86 - Liu Chen V

Liu Chen widened his eyes when he saw the mark that was under Tao Mu's neck. "This sign.. It can't be!" muttered.

Tao Mu who saw Liu Chen's reaction became astonished, "What's the Gang?"

Liu Chen adjusted his breathing and restored the calm that had been lost earlier. He shook his head, "Nothing"

"But you looked very surprised"

"Ehm.. Not really.. I just thought that sign I'd seen before. But it turns out that I just looked wrong, ha ha", Liu Chen laughed awkwardly.

Tao Mu nodded in understanding.

"I can't tell him" Liu Chen's inner.

"Ehm.. Gang, where's your other friend?" said Tao Mu.

Liu Chen shook his head, "I don't know where they are. I just happened to find you here"

"Are we just looking for them?"

Liu Chen nodded, "We look for them together. I'm worried about them"

"Good!"

The two of them started walking back.

Liu Chen glanced at Tao Mu. "I have to watch him. Don't make.. It's happening. But how do I know this?", he looked back at the front in confusion.

Elsewhere, in the forest with giant trees. Song Quon and Han Liangyi stood facing each other.

"Eh?! Why did I meet you?! I'm looking for Chen!" song Quon said in annoyance.

"Well, do I want to meet you here?" han Liangyi said with a frown.

"Tck, I want to go back to look for Chen", Song Quon began to walk straight ahead.

"From myself, I better go with her" Han Liangyi's inner. He followed Song Quon.

"Heh, why are you following me?!"

"I want to go there too. Don't be so confident that I want to follow you!" han Liangyi.

"Then you go first!"

"I want to enjoy the journey. So don't blame me if I'm behind you" Han Liangyi tried to defend himself.

"So, just tell me you want to follow me?" muttered Song Quon. He ignored Han Liangyi and kept walking forward.

Liu Chen with Tao Mu continued walking for a whole day inside the bamboo forest. But they have not yet found outside the forest.

"Actually.. How big is this bamboo forest? Since then, we have not reached outside the forest" said Tao Mu.

"I don't know. Is this one of the other exams?"

"What test do you mean?"

Liu Chen explained that the exam he was referring to was just a guess and according to him the blood mist forest was a testing ground to go somewhere.

Tao Mu nodded when he heard Liu Chen's explanation.

Liu Chen suddenly stopped walking. He immediately coughed up blood. "Ohuk.."

You were surprised to see that. He helped Liu Chen stand up because the young man looked a bit limp. "What's wrong with you? What's going on?"

"I'm good at sa-uhuk.", Liu Chen felt his body growing limp.

Seeing this, Tao Mu immediately led Liu Chen to a stone and laid the young man there.

Liu Chen's face looked pale. Now he has fainted.

"What exactly happened?" murmured Tao Mu with worry. He tried to telepathize. "Huh?! Why can't you?!", surprised.

Now, Tao Mu could not do telepathy. Tao Mu became confused as to what to do. He was very worried when something bad happened to Liu Chen. So, all Tao Mu could do right now was wait for Liu Chen to awaken.

The next day, Liu Chen started to open his eyes. "Gr"

Seeing that Liu Chen was starting to come to his senses, made Tao Mu happy. When Liu Chen was about to sit down, Tao Mu directly helped Liu Chen.

"What happened?", Liu Chen's left hand held the head.

"Finally you're conscious, huftt. I was so worried about you earlier" Tao Mu said with a sigh. He began to tell Liu Chen what had happened, beginning when Liu Chen stopped walking and coughed blood. "What's really going on with you?"

Liu Chen nodded. His face is not as pale as yesterday. This time his body improved as well. "Actually my situation yesterday was due to the effect of using the shadow step and ice element simultaneously continuously. It finally hurt me"

"Then you don't use it continuously. If not, then your situation may get worse. You can use it when things are very desperate" Tao Mu said as he looked directly at Liu Chen's eyes firmly and worriedly simultaneously.

"But.", Liu Chen was speechless looking at Tao Mu's gaze. The demon looked very worried about him and Liu Chen could see that Tao Mu was really sincere about him. Before, there had never been a demon who was truly sincere to him, except his father when in his first life. But in this life, he found three demons who were sincerely worried about him.

"Alright I will work on it" Liu Chen said with a sigh.

Tao Mu smiled.

"We should leave now" Liu Chen said.

"But what about you?"

"I'm getting better. Don't worry about me. Up ahead, there must still be a lot of difficult and dangerous places that we have to go through. So we can't waste a lot of time here."

Tao Mu nodded, "If you're better, then fine. But when you feel pain again, tell me. We'll rest first"

Liu Chen smiled, "Alright"

They continued their delayed journey. After walking for a full day, they had now reached outside the bamboo forest. In front of them was a huge lake. Across the lake is a forest.

Both of them flew straight over the lake. Meanwhile, in the lake appeared bubbles of water bubbles and water like turbulence.

Until finally came out a lot of tentacles from the bottom of the lake. The tentacle tentacles directly charged towards Liu Chen and Tao Mu who were on it.

Liu Chen who realized that immediately shouted, "Be careful, Mu!"

Tao Mu looked towards where Liu Chen was staring. He was surprised to see the giant tentacles heading towards him so quickly. He flew so high that the tentacles did not hit his body. "Whoops.."

"Is that.. The kraken? But.. Why do kraken live at the bottom of the lake? Don't kraken live in the sea?" liu Chen muttered in confusion.

Liu Chen directly took out the fire phoenix sword and flowed his Qi into the sword. He unhesitatingly slashed the tentacles that were heading towards him.

CRASH

"Tentacle is so loud. Even I need quite a lot of Qi to cut it" Liu Chen murmured. He yelled at Tao Mu, "You stay there. Because if you help, then you might get hurt. These tentacles are so loud!"

"But Gang.."

"Nothing but a tapi. You get away from here. Let me take care of this kraken matter", Liu Chen stared down at the bottom of the lake. There he could see the shadow of something big.

"All right, take care of yourself. If anything happens, I'll go straight to you and help you!" said Tao Mu. He flew away from the lake and went into the forest.

Liu Chen nodded. It also shot straight down.

1 hour later...

"It is not in vain that we meet with kraken in a place like this" Liu Chen said. He bit the meat he held. He smiled happily.

After defeating the kraken, Liu Chen immediately brought the demonic beast meat into the forest and met Tao Mu. Tao Mu helped season the kraken meat with spices that were in the forest. He and Liu Chen immediately burned it.

"Taste you well too, Mu" Liu Chen said. He really enjoyed this new food.

"U-um.. Gang, where's the rest of the meat I had in front of you?" said Tao Mu doubtfully.

"Eh? Why why anyway? I just finished eating it when you went to the lake" Liu Chen said guiltlessly.

"That's.. Actually for me" said Tao Mu softly.

"Didn't he just take more roast than me? Then why is he still not full and in fact.. Eating my grilled meat?" inner Tao Mu sighed.

"Ah, Mu! You just stay here. We just grilled some of the kraken meat earlier. So there's still leftovers. Let me make it. You sit quietly here. This is my apology" Liu Chen said.

"But I'm gonna trouble you"

"Not bothered at all. After all, you also made food for me earlier. After my turn", Liu Chen smiled as he pointed to himself wearing a thumb. A confident expression appeared on the young man's face.

Tao Mu became moved to hear it. He nodded, "Thank you"

Liu Chen instantly took out a huge meat from within his s.p.a.ce ring. I also look for spices around and immediately make spices. After he finished, he smeared it onto the cleanly washed kraken meat earlier.

After he finished, Liu Chen started grilling the meat. "You'll definitely like it!" muttered Liu Chen. Smile too.

"Well! I can't believe I'm going to be able to taste the prince's legendary cuisine that people are saying!" inner Tao Mu was very pleased. He became impatient waiting for the kraken meat to ripen.

After waiting for a while, Liu Chen had finally finished grilling the meat. He gave it to Tao Mu. "Hehe, my food looks good, doesn't it?" he said with confidence.

Tao Mu nodded in spirit. He immediately picked up the cooked meat and started biting. The corner of his eye let out tears.

Seeing that, Liu Chen immediately smiled happily, "What does it feel so good that you are moved like that, Mu?"

Tao Mu raised his thumb. Before long, his body fell to the ground with the flesh he was still bitten by.

Liu Chen was surprised. He immediately shook the body of Tao Mu, "Mu! You why?! Mu! Don't faint because it's so bad! You?!"

A few hours later...

Tao Mu began to open his eyes and found himself in the forest. "really right.. Legendary" he muttered. He also has a pale face when he imagines how the food he eats earlier. "I don't want to eat it anymore"

He looked around and knew he was still in the same place. When he looked to his right side, he could see a young man who was asleep leaning against a rock. "The prince seems exhausted. I can't bother him" murmured Tao Mu.

Liu Chen suddenly opened his eyes and noticed that his breathing was irregular.

Seeing that his prince was awake, Tao Mu immediately approached Liu Chen. "Are you okay?" he said worriedly as he looked at Liu Chen's difficult-looking face.

Liu Chen who was still calming himself was shocked by Tao Mu's arrival. He reflexively pushed Tao Mu to make the unprepared demon fall.

Tao Mu was surprised by what Liu Chen was doing. Vice versa. Liu Chen had no intention of pushing Tao Mu like that. "Pardon me", that was all Liu Chen could say at this moment.

Tao Mu changed his position to sit. He sat down beside Liu Chen and watched the young man closely. "You why?"

Liu Chen shook his head quickly, "I was just a nightmare earlier. What about your situation? Are you okay?"

Tao Mu nodded, "I'm fine. My tongue is not so good"

"Next time, don't be so moved. Just eating my cooking you were so moved that you even fainted", Liu Chen shook his head.

Tao Mu smiled awkwardly and said, "Feel you very well. So I got there like that," but in my heart, "New? Yes, I'm moved.. Very impressed with the prince's cooking.. It felt.. I don't want to eat it anymore.. True said people cooking prince is a legendary.. In another sense"

Liu Chen took out the meat that had not been eaten earlier from within his spatial ring, "Then, spend it"

Tao Mu turned pale. He shook his head, "I'm not hungry anymore. You can keep it, "this is all that Tao Mu can say. There was no way he could be frank with the taste of the food.

"alright. In that case, let's continue the journey", Liu Chen re-entered his food into the space ring. Standing too. So is Tao Mu.

When they had just stood up, an unfamiliar voice sounded. "Chen!"

Liu Chen and Tao Mu glanced towards the direction the voice came from. They saw two young men walking towards them at this moment. They were both Song Quon and Han Liangyi.

"You two" said Tao Mu.

"Huf.. We finally found you. We've been looking for you for a few days. We finally met" Song Quon said.

Liu Chen smiled, suddenly raising his hand. A cold wind with small ice grains instantly swirled in Liu Chen's hands. He looked at Han Liangyi and Song Quon.

Song Quon and Han Liangyi were instantly shocked to see Liu Chen directing such an attack towards them. Both of them directly channeled Qi throughout the body to protect them. They thought, maybe the Liu Chen they saw was not the real one and Liu Chen intended to attack them.

While Tao Mu thought that Song Quon and Han Liangyi who came here were enemies in disguise.

Liu Chen immediately threw an attack. Han Liangyi and Song Quon stared warily.

WHUSS

"Eh?!"

"Eh?!"

"Eh?!"

The attack passed through Song Quon and Han Liangyi. The attack hit a rock.

Song Quon, Han Liangyi and Tao Mu became clueless as to what Liu Chen was doing. He looked at the frozen rock. But I didn't see anything.

"What are you doing?" han Liangyi.

Liu Chen laughed awkwardly. He lowered his outstretched hand. "Ha ha ha, it's nothing. I was just bored. Cause some days don't even use my ice powers. So I'm using it now"

Song Quon, Han Liangyi and Tao Mu looked at Liu Chen as if in disbelief. "That's all?" say all three in unison.

Liu Chen nodded his head in a nod while scratching his non-itchy back head. "Ha ha sorry, I seem to have surprised you guys"

Song Quon and Han Liangyi sighed. So is Tao Mu. They thought, Liu Chen wanted to do what, apparently only wanted to bring out the power of ice.

Liu Chen still laughed awkwardly, "Damn it, I didn't mention it earlier", he was upset in heart.
