665: Chapter 611 Only the Fortunate Can Understand (5600, second update) 665: Chapter 611 Only the Fortunate Can Understand (5600, second update) The gentle female voice was like that of a kind woman, apologizing to her child’s friends for her child’s adventurous deeds.

This was clearly the voice of the King of the Mountain.

It seemed that Sio was right, in recent times, He had become a mother wanting to nurture a boy.

True Dragons and Fae are indeed convenient creatures.

[It could be me]

So Ian thought, and then, responding to the True Dragon’s inquiry, he spoke in rather curious words, [That depends on whether Your Majesty requires it or not]

[Not necessary]

The gentle female voice carried a hint of amusement, [It was the efforts of the Huai Guang Rescue Team that saved my child Sio, there will be no second opinion on that]

[Regardless, thank you.]

Turning his head, the King of the Mountain looked to the other side—the Dragon Worship Cult, or rather the team of Mountain Transcendents had already arrived.

They had been nearby all along, waiting for Sio’s awakening, and now that the King of the Mountain had personally come, they naturally hurried over in earnest fear, kneeling and bowing to greet the King.

Ian even saw a few familiar figures, apart from Pansha, the heir of Elder Mantle, there were several Mountain Transcendents he had seen before among the mountain folk.

But now wasn’t the time for greetings.

“Your Majesty, we…” Pansha, leading the group, swallowed nervously, then dared to speak, but was cut off halfway through.

[The fault is not yours; it is Fiery Flame Land that harbors designs against us, they scheme in the dark, and we can only respond]

Although the King of the Mountain didn’t openly reprimand them but instead consoled them, He didn’t allow them to stand up either.

Indeed, it had been an ambush, but the Dragon Worship Cult’s response had been far from satisfactory, especially since it wasn’t until the end that Ian and the Huai Guang Rescue Team had rushed into the Subspace Labyrinth and rescued Sio.

They had been blocked by a horde of Phantasms and Magical Beasts, and then had been scattered in every direction by the aftermath of a battle with Fourth Power Level fighters.

Without them, Ian and his companions would have faced even more enemies and slowed down, so it’s not to say they were of no use, but overall…

They were in need of a push.

At that moment, Redemption Light and Yingguang brought out the crystal prism storing Sio’s soul.

“Mom…

Mother…”

Sio had already awakened when the King of the Mountain arrived, just a little afraid of his mother’s scolding and not too eager to show himself—but this time, He couldn’t hide, so Redemption Light and Yingguang brought Him out.

[We’ll talk when we get home]

The King of the Mountain glared intensely at Sio’s soul crystal—it would be taken as a ‘wait till we get home and then I’ll deal with you’ by any ordinary person.

But perhaps it was Ian’s familiarity with dragons, or perhaps his familiarity with people of a more contrarious disposition, he could only hear ‘Let’s go home and get some rest first; don’t push yourself to talk to me now.’

Regrettably, Sio, although a dragon, didn’t understand dragons as Ian did.

He took it in the former sense, so after a whining-like soft roar, He dared not say more.

——Indeed, the issues with one’s original family seem to be the primary cause for 85% of the problems in this world, leaving communication misunderstandings that cannot understand each other to make up the remaining 15%

So Ian thought.

The King of the Mountain took back Sio’s soul crystal using the wind, swallowed it, and then allowed the Dragon Worship Cult’s team to stand up.

[You will return with the Huai Guang Rescue Team and follow their command]

The True Dragon thus ordered, and the Dragon Worship Cult’s team naturally obeyed.

After that, the King of the Mountain did not linger.

He was worried about whether Sio’s soul had been poisoned by Fiery Flame Land and other researchers in the Avak laboratory, so He immediately took flight and left, altogether disregarding the observant gazes of Duke Sorin, Michael, and Chancellor Moze, these three Fourth Power Level powerhouses, treating them as if they were non-existent.

And these three Fourth Power Level powerhouses, except Michael, did not want to stir up trouble and enter into a full debate with the King of the Mountain on why their partner, Fiery Flame Land, would set a trap to abduct Sio.

In theory, it was Sio who first attacked Fiery Flame Land’s stronghold in Duke Sorin’s Domain in the Western Territory…

but why should you, Fiery Flame Land, be making trouble in the Bison Mountain Range too?

For Fourth Power Level beings, don’t expect to reason—the matter couldn’t be clearly stated and could only be resolved by a fistfight.

And since the Heavenly Flood King of Fiery Flame Land had already withdrawn, why should they take up this unwarranted feud?

The turmoil caused by the arrival of the True Dragon quickly subsided.

After the Dragon Worship Cult’s team announced they were under the Huai Guang Rescue Team’s command, they set up camp in an orderly fashion.

Apart from sharing a grateful look, Pansha and others pretended not to know Ian.

Theoretically, all major figures who should know of Ian’s relationship with the Dragon Worship Cult do know, but it’s still better not to expose any flaws openly.

In addition, Pansha observed the attitude of the rescue team and that of the King of the Mountain and assumed that the Huai Guang Rescue Team was a group of reinforcements Ian had summoned.

Though subtly different, it wasn’t incorrect to think this way, Pansha’s ability to observe and infer was indeed impressive.

Moreover, without the Huai Guang Rescue Team, it would have taken Ian a great deal of effort to conceal his identity alone.

Using this ability, Pansha established a tacit understanding with Ian without exchanging words.

When Ian patted Adalbert on the shoulder, uttering his name, and telling him to rejoin the ranks, the researcher with grey hair and golden eyes was blank.

Later, when a recovered Pansha strode forward and gave Adalbert a big hug, then loudly said, ‘Welcome back to the team, brother!’ the grey-haired, golden-eyed former king was completely bewildered.
