Li Changsheng frowned slightly and asked aloud.
Is what you said true?
Ao Lie took a deep breath, trying his best not to reveal his killing intent.
"Every word is true! Xue'er has indeed been killed, and he has not returned to the Dragon Clan since before you arrived."
"When you came looking for Xue'er, I thought he was with the Dragon Clan."
"But I never expected that I would discover this when I checked the life token that was connected to his life force."
"His life token was already broken! Judging from the time, it must have been two or three days ago!"
Two or three days ago!
Upon hearing Ao Lie's words, Ji Zining, Mo Shang, Xiao Jing, Li Chang'an, Lin Shan, and Qingshuang couldn't help but tense up.
This time point coincides with the moment when Mo Shang was severely injured.
So, Ao Xue was killed after Mo Shang was seriously injured and fled!
At that time, the only one capable of killing her, and with the strength to do so, was... Huang Xi!
Of course, this is all on the premise that Ao Lie is not lying. If Ao Lie is lying, then none of this applies.
Li Changsheng glanced at Ji Zining and the others, then said in a deep voice.
Where is his life token?
As if he already knew what Li Changsheng was going to say, Ao Lie simply opened his palm, revealing a broken jade token.
"This is Ao Xue's life token; it was already like this when I arrived."
Li Changsheng glanced at it and confirmed that the token had broken naturally, rather than being destroyed by external force.
This indicates that the owner of this life token has indeed passed away.
Turning around, Li Changsheng looked at Mo Shang.
"You've had the most contact with Ao Xue, so confirm whether the remaining aura on it is Ao Xue's."
As long as the remaining life force on the Life Token belongs to Ao Xue, it proves that Ao Lie was not lying.
Mo Shang nodded slightly, extending his divine soul power to envelop the shattered token in Ao Lie's hand.
A moment later, Mo Shang withdrew his divine soul power and spoke solemnly to Li Changsheng.
"Ancestor, this is indeed Ao Xue's life token!"
Besides the solemnity in his tone, there was also a hint of disbelief.
He couldn't believe that Ao Xue was actually dead!
The final winner among the top three on their Heavenly Pride Ranking was actually Huang Xi, who ranked second?!
Upon hearing this, Li Changsheng nodded slightly.
" Ao Lie, what are you planning to do?"
A cold glint flashed in Ao Lie's eyes.
"I will immediately gather the Quasi-Emperor of the Dragon Clan and go to Phoenix Slope with you!"
" The Dragon Clan cannot be insulted, and the five-clawed golden dragon even less so!"
No matter what, Ao Xue is still a son of the Dragon Clan, representing the face of their Dragon Clan.
Now that the Dragon Prince has perished, if their Dragon Clan doesn't come up with some countermeasures, the entire True Martial Dao Domain will probably laugh at the Dragon Clan!
He absolutely cannot allow the Dragon Clan to decline under his rule, absolutely not!
Being suppressed by the Ziwei Holy Land once is enough; we can't afford to be suppressed by the Phoenix Clan again!
Upon hearing Ao Lie's words, for some reason, Ji Zining and the others unconsciously developed strange expressions.
The Dragon Clan cannot be insulted? What was that just now?
However, since they are now considered allies, these words cannot be spoken aloud.
Li Changsheng raised an eyebrow.
"Alright, hurry up and prepare. Let me make this clear from the start: that thing belongs to my Ziwei Holy Land."
"If your Dragon Clan wants to seize it, don't blame me for being ruthless and disregarding past relationships."
Ao Lie nodded.
"Rest assured, my Dragon Clan is only here to punish the Phoenix Clan; we will not touch that item of yours."
"My Dragon Clan can understand this basic principle."
After speaking, Ao Lie moved and flew away into the distance.
Immediately afterwards, a tremendous dragon roar resounded, and a colossal golden dragon appeared above Dragon Valley.
"Sing!"
" Dragon Clan Quasi-Emperor, follow me on the expedition!"
The golden dragon has four enormous claws growing from its belly, each with five toes, a testament to its powerful bloodline.
Five-clawed golden dragon!
Normally, Dragon Clan only have four toes, but only the five-clawed golden dragon has five toes, which is a sign of the noble bloodline of the five-clawed golden dragon!
Within Dragon Valley, many Dragon Clan gazed at the golden dragon in the sky and couldn't help but feel a sense of awe.
This is the strongest member of their Dragon Clan, the ancestor of the Five-Clawed Golden Dragon Clan, Ao Lie!
Peak Quasi-Emperor expert, ranking among the top experts in the entire True Martial Dao Domain!
"Sing!"
"Sing!"
"Sing!"
"..."
Within Dragon Valley, several dragon roars resounded, and one after another, giant dragons burst forth from below the Dragon Valley and ascended to the sky.
These dragons are of different colors, representing that they come from different Dragon Clan, but they all share the same aura, which is that of Quasi-Emperor level!
At a glance, there were six Quasi-Emperor of the Dragon Clan who had taken off!
The Flame Dragon Ancestor had been knocked unconscious by Kong Sheng earlier was also among them.
Unlike before, this time the Flame Dragon Ancestor did not speak arrogantly, but instead lowered his head, as if afraid that others would see him.
With the addition Dragon Clan Ao Lie, there are now seven Quasi-Emperor Dragon Clan guarding the Dragon Valley!
This strength indeed surpasses the apparent strength of the four major powers.
Even the four major powers combined are no match for the Dragon Clan!
Seeing this, Li Changsheng gently waved to Kong Sheng and the others.
"Let's set off for Phoenix Slope!"
After speaking, he stepped forward, tearing through space and flying into the void.
Kong Sheng and the others revealed their auras and followed closely behind.
Ji Zining also moved with Mo Shang and the others, disappearing into the spatial rift.
Ao Lie's enormous golden dragon body swayed, and a majestic voice rang out.
"Follow the powerful figures from the Ziwei Holy Land; we're allies on this trip to Phoenix Slope!"
Having said that, without any hesitation, he rushed into the void.
The other Dragon Clan Quasi-Emperor did not hesitate and followed Ao Lie, disappearing without a trace.
Inside Dragon Valley.
The Dragon Clan looked at each other in bewilderment.
What's going on?
Weren't they just about to fight to the death with the Ziwei Holy Land?
How did they suddenly become allies and start attacking the Phoenix Clan?!
