Fantasy: Ten Dragons Compete for the Throne, I, the Villain, Choose to Play it Off

Chapter 108 An Innate Sense of Closeness?
Li Qiye's eyes gleamed when he saw this scene.

It seems that the disciples of these grotto-heavens are all very harmonious and will not have any disputes.

However, mythical beasts like the Phoenix and the Purple Jade Qilin still hold a transcendent status among the people.

At this moment, the sky darkened, and as a bright moon hung high in the sky, the sun in the sky slowly dissipated. That sun was originally created casually by the Divine Sun Immortal Lord.

The sky was filled with twinkling stars, and the moonlight seemed to be a beacon illuminating the entire fairy island, making Penglai Fairy Island exceptionally bright and ethereal.

Celestial birds and mythical beasts frolicked and played right before everyone's eyes, and some celestial birds even poured wine, served celestial fruits, and poured fine wines and nectars for everyone.

Li Qiye raised his cup to drink with Phoenix Rainbow, already slightly tipsy.

"When will those immortals or immortal lords preach to us?" Li Qiye asked.

"Still early."

The Purple Jade Qilin said with a smile, "The immortals will only preach after the Feast of Fine Wine and Jade Elixir begins."

"As for whether those immortal lords will preach, that depends on their mood."

"The immortal will not preach for several months?"

Li Qiye looked completely bewildered. He downed the wine in his glass in one gulp and asked, puzzled, "So what were we doing all this time?"

"Naturally, we will discuss the Dao with each other and even have competitions, but there will be no ranking. Instead, we will verify our own cultivation and then identify and fill in any gaps in our knowledge."

Phoenix Rainbow spoke.

Her eyes were like water, as if the effects of alcohol were taking hold, making her gaze hazy and beautiful as an angel.

"And another thing is, exchanging feelings with each other."

Jian Wuhen winked at Li Qiye with a hint of ambiguity, then glanced at Feng Huang Nishang beside him; the meaning behind his glance was self-evident.

Everyone present laughed, having already noticed that Phoenix Rainbow's attitude towards Li Qiye was unusual.

Especially Jian Wuhen, Zi Mo Qilin and others, who had known Phoenix Nishang for a long time, had seen through this point long ago.

Upon hearing this, Li Qiye wore a wry smile.

He thought to himself, "You guys probably have misunderstood!"

In fact, Li Qiye knew very well that Phoenix Rainbow felt close to him, perhaps because of the Southern Ming Fire!
This is the Vermilion Bird's natal flame. Although the Vermilion Bird is a deity, it has the form of a divine beast and is similar to the Phoenix Clan, so it is inevitable that they will feel close to it.

A moment later, Phoenix Rainbow Dress approached gracefully, carrying a cup of fine wine, her colorful divine robes outlining her perfect figure.

Her innate noble temperament makes her the center of attention wherever she goes.

Her watery eyes held a hint of intoxication as she smiled and raised her glass to Li Qiye.

"Brother Li, let's talk in private."

"it is good."

Li Qiye smiled and nodded.

Li Qiye and Phoenix Nishang walked side by side on the beach, like a perfect couple, or even a pair of celestial lovers. They drank together from time to time, and at the same time, they showed charming smiles on their faces.

Not far away, the Purple Jade Qilin watched from afar, shook its head and said, "Having known her for so many years, I thought she was pure and abstinent, and would never be moved by anyone."

"Brother Li is no ordinary person."

Jian Wuhen smiled and said, "You casually took out a pill and Dan Chenzi became obsessed with it. You don't really think that his master obtained it by accident, do you?"

"Besides..."

A strange light flashed in his eyes as he continued, "His physical strength is completely illogical. As a Qilin divine beast, it is understandable that you are born with a strong physical body, and you should also be able to sense his physical strength."

"The person who could develop such a cultivation system is probably not an immortal!"

Upon hearing this, the Purple Ink Qilin nodded and said, "You mean that Brother Li's master is likely a Celestial Lord, but his physical body is indeed terrifying. Even Ao Qinglong is probably slightly inferior."

Ao Qinglong!
This is a real dragon!

Among their peers, they were absolutely recognized as having the best physical body.

"If Ao Qinglong heard this, he probably wouldn't say anything and would want to have a match with Brother Li," Jian Wuhen said with a smile.

Just then, Jin Pengwan'er, who had been silent all along, suddenly spoke up: "I don't know if you've noticed, but he looks a lot like someone."

Who does he resemble?

He had been staring at the single-layered paper used for studying the elixir when he suddenly asked a question.

"Now that you mention it, it seems familiar, like I've seen it somewhere before."

Jian Wuhen gazed at Li Qiye strolling on the beach with Fenghuang Nishang and fell into deep thought.

For a moment, everyone fell silent, clearly thinking about this question.

"Why are those guys staring at us like that?"

Phoenix Rainbow looked up at that direction, her face full of doubt.

At this moment, she seemed to be unabashedly displaying the unique temperament of a phoenix.

"Ignore them."

Li Qiye chuckled to himself.

He didn't listen and had no idea what those guys were saying.

What is it about you that I feel so close to, as if it were innate... I just have this feeling of closeness.

At this point, Phoenix Rainbow Robe leaned over and sniffed Li Qiye repeatedly, her beautiful eyes filled with intoxication.

"Does it need to be like this?"

A faint fragrance wafted from Phoenix Rainbow Robe, and Li Qiye's gaze flickered as he looked at her so close.

"Perhaps this is just my imagination."

Phoenix Rainbow Dress smiled, her voice like heavenly music.

Li Qiye felt that the legendary phoenix's soft cry must be just like this, capable of attracting thousands of birds to dance together, and it was definitely not an exaggeration.

As a phoenix, her voice truly possesses a unique charm.

A colossal creature floated in the azure sea, its aura terrifying, yet none dared approach Penglai Immortal Island.

Just then, a golden divine bird flapped its wings in the sky and swooped down from dozens of miles away from the immortal island, plunging headfirst into the sea.

Its sharp claws, like divine weapons, gleamed with cold light, snatching a massive, dragon-like sea fish from the ocean before disappearing in an instant.

Li Qiye frowned upon seeing this scene.

It seems that this small world is not as peaceful as I imagined; at least there is killing involved, I just haven't seen it before.

"The harmony I've witnessed is something that can only be found within these circles of immortal disciples..."

Li Qiye muttered to himself, his brows furrowing slightly.

"This is their way of survival, and we cannot interfere."

Phoenix Rainbow seemed to misunderstand the meaning behind Li Qiye's frown, thinking that he disapproved of these things, so she spoke up to explain.

"I know."

Li Qiye smiled calmly.

He had a strange feeling that outside the secret realm, there was clearly a lot of killing and fighting, and even he was in the midst of the perilous struggle for the throne among the ten princes.

However, Phoenix Rainbow, who had almost no experience of struggle, comforted her instead.

Suddenly, Phoenix Rainbow stretched out her hand with lightning speed, her hand shimmering with light, and pointed a finger at Li Qiye's chest.

"Is this what a competition is?"
