After The Abyss Dragon Woke Up

“To Settle an Account” (1)

… What did he say?

Shi An stood frozen, staring blankly at the human being in front of him.

It took a full ten seconds for him to react finally.

The burning red spread from his fair cheeks and the heat that could burn the entire face was emitted from the delicate veins on his face, hot and vivid, spreading wildly.

In a flash, the images he had deliberately forgotten seemed out of control and came back in a rush.

Shi An’s brain exploded as if he was growing unhinged.

The smile on Mu Heng’s lips widened.

His lips were thin with sharp lip lines, extremely light in color, with a cold color like ice and snow. 𝙛𝙧𝙚𝙚𝙬𝙚𝒃𝒏𝓸𝒗𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝓸𝒎

The man leaned down and pressed the lips that spit out the sinful words to Shi An’s ear.

“I have a feeling that you will like it.”

“…?”

Only then did Shi An wake up from his dream. His face was red as fire and his eyes rounded in fear. He jumped up in fright and stumbled back several steps.

“You… you… I…”

At this moment, Mu Heng’s communicator suddenly rang.

The ear-piercing and sharp ringing were like a sharp knife stabbing into the ambiguous to almost sticky air before him, breaking up the current atmosphere.

Mu Heng knew how to stop after getting something good.

He regrettably stopped, withdrew his gaze, and did not approach anymore.

The name displayed on the communicator made him frown slightly.

Mu Heng picked up the communicator.

The microphone’s sound insulation was excellent. If they were ordinary humans, they couldn’t hear half the words on the other side of the communicator.

But Shi An was not an ordinary human being.

Although he was once almost regarded as one, after absorbing the magic of the dragon molt and the Eye of the Abyss, his eyesight, hearing, and sensitivity to magic perception had been greatly improved, and he was gradually approaching his original self.

Even though his head was now a mess, Shi An still caught a few familiar keywords from that subtle voice.

“… Shi Rui…”

“… Followed his tracks… discovered…”

Shi An blinked, sobering up from his chaotic thoughts, and the heat on his face decreased slightly.

He looked in the direction where the voice came from.

He saw Mu Heng give a simple “hmm” and then cut off the communicator.

He looked at Shi An and said goodbye.

“It’s an affair in the Bureau. I’m afraid they need me at headquarters.”

While Shi An was lost in thought, Mu Heng took a step forward, his fingers lifting the young man’s fair chin, and his thin lips dropped a kiss lightly on his lips. “You know my number.”

Shi An: “???”

Before he could react, the other party let go of him and elegantly retreated.

Watching the other party’s back disappear out of sight, Shi An returned to his senses only as an afterthought.

He slowly blinked his eyes and the conversation just now leaped into his mind again.

His face, which had become less hot, became hot and burning again.

“…”

S-Shameless!

How can humans… how can they be so brazen?

Shi An was so angry that he couldn’t speak.

He angrily scrubbed the corner of his lips.

But no matter how hard he tried, the light, burning touch was like it had been branded on a small piece of skin and could not be dispelled no matter what.

“…”

Shi An began to sulk.

At this time, a tiny gap in the window was pushed open from the outside and Black Smoke drifted in with two other demonic creatures wrapped in it.

As long as Mu Heng was present, they dared not approach and could only hide far outside the house. They waited until they watched Mu Heng’s car drive away before hurrying back.

The Eye has long since learned from Black Smoke of the crisis that Shi An might face.

It rushed over with one single stride, rounding its big dark red eyes and asking anxiously, “M-My lord, your estrus period shouldn’t have flared up, has it?”

Shi An jumped up like a cat whose tail had been stepped on.

“No!”

The other three demonic creatures were startled by his violent reaction.

Black Smoke breathed a sigh of relief. “Great! Great–”

As long as there were no flare-ups, it was good.

Shi An thought for a moment and hesitantly asked in a small voice. “Can you make a drug like the last one again?”

Black Smoke said, “It’s possible…”

Shi An’s eyes lit up.

“But… I’m afraid it’s useless.”

Shi An: “…”

He was silent for two seconds and slowly said, “What?”

“This kind of drug is only effective for the first time. After that, your body will be resistant to the effect.” Black smoke spoke in an increasingly smaller voice. “So, even if I make it again, it’s probably useless.”

Shi An: “…”

His expression became ashen.

At this time, the Eye seemed to notice the blind spot, glaring its eyes wider. “My lord, you’re asking this question, could it be…”

Shi An unhesitatingly said, “No!”

But the Eye did not speak, merely saying in a trance-like manner. “Then you and that human in the room just now…”

Shi An’s voice got louder. “No!”

He stared viciously at the demonic creature in front of him. “I will eat you if you randomly guess again!”

The Eye cried, “Huhuhuhu.”

It wept in its heart.

Not because of being threatened.

Rather… because he could only watch as that despicable and shameless human get his way!

Shi An took a deep breath and forcibly suppressed his anger.

He then settled down and began to think seriously.

… Shi Rui?
