Chapter 0884: Return Trip

On the second day, Li Fengyi and the others returned to Western City. After meeting up with Li Luo, they set off for the Dragon's Fang Mountain Range immediately.

However, there were two more individuals on their return trip.

They were none other than Li Lingjing and Li Feng.

Li Fengyi and the rest were quite surprised when they saw that Li Lingjing had regained her spirit. It was even more shocking to learn that she had regained her talent.

After all, Li Lingjing was one of the top geniuses in the previous generation of the Twenty Banners. She was really well known back then, and everyone expected her to become the most outstanding expert from the Western Region's Li Family.

Unfortunately, no one had expected her to get into an incident with a True Devil Other right before the Twenty Banners’ selection was held. Everyone sighed in dismay learning that this left her in ruin even though she was lucky enough to survive.

Most people had expected her to be one of the eligible candidates for the Dragon's Head once she was selected into the Twenty Banners.

It was unfortunate that she was forgotten as the other talents in the Bloodline of Heavenly Emperor Li rose up.

At the head of the Dragon Vessel.

Li Luo was sitting cross-legged while he enjoyed his fragrant tea. It was a relaxing scene as he watched the ship sail through the clouds with the vast land underneath.

He had spent close to a month in the Western City Dark Domain. However, it had been a really fruitful trip for him. Not only had he obtained a Sacred Infant Fruit, he had also managed to reach the Tri-Radiance Glass Fiend Tier.

Although he was still in the Fiend Body Tier, the protective shield that came with being a Tri-Radiance Glass Fiend was enough to pose a big headache for any Fiend Finisher with less than three hundred feet worth of Fiend Dipper energy.

"I've finally caught up," Li Luo muttered to himself.

He was just a Fiend Palace Tier cultivator when he came to the Twenty Banners half a year ago. There was a huge gap between him and the other top Banner Leaders, such as Li Qingfeng and Lu Qingmei. This was something that even he himself could not deny.

In fact, it was not a matter of how talented they were. It was simply a difference in the resources available in the inner divine continent compared to the outer divine continent. There were multiple sub-tiers between the Fiend Palace Tier and the Fiend Finisher Tier. Even though Li Luo had a few tricks up his sleeve to help him win against stronger opponents, talents like Li Qingfeng were not ordinary individuals either. They would surely possess their own aces. As such, Li Luo had tried to avoid any direct confrontation with them as much as possible.

Fortunately, he had Harmony to help him bridge the gap. Although there was still a gap even with Harmony, it was narrow enough for him to make up the difference with his other tricks. This allowed Li Luo to be a considerable force within the Twenty Banners too.

After half a year of hard work, Li Luo had entered the Glass Fiend Tier at long last. Coupled with his Tri-Radiance Glass Ring, he was finally confident enough to directly face off against the top talents from the Twenty Banners with his individual strength.

As for the upcoming Twenty Banners Dragon's Head selection battle, he also felt more assured about it.

He understood that the other elites were not people he could look down upon. While he was catching up, they were surely improving as well.

As Li Luo thought about all this, he took out the five intimidating dragon fangs from his pocket sphere.

"I wonder if I can get a single drop of Dragon Fang Essence from these dragon fangs," he thought to himself. He stared at the objects with eyes full of expectation. He could barely wait to start the extraction process and see if there were any surprising results.

He could only proceed with his Myriad Resonances Dragon Fang Sword Formation training once he obtained a Dragon Fang Essence. This was a Transcendent Duke Art that he had been dying to learn for a really long time.

"If you'd like to get a Dragon Fang Essence, I suggest you don't do it yourself." A voice drifted over as Li Luo was pondering it.

He lifted his head and saw Li Lingjing climbing up the stairs. Dressed in a light-yellow gown with green ribbons, she looked really charming with a white, lustrous glow on her fair face.

Two strands of green ribbons hung down her shoulders, falling on her plump breasts and outlining her graceful curves.

Her slender waist was wrapped with a graceful and tight silk belt. As the wind blew against her, her dress adhered closely to her body, highlighting her slim and curvy figure.

There were many male members of the Green Nether banner on the deck at this point. When Li Lingjing appeared, they could not help but stare at her secretly and whisper among themselves.

Li Luo also took a few looks at her as she walked over. With a smile, he commented, "Cousin Lingjing, you are such a beauty. It’s truly a loss for the previous generation of the Twenty Banners that they didn’t get to meet you."

Li Lingjing's appearance was indeed charming. With the recovery of her spirit, she seemed to have regained her self-confidence, making her even more dazzling.

She knelt down on the cushion beside the tea table. With her red lips slightly curled up, she said, "Cousin Li Luo, you are too sweet with your words."

"I don't have any outstanding traits, except for the fact that I'm honest," Li Luo replied sincerely.

"What a good trait. Coupled with your handsome face, your luck with the ladies must be incomparable," she responded with a smile.

"The appearance I have merely came from my parents. I still prefer others to focus on my inner beauty," Li Luo stated seriously.

Hearing this, Li Lingjing covered her mouth and giggled softly. "Cousin Li Luo, if you continue to be so funny, I'll truly want to be your maid."

Li Luo suddenly looked bitter and responded, "Cousin, stop playing tricks on me. I dare not let you be my maid. You are too outstanding—I am afraid I will not be able to explain it to my fiancee in the future."

With a curious look, Li Lingjing asked, "Do you really have a fiancee?"

Li Luo nodded and said, "How could I lie about that?"

Thinking back, it seemed like Jiang Qing'e had called off their engagement when she left previously. Strictly speaking, maybe she was no longer his fiancee?

When he thought about this, the tea in his hand did not feel sweet anymore.

It was not like their feelings for each other would change without a piece of paper, but it still felt a little off without it.

Li Luo let out a sigh in his heart. He had wanted to draft a new engagement with Jiang Qing'e after breaking off the previous one. However, she had ignited her Heart of Light, and he naturally forgot about all these small matters.

"Aren't you from the outer divine continent? So is your fiancee also from there?" Li Lingjing continued to ask curiously.

Li Luo nodded.

Li Lingjing chuckled again and responded, "Cousin Li Luo, you really impressed me. Even after coming to the inner divine continent, you still remember your lover. There are many noble girls in the Dragon's Fang Lineage for you to pick from, as long as you are willing to ask."

With a smile, Li Luo said, "I have never felt that way"

Li Lingjing nodded and continued with great interest, "But even if you don't think so, with your talent and background, you will definitely become one of the top bachelors in the Heavenly Origin Divine Continent in the future. When the time comes, there will be many peerless beauties falling in love with you. By then, maybe you'll still miss your old lover. But how will she feel when faced against so many opponents prettier than her?"

Li Luo was taken aback when he heard this. His expression turned a little complicated.

Prettier opponents? How would she feel?

Would the big white swan really think about such things? Seeing his reaction, Li Lingjing acted as if she was speechless and did not probe any further. She picked up the teapot and poured herself a drink.

After a while, Li Luo stopped thinking about it. As he looked at the young lady with a strange smile on her lips, he felt like Li Lingjing's temperament had become a little... devilish.

This must have been the result of being entangled with the Soul Eater True Devil.

However, in a way, it also made her seem a little more charming.

Li Luo shook his head and did not think about it further. Coming back to the topic, he tapped on the five mottled dragon fangs.

"Cousin Lingjing, why did you tell me not to do it myself if I wanted a Dragon Fang Essence?"
