Chapter 17 - Wandering Mage and a Demon Lord

Li Xuan and his harem stood victorious, their determination and Li Xuan's dragon god powers paving the way to their success. As they caught their breath, a figure emerged from the smoke and rubble of the destroyed tree.

It was a man dressed in strange robes, wielding a staff, and with eyes that sparkled with otherworldly light. His lips twisted into a sly grin.

"Well, well, well," he said, his voice dripping with amusement. "What have we here? A dragon god and his harem, destroying my forest?"

Li Xuan bristled at the man's words, ready to defend himself and his harem. But before he could even speak, the man burst out laughing.

"Hahaha, I'm just kidding! I'm Kaito, a wandering mage and lover of a good joke. I couldn't resist pulling your leg!"

Li Xuan and his harem breathed a sigh of relief, realizing that Kaito was not a threat. They introduced themselves, and Kaito laughed and joked with them, his easy-going personality putting them at ease.

As they talked, Kaito explained that he was a mage who traveled the world, seeking new experiences and adventures. He had been studying the forest's magic when he sensed the disturbance caused by Li Xuan and his harem.

"Your dragon fire was impressive, but it caused quite a mess," Kaito said, his eyes twinkling. "I'm afraid you'll have to help me clean up the forest before you go."

Li Xuan and his harem groaned at the thought of cleaning up the massive forest, but Kaito just laughed.

"Don't worry, I'll make it fun!" he said, his staff glowing with magic. "I'll conjure up some friendly forest spirits to help us, and we'll have a party while we work!"

And so, Li Xuan and his harem spent the rest of the day cleaning up the forest, laughing and joking with Kaito and the forest spirits. As they finished, Kaito turned to Li Xuan.

"You and your harem are quite the adventurers," he said, his eyes sparkling with mischief. "How about we team up and explore the world together?"

Li Xuan and his harem exchanged glances, feeling a sense of excitement at the prospect of new adventures. They nodded in agreement, and Kaito grinned.

"Great! Let's go!" he said, leading them off into the horizon

As they journeyed across the land, Li Xuan and his harem soon came across a small village that seemed to be in distress. The villagers were in a state of panic, with many of them missing and no sign of their whereabouts.

Li Xuan and his harem quickly sprang into action, determined to find the missing villagers and bring them back to safety. Kaito used his magic to search for any traces of the missing villagers, while Li Xuan and his harem scoured the surrounding areas for any clues.

After hours of searching, they finally stumbled upon a hidden cave, deep in the heart of the forest. The entrance was well-concealed, but Li Xuan's sharp senses allowed him to detect it.

As they made their way into the cave, they found themselves facing a horde of demons. Li Xuan and his harem fought bravely, but the demons seemed endless. Kaito used his magic to provide support, but it seemed like they were outnumbered and outmatched

Just as they were about to be overwhelmed, Li Xuan's dragon god powers suddenly surged, blazing with an intense fire. With a powerful roar, he unleashed a devastating blast of flames, incinerating the demons and clearing their path forward.

As they advanced deeper into the cave, they finally found the missing villagers, trapped in a large chamber. But to their horror, they also found a demon lord, towering over the villagers and ready to strike.
