The Rebirth of the Cultivation Leader Qin Zhao as a Celebrity
Chapter 89 - 86: The Land of Slumber; Tengshe’s Retribution

Chapter 89: Chapter 86: The Land of Slumber; Tengshe’s Retribution

Huo Xun didn’t think she was joking and asked, "What do you think is going on?"

"Anything else strange happened?"

Just as Qin Zhao had asked, a police officer said, "Yes, the construction foreman dreamt of a child before starting work, who had dragon horns on his head and was wearing an ancient black robe.

The child told him not to dig, saying that he was in seclusion down there, about to cultivate into a dragon. If his cultivation was disturbed, the consequences would be severe."

"A dragon? My goodness, isn’t that something from legends?"

"Are there really dragons in this world?"

"Anyway, this is too evil, doesn’t seem like the work of a human."

The police officer’s words immediately set off a flurry of discussion among the other officers.

Qin Zhao’s face showed a thoughtful expression, "Bring that foreman over, I’ll ask him."

"You go bring him here."

Huo Xun commanded, and the officer hurriedly went to do so.

Soon, the construction foreman, looking haggard, walked over.

"You said you dreamt of a child? Have you dreamt about him again since?"

The foreman shook his head, "No, but I’ve been having nightmares every day. Every time I close my eyes, I feel like I’ve fallen into a snake pit, with lots of snakes burrowing into my body."

Speaking of the dream, the foreman’s face turned deathly pale.

"After he warned you that day, did you still continue to work?"

"Yes, I didn’t take it seriously."

The foreman was full of regret, "I think there’s a Snake Demon beneath us, he is not any dragon!

His eyes were red, and his dragon horns were black, looking very evil!"

Huo Xun’s expression turned odd, and he couldn’t help but look towards Qin Zhao.

"Could there really be a Snake Demon down there?"

Qin Zhao didn’t answer but instead said to the foreman, "Have you encountered any other strange incidents? If it is a Snake Demon about to ascend into a dragon, he wouldn’t commit such slaughter.

Unless you did something that angered him."

Cultivation places great importance on cause and effect, and for a Snake Demon on the verge of Ascension, committing slaughter would be detrimental to Ascension.

The foreman looked at Qin Zhao, his face showing a terror-stricken expression.

"Last night while we were rushing the work, the excavator dug up a very large piece of snake skin."

"..."

The cultivation of demon beasts is different from humans; some demon beasts fall into a deep sleep while cultivating, so they need to find a safe place to hide.

If these people with their excavators dug up and hurt the snake, the consequences would be extremely dire.

"He already warned you, why did you continue to work?"

The foreman gave a bitter smile, "Who would think such a dream was real? There’s too much pressure from above; if I don’t work, I don’t make money. I have a child in college, I need to earn money!"

Boom, boom.

He had just finished speaking when a massive noise came from not far away.

A giant crane tower suddenly tipped over, crashing towards the ground.

"Get out! Everyone move away!"

Huo Xun’s face instantly changed, and he grabbed a megaphone to yell out to the crowd.

The spot where the crane tower was smashing down was precisely where the police and workers were most concentrated.

People’s faces changed drastically, and they panickedly scattered, as a giant shadow loomed over them.

Although Huo Xun provided a timely warning, still two people were a step too slow, about to be crushed by the crane tower.

Qin Zhao quickly rushed over, throwing out an immobilization charm, momentarily freezing the crane tower.

But the crane tower was too massive and heavy, it only stopped for a few seconds, and Qin Zhao used a spell to maintain it for a while, barely managing to hold on for a few minutes.

Huo Xun could vaguely see a faint glow above the crane tower, then it eerily paused in mid-air, astonishingly suspended for several minutes, allowing those two people to escape.

With a bang.

The crane tower crashed down, dust billowing.

Fortunately, there were no casualties.

"Qin Zhao, are you alright?"

Huo Xun turned his head to look at Qin Zhao and saw her face was pale.

It was a sign of overuse of Spiritual Power, but it wasn’t anything serious.

Qin Zhao shook her head, "I’ve found him."

"What?"

Huo Xun was puzzled for a moment, then realized Qin Zhao had disappeared.

Qin Zhao had moved to the back of the crane tower, where on the wheel lay a black snake with crimson eyes, glaring hatefully at the humans who had run away.

But calling it a snake wasn’t quite accurate.

Because it had two front claws, and on its head were Dragon Horns.

Qin Zhao instantly recognized its identity, the Tengshe on the brink of Ascension!

This Tengshe must have been disturbed during its cultivation, which is why it woke up.

Moreover, its aura was much weaker, nowhere near as terrifying as when Qin Zhao first encountered it, where she could feel its horror even through the ground.

"You saved them? Seeking death!"

Tengshe turned its head to see Qin Zhao, its eyes immediately filled with malevolence.

Qin Zhao crossed her arms, looking at him leisurely, "You probably can’t kill me now, right? Not only can’t you kill me, but you’ll need to cultivate for a few hundred more years to ascend."

"Arrghh, it’s all those stupid humans’ fault, I must kill them all!"

Tengshe began to twist violently, its tone filled with desperation.

Then, with a splash.

Before Qin Zhao’s eyes fell a little milk baby, cute as a button, with baby fat and beautiful eyes like rubies, and atop its head was a Dragon Horn.

But there was only one Dragon Horn; the other was broken off halfway.

The little milk baby’s body was brewing a terrifying aura.

Dark clouds began to gather in the sky, as if it were the end of the world.

He stared resentfully at Qin Zhao, but suddenly noticed she had Spiritual Power.

The little milk baby tilted its head, a calculating look appearing in its eyes.

"Hey, do you want to protect those people?"

Tengshe said to Qin Zhao in a fierce tone.

Qin Zhao wasn’t afraid of him because his cultivation had dropped dramatically; right now, he was just a paper tiger.

"Yes, what about it?"

"It’s not like I want to kill them for no reason, they disturbed my cultivation first. Not only did they break off my tail, forcing me only to shed my skin and escape, but they also broke my Dragon Horn. It hurt so much!"

Tengshe turned around and pouted a little buttocks.

It was wearing an ancient black robe with a snake tail sticking out, but it was broken off.

This pitiful little posture was inexplicably cute.

Tengshe turned back, with a serious little face, addressing Qin Zhao, "This lord has noticed that you have excellent Talent, but there’s too much turbid qi in your body, which can easily give rise to a Heart Demon, not good for promotion.

If you help this lord retrieve the Dragon Horn, this lord can gradually restore cultivation and then ascend to become a dragon.

The powerful Dragon Breath of the Dragon Clan can cleanse the impurities in your body, allowing you trouble-free cultivation!"

He tilted his chin up as if to say, isn’t that impressive? So come work for this lord!

Because of this incident, Tengshe had already killed two people; he knew that killing more would not solve the problem but would only burden him with more killing karma, which would be detrimental to his cultivation.

Rather than that, why not coax this human into helping him.

Qin Zhao looked at him strangely for a while; was this broken snake trying to lure her with grand promises?

"Your current cultivation is even worse than the Golden Core Stage. Even if I help you find the Dragon Horn, who knows when you’ll be able to ascend. Actually, I have a better idea."

Tengshe asked her curiously, "What idea?"
