I'll Need You to Lend a Hand Later
"With the Dragon Race present, who dares to act rashly!"
As the sound faded.
The mighty dragon's power surged forth like a monstrous wave.
Instantly, everyone outside the Liu Clan tensed up.
The next moment, countless eyes turned to the source of the strange phenomenon.
When they saw the enormous dragon figures that appeared out of nowhere on the distant horizon, shock filled the faces of countless people.
So many?
"The Dragon Race mostly reside in the Extreme North Realm and rarely venture into Human Race territory. It's astonishing that so many have come this time."
"Why would the Dragon Race appear at this time? Could it be that they're also after the Liu Clan? That can't be right. What could the Liu Clan possibly have that would warrant such a large-scale attack from the Dragon Race?"
"Zhu Sheng." Zhu Zhu turned and spoke:
"Did the matter of the Emperor's Tomb involve any provocation against the Dragon Race?"
Upon hearing this, Zhu Sheng quickly recalled what he had heard, and then shook his head.
"A dragon did indeed appear at the Emperor's Tomb back then, but none of my Zhu Clan dared to touch it."
Zhu Zhu nodded, his gaze returning to the distant dragon shadows:
"Could it be that this Dragon Race also covets the chair held by the Liu Clan?"
At this time.
In the distance, on the horizon, eighteen dragon shadows, led by Long Xiao, lined up in a row.
The enormous dragon head and massive dragon body, like a continuous stretch of dark clouds, drifted in.
At this moment, both inside and outside the Liu Clan, there was a tense and solemn atmosphere.
Dragons, as powerful sacred beasts recorded in ancient books and legends, are rare even when they appear alone. But now, eighteen dragon shadows have arrived together. Not only the Liu Clan, but also the powerful figures of the Mystic Yang Realm are seeing this for the first time.
As for the purpose of this action, it remains unknown, leaving people to speculate.
Among the Liu Clan.
Zhu Dengfeng stared intently at the dragon shadows. Several breaths had passed, but the sword in his hand remained motionless.
Although the overwhelming dragon's might was overwhelming, he could sense that it was aimed directly at him.
"The Liu Clan?"
Distracted by the reactions of the Liu Clan's powerful members, Zhu Dengfeng also had some doubts.
Regardless of the Liu Clan's current reaction, if the Liu Clan truly had the Dragon Race's assistance, why would they have remained hidden until now?
"The only possibility is that it's another secret of the Liu Clan."
Zhu Dengfeng understood.
He had no doubt that the Liu Clan was hiding other secrets; the fact that the Liu Clan's defensive measures, which even their own sword strikes could not cause substantial damage from the outside, spoke volumes.
In the blink of an eye.
A group of dragon shadows had arrived above the Liu Clan.
The dragon's body blotted out the sky and sun, leaving only a few spots where sunlight could still shine through, while the rest was completely obscured by shadows.
At this moment, countless people slightly raised their heads.
Lu Changzhi also turned his gaze to Long Xiao, understanding dawning on him:
"Looks like they're here for Black Tortoise."
As he spoke, Lu Changzhi glanced at where Long Yang was.
At this moment, Long Yang leaped up, revealed his dragon form, and flew into the sky.
What is that?
Long Yang leaped into the air, a powerful figure with swift eyes and hands grabbed him and pulled him away into the distance.
As the spiritual energy receded, a drop of scarlet blood was seen suspended within it.
"This?"
The man looked up at the dragon shadow soaring into the air, his expression shifting slightly:
"Dragon blood? So, they've come to settle scores?!"
Meanwhile, at high altitudes.
"Third Uncle, you've finally arrived."
Long Yang spoke to Long Xiao in the language of dragons:
"The forces from the Mystic Yang Realm have arrived. One of their Emperor Ancestors has already entered the palace. They specifically requested to take away this Imperial Prince of the Liu Clan. If they arrive any later, they'll have to find another place to go."
Long Xiao looked at Long Yang:
"And what about the prince of the Liu Clan?"
Long Yang gently shook his head:
Their whereabouts are currently unknown.
Long Xiao blinked, but asked:
"How did you get hurt again?"
Long Yang sighs:
"I had no choice; with my third uncle not coming, I couldn't act rashly. I was just holding back."
Upon hearing this, Long Xiao wasn't too surprised or confused, he simply said:
"Because of the Liu Clan's imperial prince?"
Long Yang shook his head:
"The ancestral emperor of the Zhu Clan in the Mystic Yang Realm is probably more suitable than the imperial prince of the Liu Clan."
As he spoke, Long Yang gestured with his eyes to indicate the location of the Liu Clan.
Long Xiao followed his gaze and his eyes immediately fell on Zhu Dengfeng.
After a brief silence, Long Xiao said:
"Although we Dragon Race are born with the ability to fly, there are some things we still need to do practically. If I remember correctly, this ancestor of the Zhu Clan looks young, but in reality, he has already reached the Emperor Realm among Human Race."
Long Yang looked regretful.
"Although the Human Race's Emperor Realm are strong, Uncle brought so many dragons with him this time. Isn't this just a piece of cake?"
Long Xiao glanced at Long Yang:
"If the Dragon Race cannot achieve their Atavism, the kind of freedom you just mentioned will be difficult to maintain."
"This time, we still need your help. As for the Zhu Clan's ancestral emperor, let's think this through carefully. This time, let's try out this Liu Clan's imperial son first."
Upon hearing this, Long Yang's eyes lit up:
"Third Uncle, is this really true?"
"Um."
Long Xiao nodded slightly:
"This is also the clan chief's intention."
"Chief!"
Long Yang's expression changed, and he was about to ask something else when Long Xiao turned to look at the Liu Clan and spoke:
"Liu Clan, hand over your imperial prince!"
Upon hearing this, the vast majority of people present breathed a sigh of relief.
Only the Liu Clan and Zhu Clan each carried their own burdens.
"Are they also here for the Liu Clan's imperial prince?"
Zhu Sheng frowned slightly, trying hard to recall the events at the imperial tomb to make sure he hadn't missed anything.
On the other side, the hearts of the Liu Clan's elders, who had finally managed to calm down, were now stirred up again.
"The Dragon Race, too, is subject to Tianming. We've never really had any dealings with Dragon Race, have we?"
"Whether the Dragon Race' intentions are good or bad is hard to judge based on their current posture, but to issue such orders upon arrival is most likely not a good thing."
Liu Duanyuan frowned, as if he had thought of something:
"Could it be him who did this?"
It only mentioned the Liu Clan's imperial son, but during this period, Liu Tianming wasn't the only one claiming the title of the Liu Clan's imperial son.
Considering that the other party had also cooperated with him to come to the Liu Clan, Liu Duanyuan was almost 100% certain.
This Dragon Race was brought in by Lu Changzhi!
Everyone had their own thoughts. At this moment, Liu Ruoyu cupped his hands and spoke:
"Dragon Race Senior, this powerful figure from the Mystic Yang Realm just now killed one of our clan's experts and forced us to hand over the Imperial Son. But our Liu Clan only has one Imperial Son, I'm afraid..."
Upon hearing this, Long Xiao looked at Zhu Dengfeng.
Zhu Dengfeng was not surprised at all and immediately spoke up:
"My Zhu Clan has no intention of conflict with the Dragon Race. I wonder why the Dragon Race wants the Liu Clan's imperial prince?"
"That person," Long Xiao replied.
"That's good." Zhu Dengfeng smiled slightly.
"We are not interested in the Liu Clan's imperial prince; we only need some of the things he possesses."
"Is that thing alive?" Long Xiao asked, his eyes narrowing slightly.
Zhu Dengfeng showed a hint of surprise, then shook his head:
Even if objects possess a spirit, they are unlikely to be considered living beings.
Upon hearing this, Long Xiao nodded slightly:
"OK."
