"From now on, you should not leave the mountain peak in the near future."

Back on the mountain, Shang Yanting pinched the raccoon's ears and repeatedly gave her instructions.

Why?

He'd only gone to Chixiao Peak once, and he'd become tense and paranoid. (M.cascoo.net)

Jia Xitong was somewhat confused.

"The Wanqi tribe may want to harm you."

Once a certain idea starts to emerge, you'll find yourself thinking about it more and more.

Shang Yanting felt that his dreams should serve as warnings, but they still deviated somewhat from reality.

No one knows his dragon bloodline; the only one with dragon characteristics is Xitong. No matter what, the Wanqi clan will eventually set their sights on Xitong.

Then what?

Take her dragon scales, dig out her dragon horns.

Shang Yanting looked at Jia Xitong, who knew nothing, and then told her, "The Wanqi Clan is refining a magical artifact, which requires rare and precious materials, such as dragon scales and dragon horns."

They've already set their sights on you.

Do you want to be captured by them and have your scales and horns harvested?

Upon hearing this, Jia Xitong couldn't help but touch her head. "Really? How did you know?"

"Xie Chongshan of Duanming Peak, Huo Rui discovered this person by chance. He is a weapon refiner who is helping the Wanqi Clan forge a magical weapon called Dragon Roar Slash."

Shang Yanting said, "This person is extremely skilled at using magical beasts to forge weapons. If he is really captured, he may be skinned and have his bones removed, not just have his dragon scales and horns taken."

hiss!

It's true what they say, "When the forest is big, all sorts of perverts can be found."

Jia Xitong was startled when she heard this, "But I still have to go to class, and I still have to deliver the talismans to Liang Baoyu and the others."

"Have Niu Chuanchuan deliver the talisman for you. As for your students... bring them to Fengzhong for classes."

Shang Yanting arranged everything perfectly for her.

She had everything arranged.

but……

"Honey, what about you?"

Jia Xitong looked at him.

He was merely a half-bear with some dragon blood, while Shang Yanting was a true dragon. In terms of bloodline purity, he seemed to be a bit more dangerous.

"I?"

Shang Yanting wanted to laugh when he heard this, but then he suddenly felt a pang of sadness when he thought of his tragic self in the premonition dream.

He couldn't help but bury his face in the raccoon's fluffy body and answered in a muffled voice, "Have you forgotten that they don't know who I am?"

Besides, I don't have horns.

Is it something to be proud of to not have horns?

Only newborn, immature dragons don't have horns; she has horns, okay?

Jia Xitong snorted, then slowly took out two new communication talismans from her pocket.

“I do,” Shang Yanting said, looking at her.

"I know you have one, but what if you encounter danger outside? What if you encounter danger and your communication talisman breaks down or is taken away?"

It's always good to have a spare one!

Shang Yanting: "What about the other one?"

"I'll find an opportunity to give Aunt Haifeng a gift."

Jia Xitong sighed as she recalled Huo Rui's daily reports on the Wanqi clan's movements. "If you want to deal with the Wanqi family, you definitely need to maintain good relations with the other three clans."

Aunt Haifeng is the one we're closest to. Give her this card; if you're in danger, call her first.

ah?

Shang Yanting was momentarily stunned.

"Please, you don't want a bunch of cultivators at or below the Martial Grandmaster level inside the peak to save you, do you?"

Jia Xitong noticed that he was sometimes a little silly. "If Aunt Haifeng doesn't come, just call Uncle Karl. Uncle Karl is the most righteous person, and he has more than a dozen powerful backers with strong backgrounds."

Anyone who randomly shakes their finger is better than the person who calls themselves "Feng".

Jia Xitong used all her cleverness to call for backup.

"knew."

The raccoon's attention and care improved his mood, which had been affected by the dream.

Shang Yanting put away the talisman, hugged the raccoon and kissed her furry face twice, then stood up and left with light steps, leaving Jia Xitong and the raccoon stunned on the soft couch.

He kissed her.

Muamuamua kissed my cheek three times!

Emma, ​​why wasn't she in human form back then?!

Frustrated, Jia Xitong scratched at the soft cushion with her paws, feeling as if she had earned ten million but lost a hundred million.

What a great opportunity to get a bargain!

Could you come back and let her turn back into human form so we can kiss again?!

"Awooo—"

The raccoon howled in grief and indignation.

On the other side

The five members of the "Salted Fish" group felt that their path to education was like a dream.

They just wanted to easily earn some credits, so they chose the talisman course, which had the lowest requirements among the elective courses.

Because he didn't want to attend class, he stayed in Ms. Tong's classroom even after skipping class multiple times.

Because he didn't want to do his homework, and even arrogantly threatened his teacher, he almost ended his relationship with Teacher Tong.

Then……

They became Teacher Tong's only five disciples.

Their middle fingers developed calluses from writing a thousand talismans every day.

Today, they were even taken to Teacher Tong's residence, which was also their first time stepping onto the private mountain peak that was said to be accessible only to advanced disciples of the academy.

"Wow, I'm really amazing!"

As Gao Xiang looked at the approaching mountain peak, he felt a strange feeling. "My brother hasn't even entered yet after becoming a disciple of a peak master, but I've already arrived."

Liu Tianhua glanced at him and said, "Save your breath. We're different here. Your brother is a disciple of the peak master, while we're just going to class."

It's not like whoever has been here is superior.

"Anyway, I've been to all these kinds of mountains before, so I guess I've broadened my horizons."

Gao Xiang didn't care at all, and was even quite confident, "After all, I'm already very outstanding, I have to leave a way out for my brother."

Upon hearing this, Gou You, the oldest among them, looked at Gao Xiang. He had only lost three pounds in a month under Teacher Tong's strict discipline; the saying "a relaxed mind leads to weight gain" wasn't entirely unfounded.

Needless to say, they were all very excited to be going to the Da Neng Mountain Range, which their classmates had been praising as incredible, for the first time. The image of that heavenly paradise, which was surrounded by spiritual energy all year round, had already appeared in their minds.

Until we entered the mountain peak.

There wasn't the overwhelming, misty spiritual energy they had imagined. The architecture... was just modeled after the academy, nothing new or unique.

The five people followed behind Huo Rui, some even wondering if they had come to the wrong place.

The legendary mountain peak is nothing special.

"Chirp chirp chirp!"

A series of soft chirping sounds came from the forest, and a brightly colored, sharp-beaked monster ran towards them.

The five were startled by this sight, and couldn't help but draw their weapons in the face of this monster that was only slightly larger than a rooster.

To everyone's surprise, it simply stopped in front of the five people, glanced at them with its beady black eyes, paused for a moment, and then continued chirping.

"Iron Egg Flower!"

Old Nineteen followed behind it, and with his extensive experience, he grabbed it, tucked it under his arm, and looked at the five people huddled together.

"Nephew, who are these young men?"

"Uncle-Master, who are they?"
