Chapter 363: A Change in Temperament! Stirring Up Trouble! Decree of Bestowal!
When Li Yanchu and Fang Qinglan returned to the inn, the sky was already beginning to brighten.
The rooster crowed, and dawn spread across the land. The golden roosters of Yingchuan were famous throughout the realm, renowned for their fierce and unyielding nature.
Li Yanchu also noticed that within the city of Yingchuan Prefecture, the golden roosters were sharp of beak and claw, bold and majestic. Indeed, they were extraordinary.
Though they had not transformed into demons, nor cultivated spiritual energy, the saying went, “When the rooster crows, the world awakens.”
Such golden roosters were truly auspicious beasts, capable of warding off evil. He even considered buying one to bring back, but after some thought, decided against it.
At this moment, he tossed the large green-scaled fish onto the ground, sealing it with his divine brush.
Li Yanchu sat boldly upon the chair, and began questioning the fish demon about the Dragon Palace of the Chu River.
Fang Qinglan sat by his side, listening attentively.
However, the fish demon’s knowledge was shallow, and it did not know much about the origins of the Dragon King. The Dragon Lord was fond of eating humans, often overturning passing boats and devouring those who fell into the river. The Chu River was known for its fierce winds and waves, so capsizing was a common occurrence, and so no one thought much of it.
Who would have guessed that all of it was the work of monsters?
In recent years, the Dragon King had focused on cultivation, no longer stirring up storms in the Chu River, leaving the affairs of the Dragon Palace to his crown prince.
He had three sons and one daughter. Fearing heavenly wrath and mortal resentment, they usually only dared to secretly consume humans, or bewitch villagers into offering up boys and girls as sacrifices.
