Chapter 416: Above the Martial Sage is the Martial Immortal, Like Walking on Thin Ice, I Prefer Back
Chapter 416: Above the Martial Sage is the Martial Immortal, Like Walking on Thin Ice, I Prefer Backstabbing [Seeking Monthly Votes] (Part 2)
"Xi Xi, slow down!"
Jin Taishui silently followed behind Xi Xi, exerting all her effort to keep up.
Meanwhile, Zhou Peng, the little chubby one, was panting and sweating profusely from exhaustion.
Yun E, wearing a white veil that revealed only her eyebrows, gracefully caught up with them. Even though only her eyes were visible, they were as exquisite as a finely painted work of art, captivating everyone's gaze.
"You're the one shouting to slow down! Hurry up, the Guangling Dao City is just ahead! Let's go and explore the city!"
Xi Xi stood with her hands on her hips, her little belly protruding, her head held high, and her eyebrows raised as she glared at the chubby Zhou Peng.
Zhou Peng was the one who always complained about being tired during their travels. How could they possibly train in the Jianghu like this?
Zhou Peng, however, wasn't annoyed. He chuckled and casually took out a baozi from the Qianyuan Jade, stuffing it into his mouth and enjoying the delicious treat.
"Xi Xi, why do we need to go to Guangling Dao City? Didn't Elder Li ask us to deliver the mechanism to the Zhenwu Divine Sect?"
"We can just go there directly..."
Zhou Peng spoke nonchalantly.
Xi Xi, like a little chili pepper, glared at Zhou Peng, "We're here to train in the Jianghu. Of course, we should deliver the mechanism to the Zhenwu Divine Sect... But if we're always rushing, how can we have any real training?"
"Moreover, do you know why we were sent out for training ahead of schedule?"
Xi Xi took a deep breath, her red robe billowing in the wind.
Zhou Peng fell silent, as he couldn't possibly be unaware of the reason.
"The Divine Sect is under siege by the imperial army. Elder Li sent us out for training... It's actually a precautionary measure. If the Divine Sect is destroyed by the imperial forces, at least we can continue the legacy of the Qianyuan Divine Sect."
Zhou Peng spoke sadly, so sad that he stuffed three baozis into his mouth one after another.
For a moment, the atmosphere became gloomy.
After traveling for several days, the four children passed through several cities and finally arrived at Guangling Dao City.
Xi Xi stomped her foot, and the accumulated snow on the ground instantly exploded, releasing a burst of scorching blood energy from her body.
Read the error-free version on 69shu! 6=9+shu_The novel is first published on the book bar.
"Why are you so sad? The Divine Sect has my father, and nothing will happen to him. Plus, the Sect Master is so powerful!"
"Did you hear about the Divine Sect Master who came to support them during the siege and destruction of the sect by the imperial forces?"
Xi Xi narrowed her eyes, her usually lively eyes now appearing shrewd and sharp, like a small brain axe emitting a dangerous aura.
She raised her hand and began to bend her fingers one by one, "The Tiandan Divine Sect, Bashu Sword Pavilion, Dragon Tiger Divine Sect, Vast Sage Academy, and Seven Treasures Divine Sect..."
Then, Xi Xi pointed to the Guangling Dao City, which was gradually becoming visible through the swirling snow.
"The Tiandan Divine Sect is located in Guangling Dao City! Humph! As the Young Sect Master of Qianyuan Divine Sect, how can I let them get away with attacking our sect?"
Xi Xi stood with her hands on her hips, her little belly protruding, and her cheeks puffed up.
Yun E fell silent and patted the white rabbit in her arms, "Xi Xi, what do you want to do?"
"Let's get them!" Xi Xi's voice, usually so childish, now held an unprecedented determination.
"Their Sect Master just died! Hey, it's time for the Young Sect Master to take over. Let's go find their Young Sect Master and beat him up!"
Xi Xi's fighting spirit soared.
"It's too dangerous!"
Yun E spoke sternly, shaking her head.
"The Tiandan Divine Sect is a Divine Sect, just as powerful as our Qianyuan. Although many strong cultivators have been deployed by the imperial court... We still can't underestimate them."
Zhou Peng hurriedly agreed, "Yun E is right. Let's continue on our journey and head to the Zhenwu Divine Sect to complete Elder Li's task..."
Yun E glanced at Zhou Peng and then turned to Xi Xi, "Although the Tiandan Divine Sect is a Divine Sect, and their Sect Master has died, they still have many Martial Sages, Divine Embryos, and possibly even more powerful cultivators than us in Qianyuan..."
"I know you're strong, Xi Xi. You won the first place in the Dragon and Phoenix Victory Assembly, but... We're still just kids."
"We can't beat those adults."
Xi Xi listened to Yun E's earnest words, and before she knew it, she had walked over to Yun E's side. She took the little rabbit from Yun E's arms and placed it on her head between her braided pigtails, her lively eyes sparkling.
"Yes, Yun E, you're right, and you're so pretty too!"
The little chubby Zhou Peng immediately became dissatisfied. He, Zhou Peng, may not be good-looking, but he was quite talkative.
Then, the little chubby Zhou Peng turned to the silent Jin Taishui, "Old Jin, what do you think?"
Jin Taishui remained silent for a long time, "I think Xi Xi is right."
Zhou Peng was so frustrated that he stuffed three baozis into his mouth one after another.
"If we're going to Guangling Dao City, let's just take a look, but we should keep a low profile and not cause any trouble. Our main goal is still to go to the Tongyou Dao and complete the task Elder Li entrusted to us."
Yun E's long legs bent slightly, and she playfully pinched Xi Xi's cheeks and said with a smile, "Xi Xi, what do you think?"
Xi Xi didn't argue.
She thought for a moment. With her current cultivation, she wasn't afraid of encountering a Grand Master, but if she faced a Martial Sage...
She might have to run for her life, letting her belly lead the way.
Sigh, it's so difficult to navigate the Jianghu.
Xi Xi sighed, then ran out of Guangling Dao City with renewed energy. She found a tree, dug a hole in it, and raised her hand, summoning a Flying Thunder Chess Piece. She then buried a white chess piece within.
"This Flying Thunder Chess Piece was given to me by my father. With this, I, Li Nuan Xi, can escape from anyone in the world!"
Xi Xi laughed heartily.
"When the time comes, come to my side, and I'll take you with me."
Li Che had put a lot of thought into Xi Xi's training.
He combined the characteristics of the Dragon Elephant Vajra and the Chess Saint's two Dao Fruits, forming a Dao Fruit projection and transmitting it into Xi Xi's body.
Xi Xi could now grasp the characteristics of the Dao Fruit.
For example, she could use the Chess Saint's Dao Fruit to perform techniques like Flying Thunder Teleportation and the Heavenly Earth Chessboard, and the Dragon Elephant Vajra's Sleeping Dragon Elephant and Vajra Transformation.
Of course, her mastery of the Dao Fruit's power couldn't compare to Li Che's.
It was only because of the bond between Li Che and Xi Xi that Xi Xi could carry the Dao Fruit like a Sovereign Avatar.
If anyone else tried, they simply couldn't bear the power of the Dao Fruit.
Li Che had once tested Zhang Ya, but she couldn't handle it. Only Xi Xi was capable of it.
"Let's go."
Xixi buried the Flying Thunder Chess Piece and stomped her feet.
Then, together with her little friends, they headed towards Guangling Dao City.
Amidst the swirling snow, the four little ones entered Guangling Dao City, assuming the identities of wandering martial artists.
...
...
Guangling Dao City.
Tiandan Divine Sect's Mountain Gate.
Purple Golden Alchemy Pavilion.
"Clang, clang, clang, clang, clang—"
Within the scorching alchemy pavilion, a massive cauldron was set up, and it suddenly emitted a crisp, muffled sound.
The figure in a long robe sitting in front of the cauldron, with his hair loose and disheveled, slowly opened his eyes.
In his eyes, a flash of blood-red light swiftly passed by.
"Such exquisite medicinal energy..."
"Heaven's blessing upon me!"
...
...
Qianyuan Divine Sect.
Elder's Chamber, Study.
Li Che slowly opened his eyes, savoring the scene before him.
"Thankfully, Yun E is with them; otherwise, no one could hold back Xixi's unbridled nature... This little girl, if not restrained, might even dare to challenge the emperor in the Divine Capital."
"Not considering her own cultivation level..."
Li Che shook his head.
"Have you been to Guangling Dao City?"
The news of the death of the Tiandan Divine Sect's leader, a top-tier divine being, had already reached Guangling Dao, as it was adjacent to Lingnan Dao.
Li Che left a portion of his consciousness to constantly monitor the children's training situation.
He then settled his mind.
Planning to use the insights gained from the Dao Fruit to enhance his own cultivation.
However, Li Che suddenly thought of something.
In his chest, the Ten Thousand Demons Emperor's Dao Fruit seemed to throb as if in complaint.
After some thought, Li Che smiled lightly, stood up, and stretched lazily.
"I almost forgot about those four demon dragons..."
The Dragon Deity Clan, though called the Dragon Clan, was, in reality, the Demon Clan.
The Dragon Prince, along with the three Dragon Sons, could combine their powers to form a Half-Step Dragon Deity-level existence.
During the battle between the imperial army and the mountain sect, they had caused considerable trouble for the Qianyuan Divine Sect.
If not for Fang Hanshu's sudden burst of power, it would have been difficult to withstand the imperial army's might.
Additionally, Li Che recalled the Hunter God Tower assassin who had blocked Gu Qianchi, the Divine Tribulation Cultivator, during the previous assassination attempt on Xie Yunshen.
"The Great Elder... is actually a Hunter God assassin."
Li Che couldn't help but squint his eyes.
Although Fang Hanshu had hidden his aura, the Star Whirl Mask made his energy signature seem like that of two different people.
But Li Che's perception didn't rely on his own Heavenly Soul; instead, he relied on the Heavenly Chessboard.
Through the perception of the Heavenly Chessboard, the aura of that Hunter God assassin... was identical to that of the Great Elder, Fang Hanshu.
"He's been hiding so deeply..."
Li Che couldn't help but click his tongue.
Divine Tribulation! Even Li Che hadn't anticipated that because of the differences in the Divine Tribulations of the Great Elder, Gu Qianchi, and Zhao Beidou, they could still act freely in the mortal world without attracting the attention of the Three Disasters.
How was this possible?
Li Che's eyes flashed.
"Hunter God Tower..."
It was most likely related to the Hunter God Tower.
No longer thinking about the Great Elder, Li Che stood up, slightly spreading his arms, causing his muscles to emit a loud cracking sound.
"The Dragon Deity Clan... according to Xie Yunshen's feedback, the Dragon Deity Clan has completely sided with the imperial court. They plan to land from the East Sea, and even the old Dragon Deity, with his limited time, has been chosen to leave the East Sea."
"The emperor has granted permission for the old Dragon Deity to land. This Divine Realm being wants to fight for his race's survival, and if they can conquer the Qianyuan Divine Sect, the Dragon Deity Clan will have a place to live on land."
"Qianyuan Dao City will be their future home..."
Li Che's eyes shone.
"This old Dragon Deity is not an easy opponent; he's like the Qianyuan Grand Patriarch, a Divine Tribulation Cultivator at the First Calamity Second Tribulation level. In terms of strength, he surpasses Zhao Beidou and Gu Qianchi, making him a formidable challenge."
Li Che had to consider the threat posed by this Dragon Deity's arrival.
Although Xie Yunshen had already been bound by Li Che, the old Dragon Deity was, after all, an ancient monster at the First Calamity Second Stage.
If forced to take action, it wouldn't be easy.
Li Che stood in the study, his lips curling up slightly, his face seemingly shrouded in darkness.
"Therefore, the Dragon Prince... must become my Bound Deity, so I can later give the old Dragon Deity a pleasant surprise with a backstab."
The First Calamity Second Tribulation Divine Tribulation Cultivator was indeed powerful.
Li Che had to acknowledge their strength, so...
He could only resort to some despicable means.
Is backstabbing despicable? Of course, it is, but Li Che never cared. To survive, what's wrong with being a little despicable?
In this chaotic world, walking on thin ice, with his wife and daughter, being a little despicable, and enjoying backstabbing, was all for survival... Was it excessive?!
Even if it was excessive, it didn't matter...
Because only those who were alive had the right to talk about principles.
Li Che exhaled a powerful stream of energy from his mouth.
"Just right... I can also test the strength of my fleshly body after transforming into an Immortal Warrior Body."
The next moment, he spread his fingers, and a cute Cute Bull Mask was immediately placed over his face.
His fingertips glided over the mask.
A white chess piece instantly appeared in his palm.
As he clenched his fist.
His entire person vanished from the study.
...
...
Boom!
On the surface of the Grand Canal, the water surged endlessly, and in the sky above, snowflakes danced and fell.
Before they could land on the water, they were instantly melted by the scorching temperature!
And beneath the water.
The currents surged and roared.
A long dragon, its entire body a vivid green, with each scale intricately detailed, breathed out hot air, its aura rolling and surging, lying at the bottom of the river. Countless currents swirled around its body, as if its blood was boiling.
Its massive body stretched for ten zhang, resembling a terrifying giant beast crouching in suppression! With each breath, its dragon whiskers fluttered, causing the water to surge and tremble.
And in the distance.
There were three more dragons, slightly smaller, also lying and sleeping soundly.
The Dragon Prince, bearing the title of the Dragon King, had swallowed a Dragon Emperor Orb and was refining its energy, attempting to break through to the Dragon Deity Realm, although... the chances were slim.
The Dragon Deity Clan hadn't produced a new Dragon Deity for many years.
Dragon Prince, though ambitious, had never imagined achieving this with just a Dragon Emperor Orb.
Whoosh!
The water surged.
Suddenly.
The Dragon Prince, who had been sleeping with his eyes closed, felt as if his entire body's dragon scales were freezing.
His two dragon eyes abruptly opened wide, staring intently.
And he saw...
A black-clad figure, wearing a cute Cute Bull Mask, stood tall like a tower mountain, his arms crossed over his chest, his hair flowing like water.
He stared at the dragon as if observing mud.
