Did He Have Any Unusual Hobbies?

"Many parties provide the platform, one party performs the show..."

Longwang Clan muttered something under his breath, a glint of light flashing in his eyes.

"That's a good idea. When it comes to flattery, your White Tiger Clan is definitely more skilled."

Bai Po glanced at him. "I wonder which side called out 'Elder Lu' first."

"Cough cough,"

Longwang Clan cleared his throat, then changed the subject.

"Let's not discuss that for now. You mean, we all need to put in the effort so that Elder Lu's disciples can make a difference in the process?"

Bai Po nodded. "Otherwise, why would Senior arrange for his disciples to come here? Could it be that he really wants the resources of our Four Sacred Beast Race?"

He gently shook his head. "Human Race value experience; experience means going to new places. And once you go, you're expected to achieve something."

Longwang Clan nodded in agreement.

He was naturally aware of these Human Race customs.

He then spoke up, "Now that the Human Race has decided to attack our Dragon Race first, the stage is naturally set on our side. It should be our collective effort to help this disciple of our Dragon Race make a name for himself. Is that alright?"

He emphasized the words "all parties contributed" in particular.

"Certainly,"

Bai Po nodded.

"Regardless of their clan or disciple, since they belong to Senior Lu, it is imperative that all of us contribute our efforts; there is no doubt about that."

"OK,"

Longwang Clan nodded.

"Then I'll go back now and talk to Gu Chen about it."

"Huh?"

Bai Po spoke up, looking at the Longwang Clan with some surprise.

"Ever since I decided to follow Senior Lu, I feel like you've become increasingly stupid?"

"What's going on? Is it because Senior Lu is too strong that he doesn't need to use his brain?"

"Just spit it out, stop with the sarcastic remarks."

Bai Po shook his head and said, "Are you really planning to just go and tell Gu Chen like that?"

"Should we say we're planning to give him a chance, or should we say we're giving him an opportunity?"

"What if he doesn't want to? Then the Human Race won't attack your Dragon Race?"

Longwang Clan frowned slightly.

"How?"

Bai Po asked, "Do you think I'm wrong?"

Longwang Clan shook his head:

"I didn't expect that, I really didn't expect that."

He pondered for a moment and said, "Then it seems this matter is not suitable to be discussed openly."

"That's true. Doing something deliberately like this just falls short. It's best to go with the flow and do it just right, so it doesn't seem like we're trying to curry favor, and we can still achieve our goal."

"That's right."

Bai Po nodded, looking at the Longwang Clan with approval.

"You are a promising young man."

Longwang Clan glared at him.

"How about this?"

Bai Po suggested, "Tell me first, what hobbies or habits does he have?"

"Is it a hobby or a habit...?" Longwang Clan pondered.

"It's like carving words on your testicles, that's a hobby too," Bai Po reminded him.

Longwang Clan's brows furrowed instantly, but then relaxed, and he said:

"Perhaps... I do have a hobby."

"Oh?"

Bai Po was somewhat surprised.

Tell me.

Longwang Clan raised his paw and pointed to his head. "I think he probably quite enjoys standing on the heads of the strong."

Upon hearing this, Bai Po's face showed a surprised expression:

"Is it really true that someone has such a unique hobby?"

He only intended to throw out a brick to attract jade, but he didn't expect it to actually attract jade.

Standing atop the heads of the strong is indeed a rather peculiar hobby, even more unusual than carving words on testicles.

Longwang Clan nodded and recounted the incident of Gu Chen standing on Long Yi's head earlier.

"As the Dragon Ancestor of our clan, Long Yi's strength and status are beyond question."

"As for why Gu Chen stood on the Dragon Ancestor's head, the other party didn't explain, but I have some guesses. Perhaps it was a way of conquering."

After all, standing on top of someone's head implies being a little higher.

Furthermore, this matter itself was also at Elder Lu's behest; standing on top of someone's head is not only a hobby, but very likely also a mission.

"If you put it that way..."

After listening to the Longwang Clan's account, Bai Po spoke up.

"That is indeed one direction."

"That's settled then. It just so happens that the four forces that made the biggest commotion on the Human Race this time are those four, and we also have four on our side, so it's a perfect match: one disciple, one head."

"This attack on your Dragon Race was spearheaded by Li Baimei, so above Li Baimei, Gu Chen is in charge."

"I think that's fine too," Longwang Clan nodded.

However, Bai Po spoke up to remind him:

"Li Baimei's strength is not weak, and with so Human Race experts present, creating an opportunity for Gu Chen to rise above him will likely not be easy, and may even require paying a price."

"How?"

Longwang Clan spoke up, glancing at Bai Po.

"Are you saying that my Dragon Race is unwilling to accept defeat?"

Bai Po shook his head:

"I'm just afraid that your Dragon Race will underestimate the strength of the Human Race as before. You must know that this matter cannot afford to go wrong in the slightest. If something really goes wrong, who will take the responsibility?"

At this point, the Longwang Clan's expression became more solemn.

He pondered for a moment, then said, "I do have an idea."

Tell me about it.

"Anyway, your reinforcements won't arrive anytime soon, so our Dragon Race will have to deal with this on its own for a while."

"It would be better if our Dragon Race appeared slightly weaker from the start, allowing these Human Race to lower their expectations. This would allow the Dragon Ancestor and I to conserve some of our strength, just as you did when you arrived. We can then unleash our full power against Li Baimei at the crucial moment, so that he won't be prepared."

Bai Po listened to the Longwang Clan's idea with a hint of surprise in his expression:

"It's quite surprising that you could say such things. For so many years, the Dragon Race has been eager to display its strength openly, yet you still managed to think of hiding some of your power."

Longwang Clan smiled faintly, "One is influenced by one's company; Gu Chen is the real expert in this regard."

Upon hearing this, Bai Po smiled and shook his head, "I see, then it's not surprising."

After saying that, Bai Po said, "Now that this matter has been agreed upon, let's proceed according to this plan."

Longwang Clan nodded, leaving behind a sentence:

"Don't leave my Dragon Race to fight alone."

Then we left this place.

Bai Po followed closely behind, returning to where Lu Changzhi was.

At this moment, beside Lu Changzhi, the corpse of Tiger Ancestor had completely decomposed, unable to maintain its original form, and lay shriveled on the ground.

The bead in front of it was now shimmering with light, displaying its precious aura.

It's done.

Bai Po's expression changed drastically.

This process, which would have taken countless years to complete, has now been accomplished in such a short time.

Bai Po immediately wanted to take the bead and examine it carefully.

But after thinking about it, he put the idea aside for the time being and turned his gaze to Lu Changzhi.

"Never mind, let's wait until the senior wakes up before we talk about it."

Without the guidance of my predecessors, I wouldn't have witnessed the completion of this bead.

He'll wait until his senior wakes up; if the senior doesn't want it, then he'll take it.
