Chapter 2406: Exposed
“By the way, heroine, since I'm helping you this time, can you answer one of my questions?” Zu An suddenly asked while they were on their way to the Four Way Palace.
The Mermaid Queen coldly replied, “You are my captive right now. You should know how a captive should act.”
Zu An responded with an ‘oh’. He was feeling a bit frustrated now. He wanted to get some intelligence, and yet this current situation didn’t seem all that convenient an opportunity to do so. Was there any meaning left in continuing to play this character?
Just then, the Mermaid Queen continued, “Tell me your question first. Whether or not I’ll reply depends on my mood.”
She didn’t know why she said that either. In the end, she figured it could be because she was curious what this cowardly, yet deluded little soldier would ask at a time like this.
Zu An then chose his words carefully. “I have a friend who contracted a weird illness and needs to be treated with the Aurora Poison Dragon’s scales. I wonder if the heroine knows where I could find the Aurora Poison Dragon?”
The Mermaid Queen gave him a look, her expression seemingly saying, Is that friend actually you?
Forget it, I’m not a cruel person and won’t expose your clumsy lie.
“The Aurora Poison Dragon is a highly toxic creature. I have never heard of its scales being able to treat anyone,” the Mermaid Queen said coldly.
