Chapter 360

But thinking of the three before him as elders with profound, unfathomable cultivation,

he suddenly didn't know how to speak.

He sighed inwardly.

He patted her shoulder in a comforting manner.

"Let's go."

He glanced at Yin Tianxue.

Senior Dugu Jian said coolly.

The moment he finished speaking,

before Yin Tianxue could lead the way,

Zhang Daoling chuckled softly beside him and pulled out a token, tossing it to Chi Meng.

"The Great Dragon Chief isn't someone you can just meet whenever you want."

"Take my token and find the Fifth Dragon Chief, Li Taibai."

"If you can persuade him,"

"perhaps you'll still have a chance to meet the Great Dragon Chief."

At these words,

Chi Meng, who had just moments before looked utterly despondent,

suddenly trembled all over.

She snapped her head up to stare at him.

She snatched the token, symbol of Zhang Daoling's position as Sixth Dragon Chief.

She thanked him with eyes full of gratitude and joy.

"Thank you, Elder! Thank you, Elder!"

As she spoke,

Chi Meng clutched the token tightly.

As if afraid it might be taken back.

"Alright, we're leaving. Do as you please."

Zhang Daoling waved his hand.

He didn't take it seriously at all.

Yet deep in his eyes,

a faint, almost imperceptible meaning flickered.

"Thank you, Elder, for your help. Your great kindness, Chi Meng will never forget."

She bowed deeply.

Chi Meng, her hope reignited,

carefully tucked the token away as if it were a precious treasure.

Without another word,

she left with light steps.

Watching her retreating figure,

Senior Dugu Qiubai seemed to recall something.

He gave Zhang Daoling a long, meaningful look and teased,

"Damn, I thought only Li Taibai would pull such a stunt."

"Who'd have thought, Zhang Daoling, with your honest face, you've gone corrupt too!!"

He knew exactly what he meant.

Zhang Daoling's lips twitched slightly.

He shrugged, feigning calm.

"No, it's just that little girl seemed interesting."

"Maybe the Great Dragon Chief would like her."

At these words,

Senior Dugu Jian, who had only recently joined and had been utterly confused by Zhang Daoling's actions,

suddenly understood.

He stroked his beard.

He mused inwardly.

'Judging by this, does the Great Dragon Chief have a fondness for women?'

Though he couldn't fathom how the Great Dragon Chief, who once said "When there are no women in the heart, the sword becomes divine," could be drawn to women,

since both Senior Dugu Qiubai and Zhang Daoling thought so,

it must be true.

Fortunately, Ximen Wudi didn't know what he was thinking right now.

Otherwise,

he would surely spit out a mouthful of old blood and furiously protest.

He did have a fondness for women, true.

But when had he ever acted like a lust-crazed lecher?!

And yet,

You are one of the Seven Dragon Heads of the Qinglong Society.

How can you run a pimp operation so skillfully?!

Where is your sense of shame?

"Alright, let's hurry up and finish the mission."

Looking at Senior Dugu Qiubai's suspicious gaze.

And Senior Dugu Jian's contemplative expression.

Zhang Daoling rolled his eyes, hurriedly cutting off their wild guesses, and urged impatiently.

Having said that.

He also shot a glance at Yin Tianxue.

Signaling her to lead the way quickly.

The latter, seeing this.

Although she felt what they said was a bit strange.

She didn't think much of it.

And hurried off in the direction she had come from.

Seeing this.

Senior Dugu Qiubai and the other two followed.

At the same time.

Off the coast of Yunzhou.

Zhang Sanfeng, who had been unable to find an island for half a month now.

Was sitting at the bow of the ship with a long, troubled face.

He couldn't help muttering softly to himself.

"Sigh~ when will days like these ever end?"

"Eating seafood every meal, I'm nearly sick of it."

"If I'd known the Water God Isle was this hard to find, I should have swapped with that fellow Li Taibai back then."

"With his restless temperament, if he'd been stuck here this long, he probably wouldn't have held it together, right?"

Although after breaking through to the Earthly Immortal Realm, one can go three months without eating.

That was only during closed-door cultivation.

Under normal circumstances.

Even if he didn't eat, he wouldn't go hungry.
