled and said, "Isn't that the same thing?"

Zhao Shuo chuckled, "There's a big difference. If Little Sister returns safely, the Chen family will never let her live. But if Little Sister also goes missing, the Chen family won't even have a target for their anger. If we add one more thing, I can guarantee that the Chen family will never pay attention to us again!"

Seeing Zhao Shuo's confident expression, Zhao Luan said happily, "Second Brother, speak quickly!"

Zhao Shuo beckoned to Zhao Luan and Zhao Feng, and the two leaned in close. He whispered in their ears, and their eyes gradually showed shock and delight.

Zhao Feng laughed, "Good, good, now Elder Brother is reassured."

Zhao Shuo smiled, "Alright, let's not worry about the Chen family for now. Let's see what we've gained."

The three looked at the giant corpse of the green dragon, and to them, every bit of its flesh and blood was a priceless treasure.

Zhao Shuo said to Zhao Luan, "Little Sister, you stay here and watch. Elder Brother and I will go check out the green dragon's lair. This place will be a hiding spot for us in the future, and there might be more treasures in the green dragon's lair."

Zhao Feng and Zhao Shuo dived into the water and slowly swam downstream. After a long time, the surroundings were pitch black, and if they hadn't kept descending by feel, they probably wouldn't have known which direction they were going.

Suddenly, a bright light appeared before their eyes. A large night pearl, as big as an adult's fist, glowed in front of them, and a deep, dark cave entrance appeared.

They looked at each other and swam forward. Their bodies seemed to pass through something, and they suddenly fell downward, landing heavily on the ground with a splash.

"Water-repelling pearl!"

Zhao Shuo looked at the fist-sized night pearl in surprise. The faint light above them blocked the water, which could only be the legendary water-repelling pearl.

Without a doubt, the deep cave in front of them was the green dragon's lair. Zhao Shuo got up from the ground and was about to enter the cave, but Zhao Feng pulled him back.

Zhao Shuo looked at Zhao Feng in confusion, and Zhao Feng took a deep breath and said, "Second Brother, your talent is much greater than Elder Brother's. We don't know if there are any dangers in the green dragon's lair. Let Elder Brother go first to scout. If anything happens to Elder Brother, you can take care of Little Sister and Mother."

Zhao Shuo smiled bitterly, "Elder Brother, don't worry. If I'm not mistaken, there won't be any danger in the lair."

Zhao Feng shook his head stubbornly, "No, even if there's no danger, I must go first!"

Seeing the determined look in Zhao Feng's eyes, Zhao Shuo nodded helplessly, feeling warm and deeply moved. As an orphan, he had never been treated like this. Zhao Feng was thinking of him, willing to face the unknown dangers himself rather than let him take the risk.

"Elder Brother, from now on, you and the others are the closest people to Zhao Shuo. As long as Zhao Shuo has a breath left, I will never let anyone harm you." Taking a deep breath, Zhao Shuo followed the determined Zhao Feng into the deep lair.

To their surprise, the lair was not very dark, and there was not even a hint of a fishy smell. Night pearls of various sizes were embedded in the cave walls, as if they had grown out of the rock.

Seeing this, Zhao Shuo's heart stirred, and he whispered, "Elder Brother, be careful. This lair isn't as simple as it seems."

Zhao Feng paused, turned slightly, and chuckled, "Don't worry, Elder Brother knows."

Zhao Shuo focused, following Zhao Feng and looking around. The deeper they went, the more Zhao Shuo was convinced that this was not just a simple green dragon's lair.

Just as Zhao Shuo was lost in thought, Zhao Feng, who was in front, stopped. His face flushed as he looked at the spacious cave room ahead, where dazzling light shone. In front of them were piles of various treasures, including many rare and precious materials that were invaluable to cultivators.

After some time, Zhao Shuo's understanding of this world far exceeded Zhao Feng's. With his photographic memory, he had read many miscellaneous records. Among the treasures, Zhao Shuo recognized several that would make even cultivators' hearts race.

Seeing several black water plants that looked unremarkable, Zhao Shuo couldn't help but exclaim, "Deep Sea Black Ink Spirit Grass, which grows near the lair of a deep-sea black dragon at least at the Spirit Realm level, absorbing the dragon's saliva, making it extremely toxic!"

Hearing Zhao Shuo's exclamation, Zhao Feng couldn't help but look at the deep sea black ink spirit grass and said, "Second Brother, is that deep sea black ink spirit grass not a treasure?"
