The Heavenly Saber Novel - Chapter 276

Chapter 276 Dragon Lake Black Flood Dragon

In this wilderness, the two sides fell silent. The atmosphere was a little awkward. After all, Li Qing had treated her like this just now, so he didn’t know how to ease the tension between them.

Chang Wudi was clearly really angry. He lay on the grass and didn’t even look at Li Qing. He took out a small porcelain bottle from his interspatial ring and poured out a pill to take.

She tilted her head and thought carefully. She seemed to think that this was not enough, so she took out another jade box with a layer of soft white inside.

Apparently, this soft skin was used for external application. Smearing it on the buttocks could relieve edema and pain. However, the position of Chang Wudi’s injury on her butt was somewhat awkward. It would be inconvenient for her to apply it on her own. Moreover, there was a grown man watching from the side.

Of course, it was impossible for her to ask Li Qing to help her apply the medicine. In this way, she would be completely exposed to him. No matter how stupid she was, it was impossible for her to do such a thing.

It was not convenient for him to apply medicine, so it was even more impossible for him to ask others to apply medicine. When such a dilemma occurred, Chang Wudi’s little face immediately revealed a conflicted expression.

Seeing her conflicted appearance, Li Qing couldn’t help but laugh in his heart. He took the initiative to say, “Put up a tent to cover it. Don’t worry, I won’t peek at it. Although it’s inconvenient for me to apply medicine, I can always reach it with both hands.”

“You’re not allowed to peek! Otherwise, I’ll beat you up!” Chang Wudi glared fiercely at Li Qing, then climbed to the corner of the mountain to set up a tent and went inside to apply medicine.

…

Chang Wudi’s butt was injured and his movements were inconvenient, so he was not in a hurry to find the great demon’s misfortune. He stayed in the wilderness that night.

The two of them didn’t talk much. Chang Wudi was angry with Li Qing and set up their tents to sleep at a distance.

Nothing happened overnight.

By the morning of the second day, Chang Wudi’s injuries were much healed. A Xiantian expert had a strong physique, and with the help of a miraculous pill, his recovery speed was naturally extremely fast.

“When the opportunity arises, I will definitely give you a good beating!” On the way, she was still thinking about it, hating it so much that her teeth itched. When she saw Li Qing, her gaze was filled with unkindness.

“You still want to beat me with your strength? Your butt itches again, don’t you? Be careful, I’ll catch you and beat me up again.” Li Qing laughed proudly. With his tyrannical body, even if he stood and let her hit him, he probably wouldn’t be able to move.

Hearing this, Chang Wudi’s body trembled, and a trace of fear arose in his heart. He felt as if his butt was numb again.

Speaking of which, since she was a spoiled child, no one dared to hit her heavily. Even if she did something wrong, it was just a few casual curses.

However, Li Qing was different. He really dared to hit her fiercely. He didn’t care who she was, nor did he care if she was a girl or not. He didn’t show the slightest bit of pity for her. Yesterday, he beat her to death, and he remembered her deeply.

It was really possible that he would make such vicious remarks. If she provoked him, she might give her a good beating. Thinking of this, Chang Wudi immediately didn’t dare to be arrogant anymore and could only glared at Li Qing fiercely.

“Where is the location of that demon?” Li Qing asked casually.

He hadn’t expected that he would come out for such a long time this time, so he felt somewhat anxious. Although the matter in Jiangyuan City was on the right track and his defense was very strong, he was always a little uneasy. There were too many martial artists who had come recently, so there might be people who would cause trouble.

“Let’s walk for more than half a day. It’s not too far.” Chang Wudi was not in a hurry and limped forward slowly.

“Too slow. Let me take you away.” Li Qing did not say anything, nor did he obtain Chang Wudi’s consent. He directly pulled her arm and rushed forward.

“Ahhhh!! What are you doing? My butt hurts so much, I can’t walk fast!” Chang Wudi was pulled forward by Li Qing. Her speed became faster and faster, and her legs could only keep running hard. She was dragged into her injuries, causing her to grin her teeth.

Along the way, she shouted as she walked and hit Li Qing’s shoulder with her fist.

Li Qing saw that her expression was indeed very painful. It was not a disguise. Obviously, the wounds on her buttocks had not completely healed. It was not suitable for her to attack so quickly over such a long distance. She could only stop.

“How annoying!” Li Qing muttered to himself, and then he held her up horizontally.

“Hey, how can you be like this?” Chang Wudi was caught off guard and was hugged by Li Qing. Two red clouds immediately floated on her face and she struggled hard to get down. However, Li Qing’s arm was as hard as iron. She could not break free even if she struggled.

Li Qing ignored her. This fellow was just a bear child, and he did not treat her as a woman. Why should he pay attention to whether a man or a woman was bestowed or not?

After struggling for a while, Chang Wudi gradually quieted down. He allowed Li Qing to run forward with his waist crossed, and a strange feeling arose in his heart.

After all, she had never had such intimate contact with any man, especially when this guy’s hand was still hugging her newly injured butt…

After running for more than half a day, Li Qing finally arrived at his destination and released Chang Wudi.

As soon as Chang Wudi came down, he pushed Li Qing away with disdain. He was still chanting, “I hate you so much. Get lost!”

Just like that, the two of them noisily walked forward. What appeared in front of them was a very quiet village. The village looks quite large, with lots of houses and vast farmland.

“Eh? Didn’t you say that there is a great demon here? Why is it a village?” Li Qing asked doubtfully.

“This is a village. As for the Great Demon, it’s not here.”

“Then why did you bring me here? Hurry up and find the Great Yao. Don’t dawdle.”

Chang Wudi seemed to see that Li Qing was eager to return. Out of the desire to fight him, he was not in a hurry to eliminate the demons. He said slowly, “Don’t worry, the Great Demon is not far from here. We need to pass through the village. You will understand what happened later.”

The two of them walked into the village and saw that there were many villagers working in the fields. They were naked and covered in sweat. They were smooth and shiny.

Looking carefully, Li Qing was surprised to find that these farmers were all very tall, muscular, and seemed to be quite powerful.

Why are ordinary villagers so powerful? It feels like this village isn’t ordinary.

Very quickly, someone discovered Li Qing and Chang Wudi.

Someone shouted, “Young Master Chang, you’re here.”

This shout immediately attracted everyone’s attention. Many people surrounded him and greeted Chang Wudi warmly.

“I have found a helper this time. I will definitely be able to get rid of that demonic beast.” Chang Wudi patted his chest and said confidently.

Li Qing asked curiously, “Do you know these people?”

‘”That’s right. When I passed by this village and heard rumors that a great demon was stirring up trouble here, I wanted to get rid of it. I didn’t expect that demonic beast to be so powerful. I was injured by it twice in a row. It was during this process that I became familiar with these people.”

Li Qing sized it up and found that most of the people here were tall and majestic with extraordinary strength. He couldn’t help but ask, “Your strength doesn’t seem to be small. Could it be that you cultivated some kind of body refining technique?”

“We did come up with some crop tricks, but the effects weren’t too great.” One of the elders smiled and said, “The reason why our strength is so strong is mainly because of the water of the Dragon Lake on the mountain.”

“Dragon Lake?” Li Qing looked in the direction they were pointing at. Behind the village, there was a large mountain that was several hundred feet tall and covered a vast area. This so-called Dragon Lake should be located inside the mountain.

“That’s right. Our village has lived here for generations and has been drinking the water from the Dragon Lake for hundreds of years now.” “Actually, our ancestors were originally as thin and frail as ordinary people, but after drinking the water of the Dragon Lake for generations, their bodies gradually became stronger.” The old man spoke with confidence and hospitality, “Actually, our ancestors were also as thin and frail as ordinary people, but after drinking the water of the Dragon Lake for generations, they gradually became stronger.”

“Is there anything special about that water?”

“We don’t know either. In the past, outsiders came here to fetch water, but after some research, we found that it was useless. As time went by, no one paid any attention to it.”

It was clear that drinking the water of the Dragon Lake had made these people strong, but after outsiders had collected water and studied it, there was no effect. This was truly puzzling.

Most of the villagers’ bodies were so strong, and their strength was less than 1,000 jin. Those who were strong had a strength of nearly 10,000 jin. They were practically comparable to warriors at the tenth level of the Houtian realm. Li Qing did not believe that the water of the Dragon Lake was not strange.

Most likely, the water of the Dragon Lake would take a long time to drink before it would be effective. If it was only drunk for one or two years, it wouldn’t make any difference at all. However, the people of this village had lived here for generations and had drunk the water of the Dragon Lake for hundreds of years. Perhaps it took such a long time for them to undergo a transformation.

Li Qing suddenly regained his senses. He had come here to eliminate the demons. Why did he care about this? I’m really full. I’m just holding on and worrying. Even if the water of the Dragon Lake had some strange effects, it was not worth his attention. With his current strength, he did not value this point of improvement.

“Where is that great demon?” Li Qing asked.

“It’s in the Dragon Lake. Originally, people from our village lived here well, but ten years ago, a flood dragon suddenly flew into the Dragon Lake and occupied it. Our villagers who want to fetch water are often killed by it. Every time they risk their lives, they can’t bear to be disturbed by it.”

“There’s no time to delay. Let’s go to the Dragon Lake and take a look.” Li Qing said to Chang Wudi.

“Yes.” Chang Wudi nodded.

“You two young heroes must be careful. In the past, there were quite a few experts who came here to eliminate demons, but they were all killed by that great demon. It was just a matter of adding a few more undead souls.” The old man warned.

…

Li Qing and Chang Wudi bid farewell to the villagers and walked towards the back mountain. The Dragon Lake was located at the top of the mountain. This mountain was not very tall, and with the strength of a Xiantian expert, it reached the peak in less than half an hour.

Li Qing couldn’t help but be shocked when he looked around. He didn’t expect the Dragon Lake on the top of the mountain to be so spectacular. It was over a hundred miles in radius. It was simply a wondrous sight of heaven and earth.

He originally thought that the Dragon Lake was located at the top of the mountain and its area was definitely very small, but in reality, it was not. Not only was the Dragon Lake not small, it was also very large, surrounded by a circle of mountains.

The mountain peak they were on was actually only one of the small hills that surrounded the Dragon Lake. With the mountain as the lake bank, one could imagine how enormous this Dragon Lake was.

“The flood dragon lives in the Dragon Lake all year round. How should we kill it?” Li Qing suddenly thought of a serious problem.

“Go into the water and fight it!” Chang Wudi rolled his eyes, as if he felt that asking such a simple question was too stupid.

“Are you kidding me? Go into the water to fight it? I’m afraid our combat strength will be reduced by more than half after we go into the water!” Li Qing was speechless.

Although Xiantian experts could rely on their True Essence to move in the water, and because all the acupoints in their body were connected, they did not need to be afraid of suffocation, so entering the water was not a terrifying thing.

However, he could only survive in the water, but his combat strength could not be fully displayed. After all, there was nowhere to put his strength in the water, and the undercurrents were surging. Fighting against a terrifying flood dragon was simply courting death.

“There’s nothing I can do about it. This flood dragon is very cunning. It won’t come ashore at all. I tried to seduce it several times, but it failed. Therefore, I can only enter the water to fight.” Chang Wudi explained.

“Didn’t you say that flood dragons often hurt villagers who come to fetch water? Let’s pretend to be people who come to fetch water and lure it out for a try.” Li Qing suddenly thought of a way.

Chang Wudi curled his lips and said, “I’ve already tried it. It’s useless. If you don’t believe me, you can try it yourself.”

Li Qing would not listen to her words and still decided to try seducing this flood dragon. He came to the shore with great fanfare, took out a bucket of water and pretended to fetch water, deliberately making the sound of water crashing.

As a result… Li Qing had been drawing water there for half an hour, but the surface of the lake remained motionless, and the flood dragon never came out.

Standing by the water and looking around, it was completely silent. Only the wind blew on the surface of the lake, causing layers of ripples.

“It’s impossible for the flood dragon to keep staring at the lake. Maybe it didn’t see it.” Li Qing did not give up easily and was very patient. He stayed by the lake for half a day.

Suddenly, Hua Hua–

A burst of noise rang out, and the surface of the lake began to roll violently. A huge whirlpool appeared. A boundless amount of demonic energy surged out from the bottom of the lake.

“The flood dragon is out!” Li Qing was overjoyed.

“Did he really seduce you?” Chang Wudi’s eyes widened.

A huge dragon head stretched out from the lake water. Its gaze was cold as it looked at Li Qing. A trace of disdain flashed across its face. It was as if it saw an ant. Opening its mouth, it spat out a black pillar of water.

Normally, it would have used this water column to kill humans who came to fetch water, but this time, it didn’t work.

Boom!

The black water column that contained boundless demonic power was extremely powerful. It instantly smashed into the mountain wall, blasting out a large hole and sending rocks flying.

Li Qing had already made preparations, dodged in time, and stood to the side.

“Flood Dragon, do you dare to fight me?” Li Qing shouted!

His voice rumbled like thunder as it landed on the surface of the lake. Normally speaking, a flood dragon that had cultivated to this level would possess a very high level of intelligence. After all, those who could become demonic beasts had already activated their intelligence. However, most demonic beasts usually had low intelligence and needed a long time to evolve.

The strength of the flood dragon in front of him was so strong, proving that it had cultivated for a very long time. Its intelligence should be very high, and it could understand part of the human language.

Sure enough, after hearing Li Qing’s words, the flood dragon actually revealed an angry gaze. It raised its head and roared. A terrifying dragon aura was emitted, and the lake instantly trembled violently. Countless waves were rolling about.

Boom!

These tides began to speed up far away from the surface of the lake, from slow to fast, overwhelming tides of water surging towards the shore.

“This is the Flood Dragon’s innate ability to control water!” Li Qing’s eyes narrowed.

Demonic beasts did not possess Heaven and Earth Dharma Forms like humans. Most of them only possessed extremely tyrannical bodies.

However, it seemed that the heavens were using it to make up for this flaw. Many demonic beasts also had an advantage that humans did not possess, and that was their innate divine ability!

Demonic beasts of different races often possessed different innate abilities! And there might be more than one!

Controlling water was a terrifying innate divine ability that most dragons possessed.

Although the lake water seemed to be ordinary water, after being controlled by the flood dragon, the power of the condensed black tide was several times greater. If a martial artist was careless, they might be seriously injured.

Li Qing’s body was so strong, of course, there was no need to be afraid of this. Not only did he not need to be afraid, he also took the initiative to charge forward against the black tide.

Boom!

Li Qing used his powerful strength to split open the black tide, riding through the wind and waves, and rushing towards the flood dragon.

This flood dragon was quite cunning, staying in the middle of the lake all the time and refusing to approach, even if it was dealing with seemingly weak humans. Therefore, if Li Qing wanted to get close to the flood dragon, he had to enter the middle of the lake.

Of course, this wasn’t a big problem for Xiantian experts. Li Qing stepped on the water and opened his True Essence. He was able to walk on the surface of the water for a short period of time, causing ripples to appear on his feet.

However, these lakes were already under the control of the flood dragons. The water surface was rough and violently tumbled, and it was not so easy to walk. Li Qing felt that his feet were constantly slipping, and he couldn’t stand steadily. If this continued, he would probably fall into the water.

He immediately made up his mind and used all of his strength to step on the surface of the water, causing it to sink into the ground. On the other hand, he borrowed his strength to soar into the sky and jump towards the flood dragon.

Kill!

Li Qing jumped into the air and waved his fist. The purple light shone on the surface of the lake, turning the lake purple-blue. His fist smashed down like a purple sun, fiercely hitting the head of the flood dragon.
