The Rise of the Dragon Warrior
Ch 490's. Pagodas
For a moment Long Fengxia glanced towards Shen Long behind his veil and hoodie hat, while thinking of a way to deal with the situation.
If their bets continued, Long Fengxia not only became Shen Long's servant, but also earned a huge loss.
" If this keeps up, then I'll be last." Long Fengxia sighed heavily, while staring at his Plaque.
Inside the Plaque Long Fengxia only focused on looking at his own rank, thus not realizing that there was a strangeness from Shen Long.
" Even though you're wearing a veil and hoodie, I can sense that you're stealing my eyes." Said Shen Long, leaning his body against a large tree.
" Ciii." Long Fengxia let out a cold snort, as Shen Long learned that he was glancing towards the young man.
It was not that Long Fengxia liked Shen Long, but rather that he was thinking hard to deal with the situation.
" Say me if you want to give up. But apart from being my servant, I also asked for compensation because you have already exhausted me like this." Said Shen Long, although his gaze was fixed in another direction.
Long Fengxia clenched his teeth, wanting to tear Shen Long's face apart, as the young man was instead asking for compensation.
A moment Long Fengxia smiled meaningfully, until it came to mind to take advantage of the situation.
" Okay, I'll compensate you. But you have to help me get the black pearls." Said Long Fengxia, because with the help of Shen Long he could restore his order which was already at rank 16.
" All right, I'll help. As long as you would kneel before me and admit your defeat." Shen Long spoke casually, without looking at it in the least.
Hearing those words, Long Fengxia tried to restrain himself. Kneeling down and admitting his defeat was far more difficult than fighting against a Cultivator stronger than him.
But because there was no other choice, Long Fengxia lowered his ego, despite feeling unacceptable if kneeling before Shen Long.
" Alright, I admit defeat." Said Long Fengxia, kneeling before Shen Long.
Shen Long smiled smugly, as the haughty and arrogant girl had admitted her defeat.
" Mm-hmm... As compensation I want something for you." Said Shen Long, as he looked towards Long Fengxia who was kneeling in front of him.
" What do you want to do?" Long Fengxia asked, while raising his vigilance, then stayed away from Shen Long.
Of course Long Fengxia was being cautious, because he thought that Shen Long would do something to him.
Shen Long smiled widely, then got up to his feet while staring towards Long Fengxia.
" You think I asked for your body? I'm not interested at all." Shen Long shook his head as he walked towards Long Fengxia who was pointing his sword towards Shen Long.
Hearing the words from Shen Long, Long Fengxia felt himself as if humbled, because the young man with a mediocre face also disliked him.
" I just want the Spirit Core you have." Said Shen Long, sticking out his hand.
Hearing the remark, Long Fengxia wondered, why did Shen Long know that he had the Golden Bull Spirit Core on his Ring.
" All right, I'll give it to you." Said Long Fengxia, then gave the Golden Bull Spirit Core along with the Basic level Space Ring to Shen Long.
Naturally Long Fengxia gave the Space Ring to Shen Long, as he realized the young man did not have a storage ring.
" It looks like you're bribing me." Said Shen Long, taking the Space Ring, then wearing it and storing the Spirit Core in his Ring.
Shen Long gave a small nod, then walked away from the place, followed by Long Fengxia.
During the journey, Shen Long no longer disturbed Long Fengxia's quarry, even occasionally he helped the girl in order to obtain the black pearl faster.
But when he met the other Cultivator group that was doing battle against a group of Demon Beasts, Shen Long was happy to help them in order to kill him quickly.
" Fuckin' boy." Some Cultivators swore inwardly, as Shen Long snatched their quarry.
" Let's watch out later. I'll report this incident to our seniors." Said one of the figures, for not accepting the treatment from Shen Long.
" The idiot who doesn't know gratitude." Said Shen Long, then darted towards Long Fengxia who was in a place far enough away.
Hearing the remark, the group put on an ugly face because that young man was the one who was said to be an idiot, for not knowing the rules in the hidden world.
On the other hand Shen Long who was already at the place Long Fengxia was waiting for, now immediately continued on his way.
" Why are you bothering them?" Long Fengxia asked, because this time he did not want to disturb anyone else.
" Don't you enjoy it before?" Shen Long turned around to ask, because during the bet, Long Fengxia also took the hunt of the other Cultivators.
Long Fengxia smiled bitterly, because earlier he was also unknowingly with what he was doing, for the sake of winning the bet.
Of course, due to their previous actions, there will be many Cultivators who hold grudges against Shen Long even Long Fengxia, because they have taken many hunted Cultivators.
The more they walked towards the middle of the hidden world, the abilities of the Demon Beasts also increased, although their cultivation levels were still the same.
Nonetheless, the number of Demon Beasts was also getting smaller, so for some Cultivators it was still able to survive.
" It seems like this hidden world is already governed by its creator." Thought Shen Long, because sometimes they only met Demonic Beasts no more than four.
Not long ago Shen Long's gaze was fixed on a pagoda-shaped building that was quite far from where they stood.
" It seems that inside the pagoda it holds something precious." Said Shen Long, then darted towards the pagoda which was quite far away from them.
" But the aura in this place is very powerful." Long Fengxia felt that something was amiss in that place.
Although the aura was very strong, yet Shen Long and Long Fengxia did not dampen their spirit to approach the pagoda.
Not long after that Shen Long and Long Fengxia had been near the pagoda that had the size to penetrate the clouds.
There were also some Cultivators who had arrived trying to find luck in the pagoda.
YOOOO!
There was a roar from the direction of the pagoda, until dozens of skulls came out from the ground that was pitch-black.
The skulls scattered in various directions to block the Cultivators who wanted to enter the pagoda.
Even the two skulls that were emitting black steam also came to where Shen Long and Long Fengxia were standing.
