Born Saints: Starting from Liaozhai

Chapter 117 The Seven Constellations of the Azure Dragon Shine Together!

Over these four hundred and twenty years.

Su Chen saw many things and people.

Aside from studying the mysteries of the cycle of rebirth in the misty mountains, he would occasionally sneak out of the misty mountains when he was bored.

Thus, by chance, he witnessed the Wu king Fuchai's army pressing in, forcing the Yue kingdom to surrender.

Then there's Goujian, the King of Yue, who later became a servant of King Fuchai of Wu, along with his wife.

He led the horse for King Fuchai of Wu, swept the floor for King Fuchai of Wu, and even tasted King Fuchai's excrement to determine his illness and so on.

Su Chen didn't know how to complain, and could only mutter that the ancients were really good at having fun.

Therefore, everyone in the Wu Kingdom looked down on King Goujian of Yue.

King Goujian of Yue kept his head down the whole time, seemingly neither angry nor willing to fight.

King Fuchai of Wu thought that Goujian's spine had been broken, so he let him return to his country, which led to the story of Goujian sleeping on firewood and tasting gall every day.

I watched all of this quietly.

Su Chen took a slight breath.

My first thought was, "King Goujian of Yue, this man must not be allowed to live!"

Of course, this is his perspective from the point of view of an ordinary person. From the perspective of a horned dragon, even if it lay still, King Goujian of Yue couldn't do anything to it, so it didn't matter.

The humiliation that an ordinary person could not bear, the King of Yue was able to endure. If he had let him go, what would have happened?

All I can say is, they absolutely cannot be allowed to live!

Unfortunately, King Fuchai of Wu ultimately lacked knowledge and understanding, having read too few novels.

Su Chen observed silently.

Watching King Goujian of Yue endure ten years of hardship, I saw ministers such as Fan Li and Wen Zhong, and even the ancient beauty Xi Shi, who was sent to the State of Wu by King Goujian of Yue.

Under the influence of the beauty trap, King Fuchai of Wu gradually became addicted to pleasure, neglected state affairs, and alienated his loyal ministers.

Ultimately, the Yue Kingdom launched an attack, and the Wu Kingdom suffered a crushing defeat. King Fuchai of Wu, with nowhere to turn, stood on the city wall and committed suicide.

King Goujian of Yue successfully avenged his defeat and became a hegemon.

As a wise man, Minister Fan Li saw through everything and knew that once the cunning rabbit dies, the hunting dog will be cooked, so he retired.

Another minister, Wen Zhong, was eventually forced to commit suicide.

After observing the stories of the King of Wu and the King of Yue, Su Chen returned to Misty Mountain, accumulating energy and occasionally venturing out.

In the blink of an eye, more than four hundred years have passed.

In the pitch-black night.

The bright moon and stars twinkled in the night sky.

Mount Wushan.

The bright moonlight still shone on the top of the misty mountain.

While basking in the moonlight, Su Chen glanced at the control panel.

[Innate Talents & Constitution: Horned Dragon (True Dragon)]

[Energy required for the next stage of physical transformation: 124015320]

Energy: 124015321

"Finally, I've saved enough—"

Looking at the energy that had finally accumulated over 429 long years, Su Chen's eyes revealed a strong sense of anticipation.

That's a full four hundred years!

God knows how long he'd been accumulating this!

At the same time, Su Chen felt a surge of curiosity. "Now that I'm a horned dragon, a true dragon, what will I become after my next transformation?"

Logically speaking, a true dragon should be considered the pinnacle and end point of the transformation of an ordinary dragon.

But strangely enough, his physical transformation was somewhat unreasonable, and he could continue to improve.

At this moment, filled with curiosity and anticipation, Su Chen did not hesitate and immediately mobilized the energy for his physical transformation.

Energy: 2

In an instant, countless energies vanished, transforming into countless warm currents that flowed within his true dragon body!

Under the power of his innate physical transformation, his true dragon body is rapidly transforming!

Su Chen felt a numb itch all over his body, and his skin gradually stiffened, lost its color, and began to shed again.

However, just when he thought this time would be the same as the previous times.

As his body undergoes transformation, he is influenced by the gradual transformation of his body.

In the pitch-black night sky, seven special constellations shone brightly!

Horn, Neck, Root, Room, Heart, Tail, Winnowing Basket!

The Seven Mansions of the Azure Dragon!

They were bright, like the moon, shimmering in the night sky.

The endless starlight of the Seven Mansions converged towards the misty mountain and towards Su Chen's transforming body.

In an instant, Su Chen felt a strange change occur in his body.

He even felt that he was gradually developing a wonderfully close connection with the seven constellations of the Azure Dragon in the sky.

In a daze, he seemed to see himself transformed into the Seven Mansions, looking down on everything.

It was as if he were the Azure Dragon's Seven Mansions, and the Azure Dragon's Seven Mansions were him.

Just as his perspective became confused...

In the pitch-black night sky, the seven constellations of the Azure Dragon suddenly became bright.

And the sight of endless starlight converging towards the misty mountain was also seen by countless people with a keen eye.

While studying etiquette in Huaiyang, Zhang Liang was also traveling east to visit Cang Haijun, befriending assassins, and gathering information on the King of Qin's whereabouts. At this moment, he was secretly discussing the assassination of the King of Qin with a strong man.

He wore a faded blue old scholar's robe, his figure was slender and upright, his face was like beautiful jade, his eyebrows were like swords, and his eyes were as deep as a cold pool, filled with hatred.

Zhang Liang looked out the window towards the Qin state, his eyes burning with hatred—hatred for King Ying Zheng of Qin.

"King Qin, I will surely shatter you to pieces!"

Zhang Liang murmured.

It was the King of Qin who caused his country to be destroyed and his family to perish!

Just as his overwhelming hatred surged...

Suddenly, the night sky outside the window lit up.

Zhang Liang looked up in confusion.

Above the dark sky, seven special constellations shone brightly!

"This is----"

Zhang Liang murmured in a daze, his expression suddenly changing drastically, his eyes filled with disbelief.

"The Seven Mansions of the Azure Dragon?!"

He was well-versed in poetry and literature and knowledgeable in astronomy and divination; how could he not know what the Azure Dragon's Seven Mansions meant?

The appearance of the Azure Dragon signifies good fortune, and the seven constellations of the Azure Dragon symbolize the Mandate of Heaven and royal power in the East!

Now that the five states have been destroyed, Qi is on the verge of collapse, and the King of Qin is about to conquer the world and eliminate the six states, the Azure Dragon constellation suddenly shines brightly—

Could it be that destiny is truly going to fall to Qin?

Zhang Liang gritted his teeth, his face was ashen, his chest heaved violently, and the hatred in his eyes was almost tangible.

Heaven doesn't bless the six states, nor does it bless the state of Han, yet it seems to protect the tyrant King of Qin!

Zhang Liang clenched his fists tightly, his knuckles turning white, and looked at the Azure Dragon constellation in the sky, his heart sinking to the bottom.

South of the Yangtze River.

Old Wuzhong area.

Xiang Liang was nearly forty years old, dressed in dark, close-fitting clothes. His face was resolute, his temples were slightly gray, and his eyes were sharp as an eagle's. He exuded a fierce and experienced aura.

Beside him stood a child who was only about ten years old.

Although young, he was tall and had clear, domineering eyes. His black hair was simply tied up, and even at such a young age, he was already extraordinary.

It was none other than Xiang Yu.

The night sky suddenly brightened for a moment.

Xiang Yu was the first to look up in confusion, pointing to the sky and asking, "Uncle, what is that? Why is it suddenly so bright?"

Upon hearing this, Xiang Liang subconsciously looked up, and then his expression changed drastically.

"The Azure Dragon's Seven Mansions have appeared?!"

As if struck by a sudden thought, his pupils constricted, his breath caught in his throat, and a storm raged within him.

Xiang Liang's expression shifted constantly, his eyes filled with a mixture of surprise, doubt, and worry. He stared intently at the night sky, his hand gripping the hilt of his sword trembling slightly.

Xiapi.

Outside a thatched hut.

An elderly man dressed in a dark gray Taoist robe was sitting cross-legged on a rock.

-

He was tall and thin, with snow-white hair, an aged face, and an air of otherworldly elegance.

"The Seven Mansions of the Azure Dragon?"

Looking at the night sky, Huang Shigong, the foremost Taoist master of his time, became solemn.

Langya in Qi.

Xu Fu, around thirty years old, with a neatly trimmed long beard, dressed in the robes of a Qi dynasty official, and possessing a gentle and refined appearance with a touch of ethereal elegance in his eyes, was also gazing at the night sky.

"The Azure Dragon's Seven Mansions Shining Together?!"
