Chapter 41: Peaceful.
In the chaotic space, two blurry figures, one in the shape of a humanoid and another in the shape of a fox with numerous tails, are talking. However, every time the fox figure is mad, the chaotic space begins to distort. The blurry humanoid figure stays motionless, and the space turns normal again.
In the end, the blurry fox with numerous tails calmed down. The born world will, normally doesn’t have any emotion, and their instinct is to protect the world. However, it’s not really unusual for the world to develop an emotion.
"I agreed." A girl's voice comes out of the blurry fox's mouth. After that, both blurry figures disappear from the chaotic space.

A year later, people have already forgotten about the dragon that lives in the Yangtze River in the Wu kingdom. People in Nanchang City proceed with their daily lives. Wu and Li's family finally announced the wedding date for Wu Yi and Li Xue.
People are happy with the announcement, but most of them don’t care because it has nothing to do with them. They need to work to survive in this world. Gao Tao's business is getting prosperous because a few people started to have bad intentions and disturb it. However, Gao Tao is no longer someone who is young and naive and can be easily bullied.
Gao Tao, after searching for Levi's carcass for a long time, finally gives up. He is feeling conflicted after what he did, but it’s not like he can turn back time. Another bad news story is Wu Yi's wedding date; in the end, he gives up and stops pursuing her. He can’t offend the Wu and Yi families.
At first, he can’t sleep at night, afraid that Levi will come for revenge. But even after one year, there is no sign of the dragon. That means Levi might have died from the injury; according to martial artists, most people or demonic beasts will not survive the attack from the sword formation.
Inside a room, Gao Tao is reading the report on his business expansion in other cities and towns. There are some problems, but with money, most of them can be solved.
"Master, Sir. Gao Ming had returned from the business trip." The servant enters the room and bows his head.
"Reserve the room for the restaurant; we haven't seen each other in almost a year."
"Yes, master." After saying that, the servant left the room.
Gao Ming, after being released, discovered what had happened. Had a major argument with Gao Tao, but with the help of their mother and other siblings, both of them were able to reconcile. Gao Ming then volunteered to expand the business to another city, to which Gao Tao agreed.

Inside a small chamber, a turtle started to wake up.
Levi gradually opens his eyes; in a daze, he slowly remembers what had happened. Rather than becoming mad, he is calm. It’s not like this is the first time he's been betrayed.
The last thing he remembers is the monotone voice. When he checks his evolution point, he can only curse. The evolution point that he had gathered for a long time was all gone.
After contemplating what to do, he decided to kill Gao Tao and the martial artists later. Levi's body shivers when he remembers the numerous sword qi that sliced his body and caused him so much pain.
"I need to get stronger first; it’s too risky to fight even one of them." Although he had died many times in the past, it’s not like he got used to the pain and death.
"I need to go to the battlefield where there are many corpses, but most of the war is fought on land, not water." Levi tries moving his body, but he doesn’t feel any pain. He enters the hole connected to the lake.
Levi's turtle head emerges from the water and looks around the lake. Seeing it was safe, he went straight to the river and kept swimming to flee. He doesn’t know how much time has passed and is afraid the martial artist is waiting to ambush him.
A few days later, a large dragon turtle swam leisurely underwater leisurely, near a mangrove forest. Levi is in a good mood. Since he managed to escape, he only needs to know what day it is today.
Not far from him is a boy casting a net into the river to catch fish on the wooden boat. However, he always caught only a few fish. His father's leg is injured because of an accident. Since then, he has been the only hope for his family to survive.
Today is the same; when he pulled the net, he only caught a few fish.
"With this, I can’t sell it and find a physician to treat my father's leg." While he mutters and takes out the fish from the net, a large shadow is approaching the wooden boat.
Soon a large serpentine neck with scales comes out of the water, and a pair of large vertical eyes are gazing at him.
The boy's body is trembling, and he doesn’t know what to do.
"Boy, what day is today?"
The boy, afraid, subconsciously answers the question.
"Oh, it looks like I have to hibernate for almost a year." After receiving the answer, Levi turns his head and prepares to leave.
"Wait, river god!" Boy, remember that his father once told him that the dragon is considered a sea or river god? That means if he can offer something to the dragon, he can help his father.
Levi is amused because no one has called him the river god before. "What do you want?"
Seeing that the river god turns around and doesn’t eat him. The boy mustered his courage and began to explain what had happened to his family. This boy's story is the same as Gao Tao, but this boy is innocent; there is no point in killing him.
"Bring your father to me and let me see if I can cure him." Fortunately for the boy, he is in a good mood after almost dying. After saying that, Levi submerges into the water and disappears.
-
The boy, after entering the village near the river, quickly brings his father to the boat to see the river god.
The boy's father is confused but still follows his son.
The villagers even asked the boy what had happened. However, the boy doesn’t say anything. The boy's uncle, after finding out about it, is worried and secretly follows them from behind.
"Son, you say you are going to bring me to a doctor, but we don’t have the money?"
"Don’t worry, Father." The boy rows the boat faster until he reaches a mangrove forest. "Seniors, we have arrived!"
The boy's father doesn’t know what's going on and suddenly turns pale because a dragon head with a long neck comes out of the water. Just like his son, when he first meets Levi, he is scared and can’t move.
"River god, this is my father."
"Okay, make sure your father doesn’t move."
"Yes, River God."
Levi lowers his head and casts a rejuvenating spell. A green magic circle appears, and many green particles enter the boy's father's body. Gradually, the boy's father can feel that his leg doesn’t hurt anymore and that his body feels better. Because the boy is near his father, his body feels warm, and any minor injury is cured.
After a while, Levi stopped. "I already healed your father; goodbye."
"River god, what about the payment?"
"I don’t need it." After saying that, Levi enters the water and disappears.
"Thank you, river god!" The boy shouted. The boy's father, in a daze, also shouted to thank the river god.
The boy's uncle, far from them and secretly following them, froze in fear after seeing the large dragon. Only after the dragon disappeared did he have the courage to go near them and ask what had happened.
That day, the villagers found out about the river god and tried to find him. However, it was useless; the river god was already gone.

Levi, while swimming in the water, suddenly stopped and heard a monotone voice.
[An additional mission protects the eight-tail demonic fox accession to the nine-tail demonic fox.]
[Complete this mission, and your main mission will be considered complete and you will be rewarded with a lesser azure dragon bloodline.]
'Bloodline of a lesser azure dragon?' Levi is unsure whether this reward is good or bad because he is uncertain what will happen. In the end, it's best if he first looks for the eight-tailed demonic fox. His only lead comes from the demonic leopard Boa Qi, who previously told him about the demonic beast queen in Huli Mountain. The question now is, where is Huli Mountain?
