Return to the City: The Strongest King-Chapter 1752 - 1690: Preparing to Activate the Formation (Part 2)

Capítulo 1752: Chapter 1690: Preparing to Activate the Formation (Part 2)

Song Xiaodong opened his mouth, then awkwardly said, “Why do I feel like I’ve done something unforgivable?”

Shen Dongyang glared and said, “What do you think? You took my precious daughter, that’s an unforgivable crime to me.”

“What are you two talking about, with all this glaring?” Sun Dongxiang came out, saw Shen Dongyang’s expression, and immediately frowned.

Shen Dongyang quickly laughed and said, “This brat has improved his chess skills, always suppressing me, I’m not happy about it.”

Sun Dongxiang glared and said, “You old man, why so serious about chess? I thought something big happened. Little Song, don’t be like your uncle; he’s got issues.”

Song Xiaodong chuckled and said, “I won’t, I won’t.”

After Sun Dongxiang went into the kitchen, Shen Dongyang laughed and said, “No more chess, let’s prepare for dinner and have a couple of drinks today.”

Song Xiaodong quickly agreed. From today, it seemed Shen Dongyang had entrusted the responsibility of taking care of his daughter to Song Xiaodong.

Chapter 1691

In the following days, Song Xiaodong, Feng Kexin, Qiao Yunxi, and Qi Lanqin were busy studying the dual cultivation.

During this period, under Song Xiaodong’s generous cultivation, they consumed a lot of elixirs, which gave them a certain foundation of True Qi.

Now, with the support of both the Dragon Gate and the Su Family, especially the Dragon Gate, Song Xiaodong obtained a lot of good medicinal materials, making it not too difficult to make these medicines.

Although they still haven’t reached the true expert level and are far from the First Meridian of True Qi, at least they have a certain foundation of True Qi now.

Song Xiaodong firmly believes that with him opening the Dragon Gate Great Array, this True Qi foundation will surely be beneficial.

Additionally, he and Sun Yiyi, Chu Xianling diligently practice the formation, as activating the great array truly might not necessarily cause any incidents; self-improvement is quite necessary.

Now, the three of them have reached Three Meridians True Qi, purely in cultivation level, they still don’t match the Elders, but Song Xiaodong has special abilities, so compared to the Elders, they’re not far behind. If you add the formation, the three of them might even have the upper hand against three top Elder-level figures.

As for Song Xiaodong breaking through to Three Meridians True Qi, only a few Elders know, even the protectors are unaware.

This is a trump card, which will provide a surprising effect in the future.

As for opening the Dragon Gate Great Array, very few people in the Dragon Gate are aware of it. If the news leaks, the Dark Night Sect surely won’t easily open the array. If the Dark Night Sect uses all their Force, with the current strength of the Dragon Gate, there won’t be any chance.

Now, Song Xiaodong can only prepare in secret and wait for Qingluan’s news.

Although there are means of communication like phones, Qingluan and Song Xiaodong have never contacted each other because even a small mistake now could result in the worst outcome. Both must be extremely cautious.

Half a month later, Song Xiaodong finally received news from Qingluan that three days later, Qingluan could come over to open the Dragon Gate Great Array together.

Song Xiaodong was overjoyed and went to Dragon Gate Island immediately.

During this half month, Song Xiaodong wasn’t in Minghe but had gone directly to a small neighboring country near Dragon Gate Island, hiding his identity and staying there.

His disappearance was something the Dark Night Sect couldn’t judge his actions from; this had to be prepared in advance, otherwise going to Dragon Gate Island at the last moment would easily reveal his whereabouts.

This time, Song Xiaodong brought a slightly larger group, Feng Kexin, Qi Lanqin, and Qiao Yunxi, these princesses, definitely couldn’t be missing any of them.

Sun Yiyi and Chu Xianling, these two major experts, working harmoniously with Song Xiaodong, were also necessary to follow.

As for the Elders, only Lin Feng and Su Lie came along. Su Lie is now the top expert of Dragon Gate, improving safety, and Lin Feng is better at overseeing the big picture.

As for the other Elders, they could only distract the Dark Night Sect’s attention.

This group, as before, secretly snuck onto the island, without alerting the Dark Night Sect’s spies here, to avoid startling the enemy.

But once Song Xiaodong opens the Dragon Gate Great Array, that would be the death sentence for those people; before the Dragon Gate, how could the Dark Night Sect be allowed to exist?

Feng Kexin, Qi Lanqin, Qiao Yunxi were astonished upon seeing this thick fog formation, even though Song Xiaodong had explained it to them beforehand, seeing it in person was genuinely shocking.

Song Xiaodong said, “Try touching this fog with your hands, and then follow what I’ve taught you to see if you can make something of it.”

Song Xiaodong had already shared his previous experiences here with the three of them.

At this moment, the three of them immediately followed what they’d learned, extending both hands into the fog.

“It seems to really have a reaction.” Feng Kexin was the first to exclaim.

Then Qi Lanqin and Qiao Yunxi nodded in agreement.

Lin Feng and Su Lie exchanged a look and couldn’t help but smile wryly; with their cultivation levels and being essential figures in the Dragon Gate, they did not have this opportunity.

“Then keep trying, see how much you can gain.”

After Song Xiaodong finished speaking, he glanced at Su Lie and Lin Feng, smiling slightly, and said, “Elders, I think this might be to maintain the uniqueness of the formation, so it requires bloodline requirements, but this energy in the future, I believe, can also be used. Once I find a way, I will open it to important figures in the Dragon Gate.”

“Thank you, Young Sect Master!” Su Lie and Lin Feng’s faces showed delight, but Lin Feng shook his head, saying, “The previous Sect Leader wasn’t small-minded either; if there was a method to let us share, I’m sure he wouldn’t have kept it from us. So it’s probably related to the bloodline of the Dragon Gate. Watching the Young Sect Master getting stronger is already gratifying.”

Song Xiaodong said, “No matter what the previous Sect Leader did, I believe that since we can use the energy within this formation, others must also be able to use it somehow. We just haven’t found the method yet.”

Whether Song Xiaodong can do it or not, his willingness moves Su Lie and Lin Feng.

After instructing the two, Song Xiaodong also came to the edge of the fog, extending his hand into the fog.

Now with the three princesses, he wanted to see if he could receive some hints.

However, besides the sense of goodwill and intimacy he felt from the fog, there were no other prompts.

That means if Qingluan doesn’t come, the total of five people won’t be enough to find the method to enter the Dragon Gate Great Array.

After a while, Feng Kexin let go of her hand and said to Song Xiaodong, “Bro, we haven’t received any hints. The Elders said we need to remain whole before doing this, so does it mean we need to… you know… and then we can open the Dragon Gate Great Array together?”

Song Xiaodong said, “It’s really uncertain, but it’s not impossible.”

Feng Kexin giggled and gave Song Xiaodong a flirtatious glance, saying, “That’s interesting.”

Qi Lanqin covered her mouth with a laugh, saying, “I think you’re just eager to be with Bro.”

Feng Kexin haughtily raised her chin, unabashedly saying, “Yes, I’m eager, don’t tell me you’re not?”

Qi Lanqin blushed and pouted, saying, “I…”

Feng Kexin immediately interrupted Qi Lanqin, “No lying!”
