Reincarnated As A Demonic Dragon, I Formed A Pact With A Beautiful Female Lord - Chapter 111
111 The World at The Bottom of The Chasm
Su Wan finally remembered where she had seen the runes that were on the brick! It was the runes of the ancient Sunken City!
She had seen these runes on the internet while searching for things about the Sunken City.
Historians had studied these ruins. Sunken City existed a long time ago. All buildings at that time used runes.
The ancient and mysterious runes combined with the buildings to build the grand project of that era!
“So, this place beneath the territory is related to the Sunken City?” asked the White Dragon Saint.
!!
Su Wan didn’t have a definite answer for this matter. “Not necessarily,” she said. “Maybe one of the bricks from the Sunken City had fallen into the dark river beneath our territory…”
Su Wan stooped. Xu Yuan, who was beside her, pointed out the flaw in her explanation.
“How stupid of you!” he said to Su Wan. “A brick might have fallen into the underground river?! Bah! The dwarves did say that there are numerous buildings down there.”
His words made her so angry that she gritted her teeth to prevent herself from retaliating. ‘D*mned Scammer Xu!’
She let her blood boil in humiliation, but she did not refute him because it was true.
The dwarves did mention that there were numerous buildings in the ruin below. Her guess was wrong. But that would mean that the ruins below them were the actual Sunken City!
Su Wan went to gather more information. “The Sunken City has reappeared fifty kilometers away from our territory.”
According to the intelligence of the other Lords, the Sunken City had appeared in the dark river of the abyss.
“Could it be that the buildings below our territory are just a portion of the Sunken City?”
The distance mentioned was so vast that the White Dragon Saint felt suspicious about the ruins beneath them.
Xu Yuan still looked indifferent. Su Wan thought of something at this time and turned to him.
“Xu Yuan, I heard that there is a Legendary Overlord in the Sunken City!”
Su Wan knew what would interest him. The Elemental Hearts! The Lords that were defeated till now had very low-level Elemental Hearts. Xu Yuan hadn’t been satisfied with them. He hadn’t even wanted to destroy the Territory Cores because the Overlords were so weak.
Xu Yuan wouldn’t have bothered with Baili Yun’s Territory Core if he hadn’t tried to hurt Su Wan. There were no Lords of Legendary Level here. However, Divine Knights were similar to the Lords.
The Divine Lords also happened to have something similar to the Territory Core. Perhaps, the later generations of Lords’ territories had evolved from them.
“Really?” Xu Yuan was interested.
The Lords of the ancient era were definitely not on the level of the Lords today. In the ancient era, anyone who had reached the title of the Divine Knights was not ordinary.
If he could obtain their elemental hearts, his Chaos Realm would grow powerful.
“Do you want to explore the ruins below?” asked Su Wan cautiously. She knew that Xu Yuan might still be feeling weak because of the recent fight.
However, if he agreed to go with her, the White Dragon Saint would surely follow.
Xu Yuan was unaware of Su Wan’s motives. He agreed to go with her to explore the ruins beneath them.
Su Wan was ready to explore the ruins with Xu Yuan and the White Dragon Saint. With a whoosh, the wings behind Su Wan’s back unfurled. She flew down with the help of those wings.
Su Wan was now more familiar with her transformative capabilities. She kept in mind that it had a time limit. If she used the transformation for a longer period of time, she would suffer some side effects. However, using it for a few minutes had little to no side effects.
“Xu Yuan, is this your doing?” she asked. She knew that her transformation was because of him. But she wanted to confirm once.
However, Xu Yuan pretended not to hear her.
Su Wan wanted to confirm it because she wanted to be sure about where she stood regarding Xu Yuan. She was thankful for him, and she wanted to change her perception of him in the future.
However, Xu Yuan didn’t want to tell her because he thought that she would thirst for more strength and power. He would never hear the end of it. The more he helped her, the greedier she would become.
The two of them had different thoughts on the matter.
After flying for a time, they finally reached the bottom.
“It’s so bright here!”
Both Su Wan and Xu Yuan were shocked by what they saw. There was a stretch of buildings that faintly glowed because of the ruins engraved on them.
Stone bricks, tiles, and pillars were all branded with ruins that emitted light. It kept the place brightly lit, as though the ruins were neon lights that lit up the dark.
“I feel that this place is not as simple as it seems!”
Su Wan looked around and found that the ruins stretched into the vast underground. The buildings, shimmering with runes, extended beyond what eyes could see.
The other end of the buildings was covered in mud and rocks.
“Could it be that these buildings extend beyond the edge of the city?” said Xu Yuan. “Maybe the Sunken City is bigger than we thought it would be. What if the Sunken City starts from here and continues for fifty kilometers?”
Xu Yuan’s words stunned Su Wan.
