Chapter 985: Chapter 982: Sword Emperor Ridge!
“Robbery?”
Hearing the word he often had on his lips, but now spoken by soone else, and directed at him, the Golden Toad King was montarily bewildered.
“Yes, robbery. If you want to live, hand over all your valuables!”
Li Chen said seriously, in all seriousness.
Hearing the familiar line, the Golden Toad King felt utterly hopeless.
However, under Li Chen’s sharp sword, he obediently took out a small portion of his treasures, hoping to avoid disaster by losing wealth.
Li Chen raised an eyebrow and asked, “Just these?”
The Golden Toad King nodded vigorously, like a pecking chick.
“Yes, just these. All my possessions are here!”
Li Chen looked at him with a aningful gaze, “Are you sure?”
The Golden Toad King, scared by Li Chen’s penetrating gaze, shivered and tremblingly took out so more treasures.
“Now there’s nothing more. Don’t look at with that gaze, really, nothing left. I swear by the heavens!”
Li Chen sneered coldly, “Heh, not likely.”
After saying this, a dark vortex imdiately ford in his palm, pulling out all the treasures hidden by the Golden Toad King.
When it cos to robbery, Li Chen is a professional!
At this mont, the Golden Toad King felt as if his heart was bleeding painfully. He could finally understand the sympathy of those unfortunates he had previously robbed.
However, what surprised the Golden Toad King was that Li Chen picked through the treasures and returned the remaining ones to him.
This made the Golden Toad King’s heart swell with excitent. Although the good items had been taken by Li Chen, at least he still had so left, better than having nothing.
Because of this, when he looked at Li Chen now, he sohow felt the person was kind and amiable.
Whether human or demon, everyone can be so embarrassingly fickle.
If you give soone 100 yuan every day for 99 days, when you don’t give him on the 100th day, he will hate you to the core.
Completely forgetting the kindness you showed for 99 consecutive days, he will only rember your “ugly” face on the last day when you didn’t give him money.
But if you beat soone up every day for 99 days, when you don’t beat him on the 100th day, he will be filled with gratitude.
Grateful you didn’t hit him that day, considering you a kind-hearted person.
That was the Golden Toad King’s current state of mind.
When he finally left, he even offered profuse thanks to Li Chen, making Xin Qingxue and Lian Hongshang wondering if this guy was ntally ill.
After this little episode, Li Chen and his group of four continued onward.
However, as soon as they had covered twenty or thirty miles, Li Chen suddenly stopped again.
Little Demon Immortal, curious, stepped forward to ask about the reason.
Li Chen did not directly answer her but instead shouted sternly towards the mountain forest above.
“You’ve been following us for so long; it’s ti you show yourself, isn’t it?”
As he spoke, he flicked a finger, sending a Sword Shadow straight into the air.
The Sword Shadow pierced through the air, startling a flock of naless birds that screeched towards the sky.
“Ah!”
A piercing scream suddenly rang out in the forest.
Soon, a demon beast entirely in erald green, resembling a mountain cat, fell from the treetops.
Blood seeped from its hind leg, evidently wounded by Li Chen.
Seeing that it had been discovered, the mountain cat instinctively attempted to flee despite its injuries.
“Zzzzla!”
At this mont, the Lightning Weasel perched on Xin Qingxue’s shoulder turned into a bolt of lightning, swiftly pinning the mountain cat down to the ground.
Little Demon Immortal approached and exclaid, “This is a Chaleon Mountain Cat; its movent technique is very agile, and it can change the color of its fur and even its scent according to the surrounding terrain. Generally, it’s very hard to detect its presence!”
“Kill it!”
Said Xin Qingxue, raising a gleaming Magic Sword intending to end the poor mountain cat’s life.
However, she was stopped by Li Chen.
“Wait a mont, I need to ask a few questions first!”
After saying this, Li Chen locked his death-god-like gaze onto the Chaleon Mountain Cat.
“Speak, why are you following us, and what do you intend?”
The Chaleon Mountain Cat couldn’t et Li Chen’s eyes, involuntarily shivering.
It didn’t directly answer Li Chen’s question but rather stamred out a question in return.
“May I ask, sir, if you are the human prodigy Li Chen?”
Li Chen nodded and replied, “Yes, I am Li Chen.”
Upon getting confirmation, the Chaleon Mountain Cat steadied its nerves and said, “Mr. Li, my master requests your presence!”
Lian Hongshang interrupted, asking, “Who is your master?”
The Chaleon Mountain Cat wore a respectful expression and solemnly replied, “The Sword Emperor Dao Luohen!”
Hearing the na “Sword Emperor Dao Luohen,” Little Demon Immortal shivered.
As a princess of the Demon Clan, she naturally knew the weight behind the na “Sword Emperor Dao Luohen”.
Apart from the Demon Emperor and the Black Demon King, he is the strongest existence in the Demon Clan.
Moreover, in the past, to win him over, her royal father even rewarded him with the upper portion of the Demon Clan’s supre Secret Manual, the “Burning Wood Sword Technique”.
His Sword Skill is extraordinary, even reaching a ghostly level beyond comprehension, and even the Demon Emperor of that year could only barely surpass him by half a move.
Though Li Chen had created miracle after miracle along the way, Little Demon Immortal was still very worried that he might not be a match for Dao Luohen.
“Li Chen…”
Little Demon Immortal suddenly called out Li Chen’s na, intending to prevent all this.
However, she had just uttered a na when Li Chen interrupted.
“It’s okay, don’t worry!”
Li Chen said, then turned to the Chaleon Mountain Cat, commanding coldly, “Go ahead, lead the way!”
The Chaleon Mountain Cat shuddered, quickly got up, and according to Li Chen’s words, ran ahead to lead the way.
Although Dao Luohen is a Human Clan mber, he is undoubtedly the overlord of this Mist Ghost Forest.
Just with the title “Sword Emperor”, he could reign over this perilous land with ease.
Therefore, led by the Chaleon Mountain Cat, they traveled without incident.
Although occasionally so blind monsters tried to scavenge, upon seeing the flag borne by the Chaleon Mountain Cat, they sheepishly retreated.
Quickly, they arrived at the heart of Mist Ghost Forest.
There was a mountain here, and it was the tallest peak for ten thousand miles around in the Mist Ghost Forest.
Previously, this mountain was called Mist Mountain, nad for the layers of mist on it.
However, since Dao Luohen took residence here, whether the indigenous monsters of Mist Ghost Forest or those from elsewhere, they habitually referred to this mountain as Sword Emperor Ridge.
“My master is at the summit; you all may ascend the mountain yourselves!”
The Chaleon Mountain Cat pointed to the ever-changing cloud-covered summit and respectfully said to Li Chen.
Li Chen stood where he was, gazing at the summit for a mont, then nodded slightly, striding towards the summit…
