A Successful Wish, the Golden Rooster Stands on One Leg
That makes sense.
Upon hearing this Longwang Clan nodded.
"Then I'll go ask Elder Lu right away."
Having said that, Longwang Clan instantly vanished from the spot.
Long Yi watched his departing figure, pondered for a moment, and then his figure flashed, arriving at Gu Chen's location.
"Senior Long."
Upon seeing Long Yi arrive, Gu Chen stood up and spoke.
His mission wouldn't have been completed so smoothly without the other party's cooperation.
Of course, his master's arrangements played a significant role in this, but he was still grateful for the care and attention the Dragon Clan had shown him since he arrived in the Dragon Race.
"How are things? Are you adapting well to the Dragon Race?"
Long Yi's form shifted, transforming into human shape, and he asked with a smile.
Gu Chen nodded. "I'm adapting quite well."
Although he had only been in the Dragon Race for a short time, even measuring it in "days" seemed too long, the resources provided by the Dragon Race made him feel right at home.
Yes, it feels like being back home; you can get almost any resource you want.
"That's good." Long Yi nodded slightly.
Gu Chen looked at Long Yi and asked, "Senior, has something come of your business?"
"There are indeed some things,"
Long Yi nodded, "But I mainly wanted to discuss this with you."
"You flatter me, senior."
Gu Chen smiled and shook his head.
"Please feel free to ask if you need anything."
Long Yi looked at Gu Chen, pointed into the distance, and said:
"According to my information, the Human Race is heading towards the dragon Dragon Race. Judging from their posture, it seems the Human Emperor Hall intends to attack our Dragon Race first."
"Oh?"
Gu Chen was slightly taken aback.
Who are these people?
"Everyone's here," Long Yi said.
"They've all come?"
Gu Chen's astonishment turned into surprise.
"Yes,"
Long Yi nodded and then gave a brief account of what had happened at the Human Emperor Hall.
"I see..."
After listening, Gu Chen looked enlightened.
He knew about the matter at the Human Emperor Hall; he had even watched a bit of the so-called "live broadcast" before.
However, he hadn't expected the Human Race to have such strong execution capabilities.
"So, is it because... there are no Atavism offspring on the Dragon Race side?"
Gu Chen looked at Long Yi, paused briefly after speaking, and then asked:
"So, what does the senior mean?"
"Now that the Human Race has arrived, they certainly won't let this go easily. Moreover, they've brought out a whole host of powerful warriors. Although my Dragon Race has some strength, we will inevitably face considerable pressure."
"I see you have a way of concealing your presence. If possible, I wonder if I could trouble you..."
Long Yi spoke earnestly, "Could you help hide the Atavism in our clan?"
"Of course, that's no problem."
Gu Chen nodded, but then changed the subject.
"However, I think your meaning goes beyond this, senior?"
Long Yi looked at Gu Chen and smiled, "Actually, I already asked the Wangzu to consult Elder Lu. However, it will take some time for them to come and go. As for what to do, we still have to listen to Elder Lu's instructions."
"Of course, before that, there have to be some precautions, right?"
As they spoke, Long Yi couldn't help but recall Gu Chen's layers upon layers of disguise.
"I see,"
Gu Chen understood.
As he spoke, Gu Chen's heart stirred slightly.
Perhaps this is an opportunity.
Gu Chen recalled how many times during previous missions had it all happened so coincidentally.
When you arrive at a certain place, you just happen to encounter certain things.
In fact, it could be said that the system guides itself to complete many tasks.
Although it was just checking in before, now it's different...
Gu Chen recalled the idea of thinking in reverse that he had seen in the sect in the past, and an idea immediately came to him.
"System," Gu Chen whispered in his mind.
"Host, please speak," the system said.
"To elevate my martial arts skills to a higher level."
"Wish successful. The daily wish check-in task is now being released."
Gu Chen wondered to himself: Where will the sign-in location be this time?
It has to be said that the last wish I made was quite ambitious, and the difficulty was considerable.
Therefore, this time he came up with a more secure solution.
Lower your expectations a little, and the daily check-in task might be easier.
Just then, a system notification popped up:
[Wish Sign-in Task: Sign in above Li Baimei]
[Task Requirements: Stand on one leg like a golden rooster, stepping on Li Baimei to complete the check-in.]
[Task Reward: Achieve high-level martial arts proficiency]
"This mission..."
Gu Chen glanced at it, and his brows immediately furrowed.
"If I remember correctly, Li Baimei should be one of the top experts of the Human Race, right? So, stepping on his head..."
Gu Chen paused, feeling a chill run down his spine.
Standing on one leg isn't a problem, he can do that, but the issue is...
Would Li Baimei be willing to let him step on her?
Obviously unlikely!
"So, judging from the difficulty of this task, my wish this time... is still a bit too high."
Gu Chen shook his head, temporarily putting aside his thoughts, looked at Long Yi, and asked:
"Senior, what is my master's opinion on this matter?"
Long Yi shook his head. "Judging by the time, you shouldn't have seen your master yet."
In mid-air.
A horde of cultivators, like a dark cloud pressing down, surged towards the direction of the Dragon Race. Wherever they passed, countless people looked up in awe, deeply moved.
"I don't think there's ever been anything like this before. What's going on here?" Someone looked at the crowd in the sky with a surprised and doubtful expression.
Someone nearby heard this, turned around, and smiled.
"It seems this gentleman hasn't been following recent events. They're heading towards the Dragon Race to fight Dragon Race!"
"To fight against the Dragon Race?!"
The man's eyes widened in disbelief.
"But aren't the Dragon Race quite powerful? As one of the Four Sacred Beast Race, even top-tier forces would have to think twice before attacking them, right?"
Upon hearing this, the person in the distance gently shook his head:
"With all four of our Human Race's top powers mobilized, even if the Dragon Race is strong, can it possibly stand against our entire Human Race on its own?"
"Really?" The man's expression changed, and seeing the other party nod, a glint of light flashed in his eyes. "If that's the case, doesn't that mean we can take advantage of the chaos and make some profits?"
The person not far away didn't speak again, but just smiled slightly, and then managed to blend into the large crowd.
Similar situations occurred repeatedly along the route where crowds passed.
As they converged along the way, the entire team grew increasingly larger.
At the very front of the line.
Qian Guiyi looked at Luo Zhen and asked:
"Little Luo, do you think there are any dragons that have Atavism Dragon Race?"
As soon as he finished speaking, some of the powerful figures around him turned to look at Luo Zhen.
"Are there any Atavism offspring...?"
Luo Zhen pondered for a moment,
"This is indeed not a matter that can be determined easily right now. Although the Desolate Ancient Emperor Stele has given its assessment, it cannot ultimately be said that it was the work of the Atavism cub."
"However, if I had to guess, I think there probably is."
"Oh?"
Qian Guiyi smiled slightly, "Why do you think that?"
Luo Zhen gently shook his head. "I've heard that the Beast Race hasn't had any offspring that Atavism for many years, but now suddenly, all the major Sacred Beast Race have them. If that's the case, why would the Dragon Race be the only one missing out?"
After a pause, Luo Zhen looked at Qian Guiyi again, his tone calm:
"Besides, even if there are no offspring that Atavism, does that mean we Human Race shouldn't take action against them?"
