Immortal God of War

Chapter 1145 - 1080: Little White Dragon, Stop!

The night was as dark as ink!

Fatty trailed behind Li Yan, continually moving deeper into the mountains.

"Where is she going?"

If she continues, she’ll reach the holy land.

The General Tower has rules; ordinary disciples cannot casually enter the holy land.

Who knows how much time passed.

Suddenly!

Li Yan stopped in her tracks, looking towards the mountain stream below.

Fatty suspiciously looked down, only to see a pool in the stream below, about a hundred feet across, with clear waters but deathly silence.

Li Yan’s gaze was fixed on the pool.

"Is she planning to jump in and end her life?"

Fatty was startled.

Just as this thought occurred to him, Li Yan suddenly swooped down, her target precisely the pool.

"Oh no!"

Fatty was shocked and hurriedly flew to intervene, but before he got close, he stopped.

He saw that Li Yan did not jump in to end her life but landed by the pool, gazing at the water’s surface.

Still, Fatty dared not relax his vigilance.

After enduring successive blows, Li Yan must be feeling terrible; she might suddenly do something foolish.

He silently landed within the woods by the pool, hiding in the shadows, keeping a close eye on Li Yan.

"Little White, I’m here."

Suddenly.

Li Yan gently spoke toward the pool, a slight smile appearing on her face.

"Little White?"

Fatty was slightly stunned, scanning the water’s surface. Who was she talking to?

Splash!

Not long after she spoke, the water’s surface suddenly rippled with waves.

Whoosh!

In the next moment.

A white streak of light shot out from the water, landing in front of Li Yan.

It was a small creature, not quite like a snake, about the length of a chopstick, entirely white like jade, emitting a faint glow under the night sky.

"No way!"

Looking at the little creature, Fatty was dumbfounded.

On the little creature’s head, he saw a white horn, as translucent as mutton-fat jade.

And beneath its abdomen, Fatty saw four claws!

Its two shiny black eyes were as bright and enchanting as gemstones.

"This, this, this..."

"It’s actually a little white dragon..."

"Am I hallucinating?"

Fatty was in disbelief, rubbing his eyes vigorously, once again looking at the little creature.

"It’s not a hallucination!"

"It’s really a little white dragon!"

Fatty’s gaze trembled, filled with shock.

Dragons are legendary creatures, but unexpectedly, they do exist!

Li Yan extended her slender arm, caressing the little white dragon’s head, smiling, "Little White, have you missed me during these days?"

"Yiya-yiya!"

The little white dragon called softly, its little head nuzzling Li Yan’s palm, seemingly enjoying her caress very much.

"Incredible, this woman actually has a little white dragon hidden by her side."

Fatty murmured, his eyes glowing.

Dragons are the supreme beings of all creatures; anyone who sees one would be moved.

Li Yan held the little white dragon in her hand, her eyes filled with motherly affection, and asked, "Little White, after all this time, why can’t you speak yet?"

The little white dragon looked at Li Yan with innocence, shook its little head, and made a helpless expression.

"Cute little thing."

Li Yan lovingly held the little white dragon in her arms, sitting on a green stone by the pool, gazing at the remnant moon half-hidden by dark clouds, her face once again showing sorrow.

"If Master Fatty were that little white dragon, how wonderful it would be."

Watching the little white dragon snuggle endlessly against Li Yan’s chest, Fatty was filled with jealousy, envy, and hatred.

All beings are creatures, why is the difference so vast?

The night wind was a bit chilly.

The little white dragon gradually noticed the abnormality in Li Yan, raising its little head and looking at her suspiciously.

"Little White, do you know? So much has happened lately, I can hardly hold on."

Li Yan murmured.

The little white dragon looked at her, half-understanding.

Li Yan withdrew her gaze, looked at the little white dragon’s lively eyes, and smiled, "You won’t understand now."

The little white dragon pouted to express dissatisfaction.

"You little thing, seeing you makes me feel better, but... this might be the last time I come to see you."

Li Yan sighed, her expression full of melancholy.

The little white dragon still appeared naive.

Following this.

Li Yan spoke many more words to the little white dragon.

Time passed by bit by bit.

Soon.

The sky began to lighten, and a morning sun slowly rose.

Li Yan glanced at the sun, her face withering like a flower, exuding a kind of desolate beauty.

"Alas!"

She sighed deeply, holding up the little white dragon, and smiled, "Little thing, I really can’t bear to part from you..."

"But in this world, there is no feast that lasts forever."

"You must live well, for you and I are different."

"My fate is already determined..."

"But you, one day in the future, the world will worship you as a god..."

"No one can bind you..."

"No one dares to dominate your destiny..."

Li Yan finished speaking, holding the small white dragon, reached toward the pond, and smiled: "Go ahead!"

"Yiya, yiya!"

The small white dragon didn’t jump into the pond, it waved its claws, as if expressing something.

Li Yan said: "Are you saying that we’ll go to the outside world together in the future?"

The small white dragon nodded repeatedly.

Li Yan’s expression turned slightly gloomy, but then she smiled brightly and nodded: "Alright, I’ll wait for you."

The small white dragon chirped excitedly a few times, then affectionately stretched out its tongue, licked Li Yan’s palm, turned around, leapt into the pond, and disappeared.

The water’s surface quickly calmed.

"Finally, it’s leaving."

The most bored tonight was Fatty, not able to do anything, he just squatted there, almost driving himself sick.

However.

He was there, watching Li Yan, but he noticed that Li Yan hadn’t left yet.

"What else do you want to do?"

Fatty gradually frowned.

Suddenly.

Li Yan took out the Qiankun Bag and pulled out a dagger.

Fatty’s pupils shrank, and he immediately became alert.

"Father, mother, I’m sorry, I can’t marry an old man..."

"Grandfather, Yan’er is coming to accompany you."

Li Yan murmured to herself, suddenly clasping the dagger, aiming for her chest.

"Damn it, she really did something foolish!"

Fatty’s face changed, and like an ape, he burst forward, landing instantly in front of Li Yan, grabbing her wrist.

That dagger had already cut through her clothes at her chest, almost piercing the heart.

"Luckily I got here in time, or else Boss would have killed me with his scolding."

Fatty wiped off cold sweat, snatched the dagger from Li Yan’s leadership, and angrily said: "Why are you being so foolish? What good does this do you?"

"Hm?"

Fatty’s sudden appearance surprised Li Yan greatly.

Fatty helplessly said: "I’ve been secretly watching you all along, just afraid you’d do something stupid."

Li Yan was startled, then shook her head and said self-deprecatingly: "I didn’t expect anyone in this world to care about me. You ask what good this does me, I tell you, it offers me relief."

Fatty said: "These are just trivial matters, do you need to be so pessimistic?"

"My most beloved grandfather died."

"My father also wants me to marry an old man, is this still a small issue?"

Li Yan stood up angrily staring at Fatty, shouting.

"Is it that serious?"

"Who doesn’t face some setbacks in life? If everyone behaved like you, seeking death at the slightest thing, wouldn’t people on this earth go extinct?"

"Moreover, your grandfather wouldn’t want to see you like this either."

Fatty said.

"I know..."

"I understand everything you’re saying..."

"But the thought of spending the rest of my life with Fu An-shan terrifies me..."

Li Yan squatted on the ground, hugging her legs, falling into despair and pain.

"Sigh!"

Fatty sighed deeply, squatting beside her, patting her back, comforting: "It won’t happen, trust me, things will get better."

"I trust you."

"But tell me, what should I do?"

"I don’t want to marry him!"

Li Yan turned around and hugged Fatty, like a helpless child, crying bitterly.

The beauty in his arms left Fatty a bit at a loss, not knowing where to place his raised hands.

Finally.

He placed his hands on Li Yan’s shoulders, comforting: "Don’t cry anymore, you’re not a child, face your difficulties with courage, not escape from them."

Upon hearing this, Li Yan pushed Fatty away forcefully, sneered: "Anyone can say these words, you don’t understand how I feel right now."

"I don’t understand?"

Fatty got angry too, stood up, pointed at Li Yan’s nose, and yelled in anger: "You think you’re suffering? Let me tell you, there are plenty of people worse off than you!"

"For example, I genuinely liked a woman; and what happened? She just used me to get closer to our Boss."

"Do you know how painful it was to find out the truth?"

"But I understand one thing, only by living can one have, so I didn’t seek death like you."

"I also hope you can pull yourself together because surprises often come at the end."

Fatty said meaningfully.

Li Yan fell silent, stopping her sobs.

After a long, long time, she looked up at Fatty, asking: "Who was that woman?"

"Chu Xuan."

Fatty replied.

"Chu Xuan?"

Li Yan thought for a while, said: "I’ve heard of this woman, seems like with Guo Feng..."

Fatty nodded: "Yes, the woman who used to be involved with Guo Feng."

Li Yan said: "I’ve heard of her too; doesn’t seem as bad as you say!"

"That’s why she’s called a scheming woman."

"I’m telling you, she was excellent at disguising herself, I followed her every day and didn’t notice a single flaw, until Boss discovered it."

Fatty spat with disgust.

"Then you really had it rough."

Li Yan gave a sympathetic look at Fatty, got up slowly, and smiled: "Hearing what you’ve gone through, I actually feel a bit better."

Fatty’s face turned dark, angrily said: "So much for being friends, can you not be so blatantly happy at my misfortune?"

"Hehe."

Li Yan shook her head, smiling: "Rather than gloating, it’s more like we’re sharing a mutual fate."

"I was deceived, you’re being forced to marry, is that really a shared fate? Doesn’t even relate!"

Fatty glared at her.

Buzz!

Suddenly.

The Image Crystal Stone in Fatty’s pocket buzzed.
