chapter-164
--- Chapter 164 ---
The day after the small tournament between the Golden Generation and the Tyrants, Yunlong calmly floated in a pond near his house.
"What are you doing..." Zhu Zhuqing quietly asked while looking at Yunlong.
Yunlong slightly opened his eyes and casually answered, "Hmm, I am just refreshing myself."
"Is that so?" Zhu Zhuqing tilted her head in confusion.Zhu Zhuqing slightly turned around and saw Bibi Dong walking toward them. "Are you ready? Qian Daoliu said you guys would go in a few hours." She calmly said.
"Well, That was fast," Yunlong commented while moving his gaze to Bibi Dong, who modestly looked at his body.
Bibi Dong shook her head and suddenly giggled a little, which caused Yunlong to frown slightly.
"Is there anything funny, mother?" Yunlong asked.
"Nothing." Bibi Dong smiled at him, "I just remembered what happened yesterday."
--- Yesterday ---
"We give up." Su Yanyu and Hu Liena wryly said at the same time.Liu Erlong raised her hand and declared, "The winner, Yunlong's team."
The audience still couldn't comprehend what happened in the last few minutes and blinked their eyes at Yunlong.
"Well, That was a surprise," Yunlong commented while casually throwing his sword away, which transformed into a strand of golden string.
"By the way, congratulations. You guys have passed." He continued, which caused Hu Liena and Su Yanyu to frown.
"What do you mean by that, young master?" Su Yanyu asked because he didn't seem to care about the spirit hall's representative team.
Yunlong laughed heartily and answered, "Since both of you were able to form a coordinated team in such a short time, why don't you two represent the spirit hall."
They were baffled by his words, and as they were about to refute his statement, Yunlong suddenly added, "Of course, only seven of you are going to the tournament. However, I'll let you guys decide that"
"See you later. I've got something to do." Yunlong abruptly disappeared from everyone's view.
"W-What!?"
Hu Liena and Su Yanyu put speechless expressions on their faces because Yunlong beat them for nothing.
Bibi Dong couldn't help but chuckle at this scene and muttered, "That's a very Yunlong way to have entertainment."
"Well, having the Golden Generation and the Tyrants as one team would at least solve their bickering problem," She continued while looking at Liu Erlong, who also smiled like her.

Yunlong also chuckled a little after hearing Bibi Dong's response and said, "What can I say? I don't want to attend such a boring competition."
"I see..." Bibi Dong nodded her head in consent because the difference of strength between Yunlong and the other team was basically too high.
'He could easily sweep them over.' Bibi Dong thought while looking at Yunlong proudly.
"Ah... What about them?" Yunlong suddenly asked while moving his gaze to Zhu Zhuqing.
Yunlong could bring his maids to the slaughter city, but he wasn't confident enough to protect all of them because the Asura God inheritance was there.
He also needs to investigate the angel god's trials first, which made him anxious for some reason, so bringing them there also wasn't a good choice.
"Don't worry about them. I'll train your maid when you're away." Bibi Dong calmly replied, which caused Yunlong and Zhu Zhuqing to stare at her.
"Eh? Really?" Yunlong asked, to which Bibi Dong responded with a slight nod.
Zhu Zhuqing felt excited for some reason when hearing Bibi Dong was going to train her. 'Yunlong was training under her from small, so she must have some special training.' She thought with brightened eyes.
However, if Bibi Dong knew what Zhu Zhuqing was thinking right now, she probably answered with, "You're wrong. Yunlong is strong because he's different from the others."
Bibi Dong knew Yunlong's worries and slowly shook her head in dismay. "I'll assure you they'd get stronger when you're back."
Yunlong smiled and replied, "Ok."
They went back to the wooden house and saw Liu Erlong waiting for them at the front door. "Can I go too?" She suddenly asked.
"Nope." Bibi Dong answered with a smile on her face.
"Ehh? Why?" Liu Erlong responded with a scowl.
Bibi Dong couldn't help but release a sigh and looked at Liu Erlong in a somewhat annoyed mood. "You have your own duty, remember?" She stated, which caused Liu Erlong to frown.
"Not only that, but you also told me that you want to become a referee in the incoming tournament?" She firmly continued, which left Liu Erlong quiet because she indeed said that a few weeks ago.
Qian Daoliu suddenly landed on the garden and looked at Liu Erlong with a frown. "Even if you want to go, I won't let you." He calmly stated.
Liu Erlong pouted and swayed her head away. "Hmph, Fine." She defeatedly replied while crossing her arms.
Qian Daoliu knew how hot-tempered Liu Erlong was because, in the past, she has barged into the elder hall because Ci Xue quietly bad-mouthed Yunlong.
Even though Liu Erlong's strength at that time was weaker than Ci Xue, she has enough raw power to injure him gravely.
Only a few people knew about this, including Qian Daoliu himself and Bibi Dong, because it would be an embarrassment if an elder lost to someone who just appeared in the spirit hall.
Qian Renxue also landed in the garden, and her clothes somehow look different.
She wore a flowing white robe with purplish golden embroidery and an elegant tiara, which enhanced her beauty.
(An: You can take a look at her Anime/Donghua looks)
"Yunlong." Qian Renxue approached him. "How do I look?"
"You look beautiful, big sister." Yunlong praised with a smile on his face.
"Hehe." Qian Renxue happily giggled and slowly hugged Yunlong's arms, which caused a few people around them to frown.
"Well, it's time to go." Qian Daoliu stated while floating to the skies.
He casually grasped Yunlong's clothes, and they immediately flew away from the spirit hall.
"Hmm, even though I just met him, he already went away again..." Liu Erlong muttered while looking at the skies.
"Hey, old man. You don't have to grab me violently like that." Yunlong protested because Qian Daoliu's grasp literally caught him off guard for a moment.
"Sorry, I don't know." Qian Daoliu gently responded with a smile that doesn't like a smile.
"Tch. I can fly on my own." Yunlong commented while releasing himself and Qian Renxue away from Qian Daoliu's hand.
"Yunlong...!" Qian Renxue closed her eyes and hurriedly hugged his body.
A pair of golden wings suddenly unfurled behind Yunlong's back, and they flapped quickly, which caused them to float on the skies.
"Let's go," Yunlong said while looking at Qian Daoliu, whose mouth twitched in annoyance.
Qian Daoliu turned around and flew away. "Follow me." He calmly said.
"Renxue. Hug me tightly." Yunlong softly instructed.
"Mhm." Qian Renxue nodded her head and hurriedly hugged him tightly.
Yunlong slightly circulated his spirit energy, and a strong wing flap occurred, which drove them toward Qian Daoliu.
They traveled for hundreds of kilometers, and surprisingly Yunlong's spirit energy wasn't exhausted by it because his flying technique would usually consume a lot of energy.
"We arrived." Qian Daoliu suddenly stopped and slightly took a peak beside him.
"Not bad." He commented while looking at Yunlong, who's able to keep up for hours without any rest.
Yunlong didn't mind Qian Daoliu's comment and slowly looked ahead to the place that would be the angel god's trials.
"This is... Floating Island?"
