Chapter 2624: I Need to Go Back
“Can you do me a favor? My master’s family is searching for him on the surface. Can you help me bring his family down here?” said the flood dragon. If the white flood dragon was unwilling to do that, it would just have to do it on its own.
“No problem!” The white flood dragon agreed without hesitation. It wasn’t usually helpful. It agreed to help simply because the flood dragon wanted it to do it a favor.
It hadn’t seen other flood dragons for a very long time, so it got excited when it met the flood dragon, especially since the flood dragon was a male.
Even if it didn’t go, the flood dragon didn’t have enough strength to swim up now.
“After you swim out, you’ll sense some magical power. Follow it and you’ll see a young girl named Gu Ning. When you see her, tell her that I told you to bring her down here,” said the flood dragon.
“Can she understand our language?” The white flood dragon was surprised.
“Of course, she’s my ex owner. And she sent me to my current master,” said the flood dragon.
“What’s their relationship?” asked the white flood dragon.
“They’re engaged,” said the flood dragon. It lost a little patience when the white flood dragon asked it so many questions, but it couldn’t get mad. “Go now, help me bring the girl down, or she might leave!”
“Fine, I’m leaving.” The white flood dragon left afterwards. It talked with the flood dragon for so long because it hadn’t met other flood dragons for a very long time. It wasn’t its fault that it was more talkative now.
After the white flood dragon swam out, it started searching for the magical power the flood dragon told it about. Because the white flood dragon wasn’t weaker than the flood dragon, it quickly sensed the magical power and followed it ahead.
However, it suddenly lost the trace of the magical power halfway through and got confused. What happened? How come the magical power suddenly disappeared?
Although the magical power disappeared, the white flood dragon still swam forward in the same direction to see whether it could find it again.
Actually, Gu Ning had released magical power for a whole day and was out of strength now. She had to stop it and rest first to regain her energy. Otherwise, she might pass out before finding Leng Shaoting.
The white flood dragon floated out of the surface of the water. Because it was dark, the white flood dragon couldn’t see far, but in its view, it didn’t see any human beings or sense any other creatures.
At this moment, Gu Ning was already far from the white flood dragon.
Shangguan Yang and Jing Yunyao went to Gu Ning’s yacht one after another. They failed to find Leng Shaoting and the flood dragon as well.
“Perhaps someone rescued Leng Shaoting. Perhaps he fell unconscious after being injured, so he didn’t contact us,” said Jing Yunyao. It was the only possibility she could think of after failing to find Leng Shaoting. She refused to believe that Leng Shaoting was dead.
“It’s possible,” said Gu Ning.
“Should we go back now? I think we can go to see whether there were ships passing by this area. Perhaps they have rescued Shaoting,” said Shangguan Yang.
They had searched for a day around a radius of dozens of kilometers in the ocean, but still couldn’t see Leng Shaoting. Even if they continued, they might not get a result. In that case, they had to think of another way.
Gu Ning and Jing Yunyao hesitated for a while, because they were reluctant to leave like that, but Shangguan Yang’s words made sense. Therefore, after hesitating for a while, they agreed to go back.
Therefore, Gu Ning missed the opportunity to see the white flood dragon and the chance to know that the flood dragon and Leng Shaoting were at the bottom of the ocean.
…
When the white flood dragon was back to its carve, it said, “The magical power suddenly disappeared when I was swimming towards it.”
“…” The flood dragon was struck dumb for a second, but it wasn’t the white flood dragon’s fault. It woke up too late, and it also knew that Gu Ning would have to leave after searching for Leng Shaoting for a whole day.
In that case, the flood dragon felt it was necessary for it to go out by itself.
“Please help me take care of him. I need to go out,” said the flood dragon.
“You’re still injured. Are you sure you can handle it?” The white flood dragon rolled its eyes at the flood dragon.
The flood dragon’s original injuries were only slightly lighter than Leng Shaoting’s. It was able to wake up so quickly because the white flood dragon gave it some breath, otherwise it would still be asleep now!
Because they were the same species, the white flood dragon could give breath to the flood dragon, but Leng Shaoting was a human being, so it was useless for him.
“…”
Hearing that, the flood dragon suddenly realized that it was indeed very weak at the moment. In fact, when it swam over from the front cave, it already found it difficult. But it cared too much about Leng Shaoting, so it didn’t pay much attention to its own condition.
“Well, then I’ll have a rest tonight. I think I will be more energetic tomorrow. I’ll swim up then.” The flood dragon understood that Gu Ning and the others must be very worried, but it couldn’t do anything about it.
It couldn’t ask the white flood dragon to help it again, because the white flood dragon didn’t know the route. And the white flood dragon had never been out of the water before. If it caused any trouble by accident, it would be terrible.
“Hey, what’s your name?” asked the white flood dragon.
“I don’t have one.” The flood dragon replied.
“Why didn’t your master give you a name?” asked the white flood dragon.
“No, my master just calls me flood dragon,” said the flood dragon.
“Your body is black, so I’ll call you Black Dragon,” said the white flood dragon.
“Whatever,” said the flood dragon. It didn’t care about that at all.
The white flood dragon was happy about the answer. Actually, if the flood dragon was also a female, the white flood dragon wouldn’t be so nice.
After all, people of the same gender were competitors and other creatures obeyed the same rule.
“I don’t have a name either, but my body is white, so you can call me White Dragon. Oh, you can also directly call me White, and I’ll just call you Black. We don’t need to call each other dragon,” said the white flood dragon.
“Alright,” said the flood dragon.
“Hey, Black, how’s the world outside?” asked the white flood dragon. It always wanted to have a tour outside, but didn’t have the courage.
Although it was a flood dragon at a high level, it knew that it was a special species and it should avoid humans.
