Chapter 374

Qin Yang cast the ancient god curse upon Ao Zhan.

This left Ao Zhan's face ashen.

He had thought he was free today, but instead he became someone's mount.

Seeing Ao Zhan's dead‑ashen look, Qin Yang said disdainfully, "You wish, thinking I'd actually take a liking to you. If the senior hadn't spoken, I'd have stewed you, but you're only a Mysterious Immortal—my mount needs at least a Golden Immortal."

Ao Zhan rolled his eyes at Qin Yang, looking at him as if he were an idiot.

"A Golden Immortal cultivator, even dead, could hardly become another's mount—unless raised from childhood or so strong that the other submits willingly, like Lord Chiyou, whose mount, the iron‑eating beast, was once a peak Golden Immortal powerhouse."

Hearing Ao Zhan's words, Qin Yang was not surprised.

Being able to serve as Chiyou's mount, a peak Golden Immortal should be the bare minimum.

It's a pity that the iron‑eating beast caused some trouble; now Chiyou no longer wants it.

Xiǎng dào zhèlǐ, Qin Yang felt like laughing.

The iron‑eating beast now Hòuhuǐ, it's already too late.

No matter how hard it tried to please, Chiyou simply wouldn't have it.

"Alright, we should head back."

Chiyou said.

Speaking of the iron‑eating beast, he was displeased.

"Senior, can we find another body?"

Qin Yang asked.

"For now I can't sense it; even if we looked, you couldn't get hold of it."

Chiyou said.

"Why?"

Qin Yang was taken aback.

Even if the opponent is a Mysterious Immortal, our three Mysterious Immortal‑level fighters could still defeat him.

"The remaining vessels are likely guarded by Golden Immortal‑level powerhouses; we're no match for them, and even if you reach the Mysterious Immortal level, you'd still struggle to truly oppose a Golden Immortal—once you reach Golden Immortal, it's practically a different Jìngjiè from Mysterious Immortal."

Chiyou's expression grew solemn.

At that moment, Ao Zhan said, "I can prove this point—hey, master, whose disciple are you? You don't even know this basic fact? Must be a rogue cultivator."

Saying that, Ao Zhan felt a chill inside.

If you really are a rogue cultivator, that's troublesome.

In the immortal world, those without background who still shine brightly usually don't end well.

Although Qin Yang still has Chiyou, that demon god, by his side.

But even if Chiyou has recovered his peak strength, he still has many powerful foes.

Whether he can protect himself is uncertain, let alone protecting Qin Yang.

"What's wrong with being a rogue cultivator? You're still a Mysterious Immortal—do you despise me?"

Qin Yang countered.

Ao Zhan couldn't help rolling his eyes and said testily, "I'm a Mysterious Immortal only because the environment here is poor and lacks the power to boost my strength; once I return to the Earth Immortal realm, even if I don't cultivate and just sleep, I'll become a Golden Immortal."

Hearing Ao Zhan's words, Qin Yang was startled.

Is this what they call racial talent?

Indeed, it's strong.

They can become Golden Immortals just by letting time pass.

"The dragon clan truly is favored by heaven."

Qin Yang sighed.

Chiyou said, "Not all dragon clans are heaven‑favored; only those with the ancestral dragon bloodline and the dragon king's descendants have such capital. Their next generation will be far weaker, and without effort they can at most become Heavenly or Mysterious Immortals."

Qin Yang couldn't help curling his lips.

Even Heavenly and Mysterious Immortals are impressive.

This is pure innate growth—no cultivation needed.

For humanity to become a True Immortal is quite difficult.

"Alright, let's go; I want to completely soften my flesh."

Chiyou said.

Qin Yang nodded.

They returned.

In Place: Baiyun Guan, when Ao Zhan transformed into a true dragon and appeared above Place: Baiyun Guan,

the immense dragon might burst forth, astonishing to the extreme.

Even powerful Xiūshì felt their legs go weak under the dragon's pressure, actually feeling an urge to kneel.

This is a true dragon; on Lan Xing, such a thing is actually hidden.

Everyone's heart trembled.

Is this dragon friend or foe?

If it's an enemy, Place: Baiyun Guan will be in big trouble today.

Qin Yang might not be able to suppress this true dragon.

At that moment, someone saw Qin Yang and Chiyou jump down from the true dragon's body.

"Whoa, a dragon rider?"

"Yin Zhiping?"

Immediately someone picked up the conversation; Jiéguǒ, instantly many people rolled their eyes.

That Xiūshì gave an embarrassed smile, seeming to have no sense of humor at all.

Ao Zhan also took human form and greeted everyone.

"Ladies and gentlemen, let me introduce myself; I am Ao Zhan, son of the East Sea Dragon King Ao Guang."

Ao Zhan spoke up, revealing his identity.

This startled everyone.

East Sea Dragon King?

The legendary chief of the Four Sea Dragon Kings.

"Does the East Sea Dragon King really exist?" Xu Qinghui said in surprise.

"Look at what you're saying; if it didn't exist, how could I appear? However, my father the king is not on Lan Xing, but in the Earth Immortal Realm."

Ao Zhan explained.

I see.

Everyone let out a sigh of relief.

However, how did this little dragon king end up on Lan Xing?

"Why is the little dragon king on Lan Xing?"

Xu Qinghui asked.

Ao Zhan didn't even think, directly saying: "Back then I was conscripted to guard Chiyou's remnant body after it was subdued, and now I am finally free."

Qin Yang wanted to stop him, but it was already too late.

Thus the other party simply revealed Chiyou's existence.

Everyone fell silent.

Guarding Chiyou's remnant body?

Now freed, what does that mean?

Aside from the people of Place: Baiyun Guan, those cultivators all had stiff expressions.

They thought of an extremely terrifying possibility: Chiyou had revived, and had even retrieved his remnant body.

The matter of the foreign Shénmíng hasn't been resolved yet, yet Chiyou has appeared again.

This ancient demon god, although we don't know his current strength.

But just his title is enough to scare people to death just thinking about it.

"You don't need to be afraid, actually..."

"You can shut up."

Ao Zhan hadn't finished speaking when Qin Yang interrupted him.

He almost laughed in anger.

Just how much more is this guy going to spill?

I don't know if he did it on purpose or unintentionally.

Ao Zhan looked at Qin Yang with a blank, dazed expression.

Qin Yang felt a stir in his heart; okay, he was sure the other wasn't doing it on purpose, just pure stupidity.

"Everyone, don't worry about the matter of the demon god Chiyou; he won't threaten us."

Qin Yang said firmly.

Although they didn't know why Qin Yang said that, they chose to Xiāngxìn Qin Yang.

After all, Qin Yang is the strongest among them; whatever he says naturally carries persuasive power.

Moreover, he should know about Chiyou's situation, after all, this little dragon king was brought by him personally.

"Of course, Chiyou is one of you."

The next moment, Ao Zhan spoke directly.

Good fellow, Qin Yang really laughed in anger.
