Chapter - 2870

As the potent spiritual energy flowed through its body, King of Dragons experienced a rapid rejuvenation.

Shortly after, its severed body halves fused back together seamlessly.

Nevertheless, it was still weak.

Having survived the ordeal, the King of Dragons heaved a sigh of relief.

It could slowly restore the power that it had lost.

Casting a glare at the ground, King of Dragons let out an icy snort.

Just you wait, Terrachus. If I can make it out of this place alive, I swear I'll take my revenge!

Zeke was practically drooling at the sight of the spirit pills in King of Dragons' hands.

There are a lot of spirit pills. How many divine weapons can I create using those pills? Should I get all those pills for myself when the King of Dragons' body is still weak?

Suddenly, King of Dragons spoke up. "Zeke, I am gravely wounded, and in order to expedite my recovery, I must temporarily enter your body. By doing so, I can regain my strength more swiftly. Once I am fully healed, I will be able to provide you with greater protection."

Zeke flashed a grin. "You're welcome, of course. Before that, don't you need to pay rent?"

Rent?

King of Dragons was confused. "What rent?"

"You will be eating and living in my body. Don't you need to pay rent?" Zeke replied.

"I..." King of Dragons nearly coughed out blood in exasperation. "Why do I need to pay rent?"

Zeke explained, "When you live inside my body, you'll use up my energy and power. Won't you give me anything in return?"

King of Dragons finally grasped the meaning behind his words. "Ah, I see now. Fear not, once I have restored my strength, I shall return the energy and power I borrowed from you. In truth, utilizing your energy and power is of little significance to me."

Zeke told it, "Before you move in, you must pay the rent. If you recover and refuse to repay me, I won't stand a chance against you."

King of Dragons retorted, "How dare you underestimate us? We, as dragons, possess unique qualities that set us apart. Our commitment to keeping our promises is unwavering. However, since you doubt my integrity, I am willing to pay the rent in advance."

It tossed a spirit pill to Zeke. "One spirit pill in exchange for your energy. That should be more than enough."

After accepting the spirit pill, Zeke shook his head. "No, this is too little. It's just enough to cover the cost."

King of Dragons grew slightly angry. "Zeke, don't push your luck. One spirit pill isn't sufficient for you? How many do you require?"

"All your pills," came Zeke's answer.

"All? Are you out of your mind? I only need to reside within your body for approximately ten days. It won't deplete a significant amount of your energy and power," King of Dragons retorted.

Nevertheless, Zeke shrugged nonchalantly. "Well, that's the price to pay. The value lies in rarity. My body is the only suitable place for you to reside in."

Suddenly, Quinlan burst out laughing. "King of Dragons, if you don't mind, you can reside in my body. Of course, I won't require all your spirit pills. I'll only need half of what you have."

"You?" King of Dragons shot Quinlan a look and sneered, “Are you up to no good?"

Quinlan shook his head hastily. "Of course not. I wouldn't dare to offend you."

Naturally, the King of Dragons wouldn't choose to enter Quinlan's body.

Quinlan's strength was inconsequential to King of Dragons when it was in its prime.

However, the circumstances had changed. King of Dragons was severely wounded, and if it chose to reside in Quinlan's body, Quinlan could potentially trap and annihilate its soul.

In the past, King of Dragons had treated Quinlan as its toilet paper in a literal sense, so Quinlan wouldn't pass up the opportunity for revenge.

Zeke was indeed different. King of Dragons could still exert control over Zeke as the man wasn't that powerful. Having previously resided in Zeke's body, it was familiar with and could easily make itself comfortable within it.

Taking a deep breath, King of Dragons said, "Zeke, why don't I give you two spirit pills-"

Again, Zeke shook his head. "No. I want all the spirit pills you have in your possession."
