Peace Order-Chapter 1465 - 134: Nine Cauldrons, Part 3!
"Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah!!!!"
"Help, oh no, my life is at stake, oh no, it’s a matter of life and death, ah ah ah ah ah!"
In the vast sky, a piercing yet endearingly naive scream echoed in all directions, through layers of clouds resembling mountains and rivers. The Ancient Red Dragon sped across the sky at lightning speed.
Li Guanyi sat on the back of the Ancient Red Dragon.
The silver-haired girl leaned against the Nine-colored Divine Deer.
The miniaturized auspicious Iron-eating Beast clung to Li Guanyi’s calf, shivering, tears welling in its big eyes. It had shrunk itself to look like a black and white dumpling, hanging onto Li Guanyi’s leg.
Round, bouncy.
Trembling in the wind.
The cheerful laughter of the Ancient Red Dragon and the wailing of the Iron-eating Beast Ball spread across the sky.
The Nine-colored Divine Deer’s speed was fast, riding the wind, but the Ancient Red Dragon, as the mightiest creature of ancient times, surpasses it in speed.
However, the sensations differ.
The Nine-colored Divine Deer rides the wind, graceful and leisurely.
The Ancient Red Dragon has only speed.
Mountains and rivers seemed to shrink, racing underneath the Red Dragon at high speed, as the Southern landscape, the waterways, passed by like strokes on a map, dizzying to behold.
Soon, they saw the southwestern landscape.
The Ancient Red Dragon’s vertical pupils glanced at the Iron-eating Beast curled up and trembling.
After all, it was appointed by the Nine-colored Divine Deer as the [sturdily built] child.
With tough skin and thick flesh, it had recovered its strength.
Amusement and a hint of pleasure flashed in the dragon’s eyes.
"Hold on tight."
As the voice fell.
The Iron-eating Beast, clinging to Li Guanyi’s leg, raised its head, dazed:
"What, hold on? I’m not seated..."
"Eeekahhhhhh!!!"
Too late.
The Ancient Red Dragon suddenly accelerated, diving downwards at a terrifying speed, even faster than when it traveled from Jiangnan to the southwest. The fierce wind blew, and the fur of the Iron-eating Beast Ball bristled.
"Jiuli ahhhhhh!"
"It’s too dangerous outside, I don’t want to eat Jiangnan’s bamboo anymore!"
"Take me away, Jiuli!!!"
...
Xuanhu Mountain Lord lay in the southwestern forest. During autumn, the forests inhabited by auspicious creatures turned red and gold, leaves of various colors cascading in the wind, peaceful and quiet.
Xuanhu lounged by the riverside, watching a red leaf fall and create ripples on the water, counting the fish in the river rising to the surface and blowing bubbles, feeling inexplicably bored.
Xuanhu Mountain Lord played with the water with its paws, frowning, suddenly said:
"That guy went to Jiangnan, could it be they don’t want to return?"
"There are all kinds of good things there."
Even the Sun God Bird felt dispirited, standing atop Xuanhu’s head, said listlessly: "Who knows, that gluttonous and lazy guy might really stay there. I heard the bamboo is thin and tender, and the bamboo shoots’ juice is more plentiful than here."
Xuanhu slapped the water in frustration.
The Sun God Bird fluttered its wings and flew up, circled, then landed again, preening its feathers, comforting the sulky Xuanhu Mountain Lord: "Oh, come on, it’s not like anything happened to them. Just pretend they encountered the Ancient Red Dragon and got captured!"
"Hmph, maybe they got eaten by the Ancient Red Dragon!"
The Sun God Bird also felt annoyed at the one who only thinks about eating and never sends back any news. Xuanhu said: "Your words really give no mercy, but the Ancient Red Dragon has been gone for so long, how could it just appear?"
"And meet them, no less."
The Sun God Bird craned its neck, stubbornly said: "Maybe!"
"Who knows if it’s possible?"
Xuanhu was about to say something, but suddenly heard familiar screams from the sky. The Mountain Lord looked up with the Sun God Bird, only to see a flash before their eyes – a golden-red streak fell fiercely from the sky and landed heavily.
Boom!!!
A massive sound wave, a visible ripple of air swept through the forest.
Water burst open, large plumes of spray vaporized in the air from the endless heat, turning into vast mist, refracting the light. Gold-red scales, vertical pupils full of threat and power, playful laughter.
Xuanhu Mountain Lord: "..."
Sun God Bird: "..."
Xuanhu’s fur stood on end: "Y-you-you!"
Among auspicious beings, among divine beasts!
Strength if needed, auspiciousness if needed, divine abilities if needed, symbolization if needed!
Ancient Red Dragon!
The Ancient Red Dragon, upon seeing old friends, cheerfully said:
"Little cat, little birdie, long time no see, you both look delicious!"
The Sun God Bird rolled its eyes, fell into the water, wings on its belly, eyes turning white, foaming at the mouth, drifting with the current.
Caught by Xuanhu Mountain Lord with a paw.
Xuanhu Mountain Lord, the youngest but the bravest, fur bristling, still bared its fangs and glared at the Ancient Red Dragon: "What do you want!"The Ancient Red Dragon said:
"Hahaha, it’s just been so long since I’ve seen you all, I’m just here for a visit."
Xuanhu Mountain Lord said: "Don’t fool me!"
"Are you here for a fight?!"
The Ancient Red Dragon’s vertical pupils looked down at the bristling Xuanhu.
