Chapter: Chapter 422
This is going up against an entire race, just thinking about it shows how difficult it is.
“It’s okay, you can consider it your long-term goal, there’s nothing to worry about. For now, let’s make defeating Gangqiang your first small goal,” Leticia said, implying it wasn’t a big problem, and one could approach their goals step by step.
A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step. First, set a big goal and then slowly work towards it. As long as she continues to work hard like this, with Linglong’s talent, Leticia believed she would definitely become a true dragon capable of stirring up winds and clouds.
“Your talent is very good, so good that I’m a little envious,” Leticia said, speaking from her conscience, encouraging Miss Linglong.
This girl’s talent is indeed good, but compared to Leticia, the first-generation cheat, she was still inferior.
But Linglong didn’t know this, she thought Leticia was telling the truth.
“Am I really that amazing?” Linglong blinked her eyes and asked a little incredulously.
“Of course, among the people I know, you can at least rank in the top five,” Leticia began counting geniuses on her fingers. “And among them, there are only two whose talent is clearly stronger than yours. One is the current empress of the demon race. Her talent can be called brilliant throughout history, and she is the most talented person I have ever seen.”
“And the other is that Sword Saint of the human race. However, her success is truly puzzling. I think she might have relied on some external force to possess such strength. But the fact is here, and I have to admit that she is also an unparalleled genius.”
“And you, Miss Linglong of the beast race, your talent in my eyes is second only to these two.”
My talent is only inferior to those two legendary figures? Linglong’s face was full of shock. What Leticia said was so serious that she couldn’t doubt Leticia in such a state.
Her intuition told her that everything this black-haired girl said was true.
“Am I really that amazing?” But she still didn’t quite believe it.
Anyone wouldn’t believe such a thing. She was just a special beastman who didn’t have much ability and only wanted to live a life of苟且偷生 (living on borrowed time/scraping by). Now, a girl who looked even younger than her suddenly appeared and told her that she was actually a super genius, only slightly inferior to those two legendary figures.
Who would believe it!
Anyway, Linglong didn’t dare to believe it, but the facts were right here. Leticia didn’t seem to be lying at all.
“The power contained within you makes even me tremble. Even without systematic training, you can still possess your current combat strength, which already indicates something,” Leticia said lightly. “Don’t wear that expression like you’ve seen a ghost. Anyone can see that you haven’t received systematic training.”
Miss Immobile immediately agreed and nodded, “That’s right, that’s right, anyone can see it.”
Actually, Miss Bai didn’t see it at all. She just felt that it was amazing for Linglong to possess this strength at her age.
Of course, she was still no match for her, the Sword Saint. When she was Linglong’s age, she was invincible and had defeated everyone. The number of heads she took wasn’t large, but each one was of extremely high value.
“When I was young, my father and mother and I were always hiding from those claws and teeth. When I was a teenager, my father sent me here, saying that I could grow well here. Come to think of it, I really haven’t trained properly,” Linglong’s face also showed a hint of sadness, thinking that her childhood was not very comfortable.
And by looking at her expression, it’s likely that her parents have also met their demise.
“Later, I arrived at the Bone Wing Tribe and used some methods to gain their trust. After that, I had even less time for cultivation.”
“I understand, I understand. I have experience in this area. I’ll write a schedule for you later, and I guarantee that your days will be super fulfilling,” Leticia said with a grin.
Back then, she was dealing with the troublesome affairs of the demon race while studying those obscure and difficult magic spells. During the busiest period, her daily rest time was less than three hours.
The more diligent Leticia was during that time, the lazier she became after starting to slack off. At that time, she actually wanted to earn back the extra time she had spent.
However, looking at it now, she not only earned back that time but also received quite a bit of interest.
“Um, can I ask how fulfilling?” Linglong couldn’t help but shiver. She felt that Leticia’s expression was terrifying.
“That depends on how much time you need to spend on chores every day. I used to sleep about three hours a day, and I was awake learning the rest of the time,” Leticia said casually.
Hearing this, Linglong’s eyes widened, and then she suddenly stood up, “Excuse me!”
The Dragon race is not a diligent race, and Linglong, as a Dragon race beastman, naturally didn’t have the genes for diligence. Her life goal was to live a lazy life of sleeping twelve hours a day, and now Leticia actually wanted to exploit her like this!
No, absolutely not!
“Bai Ling, hold her down for me!” Leticia saw Linglong trying to escape and immediately called out to Miss Bai to hold Linglong back.
She could have done it herself, but that would likely make Miss Bai think of other things. To be safe, she decided to let Bai Ling do it for her.
“Don’t be so resistant, you know. If you work hard now, you can slack off better in the future. It’s a good deal!” Leticia spread her hands and counted the benefits of hard work on her fingers.
“But I think my current strength is already enough for me to swagger around here,” Linglong argued, tilting her head. She had discussed with her subordinates, and her simple-minded subordinates told her that in this barren land, the only one who could rival her as a goddess on the front lines should be the chieftain of the Gangqiang Tribe.
That chieftain might not be good in other areas, but in terms of combat power, he could definitely handle it. Even within the Great Plains, that chieftain could be considered a strong warrior.
“Superficial! You may be hard to find an opponent here now, but what if someone comes from within the Great Plains? What if the opponent is someone you can’t handle?” Leticia looked at Linglong with frustration and anger, and reprimanded her sternly, “I’m telling you, even ten moves are not needed for the elite brutes of the beast race to take you down!”
“Then I can run!”
“Can you run forever? You said that the entire beast race is your enemy, so where can you run to? Go to the desert to find death?”
…
Happy New Year everyone!
