The dragon blood stained the river water.
It was like a bloody flower slowly blooming above the currents.
The big black dog seed to sense sothing, grinning as it bared its teeth at the sky.
As if it was showing off, being arrogant, telling those who spied that Lord Dog was unparalleled!
The river water exploded into roaring waves, white crests rolling, colliding and then rippling with trembling waves—a huge dragon corpse, creating ripples in the water as Gouzi dragged it along.
The dragon corpse was massive, exuding a terrifying and oppressive rank pressure. Yet, its head had been twisted off, and the dragon scales had been completely scraped clean.
As if it was not a true dragon being dealt with, but more like a plump carp.
The boss held a cigarette in his mouth, his expression unchanged, as if he sensed Li Che’s scrutiny, but it was no problem.
There was a crackling sound as a match was struck, the flaming paper curling up as it burned.
"Let’s go, make so dragon at soup."
The boss said blandly.
Then, he lightly waved his hand.
And, along with the terrifyingly imposing black dog like a mountain, disappeared between the heavens and the earth.
Nine-layered Yellow Dragon Mysterious Wood Treasure Ship.
Waves constantly erupted on the ship’s hull as it sailed, the Grand Canal seeming to rise and steam with mist, the thick fog rolling and spreading, obscuring everyone’s vision and gaze.
Li Che stood at the railings of the ninth floor of the ship’s pavilion, side by side with Lv Taibai, gazing out at the downpour on the river surface.
The rain fell torrentially, with a roaring sound.
The glint of the chessboard ford by interwoven lines disappeared from Li Che’s eyes.
His heart was slightly shaken.
His gaze flickered slightly; it turned out the titled old Dragon King of the Dragon God Clan had not just failed to arrive, but had already been fed to the dogs.
Thinking back to the journey from Golden Light Prefecture to Dao City, it must have been Gouzi and the boss secretly protecting and eliminating the threats brought by the Dragon God Clan.
Incidentally, the boss got so cooking materials.
For instance, the dragon blood wine that invigorates and strengthens the body, likely brewed from the blood of a true dragon.
His heart relaxed a little, for the titled Dragon King had indeed brought so pressure to Li Che.
A titled Dragon King, in addition to the Corpse God Cult and Yue Huanglong, who might strike treacherously at any mont while acting like a bystander.
In fact, it was quite dangerous. If they attacked this nine-layered Yellow Dragon Mysterious Wood Treasure Ship with reckless force, damaging the ship, the impact would be considerable.
Lv Taibai’s loose robes billowed and fluttered, his silver hair and silver eyebrows swirling in the wind, as murderous intent surged violently.
"Sect Master... that old Dragon King probably won’t be coming."
Li Che exhaled, with eyes that wanted to laugh but couldn’t quite bring himself to.
Lv Taibai looked over, puzzled.
"What makes you say that?"
"Well... a strong one from our Underworld was involved, that titled old Dragon King might have already t his end."
Li Che thought it over and then attributed the boss and the big black dog to being underworld powerhouses.
Explaining with the involvent of a strong underworld figure was apt.
Lv Taibai was startled: "Dead?"
That was a... top-tier old Dragon King!
The Dragon God Clan weren’t weak, and if you were strict about it, they were even stronger than the Dao City’s Divine Sect.
In their heyday, the Dragon God Clan boasted four titled Dragon Kings, each with at least first-class peak combat power.
So even matched top-level peak combat power.
However, that was during their pri. Now, the Dragon God Clan had long declined; the once-glorious four titled Dragon Kings were now reduced to two, and both were extrely elderly.
The two titled Dragon Kings who fell were killed when they failed to beco Dragon Gods, their bodies perishing in divine tribulations, turning to ash.
But the two old Dragon Kings who survived were still quite strong. Though their qi-blood was long exhausted, having lost their peak form due to age.
Yet they still possessed first-class peak strength.
And they just died like that?
"Did the Underworld Yama act?"
Lv Taibai raised an eyebrow and couldn’t help but ask.
Li Che just smiled silently.
You guess.
But Lv Taibai was convinced; it must have been the action of the Underworld Yama.
"The Underworld Yama... must be more than one, right?"
Lv Taibai glanced at Li Che, suddenly asking.
Li Che continued to smile silently, keep guessing.
Lv Taibai looked at Li Che’s expression, unable to be sure, but still trusted his instincts.
To silently and effortlessly take down a titled Dragon King...
The Underworld increasingly... gave him a sense of unfathomable depth.
Lv Taibai knew the Underworld had thods to conceal their presence, but... this was a titled Dragon King, whose qi-blood was yet to fully decay, still counted among the top-tier, qualifying for a Heavenly Gate assault!
Yet he was killed soundlessly, as if by grandmasters like You Liqing, isolated by the Underworld!
The Underworld...
Lv Taibai gave Li Che a deep look, emotions stirring in his heart.
"A Che."
"Hmm?" Li Che was puzzled.
"Is your Underworld... recruiting?"
Lv Taibai chuckled.
"See what I can do?"
Lv Taibai opened his arms, sword qi surging.
Li Che chuckled in amusent.
Yet Lv Taibai suddenly burst into laughter, joining the Underworld... really tempted him, for Li Che was already a mber of the Underworld and also an elder of the Qian Yuan Divine Sect.
The Underworld is probably like the Hunting God Pavilion... open to moonlighting, perhaps?
"About eight hundred miles away, there are evil people from the Corpse God Cult hiding..."
"I might as well go and et them."
"After losing so many experts in Qian Yuan Dao City, the Corpse God Cult still sends strong ones. Truly don’t know how to hurt, but the Corpse God Cult is a group of the dead, so unfeeling is only natural."
