Want to Come Along?

Fang Zelin finished building the grave and erected a tombstone.

Then he left feeling refreshed.

When they arrived at the village entrance, a group of players had not yet left.

Seeing that these players had no intention of approaching him, Fang Zelin kept his distance and quickly left.

He needed to find a place to properly study the Treatise on the Supreme One's Response he had just acquired.

Ten miles below Ten Thousand Blades Peak.

A red panda crept up to a fruit tree. Seeing the short tree laden with berries, a hint of joy flashed in its eyes.

It immediately reached out its claw, grabbed a berry, and stuffed it into its mouth.

The berry was chewed a few times, but before it could swallow, a figure appeared beside it.

The sudden appearance of the figure startled the red panda.

When she turned around, she saw a man wearing a crown standing next to her.

The man glanced at the red panda briefly.

The red panda was startled by the other's gaze, and immediately coughed up the berry that had been in its throat.

However, when it coughed, a Xiao Xiao bone was coughed up along with it.

Upon seeing this, the middle-aged man standing nearby was momentarily stunned.

"You little demon, you haven't amounted to much, yet you've refined your horizontal bone and don't exude much Yao Qi, but rather a certain Spiritual Qi aura. Could it be that you've had some extraordinary encounter before?"

The man looked at the red panda in front of him, feeling extremely surprised.

He was the Great Marsh Dragon King, and he saw the little panda just as he flew over.

Sensing that the little panda possessed an unusual Spiritual Qi, they stopped to inquire further.

Unexpectedly, the little panda actually refined its transverse bone at this moment.

"Your Majesty, spare my life!"

The little panda had just refined its horizontal bone and, after a moment of adjustment, hurriedly spoke up in a panic.

The middle-aged man in front of it gave it an extremely unusual feeling, making it feel as if it wanted to bow down in worship.

Based on this feeling alone, it knew that the person in front of it was at least a demon king.

With such a demon king, it naturally couldn't muster the slightest thought of resistance.

"What's the panic? I don't eat demons."

Upon hearing this Great Marsh Dragon King waved his hand, signaling the other party not to be so tense.

"Tell me, why do you possess such abundant Spiritual Power, and how can you refine your transverse bones so quickly? You should know that other demons would need hundreds of years of arduous cultivation to reach this level."

"Moreover, you are quite intelligent. Such a level of cultivation probably requires a thousand years of practice to achieve, right?"

"Judging from your cultivation level, I estimate you have at most ten years of experience."

That's a nicer way of putting it, about ten years of experience.

To put it bluntly, that's all the cultivation you've achieved.

Hearing the other party's explanation, the little panda felt a little more at ease.

"Your Majesty, this humble demon doesn't know either. I was following someone around for a while recently, and gradually gained intelligence from being by their side. Today, I don't know how, I was able to speak."

The little panda dared not lie upon hearing this, and thought of Fang Zelin it had encountered before.

During the months the other party was here, it would sneak over whenever the other party was cultivating.

Just staying inside the cave abode makes one feel indescribably comfortable.

Although I don't know exactly why, I have some idea that this must be a benefit given to me by the other party.

"With one person?"

Upon hearing this, the Great Marsh Dragon King was first taken aback, then his heart suddenly leaped with excitement, "The person you're describing is a man, seven feet tall, with a handsome face, and seemingly a spiritual light in his eyes?"

The person the little panda mentioned instantly reminded him of the person his cousin had spoken to when he came looking for him here before.

The reason his cousin told him to keep a close eye on things was because, judging from the direction the other party was heading, they were likely to pass through Yueyang City.

In addition, there's what the little panda said about several months ago.

The time and place seem to match up!

"This little demon doesn't understand the difference between handsome and unattractive humans, but that person certainly looks much more pleasing to the eye than you, Demon King, and inspires a sense of closeness."

The little panda cautiously raised its head, looked at the other person, and then said something.

Upon hearing this, the Great Marsh Dragon King took a deep breath, his eyes gleaming.

Yes, such profound and mysterious True Person are rare and hard to come by; it's impossible for two of them to appear in succession.

This person must be the one my cousin told me to keep an eye on.

"Tell me, where is that person right now?"

Judging from the rich Spiritual Power emanating from this little panda, it was clear that the other party had been by its side for quite some time.

If we simply inquire with the other party, we should be able to find this mysterious True Person.

The little panda shook its head upon hearing this. "That person left several days ago, and I don't know where they went."

"Ah?"

Upon hearing this, the Great Marsh Dragon King was greatly alarmed, and felt an indescribable sense of loss.

"He didn't say anything to you before he passed away?"

The Great Marsh Dragon King was still unwilling to give up.

This guy is covered in such rich Spiritual Power; he must have been by my side for quite some time now.

If that's the case, did that person leave no message at all?

Upon hearing this, the little panda thought for a moment and then honestly replied, "That person asked me if I wanted to come along since he was leaving."

"The little demon, enjoying the freedom of this place, didn't follow."

"What!!!"

Upon hearing this, the Great Marsh Dragon King Swamp bristled with rage.

An immense pressure instantly emanated from his body, pressing the little panda beside him directly onto the rock.

The little panda was so frightened that it covered its head and trembled, not knowing why the other party had suddenly become angry.

It took the Great Marsh Dragon King a long time to calm his anger.

Looking at the trembling little panda beside him, he looked up at the sky and gave a bitter laugh.

He was a member of the Dragon Race, yet he was constantly spurred on by the seal of heaven and earth in his struggle for the body of a True Dragon.

Other Demon Race Dragon Race see the Dragon Race as carefree and long-lived, unaware of their hardships.

Cultivation is generally not easy for Demon Race in the world.

Everyone says that there is a destiny to immortality in this world, but no one seems to have ever encountered one.

But now, he saw other lesser demons encountering them.

However, after encountering the demon, it let it go.

If a mysterious True Person were to inquire of him, even he would immediately abandon everything and follow the master to serve him, just to receive a few words of guidance.

But this little demon, with such a celestial destiny...

The more the Great Marsh Dragon King thought about it, the more resentful he became.

I wanted to scold the red panda, but after thinking about it, I decided against it.

This little demon has already given up on his chance at immortality, so what's the point of him saying anything more?

Moreover, this little demon has only recently awakened its intelligence and probably doesn't yet understand the importance of a predestined connection with the immortals.

With that thought, the Great Marsh Dragon King turned and strode away.
