Scoring the Sacred Body of the Ancients from the Get-go - Chapter 60

Chapter 60: Wu Mingyue’s Help; Jun Xiaoyao’s Trap

Xiao Chen’s heart sank when he heard the woman’s voice. He turned his head around abruptly.

A pretty woman wearing blue armor came into sight. She had captivating eyes, a boyish appearance, and two blue dragon horns growing on her head.

This was obviously Long Bichi.

“It’s the woman from the Lair of Zulong.” Xiao Chen felt a sudden sense of dismay.

Even though he knew that Long Bichi mostly likely came to the Supreme Treasures of Yuantian this time to look for the dragon bones, he never expected that she could find them so quickly.

Long Bichi held a piece of blue bone in her hand.

Relying on the blue bone, she vaguely found out where the dragon skeletons were. With that knowledge, she went there straight away.

At that moment, Long Bichi’s beautiful eyes also flared with excitement upon recognizing the five dragon skeletons, especially the Supreme Skeleton of the Patriarchal Dragon.

Even the Lair of Zulong didn’t have enough of the Supreme Skeleton of the Patriarchal Dragon.

“This is wonderful. I can finally accomplish my mission this time.” Long Bichi sighed with relief.

Even though Long Bichi didn’t get to impress Jun Xiaoyao, at least she fulfilled her duty.

Long Bichi took her eyes off the dragon skeletons and noticed Xiao Chen who was standing on the side.

Long Bichi furrowed her eyebrows in confusion when she realized that Xiao Chen was a human. She said to him, “I’m surprised that a human got here before I did. Since I’m in a good mood right now, how about you leave while you still can?”

Long Bichi waved her hand and dismissed Xiao Chen. She didn’t think he was a threat.

“Humph, what an overbearing woman. You don’t think I’m worthy of your attention and respect?” Xiao Chen said in a low voice. His face grew grim.

“Worthy of my attention and respect?” Long Bichi tilted her head slightly and cracked a contemptuous smile.

“Do you think you are in the same league as Jun Xiaoyao? I may think twice about challenging Jun Xiaoyao, but why would I feel the same way toward a nobody like you?”

Xiao Chen’s eyes blazed with fury when he heard Long Bichi’s insults.

He suddenly bellowed in anger, “Jun Xiaoyao this, Jun Xiaoyao that. It’s always Jun Xiaoyao! How am I always inferior to him?”

Long Bichi was a little startled. She didn’t understand why the human standing before her suddenly lost his mind.

“So what if you’re the Daughter of the Dragons? You all have to kneel before me!” Xiao Chen unexpectedly launched the first attack.

“You’re nothing more than a puny human boy. You must have a death wish!” Long Bichi also jumped into action with an irritated look on her face.

The two smashed into each other and whipped up waves of magical power.

“Huh? How come you are at such a high cultivation stage?” Long Bichi was a little surprised.

She didn’t think that the young human in front of her would have already been halfway through the Celestial Bridge Stage.

He truly was quite a genius.

Even Long Bichi herself only completed the Celestial Bridge Stage recently.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Long Bichi and Xiao Chen met head-on, their abilities equally matched at the moment.

At that point, Xiao Chen heard the voice of the Master Blue Dragon in his head say, “Xiao Chen, this can’t wait any longer. You have to find a way to take away the dragon skeletons. Things will start looking bad for us once other people are attracted to this place.”

The Master Blue Dragon didn’t jump in to help Xiao Chen because he couldn’t.

As a demi-supreme cultivator, he would be immediately detected by the elders of the Immortal Orthodoxies waiting outside of the Supreme Treasures.

Therefore, Xiao Chen could only rely on himself.

“All right, I’ll finish her off as quickly as possible!”

Determined and undaunted, Xiao Chen raised his head and let out a roar. His body was glowing with blue light.

Much to Long Bichi’s astonishment, Xiao Chen was covered in blue scales. A pair of wings grew out of his back, putting him in a half-dragon state.

Xiao Chen’s energy also shot up to the Unifying Stage.

“This…this is the Guide to Dragon Transformation in Blue Sky of the Lair of Zulong. Where did you get this?” Astounded and bewildered, Long Bichi widened her eyes in disbelief.

She never expected a young human to be able to cultivate the Guide to Dragon Transformation in Blue Sky to this level.

“Humph, there is much more coming to blow you away!”

Xiao Chen took great pleasure in seeing Long Bichi’s stunned expression.

Hundreds of rays of light shone brilliantly as the shock wave created by his fist spread out.

Even so, Long Bichi obviously was not a pushover.

She became even stronger than Long Haotian after fully ingesting two pieces of Dragon Essence.

Long Bichi flapped her hand like a dragon wagging its tail, activating a series of runes of magical power.

The energy generated by Xiao Chen’s fists was also extremely impressive.

With them being equally matched with each other, neither of them had an advantage over the other.

“This is one real troublemaker.”

Xiao Chen’s expression turned gloomy when he realized that he couldn’t easily overpower Long Bichi.

Just when they were locked in a stalemate, a white beam of magical power dashed toward them from someplace nearby. Even the floor cracked open.

Long Bichi sensed that the strike came out of nowhere. Alarmed, she turned around hastily to dodge the attack. Even then, she was still grazed by the magical power and spat out a mouthful of blood.

“Who is that?” Long Bichi was furious.

A gorgeous woman with a white veil covering her face appeared.

“Mingyue, it’s you! Why are you here?” Xiao Chen was filled with surprise and joy.

Xiao Chen never thought that Wu Mingyue would suddenly show up like this.

“Xiao Chen, are you all right?” Wu Mingyue looked at Xiao Chen with concern before shifting her icy gaze to Long Bichi.

“Who are you?” Long Bichi was on high alert.

She could tell that the veiled woman was strong with an extraordinary background.

“Leave now. You’re not worthy of taking anything here,” Wu Mingyue said coldly, revealing the regal bearing of a Princess Royal.

“How dare you get involved in the matters of the Lair of Zulong!” Long Bichi didn’t budge either.

“The Lair of Zulong may be pretty impressive, but what does that matter?” Wu Mingyue was not intimidated by Long Bichi at all.

Xiao Chen was deeply moved to see Wu Mingyue standing against the entire Lair of Zulong on his behalf.

From that moment on, he swore that he would marry Wu Mingyue in the future and cherish her for life.

Nevertheless, just when the air in the room was simmering with tension, a cool and distant voice rang out again.

“Humph, neither the Lair of Zulong nor you two can have the dragon skeletons. They belong to the divine child.”

Long Bichi, Wu Mingyue, and Xiao Chen were all taken aback.

A young man wearing silver armor appeared.

He had a square face with a jagged scar on his cheeks. The runes of thunders and lightning wrapped around his body, making him appear even more intimidating.

He was Jun Wanjie, the Sequence Five of the Jun family.

“Jun Wanjie, how did you get here?!” Long Bichi was staggered.

“Well, I couldn’t have done it without that treasure-sniffing rat.” Jun Wanjie mockingly looked at Xiao Chen.

Jun Xiaoyao had asked Jun Wanjie to secretly follow Xiao Chen.

Jun Wanjie was puzzled at first, wondering why he had to follow an average young man like Xiao Chen.

Nevertheless, Jun Wanjie was left speechless with admiration for Jun Xiaoyao upon seeing the four ancient dragon skeletons and the Supreme Skeleton of the Patriarchal Dragon.

“Can young master predict the future? If not, then how did he know this young man would find the skeletons?” Jun Wanjie couldn’t figure it out.

That being said, the most important thing for him right now was to seize hold of these dragon skeletons.

Xiao Chen’s face turned crimson at the sight of Jun Wanjie. Consumed by anger, he felt his head throbbing in pain.

Of course, he understood now that he once again fell into Jun Xiaoyao’s trap.

Xiao Chen turned around and said to Wu Mingyue, “Mingyue, please help me beat this man!”
