Ling Feng immediately became alert: "A bet? Sorry, I never bet!"

Laines chuckled: "Why? Aren't you confident that the people of the Angel World can defeat these Dragon Bone Warriors? And if you win, I can tell you a secret, how about that?"

Ling Feng squinted his eyes and then shook his head, saying: "Forget it. I don't want to know your secret at all, and the result is about to be revealed, so a bet is meaningless!"

"How boring!" Laines looked at Ling Feng and shrugged, "Ling Feng, don't you find living like this to be dull and unstimulating?"

Ling Feng couldn't be bothered to respond to Laines and instead turned his gaze to the battlefield. When he saw everything that was happening inside, his expression changed slightly.

Originally, Ling Feng thought that the angels, possessing the Power of Light, could suppress the Dragon Bone Warriors exuding a deathly aura!

But in reality, it was the opposite. The Dragon Bone Warriors were pressing the angels in battle, and the angels' Power of Light did not have the expected effect on them!

Additionally, the suppression from the Holy Mountain rendered the angels able to exert only less than sixty percent of their strength, while the Dragon Bone Warriors, albeit slightly weaker in strength, had extremely powerful bodies. Attacks on them would only leave a white mark at most!

"At this rate, the angels will undoubtedly be defeated!" Ling Feng couldn't help but frown. If the angels were to retreat, wouldn't Ling Feng be in danger?

"Did you already know that the Dragon Bone Warriors would attack?" Ling Feng turned to look at Laines and asked, "Is that why you've been watching from the sidelines from the very beginning?"

Laines smiled faintly: "That's right, the Dragon Ball carries a trace of Dragon Qi, and the Dragon Bone Warriors exist to protect these Dragon Balls. Do you think they would just watch the Dragon Balls being taken?"

"To get the Dragon Ball, you must first expel the Dragon Qi from it!" Laines continued, "That's why I mentioned before that when you see the Dragon Ball, you should inform me because only the power of our Abyssal Clan can expel the Dragon Qi and safely obtain the Dragon Ball!"

"But why didn't you just say so directly?" Ling Feng frowned.

Laines looked at Ling Feng and smiled: "Ling Feng, you're still young and don't understand many things yet! Do you think if I told them, they would truly believe me? To them, I'm just an ally, maybe even a rival competing for the Dragon Balls."

"Some things can't be forced through one's will. Letting them learn some lessons may make them more accepting of our ideas!" Laines said: "Just watch, once these Dragon Bone Warriors are repelled, their attitude will definitely be much more respectful. This will be more effective than saying hundreds of words!"

"But I see the angels being pressed!" Ling Feng said, somewhat puzzled: "Are you going to intervene?"

Laines shook his head: "Ling Feng, you still underestimate these angels! Although their strength is suppressed, even the weakest among them are at the Divine Sea Realm Peak, and quite a few are experts from the Azure Sky Realm. You have no idea how terrifying Azure Sky Realm experts can be, but you'll soon see for yourself!"

Ling Feng was a little surprised: "Then according to what you said, about the previous bet..."

Laines chuckled: "Yeah, if we had bet earlier, I would have definitely lost. So, how about now? Do you have any regrets at all? You almost got a secret to be wary of!"

Ling Feng let out a breath and shook his head: "No regrets, because I know I have nothing to squander. In your eyes, you have countless things you can gamble with, but for me, I have no capital to bet against you!"

With that, Ling Feng no longer paid attention to Laines and instead watched with a curious gaze to see how the angels would turn the situation around!

"What a bunch of troublesome characters!" Lyle repelled the Dragon Bone Warrior attacking him and shouted deeply: "We don't have time to waste here, everyone, make it quick!"

As soon as the words fell, Lyle suddenly shouted loudly, a golden light emerged behind him, descended on him, and soon his entire body glowed with a golden light, and a huge Angel Sword appeared in his hand!

At this time, another Dragon Bone Warrior charged forward, wielding a massive Bone Blade.

"Die!" Lyle roared, the giant Angel Sword flashed with a golden light, and with an unstoppable momentum, slashed towards the Dragon Bone Warrior.

The Dragon Bone Warrior, with its originally hard body, was directly cleaved in two by Lyle with one strike, struggled for a moment, then collapsed with a crash, turning into a pile of dry bones!

Lyle's attack seemed to sound the horn of assault! The other angels erupted as if they'd taken a stimulant, and the angels, who had been suppressed, pressed doggedly forward, forcing the Dragon Bone Warriors to retreat.

After leaving behind a dozen or so corpses, the Dragon Bone Warriors retreated as if they had appeared, like the receding tide.

"Phew! That was exhausting!" Having slain several Dragon Bone Warriors, Lyle panted heavily, sweat dripping from his golden hair.

The angel who had been injured was lying in front of Camille, surrounded by deathly aura. If not for his formidable strength, he would have long been dead.

"Hang in there, it'll be alright soon!" Camille said softly, then waved her hand, letting out a milky white glow that flew from her to the body of the injured angel.

Sizzle, as the milky white glow fell upon him, the angel's body emitted a sound. He clenched his teeth tightly, and strands of black gas emerged from his body, dissipating into the air, soon bringing a rosy tint back to his face.

After about ten minutes, the angel who had been eroded by the deathly aura finally recovered.

"You're still very weak; don't push yourself, just rest!" Camille said.

"Thank you, Lord Camille, I'm deeply ashamed!" The angel showed a guilt-ridden expression on his face; he had been ambushed and ended up being a burden rather than helping everyone.

Camille shook her head: "Entering the Valley of Dragon Tomb, I, Camille, will not easily give up on any companion!"

After saying so, Camille came before Laines, staring directly at him.

Ling Feng's heart skipped a beat; was Camille going to hold Laines accountable?

But to Ling Feng's surprise, Camille actually bowed deeply to Laines: "Laines, we doubted you before, and here I represent us to apologize. In the future, we will earnestly heed your advice and will not allow today's events to happen again!"
