Just then, the giant dragon Mark asked Zhao Rong, "Since you're a human, you should be afraid of us dragons succeeding in our cultivation. You should be terrified that we'll fly out of the Dragon Cave and annihilate your kind, right? Yet, as a human, why would you want to help our Dragon Clan succeed and fly out to destroy your own people?"
Upon hearing this, Zhao Rong was completely stumped.
This is it, I'm done for. As a human, there's no way I can answer this question.
Just as Zhao Rong felt his lies were about to be exposed and he would be eaten by the giant dragon Mark, Mark suddenly spoke up for him. "Could it be that you're not human?"
Hearing this, Zhao Rong thought to himself, I was just wondering how to trick you, and you've gone and told me exactly what to say. I'll just play along, then.
So, Zhao Rong spoke to the giant dragon Mark with a grave and earnest expression. "The truth is, I've been reluctant to tell you... I'm a turtle spirit."
