The Peerless Beauty Stuck With Me

Chapter 1881 - 1880: Facing Heaven

"When I was reading the ancient collections, I indeed came across this sentence. It says, 'Phoenix Fire, embodying the life essence of all creatures. Its fire is not extinguished by wind or water; its only nemesis remains Dragon Blood.'"

Only Dragon Blood?

Using a dragon to counter a phoenix?

Using strength against gentleness?

Without Wu Suowei's words, Tang Rao wouldn't have thought of this so quickly.

Using a dragon to counter a phoenix, this method might save Kao Shan Sect, save the entire Zijing City, but as for Dragon Blood, where do you find it?

"Easier said than done. It's not easy for us to see Phoenix, let alone find Dragon Blood?"

The people around Tang Rao were the first to start murmuring, and what they said wasn't unreasonable. A dragon? They had heard of them countless times, but seen one? Not even once.

It's different for Tang Rao. Tang Rao has seen things that others haven't, he's interacted with things others haven't touched. Even dragons, as rare as they are, Tang Rao not only met but interacted with this large creature.

Back then, when Tang Rao was bleeding and falling down the mountain, didn't he encounter a great dragon? At that time, Xiao Long was gravely ill, and Tang Rao was forced into treating and healing Xiao Long.

By coincidence, Xiao Long's life was indeed saved by Tang Rao, and to express gratitude, the great dragon gave Tang Rao many treasures, and promised that anything Tang Rao desired would be granted,.

Someone urged Tang Rao to make demands, and Tang Rao boldly asked for the great dragon's blood — three drops, neither too many nor too few.

Each drop of blood was painstakingly cultivated and condensed by the great dragon, unlike humans like Tang Rao, whose bodies naturally supply blood. Giving even one drop of blood diminished the great dragon's cultivation a bit, while Tang Rao's cultivation skyrocketed with the dragon's blood, never dropping since.

"How to use Dragon Blood? I have it in my body!"

Tang Rao stunned everyone with his words; none had expected Tang Rao to have Dragon Blood within him or knew how he got it.

But now, as long as there's Dragon Blood, isn't that enough?

"Just release some Dragon Blood, mix it with the firefighting water, and then use the water with Dragon Blood to extinguish the fire."

Once Wu Suowei knew Tang Rao had Dragon Blood, he hurriedly advised Tang Rao to solve the fire issue quickly, sparing everyone present from danger.

"Is it really that simple?"

Getting Dragon Blood after treating Xiao Long was merely an unintentional act, but who knew that such an unintentional act might one day save so many lives?

"That's what ancient legends say. Whether it works or not still needs to be tested to confirm."

Even if there's only a ten percent hope, Tang Rao would take out the blood to try, let alone when the success rate is higher than he imagined.

Tang Rao took out a small dagger, directly slicing toward his finger, hand raised and the knife fell, and blood from his finger trickled into the prepared water.

He didn't need much blood; such things served more as a catalyst, a little essence suffices.

The blood dripped into the water, diffusing quickly through the clear liquid. Soon, Tang Rao handed the water to the firefighters, instructing them to extinguish the fire around the large ammunition storage first, then spread outwards to create a separation zone. Once formed, even a raging fire that burns won't scare Tang Rao as it does now.

"Dad, the factory is gone, Xiao Bai's territory is gone."

Tang Xiaobai pitifully looked at Tang Rao. His land was being burned, it didn't matter much; Tang Xiaobai could always find a way to retaliate. Yet the culprit was neither ordinary nor powerful enough for father and son revenge. The hardest part? The arsonist was a Phoenix.

That's something that neither Tang Rao nor Tang Xiaobai could handle. Based on Wu Suowei's words, this Phoenix might be someone's destructive weapon kept close by, and now is a perfect time for them to release it for retribution.

Those able to afford a Phoenix are unlikely more than three people within Tang Rao's knowledge, and amongst those three, only one holds a grudge against Tang Rao. But as for who this person is, Tang Rao hesitates to name them yet.

Alright, it seems someone couldn't even wait until Tang Rao regained his memories before coming to cause trouble, as if the people within Kao Shan Sect were raised simply for jealousy?

"Boss, the fire is under control, but many places are burned and the factory might be hard to reuse."

The messenger spoke hesitantly, with wounds on his face from exploded ammunition, some deep enough to expose the bone. Despite their injuries, they were all glad to have survived, none showing discontent over their injuries.

Even carrying wounds, these people kept thinking about the factory's operations.

Kao Shan Sect is their home, a phrase Tang Rao used before relentlessly, but never expected those under him shared his sentiment. Following recent hardship, Tang Rao adjusted his prior thoughts and relieved his former concerns.

These people truly viewed this place as home, regarded everyone within Kao Shan Sect as one of their own. They possessed a sense of team loyalty, understanding just how closely personal and team dynamics interconnect.

"No worries, you guys should go tend to your injuries first. If you're short of Elixir Pills, get them from Cha Xiangzi; just say it's my arrangement."

The factory's inoperability was within Tang Rao's expectations. No matter; what's damaged can be repaired. Reconstructing even just one weapons factory counts, two is as much, and the obstacles faced previously provide valuable lessons for constructing a second, minimising mistakes in the process.

"Thanks, Boss. Don't be upset; it's all just possessions, what's most important is your health!"

"No problem, I have it under control."

Tang Rao isn't someone easily defeated. When it comes to loss, he has faced far greater losses in the past.

And following the messenger's logic, if Tang Rao were truly vulnerable, he wouldn't have reached his current standing.

"Who did you suspect?"

With an exchanged glance, Wu Suowei understood Tang Rao's unspoken query.

Wu Suowei didn't immediately respond to Tang Rao's question but raised his finger to the sky.

"And you?"

Wu Suowei questioned Tang Rao, and coincidentally, Tang Rao's thoughts mirrored Wu Suowei's as he too raised his finger skyward.

"Damn it, making your family homeless isn't enough, they're still acting!
