Li Chen stood with his hands behind his back, floating above the clouds. His black hair and dark eyes, his white robes fluttering, making him look like a relegated immortal reborn. Where his gaze swept, no one dared to et his eyes.
The crowd all bowed their heads and lowered themselves, many had already knelt on the ground, calling him Immortal.
Li Chen looked around and asked in a stern voice, "Seven days from now, I wish to join you in hunting at Changbai Mountain to slay the remaining four dragons. May I know if you are willing to accompany ?"
"We wish to go, willing to be the dogs under the Immortal Master’s command!"
As soon as Li Chen’s words lingered in the air, soone echoed loudly.
Huaxia people have a blind tendency to follow the crowd, and the Martial Arts World is no exception.
Once soone started, others quickly followed.
The Star Pavilion side was even more excited, shouting loudly towards the sky.
"Dragon Slayer, Dragon Slayer, Dragon Slayer!"
"Dragon Slayer, Dragon Slayer, Dragon Slayer!"
...
Seeing the effect he desired achieved, a sly smile appeared on Li Chen’s lips.
He wasn’t relying on these people to help him much, just letting them help to build montum, curtail arrogance at Heavenly Pool, and weaken its foundations to make those who yielded to the Demon Dragons anxious and scatter in advance. This would save him unnecessary trouble when dealing with the remaining four Demon Dragons.
"Hey, how about these Demon Dragons, really planning to cook them?"
Moo Xi boldly stepped forward to strike up a conversation as Li Chen descended.
However, given Li Chen’s current status, addressing him by na was clearly inappropriate. After all, her master had beco his disciple, making her sohow his grand-disciple.
But letting her follow the generational hierarchy and directly call Li Chen as ’Grandmaster’ was sothing Moo Xi was clearly unwilling to do from the depths of her heart; therefore, she could only use "hey" as a universal address.
"Of course cook them, otherwise why have you carry the pot?"
Li Chen finished speaking and started issuing orders.
"Qin Feng, take people to West Lake and haul out the Demon Dragon!"
"Chen Buyi, you go instruct the kitchen to prepare hot pot ingredients, chili, refined salt, and the like, and cook in the street. Every one of my Star Pavilion Disciples gets a share!"
...
Qin Feng and Chen Buyi exchanged a glance. They both saw the astonishnt in each other’s eyes.
Cooking Dragon in the street—it takes an insane person to do such insane things. Note that they both could hardly even imagine it.
However, they dared not defy Li Chen’s orders; in fact, they were inexplicably sowhat excited.
Actually, not just them, which Star Pavilion disciple isn’t excited?
Cooking dragon at hot pot on the street, for most people, is sothing they’d never dare dream of.
Let alone eating the at, even if they could scoop a sip of the soup, it would an great fortune and good luck of epic proportions.
From other sects and influences, regardless of being Divine-level Masters or ordinary disciples, everyone drooled with envy. This is legendary dragon at, a super nourishing dish!
If they could take just one bite, even if told to die imdiately, they would do so willingly.
It’s the era of network information, and the news of Li Chen strongly killing Heavenly Pool Demon Dragon and planning to cook it in the street quickly spread to every corner of the world.
Yan Mountain Li Family:
Li Jinliang lay upon his bed, seriously wounded, with a pallid complexion, his breath like wisps, like an elderly man at dusk seemingly ready to depart this life at any mont.
Li Jinliang looked towards Li Lingtian attending him and said with difficulty, "Lingtian, soday, retrieve for the launch button of the ’Peace’!"
At these words, Li Lingtian was astonished.
The ’Peace’ was the empire’s newly developed super-nuclear weapon, of utmost national significance, not to be lightly moved.
Now, his grandfather wanted him to retrieve the launch button. What this implied, given Li Lingtian’s intelligence, how could he not guess?
"Grandpa, this is absolutely not allowed!"
"Lingtian, I don’t have much ti, nearing the end of my life. Let this old man bear this everlasting infamy. Otherwise, should those five beasts grow larger, not only would our Huaxia, but the entire Earth be caught in endless misery!"
Li Jinliang’s eyes, though turbid, flashed with a complex brilliance.
Super-nuclear weapon, a nation’s heavy treasure. Once deployed, it could level the vastness of Changbai Mountain, resulting in millions of casualties. Even the President of the United States wouldn’t dare take on such eternal bla.
But if this kind of super-massive weapon is not used, who could stop the Demon Dragons from expanding?
Unexpectedly, Li Lingtian thought of sothing and said anxiously, "Grandpa, don’t think like that. Isn’t Li Chen here yet? When he returns, he will surely have a solution!"
The ntion of "Li Chen" brought a gleam of reassurance to Li Jinliang’s dim and turbid eyes.
Lingtian, Lingyun did not disappoint him, and Li Chen, this great-grandson, is even more his pride, their Li Family’s pride.
At this mont, a clamor suddenly ca from outside.
Soon, Sister Vesper, Li Wan’er, Azure Dragon hurriedly rushed in.
Li Lingtian saw them all coming in, greatly alard, asked urgently, "What happened, did the Demon Dragon attack Yan Mountain?"
"Father, it’s not that; he returned, he returned!"
Li Wan’er excitedly stamred, barely able to form words.
Li Lingtian, bewildered, asked, "Who returned?"
Seeing Li Wan’er so excited she couldn’t speak, he turned his gaze towards Sister Vesper.
Usually calm and collected, Sister Vesper was extrely excited this ti.
She didn’t speak, just handed over the tablet in her hand.
"General, take a look at this!"
Li Lingyun took the tablet and clearly saw the figure of Li Chen standing with his hands behind him, feeling a surge of excitent.
"Grandpa, look, Li Chen has co back!"
When Li Jinliang saw Li Chen’s figure, a hint of delight flashed in his eyes.
"It’s good that he’s back, good that he’s back. By the way, what are they doing?"
"Eating dragon at hot pot!"
At this mont, Li Wan’er had slightly cald down, quickly responded.
Li Lingtian and Li Jinliang, both stunned.
"Dragon at hot pot?"
Li Wan’er nodded like pecking chickpeas, replied, "Yes, dragon at hot pot, one of the five Demon Dragons on Changbai Mountain went to Jiangnan Star Pavilion to provoke, right when Li Chen encountered it, and he slaughtered it in the street!"
As she spoke, she handed over the little video of Li Chen slaying the dragon online.
Watching the video of Li Chen slaying the dragon with two swords, Li Jinliang and Li Lingyun were utterly shocked.
Especially Li Jinliang, having confronted the Demon Dragon directly, he was well aware of its terror.
But now, Li Chen simply used two swords, and seemingly without much effort, easily slaughtered the Demon Dragon.
This, how could he not be shaken?
After a long ti, Li Jinliang suddenly looked up and laughed.
"Haha, our Li Family is fortunate, the nation’s great fortune, the nation’s great fortune!"
Li Wan’er, Sister Vesper were all clamoring to go to Jiangnan to eat dragon at hot pot.
Li Jinliang originally intended to go as well, but his heavy injuries made it impossible; his heart effectively pierced by the Demon Dragon’s claws, enduring till now was already a miracle, and traveling far was out of the question.
He hadn’t yet sat up before coughing heavily.
Li Wan’er hurried to assist him.
"Grandgreatfather, don’t move. Sister Vesper and I will bring you dragon at hot pot, letting you taste it. It’s said to be very nourishing, maybe it’ll heal your wounds!"
Li Jinliang, knowing his own body, nodded repeatedly saying "Good," urging them to hurry, ideally bringing Li Chen as well if possible.
Li Wan’er repeatedly nodded, then gleefully rushed out the door.
Moreover, she kept watching the live stream as she walked, afraid that a blink would make her miss sothing she’d regret for a lifeti.
When she saw the few girls alongside Li Chen from the corner of her eye, she inexplicably felt sowhat lost.
If I weren’t your real sister, would there also be a place for by your side?
