Fire Dragon Duan Xiaodao has returned.

The once famous Dragon Soul Five Dragons of Huaxia’s mercenary world have finally gathered.

But now, no one can feel happy.

Duan Xiaodao is severely injured. Under Lin Qiushun’s treatment, the most optimistic estimate is that it will take more than a month for him to recover, even with Tang Wan’s newly developed miraculous healing medicine.

Of course, Duan Xiaodao’s injuries are one concern, but everyone is also worried about his emotions.

Ever since Duan Xiaodao woke up from his hospital bed, apart from greeting his long-missed brothers, he has spent most of his time with his head down, silent and speechless.

Not speaking used to be normal for Duan Xiaodao back then.

But now, everyone can see that Duan Xiaodao is feeling down, even despairing.

Especially after he called Han Zishuang, only to find her phone was disconnected.

Duan Xiaodao tried every possible way to contact Han Zishuang but to no avail.

There’s no doubt, the eccentric, moody, and cold-hearted Han Zishuang has cut off all contact with Duan Xiaodao.

Just like the last words she said to Duan Xiaodao when she left: ”The next time we meet, we’ll be enemies!”

Murong Fei, Liu Fei’er, and Lu Qing witnessed the love and conflict between Han Zishuang and Duan Xiaodao firsthand. They vividly recounted the events to Lin Yu, Xiao Zhuang, Yu Linglong, and others.

Listening to this, everyone sighed.

”Our Old Fourth, he rarely falls for someone. Unexpectedly, after finally falling for a woman, it ends like this...” Xiao Zhuang shook his head helplessly.

Lin Yu was also deeply moved: ”Who would’ve thought Old Fourth is such a passionate person.”

”Hehe, what about you? Aren’t you also?”

Yu Linglong seized the moment, softly smiling at Lin Yu, ”Once upon a time, someone fell head over heels in love with a woman...”

As soon as this was said, everyone couldn’t help but laugh.

Lin Yu, being the one mentioned, could only cough dryly, his face turning green.

”Brothers, I have something to discuss with you.”

As everyone chuckled lightly, the pondering Qin Tian sat up straight, scanning the group with his gaze, and said, ”I’m planning to release Zhao Baijing and the Skull’s Golden Heavenly King.”

”Old Fourth came out of Skull for me, and crucially, had a conflict with Han Zishuang...Han Zishuang might be deeply hurt both mentally and physically. On one hand, it’s because of what she perceives as Old Fourth’s betrayal, which will undoubtedly leave her distressed for some time. I believe Murong and the others also saw that Han Zishuang didn’t seem entirely heartless towards our Old Fourth.”

”After all, she’s a woman, and what happened with our Old Fourth...sigh, just look at Old Fourth’s current state. I think Han Zishuang may not be any better off than he is.”

”Of course, my main consideration for releasing these two people is that Han Zishuang’s mission encountered our Old Fourth. Then, she went back injured, which means her mission was a total failure. If that Skull’s so-called Red Heavenly King or the even more mysterious King Skeleton learns that Han Zishuang’s mission failed because of Old Fourth, and that we killed their White Heavenly King and Golden Heavenly King, I fear Han Zishuang will be punished.”

”No matter what, Han Zishuang is Old Fourth’s beloved, and besides capturing Murong and the others, she didn’t really do anything to harm others. So, I’ve decided to help her, which in turn helps Old Fourth, by releasing Zhao Baijing and the other.”

After Qin Tian finished speaking, he looked at Zhou Yang and the others, clearly seeking everyone’s opinion.

Zhou Yang nodded: ”Since the boss has decided, I support unconditionally.”

Xiao Zhuang also said: ”Release them if you want; after releasing them, we can capture them back. Haha, boss, in these fifteen days of seclusion, we’ve learned a lot about Qi Gong Practitioners and cultivators. Once we’re stronger, I believe the time when War Dragon crushes Skull will come soon!”

Cao Guojun, Lin Yu, and the others all expressed their stance, everyone decided to consider Duan Xiaodao’s feelings and release Zhao Baijing and the other.

That afternoon, Zhao Baijing and the Golden Heavenly King were released by Qin Tian.

The two were released somewhat inexplicably, a bit bewildered.

Especially the Golden Heavenly King, who wanted to ask Qin Tian for the treasures that Qin Tian had plundered. In response, Qin Tian said, ”Your martial arts have not yet recovered, say another word, and I’ll lock you back up immediately!”

A single sentence scared the Golden Heavenly King into fleeing in panic.

After releasing Zhao Baijing and the other, Qin Tian immediately held a meeting with everyone in Zhonghai City to discuss matters of cultivation and the upcoming response to Skull’s revenge.

First, concerning cultivation, after fifteen days of seclusion, among those secluded, only Zhou Yang is a Qi Gong Practitioner.

Qin Tian was curious about his background and asked about his parents. Zhou Yang scratched his head: ”I’ve been an orphan since childhood, I really don’t know who my parents are.”

Aside from Zhou Yang, others are progressing toward becoming Qi Gong Practitioners, but whether they can attain that status requires not only effort but also talent.

Of course, becoming an Immortality Cultivator requires even more talent.

Murong Fei, Liu Fei’er, and Lu Qing all attended the meeting. After hearing Qin Tian’s words, Murong Fei and Liu Fei’er, both curious, expressed their intention to join Xiao Zhuang and the others in cultivating to become Qi Gong Practitioners, following Qin Tian’s introduction.

As for Lu Qing, she’s not very interested in martial arts. Qin Tian understands well that what Lu Qing loves most is business, so he doesn’t force her.

Currently, within War Dragon, only Qin Tian and Duan Xiaodao are Immortality Cultivators, Zhou Yang is a Qi Gong Practitioner, and the rest are at most martial arts experts, with a significant distance from being Immortality Cultivators.

”With our current strength, dealing with the Skeleton Group directly doesn’t offer much chance of success.”

Switching topics, Qin Tian immediately addressed the issue of confrontation with Skull, ”All four Skull Heavenly Kings are Immortality Cultivators, and their leader, King Skeleton, is even more mysterious. We have no information on him at all. I suspect he’s not an ordinary Immortality Cultivator!”

As Qin Tian’s voice fell, Duan Xiaodao’s voice came from the villa’s second floor:

”I’ve been with Skull for more than two years and have never seen King Skeleton.”

Duan Xiaodao slowly descended the stairs from the second floor, Lin Qiushun quickly went to assist him.

”King Skeleton is not only mysterious worldwide but also within our Skeleton Group. Those who’ve seen him are basically only the leader of the Four Heavenly Kings, the Red Heavenly King, and King Skeleton’s adopted daughter...Purple...Heavenly King...”

When mentioning ”Purple Heavenly King,” Duan Xiaodao subconsciously paused, his expression suddenly dimming.
