The Eternal System
System 45: Dragon Room
“Eh?”
Li Chen muttered in surprise with the intention of one of the guards about the ‘ dragon’ room.
“Dragon room?”
“If there is no interest, then the disciple is forbidden to enter into the dragon room!”
The two guards became increasingly violent and began to want to smash their spears towards Li Chen. He suddenly stepped back and raised his palms in front of his chest as if to show that he had no ill intentions.
“Hei hey... calm down first. I was just walking around, not looking for any problems..”.
“Then go quickly. What was inside the dragon chamber was something very important and secretive. Don't bother by appearing in front of the gate!”
One of the guards spoke bitterly towards Li Chen. And when he wanted to turn around, Li Chen heard the voice of a woman speaking from behind.
“What is this?”
He immediately turned his head back and saw Ying Yue walking gracefully towards him.
“Kak Yue?”
“Ah, Li Chen's. It turns out you are. What are you doing here?”
“I...just take a walk. And accidentally even reached the door of this dragon room”
“Hmm... so yes...”.
Ying Yue stood right beside Li Chen. His eyes changed from him towards the two dragon room guards. And as Ying Yue stared straight into their eyes, the two of them stooped in fear and respect.
“Sa-greetings to miss Ying Yue!”
“Already, raise your heads both”
Ying Yue was not particularly interested and pulled her gaze towards Li Chen after the two guards raised her head.
“Li Chen's. While you're still here, how about you come with me into the dragon room?” ask Ying Yue
“Eh? Me?!”
Li Chen was hesitant because he was offered like that. Since he had previously been intercepted by the two guards of the dragon room, moreover, he did not have the special permission said.
“Ah, sorry Brother Yue. Actually, I just accidentally got here. Besides, I also don't have the permission and interest to enter into”
Ying Yue who heard his words immediately stared in surprise. How could Li Chen not have permission? Though Ying Yue herself had already invited him to enter.
And before long, Ying Yue realized the location of her confusion. He turned his head and looked a little coldly towards the two dragon chamber guards. Because Ying Yue knew, that Li Chen had not been allowed to enter by the two of them before.
The cold gaze of Ying Yue made the two guards freeze silently and lowered their heads in fear. They immediately felt guilty for making an unnecessary move by refusing Li Chen to enter the dragon room.
“(Wire! Miss Ying Yue's gaze was truly terrifying!)”
“(What relationship does he have with this student?! I shouldn't have refused him to enter from the start! Finish me!)”
As the two guards grew frightened and covered in cold sweat, Ying Yue herself retracted her gaze and looked towards Li Chen.
“Already, let's go in. Who says you need permission to enter the dragon room?”
“I was told to….
Li Chen intended to explain to Ying Yue. However, the two guards instantly cut his words by opening the gate of the dragon room and smiled widely with a feeling of fear implied within.
“Si-please enter, miss Ying Yue and master Li Chen!”
Seeing the two guards opening the gate voluntarily made Li Chen open his eyes wide in surprise.
“Eh? What's the matter?” muttered Li Chen
“What did I say? Come on, come in here!” ying Yue Suh
Ying Yue also walked first into the dragon room. And Li Chen who was behind him immediately followed and entered with him.
The dark hallway. Nothing feels like there is life in it. Li Chen himself could not see anything after the outer gate was closed.
“Dark once...” Li Chen's muttered
Ltak…!
The flickering sound of a finger from Ying Yue made the torch hanging on the wall light up and illuminated the entire passageway to the front.
Boff... boff... boff…!!!
“Wah...”.
Li Chen was surprised when he looked ahead to where the vast different room was. A place full of hands spun high up like a tower. The wall is filled with bookshelves and is in harmony with the height of the stairs that are on its side.
It looks like a library tower. The ancient books and scrolls that were inside, really looked sacred as if they could not be carelessly touched.
“One great. This... library?” muttered Li Chen as he walked up to stand in the middle
“Kot more like that. The dragon hall was the place of knowledge of the Liliang academy. Here there are hundreds, even thousands of scrolls of cultivation techniques and also martial techniques since 1000 years ago” explained Ying Yue
“1000 years ago?!” sahut Li Chen with both eyes widened strongly
“True. All of these were scrolls and records left behind by the great warriors and cultivators of that era. And Liliang academy, we get 300 sacred scrolls stored as precious as one's life”
Ying Yue's explanation made Li Chen duck silently and think about how valuable the scrolls and records were. If one scroll was the same as one's life, then the secrets and techniques contained in it would be very great and powerful.
For a moment, Li Chen had thought of learning from the scroll. However, Ying Yue replied as if she could read his thoughts.
“If you are thinking of trying to learn about the scroll, then forget about it first for now” Ying Yue said
“Eh?”
“Why? Because the technique of martial arts was too powerful and it would be dangerous if it fell into the hands of the wrong person. Only selected people can take knowledge from within that record” explained Ying Yue
Li Chen who heard of this felt that something had happened inside the Liliang academy. It felt like it was a trigger for why Ying Yue explained it in such an uneasy tone.
Li Chen's knowledge and high curiosity had existed since he was in his old world when he became a director. Therefore, her mouth and mind moved unconsciously and directly asked Ying Yue.
“Is something happening?”
Ying Yue had already expected that Li Chen would definitely ask. He stared for a moment at her and sighed as if it was a heavy heart to explain.
“Past...”.
Before he could get his words out, there came the voice of a man who cut off Ying Yue's words.
“Spreading information carelessly, Ying Yue?!”
