Chapter 385 -229: Long Meiren Weeps at Night, Golden Spears and Iron Horses Feast the Three Kings
The night deepened, and Chen Qing lay down on his sword, drifting into a drowsy sleep.
After entering the dream, he practiced the Dream Dragon Slaying Skill once more before suddenly waking up.
“Wooo…”
“My poor child…”
A cry reached Chen Qing’s ears, the sound winding and lamenting, filled with sorrow and heartache.
Chen Qing lifted the silk satin quilt off himself and looked toward Ying Wugang, who was guarding him from not far away, “Ying Wugang, did you hear someone crying?”
Ying Wugang shook his head, “I didn’t hear anything.”
“What crying are you talking about?”
Chen Qing rose and as soon as he stepped out of the cave, Wei Qingchen, Xuan Mang, and Lu Shenglong hurried over.
“Lord Wen, did something happen?”
Chen Qing replied, “I heard some inexplicable crying, going to take a look.”
At first, they were skeptical, but as Chen Qing approached the nearby White Bone River, they suddenly saw a woman with white dragon horns on her forehead, dressed in a flowing white garment, crying timidly.
The weeping was heart-wrenching, “My child, your death was so tragic!”
Chen Qing looked closely, “So, it was the ghost of a dragon clan.”
The Long Meiren cried, suddenly questioning Chen Qing: “You tormenting Asura, do you want to kill everyone in the world?”
“He who kills will be killed!”
“Qingxu, aren’t you afraid of retribution?”
Chen Qing folded his arms, “Your retribution will come sooner than mine.”
“Slay her, destroy her Divine Soul!”
Lu Shenglong immediately leaped forward, using the masculinity of the Vermilion Bird Tribe like a flash of a blazing sun, instantly melting the Long Meiren.
“Qingxu, you will die a terrible death…”
Chen Qing was just about to rest and recuperate when suddenly a fast horse rider galloped over. Dismounting, he knelt before Chen Qing, reporting, “Lord Wen, the wolf tribe has already started attacking the city!”
Chen Qing waved his hand, “Scout and report again!”
He instructed Wei Qingchen and the other two generals, “Gather the troops, follow the plan, attack the city!”
Ten miles away from Wangbei City, Chen Qing saw that the beacon fires on the city’s walls were unceasing, countless flying swords falling like a heavenly waterfall, sweeping up into the wind and snow.
The collision of wind, snow, and raging fire set the whole Wangbei City ablaze, as if it were to scorch the heavens and boil the seas.
Chen Qing nodded slightly to Hu Yao and then said, “You go to the West Gate, I’ll go to the East Gate!”
Hu Yao smiled and said, “Don’t worry, senior brother, I’ll definitely give you a surprise!”
Chen Qing had just led his men to the East Gate when he saw a person in white robes ahead.
His figure was atop the second floor of the crimson tower, sitting at a tea tree table by the window, brewing wine.
He glanced sideways at Chen Qing, extending a hand slightly, inviting him: “We meet again, Taiyi, won’t you have a drink?”
Chen Qing looked at the second level of the red tower, “You’ve already reached the second floor?”
Li Chonghuan smiled and said, “As the Immortal Court Divine Son, truth be told, my status is a bit higher than Ji Dang’s.”
“After all, he only has a chance to ascend the throne, and that’s if he returns alive from the Death Realm.”
“I’m different, I am the next Sect Hierarch of the Immortal Court.”
“Over all the world, just beneath the Heavenly Venerable.”
“So, it’s not unusual for me to ascend the second floor, is it?”
Li Chonghuan rose and smiled, “The wine is fragrant and the meat is rich, why, won’t you come for a drink?”
Chen Qing said, “A delaying tactic?”
“You should know, I never liked these romantic affairs of yours, it’s ineffective on me.”
Li Chonghuan said, “After eating, I will fight you. The Dragon Cavalry is strong, but can they withstand the aftermath of our battle in front of King Gu?”
“Why don’t you and I fight? If you win, I will open the gate.”
“I’m not like Ji Dang, who is here to fight you to the death.”
“I’m just a passerby, here to join in, and to see the heroes of the world.”
Chen Qing thought that if he entangled Li Chonghuan, it would create an opportunity for Hu Yao and Snow Wolf Lord, which wouldn’t be bad.
Let him wait until the city falls, then see what he has to say.

Chen Qing stepped forward, “You all wait here for now.”
He ascended the stairs to the second floor, sitting opposite Li Chonghuan.
Li Chonghuan took out a bottle of Chi Ling Powder and poured it into the wine, “Merely ordinary wine, for the likes of us with God Demon Bodies, it’s rather weak.”
“Add some lethal poison, and it certainly has more taste.”
Chen Qing sniffed the aroma of roasted meat beside him, “Roasted Dragon Marrow?”
Li Chonghuan nodded, “Correct.”
Chen Qing said, “You’re not afraid of offending the dragon clan.”
Li Chonghuan disdainfully said, “Just serpents, after all, they still need to rely on Da Yan to survive.”
“Now that the Dragon Palace army is nearly annihilated, they have no say in the Death Realm.”
While roasting the Dragon Marrow, Li Chonghuan rolled up his sleeves, “By the way, music, chess, calligraphy, painting, which do you prefer?”
Chen Qing pondered for a moment, “Music, I suppose.”
Having tapped his fingers on the table to play tunes, he had some slight familiarity.
Li Chonghuan was slightly surprised, “You claim to be the Cultural Lord of Nanli, writing books and creating doctrines, possessing the fortune of literature for a millennium, yet you don’t like books?”
Chen Qing said, “Books would be too much bullying for you.”
“Besides, I naturally don’t like them.”
Li Chonghuan laughed, “If you say that, it’ll surely shock the world. Writing books and founding teachings surpassing the achievements of all in the Heavenly Master Mansion for hundreds of years, yet you say you don’t enjoy them.”
Li Chonghuan clapped his hands, “Bring the Canghai Dragon Roar.”
Soon, a lute made of dragon whiskers and dragon bones was delivered.
