Immortal and Martial Dual Cultivation

Chapter 1859 (Raw 1871): Amorous Glances

The little monk hammered on the Heavenly Book Scholar for fifteen minutes before his anger subsided.

Then, the little monk leaped and landed on the stone table.

The anger on the little monk’s face had yet to disappear. When he looked at the familiar people around him, they all looked like giants.

The little monk was so frustrated that he wanted to vomit blood. After a nap, he actually woke up as a baby.

The little monk simply found this unacceptable. The difference was too big.

“Haha! Little Demonic Monk Silver Saber, you really fit your nickname now. Hahaha!”

Upon seeing the little monk’s angry yet very adorable appearance, Jiang He burst into laughter.

The Heavenly Book Scholar got up in a sorry state, his face bruised and swollen. He looked at Xiao Chen before shifting his gaze to the little monk. This was truly an invincible pair.

One’s fate contained great horror and could not be divined. The other’s fate did not even need to be divined and was already very horrifying.

With these two demonic geniuses working together, they were really undefeatable.

The Heavenly Book Scholar was famed for reading the lives of all common men and always being calm, in full control of the situation as he fanned himself. However, after meeting these two demonic geniuses—one big and one small—the Heavenly Book Scholar could only hide as far as he could.

“The instant I changed the Heaven Bewildering Formation to a Heaven Sealing Formation, the diviners of the Heavenly Mystery Tower could already divine our location. If there is any trouble, don’t blame it on me,” the Heavenly Book Scholar said with a sullen expression. Then, he closed his folding fan and waved it a few times.

Light flickered in all directions, and the Heaven Sealing Formation broke on its own. After that, his figure quickly flashed as he flew off.

However, when the Heavenly Book Scholar left the courtyard, he discovered that Xiao Chen, Jiang He, and the little monk completely ignored him.

These people paid the Heavenly Book Scholar’s words no mind at all.

Being ignored like that for the first time, the Heavenly Book Scholar felt depressed.

“Get up and stop trampling on the character I wrote.”

Xiao Chen grabbed the little monk’s baby waist and lifted him like a cat. The little monk cried out and flailed his limbs.

However, the little monk still could not avoid his fate of being tossed into the sling.

“Why! Why am I so unlucky?!”

Inside the sling, the little monk threw a tantrum. His voice sounded a little choked.

Jiang He smiled and said, “This little fellow really does not recognize his fortune. His physical body has been reconstructed, and he has completely transformed. His strength improved further, and his future potential is boundless. Who knows how many older-generation experts would go crazy from envy after seeing you?”

“I don’t care. I want to become big! I want to become big!”

The little monk sadly flailed around, swinging his fist and pounding messily on Xiao Chen’s back.

“Pu ci!”

Xiao Chen let out a dull grunt. The blow had made him vomit blood. He showed a pained expression.

This startled the little monk, and he immediately stopped moving, lying quietly in the sling. “Big Brother, are you alright?”

“It’s just a small injury, not a problem. Be gentler next time.”

Xiao Chen gently wiped away the blood on his lips. His expression did not change as he focused on the character he wrote.

Jiang He, who was at the side, was flabbergasted, incredibly shocked. “Brother Xiao, aren’t you too calm about this?”

“I’m used to it,” Xiao Chen said as though nothing had happened.

What was vomited blood, compared to that pat that nearly killed him at the bottom of the stone pillars’ abyss? This was simply not worth mentioning.

It was not that Xiao Chen was calm. It was really that he was already inured to it.

After being with the little monk, one would never be shocked at unexpected occurrences.

However, Jiang He still felt shocked. How lucky did one have to be to offset the little monk?

Since Xiao Chen was still looking at the character for “moon” on the paper, Jiang He asked out of curiosity, “Brother Xiao, why did you write ‘moon

“That’s right. That’s right. Why?”

The little monk on Xiao Chen’s back was like a cat. He patted Xiao Chen’s back and showed his little head, looking like a curious baby.

That was not right. The little monk was a curious baby now.

“I don’t know. The moment I lifted the brush, I thought of the moon. Perhaps I have an affinity with the moon in this life. Many of the Martial Techniques I practice are related to the moon. Even the person that I love has the word moon in her name,” Xiao Chen answered honestly, not hiding anything.

Jiang He consoled, “Actually, there is no need to mind it too much. Even if he can see the fate of all men, he is not omniscient. I believe that Brother Xiao can achieve anything you set your mind to. If you want peace, just work towards it with all your might. There is no need to stop doing what you want to do.”

“Perhaps.”

Xiao Chen put away the white paper, revealing the saber mark that the Heavenly Book Scholar had made. Then, he looked at Jiang He and asked, “Do you want to become the Dragon Emperor?”

Xiao Chen’s sudden question made Jiang He’s eyes flicker. After some silence, Jiang He said, “Let’s not talk about that.”

That is strange. It seems that he had some troubles that are hard to talk about.

Xiao Chen observed carefully. His sharp senses picked up some other things.

It was like Jiang He found some things difficult to put into words.

“I want to be the Dragon Emperor,” Xiao Chen said seriously as he looked straight at Jiang He. He had no intention of stopping here.

This declaration stunned Jiang He. Then, he smiled and said, “I’m not the only one that says this, but even though you have the bloodline of the Dragon Race, Brother Xiao, it is not of the Six Colored Divine Dragons. It is good to have such ambitions, but don’t take it too seriously.”

Xiao Chen smiled when he heard that. “It seems like you are not of a noble bloodline, either.”

Jiang He said sullenly, “I am different.”

“Perhaps I am also different in the same way you are?”

These words seemed somewhat roundabout, but what Xiao Chen wanted to express was still very clear.

Jiang He smiled awkwardly and said, “Brother Xiao, please stop joking.”

Xiao Chen looked calmly at Jiang He and enunciated every word carefully, “I never joke. I really want to become the Dragon Emperor. I am very clear about what I am thinking. I am also very clear of my target. I will put in my best effort to achieve that. Even if my life is the price, I will not mind.”

There were some things that were best said in advance. Since they were competitors, there was no need for Xiao Chen to hide it.

Xiao Chen was very clear of his own character. He was not willing to, nor did he want to hide it from Jiang He. He was not such a person.

“You are serious?”

Jiang He’s expression changed slightly, his smile fading. His expression turned slowly cold and serious.

“What do you think?” Xiao Chen countered with a question. He did not want to see such a situation happen, but sometimes, it was unavoidable.

The two looked straight at each other. At this moment, the relationship between the two, which was originally already rather close, turned somewhat strange.

The two exchanged looks, sparks seeming to fly between them.

“Interesting. No wonder I hit it off with you from the start. Aside from being of the so-called mixed-dragon bloodline and being bladesmen, we actually have the same target.”

Jiang He revealed a mocking smile. However, it was not clear whether he was mocking himself or Xiao Chen.

Fate toyed with men. Sometimes, one felt speechless when facing heaven.

Few bladesmen could catch Xiao Chen’s attention. Even fewer were the people whom he considered worth making friends with. Without a doubt, Jiang He was one of these very few people.

However, it was such a person that actually had the same goal as Xiao Chen.

Not only were the two unable to become confidants, but they might even become enemies.

It was possible that in the fight to become the Dragon Emperor, they would end up as sworn enemies.

“Speaking of which, the two of you are staring at each other, doing your best to appear fierce. However, there is no murderous intent. You did not infuse your wills of soul into your auras, either. Is this the legendary amorous glances? This little monk doesn’t understand it.”

The little monk’s infantile head appeared over Xiao Chen’s shoulder. He rubbed his head as he spoke, trying to understand.

The scene of two outstanding talents clashing against each other—where love or hatred was hard to distinguish—instantly crumbled.

The scene changed. The baby little monk made the somewhat awkward situation even more awkward.

The two awkward men quickly looked away, no longer daring to stare at each other.

Xiao Chen sat down once again. As he looked at the saber mark that the Heavenly Book Scholar left behind, he reached out to touch it.

At that moment, something strange happened.

The saber mark disappeared, and a saber light that was like flames rose and gathered into a light screen.

Scenes flickered on the light screen.

There was an ancient throne at the top of some steps.

Three vague figures, each radiating a powerful saber intent and holding sabers, dashed up the steps with all their might.

Along the way, fresh blood dripped off the tips of their sabers, leaving a long trail.

“The road of sovereigns, the Dragon Emperor’s throne!”

Jiang He was slightly startled. He immediately recognized the throne and steps. He anxiously focused his eyes on the light screen.

Just as Jiang He focused his attention, the scene flickered. In the next moment, he could see only one person’s feet stepping towards the Dragon Emperor’s throne.

As that person turned around, the scene suddenly vanished as the light screen shattered.

Jiang He did not see who ascended to the Dragon Emperor’s throne in the end.

However, he could be sure that the ones at the end were three bladesmen.

He was about to say something when the three’s expressions all suddenly changed.

They looked up at the night sky. There were several strong auras currently rushing over to this place.

The trouble that the Heavenly Book Scholar mentioned had arrived.
