Chapter 481: Get away with it

“It’s not you either.”

Soon, the Azure Winged Bat Dragon inspected everyone on the second Cloud Boat, and after confirming there was no trace of its offspring, it allowed that Cloud Boat to leave.

Two consecutive releases immediately excited everyone present.

It was clear that this Azure Winged Bat Dragon was not one to indiscriminately kill the innocent; this was incredibly good news.

Soon, as the Azure Winged Bat Dragon inspected one after another, more than half of the hundreds of Cloud Boats here had already been released by it.

Watching more people leave, the tense atmosphere among the Human Race Cultivators eased, but the Azure Winged Bat Dragon’s expression turned very ugly.

After all, it always believed that the murderer who killed its offspring was among these Human Race Cultivators.

But it had searched for a long time without any results; wasn’t this slapping its own face?

“Next!”

The Azure Winged Bat Dragon said, turning its gaze towards Qin Xuan’s Cloud Boat.

It had already inspected up to Qin Xuan’s side.

“What should we do, Young Master?”

On the Cloud Boat, Qianqian whispered a Mental Energy message to Qin Xuan.

Although her expression remained calm, it could be seen from her slightly trembling hand.

Qianqian was already flustered.

Others might not know who killed the Azure Winged Bat Dragon’s offspring, but she knew it all too well.

Although she hadn't seen how Qin Xuan killed the Azure Winged Bat Dragon’s offspring, the black clouds dispersing at that time had explained everything.

If it were another sea beast, she thought Qin Xuan might be able to fool it.

But this was the Azure Winged Bat Dragon!

One of the strongest and most powerful sea beasts in this ocean.

If they were discovered, both of them would die here.

“Fairy, don’t panic. If you lose your composure like this, you’ll expose us before that beast even comes to inspect.”

Qin Xuan whispered a Mental Energy message to Qianqian Fairy.

He signaled for her to calm down.

Qianqian Fairy took a deep breath, trying to calm herself.

However, despite her inner panic, she maintained a calm expression on her face from beginning to end.

This woman’s acting was truly too strong.

Qin Xuan couldn’t help but praise her; at critical moments, this woman’s acting was reliable.

The Azure Winged Bat Dragon moved its gaze to Qin Xuan’s Cloud Boat.

As its gaze swept over Qin Xuan and Qianqian Fairy, a strong impulse suddenly arose in its heart.

This impulse made it want to kill Qin Xuan on the spot!

“Hmm?”

As the thought arose, its gaze towards Qin Xuan instantly sharpened.

At the same time, a powerful Mental Energy surged towards Qin Xuan.

The Bat Dragon wanted to rely on its powerful Mental Energy pressure to make Qin Xuan collapse and submit.

“Did you kill my child?”

The Azure Winged Bat Dragon flew onto the Cloud Boat, gently landed on the deck, and walked towards Qin Xuan.

Feeling the opponent’s powerful Mental Energy, Qin Xuan instinctively wanted to suppress it with his own Divine Soul.

Although the Azure Winged Bat Dragon’s Divine Soul was very powerful, it was still not enough in front of Qin Xuan.

“Qin Xuan, don’t act rashly. If your Mental Energy is too strong, the other party will become suspicious.”

Just then, Han Ye suddenly spoke, signaling Qin Xuan to calm down.

Qin Xuan reacted, and instead of confronting the opponent’s Divine Soul suppression head-on, he remained vigilant.

His nerves were completely taut, and one hand had already touched the Array Plate.

If the other party truly made a move against him, he would use the Array Plate to leave here at any time.

Relying on his speed and the Array Plate, escaping to safety should not be too difficult.

Because it sensed that Qin Xuan’s Mental Energy was only ordinary, the Azure Winged Bat Dragon didn’t pay much attention, and the sudden warning sign in its heart slowly disappeared.

“I have not seen Your Excellency’s offspring.”

Cupping his hands towards the Azure Winged Bat Dragon, Qin Xuan spoke calmly, neither humble nor arrogant, completely fearless.

Seeing that Qin Xuan was not flustered, the Bat Dragon’s gaze swept over Qin Xuan, then it looked suspiciously at Qianqian on the other side, wanting to find a Breakthrough point on Qianqian.

It hadn't sensed any trace of its offspring on either of them, but the sudden warning sign before made it want to kill these two directly.

“Is that so?”

Qianqian calmly bowed to the Azure Winged Bat Dragon.

Then she smiled and nodded.

“Sir, we indeed haven’t seen your son.”

“My husband and I have been traveling day and night, enduring hardships, and have not seen your son. Please forgive us, Sir.”

Hmm?

Qin Xuan was startled and gave Qianqian a strange look, but now was not the time to dwell on such matters, so he could only temporarily endure it.

After repeatedly sensing Qin Xuan and Qianqian Fairy, and confirming there was no trace of its offspring on them, the Azure Winged Bat Dragon grew increasingly confused.

Looking at Qin Xuan, a hint of vigilance actually arose in the Azure Winged Bat Dragon’s heart.

It didn’t know why, but in the depths of its being, it always felt that this Human Race man in front of it was the murderer who killed its offspring, yet this person had no trace of its offspring on him.

Not only that, but this Human Race youth in front of it gave it a very dangerous feeling.

Strange, this shouldn’t be!

What was there for it to be vigilant about regarding a Cultivator of the Tianxuan Realm?

It eyed Qin Xuan suspiciously.

The Azure Winged Bat Dragon still refused to leave, pacing back and forth on the Cloud Boat.

“I always feel there’s something fishy about you. I might as well kill you!”

The Bat Dragon said, moving closer to Qin Xuan, seemingly wanting to make a move.

“Don’t panic, this Azure Winged Bat Dragon is trying to trick you!”

Han Ye reminded Qin Xuan.

“Just pretend to be scared by it.”

Qin Xuan tightened his grip on the Array Plate while cooperatively showing a panicked expression on his face, looking utterly terrified of the Bat Dragon.

“Sir, we truly haven’t seen your son. Please be merciful, Sir, and spare my husband!”

Qianqian immediately came over, tears streaming down her face, to plead for mercy.

The Bat Dragon still wanted to question them further when, at that moment, another Azure Winged Bat Dragon, which had not yet transformed, spoke from below.

“If it’s not him, then don’t strike. His wife has said so, what else do you want to do? Even if they are Human Race, don’t ruin their marriage.”

“But I always feel something is off about them…”

On the Cloud Boat deck, the human-shaped Azure Winged Bat Dragon still wanted to say something.

“Enough! Are you not listening to me anymore? Then you don’t need to come back tonight either!”

“There are still so many Human Race Cultivators to question; don’t waste time.”

On the sea surface, another Azure Winged Bat Dragon scolded.

“Alright, I’ll listen to you, my dear.”

On the deck, the human-shaped Azure Winged Bat Dragon said helplessly, only staring intently at Qin Xuan.

“Bat Dragon, that’s enough. If there’s no evidence, you cannot lay hands on the young talents of our Human Race.”

“This is what we’ve always agreed upon. If you dare to act unreasonably today, I will certainly not spare you.”

At this moment, the old man finally spoke.

Although his voice was not loud, it echoed all around, shaking the hearts of everyone present.

“Hmph, old man, my word is naturally my bond. I am not a treacherous villain like you Human Race. I am just a bit puzzled about this person.”

“Then does he have the aura of your offspring on him?”

“This, this, he indeed does not.”

“Then what are you keeping them here for? Why aren’t you letting them leave?”

The old man pressed on relentlessly.

Hearing this, the Bat Dragon snorted coldly, gave Qin Xuan a deep look, and waved its paw.

“Alright, you may leave.”

“Thank you, Sir.”

Qianqian cupped her hands towards the human-shaped Bat Dragon, then bowed to the Azure Winged Bat Dragon on the sea surface.

“Thank you, elder sister, for saving my husband’s life. This humble one is eternally grateful!”
