Back street, in the yard of blacksmith Zhang.
"You mean, the Ice Flame Dragon was killed by Chen Xiao?"
Blacksmith Zhang looked at his disciple and asked.
"Yes."
Zhang San nodded.
"He took both the body and the crystal core away?"
Blacksmith Zhang asked again.
"No, he didn't want it. He said he killed the Ice Flame Dragon just to get rid of harm to the people."
Zhang San shook his head.
"To eliminate harm for the people?"
Blacksmith Zhang looked strange.
"And then? He really didn't want it?"
"I really didn't want it. He left."
Zhang San scratched his head when he said this.
"But something went wrong with the Ice Flame Dragon's body. It decayed very quickly, and the crystal core was not found."
"The body is decayed? The crystal core is gone?"
Blacksmith Zhang was stunned for a moment, thought about it, and couldn't help laughing.
"Just tell me, it's fine, why would he not want it."
"What do you mean? Are you saying that the Ice Flame Dragon's corruption is related to Chen Xiao?"
Zhang San asked.
"That's what the old guy from Shanhai Tower said at the time, but Chen Xiao really didn't do anything."
"It must be related to him, otherwise why would he not want it."
Blacksmith Zhang shook his head.
"Maybe there is something that you guys haven't figured out."
"Well, I think he's quite righteous."
Zhang San frowned.
"So that's what happened."
"Haha, taking the Ice Flame Dragon doesn't mean it's unjust... If a large number of sea monsters really come to attack, won't you also protect Xuanyuan Town?"
Blacksmith Zhang laughed.
"Um."
Zhang San nodded.
"Okay, let's go for the ironwork, don't go to Dihai for now..."
Blacksmith Zhang said.
"Yes, Master."
After Zhang San finished speaking, he went into the side room.
"decay……"
Blacksmith Zhang narrowed his eyes, guessing Xiao Chen's method.
It is not easy to do this under the eyes of so many powerful people.
Especially since the Ghost King is still here, it is even more difficult to hide it from him.
"The Ice Flame Dragon is here... soon, right?"
Blacksmith Zhang muttered something, picked up the tea and drank it in one gulp.
…
On the other side, Xiao Chen brought Wang Pingbei to the best restaurant in Xuanyuan Town.
"Brother Chen, didn't you say you would find time?"
Wang Pingbei asked.
"Yeah, but then I thought, this Ice Flame Dragon's tail must be delicious, so I can't wait."
Xiao Chen nodded.
"Anyway, there's nothing to do right now, so let's just come and eat."
"All right."
Wang Pingbei nodded.
"My two lords..."
The waiter came up and served us.
"We brought our own ingredients and asked your best chef to prepare them for us... price is not an issue."
Xiao Chen said directly.
"no problem."
The waiter nodded.
"Gentlemen, please go upstairs."
"good."
After going upstairs, the waiter called the cook over.
Xiao Chen’s mind entered the bone ring and cut off a piece of the Ice Flame Dragon’s tail.
The Ice Flame Dragon was so big that even though its tail was only broken off, it was still about two meters long.
Once, it was simply impossible to eat.
"That's it."
Xiao Chen took out the cut piece of tail from the bone ring.
"Isn't this strange beast very powerful?"
The cook was quite experienced and said immediately.
"Yeah, it's pretty powerful. I just killed it in the Imperial Sea...Have you heard of the Ice Flame Dragon? This is its tail."
Xiao Chen nodded.
"Ice Flame Dragon? I seem to have heard my grandfather mention it. He said it was a great beast from the depths of the Emperor Sea..."
The cook was even more surprised.
"It's coming to the Imperial Sea too?"
"Um."
Xiao Chen nodded. It seemed that this cook was capable, at least he had heard of him.
"Can we do it now?"
"Yes, leave it to me."
The chef looked excited, this was top quality food.
As a top chef, the excitement he gets from seeing top-quality ingredients is almost the same as a man seeing a stunning beauty.
"Haha, let me try your cooking skills then."
Xiao Chen smiled.
"Okay, just wait."
The cook responded and walked away with a large piece of tail.
Just when Xiao Chen was ordering another dish, the Ghost King came in from outside.
"Why are you here?"
Xiao Chen was a little surprised.
"Why, you're not welcome?"
The Ghost King said as he sat down.
“…”
Xiao Chen was speechless. I didn’t say welcome, why did you sit down?
"Senior, how did you know we were here?"
"Now you, Chen Xiao, are a celebrity. Just ask around and you'll know."
The Ghost King poured himself a cup of tea and took a sip.
"It's not even evening yet, and you're already preparing for dinner? What delicious food are you going to eat?"
"Haha, since you are here, let's taste... the Ice Flame Dragon's tail together."
Xiao Chen smiled.
"I've given it to the cook and it will be ready soon."
"The tail of the Ice Flame Dragon? What a good thing."
The Ghost King's eyes lit up and he looked at Xiao Chen.
"The Ice Flame Dragon is decaying. Does it have anything to do with you? You even took its tail away. There's no reason why you wouldn't want such a big carcass."
"What does it have to do with me? I'm just not greedy."
How could Xiao Chen admit it? He just shook his head.
"I was thinking I only need a piece of the tail, and the rest will be for you... Senior, have you finished dividing it? What did you get? Why don't you take it out and let the cook cook it?"
"I got nothing..."
Seeing that Xiao Chen was still pretending to be stupid, the Ghost King couldn't help but swear.
"Um?"
Xiao Chen's face was full of surprise.
"Senior, what did you get? The Ice Flame Dragon's fart?"
"What nonsense..."
The Ghost King's face darkened.
"The corpse has decayed and has no value at all... and the crystal core is gone too."
"how so?"
Xiao Chen frowned.
"But what did Shanhailou do? Yes, that must be it. I didn't give it to them, so they had bad intentions and thought, 'If we can't get it, we can't let others get it.' So they destroyed the body of the Ice Flame Dragon."
“…”
The Ghost King was speechless. How could this be put on Shanhai Tower?
"Good fellow, you and Shanhailou are really mortal enemies. After you left, they said it was you who did it... Now, you say it was them who did it."
"What? They're still crying thief? This is really too much."
Xiao Chen patted the table.
"Senior, please don't believe what they say."
"Okay, okay, I don't believe you either."
The Ghost King shook his head helplessly and stopped talking about the Ice Flame Dragon.
He finally realized that this guy would definitely not admit it.
"That old guy asked me to tell you something, saying that Shanhailou will not let you go."
"Heh, you sound like I would let Shanhailou go."
Xiao Chen sneered.
“…”
The Ghost King looked at Xiao Chen. Was he serious?
In Tianwai Tian, few people dare to say this.
That’s one of the second floors, and it’s one of the most powerful forces in the world!
"Senior, what's the old guy's name?"
Xiao Chen thought about it and asked.
"Lu Xuelin."
The Ghost King replied.
"He has been here in Xuanyuan Town. He is considered the person in charge."
"Oh, then it seems that there is no status, otherwise who would come here."
Xiao Chen despised.
"Look at Gongsun Zhen, he is a local giant... What's the point of staying in this small town?"
"It's not what you think. Elders will come to take charge one after another."
The Ghost King shook his head.
"The Lu Xuelin faction has a decent status in Shanhai Tower."
"Is there also multiple factions within Shanhai Tower?"
Xiao Chen's heart moved and he asked.
"Of course, wherever there are people, there are rivers and lakes. These are unavoidable."
The Ghost King nodded.
"Isn't it the same in your Three Realms Mountain?"
"Haha, Senior, are you trying to trick me?"
Xiao Chen smiled.
"We are a small group of people in the Three Realms Mountains, and we all love each other."
“…”
The Ghost King was helpless, this kid was too defensive.
"Senior, can you tell me about the depths of the Imperial Sea?"
Xiao Chen poured tea for the Ghost King and asked.
"Given your knowledge of the Ice Flame Dragon, you must be familiar with the depths as well, right?"
"I don't know much about it, I've just been there before."
The Ghost King shook his head.
"Why are you asking about the depths of the Imperial Sea? Are you planning to go there? I advise you not to go there. It's very dangerous."
"I'm not going. I'm just curious."
Xiao Chen smiled. He didn’t want to go, but the damn dragon spirit wanted to go!
"Suppress your curiosity."
The Ghost King was serious.
"It is said that deep in the Imperial Sea... there are real dragons."
"What? Dragon Clan?"
Xiao Chen's heart was shocked. Could it be that the spirit of the evil dragon came from the depths of the Imperial Sea?
The spirit of the evil dragon said that something was calling it!
"Yes, but it's just a legend. No one has ever seen it."
The Ghost King nodded.
"The depths of the Imperial Sea are far from as simple as we imagined. I only went to the outer periphery at that time..."
"How dangerous can it be? It can't be more dangerous than Tian Jue Yuan, right?"
Wang Pingbei couldn't help but ask.
“Tian Jue Yuan…even if it’s not as good, it’s probably not far behind.”
The Ghost King thought for a moment and said.
"There are many unknown places in the outer world. The danger level may not be weaker than that of the Abyss of Heaven, but no one has ever been there! The depths of the Emperor Sea is one of them!"
"Unknown Land..."
Xiao Chen narrowed his eyes. It’s so dangerous, why do you still want to go?
If I don't go, will the evil dragon spirit be unable to break the seal?
"Take my advice and don't go to the depths of the Imperial Sea...I almost died there that year."
The Ghost King gave another warning.
"Senior, how strong were you back then? Were you stronger than me?"
Xiao Chen thought about it and asked.
“…”
The Ghost King’s face turned dark and he remained silent.
"Senior, I don't have any other intentions. I just want to ask and have a more direct understanding of the place."
Xiao Chen explained with a wry smile.
"I didn't mean to mock you."
"Where's the Ice Flame Dragon's tail? It's not ready yet? After we finish eating, I still have to do business."
The Ghost King was too lazy to pay attention to Xiao Chen. It was too heartbreaking.
Ten minutes later, the first dish was served.
"This isn't the Ice Flame Dragon's tail either."
The Ghost King took a look and said.
"It's not ready yet. Come, eat something else first."
Xiao Chen poured the wine.
"Senior, I'll toast you a glass."
"Come on, you're trying to trick me again."
The Ghost King said alertly.
"No, I just want to thank you. In Dihai, you stood by my side."
Xiao Chen's face was full of smiles.
"Thank you very much."
"Haha, nothing. I think you are quite pleasing to the eye."
The Ghost King also smiled.
"Would you consider cooperating with me?"
"Senior, why are you bringing this up? Come on, come on, have a drink."
Xiao Chen poured it on the Ghost King again.
"At the wine table, we cultivate our relationship and don't talk about anything else."
