Chapter 1167: 1166: The Elf-like Adorable Girl
Chapter 1167 of "Super Combat Soldier" unveils a new twist: Chapter 1167: Chapter 1166: The Elf-like Adorable GirlYe Tianchen arrived at âPenglai Fairy Islandâ unexpectedly,... See what happens!
Chapter 1167: Chapter 1166: The Elf-like Adorable GirlYe Tianchen arrived at âPenglai Fairy Islandâ unexpectedly, a place full of mysteries and legends. This experience completely overturned his preconceptions, as he never imagined the so-called âPenglai Fairy Islandâ would not resemble the fairyland people envisioned, but instead feel like a primeval place untouched and undiscovered, holding unknown legacies and martial artists.
Upon arriving at âPenglai Fairy Island,â Ye Tianchen didnât have time to marvel at the scenery before encountering an elf-like girl. She looked exceptionally cute, especially with her beautiful big eyes, which appeared so lively, bringing a vibrant vitality that made Ye Tianchen find her quite adorable.
âSteal an egg? Forget it, Iâm not one to enjoy being a thief!â Ye Tianchen said helplessly.
âWho said anything about thieving? Weâre just taking it, not stealing!â The elf-like cute girl shook her head and answered.
âYou⌠forget it, you have fun, Iâll wander around.â Ye Tianchen shook his head as he spoke.
The elf-like girl froze for a moment upon seeing Ye Tianchen about to leave. She bit her lip hard, wanting to thrash Ye Tianchen, but lacked the strength. With a disappointed tone, she said, âNot coming with me? Well, the egg of the Eight-Armed Evil Dragon is infused with immortal energy. Getting one would not only greatly enhance our cultivation, but also erase the battle scars martial artists have enduredâŚâ
Whoosh!
âAh⌠What are you doing?â The elf-like girlâs speech was interrupted as Ye Tianchen suddenly flashed to her side, startling her into a vigilant inquiry.
âNothing, I just think since you saved my life earlier, I should chat and become friends with you!â Ye Tianchen chuckled as he replied.
The elf-like girl gave Ye Tianchen an adorable look, couldnât help but smile as she spoke, âMy name is Xiao Ling, whatâs yours?â
âYe Tianchen!â
âYe Tianchen? What kind of name is that, three words are hard to remember, not symmetrical with my two-word name. Iâll call you Little Emperor from now on!â the girl named Xiao Ling adorably suggested.
Black lines appeared around Ye Tianchenâs head. Truthfully, it was his first time encountering such a cute and elf-like girl, genuinely feeling lively rather than pretentious or artificial, which made Ye Tianchen say, âYou can call me Little Sky, just donât add âEmperorâ after it, sounds like Iâm your sonâŚâ
âHaha, Iâll call you Little Emperor then, whatâs wrong with being my sonâŚâ Xiao Ling stuck her tongue out at Ye Tianchen, playfully like a ghost.
âYouâre not older than me, yet you want me to be your son, arenât you embarrassed?â Ye Tianchen replied irritably.
âNope, letâs go, Little Emperor, come with me to see the Eight-Armed Evil DragonâŚâ
After speaking, Xiao Ling turned into a beam of light like an elf and darted away swiftly, not worrying whether Ye Tianchen would follow. Ye Tianchen shook his head, finding the self-assured elf-like girl amusing, wondering about her origins as she was quite cute and nonsensical.
After pondering, Ye Tianchen also performed the âDivine Movement Skill,â quickly following, as he too wanted to see the âEight-Armed Evil Dragonâ Xiao Ling spoke of. What kind of creature is it, with eggs containing immortal energy and even the ability to heal battle scars, truly astonishing.
Itâs known among martial artists that during cultivation or facing the Heavenly Punishment Thunder Tribulation, even if overcoming it successfully, some scars will remain within the body, known as âbattle scars.â Generally, these scars accompany oneâs entire life, never disappearing. The direct harm of battle scars is the inability to break through Cultivation Realm and potentially facing doom due to scar worsening, resulting in oneâs demise, an expression of Heavenâs intolerance toward martial artists.
In this world, medicines capable of healing battle scars are scarce. Even some immortal elixirs donât guarantee such effects, merely extending lifespan. To remove battle scars is nearly impossible, so finding such a medicine would drive martial artists worldwide into a frenzy.
Ye Tianchen follows Xiao Ling to witness the âEight-Armed Evil Dragonâ as he connects it to the two different energy types within his body, which are also unusual battle scars. If the dragonâs egg has such miraculous healing powers, perhaps it could resolve his internal energy conflict. If attainable, it would mean unrestricted cultivation for Ye Tianchen, an issue tied to his life and martial fate.
After darting along for a few kilometers, they arrived in the blink of an eye. Ye Tianchen stopped, noticing Xiao Ling sneaking around like a little thief, slowly approaching a large boulder. Once close to it, she held her breath and peeked behind the rock, then immediately leaned against it, panting heavily as if astonished and afraid of being discovered.
Whoosh!
Ye Tianchen instantly used a âTeleportationâ Martial Arts Divine Skill, landing beside Xiao Ling. He was curious to see what the âEight-Armed Evil Dragonâ behind the boulder looked like. But before he could peer out, Xiao Ling pulled him back in. Leaning behind the rock, Xiao Ling carefully whispered, âBe cautious. If weâre discovered, we wonât survive!â
âThat powerful? Iâm curious to see what this Eight-Armed Evil Dragon looks like,â Ye Tianchen said, surprised.
âHold on, carefully, slowly sneak a peekâŚâ Xiao Ling said, looking very cautious.
Ye Tianchen nodded, helpless against this quirky girl. If he didnât follow her lead, he wasnât sure what kind of trouble she might cause.
After waiting a while, Ye Tianchen slowly poked his head out. When he looked behind the boulder, he frowned. There, around a thousand meters away, was a caveânothing more than a hole in the rock, not very deep. Inside, a âfour-legged snake,â looking much like a lizard, was coiled up, about the size of a personâs arm. Beneath it lay an egg, roughly the size of a fist, not white like typical eggs, but transparent, clearly showing a coiled little creature inside.
âThis is the Eight-Armed Evil Dragon, isnât it adorable!â Xiao Ling also poked her head out, leaning on the rock with a smile.
âAdorable? I thought it was a fierce beast, with such a majestic name⌠and itâs just like this,â Ye Tianchen said, a bit disappointed.
Xiao Ling gave Ye Tianchen a disdainful look, saying, âYou must be ignorant. This is just a mini version of the Eight-Armed Evil Dragon. Do you even know what it is?â
âI donât know,â Ye Tianchen said, speechless.
âThe Eight-Armed Evil Dragon is the first creature born in this Martial Arts World, the first lifeform, even older than the Ancient Alien Race!â Xiao Ling whispered.
âYouâre exaggerating, right? After these Martial Arts Worlds were developed, the Ancient Alien Race was the first to emerge. The Eight-Armed Evil Dragon is at most one of the Ancient Alien Race; how could it predate them?â Ye Tianchen said in disbelief.
âYouâre really naive. Let me tell you, this Martial Arts World existed long ago, just untouched, in desolation. When Great Divine Ability Users broke through, life and life force were introduced, creating the Ancient Alien Race. But before that, the Eight-Armed Evil Dragon were already living here. Theyâre the only species to arise on their own!â Xiao Ling said like a teacher imparting knowledge.
âA species arising on its own? So the other species fell from the sky and werenât born on their own?â Ye Tianchen asked, puzzled.
âI donât know that. How should I know everything!â Xiao Ling shook her head.
Ye Tianchen was truly speechless, unsure what to say. This girl called Xiao Ling seemed to want the Eight-Armed Evil Dragon egg but perhaps desired to treat the dragon as a pet more. If she could capture and raise one, Ye Tianchen believed this whimsical and cute girl surely would.
âHow can we get the Eight-Armed Evil Dragonâs egg?â Ye Tianchen pondered and asked.
Eyeing Ye Tianchen, Xiao Ling smiled mischievously, saying, âNowâs the time for your gratitude. I saved your life earlier, so you owe me, donât you?â
âWhat? You want me toâŚâ Ye Tianchen was uneasy in response to Xiao Lingâs mischievous smile, imagining black lines dancing around his head, wanting to run away from this quirky yet adorable girl immediately!
