Chapter 16: How He Is

Before she could be surprised, a fierce beast fell to the ground in front of her, and the woman's face became more and more pale, and her lips trembled as if she wanted to say something, but she couldn't say it.

The fierce beast in front of him fell to the ground and turned into ashes and floated into the air for a while, Zhao Yuan's face did not have any expression, it seemed that he was used to this feeling of killing, and he withdrew his knife from his waist with a calm look.

It wasn't until the fierce beast completely dissipated that the woman came to her senses, slowly stood up from the ground, and walked to Zhao Yuan's side, as if there was still a fierce beast on the ground, and the expression on her face was still very sluggish.

"Are you alright?"

It wasn't what she said, but Zhao Yuan, who was beside her, was a little worried when he looked at her pale face, so he asked.

After sorting out her mood, the woman's face slowly became a little rosy, and although she smiled, it was a little stiff.

"I'm fine, why are you so powerful, do you know? The fierce beasts guarding the forbidden land of the Demon Brake are all hundreds or even thousands of years of cultivation, even Su Lie may not be able to deal with them, you actually slaughtered four directly!" The woman's face was full of surprise, and she said in disbelief when she looked at his expressionless face.

This man is really terrifying, he is not confused about his seduction, and he knows how powerful the fierce beasts along the way are, but he easily slaughtered them, and even witnessed him kill the thousand-year-old fierce beasts guarding the forbidden land.

Not caring about the surprise on the woman's face, Zhao Yuan left her directly and continued to move forward, looking at the stone gate in front of him, he always felt that something inside had been seducing him.

Just as he was about to raise his hand, he heard a loud noise, and Zhao Yuan hurriedly pulled out his knife from his waist, looking ready to fight at any time.

The woman was not the slightest defense, walked directly in front of him, stood straight, and then saw the huge stone door in front of her slowly open with a loud noise, maybe it had not been opened for many years, and a lot of dust fell at the same time as it opened.

A little disgusted frown, Zhao Yuan put down the knife in his hand, but he didn't mean to put it back, because he didn't know if there was any danger inside.

The stone door opened, because there was too much dust, Zhao Yuan turned his face sideways, and did not let the dust inside hit his face, and the woman next to him also covered her mouth and nose, but she still inhaled part of the dust, and couldn't help coughing a few times.

"Let's go inside!"

Zhao Yuan saw that the stone door in front of him had been completely opened, and the dust had almost dissipated, looking at the vague scenery inside, he didn't look at the woman next to him, and walked in directly.

It was a wide room, more like a temple, and it was so big that you could even hear the echo of your own footsteps.

"Who is there?" Zhao Yuan saw a person standing there in the mist, standing there straight, and was shocked, when he just came in, he didn't feel the presence of anyone other than the two of them at all, this person couldn't stand here so upright without feeling it.

I couldn't help but panic a little in my heart, took out the knife in my hand, and looked like I would attack him as long as he walked over, looked at the person opposite vigilantly, and slowly approached, only to find that he must be motionless.

Compared with Zhao Yuan's nervousness, the woman walked over directly, then stood in front of the person, reached out under his nose and tested his breathing.

Only then did Zhao Yuan realize that this person's straight appearance was because he was chained, and his limbs were chained by the thick chains of his arms, so that he had to stand and couldn't move, and even had a chain around his neck.

"Who is he?" Zhao Yuan didn't let his guard down, the man himself didn't feel his presence at all, and the expression on the woman's face didn't look like telling him that the person was dead.

Without answering his words, the woman straightened the hair from his face, revealing his face, and then took out a jug of water from her waist and carefully fed it to him.

Seeing the true face of that person, Zhao Yuan was stunned, and said in disbelief: "Dad?"

Zhao Yuan didn't believe that his father would be tortured like this, watching his chapped lips have a slight complexion under the moisture of water, but the pale face made people feel very distressed.

Slowly approaching, walking in front of him, the knife in Zhao Yuan's hand fell to the ground all of a sudden, and he stretched out his hand to caress the pale face of the person opposite, and the coldness in his hand made him feel panicked.

"He seems to be in a coma?" the woman fed the water, not seeing the man wake up, but just now she reached out and clearly felt his breathing.

Letting go of Old Man Zhao's face and motioning for the woman to dodge, Zhao Yuan picked up his own knife on the ground, looked at the chains that locked his father, and his eyes darkened.

When he saw the thunder charm on the chain, he felt even more painful in his heart, his father was tortured like this, and he never knew it.

Seeing Zhao Yuan's movements, the woman's face changed significantly, and she shouted: "Don't! Zhao Yuan, it will alarm others!"

But Zhao Yuan couldn't hear it anymore, he just wanted to save his father now, and directly cut off the chains, and Old Man Zhao fell straight to the ground with the breaking of the chains.

"Daddy, are you alright? Daddy...... I'm Zhao Yuan, father, look at me, you open your eyes and see if I'm okay, the child is not filial, and he didn't save his father in time......" Zhao Yuan's voice was a little choked, hugging the person on the ground, his face was full of self-blame and guilt.

Seeing the two people hugging each other tightly on the ground, the woman's face was full of anxiety, she squatted down and pulled the two up, helping the unconscious old man Zhao to leave.

"Let's go quickly, if you cut off the chains, it will definitely alarm Su Lie and them, and when they come, we won't be able to leave!"

The woman said anxiously, but Zhao Yuan was in no mood to take care of her at all, her strength alone was too small, and she couldn't support the people on the ground at all.

Zhao Yuan's eyes were dull, looking at the pale old man Zhao, he felt very sad, and at the same time he was very angry, wanting to find someone who hurt his father.

took out an elixir from his waist and put it in Old Man Zhao's mouth, his face was pale, but he still had some breathing and pulse, which made Zhao Yuan feel relieved.

What he gave Old Man Zhao was an elixir that could protect his heart and replenish his qi and blood, and now he just wanted his father to come to his senses quickly.

Su Lie, who was still sleeping, suddenly felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, and then his bed shook violently a few times, and he woke up from his sleep.
