Chapter 130: Tinnitus (Bonus chapter for Alliance Leader AD Yuchen)

~8 min read 1,513 words

In short, Liu Xiaolou couldn't make sense of this battle between the swimming dragon and the warrior. The gap in cultivation realms was too great; watching more was meaningless. It was just a spectacle, and like the previous match, he didn't even understand how Lord Lord Jingzhao won.

This battle was a bit of a loss; he watched the spectacle but injured his eardrums, so when observing the next battle, he couldn't hear what the two were saying, and Liu Xiaolou was inevitably a bit confused. Mount Tianmu was indeed famous for alchemy, but Lu Yuanlang bringing an alchemy furnace onto the stage was truly surprising—mainly to low-level cultivators like Liu Xiaolou.

Lu Yuanlang sat cross-legged on the ground, closed his eyes, and performed incantations. The alchemy furnace immediately spun and flew above his head.

Lord Lord Jingzhao didn't use Spirit Manifestation again but sat cross-legged opposite him, eyes closed tight, fingers constantly pinching incantations.

The two sat there quietly, all four eyes closed. There were no thunder shadows or lightning, no raging winds or rain, and no smoke or mist. The only movement was the alchemy furnace spinning above Lu Yuanlang's head and Lord Lord Jingzhao's constantly moving fingers.

The entire arena was silent, save for the tinnitus caused by the previous battle, still "Yin-yin-yin-yin—"

Liu Xiaolou turned his head and continued to look at the Tiger-Headed Flood Dragon: "..."

The Tiger-Headed Flood Dragon nodded to indicate: "..."

It turned and ran again, and when it returned, it shouted: "..."

Liu Xiaolou's comprehension was clearly not as good as the Tiger-Headed Flood Dragon's, so he had to point to his own ears. The Tiger-Headed Flood Dragon immediately wrote a character in the air: "Calculate."

Just as he was half-understanding, he saw Lord Lord Jingzhao on the stage suddenly stand up, shout loudly at Lu Yuanlang: "..." and held up two fingers.

Liu Xiaolou didn't understand, so he asked: "..."

The Tiger-Headed Flood Dragon spread its hands: "..."

Looking at Lu Yuanlang again, his head was covered in sweat, and misty vapor rose from the top of his head. In that mist, two spirit pills could be faintly seen blooming with radiance, but they quickly hid their light and disappeared.

Lord Lord Jingzhao took a step forward and shouted again: "..." holding up five fingers.

Five spirit pills flashed in the mist above Lu Yuanlang's head. He crossed his arms and danced them like wheels in front of his chest, finally masking the shape of the five spirit pills, but his face grew paler.

Liu Xiaolou seemed to understand a little, turned his head to confirm with the Tiger-Headed Flood Dragon: "..."

The Tiger-Headed Flood Dragon nodded vigorously, expressing deep agreement: "..."

Lord Lord Jingzhao stepped forward for the third time and shouted loudly: "..."

The "yin-yin" tinnitus suddenly disappeared, and Lord Lord Jingzhao's loud shout instantly rushed into his ears. He heard half of it—"Dui Seven"!

The tinnitus that had just receded was instantly hit by this "Dui Seven," and Liu Xiaolou helplessly discovered that a new tinnitus had started, this time "Seven-seven-seven-seven—"

Looking at Lu Yuanlang on the stage again, the alchemy furnace above his head had fallen back into his hands, and chaotic seven-colored smoke was pouring out of the furnace mouth. It looked like the alchemy had failed.

Lu Yuanlang stood up slowly, his face turning from white to green. He cupped his hands and retreated to the Mount Tianmu seating area.

At this point, Lord Lord Jingzhao, with his own strength, had defeated three top experts of the younger generation—Sun Zhenliu, Qu Xuan, and Lu Yuanlang—officially establishing his strength as the number one person of the younger generation in the Jingxiang cultivation world. His expression was indifferent, his gaze wandering over the arena, as if looking for whether there were any more opponents, or perhaps he wasn't looking for anyone at all, just feeling despondent?

Liu Xiaolou saw countless people on the silent Danqiu clapping and cheering. Some were shocked, some envious, some excited, and some had tears in their eyes... Watching all this, he felt a bit jealous, but he also knew he didn't even have the qualifications to be jealous, so he could only sigh to himself.

He also saw Su Jiuniang sitting motionless in her seat, eyes fixed on Lord Lord Jingzhao in the arena, hands supporting her chin, eyelashes blinking from time to time. So he pulled the Tiger-Headed Flood Dragon beside him and pointed at Jiuniang: "..."

Please visit the latest address.

The Tiger-Headed Flood Dragon watched for a while, couldn't bear to watch anymore, muttered something he didn't know, and shook his head as he left.

Seeing that its mood was even worse than his own, Liu Xiaolou felt much more comfortable. Once he felt comfortable, he used his true Qi to impact his eardrums, finally dispelling the tinnitus and returning a normal world to Liu Xiaolou.

This time, when Elder Cai announced it on the spot, Liu Xiaolou heard clearly: when the next void crack of the Danxia Cave Heaven opened, Lord Lord Jingzhao would enter for trials. According to the past frequency of opening, it was expected to open within a month. Therefore, Lord Lord Jingzhao decided to stay in the Danxia Cave Heaven to wait, accompanied by the Qingyu Sect's junior brother, Dongfang Yuying.

With this, the ceremony officially ended. Except for the inner disciples and deacons of the Danxia Sect, everyone else returned to their respective mountains, leaving the Danxia Cave Heaven one after another.

Su Zhi, the Su family members, and the various vassal sects did the same. Liu Xiaolou was quite reluctant to leave this place, lingering to take a few more breaths of spiritual energy and looking a few more times at Danqiu and the Lightning-Struck Banyan. By the time he queued to go out, the Su family had long since gone far away, and no one paid him any mind.

He was already used to this treatment and didn't take it to heart. When he escaped from the Cave Heaven, he looked back at the Longmen Bridge in front of him, looking at the four characters "Danxia Cave Heaven" written in a dragon-flying, phoenix-dancing style on the bridge, still feeling a bit dazed—could the experiences of these two days just be a dream?

A large head poked out from the stone basin of the Divine Skill Spring, and then a burly man rolled out—it was the Tiger-Headed Flood Dragon. This was the first time Liu Xiaolou had truly seen what it looked like to come out of a Cave Heaven, and he was very interested.

He stepped forward and patted the Tiger-Headed Flood Dragon: "Brother Brother Brother Hutou, why are you the last one? Didn't your people from Lion Ridge follow the Cai family and leave first?"

The Tiger-Headed Flood Dragon replied: "Isn't this specifically to stay behind and wait for Brother... Hey? Why are you touching me? Don't... haha... don't..."

"Don't move... don't move... don't move... looks like it's fine." Liu Xiaolou touched its lower body and confirmed: "The Cave Heaven portal won't cause problems for people. Hmm, interesting..."

The Tiger-Headed Flood Dragon was speechless: "Brother, you just came out yourself, don't you know if there are any problems?"

Liu Xiaolou laughed: "Of course I know, but I can't see what I look like when I come out, watching you come out like this... like this..."

The Tiger-Headed Flood Dragon slapped his hand away: "Not done yet? Brother, I'm specifically reminding you, don't forget our agreement..." Before he finished speaking, he laughed and ran away.

Standing behind was Su Wuniang. She frowned as she watched the departing Tiger-Headed Flood Dragon, then looked back at Liu Xiaolou, seemingly wanting to say something, but finally didn't say it, instead saying: "Why so slow?"

Liu Xiaolou apologized with a smile: "Just curious."

Su Wuniang said: "I'm not going back for now, I plan to cultivate in the Cave Heaven for two months. You go back early, they have already gone far."

After saying that, she turned and entered the Cave Heaven again without looking back.

Seeing that her attitude toward him had turned cold again, Liu Xiaolou sighed, thinking to himself that if he had known, he should have used some love incense on her last night!

Su Jiuniang was waiting for him halfway ahead. After seeing him, she asked: "Why did you just arrive? What ideas do you have about the Yin family's matter?"

Liu Xiaolou hadn't received the Tiger-Headed Flood Dragon's reply yet and didn't know if that path would work, so he could only say: "Don't worry, wait a bit longer, I'm thinking of a way here."

Su Jiuniang urged: "What way?"

Liu Xiaolou smiled bitterly: "Isn't that what I'm thinking about? How could it be that easy?"

Su Jiuniang said: "You'd better think of it now."

Liu Xiaolou was surprised: "Is it that urgent?"

Su Jiuniang was worried: "The matchmaker invited by the Yin family is right in front, blocking Father, and has already officially proposed marriage."
