”Increase the number of people. Notify me of any unusual moves, okay?” Li Chen said to Wu Shan.
Wu Shan responded. His hand unconsciously reached out to his chest. Although Li Chen softened his palm by quite a bit, he was still injured.
Li Chen thought for a moment, then took out a pill and gave it to Wu Shan. ”This is a healing pill. You were injured. I should have let you rest for a while, but it's critical right now. I can only let you suffer for now.”
Holding the bottle of pills, Wu Shan immediately became nervous. He thanked Li Chen repeatedly to show that it was his duty.
After Li Chen left, Wu Shan opened the pill in his hand and a fragrant aroma wafted out from the bottle. He was momentarily stunned, there were a total of five pills, each was smooth and bright, as if they contained limitless divine power, and this pill was obviously not an ordinary one. Wu Shan did not know why, but he felt a warmth in his heart.
At the latest, he would definitely bring someone with him every day. During this period of time, Wu Shan became more cautious, not allowing anyone the opportunity to get close to the mountain.
However, what Li Chen was most worried about had still come!
There really was an underworld clan at the location of the Red Cloud Mountain.
In the evening, Li Chen suddenly felt a signal from Wu Shan and quickly flew over. Not far away, an old man was confronting Wu Shan, saying that it was a confrontation and that the old man did not even mention anything about Wu Shan.
”Who are you?” This is where my Sword School is located, please stop! ”
Although this was what Wu Shan said, he was extremely anxious. The person in front of him was very strong, to the point that he felt that he was being suppressed.
The old man raised his head and said to himself, ”What is this? To think that there would be such a great deterrent force! Could it be that there really is a great treasure here? ”
Although Li Chen did everything he could to stop the news from spreading, many people at the foot of the Red Cloud Mountain said that there was a great treasure here. Even the sect that the old man belonged to was curious and sent him to investigate.
”I am a rogue cultivator from this batch of cultivators. I discovered that there seems to be a strange power here, so I came to investigate.” The old man seemed to be quite polite, but he was staring into the distance.
Actually, he couldn't clearly see what was ahead of him. A powerful aura was also coming from that direction, making him feel a bit apprehensive. He was now more and more determined to check out what was in front of him.
Wu Shan looked a little helpless and could only hope that Li Chen would hurry over. If this old man insisted on going in, they would all have to stay!
Fortunately, Li Chen arrived quickly.
The old man was slightly stunned when he saw Li Chen. They boasted to be a hidden aristocratic family. The young disciples of their family were not something those self-proclaimed geniuses in the secular world could compare to.
”You are the person in charge here?” Because he had never interacted with anyone else, the old man's voice sounded a little arrogant, and his eyes were quite unscrupulous.
Li Chen calmly accepted the old man's gaze while Wu Shan whispered in his ear. Only then did Li Chen look at the old man. Rogue cultivator? From the way the old man was dressed, he didn't seem like a rogue cultivator. If it wasn't for the fact that he didn't know about the hidden aristocratic families, he definitely wouldn't have guessed that the other person's identity was that great.
His gaze turned serious as he smiled, ”Senior, are you from there?”
He didn't reply to the old man's words, but this could be considered a form of tacit approval. On the other hand, the old man had a strange expression on his face as he looked at Li Chen and thought in his heart, ”Where did he say I am from?” Could he be talking about a hidden aristocratic family? However, as a secular disciple, how could he know about the hidden aristocratic families' situation?
Looking at the elder's expression, Li Chen understood what was going on. He smiled and said, ”Senior, if you don't tell me why, there is no reason for the Sword School to welcome you.”
The old man didn't know the other words, but the old man understood them. Li Chen wanted him to leave!
With that, the old man's expression turned cold. ”You little brat, what are you saying? What's here and there? This old man is a rogue cultivator, I can go anywhere I want, could it be that you want to stop me? ”
”If that's really the case, then of course Li Chen won't care about Senior's path. However, if Senior wants to enter this mountain, then no matter what, junior must block your way.” Li Chen wasn't scared by the old man's words. Instead, he spoke indifferently.
He had made up his mind that even if it was the people from a hidden family, he would make them all stay, because no one knew what was inside the mountain, and once Lei Tian came, he would bring the dragon corpse back to the sword sect. At most, he would open the great array and be trapped for ten or eight years, and then, he would only say that the dragon corpse had already been consumed.
He had not expected the dragon corpse's value to be so high, especially the Dragon Essence Source Spirit. Even with a sip, it would allow a Martial King to easily step into the Martial Saint realm. Furthermore, what Li Chen received was not a mouthful, but a lot! Why didn't it make people's eyes red?
Under normal circumstances, how many people could reach the Martial Saint realm?
Li Chen recalled that in the family's Martial Tower, there was the appearance of a senior from the family. When he steps into the Martial Saint Stage, he will definitely return.
However, he still had to first deal with this' big brother 'in front of him. Let's talk about it when the trouble is solved!
Hearing Li Chen's words, the old man immediately became angry, and his eyes became fierce: ”You little brat, you are really stubborn! However, in front of this old man, it's better to restrain myself! ”
Just at that moment, a powerful spiritual force burst out from the old man's body, pressing down towards Li Chen like an avalanche.
