The Three Xiaos' Shock: The Senior Actually Raised a Dragon

When Zhao Gongming saw that the Three Xiaos did not seem very interested.

He merely smiled faintly and said nothing more.

However unfathomable the senior was, words alone could not prove it.

Even if he said more, the Three Xiaos might not believe him.

He might as well wait until they saw the senior for themselves.

Then, there would be no need to say much.

"In that case, junior sisters, come with me."

With that.

Zhao Gongming shook his body.

Clouds formed beneath his feet, and he flew beyond the void.

Watching Zhao Gongming's departing figure, Yunxiao's breathtakingly beautiful face showed a trace of helplessness.

"Honestly, Senior Brother Gongming."

"It's such a short distance around the Interception Sect. How could there be an expert?"

"Even if there were one, wouldn't Master have discovered him?"

Bixiao, standing beside Yunxiao, heard the helplessness in her voice.

She could not help smiling. She gently patted Yunxiao's shoulder and said softly.

"Senior Sister, it's all right."

"Senior Brother Gongming is so excited. He probably wouldn't lie to us."

"Besides, Senior Brother Gongming has now reached the Peak Daluo Golden Immortal realm."

"With his discernment, I doubt he could have been mistaken."

Though Bixiao said this, her words were mostly meant to comfort Yunxiao.

A trace of helplessness flickered in her eyes.

Qiongxiao, however, paid no heed to their views and said excitedly.

"Come on, Sister. We've been on Jin'ao Island for a long time anyway, so this is a good chance to go out and clear our heads."

Seeing Qiongxiao's silly expression, Yunxiao sighed helplessly and said.

"All right, let's go."

As her words fell.

Yunxiao and the other two immediately vanished from where they stood.

Following close behind Zhao Gongming, they headed southwest of Jin'ao Island.

Before long.

They came to a stop.

"We're here."

Looking at the mountain before him, Zhao Gongming lowered his voice considerably.

Hearing Zhao Gongming's words.

Yunxiao and the other two looked ahead in surprise.

When they saw the mountain range before them, its spiritual Qi dim.

Their beautiful eyes all went somewhat blank.

After a while.

Yunxiao said, a little bewildered.

"Senior Brother Gongming, did you get the wrong place?"

"The expert is here?"

Seeing Zhao Gongming nod, Bixiao, who stood beside him, asked in puzzlement.

"Senior Brother, did you get the wrong place?"

"This is the land farthest from the Interception Sect's cultivation ground. Beyond it lies the ocean."

"Because of interference from the ocean's power, the spiritual Qi here is thin, and the power of laws is entirely absent."

"Even though it's near the Interception Sect, few living beings ever come here to live in seclusion."

"In a place like this, there couldn't be an expert, could there?"

Hearing Bixiao's analysis.

Yunxiao and Qiongxiao, standing nearby, both largely agreed with her.

Zhao Gongming, however, smiled and explained calmly.

"When I first passed through here, I thought the same."

"But where that expert lives in seclusion, spiritual Qi is abundant and the power of laws permeates the air. It's completely different from the surroundings here."

"You'll understand when you see it."

Having said that, Zhao Gongming paid no attention to the Three Xiaos' somewhat peculiar expressions.

He pointed into the distance and said.

"That mountain peak ahead is where the senior lives in seclusion."

"Follow me."

The four descended and landed on the ground.

Zhao Gongming casually waved his hand.

Gongming's appearance was revealed once more.

Seeing what Zhao Gongming had done, and that even his presence was concealed.

The Three Xiaos standing beside him could not help being taken aback.

"Senior Brother Gongming, what are you doing?"

Zhao Gongming explained, "This was how I looked when I met that expert."

"You'd best disguise yourselves too, and keep as low a profile as possible."

Hearing Zhao Gongming's words, Yunxiao immediately felt something was strange.

"Senior Brother, you don't have to be so careful, do you?"

"As Jie Sect Disciples, our status is hardly low."

"There's no harm in saying so. After all, we have a Saint protecting us."

Hearing this.

Zhao Gongming shook his head with unusual seriousness, his face grave.

"No!"

"Since the senior lives here in seclusion, he naturally has no liking for fame and profit, or for conflict."

"If we let him know that we are Jie Sect Disciples."

"And with the Investiture of the Gods Calamity upon us, he would inevitably become entangled in karma, which would displease him."

"So, in a moment, you three must also conceal your presence. Remember, you must not reveal your strength or identities."

Hearing Zhao Gongming's words.

Yunxiao and the other two were taken aback.

They opened their mouths, wanting to say something.

But when they saw Zhao Gongming's serious expression.

They suppressed the thoughts in their hearts.

Still, they could not help feeling that Senior Brother Gongming was taking this a little too seriously.

Just what kind of expert was he?

To make a powerhouse like Zhao Gongming, who was on the verge of entering the Quasi-Saint realm.

So careful!?

Although the Three Xiaos did not quite believe that the man could be all that formidable.

Seeing Zhao Gongming's attitude.

They also felt a faint curiosity.

Thus.

Yunxiao and the other two transformed as well.

Each concealed her own cultivation presence.

They also altered their appearances slightly.

But their overall bearing did not change much.

Walking together.

The four really did look rather like siblings.

Seeing that there was little trace of cultivation left about them.

Zhao Gongming finally nodded.

He led the Three Xiaos to the top of the small mountain in short order.

To Lin Tian's residence.

"We're here."

Zhao Gongming reminded them softly.

The Three Xiaos were taken aback and instinctively looked at the courtyard before them.

The courtyard was ordinary, nothing special.

It looked just like a house in the mortal world.

Disappointment appeared in the Three Xiaos' eyes.

I thought there was some kind of expert!

But it's just an ordinary household!

Senior Brother really is taking this a little too seriously.

Just as Yunxiao was thinking this.

A handsome young man dressed in a simple cloth shirt.

Carrying an earthenware jar.

Walked out of the bamboo house.

The moment Lin Tian emerged.

The eyes of Yunxiao and the other two locked onto him.

When she noticed the faint, concealed fluctuations of a Heavenly Immortal about him.

Yunxiao was even more disappointed.

Well, that's that!

This young man is only a cultivator in the Heavenly Immortal realm.

He hasn't even reached Taiyi.

How could he be an expert?!

Just as these thoughts crossed Yunxiao's mind.

Suddenly.

A presence unique to the Dragon Clan.

Came from the young man's direction.

Yunxiao's body trembled.

What a pure Dragon Clan presence!

In this utterly ordinary little place, there's actually the domineering presence of the Dragon Clan?

Realizing this, Yunxiao instinctively looked toward Bixiao and Qiongxiao.

She saw a trace of surprise on their faces as well.

Clearly, they had noticed the presence too.

After all.

Jin'ao Island, where they lived, was also an immortal island at sea.

It had an inseparable connection with the descendants of the Dragon Clan.

Though their relationship could hardly be called good.

They still came into contact often.

So they were naturally extremely sensitive to the presence of the Dragon Clan.

And the Dragon Clan presence Yunxiao had sensed just now.

Though somewhat faint, it carried a trace of the Ancestral Dragon's presence!

Where exactly did it come from?

Though this trace of presence is somewhat faint, its foundation must at least belong to someone who has attained the Daluo Golden Immortal realm!

But this young man's cultivation presence is only that of a Heavenly Immortal. Clearly, it wasn't him who released that presence just now.

A strange thought flashed through Yunxiao's mind.

Her gaze fell on the earthenware jar in the young man's hands.

Inside the jar, a little goldfish was swimming back and forth.

Is it the fish this young man is raising?

Yunxiao probed with her gaze, letting it fall on the little goldfish's forehead.

The next moment.

Her pretty face could not help changing!

She could not help drawing a sharp breath!

"...Huh? Dragon horns?!"

"!!!"

Upon noticing this.

Yunxiao's heart jolted, and a look of astonishment spread across her face.

"???"

"Isn't this little goldfish Yazi?!"

"This young man actually caught the Dragon Clan's crown prince and kept him as a pet fish?"

At that thought.

Yunxiao was filled with disbelief!

She gazed at Lin Tian in astonishment, a grave look flashing across her eyes.

It seems this young man isn't as simple as he appears...

Never mind whether he recognizes this fish with dragon horns.

The aura it gives off alone isn't something an ordinary Heavenly Immortal could withstand...

Just as she was thinking this.

The young man's actions suddenly made Yunxiao and the other two freeze.
