“Roar~!”
A dark-colored demonic beast charged out.
Luo Tian was leading the way.
His body leaned away before sticking close to the demonic beast’s body. He flipped his right palm, causing a powerful energy to condense before smashing out.
“Bang~!”
The strike penetrated into the demonic beast’s body, instantly killing it.
“Big brother Luo Tian is so awesome! Big brother Luo Tian is so awesome!”
Qin Changtian was leaping about while clapping his hands. He then started licking his lips and asked happily: “Big brother Luo Tian, it’s about time for a meal now, right?”
“Huh?”
“Didn’t we just eat? How come you’re hungry again?” Luo Tian asked with a smile. He then turned towards Qin San and the evil-looking youth. They both looked back with an innocent but a clear “I’m very hungry” look.
Luo Tian looked up at the sky.
He then said with a smile: “Fine, I will make a slightly more sumptuous dinner for you all.”
“Little Xie!” (Little Evil)
“Open up this demonic beast and clean the innards.” Luo Tian then continued directing: “Boss Qin, gather some extra dry wood. We might have to stay here overnight.”
Little Xie didn’t say a word and just picked up the demonic beast Luo Tian killed and walked towards a stream.
Qin San gave Qin Changtian a glance before busying himself with his task.
Not long after…
Luo Tian set up a bonfire and started grilling the demonic beast’s meat while humming the “Little Barbeque” tune. “♫ You are my little barbeque meat, the love I have for you is endless… ♫”
“Big brother, is that the secret of grilling meat?”
“It sounds pretty powerful.”
“Gulp~!”
Qin Changtian was drooling while he was talking. His eyes couldn’t help start shining when he saw the oil dripping and sizzling from the meats. It wasn’t just him because even Qin San and Little Xie were the same. The most prominent was Little Xie because he lost his evil looks and only had a “this daddy is going to eat 100 jins worth” kind of look.
“Gurgle~!”
“Gurgle~!”
Luo Tian started chuckling when he heard the stomach of those two growling. When he was grilling the meat, he couldn’t help thinking of Fatty Lei and the others. He said to himself: “I wonder how they’re doing now? I wonder if Fatty Lei and Xuan Yuanyi are back from the demon race territories yet?”
The second day after Luo Tian left Heavenly Sword City…
Those two left Heavenly Sword City and went together to the territories of the Red River Demon Race.
Feng Lei wanted to find his roots!
He wanted to know who he was and what kind of powerful demonic beast was inside his body.
Could he really be what Xuan Yuanyi said, that he was the ancestor of all demons?
Luo Tian’s eyes showed he was missing them.
Apart from Fatty Lei, there was An Chunchun, Tang Tang, Qin Yue’er, and the rest. Nearly one year has passed already so who knows how they’re all doing? Has An Chunchun become prettier? Has the Great Tang Dynasty recovered yet?
There was also Li Xue’er!
Luo Tian stared up at the starry sky and felt like she was close by. His heart became warm as he said internally: “Xue’er, wait for me. I will not let you suffer any more injustice soon. This, I promise you!”
Qin Changtian noticed the longing in Luo Tian’s eyes and asked: “Big brother Luo Tian, who are you thinking of?”
Luo Tian recovered his expression and gently caressed Qin Changtian’s head. He then replied: “Many people.”
Right after that…
He tore off a piece of charred meat from the rack and put it onto a large leaf. He gave it to Qin Changtian and said: “Go ahead and eat.”
Not long after…
There were only bones left from the large demonic beast. Luo Tian really didn’t understand how so much meat could be eaten like that. One’s stomach is only that big, so how can it fit over 100 jins of stuff?
Especially that Little Xie…
That guy looks like he hadn’t eaten anything for the past eight lives!
Late at night.
There would be occasional roars by a demonic beast deep inside the forest.
Qin Changtian was sleeping in the embrace of Qin San. He was in a deep sleep and would sometimes reveal a faint smile. Qin San used his outer clothing and covered him with it. He revealed a kind smile himself and muttered: “This is probably the best sleep he has ever gotten this past half a month.”
Qin San looked over at Luo Tian and said: “Thank you both. If it weren’t for you two, I really wouldn’t know what to do. Most likely both of us would be already dead by now.”
While saying this…
Qin San chuckled bitterly before looking at Luo Tian and asking: “You shouldn’t be a citizen of Heaven Opening City. Since you can kill Ji Ao who’s at the Profound Saint rank, I believe your cultivation should have already reached a terrifying realm. I really want to know what’s the reason for you to come to Heaven Opening City?”
Very direct.
This was also a question he had wanted to ask for a long time.
During this period of contact, Qin San had lowered his guard somewhat.
But…
He wanted to know why Luo Tian would appear here and coincidentally appear by his side.
Coincidence?
There was no such coincidence in this world.
It was naturally not a coincidence for Luo Tian to meet him. If Qin San didn’t have a yellow ! floating above his head, he wouldn’t have walked over and agreed to be hired so easily.
Luo Tian didn’t reveal the whole truth and replied: “For a mission, for myself, and for saving a person!”
He didn’t exactly lie to Qin San.
He was truly here for the quest and to save someone.
Little Xie looked at Luo Tian and was in thought for a brief moment. He then said: “You’re someone from the immortal sects.”
Luo Tian nodded and didn’t deny it. “I am a disciple of Mount Hua Immortal Sect, but most likely I will no longer be one very soon. Heh heh…”
When thinking of Mount Hua Immortal Sect, Luo Tian could only describe his emotions as “heh heh.”
Qin San’s expression turned gloomy and unconsciously clenched his fists. He then said: “The Qin family was destroyed because Ji Tongtian had the help of the four great immortal sects. Even if I turn into a ghost, I will not let those four off.”
One slash per person.
So many Qin family members were killed by their hands.
Qin San would often dream of the bloody scenes.
Luo Tian’s gaze tightened and said internally: “There are indeed other immortal sects inside Heaven Opening City.”
Luo Tian then asked: “Why did the four great immortal sects go against your Qin family? What do they want from you? Immortal sects usually have abundant resources and can get whatever they want. Why would they collaborate with Heaven Opening City to deal with your Qin family? I still haven’t been able to figure that out yet.”
Qin San smiled bitterly and said: “For what? All for the entrance location to the Sky Palace Divine race; all for the divine dragon blood essence that is located inside the Sky Palace Divine race whereabouts. No matter how abundant in resources an immortal sect has, they still lack the attraction of a dragon’s blood essence.”
“Crack~!”
While hearing this…
Little Xie unconsciously clenched his teeth tightly.
From the corner of Luo Tian’s eyes, he noticed Little Xie had an icy intent from his expression. This kind of icy intent was formed by a special killing intent. He then thought to himself: “His emotions became intense once he heard about the divine dragon’s blood essence, so could he be somehow connected with the Sky Palace Divine race?”
When Qin San was done, he looked at Luo Tian in seriousness and asked: “Did you come here for the Sky Palace Divine Race entrance location as well?”
“Uh…”
Luo Tian didn’t know how to reply. Since their conversation had reached such a point, he felt that there was no longer any need to hide it anymore. He directly acknowledged: “Yes.”
“Humph~!”
“I knew there was no one good from those immortal sects.”
“Everyone is coming for the secret that us dragon protector clan has protected.” Qin San’s expression changed as he protected Qin Changtian who was still asleep. His eyes glared at Luo Tian while his originally lowered guard instantly shot back up.
Luo Tian’s mind tightened as he couldn’t bother with this issue anymore. He loudly shouted: “Watch out!”
The assassins were here!
