In the past, Jiang Yuebai asked me to stay in Tianyun Sect to guard the formation after he set it up.

I refused.

Jiang Yuebai sighed and said, "Xiao Bai, I can't trust anyone else with this formation today except for you. Don't worry, I won't fight to the death with him. As long as Jiang Yuan is lured here when the blood moon is in the sky, the ghost clan will be sealed."

I looked at him with confusion. "Then why don't we just capture him ourselves?"

Jiang Yuebai slapped my forehead abruptly. "Then you would have to open the formation."

I protested, "Why should I shed so much blood? And does this formation actually work? Don't drain me dry!"

Jiang Yuebai blushed suddenly. "You're a girl, don't say such fierce words, okay? Besides, you're so big, what's the big deal with shedding some blood?"

I snorted and tore off a scale from my neck, throwing it into his arms.

"Take it, it can help you block a blow at a critical moment."

Jiang Yuebai hurriedly caught it, then came over and pressed my wound.

"Can't you be more cautious? Can you just tear off this scale like that? Look at how you've wounded yourself!"

Of course I couldn't tear it off casually. My whole body was covered in these scales, which had just grown from my transformation into a dragon. They could save my life in a critical moment.

But I didn't tell Jiang Yuebai that, I just awkwardly pulled away his hand. He was too close, so close that it felt like he was hugging me.

"Alright, it's just a small wound, it will be fine soon. Remember, don't fight him head-on. You've read so many books, use your brain more."

Jiang Yuebai waved to me. "Alright, I'm leaving. Wait for my good news."

I cut open my palm and let the blood flow into the formation, quietly waiting for the blood moon to appear.

When the formation was fully activated, I weakly collapsed on the side and couldn't move at all.

This brat Jiang Yuebai nearly left me here.

With the blood moon in the sky, Jiang Yuebai and Jiang Yuan fought fiercely above the formation.

Jiang Yuan fought fiercely, completely unaware that a trap had been prepared directly beneath him.

The light from the blood moon shone into the formation, and the formation emitted a shining red light. In an instant, the light transformed into chains and flew towards Jiang Yuan.

Jiang Yuan finally realized that something was wrong and tried to escape.

But Jiang Yuebai couldn't let him get away at this moment. A series of sword blades sealed off all his retreat routes.

Jiang Yuan's eyes turned blood red as he pounced straight towards Jiang Yuebai:

"Kid, I'll drag you down with me even if I die!"

The moment the chains bound Jiang Yuan, he also grabbed Jiang Yuebai's clothes, and the two fell straight into the formation from the sky.

"Jiang Yuebai..."

I struggled to reach out, but I had no strength left.

Jiang Yuan was tightly bound within the formation, while Jiang Yuebai put away his long sword and sat down, chanting a spell.

After finishing, he took a deep breath. "Xiao Bai, I'm sorry, I lied to you again."

I widened my eyes in an instant, and the bad premonition in my heart came true at this moment.

However, Jiang Yuebai smiled freely. "I am finally going to fulfill my mission, but it's a pity I can't make the candy pear for you as promised."

Tears streamed down my face as I desperately reached out my hand to Jiang Yuebai, but this time he didn't come over.

His body gradually turned into specks of starlight and merged into the formation.

"Xiao Bai, I entrust Tianyun Sect to you, and also..."

Jiang Yuebai's lips moved, but no sound came out. His whole person completely dissipated into the formation.

"Jiang Yuebai!!!"

I roared with all my remaining strength, and then, before falling into darkness, I saw the countless chains of light formed by the formation drag all the members of the ghost clan underground.

When I woke up later, there was nothing on the ground except for my lonely scale.

Later, I gave the scale to the new Sect Master and stayed near the formation like this.
