Lu Chen pondered for a long time on the southern bank of the Longchuan River. In the end, he did not choose to return to Kunlun Mountain. Of course, he did not forget Yi Xin. She was a young girl with a smile as bright and warm as the sun. Even after so many years, her voice and smile could not be erased from his heart.
However, it was not good to return to Kunlun Mountain.
During that full moon night, many things happened. Lu Chen killed the young master of the Su family, Sumo. After his identity was exposed, he was hunted down by both the righteous and evil sects. If he returned, he would easily alert his old enemies. As for Yi Xin, she had died that day. After Lu Chen avenged her, he had fled. It was probably the Yi family who helped her with her funeral arrangements. If he went back to look for her now, he would not even know where her grave was. He would have to secretly pry for her whereabouts. This was another matter that could easily alert others.
However, the most important part of the matter was not this. Up until now, Lu Chen still couldn't figure out who that damned baldy was, and he couldn't understand him. That person held a high position as a Supreme, and his words carried enormous weight in the Kunlun Mountains and the surrounding areas. It could be said that he was already a supreme existence in a dignified and prestigious sect.
However, at this point, Lu Chen still did not dare to say that he could completely trust him. Even when he suddenly recalled his childhood in the Southern Wilderness, whenever he returned to the Chaotic Lands and approached the Human Race, he would instinctively be wary of this True Monarch Tianlan.
The damned baldy's heart was as deep as the ocean, and his cultivation was frighteningly high. As for his unpredictable methods, there was no need to mention anything else. At the very least, Lu Chen himself was taught by him. There was no one else in this world who knew more about the Baldy than Lu Chen. If possible, he would not want to be enemies with the Baldy.
However, he did not know what Baldy thought of him now. Perhaps the greatest sorrow of being in the shadow business was that it was difficult to trust someone completely.
Lu Chen made his decision and informed Atsu.
Of course, he couldn't explain it in such detail to a dog, so he tried to simplify it as much as possible. He said to Atsu, "There's no hurry with Kunlun Mountain. Instead, let's go to the Immortal City and help him with the things that your cheap father told us to do."
"Woof …"
…
Atsu didn't seem to be very insistent. Perhaps for the sake of Lu Chen, he gave him some face. He mumbled a few words and followed him.
Since the goal was set, the Longchuan River in front of him became the biggest problem to overcome. Neither Lu Chen nor Atsu had forgotten the scene of falling into the river, and neither of them wanted to try it again.
However, the Longchuan River flowed right in front of them, with no end in sight. Lu Chen stood by the river and was at a loss of what to do.
"This is going to be a bit troublesome …" Lu Chen muttered to himself with a frown. His eyes were already scanning the surrounding terrain, especially the areas with trees. He was already thinking if he could build a simple boat or raft to float across the water.
However, if this section of the Long Chuan River did indeed have some powerful and terrifying river beasts, once they were discovered, the small boats, wooden rafts and the like would be no different from papier-mâché once they were discovered. At that time, if they fell into the river again, the same thing would probably happen again.
For many years, the deeper the Land of Chaos went, the fewer cultivators who could reach this place. Most of those who could cross the Longchuan River were Perfected Cultivators in the Yuanying Realm. At such a high cultivation level, flying was a remarkable ability that most people could master. Naturally, they would not be as troubled as Lu Chen and Atsu.
Just as Lu Chen's head was aching, and he was deep in thought, Ah-Tu walked up to him from the side. He looked at Lu Chen, and there was a hint of disdain in his eyes.
Lu Chen saw it and immediately became angry. He said, "What are you looking at! It's not like you don't know what's under the Longchuan River. Our cultivation level is not high enough, so it's very difficult to cross. "
Atsu snorted and even wagged its tail. It did not seem to mind Lu Chen's words at all. Instead, it looked a little proud.
"Hmm?" Lu Chen was a little puzzled. He stared at the big black dog that was slightly taller than him and said, "Why, you seem to disagree?"
Atsu barked twice and walked straight to the Longchuan River.
Lu Chen watched it walk all the way to the riverside. Then, he saw the black dog look up at the sky. Its aura suddenly became especially imposing and arrogant. Suddenly, it roared twice!
"Woof! Woof! "
The dog's barking spread far and wide, drifting on the wide surface of the Longchuan River. It was loud, but the feedback was not loud.
Lu Chen watched from the side for a long time, only to see that the surface of the river was calm and there was no reaction …
"Hmm?" Lu Chen walked to Atsu's side and patted the dazed Atsu. He said with a smile, "Although I don't know what you want to do, it seems that you did not succeed."
Atsu looked angry, but also a little confused. At this moment, it seemed to have doubts about its own intelligence. It squatted by the river and stared at the river for a long time. All of a sudden, the black dog jumped up as if it had thought of something, and Lu Chen, who was standing beside it, jumped in fright.
Atsu barked twice at the Longchuan River, but this time, the sound was much shorter. Then, it suddenly spat out something from its mouth.
Lu Chen saw it clearly and realized that it seemed to be a golden stone the size of half a fist.
The golden stone fell to the ground and rolled a few times before falling into the Longchuan River. Suddenly, there was a flash of golden light, and the water bubbled. The golden stone disappeared into the depths of the river in the blink of an eye.
Then, Atsu solemnly barked a few times at the Longchuan River like before.
The Longchuan River seemed to be so calm and did not seem to have any reaction.
Lu Chen walked to Atsu's side and touched the somewhat dazed dog's head. He smiled and said, "What is that stone? Where did it come from?"
Atsu looked very stunned. After a while, it turned around and barked in the direction it came from. Lu Chen thought for a while and said, "Did Sirius give it to you?"
Atsu nodded.
Lu Chen spread his hands and didn't know what to say for a moment. He thought to himself, perhaps the thing that Heavenly Wolf gave its son was also a treasure? At least when the golden stone was revealed for a short period of time, it looked quite magnificent. However, in the blink of an eye, it was thrown into the Longchuan River. He wondered what expression Sirius would have if he knew what had happened today.
While the two of them were in a daze by the riverbank, a majestic aura suddenly came from the river. Before Lu Chen and Atsu could react, a huge tentacle suddenly broke out of the river and landed with a loud bang. It brought with it a large wave and directly gushed over.
Lu Chen and Atsu's reactions were not slow. When they saw the wave rise, they hurriedly jumped away, avoiding the fate of being drenched.
However, very soon, their eyes were fixed on the huge creature that suddenly appeared in the river.
The tentacle, which was thicker than their bodies and several tens of feet long, was actually just one of the tentacles of the giant beast in the river. The part of the tentacle that was exposed above the water looked like an incomparably huge octopus. Its two huge black eyes stared down at the two ants on the riverbank from above.
The huge creature looked at Lu Chen and then at Atsu. After a while, a hoarse and ear-piercing voice suddenly echoed in their ears.
"Wolf cub, did your perverted father ask you to find me …"
