Who let him join the Sword Sect?!

Just as Zhang Ze was eagerly wondering where my Lieutenant Li was, Li finally broke through the sky and arrived.

In the form of a dragon head, Li flew out from under the cliff and bumped into Zhang Ze's lower back.

Zhang Ze stumbled a bit and then Li, like a thief ringing his own bell, hid behind him.

Li pouted and said, "Help me." After speaking, Li transformed into the shape of a sachet and slipped into Zhang Ze's clothes.

Just as Li hid, another ball of fire flew up from below the cliff, surrounded by five flying swords.

The fireball, seeing so many people here, was stunned for a moment, swirling in mid-air, not knowing what to do.

Before Zhang Ze could inquire, Chen Qin waved her hand, and the five flying swords were absorbed into her ring.

The fireball also revealed its true form, fluttering its wings and flying into Chen Qin's arms.

It was the Little Phoenix Rongrong that Chen Qin summoned from the Stone Pill.

"Stupid Li! You're not trustworthy!"

Rongrong poked its head out, looking at Zhang Ze angrily.

It seemed that the dragon and phoenix were fighting.

And judging by the result, it was clear that Li was beaten.

Beaten by Chen Qin's little chicken-like Little Phoenix Rongrong.

After calming Rongrong down, Chen Qin asked for the reason.

And the truth, of course, was that it was all caused by Li itself.

The incident started when Li returned from studying abroad at the Beast Taming Sect, having first learned the method of herding cattle and raising elephants, and then had an epiphany in the Spirit Deer Valley, comprehending the Partial Dragon Transformation Skill.

So it became quite conceited.

To maintain its status in the Jianghu, it actively sought trouble, and the second Dragon-Phoenix Battle was imminent.

While Zhang Ze and Chen Qin were flirting with each other, Li went provocatively.

The main intention was to show off its Partial Dragon Transformation Skill.

But birds can't be seen in the same light after three days; let alone, Rongrong is also a Primordial Divine Beast. During Li's time at Beast Taming, it evolved comprehensively in all aspects of morality, intellect, physique, aesthetics, and labor.

Li, on account of eating whatever it desired, though naturally talented, grew lazy by the day.

Meanwhile, during Rongrong's time at the Sword Pavilion in Jing State, it not only gained enlightenment but was also guided by Chen Qin and several Sword Sect Elders, specializing in Sword Dao.

Although still palm-sized, it could already control five flying swords simultaneously and deeply inherited the teachings of its Junior Sister, with a tendency to control more and more.

In terms of intelligence, Rongrong, having received a good education from a young age, clearly surpassed Li, who spent its days hanging out with Zhang Ze, playing with cats and teasing dogs.

Li's various methods of transformation—turning into a dragon one moment, a ball the next, its left hand shimmering with blue light, its right hand scattering beans to form soldiers—were all broken by a single sword from the Little Phoenix Rongrong.

After a defeat, Li abandoned martial ethics, using the Thousand Machines Technique and began a match of gadgets.

But Rongrong was no longer the grounded chicken it used to be; it had long learned to fly, more flexibly and higher than Li.

At the point of Li's exhaustion and depletion of its Divine Soul, Rongrong seized the opportunity and broke it with a sword.

Finally, Li played cunning tricks, using delayed tactics, surprise attacks, feigning death and false surrender, but to no avail in front of the scholarly Rongrong.

Thus, the result of this provocation was unexpected for Li, losing three out of three battles, until it could not lose anymore.

In the end, it was even forced to put down a written agreement, signing several unequal treaties.

Such as acknowledging Rongrong as its superior, paying respects morning and evening, and so on...

However, though the treaty was signed glibly, to Li, it was no different from the Su and De non-aggression treaty Zhang Ze mentioned.

Meant to be torn up.

Also part of the plan.

Not two hours later, Li unilaterally tore up the treaty and unsurprisingly launched a blitzkrieg sneak attack.

Due to Rongrong's lack of Jianghu experience, Li actually succeeded, nearly biting off the tufted feather on Rongrong's head.

And that tuft was Rongrong's treasure, requiring maintenance twice daily.

Therefore, this time Rongrong was truly angry, wielding a sword to chase Li here...

"You deserve it, go apologize." Zhang Ze took the sachet form of Li from his chest and tossed it into Chen Qin's hand.

Then Li, before Rongrong could grab it with a claw, swiftly flew back.

Fortunately, thanks to these two Primordial Exotic Beasts causing a ruckus, the awkward atmosphere here also dissipated.

The already restless Pavilion Master Mumu, seeing this, immediately thought of a way to slip away, "Father, I will handle this matter, ensuring justice."

Though Rongrong wanted to beat Li again immediately, upon hearing Pavilion Master Mumu's words, it could only desist.

Having stayed here with Chen Qin for over a month, it knew this expressionless Pavilion Master Mumu was an honest figure.

Zhang Ze and Chen Qin quickly understood, nodding and agreeing as they followed Mumu away from this place of trouble, while quietly whispering to their Divine Beasts with some pointers.

"Rongrong, be patient, there's no rush to fight."

"Li, don't cry, practice well then fight back."

These two unorthodox Senior Brother and Sister, fanning the flames as they walked...

After the youngsters left, the two young elders started discussing serious matters.

Wei Zhuang looked at Chen Qianhu and said, "I have some questions for you."

"Please go on."

"Tell me in detail about the Hundred Demons Sect."

"Please follow me..."

Chen Qianhu led Wei Zhuang to the Library Tower of the Sword Pavilion, found a quiet room on the top floor, and invited Wei Zhuang to sit down. After a moment, he handed a few ancient scrolls to Wei Zhuang.

After flipping through the ancient scrolls, Wei Zhuang said, "After the great battle, let me see the records about the West Continent as well."

"One moment."

However, compared to the records about the Hundred Demons Sect, the records of the West Continent were much fewer.

Due to the obstruction from the Central Continent, generally, there are only two routes to the West Continent.
