Chapter 821: Chapter 277: “Myriad Phenona Scripture
Qing Chi was suddenly touched at his most painful spot, his face reddened with anger, and he abruptly turned his head to look at the person who spoke.
He saw this person wearing a bamboo hat, with a burly fra, clad in gray-silver scale armor, holding a long-handled Fish Spear.
Qing Chi, being petite, looked up and could see the face of the person under the hat.
At the first glance, Qing Chi was slightly startled, the face under the hat was not human, but a carp face.
Although it was a carp, there was a pair of silver-white dragon horns on its forehead.
It seed to be a Carp Demon bearing Dragon Blood.
Seeing Qing Chi’s face full of anger, this Carp Demon was a bit flustered, waved his hands and said, “Did I… did I guess wrong?”
Qing Chi gritted his teeth imdiately, did not admit it, but questioned even more angrily, “Who are you?”
The gray-scaled Carp Demon imdiately replied, “I, I am Li Xiangshang. It’s… it’s my Dragon Lord who sent here.”
Qing Chi was taken aback.
The ruling lord in the Underworld is called the Overlord, the master of a country is called the Monarch, and the Dragon Lord is the master of the Water Elent, extrely powerful, not sothing a regular cultivator can hold.
Qing Chi restrained his anger, “Which Dragon Lord is your master?”
Li Xiangshang revealed a sincere look of reverence, “My lord is known as the White-Haired Dragon Lord, overseeing…”
Qing Chi impatiently interrupted him, “I know, overseeing half of the Cang River, right.”
Li Xiangshang let out an “Ah,” although interrupted, he was not angry, scratched the back of his head, “You know, that’s great.”
Though he is a Golden Core Cultivator, facing Qing Chi who is at the Foundation Establishnt Stage, he showed no airs, instead appearing clearly inexperienced and tense.
Qing Chi’s anger diminished significantly, sizing up Li Xiangshang, a speculation rose in his heart, bringing so joy, he asked, “Your Dragon Lord previously sent Jinyangzi here, and now sent you. Is your current mission related to controlling the Golden Swallow Fork again?”
Qing Chi cared deeply about Jiao Ma, and collected a lot of information on Yang Enhancent Institute.
Recently, Yang Enhancent Institute set up the Spirit Contract Treasure Refining Array, faced two assassinations in succession, resulting in the death of two important male concubines, incidents that were deliberately leaked by internal traitors, creating quite a stir.
Qing Chi was well aware of these situations, and knew that the most likely one to control the Golden Swallow Fork was Jinyangzi. But the latter was assassinated by a traitor before.
Jinyangzi ca from the Seven Feathers Alliance but was arranged by the White-Haired Dragon Lord to arrive at White Paper Immortal City.
Seeing Li Xiangshang entering the city now, Qing Chi naturally speculated that this person was also under orders to compete for becoming the new master of Golden Swallow Fork.
This made Qing Chi sincerely happy.
She was quite worried that her beloved Jiao Ma, due to cultivation technique and other reasons, would rise to prominence and beco the new master of Golden Swallow Fork, thus solidifying the role of a male concubine.
If Li Xiangshang could control the Golden Swallow Fork, it would cut off Jiao Ma’s potential path to advancent, effectively aiding Qing Chi.
But Li Xiangshang shook his head, “I am a carp transforming into a flood dragon, cultivating the ‘Rising Dragon Transformation’ bestowed by my master. Despite being male, I belong to the water elent, not aligning with the nature of Golden Swallow Fork.”
“But little girl, you guessed half right.”
“My purpose here is to bring a treasure and select soone to assist them in controlling the Golden Swallow Fork.”
“Little girl, whether your heart’s desire wants the Golden Swallow Fork or not, this is a great opportunity, I can help you.”
Qing Chi’s eyebrows raised sharply, sleeves rolled up, “What a shaless demon, how dare you!!!”
Li Xiangshang was startled, quickly retreated several steps, “Little girl, don’t fight, don’t fight. It’s not allowed to use force within this Immortal City.”
“Just bullying you, an outsider!” Qing Chi sneered, fist ignited, directly swinging it forward.
Her fist struck Li Xiangshang’s chest, making a muffled sound.
The green flas scorched the silver-gray scale armor but soon extinguished.
Li Xiangshang’s aura erupted throughout his body, mana flowed within, unhard, not a single mark.
Qing Chi’s eyes slightly narrowed.
She was surprised by Li Xiangshang’s combat power.
If it were a typical Golden Core Cultivator, they couldn’t achieve such calmness.
More crucially, she discovered Li Xiangshang functioning his cultivation technique within the Immortal City without any suppression from the Immortal City Great Array. What did this indicate?
This indicated that before Li Xiangshang arrived at Yang Enhancent Institute, he must have t the high-level mbers of the Immortal City, gained their approval, and was recognized as an ally of White Paper Immortal City!
Qing Chi speculated, “Not good. The White Paper City Lord probably reached an agreent with the White-Haired Dragon Lord, receiving aid from the Dragon Lord.”
Although Qing Chi had a fiery personality, knowing it was unfeasible, she imdiately stopped.
“I solemnly warn you, stay away from my Jiao Ma. As for the Golden Swallow Fork, I don’t want him to take it. He is mine! I want to take him out of Yang Enhancent Institute.”
Li Xiangshang let out a sound, scratched his smooth head, “Is that so.”
He suddenly understood, then waved his hand, apologetically saying, “I made a mistake.”
“Then I promise you, I won’t help your man.”
“But if he independently obtains the Golden Swallow Fork, it won’t be related to .”
Qing Chi squinted her eyes, carefully observed Li Xiangshang, seeing his sincere attitude towards admitting faults, without a hint of arrogance, “Hmph, you better keep your word.”
Li Xiangshang nodded urgently, “Rest assured, rest assured, I swear.”
After speaking, he truly made a vow.
This made Qing Chi feel bewildered, perceiving that Li Xiangshang in front of her had a pure mind, like a cultivator who rarely interacted with outsiders.
Such people are actually quite nurous.
Especially those from big families or super sects, the offspring of high-level elders, due to their elders’ protection, never lack cultivation resources from a young age. Solely focused on cultivation, rarely socializing, only when possessing self-defense abilities, they are released for training.
