Chapter 005: Inciting the Crimson Dragon to Commit Murder
" giggle, little brother is so obedient. How about accompanying your sister for a drink?" Consort Hu teased Yang Chen with a smile.
"Sure, it's an honor to be invited by my sister," Yang Chen replied cheerfully. However, he showed no intention of leaving.
As expected, "Second Sister, I still have some things to discuss with Brother Yang. Let him find you later," Crimson Dragon said.
"Okay, big brother, I won't disturb you any longer. You two continue," she said before turning to leave. Xiao Tian, Zhang Yang, Liu Xian, and Luo Kuang also left one after another.
"Brother Yang, if I'm not mistaken, you should be a Fighter, right?" Crimson Dragon inquired.
"That's right, a One Star Fighter," Yang Chen answered.
"A One Star Fighter can break through the Five-Star Battle Emperor's Protective Battle Qi! Just thinking about it is shocking," Crimson Dragon said.
"It might be due to the uniqueness of my combat skills. Now, I can no longer find that initial feeling. I'm afraid I can't ambush stronger opponents like that anymore," Yang Chen lamented, realizing that the current System might be updating this bug.
"Combat skills? Could it be a Divine-Level Combat Technique?" Crimson Dragon asked.
"It might not be; I learned it from a damaged book. It utilizes the principles of the Five Element Escape Technique to reach a designated location," Yang Chen explained but withheld some details.
"Seeing big brother's actions today, the relationship with the Silvermoon City Lord seems more complicated than mere enmity?"
"Sigh, it's obvious to anyone with eyes. Silver Moon is my fiancée. Back then, in pursuit of this kind of wandering life, I quietly left my family and also abandoned my engagement with the Silver Moon Princess," Crimson Dragon reflected.
"Princess??" Yang Chen asked.
"Guardian Duke Chi Tianba is my Grandfather," Crimson Dragon replied.
"Turns out, big brother is still a nobleman," Yang Chen said with a grin.
"Heh." Chi Long helplessly smiled and said, "Actually, I envy you all. You don't have to care about so many rules; you can live however you want. Eat meat heartily, drink wine freely. When tired, the sky is your blanket, the earth is your bed, sleep against a tree, sit on the ground. There are no constraints."
"So, big brother, you ran away from your marriage?"
"Yes, I hate political marriages. At that time, my feelings for Silver Moon were only sibling-like. Our families had a good relationship; my grandfather was the sworn brother of the previous emperor. You could say that without my grandfather's hard work, there wouldn't be a Jia Shi Dynasty. Later, someone commented that without the Protector of the Nation, there would be no Jia Shi Dynasty. The emperor promised to marry Princess Silver Moon to me since childhood as a reward for our family," Chi Long reminisced.
"What about now? Do you still feel the same way about Princess Silver Moon?" Yang Chen asked.
"Sigh, ever since I left home, I escaped to this ancient forest. Further in is the wild land—the Forbidden Mountain Range. I spend my time hunting monsters there and then rest in what is now Silver Moon City. This place wasn't originally called Silver Moon City; it was called Monster Suppression City. It was the first line of defense against monster attacks on the Jia Shi Dynasty. Later, when Silver Moon learned I was in Monster Suppression City, she requested the emperor's permission to come out and train, and then she came here and renamed it Silver Moon City. Her persistence moved me; if time could take me back to the past, I would never have run away from the marriage. Sigh."
Chi Long said. "Big brother, it's never too late to mend the fold after losing sheep. Sister-in-law must be waiting for you in the city right now. If big brother goes and says a few warm words now, it might not be impossible to win her back!" Yang Chen encouraged.
"Me? Can I? I've hurt Silver Moon so deeply; she must hate me to death now." As soon as this topic came up, Chi Long began to retreat.
"Big brother, how would you know if you don't try? Sister-in-law has been with you in Silver Moon City all this time; that shows her feelings for you. Big brother, go! I believe you can bring Sister-in-law back!" Yang Chen urged.
Looking at Yang Chen's serious expression, Chi Long resolutely said, "Alright, brother, I'll give it a try."
After saying that, he decisively took off toward the Lord's Mansion. "Big brother, good luck!"
After thinking for a moment, Yang Chen felt something was off; both Chi Long and he were proud individuals and might end up making things worse. After some thought, a mischievous smile appeared on Yang Chen's face. He walked into Tianxiang Tower and found Crimson Tooth and his group. He forcibly pulled Luo Kuang out from among them. "Luo Kuang, do you have any medicine?"
"What kind of medicine?" Luo Kuang asked with a puzzled expression.
Yang Chen helplessly clarified further: "It's the kind that makes a moment worth a thousand gold."
"Oh? Brother Yang, what bad thing are you planning? Hehe." Upon hearing this, Luo Kuang perked up.
Yang Chen revealed an understanding look. "I don't have that medicine; go find Zhang Yang. That guy has done quite a bit of research on this matter."
"Alright, Brother Luo Kuang, then it won't affect your drinking. I'll go find Brother Zhang."
Zhang Yang was greatly impressed by Yang Chen; a mere One Star Fighter could break through the Protective Battle Qi of a Five-Star Battle Emperor. As soon as Yang Chen called, Zhang Yang immediately came out.
"Brother Zhang, I heard you have extensive knowledge of potions. Do you have any recommendations?" Yang Chen asked.
Hearing Yang Chen's tone, Zhang Yang knew what he was thinking. He wiped his right-hand ring, and a potion bottle appeared in his hand, which he tossed to Yang Chen, saying, "This is called Widow's Madness, which I made myself. If two people are in a state of infatuation, they won't feel anything unusual. Even a Demon Lord would fall into love. This is one of my proudest creations."
"Thanks. Brother Zhang, this ring of yours is a storage ring, right?" Yang Chen asked.
"That's right! Why? Don't you have one?" After looking at Yang Chen's fingers and noticing he wasn't wearing any rings, he glanced down at Yang Chen's thighs and saw two Sword God Weapons tucked away.
"I was careless. Brother Yang, I'll have the boss give you a storage ring later. That way, you won't have to hide your weapons on your body; you can just take them out from the ring when needed."
"It's fine, Brother Zhang. I don't really need to carry anything anyway. It’s the same whether I have a Storage Ring or not. Now let's try out your proud creation. Hehe." A mischievous smile appeared on Yang Chen's face as he turned to leave.
"This Yang Chen is truly mysterious; his combat skills are hard to guard against. If he were an enemy, you'd never know when two daggers would cut your throat. This person can only be a friend," Zhang Yang sighed again after saying this.
"This must be the lord's mansion, right? Inside, I can sense the presence of two Dukes. If I go any further, I'll be discovered by Red Dragon Brother, and that wouldn't end well." After a moment of silence, Yang Chen looked around and spotted a rooftop not far away, less than 40 meters from the lord's mansion.
"Deceptive Phantom Step!" In an instant, Yang Chen arrived on the rooftop where Crimson Dragon and Silver Moon were located. He focused and listened intently.
