This scoundrel Ge Xian wasn't shouting for help randomly.
Before he opened his mouth, he had seen clearly that at Sunset Mountain, the matter of Li Wa and Lu Hualong joining forces to capture Bao Mingjing and Bai Fugui had utterly failed.
The key wasn't that son of Bao Hanzhang, but Bai Fugui.
This second-generation spirit demon, only at Foundation Establishment Perfection, had fully displayed her power and "extravagance."
Various terrifyingly potent wondrous items and treasures had battered Li Wa and Lu Hualong into helplessness.
Clearly crushing an entire major realm, with divine abilities and demon arts far surpassing her opponents, this Auspicious Beast's background was simply too immense. With the sheer pile of magical treasures filling the sky, no matter how the two struggled, they couldn't get close.
Coupled with Bao Mingjing's cooperation, the two even showed signs of being counter-killed.
And on the other side, the true battlefield that was constantly shifting, within the blood mist that covered the sky and sun, Yelü Tianzheng and the Eternal Life Cult forces were also retreating steadily, with no possibility of victory.
The tide had turned!
Any intelligent person could foresee the outcome.
Lu Hualong, being the most cunning and selfish, had a realization and began to consider his retreat, his actions loosening slightly.
It was at this moment that Ge Xian arrived.
With a single glance, he discerned the battlefield situation.
He loudly yelled towards the "biggest thigh" in his mind.
A single "Sister Bai, Sister Fugui" drew everyone's attention.
Prime Minister Tuotuo also had an adopted son?
Bai Fugui was also perplexed, where did she get a younger brother from?
Until she saw the man-headed, dragon-bodied peddler breaking through the river. Although it was the first time she had seen such a perfect Dragon Body, the face was very familiar. This fellow wasn't wrong in his shouting; he was indeed the biggest contributor this time.
If he hadn't tipped them off in advance, Bao Hanzhang wouldn't have been able to precisely detonate the Flesh Altars in Jiangzhe Province, nor would he have been able to mobilize the army to encircle and suppress Yelü Tianzheng and the Eternal Life Cult.
This peddler had made immense contributions.
As if by coincidence, or perhaps it was all Ge Xian's calculation.
Just as he finished shouting, and Bai Fugui looked over, sonic boom sounds suddenly erupted continuously from behind.
A ferocious Demon Fox was screaming as it broke through the air.
Ge Xian heard the sound and didn't even dare to turn his head, only accelerating his escape, while inwardly complaining, "This Demon Fox is so fierce. It can still chase me like nothing happened after being brutally ravaged by me for more than ten breaths. Hurry, rich sister, save me..."
Little did this fellow know?
To recover from her injuries and break through the black mist to hunt down Ge Xian.
Yelü Yuyan paid a considerable price, consuming almost all the spirit pills and blood food she carried, including her maids, fox ghosts, and ox slaves, leaving none behind.
She pursued him relentlessly, thinking she could finally capture that shameless scoundrel.
Unfortunately, her hope was shattered the next moment.
In her fox eyes, Ge Xian's fleeing figure had already appeared.
At the same time, she saw over a dozen treasures flying through the air, arriving in an instant.
First, a palm-sized [Vajra Bowl] was seen, which suddenly enlarged and enclosed Ge Xian, then shrank again. A Vajra Shield then rose. At this moment, a pair of Heart Devouring Fox Claws reached out.
With a dull thud, the two collided, each sent flying backward.
"What a treasure!"
Ge Xian, now like a Little Monster Dragon, lay inside the bowl.
He had been panicked at first, but seeing that Yelü Yuyan couldn't shatter the Vajra Bowl with one claw, he immediately praised it.
In his perception, the treasure beneath him far surpassed anything he possessed.
As a possessive urge instinctively arose in his heart, he suddenly saw various treasures like Blades, Spears, Swords, and Halberds, and Banners and Nets flying to cover his retreat, blocking Yelü Yuyan on the river.
The Vajra Bowl, borrowing the momentum, flew back to Sunset Mountain.
Only then did Bai Fugui's soft, sweet voice reach Ge Xian's ears:
"Don't panic, I'm here, Yelü Yuyan can't hurt you."
As the voice faded.
Ge Xian, riding the Vajra Bowl, flew before Bai Fugui.
Behind him was Yelü Yuyan's complete meltdown.
She was almost frenzied, venting her rage on those strange artifacts and weapons. Although each one was knocked away by her, Ge Xian was completely out of reach.
Even if she had wanted to recklessly charge forward and kill Ge Xian under the protection of Bai Fugui and Bao Mingjing, she was immediately stopped by Lu Hualong.
"I'm safe, my life is saved."
"What a thick thigh to cling to!"
"Ten times thicker than I originally imagined."
"This was worth it. Fortunately, I didn't choose to force my way out to sea, or I would have been caught by that Madwoman at the sea exit."
"Fortune favors the bold."
Seeing Yelü Yuyan's frenzied screaming, Ge Xian was in excellent spirits.
He didn't mind that the golden alms bowl he was lying in was held by Bai Fugui, nor that his completely unclothed "dragon body" was being curiously examined by the woman.
Beside him, Bao Mingjing was once again casting Meteorite Spell, smashing Li Wa and Lu Hualong.
He even had the leisure to glance over and praise:
"Little brother, your dragon body is well-built, already top-tier. I wonder if it came from a Dragon Nest or the Four Seas Dragon Palace?"
"Brother Bao, you guessed wrong this time. He didn't come from a Dragon Nest or a Dragon Palace. He's a human rogue cultivator, a Young Peddler. And, he's a spy under my Political Investigation Department. The intelligence I brought earlier was from him..."
As Bai Fugui transmitted her thoughts.
Surprise flickered in Bao Mingjing's eyes, and his praise grew even stronger.
He clearly knew that without this intelligence, Yelü Tianzheng would likely have succeeded in shrouding the entire Jiangzhe Province in the [Spirit Desire Blood Cloud]. When the blood rain fell, all the people in the province would have turned into blood soldiers.
His father, Bao Hanzhang, would have been held responsible.
Whether it was his own cultivation or the court's accountability, it would have been enough for him to deal with.
In a sense, this Young Peddler was also a benefactor to the Bao family.
At this moment, both Bai Fugui and Bao Mingjing had decided that once the rebellion was quelled, they would properly reward the young man.
At the same time, they were also curious as to how this young man had transformed into a dragon and was being relentlessly pursued by Yelü Yuyan.
Looking at her, it was clear she harbored an irreconcilable hatred.
However, curiosity was one thing, and they were both very discreet, neither intending to ask.
Seeing this, Ge Xian, being both perceptive and wanting to legitimize his intelligence-gathering methods, transmitted to both of them:
"I have some means to infiltrate Yelü Yuyan's lair and eavesdrop, stealing information."
"When I left, I also swiped a copy of the Yinglong Immortal Lord Scroll from that Madwoman. I was just cultivating it casually, I couldn't transform into a dragon."
"But earlier, when Lord Bao summoned the meteorites, I was still on Sunset Mountain and couldn't dodge. I had to take refuge in the underground water veins. Coincidentally, the meteorite smashed open a geode, and I heard that the outside world was being contaminated by blood poison. So, I took a risk and underwent Dragon Transformation, which could both cleanse the blood pollution and increase my cultivation. It was a win-win."
"Because I was visualizing the Yinglong Spirit God, I hid in the water veins, and no one knew."
"But I didn't expect Yelü Yuyan to discover me and chase me, pestering me relentlessly. I exhausted all my means before I could escape back."
"If Sister Bai hadn't saved me, my little life would have been lost..."
As he spoke with emotion, Ge Xian opened his Dragon Eyes and looked gratefully at Bai Fugui.
At the same time, he unconsciously began to administer the drug.
Boost affinity!
This move had gradually become ingrained in his instincts.
Whether you were righteous or villainous, he'd first feed you a few wisps of Qi Fragrance.
Initially, he couldn't control the dosage of this technique. Too little was useless, too much could cause trouble.
Now, he was incredibly skilled. No one could detect it, they just inexplicably found the young man very pleasing.
Especially before Ge Xian acted, he had laid the groundwork so well, with such genuine sincerity, that no one could detect any flaws.
Even Bao Mingjing, standing nearby, felt that this Young Peddler was a sincere person worth befriending after hearing his words.
Bai Fugui, on the other hand, felt no discomfort whatsoever. She directly accepted the title "Sister Bai" and soothed him with her soft, sweet voice:
"Since you call me sister and you have rendered great service, I will naturally protect you."
"The war is not over, and your injuries are not light. You will stay within my [Vajra Bowl] for now."
"After we deal with the Yelü Family and the Eternal Life Cult, I will reward you. With my guarantee, no one can embezzle your merits. This will be enough to ensure your future Dao Path is smooth and your career is unimpeded."
