Absolute Resonance Chapter 0849: The Unhappy Li Fengyi

Chapter 0849: The Unhappy Li Fengyi

When the familiar, cold voice came from his back, Li Jingtao turned his head with a little difficulty and saw Li Fengyi standing behind him. He smiled awkwardly and said, "Hehe, Second Sister, hi."

Li Fengyi stared coldly at Li Jingtao and sneered back. "You're good. You've hidden it really well. You never even told me about it. Did you have fun hiding behind me every time you saw me standing up for you?"

Hearing this, cold sweat dripped down from Li Jingtao's forehead, and he hurriedly shook his head. Attempting to get back on her good side, he replied, "Second Sister, what are you talking about? The main reason I hid it is that I really don't think it's worth mentioning. Besides, I dare not talk about it. The Annihilation Fang Art is a well-known attacking technique from the Dragon's Fang Lineage. I am afraid others will laugh at me if I use it for defense!"

With tears in his eyes, Li Jingtao continued, "I was also afraid of being scolded by Father and the Respected Elder if I had revealed it. I definitely didn't hide it because I wanted you to help me out!"

Hearing this, Li Fengyi let out a cold snort and crossed her arms.

At this moment, Li Jingtao gave a dry laugh and took out a jade bottle. It contained the Mystical Yellow Dragonbreath that he had just gotten. "Second Sister, this is for you. Don't be mad anymore!" he said.

"Who cares about that?!" Li Fengyi rejected his offer.

Li Jingtao was helpless in this situation, so he looked towards Li Luo in a plea for help. He knew that Li Fengyi would give him a dressing down after he had revealed his skill, so he had already sought help from Li Luo beforehand.

Looking at the situation on hand, Li Luo chipped in a few good words. "Second Sister, don't be mad. You should understand Eldest Brother's personality. His situation is indeed special. He did not hide it deliberately, but probably felt like he couldn't use it all this while."

In response, Li Fengyi retorted, "Defensive arts are also good to have in your a.r.s.enal. Why couldn't he use it? The Dragon's Bone Lineage focuses primarily on defense, yet I don't see them being embarra.s.sed about it." Despite her sharp words, her expression had started to warm up a little. It seemed like she was generally still in a good mood, considering the spectacular achievements from Li Luo and Li Jingtao. The Dragon's Fang Lineage had finally shown the outsiders their capabilities.

It was just that Li Jingtao's skill had truly and utterly caught everyone by surprise. This was even more shock-inducing than the fact that Li Luo had managed to escape from Qin Yi's trap earlier. She was just feeling bad considering all the times in the past where she had to stand up for Li Jingtao when faced with provocations from the other banners.

This guy clearly had a special talent. Why did he always hide behind her whilst acting mediocre?

If not for him helping Li Luo today, who knew how much longer Li Jingtao would have kept his real strength hidden?

At this point, Li Jingtao kept nodding to show that he understood his mistake and would not make it again.

Li Luo also took out his jade bottle with Mystical Yellow Dragonbreaths. He then said with a smile, "Speaking of which, I have to thank you for helping me to deal with Li Lu back in the isolation area, Second Sister. If not for your a.s.sistance, I wouldn't even have made it in. Here's a small token of appreciation. Please don't turn it down, Second Sister."

Li Fengyi took a look at it and shook her head. "It's okay. No reason is needed to help family members. Besides, your actual strength is still lacking compared to the rest of us, so you need the boost from the Mystical Yellow Dragonbreath the most."

Nonetheless, Li Luo insisted on his offer and pressed the jade bottle into her hands. He continued with a smile, "Don't worry, Second Sister. As you've seen, I got a total of seven strands of Mystical Yellow Dragonbreath. That's more than enough."

Seeing his persistence, Li Fengyi finally gave in and nodded. She took the jade bottle with her hand and replied with a bright smile, "Alright. In that case, I will accept it."

At the same time, she gave Li Jingtao a fierce glare and warned him, "I will spare you this time for Little Brother's sake."

Li Jingtao was relieved when he heard this, and he nodded with a flattering smile. He also gave Li Luo a grateful look for his help. As expected, Li Fengyi would not blow up at him as long as their Third Brother was around.

At this moment, Li Fengyi directed a satisfied smile toward Li Luo as she continued, "Little Brother, you have done a really great job today. You didn't get to see the faces of those guys from the Dragon's Blood Lineage earlier—it was almost like they had fallen into a vat in a dyehouse."

Li Luo smiled and responded, "Actually, I just got lucky. Qin Yi needed to divert her power away in order to keep the palace up. As a result, she could not use her full power in the fight. Otherwise, I would probably have lost."

This comment was indeed true. Qin Yi was extremely terrifying. With just her own power, she had managed to hold down all the other Banner Leaders for a long time. If it were an individual battle, Li Luo would not have stood a chance even with the power of Harmony.

Furthermore, her Invincible Water Jade Armor was a Soul Ascension-grade body tempering Duke Art that strengthened her body tremendously. Coupled with the insane recovery from her ninth-grade water resonance, he would definitely not have been able to break through her physical defense if not for the strand of Cosmic Sword Intent. It was really fortunate that he had the sword intent from cultivating the Myriad Resonances Dragon Fang Sword Formation and had it secretly hidden within the b.a.l.l.s of lightning from his Lightning Twister Plantain Fan.

"There is no need to belittle yourself. After all, Qin Yi possesses a ninth-grade water resonance and has lived in the Heavenly Origin Divine Continent since she was a child. The cultivation resources she has consumed are far beyond what you have gotten until now. As such, it is only natural that she is ahead of you for now.

"However, your cultivation progress is really fast now. When you eventually catch up with her, you will not need to be afraid of Qin Yi anymore," Li Fengyi said to comfort him.

Li Luo nodded cheerfully.

He had obtained seven strands of Mystical Yellow Dragonbreath today. Even after giving one to the Three-tailed Heavenly Wolf and another to Li Fengyi, he still had five strands for himself. This was akin to twenty-five thousand strands of abstruse fiend light, which was sufficient to fill up his three resonant palaces.

He could leverage them to break into the Fiend Body Tier. Most likely, he would be able to skip the Silver Fiend Tier and enter the Gold Fiend Tier straight away.

When that time arrived, the gap between his strength and that of the top talents like Li Qingfeng and Qin Yi should narrow considerably. While the three of them chatted with each other, Lu Qingmei also dropped by to congratulate him. Li Luo was truly grateful to her. After all, she had helped him out when he was trying to secure the Golden Dragon Pillar earlier.?r?e???????Ɩ. com

"You managed to injure Qin Yi and break out of the palace first. This saved some face for us, the Heavenly Dragon's Five Lineages. As such, you deserve the Golden Dragon Pillar," Lu Qingmei replied to his grat.i.tude.

At the same time, she expressed some curiosity and interest in Li Luo as she said, "You've gotten seven strands of Mystical Yellow Dragonbreath. Looks like you will enter the Fiend Body Tier really soon. When that time comes, let's have a serious fight between the two of us. Let me see your power with the third realm of dual resonances."

Li Luo looked at her helplessly. She was indeed a martial arts fanatic, setting up their next battle right away. It seemed like his escape from Qin Yi had made Lu Qingmei even more interested in him.

Shortly later, they sent Lu Qingmei off. Li Luo and the rest returned to the Dragon's Fang Lineage side, where they received lots of praise from the elders.

With that, the Mystical Yellow Dragonbreath Pool battle, one of the highlights of the birthday celebration, had come to an end. Nonetheless, the birthday celebration continued on for the next few days.

Li Luo and the juniors were no longer involved in the following celebrations, but there were still many matters to be discussed with the different powers gathered in Dragon Blood Mountain.

As such, Li Jinpan brought the juniors from the Dragon's Fang Lineage back shortly after the Mystical Yellow Dragonbreath Pool battle.

Naturally, Li Luo was really pleased with this. With the Mystical Yellow Dragonbreaths already in his hands, it was pointless to hang around in the Dragon's Blood Lineage any longer. The most important thing now was to hurry back and prepare for his breakthrough into the Fiend Body Tier.
