Chapter 966: Chapter 963: Demon Dragon Ridge!
“You bastard, what did you do to ?”
Xin Qingxue glared at Li Chen with a face full of dismay and resentnt.
Li Chen didn’t respond, just pointed to the scratches on his neck and chest, and the bite marks on his shoulder.
Xin Qingxue blinked her big eyes and tentatively asked, “Did I do all of this?”
Li Chen curled his lips and said, “Yeah, you little flirt!”
Xin Qingxue felt a bit wronged, having suffered a “big loss” and being called a flirt by Li Chen.
She sniffed, wanting to cry, but no tears ca out, so after a couple of dry sobs and feeling a bit foolish, she had to give up.
“Squeak, squeak!”
The Lightning Weasel, which had been keeping watch outside, bared its teeth at Li Chen upon hearing its master’s dry sobs.
However, when Li Chen gave it a glare, it turned back into a docile cat, lying on the ground, not daring to move.
“Put on so clothes!”
Li Chen took out a set of won’s clothing from his storage space and handed it to Xin Qingxue.
Xin Qingxue took the clothes and was about to put them on when she suddenly inhaled sharply.
Li Chen asked with concern, “What’s the matter?”
Xin Qingxue replied, “It hurts!”
Li Chen asked, “Where does it hurt?”
Xin Qingxue didn’t answer but instead gave Li Chen a resentful look, leaving it for him to figure out.
Just then, she noticed a puddle of sothing as red as a rose and was taken aback.
Why am I still bleeding?
But there were no wounds on her body!
Li Chen seed to have figured out what Xin Qingxue was thinking and pulled her tightly into his arms.
Initially, Xin Qingxue was sowhat unwilling.
However, when she lay in Li Chen’s arms, finding it comfortable and secure, she stopped struggling.
“Qingxue, I’m sorry for hurting you!”
Hearing Li Chen’s heartfelt apology, Xin Qingxue’s anger imdiately subsided.
She nestled closely on Li Chen’s chest, examining the neat row of bite marks there.
“Anyway, I was going to be yours sooner or later. I just didn’t expect my first ti would be in such a…”
Xin Qingxue spoke halfway but didn’t continue. Instead, she looked around at the desolate wilderness with a resentful gaze.
Li Chen didn’t respond.
Moreover, he had no way to respond to those words.
After talking to herself, Xin Qingxue suddenly thought of sothing and blinked her big eyes, asking Li Chen, “Could I get pregnant this ti?”
Li Chen had previously explained to her the “how to get pregnant” course, and the current scenario matched perfectly.
“Theoretically possible, but with just this one ti, the chances are a bit low!”
Li Chen thought for a mont and said seriously.
The Lightning Weasel lay on the grass not far away, watching Li Chen and Xin Qingxue flaunt their affection and feeling indignant.
It would occasionally scratch the ground with its sharp claws to show its protest.
However, neither Li Chen nor Xin Qingxue paid any attention to it, leaving the Lightning Weasel quite depressed, starting to draw circles on the ground.
…
After this intimate encounter, Li Chen and Xin Qingxue’s relationship beca much closer.
Moreover, Xin Qingxue beca increasingly dependent on Li Chen, acting like a docile child.
They traversed the Dragon Plateau, encountering the occasional blind Demon Beast blocking their way.
Most were taken care of by the Lightning Weasel.
If the Lightning Weasel couldn’t handle it, Li Chen would step in and slay it with a single sword strike.
Thus, they traveled all the way to the heart of the Dragon Plateau without any major mishaps.
“This is Demon Dragon Ridge. I heard from my father that a Demon Dragon once resided here, very powerful. I wonder if it’s still here?”
Xin Qingxue pointed to the ahead serpentine mountain peak, resembling a giant dragon, reminding in a low voice.
“Squeak, squeak!”
The Lightning Weasel also beca increasingly uneasy, making “squeak” sounds to show that it agreed with its master.
Li Chen released his awareness to investigate, and his expression turned slightly solemn.
“It’s a Python Dragon, a fifth-level late stage Demon Beast, but it’s currently asleep. We’ll pass through directly and try not to disturb it!”
Hearing Li Chen’s words, Xin Qingxue was astonished.
She and Li Chen had roughly the sa level of cultivation. Yet, as a Heavenly Pride Girl, she couldn’t even sense the Demon Dragon’s exact location, while Li Chen seed to see it directly.
Comparing the two, it’s truly disheartening!
Xin Qingxue curled her lips and asked, “What if we do disturb the Demon Dragon?”
“Well, that depends on whether it knows what’s good for it. If it doesn’t, then we’ll just have to kill it!”
Li Chen spoke very casually, as if killing a Demon Dragon whose combat power could rival a Nascent Soul Great Power was as easy as slaughtering a chicken or a dog.
As they were about to cross Demon Dragon Ridge, Xin Qingxue’s worries turned out to be justified.
“Roar!”
The Demon Dragon awoke with a soul-stirring roar, causing the entire mountain forest to tremble.
The surrounding Demon Beasts scattered like frightened birds.
The previously silent wilderness suddenly boiled over like bubbling water.
Soon, the entire mountain of Demon Dragon Ridge began to shake violently. The rocks rolled down, the ground cracked, revealing patches of uneven scale armor.
It turned out this wasn’t a mountain at all, but the body of the Demon Dragon.
Stretching hundreds of miles, a true Divine Dragon with its head unseen.
“Hiss!”
Seeing such a terrifying scene, Xin Qingxue couldn’t help but break out in a cold sweat.
She now finally understood why she couldn’t sense the Demon Dragon’s presence.
It turned out the entire Demon Dragon Ridge was the Demon Dragon’s body. If she could sense that, it would be strange indeed!
Li Chen remained calm, his expression unchanging.
He had already seen that Demon Dragon Ridge was the Demon Dragon’s body.
What surprised him was that this Demon Dragon, which had been asleep for decades or even a hundred years, woke up at this critical mont.
If a fight were to break out, it would inevitably be a fierce battle!
With Qingzhou, Youzhou’s two Yu Emperor’s Treasure Cauldrons, and the Nine Heavens Star Technique as his trump card, Li Chen wasn’t too afraid of the Demon Dragon.
However, Li Chen was a bit worried that once the fight started, he might not be able to look after Xin Qingxue.
Previously at the Dragon Water shore, she was ambushed by the Golden Snake Playboy, which made Li Chen feel sowhat guilty.
Now that they had developed a closer relationship, Li Chen naturally didn’t want her to suffer any more harm.
Moreover, besides this Demon Dragon, who knows how many powerful Demon Beasts or prowling experts this place harbors?
These are not benevolent beings, akin to venomous snakes lurking in the dark, ready to deliver a deadly strike anyti, anywhere.
Therefore, if they could avoid fighting the Demon Dragon, they should try not to engage it.
If negotiations fail, then fighting would be inevitable!
