Reincarnated As A Demonic Dragon, I Formed A Pact With A Beautiful Female Lord

Chapter 84 - 84 The Unlucky Shi Linglong

84 The Unlucky Shi Linglong

Ling Yun confessed everything about being a foreign member of the Dark Screen. Oscar couldn’t take it anymore.

Oscar assumed that if they remained unyielding in the face of the enemy and did not leak the news, the enemy would keep them alive. After all, they would have some value. However, if they blurted out everything, they would be deemed no longer important.

Ling Yun had confessed everything. Now, Oscar had to be careful because the enemy might keep Ling Yun alive and kill him off.

Xu Yuan looked at Oscar with eyes narrowed. “That guy has already shown his value,” he said, pointing at Ling Yun.

Oscar understood what he meant. Ling Yun would be spared, but he still needed to prove that he had some information in order to survive.

“I still have value!” Oscar blurted out. However, he couldn’t think of anything to make Xu Yuan interested enough to spare his life.

Su Wan and Xu Yuan discussed the matter and decided to lock the two of them away. They were, after all, members of the Dark Screen and posed a great threat to everybody. The Inter-Campus Tournament was around the corner and more members of the Dark Screen would be emerging to make trouble.

“Eh? What’s this?” Xu Yuan looked at them. Ling Yun and Oscar’s wrists glowed faintly.

“You are trying to send information through this thing?” Xu Yuan asked. He shattered their bracelets.

With a buzz, the two bracelets turned to dust and disappeared. Xu Yuan withdrew his claws and returned to the throne to sleep. However, the dust reemerged and drifted toward Shi Linglong.

“Wait… what’s happening?!” exclaimed Shi Linglong. Although she didn’t know what exactly was happening, she knew that her luck was rotten.

Oscar rushed to explain. “This is a special method of the organization,” he said. “It is used to mark and track people who pose a threat to the organization.”

Shi Linglong was stunned. ‘How am I a threat?’

“In the Dark Screen, they use this special method to ensure the safety of their members,” said Ling Yun. “Every member wears a bracelet like this. When a member dies, the bracelet marks those in proximity to the dead member. This makes it easier for the organization to track people who might have been involved in the death of the member of the Dark Screen.”

“Master, since you shattered the bracelet, the mechanism registers us as dead,” said Ling Yun. He could tell that the Dark Dragon King was extremely powerful. He shattered the bracelet so easily, after all. Therefore, he addressed Xu Yuan as “Master” to make a good impression on him.

“There are only a few people here,” said Ling Yun. “The mechanism must have glitched, so it randomly marked one of you.” Ling Yun hesitated. He didn’t know if he should say anything further.

Shi Linglong understood. “So, it chose me?” she asked in frustration. “There are four of us here. Why is it that the bracelet only marked me?”

Shi Linglong felt like she was going mad. She was now convinced that she was, indeed, a troublemaker. She was sure that she had rotten luck.

She had thought that Su Wan was just teasing her when she called her a troublemaker. However, with so many events happening around her, she believed it to be true.

Xu Yuan had a different opinion. He didn’t think that Shi Linglong was marked just because she was a troublemaker. From what he understood, Ling Yun and Oscar, obviously, were the members of the Dark Screen, so the bracelet wouldn’t mark them.

Xu Yuan was a Demon Dragon. He was too strong to be marked. Su Wan had a special connection to him as his Lord, so she was under his protection. Hence, she wasn’t marked, either.

The Flower Fairy, though ordinary in appearance, was a formidable hero at her peak in the Hero Plane. So, she wasn’t marked either.

The only one left was Shi Linglong. The bracelet found her to be the one who could be easily bullied, so it latched onto her.

“Wanwan, am I jinxed?” said Shi Linglong sadly. “Why do I always encounter these things?”

Su Wan tried to comfort her friend. Shi Linglong decided to return to her territory. Now that her territory was safe, she could go back in peace.

However, Shi Linglong was becoming more certain that she was jinxed. She didn’t want to stay and cause trouble for Su Wan.

“Wanwan, thank you for your help,” said Shi Linglong. “I will find you again when you’re free.”

Shi Linglong left. On the way to her territory, she realized that she had forgotten to question Su Wan about using her as bait. She had brought a lot of trouble to Su Wan’s territory. However, it seemed that Su Wan had anticipated all of it and even used her to lure the enemies.

“When did they plan everything?” muttered Shi Linglong. The more she thought about it, she got that much more overwhelmed.

The Flower Fairy wanted to say something but stopped herself. She wanted to tell Shi Linglong that Su Wan and Xu Yuan might have started planning the moment she reached Su Wan’s territory. However, she was afraid of offending Xu Yuan. In the end, she pretended not to know anything and watched Shi Linglong struggle with her thoughts.

…

Su Wan’s territory didn’t look desolate after the recent battle. Instead, it looked even more prosperous. Numerous soldiers started building their own small houses in the territory to stay in.

Xu Yuan and Su Wan walked to the Territory Core. Xu Yuan was looking forward to the upgrade of the Territory Core to Level 3. Su Wan was also excited. She cast a glance at Xu Yuan. She remembered that when the Territory Core got upgraded to Level 3, he could take a human form. Su Wan was looking forward to it!

The Lord and the hero studied the Territory Core.
