Chapter 680 Burying the Wine (1/2)

Bzz!

Countless black threads of light swarmed past in Zhou Yuan’s body, arriving at the Dragon’s Resentment Poison’s location in the blink of an eye. Next, the black threads charged towards the Dragon’s Resentment Poison.

Chch!

Innumerable blood-red threads exploded from the Dragon’s Resentment Poison in an attempt to destroy the black threads.

However, the black threads were endless. They continuously charged through the blood-red threads like black chains and dashed into the Dragon’s Resentment Poison’s core.

Hss!

The Dragon’s Resentment Poison trembled violently.

Black thread after thread began to wrap around the Dragon’s Resentment Poison, slowly forming what appeared to be a black prison made from ancient runes, completely sealing the Dragon’s Resentment Poison within it.

Chch!

The Dragon’s Resentment Poison violently struggled, but prison made by the Dragon Subduing Rune was akin to magma to the red threads, causing them to shrink back upon touching it.

The wonders of the Dragon Subduing Rune were finally being revealed.

The Dragon’s Resentment Poison struggled for a long time. In the end, it realized the futility of its efforts and slowly began to curl into itself inside the prison.

When the poison stopped, Zhou Yuan finally felt the activity in his body begin to die down. Drenched in sweat, he looked towards his palm with a sickly pale face where an ancient black rune had appeared.

The rune was composed of multiple black circles, and within the center most circle was a blood-red dot. If one listened closely, one would be able to hear the faint angry roar of a mad dragon.

“Did it work?” mumbled Zhou Yuan.

In the past, Zhou Yuan had always felt as if there was an arrow aimed at his back when he looked at the Dragon’s Resentment Poison. It was a ticking time bomb inside his body that could explode at any moment.

But now, he no longer had such a feeling when he looked at it. The Great Dragon Subduing Rune appeared to have worked.

The Dragon’s Resentment Poison had been sealed away and suppressed.

“Yup, you no longer need to worry about the Dragon’s Resentment Poison erupting and attacking you.” Yaoyao’s voice sounded from behind.

Zhou Yuan was alarmed when he heard her, because it sounded quite weak. He immediately turned around and saw a rarely seen paleness on Yaoyao’s gorgeous face.

Zhou Yuan hurriedly rose to his feet and reached out to support Yaoyao’s thin arms as he somewhat tenderly said, “What happened to you?”

Yaoyao shook her head and said, “I’ll be alright after some rest.”

He had tried to probe for it earlier,but the mysterious purplish-gold substance seemed to have vanished without trace, as if it were hiding in the deepest recesses of his body.

The mysterious substance gave Zhou Yuan an indescribable feeling.

Ancient, mysterious, and powerful.

Yaoyao’s eyes flickered for a moment as she replied, “You’re overthinking things.”

Zhou Yuan was helpless at her denial. He knew that Yaoyao had far too many secrets, things that his current self was still unable to understand.

Regardless, eliminating the Dragon’s Resentment Poison problem was a cause for celebration. Since Yaoyao refused to talk about it, he would not press her any further.

Yaoyao sat down beside the table and retrieved a jar of Taoyao Wine. She swept a glance at Zhou Yuan as her lips curled slightly. “We’ll use this to celebrate you no longer having to suffer the pain of any relapses from the Dragon’s Resentment Poison.”

Zhou Yuan grinned. “I’ll accompany you till the end.
