Fantasy: Ten Dragons Compete for the Throne, I, the Villain, Choose to Play it Off

Chapter 68 Xuanyuan Aoxue in a Dream
"Young clan leader, you're awake!"

Just then, a burly man saw Li Qiye and immediately came up to him with a joyful expression.

"This is wonderful! Everyone knows you fought the Demon Tiger and remained unconscious, which terrified us. Thankfully, you've woken up."

"By the way, the little girl you just rescued has also woken up."

"Young Clan Leader?"

Li Qiye was taken aback and frowned slightly.

"I actually became the young clan leader in the goddess of war's dream?"

"But why did the demon tiger fall into a coma after the fight?"

"How did I fall unconscious when I wasn't even injured?"

Li Qiye thought to himself.

This is ultimately a dream world, an unreal world, so it's normal for it to have logical problems.

"As for the little girl he mentioned rescuing, could she be a female war goddess?"

Li Qiye couldn't help but feel a little strange.

However, he then nodded and said, "Take me to see her."

"Yes, Young Patriarch."

The burly man nodded hastily, clearly indicating that Li Qiye, the young clan leader, held considerable prestige within the tribe.

Following the burly man, they soon arrived at an open space where twenty or thirty children, around ten years old, were waving their fists on a lawn, making childish noises.

Seeing Li Qiye approaching, his eyes shone with admiration.

"Young clan leader, you're finally awake!"

"Young clan leader, when will you teach us boxing?"

"Young clan leader, I want to learn martial arts from you!"

The children couldn't help but shout, as if they were seeing their idols.

"Let's wait a few days."

Li Qiye smiled and nodded at the children.

The children immediately became excited.

"Everyone, please keep quiet."

The middle-aged, burly man in charge of teaching the boxing began to reprimand them, but his words were full of awe: "If you persist in practicing boxing every day, one day you will become as powerful as the young clan leader."

Upon hearing this, Li Qiye couldn't help but chuckle, never expecting that he would one day be regarded as a role model.

Just then, he saw a petite girl sitting on the side of the lawn not far away, staring blankly at the group of children practicing boxing with her slender hand supporting her chin. Her eyes were full of envy.

Li Qiye's heart stirred. This girl had an extremely delicate temperament and was about fourteen years old. She looked somewhat similar to the Goddess of War, and was obviously the Goddess of War in her youth.

"As expected, that is the Goddess of War, Xuan Yuan Aoxue!"

"But her current temperament is completely different from her sharp and domineering temperament, or rather, it is the complete opposite!"

Li Qiye thought to himself.

He was about to walk over when a deep voice came from behind him, carrying a hint of concern.

"Wen Shi, are you alright?"

"I'm fine now."

Li Qiye turned around and answered with a smile.

The speaker was an elderly man with white hair, whose age was unknown. His face was full of wrinkles, and he held a cane made of animal bone in his hand.

Since it's within the dream of the female war goddess Xuanyuan Aoxue, one must naturally play a good role in order to lead the female war goddess away.

But the next moment, Li Qiye was stunned.

What did the old man call him?
"Wen Shi?"

Li Qiye's mind raced. He thought of the female war goddess named Xuanyuan Aoxue, so wouldn't his name be Xuanyuan Wenshi?

Soon, Li Qiye contacted someone, namely Emperor Wen, who was one of the Five Emperors of antiquity.

Li Qiye was shocked, but he didn't show it.

But Li Qiye immediately realized something was wrong.

The burly man had just said that he had rescued the female warrior, so she probably wasn't from a tribe and might not even share the same surname. These thoughts crossed his mind.

Li Qiye remained calm and walked towards the old man with a smile.

"It's good that you're alright."

The old man walked over with a cane, not very fast.

He looked Li Qiye over carefully, then breathed a sigh of relief: "If anything happens to you, I don't know how I'll explain it when your father comes back."

After saying this, he began to complain again:
“You’re really bold. That demonic tiger is at the level of a barbarian king, at least one realm higher than you, and you dare to charge straight at it. That’s incredibly reckless.”

"You absolutely mustn't be so reckless next time, understand?"

The old man looked worried.

Li Qiye smiled and nodded without saying anything.

The main problem was that he didn't know what to say; he simply didn't know how to address the old man.

He knew nothing about this place, and the less he spoke, the less likely he was to make a mistake—a truth that holds true in any era.

The old man rambled on for a while, but seeing that Li Qiye remained silent, he felt helpless.

"That's it. You have the same personality as your father. Try to be more careful in the future."

"Ok, I see."

Li Qiye finally responded.

"Good to know, that's all."

The old man glanced at Li Qiye and said meaningfully, "Go see the girl you risked your life to save. This girl is no ordinary person!"

After saying this, he leaned on his cane and slowly left the place.

"You're quite remarkable yourself, actually managing to see that the Goddess of War is no ordinary person."

Li Qiye looked at the old man's hunched back, his eyes flashing, and then turned to look at the female war god sitting there.

"Yueyao, it's a real pity that you can't enter the Goddess of War's dream world."

Li Qiye thought to himself with a look of regret.

After all, Li Yueyao had an excellent relationship with the Goddess of War in her previous life, but she had never seen such a young Goddess of War. Perhaps she would be extremely interested in this.

After thinking for a moment, Li Qiye walked directly towards the Goddess of War.

Anyway, this is her dream.

Besides, I can be considered her savior, so communication shouldn't be a problem.

Just then, the Goddess of War noticed Li Qiye. She quickly got up from the ground, her large eyes filled with gratitude as she looked at him. She made an odd gesture, bowed deeply, and said:

"Ji Ye, thank you for saving me."

Himeya?

Li Qiye felt a sense of doubt.

Why would the female war goddess call him "Ji Ye"?

Didn't that old man just call him "Wen Shi"?

Judging from the attitude of the female war goddess Xuan Yuan Aoxue, it seems that they knew each other for a long time, and it wasn't a chance encounter on the road that Li Qiye thought he had just met and then saved her.

This is a bit embarrassing!
Li Qiye had originally wanted to ask the other party's name, but now it was clearly impossible for him to do so.

If they've already said that, it wouldn't be right for you not to know them.

Who knows if he calls himself Xuanyuan Aoxue in his dream?

"It's okay, it's just a little effort."

Li Qiye thought for a moment and then answered modestly.

To everyone's surprise, the goddess of war burst out laughing upon hearing this.

She has a very cheerful personality, which is quite unlike the female war god that Li Qiye knows.

"Stop pretending. I saw you almost get killed by that demonic tiger."

"Huh? Where did your injuries go? How did they disappear?"

The female war goddess looked at Li Qiye's arm with her bright, lively eyes.
