Li Chen tilted his head and carefully scrutinized the Taotie.
The Taotie was unnerved by Li Chen’s gaze but dared not protest, fearing he might change his mind and slaughter it with a sword.
After a long pause, Li Chen leisurely spoke:
"It seems like your injuries aren’t light!"
Hearing Li Chen’s remark, the Taotie had an urge to bite him to death.
Isn’t that obvious? Beaten to a pulp, anyone with eyes can see I’m seriously injured, do you need to point that out?
Li Chen took out so pills for stopping bleeding and healing injuries and handed them over.
The Taotie, not being polite, devoured them eagerly.
These pills were all crafted by Li Chen himself, and each one was perfect.
Thus, their effect on stopping bleeding and healing was imdiate.
In no ti, the previously grievously injured, dying Taotie beca lively again.
Of course, this was rely a temporary healing of its flesh wounds.
As for internal injuries, recovery would require a period of nurturing.
Li Chen clapped his hands and asked, "How do you feel?"
The Taotie looked up at Li Chen and replied, "Much better!"
Li Chen stood with his hands behind his back and smiled slightly.
"Good, much better. Now, shouldn’t you fulfill your promise?"
Hearing Li Chen’s words, the Taotie was startled.
After a long pause, it knelt on its front legs and bowed solemnly to Li Chen.
"Heaven and earth as witness, I, Taotie, vow to be Li Chen’s mount and never betray. If I harbor a second thought, may I be struck by the Five Thunders and perish entirely!"
"Rumble!"
Just after making the solemn vow, thunder rumbled in the distant sky.
Li Chen gazed ahead, a playful smile at the corner of his mouth, and said, "It seems your vow wasn’t sincere!"
Hearing Li Chen’s words, the Taotie beca anxious and hastily explained, "This is the Great Wilderness Thunder Swamp; lightning and thunder are common. That was just a coincidence. If you don’t believe , I can swear again!"
Seeing the Taotie’s overreaction, Li Chen stepped forward and patted its head.
"No need to be so agitated, just joking!"
Hearing Li Chen say it was a joke, the Taotie was almost angered to the point of spitting blood.
Sister, is this sothing to joke about?
However, this small joke inexplicably brought them closer together.
At least, there was less of a barrier than before!
Then, Li Chen asked the Taotie about the situation in the Great Wilderness Thunder Swamp.
He wanted to ask about the Hall Master of Greedy Wolf Hall, the Wolf God, Emperor Yu, and the Heavenly chanism Stone they were competing for.
However, the Taotie knew nothing about it.
Li Chen asked what it knew.
The Taotie’s answer, besides so basic information about the Great Wilderness Thunder Swamp, mostly involved the deliciousness of various demon beast ats.
Hearing this, Li Chen felt an urge to pin it down and give it a beating.
But then he thought, the Taotie was born a foodie. It’s just its nature, so it can’t be blad.
Just then, from where the thunder bood earlier, ca strange sounds.
Upon hearing those sounds, the Taotie’s expression changed dramatically.
"Not good, those demons are causing trouble again!"
Li Chen raised an eyebrow and asked, "Are you talking about the Outer Realm Demons?"
The Taotie nodded and replied, "Yes, there seems to be a Space Transmission Formation in this Great Wilderness Thunder Swamp, which is why these Outer Realm Demons appear endlessly."
"Moreover, I found their operations are becoming more frequent, as if they’re planning sothing big!"
Hearing the Taotie’s words, Li Chen imdiately fell into deep thought.
This brought to mind the Underworld he and Shen ngxi had experienced earlier.
It seed like that was also a nest of Outer Realm Demons.
Looks like Greedy Wolf Star isn’t peaceful either!
If Greedy Wolf Star is compared to Earth, then these Outer Realm Demons are akin to the Maya Ancient Tribe.
The Maya Ancient Tribe intended to conquer Earth.
These Outer Realm Demons might also be planning to conquer Greedy Wolf Star.
Thinking of this, Li Chen didn’t hesitate and clapped his hands, saying, "Let’s go, take a look!"
Hearing Li Chen’s words, the Taotie looked sowhat shocked.
"Those Outer Realm Demons are all powerful. Most importantly, they’re tough-skinned and not tasty. What’s there to see?"
Li Chen glanced at the Taotie and asked seriously, "Have you eaten Outer Realm Demons?"
The Taotie nodded and replied, "I have. Their at is harder than teors, unbearably disgusting. I only ate once, didn’t finish, and spat it out!"
If sothing could make the indiscriminate-eating Taotie feel disgusting, it must be incredibly foul.
Nevertheless, this piqued Li Chen’s curiosity even more.
He imdiately leaped onto the Taotie’s back and gave it a strong pat.
"Go, stop dawdling, hurry up!"
Seeing its protest was useless, the Taotie had no choice but to carry Li Chen towards the gathering spot of the Outer Realm Demons.
With one step, the Taotie could cover a hundred miles; after twenty or thirty steps in the void, it instantly traveled nearly three thousand miles.
Li Chen had to push his movent technique to the limit to match the Taotie’s speed.
And even then, it was just a short burst, not sustainable.
In a crater created by the earlier thunder strike, hordes of beetle-like monsters gathered.
They varied in size, so as big as small supercars, others comparable to heavy armored vehicles or even fighter jets.
Demon beasts from miles around panicked at the sight of the Outer Realm Demons and fled.
Even the smallest among these Outer Realm Demons could rival Golden Core Cultivators, the dium-sized ones could battle Nascent Souls, and the largest ones might even trouble a Divinity Transformation True Monarch.
Most troubling of all, they seed to be social creatures, forming a massive swarm.
Seeing this dense mass of Outer Realm Demons, the Taotie shivered, recalling a terrifying mory.
"Just looking at them makes nauseous. What’s there to see? Let’s just leave!"
Li Chen agreed there was nothing worth seeing and planned to leave.
Otherwise, being discovered by these Outer Realm Demons might lead to a troubleso situation.
But just as they were about to leave, a commotion arose below.
It seed a group of Human Clan Cultivators had been discovered by the Outer Realm Demons and were fighting desperately.
Li Chen squinted and spotted an old acquaintance among them.
The Goddess of Sword God Mountain, Shen ngxi!
"Let’s go, let’s go, don’t ddle!"
The Taotie, seeing Li Chen’s intention, hurriedly urged him.
Li Chen’s eyes locked onto Shen ngxi, his gaze firm.
Then, with a commanding tone that allowed no refusal, he said, "Go, let’s take a look!"
