Daily Intelligence System: Don't Kill Me, Honey!

Chapter 1100: Chapter 267: Stepping into the Dragon Realm, Dragon and Phoenix Forge the Golden Core

The two seemed to be locked in a tug-of-war, starting a battle for control over the body.

Chen Jie believed that with his Chang Chun Skill, he could hold on for a while, but unexpectedly, in just a moment, Chen Jie found his mind becoming fuzzy.

The potency of this golden water’s poison was truly extreme.

Chen Jie even felt his Chang Chun Skill couldn’t withstand it. No, it wasn’t just a feeling—it really couldn’t withstand it!

Wave after wave of terrifying power began to penetrate Chen Jie’s body.

Chen Jie felt as if he was about to explode.

He was also sinking slowly into the depths, when suddenly, a silhouette, as agile as a swimming fish, appeared before Chen Jie and embraced him.

Instantly, a warmth spread throughout Chen Jie’s body.

So warm.

Chen Jie burrowed into the warmth, then tried hard to open his eyes, as if he saw a beautiful face.

Moreover, it was very familiar, looking much like the Commandery Princess.

Commandery Princess?

Chen Jie looked in confusion at the person before him and then realized it really was the Commandery Princess.

At this moment, the hairband on the Commandery Princess’s head had come loose, and he saw her holding Chen Jie while desperately trying to swim upward.

A red energy enveloped Zhao Ya.

In his daze, Chen Jie saw a Fire Phoenix spreading its wings to fly high.

Phoenix?

A strange thought crossed Chen Jie’s mind, and meanwhile, the Commandery Princess was pulling Chen Jie, ready to leave.

But just then, she suddenly felt a massive object in the air pressing down directly.

Boom!

With a loud crash, a gigantic Golden Snake plunged into the water, and Zhao Ya was directly suppressed by the water currents.

As the Golden Snake entered the water, it shook its head and then suddenly saw these two humans who had dived in.

It swam over, curiously watching the two humans before it.

Seeing humans who entered this golden pool and didn’t die was indeed rare.

Thinking this, it stared with its big eyes at the two humans before it.

Zhao Ya was swept along by the swaying waters caused by the Golden Snake and, looking at the fainted Chen Jie in her arms, made an effort to swim. Suddenly, she saw a glowing cave entrance not far away.

So Zhao Ya pulled Chen Jie towards it.

Glug glug glug...

She swam desperately, a faint red glow emanating from her body, protecting her from the corrosion of the golden water.

Finally, she reached the cave entrance, but just then, the Golden Snake suddenly stirred the lake water fiercely, causing a massive wave to throw her outward.

She gritted her teeth, enduring and resisting the water pressure.

But the oxygen was getting less and less, until finally, she couldn’t hold on any longer, and with a puff, all the oxygen in Zhao Ya’s mouth escaped.

Is this the end?

As Zhao Ya exhaled the oxygen from her mouth, she watched Chen Jiusi slipping from her embrace, slowly sinking to the bottom.

Sigh~

I still couldn’t save you...

Zhao Ya’s eyelids grew heavier, but just before she passed out, she suddenly saw a large snake head slowly emerging from below.

Golden and radiant.

It was that big Golden Snake.

Was it going to eat her?

As she thought of this, she completely lost consciousness and fainted...

...

Sunlight shone into the warm thatched hut, through the window, falling on Zhao Ya’s face, enveloping her in a warm comfort, a slight tickle.

She couldn’t help but twitch her eyelids.

Then she opened her eyes, and what greeted her was a simple, rustic cabin.

Zhao Ya stared bewildered, glancing around, got up, feeling no discomfort, but her body seemed somewhat weak as she staggered to the door.

The door was poorly made, with gaps visible in the wood.

When she looked outside, Zhao Ya was startled and took a step back.

Because she saw a five- or six-zhang-long Golden Snake coiled outside, and at the head of the great snake, a young girl, looking just about sixteen or seventeen, was leaning against the snake’s head, basking comfortably in the sun.

Zhao Ya immediately recognized that the big Golden Snake was none other than Lord Jin!

Then, who was this little girl?

Zhao Ya didn’t understand her current situation, nor did she know what had happened to Chen Jiusi.

While she was hesitating, unsure whether to step out, suddenly the little girl basking in the sun beside the huge snake looked this way.

And with her clear, bright eyes, as if she could see right through, she said, ”Big sister from outside, you’re awake.”

Hearing this, Zhao Ya was taken aback.

Unexpectedly, the little girl continued, ”Come out and bask in the sun, it’s really comfortable.”

Zhao Ya knew now there was no point in hiding, so she pushed open the door and stepped out, seeing the little girl squinting her eyes as the sun shone warmly from above.

Lord Jin’s yellowish eyes glanced this way, but after a mere glance, it lazily closed its eyes again to enjoy its sunbath.

Only then did Zhao Ya notice the surroundings outside.

Outside was a large, secluded cave space.

The cave’s ceiling was half-open, allowing sunlight to stream in, and there were small, hand-crafted vegetable gardens around, growing various vegetables, with a small wheat field nearby.

On the other side of the wheat field, there were farming tools.

Everything looked very idyllic.

Zhao Ya hadn’t expected the place to be like this and curiously asked the little girl, ”Who are you, and where is this place?”

The little girl replied, ”My name is Linglong, and as for this place, it’s Lord Jin’s home.”

Hearing this, Lord Jin lifted his head, and not far from here was a golden pool, which must be the golden pool.
