Beast Taming: I can evolve indefinitely

Chapter 764 Undercurrents

Just as Bai Qi was studying the abilities of the cordyceps, the Green Dragon Clan Chief also came before Bai Qi and the others.

"Child of Prophecy, your dragon pet has a very strong bloodline talent, even stronger than our dragon race. Don't waste it."

The Green Dragon Clan Chief earnestly reminded Bai Qi, as if he were afraid that Bai Qi would bury the talent of the Cordyceps.

"Don't worry, senior. The pets that the leader raises will only become stronger and stronger, and there will be no waste."

Upon hearing this, Cordyceps immediately stood up and patted his chest to vouch for Bai Qi, while the Green Dragon Clan Chief nodded after a brief silence.

Although he didn't get to witness the strength of Bai Qi's other pets firsthand, none of them—Delta, Cordyceps, or Alpha in front of him—could be judged by their normal levels.

Although it's a bit far-fetched, the pets that Bai Qi raises are indeed very powerful, and theoretically, there shouldn't be any situation where their talents are wasted.

"In that case, I won't keep you any longer, Lord Bai Qi."

The Green Dragon Clan Chief paused, and two vortexes suddenly appeared beside him. On the other side of the vortexes were Bai Qiucha and Zhuge Chen.

"I've also learned about your companion's situation. It's true that he didn't use any evil methods to turn the corpses of our kind into undead. I will help explain this to the other dragons."

The Green Dragon Chieftain said, "However, the undead dragon is still a bit conspicuous. If possible, it's best not to summon it."

"Thank you very much."

Hearing that the Green Dragon Clan Chief was willing to help them explain, Bai Qi secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Although he was very confident in himself, Bai Qi was not that brave to fight against an entire dynasty on his own.

If it can be explained clearly, that would be the best.

"In that case, let's set off as soon as possible."

Bai Qichao bowed slightly to the Green Dragon Clan Chief to express his gratitude, and then called Bai Qiucha and Zhuge Chen to leave.

"Wait a moment."

Bai Qiucha walked directly out of the vortex, while Zhuge Chen, for some reason, remained in the same spot.

"What's wrong?"

Bai Qi was puzzled. Passing through the vortex, he saw Zhuge Chen squatting in front of a decaying cactus, lost in thought.

cactus?

Seeing this scene, Bai Qi seemed to realize something, and when he saw the fairy-like creature emerging from the cactus, he understood completely.

World Will, you better confess, Zhuge Chen is actually the protagonist, isn't he? He can encounter pet beasts wherever he goes, there's no other explanation but that he's the protagonist.

As for him, well, he's a standard growth-type cheat code, the old man type.

Sure enough, after waking up, the flower fairy affectionately kissed Zhuge Chen on the forehead, and then casually perched on his shoulder, as if she had made this place her own territory.

"Zhuge Chen, what have you done this time?"

Upon seeing this, Bai Qi immediately inquired, but Zhuge Chen looked up innocently and said, "I didn't do anything. I was just wandering around yesterday and found that this cactus seemed to be dying, so I thought I'd help take care of it, and that's how it ended up like this..."

"A dying cactus? In the Green Dragon territory?"

Bai Qi's lips twitched. He could accept finding a dying cactus in the desert, but in a place like the Green Dragon Territory, don't tell me it drowned from life.

"I never expected you to gain the approval of the flower fairy."

The Green Dragon Clan Chief also arrived in front of Bai Qi and the others. Upon seeing the Flower Fairy on Zhuge Chen's shoulder, he also showed a surprised expression.

"Flower fairies? Are they elves?"

Bai Qi asked curiously, "Does the Elf race still exist?"

"The elves have been gone for many years, but this place was settled by the elves thousands of years ago. We hope to awaken it with the powerful vitality of the Green Dragon Territory."

"But there had been no news for so many years, we all thought he was dead, we never expected that you would wake him up."

After listening to the Green Dragon Clan Chief's words, Bai Qi and his group finally understood, but their gazes toward Zhuge Chen became increasingly strange.

Even a flower fairy who has been on the verge of death for nearly a thousand years can be welcomed; Zhuge Chen is definitely the protagonist template.

"I didn't expect you to have such a powerful background."

Zhuge Chen gently patted the flower fairy's head and asked softly, "Would you like to come with me?"

Whoosh~

The flower fairy nodded vigorously, circled around Zhuge Chen's head a few times, and then began to dance on top of him.

"In that case, this flower fairy is yours to keep."

Seeing this, the Green Dragon Clan Chief smiled slightly and said, "It's getting late, please set off as soon as possible."

After a pause, the Green Dragon Clan Chief said, "If possible, please help keep an eye on the Dragon Emperor's safety."

"Is the Dragon Emperor safe?"

Bai Qi raised an eyebrow upon seeing this and immediately wanted to ask more questions, but the Green Dragon Clan Chief seemed unwilling to say anything more and went back to his original position to fall into a deep sleep.

"Can't these people just explain themselves clearly...?"

Seeing this, Bai Qi sighed helplessly and said, "Forget it, let's head to the East Sea as soon as possible and try to gather some intelligence before the Dragon Emperor arrives."

"good!"

……

East China Sea.

The salty sea breeze rushed into Bai Qi's mouth and nose, waking him from his meditation.

"Have we arrived?"

Bai Qi opened his eyes, looked at the vast sea in the distance, and stood up from Delta's back.

"The East Sea, the largest settlement of the Eastern Divine Dragon, I can finally witness it with my own eyes."

As the era when the dragon race was most active, the East Sea was a magnificent sight that historians have always wanted to know.

Although Bai Qi wasn't particularly interested in history, he didn't mind broadening his horizons.

After all, with so many dragons around, maybe we can grease some palms to get some materials suitable for Delta?

"Bai Qi, look over there."

Bai Qiucha pointed to the ground, and Bai Qi turned his head to look, only to find a cavalry force rapidly approaching a city ahead.

"Judging from their attire, they should be the Dragon Emperor's personal guards, the Dragon God Guards. The Dragon Emperor may be arriving soon."

"You arrived so quickly?"

Bai Qi nodded slightly upon hearing this and immediately signaled Delta to land. The three of them changed their clothes and appearances and then headed towards the city.

Because they needed to disguise their identities, Bai Qi and the others did not summon any pets. So when they arrived at the city, the Dragon God Guards had already taken over the city's defenses.

"Martial law is in effect in Jingzhe City. No one is allowed to enter or leave from this moment forward. All unauthorized personnel must leave immediately!"

A Dragon God Guard rode up to the city gate and announced the order in a loud voice. The people who heard the order obediently retreated.

The appearance of the Dragon God Guards was naturally to welcome the arrival of the Dragon Emperor. Those who failed to enter Jingzhe City before then could only consider themselves unlucky.

"It seems the Dragon Emperor is really coming."

Bai Qi glanced at the Dragon God Guards at the city gate a few times, then led Zhuge Chen and the other man to the side.

"Sure enough, there are runes engraved on the city wall. The Awakening of Insects, interesting."

Bai Qi walked to a city wall and carefully sensed it. Sure enough, he found traces of rune carvings on it.

"Although the Dragon Dynasty's rune technology is not widespread, it is used quite a bit by the government. I have tried it before, and once the city's protective array is activated, it is very difficult to break through by force."

"Acha, you've even attacked a city? Then you can't blame people for treating you like a villain, Bone Demon, tsk tsk, you must tell your teacher when you get back."

Upon hearing this, Bai Qi couldn't help but tease her, leaving Bai Qiucha with a helpless expression.

"I was cornered by them in the city, otherwise you might not be seeing me now."

"Hahaha... Who told you not to study runes properly? Otherwise, you wouldn't be in such a sorry state."

Bai Qi patted Bai Qiucha on the shoulder and said, "This city-protecting formation is not bad, but it's still a bit rudimentary, and..."

As he spoke, Bai Qi walked to the city wall and gently scratched a brick. The brick lit up and then spread out incantations, forming the shape of a gate.

Then, one by one, the city bricks flew up, and a large gate appeared in front of Bai Qi and the others.

"They actually left such a back door in the city's protective formation. I wonder if it's a backup plan or if someone did it on purpose."

"Bai Qi, do you mean someone might use this backdoor to carry out some plans?"

A glint of light flashed in Zhuge Chen's eyes as he said, "Could someone be planning to use this to assassinate the Dragon Emperor?"

It's only a little over a month since the Dragon Emperor's death is recorded. If someone really intends to assassinate him here, it would indeed match the records.

"It's hard to say; assassinating the Dragon Emperor won't be that simple."

Bai Qi shook his head, looking at the door in front of him, and said, "However, we cannot rule out this possibility, after all, history does not lie."

Thinking of this, Bai Qi took out his rune pen and started drawing on the surrounding rune array.

"Just to be on the safe side, let's leave them something, and see if any unlucky souls run into them."

Bai Qi carefully examined the rune array for a few moments, nodded in satisfaction, then looked around and summoned the husky.

"There should be quite a few similar back doors on this city wall. Shuke, deal with them all according to my instructions, and then come back to meet us."

"Remember, don't get caught."

"Don't worry, leave it to me."

Shuke nodded and then ran out along the city wall, while Bai Qi led the two through the back gate and into Jingzhe City.

"Bai Qi, what did you just do? Did you block up the back door?"

Bai Qiucha asked curiously.

"More or less."

Bai Qi shrugged and laughed, "Let's go find a good spot first; maybe we can even see the Dragon Emperor's true face."

"This guy is playing cryptic again."

Zhuge Chen and Bai Qiucha exchanged a glance and sighed helplessly, but they could roughly guess that what Bai Qi had just been fiddling with was definitely not something good.

"I suddenly feel a bit sorry for the villains who haven't even entered Jingzhe City yet."

The two glanced at the gradually closing back door behind them, and both saw sympathy in each other's eyes.

"What are you all still doing there? Let's get going!"
