Chapter 1961: Ye big brother, this dragon seed was saved for you

These eight people looked young, but when they saw Ye Zhangqing's group, their expressions were completely opposite.

Four of them were filled with fear, while the other four had icy faces and a posture ready to strike at any moment.

But just as this young man was speaking, before he could finish his sentence, his companion beside him clapped a hand over his mouth.

He could only make a muffled 'wu-wu-wu' sound.

Ye Zhangqing hadn't even had a chance to respond when he saw this scene, and his eyelid twitched.

At the same time, the man whose mouth was covered was bewildered, shouting, "What the hell are you covering my mouth for? Can't you see I was speaking?"

But before he could break free, he heard his senior brother's mental transmission.

"You're courting death—this person must not be provoked, or we'll all be done for."

Huh???

Hearing his senior brother's spiritual voice transmission, the man stopped struggling, filled with doubt, and stood frozen in place.

Seeing this, the senior brother beside him finally relaxed a little, then hurriedly bowed to Ye Zhangqing.

"Ye big brother, my junior brother didn't mean it that way just now."

"Oh, what did you mean then?"

Upon hearing this, Tang Xin smiled and asked, and the man answered without hesitation.

"We've been guarding this dragon seed for Ye big brother, waiting for him to come harvest it."

Huh???

Upon hearing this, the other four stared at their own senior brother with strange expressions.

They indeed came from the same faction; entering this Ancient Dragon Battlefield, they were partly there for training and partly to try their luck, hoping to obtain something good.

As for their senior brother's temperament, they certainly knew it well—he was usually wildly unrestrained, with an extremely violent temper, ready to fight at the slightest disagreement.

But now, seeing their senior brother bowing and scraping, utterly fawning, the four junior brothers who didn't know the situation were completely bewildered.

Has the senior brother been possessed?

However, the senior brother paid no heed to that, focusing all his attention on Ye Zhangqing.

Seeing that Ye Zhangqing's expression hadn't changed, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief and then continued.

"Ye big brother, I'll go pick this dragon seed for you now?"

Huh???

What the hell, you still want to help them pick the dragon seed? Are you a lackey?

Upon hearing that, the four junior brothers became even more confused, and they almost couldn't help but want to ask.

But a glare stopped them.

Damn it, we're busy trying to stay alive; we can talk later.

Seeing this, Ye Zhangqing said helplessly.

"Then I'll trouble you, fellow cultivator."

"No, no, Ye big brother, you're being too modest; being able to do something for you is an honor for this junior."

Huh???

Fine, fine, you're really sucking up, huh?

Under the complex, strange gazes of the four junior brothers, this man scrambled up the dragon carcass and carefully plucked the dragon seed.

Throughout the process, his movements were so gentle they resembled caressing his own dao partner.

No, to be precise, even treating his own dao partner wouldn't be this gentle—it was extremely careful.

"Senior brother, the dragon seed is here."

Finally, he respectfully approached Ye Zhangqing and held the dragon seed aloft with both hands.

After receiving the dragon seed, Ye Zhangqing thanked him.

"Thanks; I'll consider this a favor I owe you."

Ye Zhangqing's nature is just like that, and upon hearing this, the man's heart immediately leapt with joy.

A favor, Ye big brother's favor.

What does this mean? In the Ancient Dragon Battlefield, this is practically an extra life.

With Ye Zhangqing watching over me, who in the Ancient Dragon Battlefield could hurt me? I fear nothing.

Overjoyed, he repeatedly thanked him, whereupon Ye Zhangqing accepted the dragon seed and left with Tang Xin and the other girls.

"Take care, Ye big brother; take care, Tang senior sister; take care, all senior sisters."

He continued to see them off respectfully until Ye Zhangqing's group vanished from sight, then he finally straightened up.

At that moment, the four junior brothers who didn't know the inside story could no longer hold back; the man who had just had his mouth covered stepped forward first and asked.

"Senior brother, what's wrong with you?"

"Stupid; if it weren't for me just now, you'd already be dead."

"What do you mean by that, senior brother?"

"You must not provoke Ye big brother; from now on, when you see him, treat him as you would Tianlin—understand?"

Huh???

The more he spoke, the more doubtful they became; finally, the man recounted what had happened at the entrance, and only then did the four stare in shock.

When they entered the Ancient Dragon Battlefield, these four had gone ahead, so they didn't see Ye Zhangqing slay Jiao Hua and the others.

After hearing their senior brother's account, the four junior brothers finally exclaimed in shock.

"The Jiao Hua our senior brother mentioned— which one from Pill King Immortal City is that?"

"Nonsense, who else could it be? Let me tell you—I was there at the time and witnessed the whole thing myself."

"Ye big brother killed Jiao Hua with just a single punch; think about it—his strength is such that even against Tianlin, there wouldn't be much difference; he's truly a top-tier monster."

Not to mention us juniors, even those senior powerhouses dare not provoke Big Brother Ye Zhangqing inside the Ancient Dragon Battlefield.

An elder of the Pill King Immortal City was even forced by Big Brother Ye Zhangqing to defect on the spot.

Defection? What's going on?

Ah, don't worry about these details; anyway, you just need to remember that this person is someone we cannot afford to offend—when we see him in the future, we can only befriend him and must never offend him.

Otherwise, even if you die, it would be in vain, and the sect won't be able to protect you.

The sect that the eight of them belong to is also considered a major power in the Immortal Realm, but it still has some gaps compared to the Cooking King Immortal City.

And Ye Zhangqing, as a top-tier Yāoniè, although he doesn't know much, the Cooking King Immortal City, as long as it hasn't lost its wits, will definitely protect him to the death.

It's impossible to let him come to any harm, so even if he were killed, it would be a pointless death.

Seeing their own Shī xiōng give such earnest instructions, the four junior brothers also nodded heavily.

With the dragon seed gone, the eight of them naturally didn't linger, continuing deeper; along the way, all they talked about were topics concerning Ye Zhangqing.

Shī xiōng, you say, compared to Tianlin, who is stronger, Big Brother Ye Zhangqing?

Who knows? The Heavenly Family's young master has been famous for a long time, his strength naturally needs no questioning; being invincible among peers is a given. Big Brother Ye Zhangqing emerged out of nowhere, killing the glue flower with a single punch—he is also undoubtedly a top-tier Yāoniè; it's hard to say.

Shī xiōng, you say, if Big Brother Ye Zhangqing meets Tianlin, what would happen?

Hehe, I've thought about this problem for a long time, and I think, in this ancient battlefield, the two are bound to meet; don't forget the Ancient Dragon's true blood—that's a treasure everyone wants.

Before, it was always those few top-tier Yāoniè who got it; they seemed to have secretly agreed that only one would come each time, as if they had pre-booked the Ancient Dragon's true blood, and nobody dared to compete with them.

But this time is different; with Big Brother Ye Zhangqing around, if the Heavenly Family's young master wants the Ancient Dragon's true blood, he still has to ask Big Brother Ye Zhangqing whether he agrees—there will definitely be a battle between them.
