Chapter 341: Golden Dragon Qi

With Li Luo patting his head, Ji Sun was so angry that veins popped on his forehead. He cast a dark look at Li Luo and said, "I never thought I'd have a day of capsizing in a ditch."

Li Luo said unhappily, "What ditch? It's clearly a river—you're just blind."

Ji Sun gave a cold laugh, too lazy to argue with him, and said, "So what if you won? You think this is over? Let me tell you, your trouble is only just beginning."

Li Luo's gaze sharpened slightly. "You really do know something."

"Friend, care to share?" he said with a smile.

Ji Sun glanced at him sideways. "What are you? On what grounds should I tell you? You can't kill me anyway."

Li Luo stroked his chin and sighed. "No need to get so stiff between friends, right? Wouldn't it be nicer if we all chatted in harmony?"

Ji Sun gave a cold laugh and simply ignored him.

Qin Qin Zhulu's eyes were murderous. "Let's start by breaking both his hands and legs."

Ji Sun said disdainfully, "Ignorant fools. As long as I suffer a serious injury, I'll go straight into a feigned-death state. By then, although I'll be considered eliminated, you won't be able to hurt me."

Qin Qin Zhulu's eyes blazed with fury. This damn Golden Dragon Arena was truly troublesome—giving out so much protection, not satisfying at all.

Li Luo held Qin Qin Zhulu back. "Don't be so crude, always shouting about beating and killing. How about this—on the way here, I saw some Spring Desire Flowers. Go grab some and make him eat them."

"Spring Desire Flowers?" Qin Qin Zhulu was stunned. Those were herbs that some spirit beasts liked to swallow during their mating season, with aphrodisiac effects.

Lü Qing'er, off to the side, blushed and gave a soft spit.

Ji Sun's face also changed drastically. "What are you trying to do?"

Li Luo comforted him, "Relax, it's fine. We won't hurt you. Later we'll feed you some Spring Desire Flowers, then find a spirit beast and toss you over to it. Don't worry—I'll try my best to pick a female one."

Ji Sun's face went green. What the hell do you mean by "try my best to pick a female one"?

"Damn you, you'll die a horrible death!" Ji Sun cursed viciously. This bastard was way too underhanded.

"I'll give you three seconds to think it over." Li Luo smiled and held up a finger.

"One."

"Big brother, go ahead and ask." Before "two" could even be uttered, Ji Sun's expression shifted and he said earnestly.

Seeing this, Qin Qin Zhulu couldn't help cursing, "You're a real pushover!"

Just now he wasn't afraid of having his bones broken, but now hearing that Li Luo was going to feed him Spring Desire Flowers and toss him into a beast pile, he immediately got so cowardly he even called out "big brother"—way too realistic.

Ji Sun's face twitched, and he stopped paying attention to Qin Qin Zhulu. He wanted to tough it out too, but the bastard in front of him was too vicious. He'd rather be beaten into serious injury than be tormented like this—it would genuinely leave psychological scars.

Li Luo nodded with a beaming smile. "Friend, you really are a fine hero."

"Then tell us—what exactly is going on with our companion here?"

Lü Qing'er also looked over curiously; she too wanted to know what her situation actually was.

Ji Sun glanced at Lü Qing'er and said in a muffled voice, "Among your team, she should be the one from the Great Xia Golden Dragon Treasure House, right?"

Li Luo nodded.

"Then how come you didn't do any homework on the Golden Dragon Arena at all? Otherwise you should've been able to guess it." Ji Sun said.

Li Luo also looked at Lü Qing'er. We're not from the Golden Dragon Treasure House, so we have no idea about these secrets of the Golden Dragon Arena.

Lü Qing'er's fair, pretty face flushed slightly. She'd come in with the attitude of a pleasure-seeking tourist—how would she have done this homework in advance? That Ji Sun was really annoying, bringing up the one thing you don't want to mention. She really wanted to freeze his mouth shut.

"If I'm not mistaken, what she's triggered is 'Golden Dragon Qi.'" Ji Sun looked at Lü Qing'er with unconcealable envy.

"Golden Dragon Qi?" Li Luo's brow rose slightly.

"Simply put, it's because when she entered the Golden Dragon Arena, she formed some resonance with this space—or rather, her compatibility with the Golden Dragon Arena is quite high. This will draw a wisp of Golden Dragon Qi to attach itself to her. You can think of it as some kind of ineffably mysterious fortune. Although this thing is useless once you leave the Golden Dragon Arena, inside the arena she's essentially a lucky star, a treasure bowl—wherever she goes, she can easily obtain all kinds of heavenly materials and earthly treasures." Ji Sun said.

"This kind of Golden Dragon Qi possession is quite rare, but it's not unheard of. It has occasionally appeared in the past—it's just that this is my first time seeing it in person."

Li Luo, Lü Qing'er, and Qin Qin Zhulu exchanged glances. This Golden Dragon Arena was truly wondrous—it could even have such strange things?

Simply put, Lü Qing'er now had fortune shining over her head, so wherever she wandered, these rare spirit plants would come knocking on her door.

Li Luo's face took on a thoughtful look. He didn't feel any joy over it; instead, his brow furrowed slightly. Although this Golden Dragon Qi could bring many benefits, there was a saying in this world: he who holds jade invites sin. Their team's strength within this Golden Dragon Arena couldn't be considered top-tier, and if it really attracted a lot of covetous eyes, they might not be able to hold onto it.

When the time came, some powerful teams would detain Lü Qing'er. Although they wouldn't go so far as to hurt her, they would certainly make her search for treasures everywhere and exploit her.

That kind of forced behavior was clearly an extremely unpleasant trial experience.

While Li Luo was silent, Lü Qing'er clearly thought of this too, and her pretty face darkened slightly.

Qin Qin Zhulu didn't say anything either. Although given his personality, he would actually yearn for such a thrilling situation, after all, the one being targeted wasn't him—it was Lü Qing'er.

"How about we just hide here for a while?" Lü Qing'er said after a long pause.

"As long as my Golden Dragon Qi isn't exposed, it shouldn't bring trouble."

Li Luo thought it over. Temporary forbearance was indeed feasible—first figure out the patterns of this so-called Golden Dragon Qi, then be careful not to let it show. Things should be better then.

While thinking this, he suddenly noticed Ji Sun's expression was a bit strange. He immediately recalled something, his heart jolted slightly, and he said slowly, "You haven't spread the word about the Golden Dragon Qi, have you?"

Ji Sun forced a smile. "No."

Li Luo stared at him for a few seconds. "Looks like my friend really wants to eat some Spring Desire Flowers."

Ji Sun's face changed, and he hurriedly said honestly, "Actually... when I was secretly following you earlier, just to be cautious, I used our Snow Wolf Kingdom's unique flying-bee message transmission to send the news about the Golden Dragon Qi and portraits of the three of you to another team from our Snow Wolf Kingdom's Golden Dragon Treasure House..."

The atmosphere fell silent. Both Li Luo and Lü Qing'er's gazes turned unfriendly.

Li Luo finally couldn't help cursing, "Tell me, are you sick in the head? Such a huge advantage and you don't want to keep it for yourself—you even sent it to other teams?"

Ji Sun said a bit awkwardly, "The captain of that team happens to be my brother. I figured, if something happened to me later, the good stuff wouldn't flow to outsiders, right?"

Screw your "good stuff doesn't flow to outsiders."

Li Luo stared fiercely at Ji Sun.

Ji Sun felt a chill from his gaze and said, "Friend, a man's word is his bond—don't throw away even the basic morality of being human."

Li Luo clenched his teeth, and in the end could only wave his hand, swallowing a bellyful of anger.

"Carry those two guys over here and send these three bastards off with a sacrificial burning."
