Chapter 14 – Hunting and Escaping
“I want to, to you, to weave…… A shroud!” Zu Xian screamed sharply, and her body writhed wildly, making a dying struggle.
The sane part of her body still existed, and she knew that death was inevitable.
Qi Yuan walked up to her and picked up another piece of dragon scale that she was holding in her hand, but he didn’t move for a long time as if admiring the ugliness of her struggle. Zu Xian raised her head resentfully but saw that Qi Yuan’s expression was very strange.
Madness and tyranny, and the struggle to suppress the desire to kill, mixed up with a very sober pain.
Zu Xian was keenly aware that maybe in her, Qi Yuan saw his own end. It was so funny that she couldn’t help but laugh, she swayed back and forth, “HAAHAHAHH, you, the same as me, monster…”
Qi Yuan suddenly took a step back, and his dragon’s claws tried to take out the Death Elixir from his pocket, but he almost failed several times.
“That’s the Elixir of Death, right?” Qin Hang gasped, “Didn’t Doctor Feng say that you can only drink it once every month, otherwise even if it is you boss, you will die!”
The dragon represents the peak of life, and the god of death represents the ultimate death- Qi Yuan has always forcibly fought against the tyrannical dragon blood by drinking this type of medicine. Every time he did so, he was gambling with his life, and if he could not maintain the balance at both ends of the scale, he would either fall into insanity or die, there was no other ending.
The claws tore through his pockets but Qi Yuan didn’t find the Elixir of Death, this was when he felt the silver key hanging from his chest, the one used to open the handcuffs of Ye Zhan. Qi Yuan’s movements paused, and he held the key in the palm of his hand. The world in his eyes seemed to burn in an endless stream of black fire, everything twisted into a terrible mess, and all living beings either surrendered or tore each other apart…… Only when he saw the key did he see a fleeting, moon-like silver light.
His heart beat heavily as Qi Yuan grabbed the key as if grasping all his hopes and desires.
He used great willpower to control himself to turn his body around and he no longer showed any care for the dying Zu Xian. He approached the landing fighter jet and thrust the black spike back into his chest, controlling himself to cool down.
With the help of the man in a black cloak, the dragonization state on his body slowly disappeared, and the blood in his eyes faded slightly.
Qi Yuan touched the top of his head and made sure that the dragon horn had become as short as it used to be, so he patted his hat and put it back on his head. He took off his tattered clothes, put on a trench coat and jacket left in the fighter, and washed his face and hands with mineral water……
Seeing him return to normal, the other three were relieved, although there were many doubts in their hearts, but no one dared to say a word, for fear that a spark would blow up the one that had finally cooled down.
After cleaning up, Qi Yuan got into the fighter jet, leaned back in his chair, closed his eyes, and said nothing. Only his body was still tightly tensed, as if ready to jump up and prey at any moment.
In this way, they left behind Zu Xian who had not yet died, and set sail again.
The fog and silkworm nets brought great difficulty to flying, and Qin Hang did not dare to break out recklessly- he tried his best to find a way out while holding back the sweat of his head.
Suddenly, the wind blew in front of them, blowing away the boundless sea of fog, and the wind was like a knife, cutting the continuous silk and sweeping a safe road for them.

It wasn’t until he was about to turn to the fighter jet that Fan Xiao, who couldn’t hold back his words, finally couldn’t help but ask,
“Qts vlvc’a sbe xlii Ie Wljc?”
“Pa’r fjrs ab xlii tfg, yea la’r tjgvfg ab cba xlii tfg.” Hl Tejc’r fsfr kfgf ralii mibrfv. Obbxlcu bnfg ogbw atf rlvf, Mjc Wljb mbeiv rff tlr fsfijrtfr agfwyilcu rilutais.

“Suppressing desires is conducive to maintaining sanity,” Qi Yuan said, “You may also come to that day in the future and find that the hardest part of the battle is against yourself.”
Fan Xiao understood this sentence according to his own logic, “Oh, I understand now- that Zu Xian is too greedy, if she obediently didn’t attack us, how can she be beaten so badly?”
“She’s very smart,” Qi Yuan said, “She’ll let a small number of worthless people enter and exit safely, and use them to spread the reputation of her weaving nests in order to lure more people over. When she encounters something that interests her, she will not hesitate to kill.”
As he spoke, he took out a small black notebook and wanted to record the information. He felt that he had returned to normal, thinking and speaking in good order, but as soon as he took out the pen, he broke it in half, and the black ink flowed on his hand.
He couldn’t control his strength, let alone write.
Qi Yuan took back the notebook casually and silently wiped off the ink. He suddenly thought of something, picked up the small key on his chest, and looked at it, sure enough, the key had been completely deformed by himself and turned into a piece of metal waste that could no longer open any locks.
At 7 p.m., they returned to the ship.
The fighter jet was moored in the cabin, and Feng Rao and some of his men were already waiting, all looking at them. Qi Yuan has always been a quality Alpha, and he will restrain his pheromones in a measured manner, but at this moment, it is difficult for him to suppress his aura.
Alphas who are sensitive to the smell of the strong would feel like they were facing an enemy- they were all feeling uneasy and afraid.
Correspondingly, Qi Yuan was also uncomfortable, too many Alpha scents gathered together would also stimulate his beastly nature.
“You guys go back first, it’s all right here.” Although Feng Rao is a beta and can’t smell the pheromones in the air, he is very good at reading the atmosphere and after confirming that the four of them were all right, he dispersed the others and said to Qi Yuan, “Why were you fighting again, didn’t you say it was safe?”
“Accident.” Qi Yuan pinched his eyebrows, and his other hand fumbled for something in the bag.
“I warned you, you are not allowed to drink the Elixir of Death,” Feng Rao said in an aggravated tone, “Yoy just drank it a few days ago, do you want to die?”
He saw Qi Yuan take out a glass jar from his backpack, which contained colorful bunny gummies. Then he watched as Qi Yuan, who was still in a state of irritability, unscrew the lid, poured a bunch of gummies into his mouth, and chew at it expressionlessly.
“I’ll prescribe you a few tranquilizers, you’re in a dangerous state right now.”
Qi Yuan was noncommittal and asked, “What is Ye Zhan doing?”
“He’s not in a good mood today.”
“Yes.” Qi Yuan smiled, “I’ll go see him.”
Ye Zhan waited patiently until it got dark as he wouldn’t be stupid enough to fly out in broad daylight, which would undoubtedly provide a live target for the ship’s missiles. At this time, each of his wings grew to be more than two meters long, and some heroic features appeared faintly on his body.
He wasn’t worried about the symptoms, as long as his sanity wasn’t affected, the symptoms of the infection would slowly disappear, and the wings would wilt and fall off on their own.
Ye Zhan sat on the edge of the bed, fiddling with the silver chain on his right wrist, and he had determined these days that no matter how violent the means, there was no way to untie the shackles. Now the only way left is to pull his hand out forcibly.
He doesn’t know how to shrink his bones but if he wants to get his hand out of the silver ring, he can only break his hand’s bones.
Admittedly, this would cause great pain and could cause him a disability, but Ye Zhan weighed it and felt that the price was worth it. Through chatting with Feng Rao, he has roughly figured out the current area, as long as he finds a doctor quickly after getting out of trouble, then his right hand can still be saved.
Ye Zhan first tried to break his thumb, but even if he was such a person who could bear pain he still couldn’t help but gasp. Just as he hesitated, he suddenly heard the sound of the doorknob turning, as if someone wanted to come in.
Blocked by furniture, his attempt to enter the door was unsuccessful for a while, so there was another knock on the door, like a few muffled thunders before a storm.
“Doctor Feng?” Ye Zhan tried to exclaim, “I’m already asleep, what’s the matter?”
At the same time, he could no longer hesitate and pinched his right hand and broke it vigorously.
He was answered with a loud bang.
The door was blasted out of its hinges- the wardrobe, a chest of drawers, and a small square table flew out, and the metal blast door hit the wall hard, almost deformed. Qi Yuan put his hands in his pockets and maintained the posture of raising his feet and kicking the door.
Ye Zhan was stunned, as if he saw a Tyrannosaurus rex breaking into the door, damn it, it’s been 2323 years, why is there such an unscientific thing happening in the world?! He subconsciously pulled his scrapped right hand out of the handcuffs and pulled out the glass shards from under the pillow.
Yes, shards of glass, the only weapon he had, like an infantry in the age of cold weapons, alone in the face of a thermonuclear warhead.
He believed that Qi Yuan was also surprised by his appearance, because the man was a little surprised at first, and then showed a rather interesting smile, tilted his head sideways, and shook his neck.
“Where do you want to go?”
Ye Zhan immediately jumped towards the window but faster than him was a gust of wind that slammed the window shut! Immediately after, Qi Yuan approached him at an incredible speed, his five fingers were about to choke his throat but Ye Zhan jumped back, and his left hand holding the glass slashed forward.
Qi Yuan, the madman, didn’t even know how to dodge, the sharp glass slashed across his chest, but there was a piercing scratching sound, and what the shard met was not flesh and blood at all. The glass in his hand was completely shattered, but Qi Yuan didn’t seem to feel pain at all, Ye Zhan was stunned for a moment, subconsciously retreated, stuck to the wall, and then rolled sideways to avoid his fist.
The punch slammed into the wall, but there was a sound of metal colliding, and the wall was dented, but Qi Yuan was completely uncaring of this as he turned his head to look at him, his eyes red like boiling magma.
“Wait! You are crazy!” Ye Zhan’s cold sweat came down, “Calm down, okay?!”
“Why run away?” Qi Yuan asked in a cold voice.
He didn’t move, but Ye Zhan sensitively felt a hint of something wrong, and quickly avoided the place he was standing on. The next moment, the wardrobe behind him was torn down by the strong wind, and the whole thing fell apart.
At this time, they had completely changed their positions, Qi Yuan was by the window, and Ye Zhan was by the door.
Sure enough, I still have to flee! Ye Zhan immediately made a decision, it was better to be caught by someone else than to stay with this madman!
Faster than he could think, a gust of wind struck, and the door that was about to be scrapped was about to close, only to be slammed open. It turned out that Ye Zhan picked up a chair leg on the spot and threw it out, which happened to jam the door. Ye Zhan’s speed was as fast as a ghost, and he was about to get out of the door when he suddenly felt a pain in his back, he didn’t when Qi Yuan approached him and grabbed his wings!
Damn, if he hadn’t had those wings in the way, he would have slipped out! Ye Zhan screamed he was about to fall to the ground in pain, but Qi Yuan’s hand that grabbed his wings let go of them hesitantly. He seized the opportunity, turned around with incredible flexibility, and shook a small silver dinner knife out of his sleeve. Qi Yuan immediately reached out and grabbed his left hand, trying to suppress him with brute force.
And this is exactly what Ye Zhan has been calculating—since he was captured, he has been acting supple and weak, which made Qi Yuan misestimate his strength. And now, after being infected by Ying Zhao, his muscle strength has increased greatly. Ye Zhan didn’t dodge for the first time, but instead went up to Qi Yuan’s fist, forcibly opened his hand, and inserted the small dining knife that flashed silver into Qi Yuan’s neck.
He could see clearly that Qi Yuan’s neck was not covered with dragon scales.
It’s a pity that Qi Yuan still avoided a little and the table knife was only inserted into the side of the neck, and it didn’t hurt important blood vessels, and the amount of bleeding was pitiful.
He seemed to be shocked by this blow, and even froze his body briefly, his vertical pupils slightly dilated.
Ye Zhan subconsciously licked the corners of his mouth, and the blood oozing from the wound made him excited. If it was his habitual right hand, he would even have time to slash the knife to the side, and in just a few centimeters, he could cut the throat of his prey. Even at an extreme disadvantage, even if the prey is a dragon, a patient hunter can always wait for an opportunity.
It’s a pity that there is a monster in front of him that can’t be measured by common sense, and it’s important to escape! As soon as the blow was successful, Ye Zhan immediately broke away and ran towards the window.
He also had a killer weapon, he guessed that Qi Yuan could manipulate the wind to deal with him, but Ying Zhao was also a kind of flying beast that had some ability to control the wind. Ye Zhan was ready to wait for him to make a move, and then unexpectedly created a violent wind to counterattack and quickly escaped.
But Qi Yuan stood still and didn’t move, just pulled out the knife and threw it on the ground with a large stream of blood gushing out of his neck.
With a “cangchang” sound, Ye Zhan heard the mournful sound of metal falling to the ground.
uuuuuuuuu someone’s out of control
🫣 feels like I saw something I shouldn’t have
