Chapter 67: The Trouble Xiao Chen Brought, a Farce

~10 min read 1,944 words

On Dragon Island, according to regional division, there are three areas in total: the east is the Dragon Clan Holy Mountain, the west is the vast snow mountain, and the middle is a boundless Death Bone Sea.

Human-shaped skeletons, giant bird dry bones, fierce beast bones, and even the remains of the Dragon Clan.

In the boundless night, standing outside the Death Bone Sea and gazing at the endless expanse of 'white snow,' Xiao Chen felt a chilling cold envelop his heart, involuntarily producing a shudder from deep within, feeling ill at ease all over.

As a Mundane Transcendence cultivator, the mere darkness naturally did not affect his vision, so he could clearly see the ferocious appearance of each skeleton in the bone sea, discerning their kinds.

After a moment, Xiao Chen subconsciously turned his gaze to the black-robed figure beside him who was carefully examining the Death Bone Sea, forced a smile onto his face, showing an expression uglier than crying, and softly said, 'Big Brother Wind, are you sure you want to enter this Death Bone Sea? Should you reconsider?'

At least wait until daytime, after the sun rises, before entering!

In that case, it would also seem a bit safer.

Feeling the pervasive chilling killing intent between heaven and earth, Xiao Chen always felt that if they just went in like that, they themselves would likely become part of that bone sea, adding a few more human skeletons to it.

"Rest assured."

Feng Yi's eyes flickered with a golden hue as he glanced at the endless bone sea before him, casually saying, 'I indeed need to enter the bone sea, but not now; I still need to wait a while.'

"Wait a while?"

Xiao Chen couldn't help but sigh in relief, then curiously asked, 'Big Brother Wind, when do you plan to wait until?'

At this moment, Feng Yi withdrew his gaze from gazing into the depths of the bone sea, looked at Xiao Chen, and said, 'Brother Xiao, do you know what day today is?'

Before his words even faded, Feng Yi's heart stirred, and he suddenly looked toward the nearby forest, softly saying, 'Brother Xiao, it seems your time on Dragon Island has been quite eventful!'

"What does that mean?"

That thought rose in his mind, and Xiao Chen followed Feng Yi's gaze toward the distant forest, but discovered nothing.

Before he could say anything, a faint voice came from beside his ear: 'Just wait a moment and you'll know.'

"Wait a moment."

A hint of doubt appeared on Xiao Chen's face, but he didn't say more, merely staring intently at the distant forest.

After a moment, his heart stirred, and he sensed that several unfamiliar auras had suddenly appeared in the forest.

Moreover, as time passed, the number of auras grew, reaching over a hundred in a short while and still increasing.

"Someone's coming."

That thought rose in his mind, the forest trembled, and figures appeared one after another before Xiao Chen.

"Yan Qingcheng, Kai Luo, Wang Tong."

Familiar figures with whom he had previous grudges appeared, and Xiao Chen instantly understood what was going on.

These people were disciples of various major powers from the Eternal Life Continent, who had come to Dragon Island through special means, sent by those powers to subdue the Companion Dragon King.

However, seeing the crowd grow ever larger, soon reaching several hundred people, Xiao Chen couldn't help but show a hint of doubt.

Yan Qingcheng and the others, with whom he had prior grudges, coming here was understandable, but many of the others he didn't even know—how had they all gathered here?

Before Xiao Chen's thought could fully settle, shouts suddenly erupted from the crowd:

"Xiao Chen, the Companion Dragon King on Dragon Island belongs to everyone!"

"Yes, Xiao Chen, hand over the Companion Dragon King!"

"Xiao Chen, the Companion Dragon King shall reside with the virtuous!"

"Xiao Chen, don't delude yourself into thinking you can monopolize the Companion Dragon King!"

Hearing the voices continuously ringing from the crowd, Xiao Chen instinctively glanced at the two young dragons beside him, immediately understood what was happening, and was so angry he laughed.

It turns out they were coveting these two Companion Dragon Kings!

No wonder so many people I didn't even know before have come!

But are these people here to seek death?

He glanced at the two figures beside him, and this thought unconsciously rose in his mind.

His thoughts turning, Xiao Chen curled the corner of his mouth, stepped forward several paces, looked at the crowd with an arrogant expression, and scornfully said, 'Just you bunch of good-for-nothings, still wanting to take the Companion Dragon King from my hands? You're overestimating yourselves—the Dragon King is right here; if you have the ability, come and get it, heh!'

His scornful laugh rang out, silencing the entire scene.

No one expected Xiao Chen to be so arrogant today.

You have to know there are hundreds of people here, all of them outstanding youths of their generation.

After a moment, the crowd finally reacted, and voices suddenly rang out from within:

"Too arrogant!"

"Charge, seize the Companion Dragon King"

"Everyone rush him together; even if he's stronger, how many can he stop?!"

As the voices fell, looking at the two Companion Dragon Kings beside Xiao Chen, after a brief silence, someone in the crowd could no longer stay seated.

As disciples of various major powers, many youths in the crowd are actually not stupid; they realize that today's affair is someone secretly colluding, seeking an opportunity to deal with Xiao Chen.

However, they don't care at all whether this scene before them is someone else's scheme.

At least the Companion Dragon Kings beside Xiao Chen are real; as long as they can seize the Companion Dragon King by taking advantage of the situation, they're willing to play the fool and be used as pawns by those behind the scenes.

One, two, three.

Once the first person stepped forward, a second followed; in the blink of an eye, dozens surged out of the crowd toward Xiao Chen, though their gazes were mainly fixed on those two Companion Dragon Kings.

Whoosh

Seeing the many figures rushing toward him, Xiao Chen did not advance but instead instantly retreated a few steps, returning to Feng Yi's side, a somewhat punch-worthy smile on his face as he said, 'Big Brother Wind, these people actually dare to covet Little Purple and Little Black—just asking for death; you won't give them a taste of their own medicine?'

Although with his current strength he could actually barely handle those who rushed out.

But Xiao Chen also vaguely guessed that behind this scene there must be some organization, wanting to take the opportunity to deal with him.

Moreover, among the crowd there might not lack youths who could match him in strength.

Now that he has Big Brother Wind's thick thigh by his side, if he doesn't cling to it now, when will he?

Glancing at Xiao Chen, Feng Yi couldn't help but shake his head, though he didn't say anything more, his gaze indifferent as he looked toward the distant crowd.

On the other side, seeing Xiao Chen's action, the crowd couldn't help but stare in surprise.

However, before they could react, their field of vision was instantly occupied by a pair of indifferent golden eyes, and they felt an indescribable pressure rise from their hearts, instantly losing the ability to think, their minds going blank, leaving only an instinctive tremor.

Plop

Plop

Sounds of falling to the ground rang out one after another, and in the blink of an eye, out of the hundreds of people around, only a few still barely held themselves up, while the rest all knelt down in terror.

Even those figures barely standing were all staring with faces full of shock at the black-robed figure beside Xiao Chen, their eyes still holding an indescribable fear.

"Strong one!"

"A terrifyingly strong being far beyond anyone's imagination!"

"A single glance can render hundreds powerless—what a terrifying existence!"

"No wonder Xiao Chen is so arrogant today—it turns out someone is backing him!"

This was the thought that spontaneously rose in everyone's hearts, after which endless regret and fear welled up.

"Isn't there supposed to be a seal on Dragon Island? How could such a terrifyingly strong being appear!"

In the depths of the forest, a man wielding a black longsword, his whole body shrouded in black mist, suddenly let out a muffled groan, his eyes showing undisguised fear as he whispered, "What a terrifyingly strong person!"

Before the Death Bone Sea, Xiao Chen also stared blankly at the scene before him.

He thought Brother Feng could handle these people, but he didn't expect it to be so easy.

Merely a single glance actually rendered hundreds of young experts powerless, completely overturning his understanding.

Meanwhile, Feng Yi watched the scene, a hint of thoughtfulness in his eyes, silently thinking: "Intimidation truly is a great tool for clearing out fodder, especially after incorporating Dragon Might—it's indeed very convenient to use!"

Whoosh

Just then, a white light streaked across the sky and landed not far from Feng Yi and the others—it was a little heavenly horse whose whole body was as white as jade.

And upon the Little Heavenly Horse sat a graceful figure veiled in light gauze.

"Zhao Lin'er!"

Seeing that figure, Xiao Chen's eyes flashed with a cold light as he said coldly, "You actually dare to show up!"

Zhao Lin'er stepped down from the Little Heavenly Horse, but instead of paying attention to Xiao Chen, she directly looked at Feng Yi and Lan Nou, performing a respectful salute and saying, "Zhao Lin'er of the Nine Provinces, greetings to the Goddess, greetings to the Senior God Calculation Origin!"

???

Hearing Zhao Lin'er's address, Feng Yi's mind filled with a string of question marks.

What the heck is a God Calculation Origin?

The next moment, sensing Zhao Lin'er's faint outward mental fluctuations, Feng Yi couldn't help but feel a toothache.

When I traveled the Nine Provinces, in order to study how to accommodate Fuxi's status, I indeed once worked as a fortune-teller for a while.

However, back then I was impersonating Fuxi, without giving myself a title like "Fuxi in the World"—what the heck is this God Calculation Origin?

No wonder I later found it useless!

However, although he complained inwardly, Feng Yi's expression didn't change much; he simply gave a bland nod, then stopped paying attention to her and instead looked once more toward the Boundless Bone Sea.

As for Xiao Chen's grudge with the other party, Xiao Chen himself will settle it, so Feng Yi naturally couldn't be bothered to care.

The moment he turned around, his mind subconsciously raised a thought: "I wonder whether the Human Emperor's position helps with accommodating Fuxi's status!"

However, the next moment, Feng Yi pressed that thought deep down, looked toward the Boundless Bone Sea that was about to undergo a huge change, and said softly, "Finally, it's here!"

"What's coming?"

Hearing Feng Yi's words, Xiao Chen temporarily withdrew his attention from Zhao Lin'er, and a thought subconsciously arose in his mind.

Woo

Before his thought could fully rise, a sound of gloomy wind howling rang out, carrying endless gloom and terror, making everyone's hearts turn cold.

Rumble

The next moment, a heaven-shaking roar suddenly rang out, and an ominous, gloomy black thunderbolt fell, reflecting a strange dead city deep in the Bone Sea.

Xiao Chen subconsciously looked toward the depths of the Boundless Bone Sea, gazing at that ancient city, his face showing an undisguised look of shock.
