16: Xiao Zhan's Master

Chapter 16: Xiao Zhan's Revered Master

In a dark room, located deep underground in an abandoned factory on the outskirts of Tianhai City, it had been converted into a secret base.

At this moment, a foul odor emanated from the room, accompanied by the sound of steady breathing.

"Huang Yu! This Dragon King will kill you!"

Lying on the mat, Xiao Zhan dreamt of the humiliation he suffered in the carriage. His emotions gradually became agitated, his face twisted, and he suddenly roared, sitting up from the ground.

Upon getting up, Xiao Zhan realized he was in an unfamiliar environment.

Feeling the dampness on his body, a foul stench continuously assailed his nostrils, and he immediately gagged.

"Huang Yu! This Dragon King swears, you and I will never rest until one of us is dead. I will kill you one day!"

After gagging for a long while, Xiao Zhan finally recovered, sprawling on the ground, his body trembling uncontrollably.

The humiliation in the carriage remained an indelible shadow in his mind, his eyes instantly turning fierce as he roared towards the sky.

"If you can't even handle this small setback, then you might as well go back overseas."

Just then, a sacred and inviolable, cold female voice rang out, echoing continuously in the room.

The lights also came on at this moment.

A graceful woman, dressed in a black robe, like an ethereal Immortal descending to the mortal world, stood not far away, looking coldly at Xiao Zhan.

Most of Xiao Zhan's blue security uniform was now tinged with a slight yellow, and it had dried onto his clothes, sticking to his skin, emitting a foul odor.

His hair was also extremely messy, and a trace of an unknown yellow substance remained at the corner of his mouth.

That was what Huang Yu's little brother, Bai Mao, had smeared on him earlier…

Xiao Zhan was more disheveled than ever, showing no semblance of the Dragon King of the Dragon King Palace, a stark contrast to the sacred aura of the woman opposite him.

Upon hearing the other party's voice, Xiao Zhan's expression suddenly changed, his mouth instantly straightened, and his demeanor became respectful.

"Disciple Xiao Zhan! Greetings, Revered Master!"

If Huang Yu were here, he would surely recognize the identity of this woman: the most terrifying existence in the Dragon King Palace.

Xiao Zhan's Revered Master, Yun Yun.

Yun Yun was beautiful. According to the description in the book, her beauty was different from that of the other female protagonists; it was an otherworldly, peerless beauty not meant for the mortal realm.

Yun Yun walked gracefully, her snow-white legs occasionally revealed beneath her black robe, and her serene, cold temperament added a touch of mystery to her identity.

Even though her entire body was enveloped by a black robe, it still couldn't conceal her graceful and exquisite curves.

Even without seeing her face, that fatal allure seemed capable of driving countless men to madness.

In the Dragon King Palace, Yun Yun's origin had always been unknown. She had another Revered Master, and it was said that she was an extremely powerful existence even before the Dragon King Palace was founded.

Even in the book, it was never mentioned.

As if she had appeared out of thin air.

If it weren't for a grand world of novels that merged multiple Dragon-King-style stories, where even Immortal Kings and Immortal Emperors would gradually appear in the future… in a single-book War God world, it would be no exaggeration to say that Xiao Zhan's extremely mysterious Revered Master was the ceiling of combat power for the entire book.

As his Revered Master gradually approached and stopped not far away, Xiao Zhan no longer cared about the mess all over his body.

The Dragon King was now incredibly obedient, kneeling on one knee at Yun Yun's feet, his head bowed, his attitude utterly respectful.

"Disciple is unworthy, Revered Master, I have disappointed you!"

Although he said this, Xiao Zhan's eyes at this moment held a hint of almost obsessive fanaticism.

His desire for his Revered Master, Yun Yun, had always been the deepest secret hidden in his heart.

However, due to his strength, he had never expressed it.

Yun Yun looked at her stinking Disciple. While feeling a little heartache, a hint of disdain inevitably flashed in her beautiful eyes.

Her toes subconsciously retreated half a step, maintaining some distance from Xiao Zhan.

At the same time, that cold, ethereal voice, not meant for the mortal world, rang out again.

"According to your cultivation today, your Physical Body should have long since reached the state of clear Meridians and pure flawlessness. Why are you so disheveled?"

"Disciple doesn't know either. At that time, the abdominal pain was unbearable, and then…"

When Xiao Zhan said this, besides feeling embarrassed, he also felt an intense sense of humiliation, especially in front of his most beloved Revered Master.

"System, are you still there?"

"System!"

As if remembering something, he secretly called out in his heart.

But the System, which had almost always responded to his every request, now showed no reaction whatsoever.

Ever since Xiao Zhan was forcibly fed by Huang Yu earlier, the System had been like a frozen computer; no matter how he called out, there was no response.

Xiao Zhan was anxious and somewhat puzzled.

After all, in his heart, the System was an omnipotent existence.

Hearing Xiao Zhan's explanation, a cold glint flashed in Yun Yun's beautiful eyes, "Without a doubt, among those who were with you that day, there must have been a Revered Master of poison Dao."

"To be able to ambush you so stealthily, their Poison Dao attainment must have reached its peak!"

"Revered Master of Poison Dao!"

Upon hearing this judgment, Xiao Zhan was surprised that such a person could actually ambush him, and he immediately locked onto Huang Yu.

However, he then shook his head, dismissing the idea.

Although Huang Yu, that sycophantic dog, had a grudge against him, thinking of the cowardly way he acted in front of him, he would rather believe he had an upset stomach than that it could be Huang Yu…

The Dragon King immediately ruled out the correct answer!

"Tell me what happened today."

Yun Yun's delicate brows furrowed slightly, then she looked at Xiao Zhan indifferently.

"Yes."

Immediately, Xiao Zhan recounted everything that had happened that day.

Including how he initially 'rescued' Liu Ruyan from the notorious young Revered Master Huang Yu, and how he was then captured in the assault vehicle and subsequently fainted.

However, Xiao Zhan completely portrayed himself as a hero who saved people from distress, and it was only due to a momentary oversight that he was ambushed.

And Huang Yu was turned into a dissolute young Revered Master and a sycophantic dog with no moral bottom line.

"I understand. You should go clean up that smell on your body first."

Yun Yun said indifferently, then turned and left directly.

However…

She vaguely felt that the sycophantic dog Huang Yu, as described by Xiao Zhan, might not be as simple as he seemed.

But she couldn't pinpoint what was wrong.

"It seems I need to meet this Huang Yu myself."

Although Xiao Zhan was not a good person, he still had strength, at least representing the face of the Dragon King Palace.

To be able to ambush him so easily would undoubtedly be a significant threat to the Dragon King Palace.

…

Meanwhile, in the hospital ward.

Huang Yu lay on the hospital bed, thinking about the scene when Xiao Zhan was rescued after eating earlier today.

Before leaving, the woman seemed to have given him a deep look.

That fleeting glance looked very familiar.

Wait!

As if remembering something, Huang Yu suddenly sat up, his eyes wide.

He couldn't believe his own judgment! He couldn't help but murmur,

"It's chaos! Everything is in chaos!"
