"Is there something special about his bloodline?" Soul Hooking Horse-Face rubbed his chin as he asked.
"He has dragon blood, I can sense this. But just based on this, the dragon essence might enter his body, but it shouldn't be as stable as it is now," Zhong Kui said as he stroked his beard.
"My Lord, you call this stable?"
Soul Hooking Horse-Face looked at Shen Luo who fell to the ground and rolled around as if he was on his deathbed. He couldn't help but swallow his saliva.
"Under normal circumstances, when the dragon essence enters an ordinary person's body, it should have rejected it seriously. Then the body would have exploded on the spot, but he can persist to this extent. It's very unusual," Zhong Kui said.
After he finished speaking, he couldn't help but have a strange thought in his heart. Could it be that the dragon essence was intentionally given to him by the Jinghe Dragon King?
Soul Hooking Horse-Face looked at Shen Luo with his eyes wide open. Naturally, he couldn't understand.
"There are still a lot of things to deal with in the Underworld. I'll take my leave first. You take care of him," Zhong Kui said and floated away.
Soul Hooking Horse-Face sighed and walked to the side to sit down silently. He watched as Yang Ming rolled on the ground, but his aura gradually rose from the early stage of the Soul Condensation Realm until he broke through two barriers and entered the late stage of the Soul Condensation Realm.
"Ah, stinking brat, if you roll a few more times, will I have to call you senior?" Soul Hooking Horse-Face exclaimed.
But just as he finished speaking, Shen Luo's body suddenly stiffened and he lay there completely motionless.
He was shocked and hurriedly went forward to check, but found that Shen Luo was fine and had just fainted. Only then did he feel relieved.
Shen Luo, on the other hand, felt as if he had just had a long and chaotic dream. When he woke up, he was already back in the Duke's residence.
At this time, more than half a month had passed since the chaotic battle.
In the morning, a ray of sunlight penetrated through the window and hit Shen Luo's eyelids. His eyelashes trembled slightly a few times before his eyes slowly opened.
He subconsciously covered his eyes, then slowly sat up and got off the bed.
After opening the door, he saw two petite maids standing by the door. There were also many armored guards standing in the courtyard. He frowned slightly and asked, "Where is this place?"
"Immortal Master, you're awake? This is the House of High Duke. "A maidservant immediately bowed and said.
The other person hurriedly excused himself, saying that he was going to inform Cheng Guogong, and then trotted away.
Shen Luo originally wanted to ask about the situation of the others, but he felt that the maidservant in front of him would not know, so he closed the door, turned back to the table in the room, and sat down.
After sitting down, Shen Luo secretly operated his magic power. At the same time, he used his Divine Thought to check his body. His face suddenly changed and he exclaimed,
"My magical power … when?"
He found that he was already a cultivator in the late stage of the Soul Condensation Realm, but he couldn't remember that he was injected with the Dragon Qi for a while.
While he was still in shock, the door was knocked open. Seven or eight servants of the Cheng Residence came in, carrying stacks of delicious delicacies and placing them on the table for him.
Shen Luo had already passed the fasting period, so he naturally didn't feel hungry. But when he smelled the aroma of these dishes, he couldn't help but eat. After washing up a little, he sat down and ate heartily.
"Dong Dong"
After a while, there was a sudden knock on the door that was not closed.
Shen Luo turned his head and saw a tall and slender woman in red standing by the door. She was sizing him up with a smile in her eyes.
"Xie Fellow, come in and sit down." Shen Luo grinned and didn't get up. He directly invited her in.
"It looks like you have completely recovered." Xie Yuxin didn't stand on ceremony. While talking, she walked in and sat down directly opposite him.
A clever-looking maid had already brought over a set of chopsticks and bowls and brought it to her.
Xie Yuxin didn't touch the bowls and chopsticks. She just poured a glass of wine for Shen Luo, and then poured herself a glass and raised it to toast to Shen Luo.
"What are you doing?" Shen Luo was a little surprised.
"Thank you, Elder Brother Shen, for saving my life before." Xie Yuxin said sincerely, raising the wine glass and drinking it.
"It's just a small matter. Speaking of which, your previous injury was not light. How did you recover so quickly? "Shen Luo heard the words, waved his hand and said with a smile.
"Fast? Elder Brother Shen probably doesn't know that it has been more than half a month since we went to the underworld to fight with Jing He Dragon King. "Xie Yuxin raised her brows and said in confusion.
"What? You mean, I have been unconscious for more than half a month? "Shen Luo was stunned. He didn't realize it at all.
Xie Yuxin was about to answer when a burst of hearty laughter came from outside the door.
"Haha … Little Shen, you're finally awake. Otherwise, I would have gone to hell. When that Soul-Hooking Horse-Face sent you back, he said that you would wake up in three days. Who would have thought that it would take so long?" Cheng Yaojin walked all the way from outside the courtyard. He directly crossed the threshold, walked to the table, and sat down.
"Greetings, Senior Cheng Yaojin." Shen Luo and Xie Yuxin stood up at the same time and cupped their fists.
"Sit, sit, sit. Why are you being so polite with me? During the ghost crisis in Chang 'an, you have contributed a lot and made a great contribution. "Cheng Yaojin said with a smile.
Shen Luo and Xie Yuxin looked at each other and smiled, then sat down again.
"Senior, I have been unconscious for a long time. I wonder how the situation in the city is?" Shen Luo asked.
"You've defeated that evil dragon and foiled the Body Refining Altar's scheme. After these fellows who caused the calamity were eradicated, the ghost calamity in the city was no longer a big deal. Over the past few days, most of them have been eliminated. Most of the lost land in the south of the city has been reclaimed. However, it will take some time to settle the people back, "Cheng Yaojin said.
"That's good … That's right, Lu Huaming was also seriously injured that day. How is he now?" Shen Luo suddenly thought of something and quickly asked.
"That kid … he was too stubborn this time. He used that move in that kind of situation. His body was overdrawn too much. If he was careless, he would have hurt his Dao foundation. Fortunately, he was saved in time. The State Preceptor personally treated him and removed the hidden dangers in his body. However, he had no choice but to drop in his realm. "Cheng Yaojin said with a slightly reproachful expression.
"Then where is he now?" Shen Luo asked.
Speaking of which, although Jinghe Dragon King was captured by Shen Luo in the end and eventually died due to the dissipation of his dragon essence, it was Lu Huaming who had contributed the most to defeating him.
"He woke up two days ago. After coming to see you once, he went into seclusion. It seems that he will not come out of seclusion until his strength drops. However, you don't have to worry. He is very talented. This drop in his realm may not be a bad thing for him. You, on the other hand, suddenly increased a small realm. Do you feel uncomfortable? "Cheng Yaojin asked.
