Although it is a bit shabby, this heroic spirit is super strong

After the smoke cleared, a deep hole appeared in front of Xiao and the others.

"It's not enough. Let's do it again. By the way, everyone, prepare to fight."

"Ok."

"understood."

"Eh? Why?"

"What's wrong with you lately? You seem to be getting stupider."

Xiao looked at Crystal doubtfully.

"What are you suddenly saying?"

"Kyle doesn't dare to take the dragon egg. It's likely that there's something guarding the dragon egg that he can't handle."

"So that's it."

"And at the beginning, shouldn't you have thought that the wall could regenerate?"

"You talk like you've already noticed."

Crystal looked at Xiao with great dissatisfaction.

"Ah."

"Then why didn't you say it earlier?"

"Of course it's fun to see you anxious."

Xiao explained very seriously.

"You bastard... eh?!"

Crystal didn't know what she was thinking about, and she blushed shyly.

"Are you still worried about us leaving?"

"Eh? Um...yes."

"Everyone has their ups and downs, so just be more open-minded about this kind of thing. It's not like we won't see each other again."

"But...but..."

"Brother Xiao, you are so insane."

Rose grumbled quietly beside Xiao, and Lucy kicked him in dissatisfaction.

"Don't be impatient, you two."

Xiao rubbed their heads and signaled them to behave themselves.

"After the matter in Macaulay County is over, if you want, we can take you with us."

"Eh? B-But..."

Crystal fell into a brief silence.

If Ed successfully inherits the McCauley family, there will be no problem even if she leaves.

It would be better to say that she should leave Macaulay.

After all, Crystal is the daughter of Lester's legal wife, and staying in Macaulay itself poses a great threat to Ed, who was born as an illegitimate child.

In addition, Crystal's influence in Nosti is too great, which will hinder Ed after he inherits the position of head of the family.

But when she saw Xiao, Crystal was very hesitant.

Even though she was reluctant to admit it, she knew that she liked Xiao very much.

However, she didn't know what Xiao thought of her.

Moreover, during the adventure in Crystal Valley, Crystal has fully realized the huge gap in strength between herself and Lucy and Rose.

She was afraid that she would become a burden to Akatsuki and the others.

"Then, I'll take care of it then."

Crystal mustered up the courage to answer Xiao, and felt very annoyed when she saw the smirk on his face.

"You didn't just peek into my thoughts, did you?!"

"Abusing mind reading will give you a headache, so I won't do that kind of thing."

Crystal looked at Xiao's playful smile and felt even more unhappy.

"And I can tell what you're thinking right now without having to read your mind."

After hearing what Xiao said, Crystal only now realized that her cheeks were flushed.

"Um, Xiao-ge, can I start now?"

Rose asked Xiao awkwardly.

The two sisters also really wanted Crystal to be with them next time, so they did not disturb them.

Although I'm a little jealous of the delicate atmosphere between Crystal and Xiao.

"let's start."

Rose attacked the wall with the magic spear again.

When the smoke cleared again, a ray of blue light shot out.

When the few people entered the hidden area, a huge magic-sealing crystal stood in the center of the cave.

The black object faintly visible in the crystal seems to be the legendary dragon egg.

"There doesn't seem to be anything guarding here?"

Crystal looked around. Apart from the huge magic-sealing crystal in the center, the cave was very empty.

"I guess it's hidden somewhere. What conditions are needed to trigger it to come out?"

Xiao picked up a stone from the ground and threw it hard at the crystal.

"For example, the most important thing is attacked or something."

The stone hit the transparent barrier wall outside the crystal, emitting a dazzling white light.

The cave suddenly shook violently.

"Can't you tell me before you do something like this?"

Crystal complained a little panicked.

She felt something large moving underground.

"There's nothing wrong with Lucy and Rose."

"Ah, I'm just used to being forced by you."

Lucy rolled her eyes at Xiao.

"Stop chatting, that thing is out."

As soon as Rose finished speaking, nine huge skeleton snake heads emerged from the ground.

Chapter 30: Pure White Tomb

"Wait a minute!"

Xiao felt something was wrong and signaled others not to attack first.

The giant snake showed no hostility and seemed to be examining the group.

"But…"

Lucy was about to retort, but the giant snake's actions surprised her so much that she was speechless.

The nine snake heads bowed humbly in front of Xiao.

"Did you do something?"

Crystal was also very surprised and asked Xiao in a low voice.

"Even if you ask me..."

The giant snake seemed to understand the shock of the few people and suddenly retreated back underground.

When they left, they left a passage on the ground.

"Does this mean we should go down?"

Rose put her weapon away, feeling very curious.

"Come on, go down and have a look."

The passage was not particularly long, and the group arrived underground after walking for more than ten minutes.

In a spacious space, a white stone tablet stands in the center.

The nine-headed skeletal snake from before was coiled at the edge of the cave, watching Xiao and the others.

"this is…"

When the group arrived in front of the stone tablet, Crystal felt very confused.

She seemed to have seen similar words somewhere, but didn't recognize them.

"tombstone."

Xiao looked at the Japanese words on the tombstone with a complicated expression.

[Pure White Princess

Tomb of Evelyn Evelina Greenhild

"Xiao, are you okay?"

The three noticed that Akatsuki felt something was wrong after entering the cave.

Xiao seemed to have not heard the three people's calls at all, and gently stroked the tombstone.

"I'm sorry I came to see you so late."

Xiao murmured to the tombstone in ancient dragon language.

"Yiwen Jielin, you brought back some weird things again."

A black-haired boy was lying on a rock basking in the sun, and spoke lazily to the girl who was running towards him.

This girl has very beautiful silver-white hair and eyes as beautiful as sapphires.

Her fair skin is soft and delicate, like a porcelain doll.

But the black thing in her arms was totally out of place on the girl.

“Brother Taylor, this little guy is not a strange thing.”

The girl puffed up her cheeks unhappily and placed the thing in her arms in front of Thales.

It was a strange creature with many tentacle-like things growing on a black mass of flesh.

Looking at the faint pulsation, one can barely tell that this thing is a living creature.

"what is this?"

"do not know."

"Then why did you pick it up?! What if it's a dangerous monster?"

"This little guy is so cute, how could he be dangerous!"

The girl was very annoyed by what Taylor said and kicked him a few times with her little feet in dissatisfaction.

"Oh, forget it. Where are Sister Aimi and the others? Aren't they done soaking yet?"

"Well, it'll take a while."

"Hey, it's not like I haven't seen them taking a bath before, why are you still shy now?"

Thales looked up at the sky and complained dissatisfiedly.
