Undying Inheritor, Plot Deviation!

In the dense primeval forest, towering ancient trees blotted out the sky and sun, their thick canopies blocking out the sunlight, allowing only a scant few rays to penetrate the layers of leaves and illuminate the dense woods.

In the dappled shadows of the forest, Bai He had fully entered his Dragon Transformation state, his body covered in silver scales and sharp bone spurs protruding. Faced with the threat of the Giant Ship approaching the shore, he exerted his full strength, transforming into a streak of silver light as he darted swiftly through the trees.

Due to the recent battle between the two Dragon Race overlords on the outskirts of the forest, the Eight-Armed Evil Dragon and the Ancient Tyrant Dragon, many of the Beast Kings who had previously occupied parts of the primeval forest's periphery had disappeared. As a result, in less than half an hour, Bai He arrived at his residence by the Small Lake.

At that moment, Xiao Chen was quietly sitting cross-legged by the Small Lake, silently cultivating.

Under the effects of the Heavenly Tablet Mystic Skill, a large amount of Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy was drawn in and gathered around Xiao Chen, including the essence of plants and trees, the radiance of the sun, and the glow of the morning… The misty Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy settled in the air like clouds, forming a layer of hazy and brilliant light gauze that enveloped the sapphire-like Small Lake, making the place seem like a floating fairyland.

Seeing Bai He emerge from the dense forest in his Dragon Transformation state, Xiao Chen frowned and asked, "Bai He, what happened?"

Bai He retracted the silver scales and sharp bone spurs that covered his body, slowly exiting his Dragon Transformation state. With a solemn expression, he replied, "Master, I just saw a Giant Ship heading this way near the shore. I think someone might be landing on this island."

"People? Could it be the Human Race from the Realm of Longevity?"

Xiao Chen furrowed his brow slightly and began to ponder.

"Yes, I think so! Master, should we hide?"

Bai He glanced at Xiao Chen, who was deep in thought, and tentatively asked.

"Why should we hide? The people on those Giant Ships are strangers to us. Although their purpose for landing on the island is unknown, we have no direct conflict of interest with them. Besides, the island is so large, they might not even find this place. To abandon this safe haven just because of a possible risk is undoubtedly cutting off one's nose to spite one's face!"

Xiao Chen shook his head, rejecting Bai He's suggestion. In his opinion, this approach was not rational. As for what to do specifically, he would wait until he encountered those people.

I could say that I actually know the identities of these people. They are all prodigies from powerful forces in the Realm of Longevity, most of them arrogant and conceited. The reason they came to this island is to find this generation's Dragon Race's symbiotic Dragon King, so everyone on the island is their enemy!

Although he had anticipated Xiao Chen's reaction, Bai He couldn't help but grumble inwardly. But considering that more and more people would be coming to the island soon, avoiding them would be impossible, so Bai He could only accept it.

It wasn't that he was afraid, but having already gained many benefits, he didn't want to face unnecessary risks anymore.

But suddenly, he thought that if he could kill some of the people who came to the island, and if he was the one who killed them, wouldn't that count as causing a deviation in the plot? Perhaps he could get more Source Energy that way. Thinking of this, Bai He couldn't help but start rubbing his fists together!

Source Energy had a great effect on him. In addition to upgrading the system and enhancing his strength, more importantly, it could help him deduce cultivation techniques. The Heavenly Tablet Mystic Skill he had obtained was incomplete, and it might be difficult for him to come to the Realm of Longevity again in the future, so he could only rely on the system to deduce the subsequent techniques.

Just as Xiao Chen and Bai He were discussing how to face the people who were about to arrive on Dragon Island, a strange noise suddenly came from the forest in the distance.

Flocks of seabirds rose in alarm from the dense forest, accompanied by the rustling of trees. Someone was rapidly approaching from the dense forest, and they were moving very fast, and it sounded like there were many of them.

"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh…"

It was almost like a fleeting shadow. All that could be heard was the sound of feet stepping on branches. In the blink of an eye, a man passed through the dense forest and arrived at the Small Lake where Bai He was.

The man was tall and handsome, but his eyes were extremely deep, exuding a chilling coldness, giving people an extremely sinister feeling. The sinister man stood on the treetop of a large tree, with his hands behind his back, quietly looking at Xiao Chen and Bai He.

Looking at the sinister man on the treetop, Xiao Chen stepped forward and pulled Bai He behind him, then met the sinister man's gaze without showing any weakness.

The sinister man did not make any move, just watched quietly, as if waiting for something. Suddenly, a flock of birds rose in alarm again in the forest area not far away, and several more people came to the Small Lake through the dense forest.

There was a man and a woman.

The man had a handsome appearance, dressed as a scholar, with a feminine temperament, but also gave people a sinister feeling. The woman had a charming appearance, a graceful figure, and wore a nearly transparent skirt, with only a wisp of light gauze wrapped around her jade peaks in front of her chest. Her flat abdomen was exposed, which was extremely seductive.

The two stood side by side under the tree where the sinister man was.

"Who are you, and why are you here?"

The man with the sinister face asked. His accent was very peculiar, but it was still understandable.

After saying that, the three slowly stepped forward, forming a triangular formation around the two of them. A faint killing intent emanated from their bodies, as if they wouldn't give up until they received a satisfactory answer.

"Swish, swish, swish..."

With a rustling of branches, several more people came through the dense forest to this place. Leading them was a burly man with a face full of stubble. The man's muscles were knotted all over his body, and his bare upper body was covered with fallen leaves. He held a large blade in his hand and was cursing as he walked over.

Suddenly seeing the few people confronting each other not far away, the stubble-faced man immediately stopped talking and held up his hand to stop the younger brothers behind him. Then, the group stood quietly in place and watched.

"It seems the plot has changed!"

Behind Xiao Chen, Bai He's heart suddenly sank.

In the original story, it seemed that only the sinister man and the charming woman came here, but now there was an extra sinister scholar and a group of sailors.

But fortunately, the group of sailors standing not far away watching didn't seem to be on the same side as the three in front of him, otherwise they wouldn't just be standing on the sidelines. Bai He could only comfort himself in this way.

Watching the three gradually approaching, a faint killing intent permeated the air. Xiao Chen couldn't help but take a step back, then replied expressionlessly, "My name is Xiao Chen, and the young man behind me is Bai He. We both came from the Human Realm after breaking through the void."

"Breaking through the void?"

Hearing Xiao Chen's words, the three who were aggressively approaching suddenly seemed to have heard something shocking. They couldn't help but take a few steps back, their expressions slightly unnatural.

It seems that cultivators who can break through the void with martial force, even in the legendary Realm of Longevity, can be considered absolute powerhouses. Seeing the undisguised shock on the three's faces, Xiao Chen couldn't help but think to himself.

But unfortunately, although they now mistakenly believed that Bai He and Xiao Chen were hiding a powerhouse at the level of breaking through the void, such a lie would not be able to be concealed in the end. They would eventually discover something was wrong, so it was better to be honest.

After Xiao Chen briefly explained the situation to them, the three people in front of him relaxed, as if they had breathed a sigh of relief.

So it turned out they were just lucky enough to stumble in, following others!

After learning the truth, the three returned to their arrogant and condescending attitude.

"Hehe, so that's how it is. I was wondering, it's still understandable with you, we can sense that you are a cultivator, but the kid behind you doesn't have the slightest True Qi fluctuation. I thought we had encountered a powerhouse at the level of our grandmaster!"

The effeminate scholar opened the folding fan in his hand, fanning it slightly, while glancing at Bai He, who was standing behind Xiao Chen, as if unintentionally. A trace of contempt flashed in his eyes, and he said mockingly.

"Damn it! This guy looks decent, but he's actually a narrow-minded hypocrite. He was clearly scared by his own timidity, but he's mocking me instead. Does he think I'm easy to bully? If I were someone at your grandmaster's level, do you think I wouldn't make you kneel down and sing 'Conquer' for me!"

Listening to the scholar's words full of contempt and ridicule, Bai He's face darkened, and he cursed inwardly.

But a small impatience ruins great plans. Now was not the time to fall out, so Bai He could only suppress the anger in his heart and pretend not to understand. But in his heart, Bai He had already sentenced this guy to death: If he had the chance, he would definitely kill him!

"I don't know whether to say you are lucky or unlucky. Although you have entered the Realm of Longevity, the place you descended to after breaking through the void is really terrible. This sea area is a famous Forbidden Sea, and this island is even more... hehe."

The sinister man suddenly laughed as he spoke. Although the laughter was a bit cold, the killing intent emanating from his body had disappeared. It seemed that he was not planning to kill Bai He and Xiao Chen for the time being.

"Can you help us prepare some food?!"

Although the sinister man's words were a request, his tone was very strong. It was more of an order than a request.

But Xiao Chen agreed very calmly, because he knew that when you're under someone else's roof, you have to bow your head!

Watching Xiao Chen's figure slowly disappear, Bai He was about to follow him to discuss what to do next when his body suddenly lightened and he was pulled over. His face slammed directly into a deep softness, and a faint fragrance came to his nose. A charming figure flashed through Bai He's mind.

"Tsk, tsk, little brother, you are so handsome! I have never seen such a handsome young man like you. If the sluts in my sect saw you, wouldn't they go crazy with joy? Why don't you stay and let this sister take a good look at you?"

The charming woman grabbed Bai He and hugged him in her arms. Then, she gently stroked Bai He's face with her jade-like fingers, and said with a breath like orchids, her tone full of teasing and temptation.

But at this moment, Bai He didn't have the slightest ripple in his heart. On the contrary, his heart suddenly sank.

"Damn! Looks like I've been hijacked?!"

Although the charming woman in front of him spoke in a seductive tone and wore a beaming smile, Bai He saw nothing but coldness and warning in her crescent-shaped eyes when she smiled.
