Zhang Xingfeng smiled slightly and said, "Dragon King, there's no need to be so polite. Little Dragon and I are brothers in life and death. There's no need to talk about protecting each other. Besides, Little Dragon himself is quite strong. Little Dragon, don't you agree?"

Upon hearing this, Little Dragon said smugly, "Of course, this elder's strength is not just boasting!"

Huang Yan smiled and said, "Carefree King, rest assured, our Dragon Clan will never forget your great kindness to us. We will definitely repay you handsomely! You don't need to worry about that."

Although Huang Yan's words sounded correct, Zhang Xingfeng Huang Yan the strong arrogance in them. That condescending attitude made Zhang Xingfeng very uncomfortable, as if he had protected Little Dragon just for that little bit of gratitude.

Huang Yan, being wealthy and powerful, was like a rich and powerful lord, while Zhang Xingfeng was like a nobody. He protected the lord's family, and then the lord casually gave him a small reward as a generous gesture!

Zhang Xingfeng frowned, and a Sha Qi slowly began to rise in his heart. However, considering the Dragon King's strength, Zhang Xingfeng suppressed his anger.

The Dragon King frowned, feeling that Huang Yan's words were somewhat inappropriate.

Among the dragons, the Golden Dragon are inherently arrogant and haughty, believing themselves to be the strongest except for the Five-Clawed Divine Dragon! The Silver Dragon are the most amiable, rarely fighting with other dragon clans! The Dark Dragon are the most treacherous, ruthless, and cunning! The Long Yi are complacent and feign aloofness. The Red Dragon are the most warm and friendly, treating all dragons with kindness!

Of all the dragon races, only the Golden Dragon are the most hated because of their arrogance and disdain for humans!

Little Dragon immediately glared at the other dragons. His gaze finally settled entirely on Huang Yan, and he roared, "Roar! Second Brother and I are brothers in arms! Although I'm a member of the dragon race, I've never received any care or kindness from you. That Elder Suifeng made me become the Dragon King, and I only came because it's more prestigious. Humph, you're some kind of Grand Elder, I don't care what Supreme or Lower you are. If you've displeased me, I'll just pack up and leave!"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Xingfeng felt a touch of emotion and a smile appeared on his face.

Upon hearing this, the Dragon King immediately sensed something was amiss. Only then did he remember something: the Little Dragon had never lived among the dragons, and his feelings for them were perhaps limited to blood ties. The dragons had never shown him any real concern. In the Little Dragon's heart, Zhang Xingfeng, who had lived with him for so long and cared for him, held a far greater position than any member of the dragon clan!

Upon realizing this, the Dragon King glared at Huang Yan, then apologized to Zhang Xingfeng and the Little Dragon, saying, "Huang Yan is just like that; it's how the Golden Dragon Clan is by nature. I hope you don't mind. Little Dragon, you are Five-Clawed Divine Dragon of my Dragon Clan, a member of the royal family. Whether you have lived in the Dragon Clan before or not, you are a member of the Dragon Clan. You must remember this!"

Dragon King's words, the Little Dragon couldn't muster any anger, because he strongly felt the Dragon King's concern for him; the Dragon King felt like a father to him.

Zhang Xingfeng knew that things wouldn't go well for anyone if things continued like this, so he smiled and said, "The Grand Elder's mistake was Wuxin, Little Dragon, you don't need to pursue it too much!"

Upon hearing this, the Dragon King immediately exclaimed with delight, "The Carefree King is indeed magnanimous! Very well, today we will hold a celebration banquet in our clan for the return of the Carefree King and Little Dragon. Let's go!"

Inside the hall.

Huang Yang sat in the corner with a gloomy expression.

Ever since he learned that a Five-Clawed Divine Dragon had appeared, he had been very anxious. Today, when he learned that the Five-Clawed Divine Dragon had returned, his heart was in turmoil.

The Golden Dragon are incredibly arrogant, and they have the right to be arrogant. In terms of combat power, among those of the same cultivation level, apart from the Five-Clawed Divine Dragon, the Golden Dragon are the strongest!

In this generation, looking across the entire dragon race, only the Dragon King is a Five-Clawed Divine Dragon. Moreover, the Dragon King is now close to breaking through to the Mid-grade Divine Human realm and entering the Divine Realm. Once he enters the Divine Realm, the dragon race will have no more Five-Clawed Divine Dragon. At that time, the position of Dragon King Huang Yang surely belong to him!

Huang Yang's father was the Grand Elder, and Huang Yang's skill had reached the Low-grade Divine Human. He believed that apart from the three Supreme Elders and the Dragon King, he was the strongest! The arrogant Huang Yang thought that if he didn't become the Dragon King, who else could?

"Hmph, Carefree King, a King Tier guy from the Spirit Realm, what a bastard! He actually brought Five-Clawed Divine Dragon to my Dragon Clan. If it weren't for him, this Five-Clawed Divine Dragon would probably have been wiped out by the White Tiger Clan. Carefree King, since you have ruined my great cause, then..." A ruthless glint flashed in Huang Yang's eyes.

When Huang Yang saw the Dragon King and his entourage enter through the gate, his expression immediately returned to its former arrogance.

The Dragon King sat on his throne, looking down at his fellow dragons, a broad smile on his face. He proclaimed, "Everyone, today is the happiest day of my life! Haha... Today, my dragon clan finally has another Five-Clawed Divine Dragon! He has returned to our clan! Haha..." The Dragon King's laughter was so sincere and excited. Clearly, his joy came from the bottom of his heart. Something that had troubled him for countless years had finally come true; how could he not be happy?

"Little Dragon, come here, come to my side!" the Dragon King said to the Little Dragon with a smile.

Little Dragon felt that he could never refuse the Dragon King's words, so he slowly walked to the Dragon King's side.

The Dragon King immediately announced to everyone, "This is another Five-Clawed Divine Dragon of my dragon clan, and he will also be the future Earth Dragon King of my dragon clan."

Most of the dragons were all smiles. It was customary for Five-Clawed Divine Dragon to become the Dragon King, which was perfectly normal! But Huang Yang's face was so gloomy that it was almost dripping with water. Fortunately, he deliberately sat in a corner, so many people didn't notice.

However, the Dragon King noticed that Dragon King had known Huang Yang's thoughts for a long time, but he did not oppose him. Who was Huang Yang? He was the son of Huang Yan, the leader of the Golden Dragon Clan, and it was obvious that Huang Yang was extremely talented. He was now the fifth strongest in the Dragon Clan, second only to the three Supreme Elders and the Dragon King!

The Dragon King believed that once the Little Dragon appeared, Huang Yang should give up his grand ambitions, so the Dragon King did not take any action.

Zhang Xingfeng also noticed Huang Yang's presence. Throughout the hall, Zhang Xingfeng remained calm and unaffected by the atmosphere. Now that the Dragon King had announced that the Little Dragon would become the Dragon King, someone's face darkened. Zhang Xingfeng immediately memorized this person's features.

"Everyone, we need to thank one person for enabling Little Dragon to return to the Dragon Clan. That person is the Carefree King of the Spirit Realm!" the Dragon King announced loudly.

All the dragons looked towards Zhang Xingfeng, because only Zhang Xingfeng and Yu Yan were not dragons.

Zhang Xingfeng smiled faintly and said, "Little Dragon and I are brothers. I am happy for him Little Dragon he was able to return to his clan."

The celebratory banquet quickly became lively, but Zhang Xingfeng exuded a faint, cold aura, which reduced his social engagements.

Half a day later, the celebration banquet finally came to an end.

"Yin Dian, arrange the accommodations for the Carefree King!" the Dragon King said to Yin Dian, the Second Grand Elder. This made sense; Yin Dian Silver Dragon clan was generally amicable, and handling such matters would be relatively smooth.

The Dragon King then turned to Zhang Xingfeng and said, "Your Carefree King, I'll speak with Little Dragon Carefree King. You and your wife should go and rest. I've already asked Yin Dian to arrange this."

Zhang Xingfeng nodded calmly, then turned to look at Little Dragon and said, "Little Dragon, you must listen to the Dragon King, understand? I believe everything the Dragon King does is for your own good."

Little Dragon Longen nodded and said to Zhang Xingfeng, "Second Brother, don't worry, I'll come find you as soon as this is over!"

Afterwards, Little Dragon and the Dragon King left the hall, and Zhang Xingfeng and Yu Yan also left the hall with Yin Dian.

Led by Yin Dian, Zhang Xingfeng and Yu Yan walked through the garden and into a corridor. Suddenly, a figure appeared in front of the three of them.

"Uncle Tian!"

Upon seeing this, Yin Dian smiled and said, "Oh, it's Huang Yang. What's the matter?"

Yin Dian had a good impression of Huang Yang, mainly because Huang Yang had wanted to become the Dragon King in the past, so he was quite respectful to the three Supreme Elders.

Huang Yang smiled and said, "The Carefree King brought back the Five-Clawed Divine Dragon of my clan, which is a great favor to my Huang Yang clan. I am also grateful, so I want to serve the Carefree King. I wonder if Uncle Dian can let me take on this task?"

Yin Dian was taken aback for a moment, then smiled and said, "Oh, you said you were going to arrange accommodations for Carefree King wife? Well, that's a kind thought. Alright, I'll leave this to you." Yin Dian then turned to Zhang Xingfeng and asked, "Carefree King, shouldn't Huang Yang be allowed to take care of you? Is that alright?"

Zhang Xingfeng glanced at Huang Yang and thought to himself, "Isn't this the guy with the gloomy face at the banquet? What's he up to with that smiling face now? But, he's just Low-grade Divine Human, the Despair Prison Realm could easily take him in. I want to see what he's up to."

Huang Yang looked at Zhang Xingfeng with apparent sincerity and hurriedly said, "Your Carefree King, my Dragon Clan cannot do without the Five-Clawed Divine Dragon. Your kindness to my Dragon Clan is truly beyond our ability to repay. I came here wanting to serve Your Carefree King, and also to put my mind at ease! Could you give me this opportunity?"

Zhang Xingfeng nodded and said, "Okay!"

Yin Dian then reminded Huang Yang, "You must be very careful. This is an order from the Dragon King. Don't cause any accidents. Well, I trust you with your work. Carefree King, this old man will take his leave now!"

Zhang Xingfeng nodded, and then Zhang Xingfeng Yu Yan continued forward under Huang Yang's enthusiastic guidance.

As they walked, Zhang Xingfeng and *** Yan, led by Huang Yang, arrived at a courtyard.

The courtyard was filled with flowers, their fragrance filling the air. Yu Yan smiled as soon as she saw it, and Zhang Xingfeng was also satisfied with the courtyard.

"Carefree King, humph, do you know how big a mistake you have made?" Huang Yang closed the courtyard gate and said with a gloomy face.

Zhang Xingfeng was startled. He was surprised to find that closing the courtyard gate had activated a mysterious array, completely isolating the courtyard from the outside world. Zhang Xingfeng had been carefully observing the area, but he hadn't noticed any array before. The fact that an array had appeared now was truly astonishing.

"Stop looking! This great formation is the Silver Dragon Clan's Cosmic Array, a formation that took me nearly a hundred million years to acquire!" Huang Yang said proudly.

The Cosmic Array is an extremely powerful formation within the Silver Dragon Clan, but it is not passed down to outsiders. Huang Yang spent hundreds of millions of years acquiring it through various means. This Cosmic Array is incredibly powerful; once activated, the target will be trapped within it forever, unable to escape. Of course, if the target's power far surpasses that of the caster, the outcome will be different.

"Haha... I acquired this formation back then to become the Dragon King and eliminate dissidents, but I never expected it to end up on you today. Haha..." Huang Yang laughed wildly.

Zhang Xingfeng looked at Huang Yang calmly and said, "Do you think you are my opponent? Even if you can defeat me, do you think you can get the Dragon King and the others to let you go?"

Huang Yang laughed wildly, "Hmph... Dragon King? This formation is a secret of the Silver Dragon Clan. Who would know that I was the one who poisoned him!" Suddenly, Huang Yang looked at Zhang Xingfeng with a vicious expression and said, "It's all your fault, it's all your fault, you bastard! It's because of you that my position as Dragon King was taken away by that bastard who came from who-knows-where."

Zhang Xingfeng's face darkened. "Mongrel? Little Dragon is a Yellow Clan Five-Clawed Divine Dragon of the Dragon Clan!"

Huang Yang scoffed, "Hmph, the Five- Five-Clawed Divine Dragon are hybrids. Each one is born from the interbreeding of different dragon races. If they weren't Five-Clawed Divine Dragon powerful and possessed the skills of all the major dragon races, how could they be Dragon King!"

Huang Yang's hand gleamed. "You Carefree King, you made me lose my position as Dragon King, so I'll let you taste the pain of losing your wife first, and then slowly torture you to death!" Huang Yang's voice was extremely vicious.

Upon hearing this, Zhang Xingfeng's expression changed drastically. Only then did he realize that a current of energy seemed to have entered his body. His Fire Element Power immediately surged forth, instantly absorbing the special energy!

Zhang Xingfeng immediately looked at Yu Yan face was turning deathly pale. Zhang Xingfeng's Divine Sense detected that the special energy flow was impacting the immortal energy within Yu Yan's body, and the immortal energy was unable to resist it at all, causing chaos within Yu Yan's body.

Zhang Xingfeng immediately circulated his Fire Element Power, entering Yu Yan's body to instantly eliminate the peculiar energy flow. However, Yu Yan's injuries were already too severe, so Zhang Xingfeng immediately took out a Ziyuan Pill and put it in Yu Yan's mouth. Soon, Yu Yan's complexion began to regain its rosy hue.

"Haha... the Hundred Spirits Qi, this is the treasure of the Hundred Spirits Poison Emperor the Spirit Realm! Anyone who is hit by it will die instantly unless they reach the Low-grade Divine Human Realm! Haha... Enjoy the pain of your dead wife!" Huang Yang laughed wildly. Suddenly, he noticed that Yu Yan's face had regained its rosy hue, and he was shocked. "Impossible? Anyone below the Low-grade Divine Human Realm will die instantly. It has never failed before. Impossible!"

Zhang Xingfeng breathed a sigh of relief after seeing Yu Yan recover, but in an instant, a strong murderous intent filled his heart. Zhang Xingfeng slowly raised his head and looked at Huang Yang, his voice like it came from the deepest hell, carrying a chill that swept through people's hearts. "I want you... to wish you were dead!"

The Despair Prison Realm slowly floated in front of Zhang Xingfeng, emitting a black light of death...
