What a lucky world!

Chapter 249: Someone is catching a dragon?
Chilong, a dragon, has no horns.

"There are two kinds of Chilong," Long Yunbo explained. "One kind is born from weak dragon energy from its parents, and its horns haven't grown yet when it hatches."

"The other is the one that just crossed the Dragon Gate Tide and transformed itself into a dragon from a fish."

"The so-called Dragon Gate Tide is the result of the dragon race's destiny. Once you cross the Dragon Gate Tide, your destiny will transform you into a dragon."

"However, at this point, although you have a dragon body, you don't have a dragon soul. You need to go to Dragon Island and continue practicing before you can become a true dragon."

"The first kind of Chilong was too young to have crossed the vast ocean to reach the Land of Great Fortune. Therefore, the one who killed Old Man Guan must have been the second kind of Chilong."

Zhang Mu heard this and asked in confusion, "Why are you so sure it was Chilong who did it?"

Long Yunbo: "The way Old Man Guan died was due to the dragon's innate ability - the water trapping technique."

"There are three types of dragons."

"One is called a true dragon, the second is called a Chi dragon, and the third is called a Jiao dragon."

“If a real dragon had landed in Dayun, it would have alerted the masters long ago.”

"And the dragon, which brings wind and rain, cannot hide its moisture, but there is no trace of it in Old Man Guan's room."

"So, the death of Old Man Guan must have been caused by the Chilong that crossed the Dragon Gate Tide but did not reach Dragon Island."

Zhang Mu frowned slightly: "The last time the Longmen tide..."

"About twenty years ago." Long Yunbo said.

Zhang Mu was even more puzzled: "So, this Chilong hasn't been to Dragon Island to practice in twenty years?"

Upon hearing this, Long Yunbo was also puzzled. "I can't understand this either. Logically, after crossing the Dragon Gate and transforming into a Chilong, the path to Dragon Island would naturally awaken in one's bloodline. One should have gone to Dragon Island immediately. How could one have stayed there for twenty years?"

"But that's the situation right now."

Zhang Mu nodded and asked, "Brother Long, why do you think this Chilong wants to kill Old Man Guan?"

"Need I say more?" Long Yunbo snorted. "I don't know how that old man Guan used some method to divine the whereabouts of the spirit fish, breaking the spirit fish's ability to seek good fortune and avoid danger."

"Fortunately, he knows what he's doing and calculates three times a day, so he won't be able to alert the dragon clan in a short period of time."

"But that Chilong is a fish that leaped over the Dragon Gate, and it hasn't yet reforged its dragon soul. It should still regard the spirit fish as a younger member of the same clan. It's normal for it to be angry and attack out of anger."

Zhang Mu heard another meaning from Long Yunbo's words and asked curiously, "You haven't reforged the Dragon Soul yet, but you still consider Lingyu your junior? Are you saying that if the Dragon Soul is reforged, you won't recognize him?"

"Of course." Long Yunbo nodded naturally. "After reforging its dragon soul, Chilong has recognized itself as a dragon. How could it still recognize fish?"

After saying this, Long Yunbo said, "Brother Shi must be aware of the relationship between our Long family and the Dragon Clan, so I originally wanted to warn that old man Guan not to interfere in the affairs of the spirit fish."

"But now that Chilong has taken action, it's not convenient for me to investigate this matter any further."

"I advise Brother Shi not to worry too much."

"This matter ends here."

Zhang Mu sighed softly.

That’s all you have to say.

I came here for the Shushan Earthly Branch Tiger Sword!

You do have a good sword on you, but you have such a strong background, I dare not steal it!

However, based on the information provided by Long Yunbo, Zhang Mu speculated that the opportunity to obtain the Earthly Branch Tiger Sword might not have much to do with the old man Guan, but rather with the Chilong.

After all, it is unreasonable to get the clues of opportunity bought with a thousand luck coins in one go.

Besides, isn’t Old Man Guan dead now?
"Brother Long, I have a presumptuous idea." Zhang Mu thought for a moment and bowed to Long Yunbo, "I would like to ask for your guidance, Brother Long."

Long Yunbo was stunned for a moment, then nodded generously: "Brother Shi, please speak."

"Brother Long, can you find that Chilong?" Zhang Mu said, and then explained, "I'm traveling around the world this time because I want to broaden my horizons."

"To be honest, I've never seen a dragon!"

As Zhang Mu spoke, a look of longing appeared on his face.

Seeing this, Long Yunbo shook his head and said, "Although our Jingying City is related to the Dragon Clan, it is ultimately a human force. The elders in my family may have seen the Dragon Clan, but I have never had such an opportunity."

"As for the Chilong in the city..." Long Yunbo waved his hand. "If the Chilong transformed into a human, even a Grandmaster wouldn't be able to recognize it unless it intentionally released its dragon energy."

"I can't find it."

"Besides, that person has been hiding for twenty years. He must not want anyone to know... huh?"

Before he could finish his words, Long Yunbo suddenly paused and looked in one direction.

"What's wrong?" Zhang Mu asked.

Long Yunbo stood up and said, "Brother Shi, your mouth is now blessed."

"What do you mean?" Zhang Mu was puzzled.

Long Yunbo pointed in the direction he was looking and said, "There's a dragon's energy fluctuation over there. It must be that Chilong!"

……

The bright moon is in the sky.

South of Qingyuan City, a tributary of the Yinglong River runs across the entire city, irrigating the land for hundreds of miles around Qingyuan City and flowing into the sea.

At this moment, there is silence on both sides of the river.

Two figures appeared on the side of the river bank from afar. They were Zhang Mu and Long Yunbo who were following the dragon energy fluctuations.

Zhang Mu had not noticed the fluctuations of dragon energy, but as soon as he arrived nearby, he sensed the residual fluctuations of Yuan Qi in the air.

"There was a big battle here before!" said Zhang Mu.

Long Yunbo nodded and looked around as if he was looking for something.

Soon, Long Yunbo seemed to notice something, walked quickly to a place, and picked up something from the ground.

Zhang Mu looked sideways and found that what Long Yunbo was holding in his hand was a bloody scale.

"It's dragon scales!" Long Yunbo met Zhang Mu's gaze and said softly.

Zhang Mu frowned slightly: "Someone is here to kill that Chilong?"

"That's right." Long Yunbo nodded and said, "The Chilong was defeated and transformed into a dragon, trying to escape into the water, which is why it released its dragon energy."

"Did the Chilong escape?" Zhang Mu asked.

Long Yunbo carefully examined it again and shook his head: "I don't know."

Zhang Mu pondered for a moment and said, "There's something fishy about this."

"When we went to the City God Temple, Old Man Guan had already died."

"This means Chilong left earlier."

“And yet it was attacked.”

"There is only one possibility, that is, the people who attacked Chilong arrived earlier than us!"

Hearing this, Long Yunbo echoed Zhang Mu's words and said, "In other words, the attackers already knew Chilong would go kill Old Man Guan, and were waiting there."

"Could it be..."

Zhang Mu and Long Yunbo exchanged glances and said in unison, "Old Guan is the bait!"

Zhang Mu nodded. "Someone taught Old Man Guan the method of divination with spirit fish, and then used this method to attract the Chilong's attention and deliberately lure it out from the vast sea of people."

Long Yunbo's face was solemn: "Catch the dragon!"

"Brother Long, judging from the fluctuations of Yuan Qi remaining in the air, he should only be at the Ju Dan realm." Zhang Mu said.

Long Yunbo nodded: "Before Chilong recast his dragon soul, his highest level was only equivalent to the Condensed Gallbladder Realm."

Speaking of the Gallbladder Condensation Realm, Long Yunbo and Zhang Mu looked at each other again and said a name at the same time -

"The old Jianluo family!"
