Chapter 2835 Courting Death

Tamandua only noticed Zeke and the rest after Pangolin spoke.

Trembling with fear, Tamandua looked at them and hesitantly asked, “Excuse me, Madam Pangolin, but are they the legendary humans?”

Pangolin nodded. “That's right.”

“Humans are so ugly, even uglier than the legends,” said Tamandua in disgust.

Its condescending attitude left Zeke and the others shocked.

How dare the tamandua look down on us! It even thinks we're ugly. What a humiliation!

However, they didn't have time for an argument. Instead, they urged Tamandua to lead them to King of Dragons.

After trekking along the mountain road for dozens of minutes, Zeke and the others heard the dragon roar and the anteater screams coming from ahead.

The ground shook, and trees fell one after another as if the world was coming to an end.

The battle between top-level warriors certainly lived up to its reputation.

They quickly approached the scene and noticed the battle was already nearing its end. Of course, the result was obvious; the anteater was at a disadvantage.

King of Dragons held the sharp mouth of the anteater in its claw.

With its mouth controlled, the anteater couldn't struggle or move at all. It curled up in place, shivering and preparing to accept its punishment of death.

King of Dragons flashed a malicious grin. “Hand over the spirit pill, and I'll let you die a painless death!”

The anteater, however, refused to yield, “Dream on! I will never let your conspiracy succeed, even if I have to self-detonate my core or sacrifice my life.”

“Is that so?” King of Dragons laughed. “Under the absolute power that crushes everything, you don't even have a chance to self-detonate your core.”

At this moment, the anteater suddenly saw Tamandua, and its face immediately turned pale.

“Run, run as fast as you can! Why did you come back?”

Tamandua looked at its mother's tragic situation, tears streaming down its face.

“Mom, Mom, I want Mom. Don't be afraid; we're here to save you.”

Pangolin also shouted immediately, “Hang on, we are here to save you. You will be all right! King of Dragons, you must let go of Anteater. You cannot hurt it.”

But King of Dragons paid no heed to Pangolin. “Haha, you're here again. I spared your life before, and now you're here to seek death? I don't mind granting your wish.”

Despite the fear evident on its face, Pangolin spoke in a calm manner to the Dragon King. “King of Dragons, there's no grudge between the anteater clan and you. We hope you can spare Anteater.”

King of Dragons sneered, “No grudge? Haha, what a joke. It stole my fire seed and threw me into a well. You call that no grudge?”

Pangolin quickly explained, “We didn't steal it; we found it. At that time, you were harmed by your enemy, and your soul dispersed. The fire seeds scattered throughout Theos Island. We just happened to find it by chance.”

“Do you think I don't know whether it was stolen or found? You should ask Anteater if it had stolen or found my fire seed. Pangolin, do you know why I didn't kill you? I spared you because you did find my seed. Anteater, however, stole it! For that, I must kill it!” King of Dragons hissed.

Pangolin looked at the anteater and asked, “Anteater, is what King of Dragons said true?”

Anteater sighed. “My greed got the best of me back then, so yes. I am guilty and willing to accept punishment. However, I hope King of Dragons can spare my child, as it is innocent.”

“Good, you have admitted your guilt. Now, accept your punishment...”

Just then, Pangolin shouted, “King of Dragons, you can't do this. Even if you don't respect me, you should respect your master.”

It had no choice but to make use of Zeke to save Anteater.

Master?

“I, King of Dragons, am the ruler of all things, the master of Theos Island. Who dares say they are my master?” King of Dragons seethed. Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

Zeke said, “King of Dragons... Fortuna, do you remember me?”
