Fights Break Sphere: Thunder Shattered

Chapter 539 Disrespecting the Elderly, Only Loving the Young

"Our Ziyan is quite something now. In just a few words, she not only got all the rare medicinal herbs in the square for free, but also made that powerful magical beast willingly and gratefully follow us."

You should know that the medicinal herbs here completely surpass the medicinal herb treasure trove that Xiaoyao Palace has 'borrowed' in recent years.

That is, the medicinal herb forest that was carved out of the ruins had a slight advantage.

This place contains the equivalent of all the high-grade medicinal herbs in the entire Wanyao Mountain Range.

I wonder if those old guys from the Dan Tower will be furious when they find out.

"Hehe, that's right!" Zi Yan was overjoyed by the praise, her delicate chin was raised even higher, and her swaying legs swung even more.

The two then talked about various things, mostly Zi Yan doing the talking.

Finally, exhausted from talking, Zi Yan lay down on Xiao Tian and fell into a deep sleep, her little mouth occasionally mumbling incoherently.

Xiao Tian gently placed Zi Yan on a bed made of Dou Qi, then his body flashed and he reappeared in a void space, where an old man stood in front of him.

The old man was dressed in a white robe and had a kind face, like a gentle old grandfather. However, Xiao Tian still sensed a powerful aura emanating from him, which was a manifestation of his extremely strong physique.

"I presume you are Elder Zhuli from Donglong Island? Thank you for protecting Ziyan all this time." Xiao Tian cupped his hands slightly to him. Not to mention that the other party was also a half-saint, just the fact that he secretly protected Ziyan was enough to earn Xiao Tian's respect.

Xiao Tian recalled seeing online that the cultivation world was divided into four realms: Ant, Little Friend, Fellow Daoist, and Senior.

These four realms perfectly illustrate the division of all realms and statuses, and this applies everywhere.

"Fellow Daoist? A friend who shares the same path of truth? That's an interesting title." Elder Zhuli smiled and stroked his snow-white beard. "Fellow Daoist Xiao Tian, ​​you flatter me. Protecting the future Dragon Emperor is my duty, no need for further explanation."

"I've come to see you today because I have something to discuss with you." Xiao Tian didn't intend to beat around the bush and went straight to the point. "I will be staying by Zi Yan's side for a while. I have two very important opportunities for her, which may even be able to change the current situation of your Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan and achieve unification."

Upon hearing Xiao Tian's words, Zhu Li's breathing quickened considerably. For Donglong Island, which was most loyal to the Dragon Emperor, seeing the Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan unified by the Dragon Emperor was the ultimate goal for each of them.

Zhu Li paused for a moment, then said seriously, "Since it's so important to Your Highness, I also think it's best for Your Highness to follow you." In his heart, however, he was thinking, "Do you think I have the right to disagree?"
"I enjoy dealing with cultured and perceptive people like Elder Zhuli; he's straightforward and easy to get along with," Xiao Tian nodded and laughed heartily.

"Hmm, could you perhaps move that thing behind you back a bit?" Zhu Kun asked cautiously, looking at the golden halberd behind Xiao Tian, ​​which was surrounded by a kaleidoscope of colors and exuded terrifying destructive power.

"Sorry, this thing was too naughty and ran out on its own. It's my fault." Xiao Tian said with a smile as he put the halberd back behind him.

Zhu Li pursed his lips helplessly. He said he was negotiating, but secretly he took out his weapon and shamelessly said that he ran away. "Your weapon has no spirit at all. How could it run away?"
It's utterly shameless, and shows no respect for elders whatsoever, only loving the young.

Having no other choice, Zhu Li had to admit defeat. Putting aside his sixth sense that it was 1 to 9, in a second, he was reduced to nine pieces.

Moreover, if I fight you, whether I win or not, His Highness might make things difficult for me in the future.

We, the ancient dragons of the Taixu clan, are reckless, but not stupid.

"I'm entrusting Her Highness to you. You must protect her well." Zhu Li looked at Xiao Tian earnestly, with a hint of pleading in his eyes. Although he knew that Xiao Tian was very strong and would protect Zi Yan well, he still felt uneasy and wanted to remind him, because Zi Yan was too important to their Donglong Island.

"Don't worry, unless I die, no one can threaten her." Xiao Tian still had some respect for the elders of Donglong Island, after all, they remained loyal even after the Dragon Emperor had been missing for so many years.

"Furthermore, if you are still worried, you can stay in my Free and Unfettered Realm for a while, where you can also protect Zi Yan." Zhu Li pondered for a moment, then nodded gently, "Alright."

This is indeed a solution. If I go back like this now, it won't be easy to explain to my clan.

Afterwards, Xiao Tian brought Zhu Li into the Free and Unfettered Realm and asked Elder Hai and the others to treat him well. As for interpersonal relationships, Elder Hai and Teng Shan were still the two responsible. Meanwhile, Teng Shan was currently the chief of staff of the Free and Unfettered Palace's Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

The reason he went to find Zhu Li was firstly to say hello, since Zi Yan would be staying by his side for quite some time.

Secondly, it was to avoid having an old man constantly watching over her in the void space while she was with Zi Yan, since she didn't have such a peculiar fetish.

After dealing with Zhu Li's matter, Xiao Tian returned to Zi Yan's side. After glancing at Zi Yan who was still sleeping, Xiao Tian began to organize the medicinal herbs in the square.

They quickly found the medicinal herbs they needed.

……

"Let's go! I haven't had this much fun in ages, haha!" A little girl's clear laughter rang out in the forest.

It was Xiao Tian and Zi Yan who had left the main hall on the mountain peak.

"Okay, then I'll spend this time showing you around and having fun." Xiao Tian affectionately ruffled Zi Yan's hair and said with a smile.

"Really? You don't want me to be a human treasure-hunting mouse again, do you?" Zi Yan asked suspiciously, clinging to Xiao Tian's back.

"Of course it's true, and you've already had those magical beasts plunder this place, so there's no medicinal herb left that we could possibly want."

"That makes sense, isn't it because you always make me lie to you like this?"

"Don't you dare slander me, I cherish you dearly."

"Do you think I'd believe that? When they're useful, they call me 'my darling,' and when they're useless, they call me 'my old hag.'"

Xiao Tian was speechless when he heard Zi Yan's words. They all just learned these things from stories.

"They don't learn the good things, they only learn these things."

"Hey~ You can't do anything with me~"

The two bickered as they headed down the mountain.

……

"Hey, you big bad guy, there seem to be a lot of people up and down. Are they trying to take over the mountain?" Walking through a dense forest, Zi Yan took a bite of a spiritual fruit that looked like a melon and handed it to Xiao Tian. "Let's go see what's going on."

After taking a bite, Xiao Tian sensed the situation down the mountain and nodded slightly. Of course, he had to pamper his backup.

"Let's go then, we'll watch the show from the shadows." Xiao Tian stuffed the spirit fruit back into Zi Yan's mouth and said with a smile.
