My Enemy Became My Cultivation Companion-Chapter 832 - 513: Fierce Battle at Jade Dragon (Triple Bonus - , 3-in-1)

Chen Yi laughed heartily, the long sword on his back clanging as it was drawn from its sheath. The sound of metal scraping against metal resounded through the mist as his feet barely touched the ground. He charged back into the storm like a black sword!

Yin Tingxue, seeing the overwhelming momentum, became scared and quickly hid behind the door, covering her ears while peeking out with half her head.

The dark clouds rolled, black as the sea. Jagged, winding lines forcefully tore through the cloud ocean layer by layer. Beneath its enormous dragon body, the sky shifted between light and darkness due to the lightning, while the Taoist figure danced in and out, seemingly treading on the electric light, wielding his sword.

The Silver Sea stirred up towering waves, the Dragon King's roar mingling with the raging river. The waves surged, and the buildings on the ship rose and fell, appearing as tiny as a lone drifting leaf. The large and small passengers inside clutched their heads in horror, staring at the celestial phenomenon with fright.

In no time at all, the thunder seemed to pause, and instead, Chen Yi's figure flickered faster and faster, his sword light pouring down like a torrential rain, with the raindrops gradually turning red.

Crash!

In a fierce battle with the jade dragon, his killing intent spread across the sky, the scales and armor falling like white snow!

Chen Yi was drenched in Dragon Blood, his expression calm. The Qingyi River God pulled at the massive, blood-stained dragon body, brandishing its whiskers and claws, his voice echoing across the world in furious rage.

Behind him, black clouds gathered, and purple aura rose, as if summoning a mystical thunder from the nine heavens!

"You were advised not to go too far, not to be ruthless, yet you insist on complete eradication! You know I've ruled over the Qingyi River for nearly a millennium, can't I evoke a celestial phenomenon, can't I cut off your path to becoming immortal as a Taoist? You reject the guide of the deities for the punishment wine instead!"

Chen Yi's expression was no longer calm, but he laughed, a mocking laugh: "To root out evil completely, to eradicate thoroughly. I am a Third Rank Martial Artist, free to follow my path. Why would I need the guidance of immortals?"

In the next instant.

The sword light and purple lightning intersected.

A single sword cutting through heaven and earth,

the vast river was split open for more than ten miles, amidst the black clouds, a dragon's roar erupted, and a bit of blue quickly fled towards the distant sky.

The sky cleared abruptly, the world bright and open.

Only to see where the Daoist stood on the firmament, an ink dot swiftly descended. Evely, the boat shook, finally steadying itself. The stunned ship's crowd fixed their gaze, realizing it was a jade green dragon horn being cleaved off in mid-air, plummeting like a small mountain, stirring up a tidal wave......

.....

In the south, there are many rivers; the color of dusk seemed to be wet with fog, and was far more dim and hazy than expected. Such deep yellow would bring sandstorms to the northwest, yet no sand rose for a long time, even the wind carried moisture, which Miss Donggong found quite uncomfortable.

They were now in the main hall of a villa from the Xia Shui Su Family.

The Xia Shui Su Family is a merchant family spanning three provinces, mainly based in Hu-Guang. As the saying goes, "Wealth does not last beyond three generations." But since it is a proverb, it comes from common folk. The Xia Shui Su Family, having been royal merchants since their ancestors managed grain transportation, has been rich till now, producing over ten scholars in the past hundred years, one of which, Anshan Gong Su Hongtao, held the Second Rank position of Capital Commander, seemingly ensured of prosperity for another thirty years.

Recently, Hu-Guang has been troubled by the White Lotus Sect, causing grain prices to soar all over, tightening grain transport. The Su Family was busier than ever in their business.

Is it just flower blooms on a brocade...

or flames boiling oil.

Dong Gong Ruoshu wouldn't concern herself with these things. As someone from Da Jin, the more successful the Su Family becomes, and the more corrupt the grain transport is, the worse it is for Great Yu, better for Da Jin.

Regarding the group from Xique Pavilion led by Wei Wuque, the Xia Shui Su Family naturally dared not neglect them, treating them with great hospitality, amidst brightly lit festivities, music, and dancing, banquets and toasts exchanged. Guest Dong Gong Ruoshu soon mingled well with the ladies of the manor, occasionally taking a leisurely walk around the hall, or into the county town.

Only today, a familiar face appeared outside the hall, his pitiful state startled Dong Gong Ruoshu.

It was the Qingyi River God, in scholar's robe and high crown, his face pale as paper.

The more than twenty people present in the hall were all greatly shocked and promptly stood up to greet him. The Su Family's eldest son, Family Head Su Hongyi hurried over to support him, fearing the slightest neglect, not just out of respect for a guest but more like a servant greeting a master.

After the River God whispered a few words, the Family Head's expression turned worse than if he had lost a close relative, eyes filled with fear and helplessness.

The Qingyi River God's expression flickered, lips sealed, hesitant to speak, as if deeply troubled.

At this moment, Dong Gong Ruoshu stepped out from the hallway, poking her head out, "River God, is there something wrong?"

Yuan Qi turned his head, momentarily stunned, not expecting to encounter the lady companion met before,

"Mr. Dong Gong is actually here?"

"Indeed, we meet again." Dong Gong Ruoshu nodded.

The Family Head Su Hongyi, seeing they knew each other, considerately stepped back a few paces.

"What happened? You don't look well,"

Yuan Qi's face was undeniably pale. He forced a nod and then recounted about "encountering a Daoist on the road, intending to offer opportunity but being met with violence and getting wounded" and so forth. 𝗳𝐫𝚎𝗲𝚠𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝘃𝚎𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝗺

The more Dong Gong Ruoshu listened, the more despicable the Daoist seemed. Often it is said one should not strike a smiling person, yet this evil had no good reason.

"After all, Mr. Dong Gong is an outsider, this matter has nothing to do with you, we will handle it ourselves..." Yuan Qi sighed and said.

"Seeing injustice, how could one not draw their sword to help?" Since practicing at Taihua Mountain, Dong Gong Ruoshu was already Fourth Rank, having had no chance to show her skills, now eager to try.

"But that person has deep martial arts, even more profound Taoist skills, I fear Mr. Dong Gong..."

Dong Gong Ruoshu lightly tapped her sword sheath, interrupting:

"River God might not know, back in the northwest at Yuanfeng Building, facing opponents several times our number, my friends and I fought them with fierce and erratic prowess."
