The City’s Strongest Son-in-law Chapter 1407 - 1406: The Injured Little Fellow

A trace of annoyance flashed in Baili Luoyuan’s eyes; she indeed hadn’t expected that when faced with someone as beautiful as herself, there would be no wavering at all. This was a setback Baili Luoyuan had never suffered before, after all, with other men, they would probably have been completely captivated by her.

"Are you just pretending to be aloof, or are you really not tempted by beauty? I will find out sooner or later; how could a man not be swayed by beauty?" Baili Luoyuan muttered to herself.

In fact, Su Changfeng didn’t have anything that needed his attention. He had always been a leisurely boss, with the big and small matters of the sect being handled by Chen Qingqing and Wang Junyi. When those two were exhausted, Su Changfeng remained at ease and had absolutely no intention of lending a hand.

Once he was free, Su Changfeng could properly contemplate the story Baili Luoyuan had mentioned; in Su Changfeng’s opinion, the credibility of the story was low, especially with the appearance of the headless expert, which made Su Changfeng find it absurd.

However, the person who might be a Holy Spirit Expert and the Silver Flood Dragon within the Sourceless Forest did indeed pique Su Changfeng’s interest.

Previously, the awakening of the Silver Flood Dragon had cost the fall of experts on the Tianyuan Continent. If the recent stir in the Sourceless Forest is indeed related to the Silver Flood Dragon, history might repeat itself, causing a headache for Su Changfeng.

Trying to rule the Three Kingdoms was already quite challenging; now another Silver Flood Dragon has emerged, another major stumbling block for him.

The main concern is that the White Jade Python hasn’t returned ever since it left. Su Changfeng is also somewhat worried about the little fellow’s safety.

Could it be that if it went to the Sourceless Forest and got into a fight with the Silver Flood Dragon, considering the Silver Flood Dragon’s strength, would the little fellow run into trouble?

"Little thing, I suppose you won’t die in the Sourceless Forest, right?" Su Changfeng murmured.

That evening, the exhausted Wang Junyi and Chen Qingqing found Su Changfeng, reporting the day’s arrangements to him.

Su Changfeng did nothing much, just listened to the report and began yawning, which left Wang Junyi and Chen Qingqing a bit helpless.

However, being a disciple, Wang Junyi naturally didn’t dare to criticize Su Changfeng, and Chen Qingqing understood Su Changfeng’s nature, knowing he had no interest in such matters; they were merely going through the motions.

"Alright, you’ve been tired all day; hurry back to your rooms and rest. If there’s nothing particularly important in the future, you don’t need to report to me."

"Master, there are no experts in the sect now, is it time to think of a strategy?" Wang Junyi asked. Although there were over a hundred disciples in the sect, most of them were ordinary people who had never undergone training. For Wang Junyi, these additions brought no benefit to the Changfeng Sect. If they wanted to improve the sect’s strength, they had to attract those experts.

Su Changfeng’s eyebrow suddenly furrowed; a very familiar aura was gradually approaching him, albeit quite weak.

"Alright, you go back for now; I have other matters to attend to." With those words, Su Changfeng left the room with a solemn expression.

Wang Junyi was somewhat puzzled, asking, "What’s Master going to do? It’s so late, what else could there be?"

"Since you call him Master, you should understand that you can’t interfere in his matters." Chen Qingqing said.

Wang Junyi nodded, but a playful expression suddenly appeared in his face, asking, "Aunt Chen, do you think Master went to have a rendezvous with someone from the Qingluan Sect?"

Chen Qingqing gave Wang Junyi a stern look; this guy always liked to think about such frivolous things. Other men might have such thoughts, but she knew clearly that Su Changfeng would definitely not do such a thing.

"I believe that’s just your own imagination," Chen Qingqing said.

Wang Junyi instinctively intended to nod, but quickly reacted, shook his head vigorously, and said, "Aunt Chen, you’re the only one in my heart; where would I find those ordinary beauties appealing?"

Chen Qingqing snorted, feeling no emotional stir from such words.

By this time, Su Changfeng had reached the hillside, and when he found the weakened White Jade Python beside the road, his heart twisted with pain.

Covered in wounds, clearly severely injured, Su Changfeng quickly picked the little fellow up and took it into the room.

Gently placing White Jade Python on the bed, Su Changfeng couldn’t help but pout, saying, "I said you could go out and play for a few days, but I didn’t tell you to seek death. Did you fight with the Silver Flood Dragon?"

The only thing that could injure the White Jade Python like that, other than the Silver Flood Dragon, was something Su Changfeng couldn’t think of. Besides, the stir in the Sourceless Forest happened not long after the White Jade Python left, the timing was about right.

White Jade Python sluggishly flicked its tongue, as if responding to Su Changfeng’s words.

"It seems the Silver Flood Dragon is indeed formidable, to turn you into such a state, but the fact that you didn’t die is already quite commendable." Su Changfeng couldn’t help but exclaim.

Back then, countless strong men perished to seal the Silver Flood Dragon, from which its power could be discerned.

Now, the fact that the White Jade Python managed to escape from its presence proves its extraordinary abilities.

Unfortunately, their powers differ far too much.

The White Jade Python felt aggrieved; originally, it went to the Sourceless Forest intending to find some Fate Fruit for Su Changfeng, but unexpectedly encountered the newly awakened Silver Flood Dragon, so a fight ensued.

Fortunately, the Silver Flood Dragon had just awakened and hadn’t fully exhibited its strength after sleeping for a millennium; otherwise, the White Jade Python wouldn’t possibly have escaped alive.

After all, being an Ancient Holy Spirit Beast, the Silver Flood Dragon’s strength is almost unmatched.

Su Changfeng felt heavy-hearted; although he couldn’t yet confirm that the Silver Flood Dragon in the Sourceless Forest had awakened, the likelihood was as high as 80%, bringing him devastating news.

Naturally, Su Changfeng didn’t wish to die on Tianyuan Continent, especially since Shen Hanxue and the others were still waiting for him on Earth. If he didn’t want to die, he had to deal with the trouble of the Silver Flood Dragon, but with his current strength, it was impossible.

"Do I really have to visit Chenguang Hall?" Su Changfeng murmured. To deal with the Silver Flood Dragon, he had to know what truly happened back then, which meant he must visit Chenguang Hall.

Even though Baili Luoyuan’s words were quite reasonable, during the incident at Sourceless Forest, perhaps the Emperor wouldn’t harm him, but as one who could caution even Primordial Masters, Su Changfeng couldn’t take it lightly.

White Jade Python’s self-healing ability was strong; by the next day, its wounds visibly healed, though it still appeared extremely weak, likely needing a good period of rest.

Su Changfeng didn’t intervene much, knowing well that he couldn’t assist the little fellow himself.
