Chapter 865 Challenge the top!

Charizard Canyon is located between Kikyo City and Hinoki Town. Xia You has been there before, so now he naturally knows how to get there.

This time, because they learned the specific start date of the Grand Celebration, they felt that time was tight and the journey was long. Most importantly, there were other things to do after entering Chengdu, and they had to leave enough training time for Xiaoyao. There was not much time to waste on the road, so after discussing with Xiaoyao, Xia You decided to take Dragonite and get there as quickly as possible.

As soon as you ride on Dragonite, the feeling is immediately different.

As it flapped its wings and flew high, Xia You and Xiao Yao immediately left the ground.

There were white clouds and blue sky above his head, and mountains and forests below his feet. The cool air blowing on his body made Xiaoyao, who was sitting behind Xia You, lean forward subconsciously.

It can be said that compared with the previous hiking method, this method is undoubtedly rushing.

You can neither feel anything from nature nor encounter new people and things. The only advantage is that the speed is fast enough.

But then again, occasionally overlooking the sky and the earth in this way and taking in everything can broaden one's mind and give one a completely different feeling.

The towering mountains that seemed unclimbable on normal days quickly passed by them.

Flying in the sky was undoubtedly boring and tedious. Because of the cold wind, it was even difficult for the two to communicate.

Fortunately, after flying for nearly half a day, they finally arrived at the Charizard Canyon before sunset.

After going around several mountains, the familiar fire-breathing dragon-shaped mountain and the long river covered with fire-breathing dragon stone statues appeared in front of Xia You again.

Without Xia You's instructions, Dragonite lowered its altitude and went upstream along the river.

Coming back here again, Xia You didn't know what kind of mood he was in, but when he thought that his Charizard was right in front of him, he couldn't help but feel a little excited.

Behind him, because the cold wind was gone and Dragonite's speed slowed down, Xiaoyao finally had the chance to speak.

She looked around, obviously surprised by the environment.

"Is this the Charizard Canyon? It feels really majestic. Brother Xia You, who do you think erected these Charizard statues in the river? And the mountain in front that looks like a Charizard, is it artificially carved or naturally formed?"

"Then you should ask the person inside. I think she would be happy to answer your questions."

As he was speaking, Dragonite spread its wings and flew, bringing the two of them to the front gate of the mountain.

However, Dragonite did not stop, but took them through the mountain gate and landed directly in the canyon behind!

In fact, this mountain gate is only prepared for guests who arrive here for the first time or trainers who enter here by mistake. For "old acquaintances" like him, they can just go over the mountain.

Behind the mountain gate is the real location of the Charizard Canyon.

It also allowed Xiaoyao to truly see what this place looks like!

I saw nearly a hundred fire-breathing dragons scattered everywhere in the rocky mountain. Some of them were eating fruits, some were lying there to rest, and more of them were gathered in pairs and playing.

There is orange everywhere, which looks particularly eye-catching.

"So many fire-breathing dragons..."

The appearance of Dragonite naturally attracted the attention of these Charizards, and instantly all the Charizards looked over here. In fact, not only them, but also Ji Ke, the administrator in the small house not far away, noticed Xia You's arrival.

Coming out of the hut, Ji Ke brought his female Charizard named "Little Lisa" and waved to Xia You.

"You're finally here!"

Xia You was about to speak when he suddenly felt an orange shadow passing in front of him. The next second, a strong and tall fire-breathing dragon appeared beside Xia You.

Although so much time has passed, its body has changed and its temperament is slightly different, but Xia You still recognized it at a glance. This is his Charizard!

"Charizard!"

Xia You happily hugged his Charizard, and the Charizard hugged him tightly!

It's so great that one man and one Pokémon meet again!

When Charizard let go of him, Xia You took a step back and looked at his Charizard carefully from head to toe. He couldn't help but smile and said, "After not seeing you for such a long time, you've become stronger and your eyes are sharper. It seems like you've really grown a lot!"

Charizard grinned.

At this time, Ji Ke had already walked to Xia You's side.

"You came a few days later than I expected, but no matter what, it's not too late as long as you're here." She looked at Xiaoyao again and asked, "Who is this person next to you?"

Xiaoyao smiled at Ji Ke openly.

"My name is Xiaoyao, and I'm Brother Xia You's travel partner now."

Ji Ke didn't ask where Lijia, who had accompanied Xia You here, had gone. He just looked at Xia You meaningfully, obviously thinking Xiaoyao was his girlfriend.

This guy is quite playful...

The three of them exchanged a few words of greeting, and then at Ji Ke's invitation, they went into her cabin together.

The wooden floor made a creaking sound when stepping on it. Water was boiling on the fireplace in the cabin. When Xia You and Xiao Yao sat at the small table, Ji Ke made them a pot of steaming hot tea.

Xia You's Charizard and Ji Ke's Charizard also entered the room, but because of their size, they could only sit on the open space in front of the fireplace.

With just an inadvertent glance, he noticed that Ji Ke's Charizard named Little Lisa was frequently flirting with his own Charizard and teasing it with its tail, but his own Charizard just looked aloof and ignored Little Lisa.

Ok?

It seems that not only has the strength of his Charizard improved here, but it has also captured the heart of a female Charizard!

I just don’t know if Ji Ke has noticed this.

At this time, Ji Ke brought up a few plates of snacks and placed them in front of the two of them.

"Although you have arrived here today, it is too late. Why not stay here for one night and let your Charizard challenge the strongest one in the valley tomorrow morning?"

After taking a look at his Charizard and seeing it looking at him, Xia You turned around and nodded to Ji Ke.

"Then excuse me."

"It's okay." Ji Ke waved her hand. "I just bought a lot of ingredients today. I'll let you taste my cooking in a while. It will definitely make you jump for joy! Besides, it's rare to have guests here, so I can just listen to your stories about interesting experiences outside!"

Drinking tea, eating snacks and listening to the crackling of the fire, the few of them started chatting.

Not only did Xia You and Xiao Yao tell Ji Ke about the interesting things that happened during their travels, Ji Ke also told them about what happened between Xia You and Charizard in the canyon.

Ji Ke is a lively, cheerful and talkative person, and the few of them chatted until late at night.

It was not until they noticed that it had become pitch dark outside the window that they realized how late it was.

"Oh, is it already this late? Wait a moment, I'll go prepare dinner!"

After declining Xia You and Xiao Yao's offer of help, Ji Ke put on an apron and walked into the kitchen. Not long after, the two of them smelled the faint aroma of food.

From the sound, it could be heard that Ji Ke was obviously stewing something.

However, this is not something that can be accomplished in a short period of time, and taking advantage of this time, Xia You finally has time to communicate with his Charizard.

It would be impossible to clearly understand the growth of Charizard just by words, so after communicating for a few words and signaling Xiaoyao to stay here, Xia You simply took Charizard out of the hut and walked into the darkness.

Xiaoyao didn't ask Xia You what she was going to do. In fact, she had already guessed it.

It's nothing more than using it to understand how Charizard grows.

While she was talking to Ji Ke's Charizard, she saw this little Lisa actually followed her out!

Well, I'm the only one left...

After staying in the house for a long time, Xiaoyao was so bored that she had to let out her Strength Chicken and Eevee to keep her company and pass the time.

And this scene is exactly what I saw after I walked out of the kitchen carrying the soup pot.

"Huh?" Ji Ke asked in confusion as he placed the soup pot on the dining table. "Where are Xia You and the Charizards?"

"They're out for something and will be back soon."

"out?"

As a trainer, Ji Ke naturally understood why Xia You took the Pokémon out at this time, so he just shook his head and said nothing.

What puzzled her was why her little Lisa was also going along?

Just at this moment, as the door opened, Xia You pushed the door open with two fire-breathing dragons.

"Oh? Am I the only one missing?" Seeing Xiaoyao helping Ji Ke set the tableware, Xia You laughed, "It seems that I came back at the right time!"

Xiaoyao and Ji Ke could both see a smile on his face, a smile of satisfaction. It seemed that he was obviously very satisfied with Charizard's growth.

After washing their hands and releasing a few Pokémon, everyone had dinner together.

I have to say, just like Ji Ke said, she is really good at cooking. Although today's dinner is relatively simple and the main course is just a pot of seasonal thick soup, it is this ordinary dish that can be made so delicious, which allows us to experience the chef's skills!

Although it wasn’t so delicious that they jumped for joy, Xia You and Xiao Yao still praised it highly!

Especially Xiaoyao, she even ate a few more bites and her little belly was full!

……

After resting for a night in Ji Ke’s cabin, they waited until the next morning. After washing up and having breakfast, they headed to the deepest part of the Charizard Canyon.

Although there are a large number of wild Charizards gathered here, each of them has its own territories.

For example, the largest open area behind the gate is shared by all Charizards and is also their main activity space. However, not all Charizards are qualified to go deep into other places.

And the most powerful one in this fire-breathing dragon canyon is in a place like this.

It occupies the most comfortable and highest place in the entire Charizard Canyon, but today, this position and the title of the strongest in Charizard Canyon will have a new owner!

Perhaps it was the arrival of Xia You and Xiao Yao that made the Charizards here realize something, or perhaps the Charizards had foreseen this challenge before. Just as the group and two Charizards were heading towards their destination, countless Charizards emerged from all around and followed them into the depths of the canyon.

It seems that no matter who it is, they know that something big is going to happen today!

As a result, the air seems to be filled with tension!

Even for Xiaoyao, it was clearly none of her business and she was just a spectator, but affected by the atmosphere, even she became nervous!

My dear, there is more to come after this chapter. Please click on the next page to continue reading. There will be more exciting chapters later!

After crossing the wide canyon, they climbed a small hill, climbed a long flight of steps, and finally reached the highest point here.

And there, a huge and extremely strong fire-breathing dragon was half lying there, as if taking a nap with its eyes closed.

Judging from its unique temperament, it is clear that this should be the most powerful creature in the Fire Breathing Dragon Canyon.

"Is that it?" Xiaoyao lowered his voice, as if he didn't dare to wake it up. "It looks like it's not easy to deal with. It should be a tough guy..."

"Did I ever say my Charizard is better than the other?" Xia You smiled nonchalantly, "We'll only know who's stronger after a fight."

As they were talking, those wild fire-breathing dragons had formed a circle around the place. They let out low growls, looking excited yet somewhat restrained. But without exception, no one acted rashly. It was obvious that they all knew that this was a battle of great significance and challenge!

Among these fire-breathing dragons, Xia You saw a different one at a glance.

Compared to the other Charizards, the size of this one was nothing eye-catching, but unlike the other Charizards, it was excited and just half-hidden among the dragons, staring at its own Charizard with a look of envy and unwillingness.

Thinking of something, Xia You turned to look at Ji Ke.

"That Charizard should be the one Ash had, right?"

Although it was a question, Xia You's tone was very firm.

Ji Ke looked in the direction Xia You pointed and also saw the Charizard.

"Yes, it is indeed Xiaozhi's Charizard. Speaking of which, it is also very unwilling to admit defeat. I'm sure it must feel uncomfortable seeing your Charizard take the lead in challenging the top."

Before Xia You could speak, she added, "By the way, this challenge is about Charizard's honor, so no one except them can interfere in this battle, not even the trainers!"

Ji Ke’s meaning was very clear. He was telling Xia You that the outcome of this battle would depend entirely on the abilities of the two Pokémon!

But even if she didn't say it, Xia You didn't intend to intervene.

He came here this time just to witness this moment with his own eyes!
