Only at the Mahayana Stage Does the Reversal System Appear - Chapter 299
Chapter 299 Human Emperor: How many tons of real dragon blood do you want?
The young princess of the Southern Jiaolong Clan is named Li Jiaojiao. She was born on the same day as Yu Xiaomeng, and they are as close as sisters who have turned against each other.
At the hundred-day banquet, Li Jiaojiao and Yu Xiaomeng both fell in love with a writing brush and fought over it. Yu Xiaomeng grabbed the brush
head, and Li Jiaojiao grabbed the pen shaft. On her fifth birthday, Yu Xiaomeng grabbed two bowls of longevity noodles, and Li Jiaojiao grabbed two
poached eggs. The fight between the two became increasingly fierce, and the items became more and more diverse, from writing brushes to Peiyuan Dan, to Dragon and Tiger Golden Dan, and finally, it was their turn to fight over men.
Five days ago, the two fought on the sea, determined to decide the winner, causing a huge vortex. However, their spiritual energy was exhausted, and they were unable to break free from the vortex.
The vortex is Li Jiaojiao’s ultimate move, which can strangle people, and those in the Golden Core stage have little resistance.
Fortunately, Qi Sha Daozi, unlike the average Jindan-stage cultivator, split the vortex with a single sword strike, rescuing the two. He held Yu Xiaomeng in one arm and Li Jiaojiao in the other.
Inhuman, soaking wet, sisters… The Ma Zhuo couple were itching to write a book.
They had an idea.
“Your attitude towards these two people is worlds apart.” Jiang Li looked at Qi Sha Daozi with a strange expression. Even if he liked Yu Xiaomeng, he wouldn’t treat Li Jiaojiao so harshly. Have you ever considered how Li Jiaojiao feels?
Qi Sha Daozi expressed deep remorse and vowed not to dare again.
“He’s mine. My father and I have already agreed. As long as he returns to the Southern Dragon Clan with me, we’ll be married!” Li Jiaojiao placed her hands on her hips, declaring her sovereignty.
“Sister Li, you’re such a joker. He wants to steal my hydrangea, which means he’s got me in his heart. Why would he go with you to the Southern Dragon Tribe?”
Li Jiaojiao sneered. “That’s hard to say. He doesn’t know your true self. If he knew you were such a calculating, cunning, and treacherous woman, crying to win a man’s protection, he definitely wouldn’t like you!”
Yu Xiaomeng said gently, “I don’t think someone pretending to be a man to steal my hydrangea has the right to call me cunning.”
“Excuse me, Sister Li, are you planning to marry into my mermaid tribe?”
Li Jiaojiao blushed.
“You’re just talking nonsense? If you’re brave, let’s have a duel. Whoever wins wins his heart!”
“What?”
“Battle…”
Yu Xiaomeng reminded her. “We’re tied.”
“Education…”
“We’re tied for first place.”
“Fitness…”
Yu Xiaomeng straightened her chest, her feet invisible when she looked down.
Li Jiaojiao glanced at her flat figure and gritted her teeth, saying, “We’re evenly matched.”
“Mother once said that to capture a man’s heart, you first have to capture his stomach. The South China Sea is rich in seafood, and we’ve never competed in cooking, culinary skills!”
Li Jiaojiao was very confident in her culinary skills. Her specialty, honey-braised squid tentacles, was a South China Sea specialty, and vendors praised it as a hit.
Yu Xiaomeng gave a “good” and feigned confidence.
Even though she had never touched a cookware or even been in the kitchen, she couldn’t afford to lose.
“How will the winner be determined?”
Li Jiaojiao pointed at Qi Sha Daozi. “Of course, it’s based on his taste. If he says it’s delicious, then he wins!”
Qi Sha Daozi hadn’t even had a chance to interrupt from beginning to end; the situation was perfectly orchestrated.
Since the two of them were competing in cooking, their dishes must have been excellent. Qi Sha Daozi felt he could taste the delicacies of the South China Sea.
“Why not add a prize?” Jiang Li suggested.
“Who are you?”
Jiang Li smiled, returning to his normal self. “You may have heard of me. My name is Jiang Li.”
“Human Emperor Jiang?!” The crowd erupted in excitement. They hadn’t expected to have the privilege of meeting him.
Never blink!
Li Jiaojiao and Yu Xiaomeng were stunned, bewildered and flustered. They hadn’t expected the Human Emperor to notice this match.
“Since the Human Emperor wants to add a prize, the mermaids naturally agree.” From the South China Sea, a beautiful woman who bore a striking resemblance to Yu Xiaomeng sauntered out and bowed respectfully to Jiang Li.
Jiang Li gently ignored the mermaid leader’s gesture.
“You’re too polite, Chief. I’m just passing through.”
“I wonder what prize the Human Emperor wants to add?” The Southern Dragon Clan leader, who had been spying on them, also appeared. He was the dragon who had challenged Jiang Li to a duel five hundred years ago, claiming to have someone behind the scenes.
“A can of True Dragon Blood.”
“Okay, my Southern Flood Dragon Clan accepts this competition.” The Southern Flood Dragon Clan leader’s expression was greedy. True Dragon Blood was a valuable commodity, increasing his chances of becoming a True Dragon from 50% to 30%.
Humans tempered their bodies with True Dragon Blood, which offered a slight chance of “Dragon Transformation.” For the Flood Dragon Clan, this had only one purpose: to increase their chances of becoming a True Dragon.
Unfortunately, True Dragon Blood was incredibly precious and difficult to obtain. Even the Southern Flood Dragon Clan had only amassed two small cans, reluctant to use them all.
“Wait a moment, I’ll buy one first,”
Jiang Li said, transforming into a stream of light and flying away, leaving the crowd staring at each other in bewilderment.
…
When Jiang Li found the Dragon King of the South Sea, he found him breathlessly practicing some kind of martial arts technique.
Jiang Li’s spiritual sense revealed a manual at the Dragon King’s feet. He softly recited the preface to
“Jiang Li Ren Huang Jin”
: “This technique is divided into three stages. When cultivated to the minor success, one’s strength surpasses that of the dragon clan, unmatched by anyone else; when cultivated to the intermediate success, one can defeat Commander Zhang Konghu in strength; when cultivated to the ultimate success, one can wrestle Jiang Ren Huang single-handedly.”
…Isn’t the gap between the intermediate and ultimate successes a bit too big?
“South China Sea Dragon King, what technique are you practicing?” Jiang Li asked with a smile.
“No, nothing, just practicing for fun.” The South China Sea Dragon King nervously put the technique away, afraid that Jiang Li would see it.
“I wonder what brings the Ren Huang here?”
“I need real dragon blood. Can you sell some to me, Jiang?”
The Dragon King of the South China Sea breathed a sigh of relief, having assumed it was some serious matter.
“That’s easy to do.”
He transformed into a thousand-foot-tall dragon, clutching a dragon ball, gleaming like gold, a majestic presence. The nearby soldiers and generals, under the dragon’s pressure, prostrated themselves on the ground.
“How many tons do you want, Human Emperor?”
The Dragon King, filled with valiant pride, bit his claws, letting the blood flow. The amount was enough to drown an elephant.
“This much is enough.” Jiang Li filled a jar and returned the rest to the Dragon King with magic.
He had no use for so much dragon blood.
“How many spirit stones?”
“Human Emperor, you’re joking. This is a gift from me. There’s no such thing as spirit stones.”
Jiang Li smiled, unsurprised by the Dragon King’s answer, and turned to leave.
The Dragon King of the South China Sea breathed a sigh of relief. He had thought the Human Emperor had come here to call for punishment. Even though he had been keeping a close watch on the South China Sea tribes for years, he was not sure if anyone would be so foolish as to provoke the Human Emperor.
Fortunately, it was only for real dragon blood. Even
if the Human Emperor dared to offer money, he would not dare to take it.
The Dragon King of the South China Sea took out the “Jiang Li Human Emperor Power” and wanted to continue practicing. After turning two pages, he was suddenly stunned.
Many annotations suddenly appeared on the technique, which were profound and easy to understand, giving him a new understanding of the entire technique.
This is a priceless treasure, far more valuable than real dragon blood.
The Dragon King of the South China Sea bowed deeply in the direction where Jiang Li left.
“Thank you, Human Emperor, for your guidance.”
