Chapter 361: The Majesty of the Candle Dragon
Su Yie used his right hand to draw the jade bracelet towards him through the air, and upon touching it, he felt a chill that seeped into the palm of his hand, making his mind feel cold.
"What is this? A storage bracelet?"
Su Yie examined the jade bracelet and thought to himself. Inside the bracelet, the little snake resembled a worm. On closer inspection, one could see many tiny scales on its body.
He sent his Divine Sense into it, trying to check the interior.
The recent incident of Luo Yu's possession had deepened his understanding of the Great Dao Communication Device.
At least in the Ancient Wilderness, soul attacks were ineffective against him.
The Great Dao Communication Device could even control Yang Jian; there couldn't be anyone in the Ancient Wilderness who surpassed the power of the Great Dao Communication Device.
After his Divine Sense entered the jade bracelet, the little snake inside twisted slightly, as if it had come to life.
This scene was captured by Su Yie, who narrowed his eyes.
The jade bracelet was not a storage bracelet; perhaps it was merely used to confine this little snake.
"Is this the Candle Dragon?"
Bai Yuan exclaimed in Su Yie's mind, astonished.
The Candle Dragon?
Su Yie was stunned. He had heard of this name, a significant figure in Hua Xia mythology, even dubbed the Creator God.
The Candle Dragon opens its eyes and it turns to daylight; it closes its eyes and darkness falls, it even had the power to control the four seasons.
This worm-like little snake was the Candle Dragon?
"Su Yie, are you done?"
Nan Xiaopao couldn't help but ask again, seeing Su Yie standing there in a daze, she wondered if he had been bewitched.
Su Yie turned and smiled, "Come over here."
The Candle Dragon was sealed within the jade bracelet and couldn't pose any threat for now.
Upon hearing this, Nan Xiaopao quickly trotted over, and she also thought the jade bracelet in Su Yie's hand was a storage bracelet.
"What? The Candle Dragon?"
Nan Xiaopao widened her eyes and asked incredulously.
Su Yie nodded and said, "Maybe it's a youngling."
Would Luo Yu carry it around if it were a youngling?
Thinking this, he sat down cross-legged, passed the Blood Gourd to Nan Xiaopao, and began sorting through Luo Yu's memories.
Most of Luo Yu's memories were about slaughter; the Qirin Tribe was also an overlord in ancient times, ruling over terrestrial beasts, much like the Golden Crow Divine Race of the Eastern Lands, but the Qirin Tribe was stronger, its influence spanned the entire Ancient Wilderness.
Soon, Su Yie saw images related to the Candle Dragon, a creature thousands of miles long, swallowing clouds and exhaling mist, howling over the earth, striking fear into all creatures. Stay updated via My Virtual Library Empire
Perhaps it descended from this small Candle Dragon.
In the images, the Candle Dragon was extremely powerful, battling a towering Qirin that ultimately called upon numerous birds and beasts for help before finally defeating the Candle Dragon.
The towering Qirin was none other than Luo Yu.
Luo Yu had also been a well-known figure during his lifetime, and many of today's legends about the Qirin Progenitor originated from him. Of course, the real Qirin Progenitor was even stronger, having disappeared in the Ancient Wilderness long ago, his fate unknown.
If he were still alive, who knows how terrible he could be.
The images related to the Candle Dragon ended there; the rest of the memories were of no help to Su Yie for the time being, not even those of Luo Yu's cultivation— they were merely like a dream to him.
Su Yie opened his eyes and said, "Let's prepare to leave; the underground restrictions have disappeared, and there are no other treasures."
With the destruction of Luo Yu's wraith, the restrictions disappeared. He scanned with his Divine Sense and found that despite the extensive network of tunnels beneath the ground, there were no treasures, only some Spirit Stones of low grade, unable to pique Su Yie's interest.
Their finds this time were the jade bracelet and the Qirin Iron Armor; he didn't like wearing the Qirin Iron Armor, so he placed it in the Repository of the Dao.
"Aren't you going to avenge Qing Jushi?"
Just before leaving, Nan Xiaopao asked.
Su Yie's gaze moved to the huge toad, which was still sprawled on the ground motionless, looking like a mountain.
"Come out."
Su Yie said calmly, feeling that Qing Jushi's life force was still present, not dead, and inside the toad's stomach.
Upon hearing this, Nan Xiaopao focused her gaze and saw something moving inside the toad's abdomen, as if a ball was moving around.
The toad couldn't help but spit out Qing Jushi, who was covered in mucus as he fell to the ground, looking utterly disgusting.
A foul stench began to spread, causing Nan Xiaopao to frown and cover her nose involuntarily.
Qing Jushi was vomiting as well, and even Su Yie couldn't help feeling nauseous.
He grabbed Nan Xiaopao's arm and turned to leave.
"Wait for me..."
Qing Jushi quickly got up, his voice hoarse and even suffocating.
Watching Su Yie and the others leave, the toad remained motionless.
It wasn't until Su Yie and his group had left the surface that it rolled over, belly-up, looking quite comfortable.
Elsewhere, Qing Jushi jumped into the river to bathe, cursing as he washed, "When has Emperor Qing Xiao ever been so humiliated? If I were still at my peak, I would definitely kill that toad!"
Su Yie and Nan Xiaopao couldn't be bothered with him and continued to examine the Candle Dragon.
In the jade bracelet, the Candle Dragon lay motionless like a specimen, hardly resembling the legendary Candle Dragon.
"Demon Emperor, stop looking or you might awaken this little Candle Dragon. Don't be fooled by its size; it used to be quite formidable back in the day."
Qing Jushi reminded from the river, still wearing his Taoist robe while bathing, which was simply insane.
Su Yie looked at him and asked, "Do you know it?"
"Nonsense, I have witnessed the Ancient Wilderness during the Great Emperor era, do you think I'm joking?"
Qing Jushi bragged, causing Su Yie to roll his eyes.
Once Qing Jushi had cleaned up, Su Yie and Nan Xiaopao flew away on the Ant Queen. As for Qing Jushi, they wouldn't even dream of letting him stand on the Ant Queen's head.
This was how Qing Jushi begrudgingly flew through the air, complaining about Su Yie all the way; after all, he was Emperor Qing Xiao!
Su Yie paid him no mind and focused on the invitation list in his mind.
Please invite any of the following creatures to join Emperor Su's Sect!
Emperor Qing Xiao!
Cao Cao!
Emperor Liu!
Great Emperor Meng!
Ji Bubai!
Divine Ghost Emperor!
...
Su Yie had seen this list multiple times, and every time he saw the first name, he felt the urge to beat up Qing Jushi.
If Emperor Qing Xiao were really Qing Jushi, choosing Emperor Qing Xiao would definitely be a mistake.
Besides, he also saw Cao Cao, and Liu Guanzhang appeared, he wasn't surprised by the reappearance of Cao Cao; at most, it was just impressive.
After pondering for a while, Su Yie made a decision.
Emperor Su invited Divine Ghost Emperor to join Emperor Su's Sect!
Black Tiger Emperor: Divine Ghost Emperor? Just the name sounds like a big shot!
Ren Wopiao: Are you this timid now? It's time for me to be the new guide!
Savage Devouring Heavenly Mouse: Amazing, this name sounds very powerful, even more so than the Undying Emperor.
Undying Emperor: Humph.
Yue Qinglong: With the Ghost Emperor coming, it's comparable to the presence of an Immortal Emperor.
Divine Ghost Emperor: Who are you all? Are you seeking death in my mind?
Tang Qingtian: You're still posturing? Grandmaster, teach him a lesson! Such arrogance isn't allowed in Emperor Su's Sect!
...
"Su Yie, we have a new member in the sect!"
Nan Xiaopao shook Su Yie's shoulder, excitedly saying.
It felt thrilling like a newbie entering a group.
