Chapter 2201 - 2200: Setting a Trap
Long Fei and Little Qing exchanged a mischievous smile, quietly watching the drama unfold from the sidelines.
Xiao Ren and Wuu De were older than most of the young people present, and it was fine as long as the people around didn’t heckle them.
Once they did, the two slapped their heads in realization, exclaiming, wondering what they were doing there!
If they fought to the death, wouldn’t it be advantageous for these juniors?
Xiao Ren corrected his posture and said to Wuu De, "Senior Brother Wuu De, let’s not bicker here. This place is dangerous, with the Time Laws affecting the surroundings. If we don’t leave soon, we might all be devoured into dust by this ancient painting. Doesn’t everyone feel like their Essential Qi is constantly being drained?"
The people around looked at each other, indeed feeling the same way.
In fact, whether in the larger or smaller world, the surrounding Space and Time Laws would devour a person’s Essence, Qi, and Spirit.
As if it were ordinary people needing to eat continuously to maintain strength.
However, in this ancient painting world, the consumption of Essential Qi was much faster than outside.
This was precisely the effect of the ancient painting.
Wuu De also calmed down and said, "Junior Brother Xiao Ren, tell everyone a solution. There’s only one Azure Dragon Whelp, it’s not like it can be divided and everyone gets a piece, right?"
Upon hearing this, Little Qing rolled his eyes at Wuu De, targeting a beautiful woman in the crowd, burrowing directly into her arms.
This female cultivator was taken aback but soon charmed by Little Qing’s naïve big eyes, laughing as she gently held its head, "What does this mean?"
Little Qing, this boy, seemed to have grown a bit recently.
The male cultivator beside the woman laughed, "Junior Sister, this is the Little Azure Dragon recognizing a master and voluntarily throwing itself into your arms."
The female cultivator was overjoyed, feigning embarrassment at Wuu De, Xiao Ren, and the other cultivators, indicating, "How could this be? I didn’t have such a thought, but since this Little Azure Dragon has chosen me, I have no choice but to reluctantly accept it."
Her words immediately agitated the cultivators on the scene, shouting, "Little girl, such audacity! Our elders haven’t spoken; what gives you the right to decide here?"
"Indeed, this is a heavenly treasure. What gives you the right to make a decision here? A common man is innocent, but someone with a treasure courts trouble. Little girl, I advise you to let it go and talk."
"Little girl, don’t bring trouble upon yourself!"
"..."
A group of older Daoists threatened.
The woman remained unmoved, coquettishly speaking to the male cultivator beside her, "Senior Brother, they’re threatening me!"
The male cultivator arrogantly laughed with a sword in hand, "Oh dear, we at Yuquan Mountain haven’t been seen in a while, do these small sects dare to threaten us? Don’t forget, where did the last War God of the Heavenly Court in the Ancient Era come from!"
Wuu De retorted directly, "Brat, don’t be so arrogant. We’re all from famous sects; whose ancestors didn’t produce a few extraordinary figures? My uncle advises you not to meddle carelessly, lest you get burned and gain nothing."
Xiao Ren chuckled, "Exactly, now that the Immortal Path is closed, your Heavenly Court War God cannot return. When it comes to true skills, Yuquan Mountain doesn’t even rank now."
The male cultivator coldly laughed, "Senior Brother Xiao Ren, today, I will see what you’re made of."
His longsword shone with killing intent, directly slashing at Xiao Ren.
Xiao Ren shouted, "How dare you offend your uncle!"
He too drew his sword, the Sword Qi soaring hundreds of meters high, colliding with the male cultivator’s Sword Qi in a swift flash in the air.
The void rumbled, Sword Qi crisscrossing.
Both True Immortal Swords simultaneously released overwhelming Laws of Killing Intent, tearing the space on the scene, unleashing vigorous winds in all directions.
During the fierce battle, no one noticed Long Fei.
Long Fei created a clone, taking out Thunderstruck Wood to set up a Thunder Summoning Grand Formation around Bliss Mountain.
At the same time, he left a gap in the formation, laying the Mountains and Rivers Map on it.
His main body quietly came behind that beautiful female cultivator, softly smiling at her, "This little one is quite adorable, isn’t it?"
"Yes!"
The female cultivator nodded, suddenly startled, looking back to find Long Fei standing near her.
She instinctively hugged the Azure Dragon tighter, drawing her sword toward Long Fei, "What do you want?"
Long Fei quickly waved his hands, "I don’t want anything, just asking the lady for a favor."
The female cultivator frowned, "What kind of favor?"
Long Fei said, "Look, I’m a Loose Cultivator, unaligned, with low mana. Since the Azure Dragon chose you, it means it likes you. I’m happy you got it. How about this, I’ll give you the Azure Dragon, and you protect me safely out of this painting, how’s that?"
The female cultivator was confused, scrutinizing him up and down. Seeing his honest face speaking sincerely, she believed him a bit, "Do you mean it?"
"Of course!"
Long Fei nodded, saying to her, "I can announce it to everyone right now."
Suddenly, he shouted, "Fellow Daoists, listen: I’m going to let go of this Azure Dragon to this lovely lady. Now the Azure Dragon belongs to her, so let’s not fight over it."
The beautiful cultivator was surprised that Long Fei really intended to give the creature to her.
With the Azure Dragon’s original master speaking out, acquiring the Azure Dragon became much more reasonable.
She smiled cheerfully at Long Fei, "Thanks, I, Su Yue, will definitely ensure your safety."
Long Fei cupped his hands, his face sincere, "Much obliged, Miss Su."
This shout caught the attention of all the cultivators around.
Senior Brother Su Yue, still locked in intense combat with Xiao Ren, immediately separated upon hearing the voice.
Su Yue shouted at Xiao Ren, "Uncle Xiao Ren, the master of the matter has spoken to let go of this Azure Dragon to me. If you forcefully take it, when I report to my master, any sect dispute that arises will be on your shoulders."
Xiao Ren and Wuu De exchanged glances, unwilling to let this cooked duck fly into someone else’s hands.
He pointed his longsword at Long Fei and shouted, "You fool, why would you let this Azure Dragon go to this little girl? Give me the Azure Dragon, and I will ensure your safety."
Wuu De cooperatively added, "Indeed, give this thing to Daoist Xiao Ren, and I will also ensure your safety."
He knew he couldn’t oppose so many cultivators alone. Sensibly teaming up with Xiao Ren, they planned to seize the Azure Dragon Whelp first before deciding.
Senior Brother Su Yue angrily shouted, "Since this Azure Dragon Whelp has recognized my Junior Sister as its master, why force it? With me, Yang Yan, here, I dare anyone to touch my Junior Sister."
The surrounding crowd exclaimed, "That’s Yang Yan, right?"
"One of the Ten Masters of Tianshu Star?"
"No wonder he’s so powerful; he can wield Sword Qi to contest Senior Xiao Ren."
"Wow, some good drama is coming."
"..."
The crowd was gleefully gossipy, waiting to reap the aftermath.
At this moment, Long Fei’s clone activated the formation outside.
In the sky, dark clouds gathered suddenly, and thunder rumbled.
Golden Heavenly Thunder, like giant dragons, roamed within the clouds, rumbling ceaselessly.
