The Heroes of Gulong: Great Chefs from Past to Present

Chapter 452 The world is far away
Li Chaofeng doesn't have many friends in the underworld.

Especially after becoming the Dragon King, the people around him are either subordinates or people worth spending energy to make friends with.

Those who can be called friends by Li Chaofeng are all people he met while traveling around the world.

Hu Tiehua can be regarded as Li Chaofeng's first friend in the underworld and also his best friend.

Chu Liuxiang, Ji Bingyan and Zhongyuan Yidianhong were friends he made in the desert.

Li Chaofeng still remembers the crucial sword that Zhongyuan Yidianhong stabbed at Shi Guanyin. Without that sword, it would have been difficult for Li Chaofeng to walk out of the desert alive.

Shi Guanyin committed suicide.

If she wasn't blind and just had a serious abdominal injury, she could take at least one person with her.

And that person should be Li Chaofeng, who dealt the fatal blow to Shi Guanyin.

Although after that war, Zhongyuan Yidianhong never considered himself Li Chaofeng's benefactor, and he didn't even say a few words to him.

But Li Chaofeng kept a little bit of Zhongyuan in his heart.

However, at that time, Zhongyuan Yidianhong had both arms intact, and he followed Qu Wurong like a dog. Even if Li Chaofeng wanted to be friends with him, there was no chance.

Without denying Zhongyuan Yidianhong's identity as a friend, Li Chaofeng looked at Su Rongrong, thought for a long time, and asked.

"He is in Changbai Mountain?"

Su Rongrong nodded: "Of course."

Li Chaofeng looked at Su Rongrong and asked with a stern face.

"When did you know that Chu Liuxiang and I would come to Shenshui Palace?"

Su Rongrong smiled: "I can only tell the Dragon King that Queen Yin Ji found out after me."

Li Chaofeng narrowed his eyes: "It seems you have been preparing for a long time?"

Su Rongrong smiled: "Not too long, just a few years."

Li Chaofeng sighed: "So you deliberately didn't inform the Divine Water Palace that Wuhua was the real culprit who stole the Tianyi Divine Water?"

Su Rongrong tilted her head jokingly: "It's not intentional."

"Shenshui Palace went to the Chu family to question them only after Chu Liuxiang disappeared, and I just got the news in advance, so I hid."

Li Chaofeng narrowed his eyes and thought. Su Rongrong's aunt was a disciple of Shenshui Palace, and she had a connection with Shenshui Palace.

Li Hongxiu and Song Tianer probably left the Chu family in disappointment when they heard the news that Chu Liuxiang had gone into seclusion in the Mayi Sect.

Su Rongrong was the only one who stayed there, waiting for Chu Liuxiang to return.

As Li Chaofeng was lost in thought, Su Rongrong waited for a while, then turned to look in the direction where Chu Liuxiang was going away, and asked with a smile.

"Isn't it that a little red in the Central Plains who once shared life and death with the Dragon King is not worth your trip?"

Li Chaofeng smiled and said, "Since it is an old friend who invites me, of course I will not refuse."
-
Chu Liuxiang has friends all over the world, and he also has many friends in the Kanto area.

The road ahead is long, and there are countless close friends whom you only see once after decades of separation.

Chu Liuxiang was taken to Changbai Mountain by the Shenshui Palace's boat, and the Shenshui Palace did not send a boat to take him back, so he naturally could not turn away his friends from the martial arts world.

On the contrary, Li Chaofeng had few friends in the martial arts world and had countless responsibilities, so he could only rely on his lightness skills to rush straight back to the Yangtze River.

However, there was something teasing in Li Chaofeng's parting look, which made Chu Liuxiang quite concerned.

After all, Li Chaofeng's five senses are almost as good as those of gods and demons, so he can naturally see and hear more than Chu Liuxiang.

After separating from Li Chaofeng, Chu Liuxiang randomly chose a direction and headed towards somewhere, but his attention was always focused on the surrounding jungle.

Li Chaofeng discovered the problem but did not tell him directly.

This means that the matter is not very dangerous, but it is closely related to him.

But after thinking about it, Chu Liuxiang still couldn't figure out what on earth Li Chaofeng would take the initiative to avoid and yet be so confident that he could be safe and sound?
Although the Shenshui Palace is not far from here, there are countless dangers between the white mountains and black waters.

Chu Liuxiang is a nice person with a nice personality and even better martial arts skills.

But he had a big flaw, which made Ji Bingyan extremely disgusted, but she was unable to change it.

That's his curiosity.

Curiosity killed the cat, and it can also kill Chu Liuxiang.

Halfway through the journey, a carriage was seen coming from afar on the road ahead.

A thin man with two fingers missing was sitting in the front of the carriage. When he saw Chu Liuxiang from afar, he stopped the carriage and greeted him with a big laugh.

"General Chu Xiang, I haven't seen you for many years. I hope you are well." Chu Liuxiang took a closer look and quickly recognized the man's identity.

Black Monkey, Sun Kong.

Chu Liuxiang and Sun Kong had fought three times and he won every time. When he saw an acquaintance, Chu Liuxiang was surprised.

"Sun Wukong, it's you."

Back then, Sun Kong had two fingers cut off by Li Chaofeng, and most of his Iron Claw skills were lost. After many twists and turns, he returned to Changbai Mountain to make a living.

Seeing that Chu Liuxiang had not forgotten him, Sun Kong also laughed heartily.

"Who else could it be but me? Marshal Xiang is in Kanto, so I have to play the role of a good host."

Chu Liuxiang's eyes moved slightly. Although Sun Kong was familiar with him, he was not a good person.

If Chu Liuxiang didn't dislike killing people, he wouldn't have let him go three times.

But at this time, Sun Kong's bandit spirit had completely disappeared, and he invited Chu Liuxiang like an old friend, and Chu Liuxiang nodded in response.

"Since it is an old friend who invites me, I will obey your order."

When Sun Kong heard the word "old friend", his face was full of pride. After ten years of poverty, Chu Liuxiang still called him a friend. How could he not be proud?

As the curtain door of the carriage was opened, Sun Kong also smiled proudly.

"Please get in the car, Xiang Shuai."

Chu Liuxiang looked at the carriage through the door curtain with some surprise in his eyes.

Because Sun Kong was dressed very simply, but the scene in the car was luxurious.

The floor was covered with silk and satin, the chairs were cushioned with satin, and there was a full array of fine wine and meat.

Sun Kong’s attire is more like that of a coachman than an owner.

This situation is really incongruous.

More importantly, Chu Liuxiang vaguely felt that the furnishings in the car were very consistent with his lifestyle.

Although Sun Kong and he had an old acquaintance, they were actually an enemy rather than a friend, and they did not know each other well.

Seeing Chu Liuxiang hesitate, Sun Kong laughed again.

"Xiang Shuai is so hesitant, but do you think Sun is not sincere enough?"

Chu Liuxiang realized that Sun Kong was trying to provoke him, but he just laughed and said.

"If someone dares to say that such a luxurious carriage is not sincere, then Chu must be a person who is extremely greedy."

After saying this, he did not ask where Sun Kong came from, nor did he inquire how the other party knew his whereabouts.

With light steps, Chu Liuxiang got straight into the carriage.

Seeing Chu Liuxiang getting on the carriage, Sun Kong didn't even say hello. He just lowered the door curtain and then shouted in front of the carriage.

"It's a long journey, Xiang Shuai, you better sit tight."

Hearing Sun Kong say this, Chu Liuxiang also knew that Sun Kong was not the real boss, and bowed to thank him in the car.

"Sorry to bother you, Brother Sun."

Sun Kong laughed: "Xiang Shuai, you are too polite!"

With a shout of "Gee", the carriage started moving forward. Chu Liuxiang tried to look at the scenery outside through the window.

However, he found that although the carriage had windows, they had been sealed tightly with black cloth from the outside.

Chu Liuxiang raised his eyebrows slightly, smiled bitterly, then sat on a chair padded with several layers of satin, picked up the wine jug in his right hand and started drinking.

"Good wine!"

As the wine went down his throat, Chu Liuxiang's face was filled with joy.

Holding the chopsticks in his left hand, he also started to devour the jerky on the plate.

There is wine and meat, but the road ahead is unknown.

How can it not be the underworld?

It was a pity that Chu Liuxiang didn't have the beauty by his side, which made him feel regretful.
