The Heroes of Gulong: Great Chefs from Past to Present

Chapter 525: Receiving a Reward for Nothing
Xiao Shiyilang looked at the mountains and forests in the distance. Under the starlight, his eyes became a little serious.

Li Chaofeng and Bai Yujing entered the Xiaoyao Cave in the early morning.

But until late at night, the two had not come out.

Li Chaofeng and Xiao Shiyilang had a fight, and although there was no winner, it was because Li Chaofeng had no intention of hurting anyone.

Bai Yujing's swordsmanship is extremely precise and can defeat Xiao Shiyilang.

No matter how mysterious the Xiaoyao Cave is, it is impossible to trap Li Chaofeng to death.

If the two of them cannot escape from Xiaoyao Cave even if they join forces, the threat posed by Xiaoyao Hou would be unimaginable.

Feng Siniang sat on the tree bored, swinging her legs and asking curiously.

"Shiyilang, who do you think is more powerful, the Sky Dragon King or Xiaoyao Hou?"

Xiao Shiyilang leaned against a big tree, looking at the dark forest, and answered calmly.

"I don't know, but I know that both of them are better than me."

When Feng Siniang heard Xiao Shiyilang's answer, there was a hint of loneliness in her eyes.

"Since they are all stronger than you, what are we waiting for? Are we going to collect Xiaoyao Hou's body?"

Xiao Shiyilang was very strong, so strong that he robbed government silver to help the people. The government knew he had robbed it, but they couldn't do anything to him.

In the cave not far away, there are three people who are stronger than Xiao Shiyilang.

This is Jianghu.

There is always someone better than you, and there is always someone better than you.

Xiao Shiyilang leaned against the tree, his eyes full of uncertainty, but he still answered.

"Waiting for the results."

Xiao Shiyilang saw clearly that Li Chaofeng and Bai Yujing were not of the same kind, and they kept a distance from each other while walking.

That is the distance within which one party suddenly attacks and the other party can react.

Feng Siniang: "What's the important result? We might as well go grab the deer-cutting knife instead."

Xiao Shiyilang narrowed his eyes, thought for a while, and said lightly.

"The result is very important. If Li Chaofeng is trapped, at least the Shenlong Gang will know who the enemy is."

Xiao Shiyilang stopped talking abruptly, and looked intently at the forest ahead.

He heard the wind.

As a figure flew out of the woods, Xiao Shiyilang felt a little relieved.

It’s Li Chaofeng.

Li Chaofeng's face was always cold, and the goose-feather knife in his hand was replaced with a deer-cutting knife.

But Xiao Shiyilang knew that Li Chaofeng, whose hands were stained with blood, had never killed an innocent person.

Seeing Li Chaofeng walking towards him, Xiao Shiyilang stood up and asked with a smile.

"Has the Dragon King met Xiaoyao Hou?"

He glanced at Xiao Shiyilang, then at Feng Siniang who had a nervous look on her face, and reminded her in a cold voice.

"The deal is done, you should leave."

Xiao Shiyilang paused and sounded surprised.

"Hou Xiaoyao is behind?"

Li Chaofeng: "No, he's dead."

Xiao Shiyilang was a little surprised to hear that Xiaoyao Hou was dead.

He and Xiaoyao Hou were both in Shanxi. Although they had never officially fought each other, he was well aware of the incredible martial arts of Xiaoyao Hou.

He is no match for Xiaoyao Hou.

And this strong man, whom even he did not dare to face head-on, died in his own nest in just half a day.

This is the world, there is never absolute safety.

The deal between Li Chaofeng and Feng Siniang was just to let her lead the way to see Xiaoyao Hou, but there was no mention of saving people.

Xiao Shiyilang and Li Chaofeng were not close enough to the point where they could talk about anything.

Therefore, Xiao Shiyilang could only guess as to Li Chaofeng's purpose in looking for Xiaoyao Hou.

But Xiaoyao Hou is dead, and they have to leave
Xiao Shiyilang narrowed his eyes and said, "Xiaoyao Hou is dead, where is Bai Yujing?"

When Li Chaofeng heard Xiao Shiyilang asking about Bai Yujing, he closed his eyes slightly and spoke calmly.

"He'll be here soon."

After saying this, Li Chaofeng looked at Xiao Shiyilang with cold eyes.

"In Xiaoyao Cave, there are two masters, Mu Dao Ren and Dabei Zen Master, and the great thief Xiao Shiyilang. Do you want to meet them?"

Zen Master Dabei and Taoist Mu are both top masters.

The martial arts of the world come from Shaolin, and the martial arts of the Great Compassion Zen Master have never been described, but Li Chaofeng does not want to stay with the Great Compassion Zen Master.
Now that Li Chaofeng had raised his knife, how could he possibly put it down?

Once the two parties start communicating, they are bound to have different opinions. It is better to leave directly to avoid trouble.

Marquis Xiaoyao is dead, and the young master seems to have lost his fighting spirit.

With the joint efforts of Zen Master Dabei and Taoist Mu, as well as the support of Hu Tiehua and Lu Xiaofeng, there was no point in Li Chaofeng staying inside.

After Li Chaofeng left, the others naturally had to deal with the matters of Xiaoyao Cave, but Bai Yujing followed him out.

Li Chaofeng narrowed his eyes. What he knew about Bai Yujing was, first, rumors in the martial arts world, and second, the "Sword of Immortality".

According to rumors in the martial arts world, Bai Yujing's whereabouts are elusive. No one knows where he came from, nor does anyone know when he will disappear from the martial arts world.

But whenever he appears in the world, he always has a carefree and contented look.

In addition, he has been famous for his sword-fairy poems and is rumored to be the otherworldly sword-fairy in Baiyujing.

After this period of contact, Li Chaofeng became clear about one thing.

Bai Yujing cannot be the youngest of Hongqi. The youngest of Hongqi cannot mobilize the secret agents of Qinglong Society to investigate something that will not benefit Qinglong Society at all.

What is Bai Yujing's purpose?
Bai Yujing came when he was summoned and left when he was dismissed.

Li Chaofeng never made any promises, but Bai Yujing was happy to accept it.

He did whatever Li Chaofeng said and never thought of refusing.

Even if he was given a mission from Boss Qinglong, it would still be too servile.

Showing courtesy for nothing is either cheating or stealing.

Li Chaofeng left, not only because he didn't want to chat with Master Dabei, but also because he wanted to thank Bai Yujing for saving his life.

The elite disciples of the nine major sects disappeared, and the entire martial arts world was in turmoil.

Whoever can rescue the nine major sects at this time will naturally gain great prestige.

The Sky Dragon, Shaolin and Wudang may not want to thank him, but Bai Yujing's identity is very clean and can be publicized.

The Qinglong Association will benefit, and Li Chaofeng will repay the favor.

Both parties said goodbye and went their separate ways.

But the other party ran directly out of Xiaoyao Cave.

With the speed of the two men's actions, Master Dabei and Taoist Mu were probably stunned.

Fortunately, Lu Xiaofeng knew a lot of things, enough for everyone to understand the ins and outs of the matter.

When Xiao Shiyilang heard that Master Dabei and Mu Daoren were in Xiaoyao Cave, he was also stunned.

But Li Chaofeng didn't want to explain and nodded in agreement.

Xiao Shiyilang's head was full of stars. He was in the wilderness, and Li Chaofeng was in a state where he could leave whenever he wanted.

As the two walked away, Bai Yujing flew out of the forest on the branches.

Seeing Li Chaofeng waiting, he was immediately surprised and complained at the same time.

"Why didn't the Dragon King say goodbye when he left? It's so easy for people to chase him."

Li Chaofeng narrowed his eyes and looked at Bai Yujing who was smiling, and replied with sarcasm.

"Li has a bad reputation, and Master Dabei is a Shaolin monk. If we don't agree, we have to leave."

"But you are Baiyujing, and the Great Compassion Zen Master won't do anything to you, so why don't you stay?"

Facing Li Chaofeng's self-mockery, Bai Yujing smiled and shrugged in response.

"To be honest with you, Dragon King, I really hate monks."

Li Chaofeng looked at Bai Yujing's smiling face and did not ask Bai Yujing why she hated monks, but reminded her in a serious tone.

"The disappearance of masters from nine major sects shocked the martial arts world. Don't you understand how great the benefit of saving a life is?"

Bai Yujing scratched his head: "This trip is only to help the Dragon King. Bai Yujing has never had the intention to save people, so how can I say that I am grateful to him."

Bai Yujing spoke in a carefree manner, as if he really didn't want to compete for the credit.

Li Chaofeng reminded coldly.

"You have worked so hard for the Azure Dragon Society, don't you want the Azure Dragon Society to be on good terms with the nine major sects?"

Bai Yujing heard this and just smiled without answering.

Li Chaofeng looked at Bai Yujing's expression and stopped beating around the bush and asked directly.

"What reward would Qing Long want in exchange for helping me?"

Bai Yujing remained silent when he heard the question.

What does he want?
He wants to seize the Shenlong Gang's ability to transmit messages over thousands of miles, making the Qinglong Gang even more powerful?
He wanted the Qinglong Society and the Shenlong Gang to form an offensive and defensive alliance to jointly deter the lawless heroes in the martial arts world?
Or... Looking at Li Chaofeng's vigilant face, Bai Yujing suddenly smiled and said something shocking.

"Li Chaofeng, do you want to be the boss of Qinglong?"

"The real Qinglong boss."
