There is a beast in the bright morning.

As the giant claw mark descended from the sky, the already ruined Deer Man's shop suffered an even greater calamity, being reduced to dust by the attack.

Seeing this scene from afar, the four-legged creature was so heartbroken that it almost fainted, but fortunately, Rabbit Lord caught it.

Just a moment ago, the Qilin was heartbroken over the destruction of its shop, but the next second it was already calculating whether it could still apply to the Heavenly Court for repair costs for the Deer Man Shop this year. If it couldn't, then it would definitely make Hao Chen compensate it.

(Hao Chen, far in the past, suddenly shivered: "What's going on? Why do I suddenly feel a chill down my spine? Could someone have plotted against me?")

Dust and smoke rose, and a sinkhole appeared on the spot where the Deer Man Shop was located. Wisps of yin and yang energy permeated the area around the sinkhole.

Call ~

The fire-breathing dragon flapped its wings and burst out of the smoke and dust. Looking back at the deep crater in the ground, it couldn't help but swallow hard: "Has Big Brother gone mad? Isn't he afraid that the Qilin will come after him for compensation?"

At the same time, besides shock, there was also a hint of worry in the depths of Charizard's eyes: "Although I don't know how my brother recovered to this level of strength so quickly, if that's all, I'm afraid we still won't be able to deal with this old dragon."

But these weren't things Charizard should be thinking about right now. Suddenly, Charizard landed next to the Chimera and the others, and instantly knelt down, transforming back into its Charmander form.

Seeing this, the Qilin quickly stepped forward to help the little fire dragon up: "How are you? Are you hurt?"

The little dragon's blood was churning, clearly indicating that he was seriously injured. However, he still forced down the blood he was about to vomit and gave the Qilin a hideous smile: "It's alright, I'm not going to die."

Seeing that the little fire dragon was still trying to stand up, the Qilin quickly stopped him, saying, "You're injured, don't move. I'll have the Flower Bird take a look."

"I do not……"

"What do you mean 'it's nothing'? Your wounds are still bleeding. I told you not to move, so don't move."

At this moment, after seeing Charmander injured while protecting them, the Qilin truly began to see Charmander as family and a friend of the Deer Man Shop.

After hearing what the Qilin said, the little dragon felt a strange warmth in its heart and thought to itself: As expected of my brother's friend, it seems that my injury was not in vain.

The next moment, the little fire dragon asked, "How is Yingzhao now after consuming the Seed of Reincarnation?"

The four-legged creature smiled with relief upon hearing this: "I have to thank you for this. The Flower Bud Bird said that Yingzhao's body is already recovering. I just didn't expect that the Seed of Reincarnation would attract such a terrible enemy. Fortunately, you are still here."

The little dragon agreed wholeheartedly. Not long ago, he had just taken out the Seed of Reincarnation, but unexpectedly, the true meaning of reincarnation emanating from the Seed of Reincarnation attracted a fallen dragon.

Even though this dragon has been dead for countless years, it still possesses the combat power of an Emperor Realm cultivator. It is hard to imagine how powerful this dragon must have been in its lifetime.

Just then, Tianlu suddenly limped over to the Four-Faced Beast and said to it with delight, "Four-Faced Beast, is that Haochen?"

The Qilin tenderly rubbed Tianlu's head. If Tianlu hadn't shielded him from the enemy's divine light with his own body, he would have been the one injured.

"Pipi, does your leg still hurt?"

Tianlu shook his leg nonchalantly: "You're so dramatic. I don't even care about this kind of injury. It'll be fine in a few days."

Even a four-legged creature like Si Bu Xiang could see that Tian Lu was just being stubborn and only said he was fine because he didn't want Si Bu Xiang to worry.

But the four-legged creature opened its mouth as if it wanted to say something, but when the words reached its lips, it didn't know how to speak and could only let out a sigh.

At the same time, a deafening dragon roar suddenly emanated from the deep pit that was originally shrouded in wisps of yin and yang energy, and the powerful imperial dragon energy instantly dispersed the yin and yang energy brought by the giant claw print.

The next moment, an enormous dragon rose from the deep pit, its size unknown, stretching for thousands of miles, its head and tail invisible at a glance.

"It's huge, even bigger than before, even bigger than when I was Gigantamaxed." The little Charmander looked at the enormous body of the true dragon and instantly felt insignificant.

As soon as the dragon appeared, it roared to the sky. Then the dragon's body began to shrink, but it was still several hundred meters long.

The dragon's body was somewhat illusory, as if it were not a physical entity, but it emitted rays of chaotic divine light, and its scales resembled miniature chaotic worlds.

The next moment, the true dragon suddenly looked at the place where the Qilin was and roared, "Insects, hand over the Seed of Reincarnation. Such a divine object is not something you can covet."

The terrifying dragon's might poured down on the Qilin, instantly crushing it and causing it, Rabbit Lord, and the others to show expressions of pain.

At that very moment, wisps of yin and yang energy suddenly descended from the sky, shielding the Qilin from the dragon's might.

The four-legged creature, protected by the yin and yang energies, no longer felt uncomfortable.

However, upon seeing the Yin-Yang energy, the True Dragon instantly flew into a rage, roaring to the sky: "Dao Child, come out here! You dare to do it but not admit it? You blocked my path, severed my true body, and suppressed me in this remote corner for tens of thousands of years. How cruel you are! We have honored you with the title of Dao Child. Do you deserve the title of Dao Child?"

The dragon grew more and more excited as it spoke, and its scales condensed into clusters of chaotic divine light, transforming into countless chaotic divine swords that sealed the heavens and the earth. The sharp sword light seemed to be about to annihilate everything in front of the dragon.

At this moment, the rabbit beside the Qilin noticed that the Chaos Myriad Realms Dragon's gaze was no longer on them, so it asked curiously, "Qilin, can you tell where this dragon is from? The Four Seas Dragon Kings don't seem to have such a large true form, and they seem to be less than a fraction of this true dragon."

The four-legged creature shook its head: "I don't know, but the larger the opponent is, the more difficult it is to deal with."

"Alas, Chaos Dragon of Myriad Realms, why do you do this? Isn't it better to be alive?" As this voice rang out, Hao Chen's figure appeared in the void.

Upon hearing Hao Chen reveal the true dragon's origins, Tian Lu was instantly startled and exclaimed, "So it's this guy!"

Seeing the puzzled look on the four-legged creature's face, Tianlu briefly explained to them that he had encountered the true dragon when he rescued the treasure-spitting rat.

"Pipi, according to you, this guy should have been killed back then."

Tianlu nodded: "Yes, but a creature that doesn't resemble a chameleon, like a Chaos Dragon, is bound to have a few trump cards. It's normal that not all of them died."

"brush!!!"

At this moment, Hao Chen was seen carrying a pair of enormous wings formed from Yin and Yang energy, with wisps of Yin and Yang energy falling down as the wings flapped.

Upon seeing Hao Chen appear, the Chaos Myriad Realms Dragon became even more excited. Although his appearance had changed, the aura emanating from Hao Chen coincided with the aura of the Dao Child in his memory, and the two instantly overlapped.

Thinking of what he had experienced in his previous life, the Chaos Dragon could not calm down, and the Chaos Divine Sword around him suddenly shot towards Hao Chen.

Seeing this, Hao Chen shook his head slightly: "Sigh, why bother? If you were still in your prime, I would be somewhat afraid of you, but now how much of your prime strength can you exert?"

As Hao Chen finished speaking, he also flapped the Yin-Yang wings on his back, and streams of Yin-Yang energy transformed into handfuls of Yin-Yang Immortal Materials, emitting a sharp, cold light, and also headed towards the Chaos Myriad Realms Dragon.

"Clang!"

The chaotic divine light collided with the divine sword formed from the yin and yang energies, producing a sound like metal clashing.

Before the Chaos Myriad Realms Dragon could make its next move, Hao Chen suddenly shouted, "Two Elements Formation - Trapped!"

As Hao Chen spoke, the already enormous Yin-Yang wings behind him suddenly grew larger again, like wings hanging from the sky, transforming into a Yin-Yang array that trapped Hao Chen and the Chaos Myriad Realms Dragon within it. The array evolved into countless Yin-Yang runes.

Seeing Hao Chen disappear with the Chaos Myriad Realms Dragon, the Qilin couldn't help but say, "Hao Chen, sigh, it's all my fault for not knowing anything."

Seeing the four-legged creature's worried expression, Rabbit Lord comforted it, "Don't worry, four-legged creature. With such a commotion, the Heavenly Court must have found out, and they will definitely send people over."

The four-legged creature shook its head and said, "Rabbit Lord, have you thought about it? It's been so long, why hasn't anyone from Heaven come yet? Perhaps they don't want to get involved, or perhaps they can't come."

Although the "four unlikes" was just a casual remark, it turned out to be true. The Heavenly Court and the mortal realm were separated by an unnamed celestial array. Even with the personal intervention of the Jade Emperor and the World Honored One Tathagata, they were still unable to break the array, and thus they were helpless in dealing with the matter of the Deer Man Shop.

Although the underworld can come to the mortal realm, the earth instructed Di Ting to prevent the underworld from getting involved in this matter.

Therefore, although the commotion at the Deer Man Shop was quite significant, no immortals or gods were involved.

Meanwhile, in another timeline, after Tianlu had eaten and drunk his fill, he took out a bag from somewhere and began packing up gold and jade from Sibuxiang's house.

"We've eaten and drunk our fill, let's go home now, shall we?"

Tianlu, who had taken food and gifts from the Four-Unlikes, felt no embarrassment whatsoever. On the contrary, he regretted that he was too weak and had not carried enough.

Upon hearing Tianlu's words, Bixie's eyes darkened: "Tianlu, I... I might not be able to leave."

"Huh? Why? Didn't we promise to never be apart, Bixie?"

When Tianlu heard that Bixie couldn't leave with him, he panicked instantly. He stopped packing and started asking Bixie why.

Bixie explained, "Tianlu, have you forgotten? I promised Sibuxiang that I would stay with him for five hundred years in order to find you."

When Tianlu heard that the reason was his fault, he lowered his head in shame and said, "I'm sorry, Bixie."

Bixie didn't blame Tianlu. Instead, he patted Tianlu's head and comforted him, "Silly boy, don't say sorry. We're brothers."

When the four-legged creature saw that Tianlu wanted to take Bixie away, it excitedly said, "Little Plum Blossom, you can't leave! Words have power, and what you say you must do. Five hundred years, not a single day less."

Bixie glared at Sibuxiang with annoyance. He didn't know how he had been fooled by Sibuxiang and agreed to such an outrageous condition.

"Hmph, I will keep my promise to you."

Having no concept of time, Tianlu thought for a long time but still couldn't figure out how long five hundred years was. In the end, he had to measure it by the number of meals he ate.

But Tianlu retorted, "No, no, you can't stay, Bixie. Five hundred years is too long. Jiangjiang is still waiting for us!"

Si Buxiang also retorted without backing down, "Little Blue Circle can leave if she wants, but Plum Blossom, you have to stay and keep me company."

When Bixie heard that Sibuxiang wanted Tianlu to leave his side, he immediately showed an unhappy expression: "Impossible, Tianlu and I will never be separated again."

Seeing how much Si Bu Xiang was trying to persuade Bi Xie to stay, Hao Chen was extremely envious. If Si Bu Xiang asked him to stay and keep him company, he would definitely agree without hesitation.

At this moment, Tianlu suddenly had a flash of inspiration and said, "Since Bixie is going to stay and keep Sibuxiang company, and I can't be separated from Bixie, let's just let Sibuxiang come with us. Anyway, he seems to have a lot of free time."

After hearing Tianlu's words, Sibuxiang realized that it wasn't about Bixie leaving him, so he nodded in agreement with Tianlu's plan: "Oh, that's fine, let's go together then!"

"Hmm?!" After thinking for a long time, Bixie realized that Tianlu's method suited the current situation, so he agreed to let Sibuxiang go with them.

Where is Jiang Jiang buried?

The Four-Unlikes carried Bixie and Tianlu away in an instant, leaving only the helpless Shi Qilin couple at the entrance of Qilin Cave: "You didn't even say goodbye to your parents before leaving, you unfilial sons."

Suddenly, Yu Qilin noticed Hao Chen standing to the side and asked, "Little Chen, you didn't go with the Four-Faced Beasts and the others."

Hao Chen pouted and said, "It's okay, I don't want to run around anyway."

Just as Hao Chen finished speaking, the Four-Faced Beast returned with the Evil-Repelling Heavenly Beast and said to Hao Chen, "I almost forgot about you, Little Coal Ball. Come on up, let's go find Little Plum Blossom and Little Blue Circle's friends together."

"Okay!" Hao Chen excitedly climbed onto the back of the Four-Unlikes after hearing what it said, and set off with the Four-Unlikes.

Upon seeing this, Shi Qilin snorted coldly: "Unfilial son, I thought you came back to say goodbye to your parents. And Xiao Chen, didn't you just say you didn't like running around? You've changed your mind so quickly."

Seeing Shi Qilin's expression, Yu Qilin covered her mouth and chuckled. Then she walked up to Shi Qilin and gave him a flirtatious wink: "Why are you angry? It'll be quieter now that our son and the others are gone, won't it, honey?"

"Um?!"

As expected of someone who had been to the chariot before, Shi Qilin immediately understood Yu Qilin's meaning and excitedly escorted Yu Qilin into the Qilin Cave, completely disregarding the fact that it was still broad daylight.

Soon after, strange panting sounds came from the Qilin Cave...
