"You mean, the Ice Flame Jiao was killed by Chen Xiao?"
Blacksmith Zhang looked at his disciple and asked.
"Yes."
Zhang San nodded.
"He took both the body and the crystal core?"
Blacksmith Zhang asked again.
"No, he didn't want it. He said he killed the Ice Flame Dragon just to eliminate harm for the people."
Zhang San shook his head.
"People from harm?"
Blacksmith Zhang looked strange.
"Then what? He really didn't want it?"
"I really didn't want it, he left."
Zhang San scratched his head when he said this.
"However, something went wrong with the body of the Ice Flame Dragon. It immediately decayed and the crystal core was not found."
"The corpse is rotting? The crystal core is gone too?"
Blacksmith Zhang was stunned again, thinking about it, and couldn't help but laugh.
"Just say, fine, how could he not want it?"
"What do you mean? Are you saying that the decay of the Ice Flame Dragon has something to do with Chen Xiao?"
Zhang San asked.
"The old guy from Shanhai Tower said the same thing at the time, but Chen Xiao really didn't do anything."
"It must have something to do with him, otherwise why wouldn't I want it?"
Blacksmith Zhang shook his head.
"Maybe there is some trick that you haven't noticed yet."
"Well, I still think he is quite righteous."
Zhang San frowned.
"So that's what happened."
"Haha, asking for the Ice Flame Dragon doesn't mean it's unjust... If a large number of sea monsters really come to kill you, won't you also protect Xuanyuan Town?"
Blacksmith Zhang smiled.
"Um."
Zhang San nodded.
"Okay, let's go to blacksmithing. Don't go to Dihai yet..."
Zhang Tiejiang said.
"Okay, Master."
After Zhang San finished speaking, he entered the side room.
"decay……"
Zhang Tiejiang narrowed his eyes and guessed Xiao Chen's method.
It is really not easy to do this under the eyes of so many powerful people.
Especially since the Ghost King is still here, it will be even harder to hide it from him.
"The ice flame dragons are here... is it soon?"
Blacksmith Zhang muttered something, picked up the tea, and drank it in one gulp.
…
On the other side, Xiao Chen took Wang Pingbei to the best restaurant in Xuanyuan Town.
"Brother Chen, didn't you say you would find time?"
Wang Pingbei asked.
"Yeah, but then I thought about it, the tail of this ice flame dragon must be fragrant, and I can't wait."
Xiao Chen nodded.
"Anyway, I have nothing to do now, so I just came to eat."
"All right."
Wang Pingbei nodded.
"Two gentlemen..."
The waiter came up to greet me and entertained me.
"We brought our own ingredients and asked your best chefs to process them for us...price is not an issue."
Xiao Chen said directly.
"no problem."
The waiter nodded.
"You two, please come upstairs."
"good."
When they got upstairs, the waiter called the cook over.
Xiao Chen's mind entered the bone ring and cut off a piece of the ice flame dragon's tail.
The Ice Flame Jiao is so big, even though its tail is only broken in part, it is still two meters long.
Once, I couldn't eat it at all.
"this one."
Xiao Chen took out a large piece of tail from the bone ring.
"Isn't this strange beast very powerful?"
The cook was considered experienced and said immediately.
"Well, it's quite powerful. I just killed it in the Imperial Sea... Ice Flame Jiao, have you heard of it? This is its tail."
Xiao Chen nodded.
"Ice flame dragon? I seem to have heard my grandfather mention it, saying it is an unparalleled evil in the depths of the Imperial Sea..."
The cook was even more surprised.
"It also came to Dihai?"
"Um."
Xiao Chen nodded, it seemed that this cook could do it, at least he had heard of it.
"Can you do it?"
"Yes, just leave it to me."
The cook looked excited, this is top-quality food.
As a top chef, seeing top-quality ingredients is as exciting as a man seeing top-notch beautiful women.
"Haha, let's try your craft."
Xiao Chen smiled.
"Okay, just wait."
The cook responded and left holding a large piece of tail.
Just when Xiao Chen was ordering other dishes, the Ghost King came in from outside.
"Why are you here?"
Xiao Chen was a little surprised.
"Why, you're not welcome?"
The Ghost King said as he sat down.
"..."
Xiao Chen was speechless, I didn't say welcome, why did you just sit down?
"Senior, how did you know we were here?"
"Now you, Chen Xiao, are a celebrity. You can find out just by asking around."
The Ghost King poured himself a cup of tea, simmered it, and took a sip.
"It's not even evening yet, are you ready to eat? What's delicious?"
"Haha, since senior is here, let's taste together... the tail of the Ice Flame Dragon."
Xiao Chen smiled.
"I've given it to the cook. It will be ready later."
"The tail of the ice flame dragon? What a good thing."
The Ghost King's eyes brightened slightly and he looked at Xiao Chen.
"The Ice Flame Dragon is rotten. Does it have something to do with you? You even took away the tail. There is no reason not to use such a big corpse."
"What does it have to do with me? I'm just not greedy."
How could Xiao Chen admit it and shook his head.
"I was thinking that I would just cut off the tail and give the rest to you...Senior, have you finished dividing it up? Why don't you take it out and let the cook cook it too?"
"I got a piece of shit..."
Seeing that Xiao Chen was still pretending to be stupid, the Ghost King couldn't help but cursed.
"Um?"
Xiao Chen's face was full of surprise.
"Senior, what's your share? The Ice Flame Dragon's fart?"
"What nonsense..."
The Ghost King's face darkened.
"The corpse has rotted away and has no value at all... and the crystal core is gone too."
"how so?"
Xiao Chen frowned.
"But what happened to Shanhailou? Yes, that must be the case. If I didn't give it to them, they would have bad intentions. They thought, 'What we can't get, we can't let others get it,' so they destroyed the body of the Ice Flame Jiao.
.”
"..."
The Ghost King is speechless, can this also blame Shanhailou?
"Good guy, you and Shanhailou are really mortal enemies. You left, and they said it was you who did it...and now, you say it was them who did it."
"What? They're still shouting "Catch the thief?" It's really too much."
Xiao Chen patted the table.
"Senior, don't believe what they say."
"Okay, okay, I don't believe you either."
The Ghost King shook his head helplessly and stopped talking about the Ice Flame Dragon.
He finally figured it out, but this guy definitely wouldn't admit it.
"The old guy asked me to bring you something, saying that Shanhailou will not let you go."
"Ha, it sounds like I will let Shanhailou go."
Xiao Chen sneered.
"..."
The Ghost King looked at Xiao Chen, was he serious?
In the outer world, few people dare to say that.
That is one of the second floors, one of the most powerful forces in Tianwaitian!
"Senior, what's that old guy's name?"
Xiao Chen thought for a while and asked.
"Lu Xuelin."
The Ghost King replied.
"He has been here in Xuanyuan Town, so he is probably the person in charge."
"Heh, that doesn't seem to have much status, otherwise who would be here?"
Xiao Chen despised it.
"Look at Gongsun Zhen, he is a giant... What is there to do in this small town?"
"It's not like you think. Elders will come over one after another to take charge."
The Ghost King shook his head.
"The position of Lu Xuelin and his family in Shanhai Tower is still acceptable."
"There are multiple factions within Shanhai Tower?"
Xiao Chen's heart moved and he asked.
"Of course, where there are people, there are rivers and lakes, and these are inevitable."
The Ghost King nodded.
"Isn't that the case in your Three Realms Mountains?"
"Haha, senior, are you trying to trick me?"
Xiao Chen smiled.
"We in Sanjie Mountain have few people, and we all love each other."
"..."
The Ghost King was helpless, this guy was too defensive.
"Senior, can you tell me about the depths of the Imperial Sea?"
Xiao Chen poured tea for the Ghost King and asked.
"Based on your knowledge of the Ice Flame Jiao, you must also know a lot about the depths, right?"
“I don’t know much about it, I’ve just been there before.”
The Ghost King shook his head.
"What are you doing in the depths of the Imperial Sea? Are you planning to go? I advise you, don't go, it's very dangerous there."
"I'm not going, I'm just curious."
Xiao Chen smiled, he didn't want to go, but the evil dragon spirit wanted to go!
"Suppress your curiosity."
How serious is the Ghost King?
"It is said that there are real dragons deep in the Imperial Sea."
"What? Dragon Clan?"
Xiao Chen was shocked. Could it be that the evil dragon spirit came from the depths of the Imperial Sea?
The evil dragon spirit said, something is calling it!
"Yes, but it's just a legend, no one has ever seen it."
The Ghost King nodded.
"The depths of the Imperial Sea are far from as simple as we imagined. At that time, I only went to the periphery..."
"How dangerous can it be? It can't be more dangerous than Tian Jueyuan, right?"
Wang Pingbei couldn't help but ask.
"Tian Jueyuan...even if it's not as good, I'm afraid it's not far behind."
The Ghost King thought for a while and said.
"There are many unknown places in the outer world, and the danger level may not be less than that of Tianjue Abyss, but no one goes there! The depths of the Imperial Sea are one of them!"
"Unknown land..."
Xiao Chen narrowed his eyes, it was so dangerous, why should he go?
If I don't go, will the evil dragon spirit be unable to break the seal?
"Listen to my advice and don't go to the depths of the Imperial Sea...I almost died there back then."
The Ghost King warned again.
"Senior, what was your strength back then? Are you as strong as me?"
Xiao Chen thought for a while and asked.
"..."
The Ghost King's face darkened and he became silent.
"Senior, I have no other intention. I just want to ask and have a more direct understanding of the place."
Xiao Chen explained with a wry smile.
"I didn't mean to mock you."
"Where's the tail of the ice flame dragon? It's not ready yet? After eating, I have to do business."
The Ghost King was too lazy to talk to Xiao Chen, it was so heartbreaking.
Ten minutes later, the first dish was served.
"This is not the tail of the Ice Flame Dragon."
The Ghost King glanced and said.
"It's not ready yet. Come on, let's eat something else first."
Xiao Chen poured the wine.
"Senior, let me toast you."
"Come on, you are trying to trick me again."
The Ghost King said warily.
"No, I just want to thank you. You are on my side in Dihai."
Xiao Chen was smiling all over his face.
"Thank you."
"Haha, it's nothing. I think you are quite pleasing to me."
The Ghost King also smiled.
"Can you consider cooperating with me?"
"Senior, what are you doing with this? Come on, come on, have a drink."
Xiao Chen fell to the Ghost King again.
"On the wine table, just cultivate feelings and don't talk about anything else."
