Chapter 684 – Meeting the Dragon Emperor

This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml

Longyao Chuanyun looked at Lin Xuanzhi with complex eyes full of respect and mixed with various unidentified emotions for a moment, and then he said: “Recently, I have heard that Huarong Sword Venerable has protected the ten thousand years foundation of Myriad Dao Academy with his own strength. I, Longyao Chuanyun really admire you. I will go now and inform the Dragon Emperor, the Grandmaster is worthy of being greeted by the Dragon Emperor in person.”

Speaking of this, the major characters being invited would all inform the dragon clan of their arrival time in advance. This was not only for the convenience of the host’s arrangement, but also a psychological preparation for the host. After all, the most important thing for major figures was the ostentation, and the host going out to welcome them personally meant these figures were of great importance.

Lin Xuanzhi stopped Longyao Chuanyun. “You don’t need to disturb the Dragon Emperor. I haven’t received the invitation and came uninvited. It’s difficult for the host to welcome me in person.”

Longyao Chunayun felt his back grow cold. He felt that there was some other meaning in Lin Xuanzhi’s words.

Hai Kuanglang also sneered. “There is no need to bother the Dragon Emperor. I really want to give him an unexpected surprise.”

Longyao Chuanyun: “I still need to tell the Dragon Emperor. After all, a Grandmaster has come, and…”

He quickly glanced at Hai Kuanglang, and lowered his voice, “Longyao Lingguang also returned from Myriad Dao Academy yesterday, and he also brought a great power. He was said to be a Sword God Hall elder of Myriad Dao Academy named Tianquan. The Dragon Emperor was very happy, and welcomed the Sword Saint Tianquan with a grand show, and made the two brothers, Longyao Lingguang and Longyao Lingheng, unparalleled in the limelight for a time, and extremely arrogant. I am afraid you’ll suffer.”

Longyao Lingguang was also a disciple of Myriad Dao Academy, and he was also a disciple of the Sword Saint Tianquan. It was reasonable for the Sword Saint Tianquan to come to cheer and support him.

As soon as Yan Tianhen heard that the person he hated was very ostentatious, he even yelled: “Then go and tell the Dragon Emperor that this Prince, the second heir to the Qianyuan Dynasty, has personally come. I want to see just whose pomp is bigger!”

Longyao Chuanyun immediately cupped his hands. “Prince, wait here. I’ll come back soon.”

On ordinary days, Yan Tianhen never put on airs for being the second heir of the Qianyuan Dynasty. However, when it was time to put on a show, he still did that. Otherwise, he would be crushed by people he didn’t like, which would ruin his mood for no reason.

Longyao Chuanyun climbed onto his horse, and the divine horse spread its wings and flew quickly towards the palace, making a distant cry.

Inside the Longyao family.

The status of Longyao Lingheng and Longyao Lingguang among the younger generation of the Dragon family could be regarded as transcendent and unparalleled, not only because they were of the same lineage and their mother was the previous generation’s Holy Maiden, but also because they themselves had inherited a very thick dragon bloodline. Their true forms could transform into a half dragon, with superior strength and talent.

“Did you sleep well yesterday?” Longyao Lingheng asked.

“It’s always more comfortable to sleep at home.” Longyao Lingguang stretched out his arms sloppily, yawned, and said, “You didn’t look for me when you came back yesterday. Where did you go?”

When Longyao Lingheng turned to his brother, he was naturally a little more sincere and straightened out the somewhat messy collar for him. “Get dressed and come out again. Our father sent me to entertain some distinguished guests for him yesterday, and it was already evening when I came back. You had already gone to bed; how can you have the face to blame me?”

Longyao Lingguang stuck out his tongue. “So it wasn’t because you were with my future sister-in-law?”

Longyao Lingheng slapped Longyao Lingguang’s head. “You talk too much.”

Longyao Lingguang touched his head and said, “Brother, speaking of this competition, have you already chosen someone to enter the Dragon Tomb Holy Land with you? Yesterday I asked about the rules — one person can bring three people in at most, and the cultivation base must be controlled at the peak of the Major Perfection Stage. These three, you have to choose well.”

Longyao Lingheng said, “Fu Li of the tiger clan is my best friend, and his cultivation has now reached the major attainment phase of the Major Perfection Stage. In addition, there’s also my master, so there probably won’t be any major problems.”

Longyao Lingguang asked, “Then who is the third person?”

Longyao Lingheng paused. “I don’t know.

Longyao Lingguang froze. “What do you mean by you don’t know?

Longyao Lingheng answered, “He is a great power my master chose for me. It is said that he is already at the peak of the Major Perfection Stage, but he always wears a cloak and a mask on his face from morning to night. I’m not clear about his appearance, and his cultivation base is indeed unfathomable — I can be sure that I’m no match for him. But I will inevitably feel a little uneasy about such a person, whose origin is unknown.”

When Longyao Linguang heard this, he didn’t take it seriously. “Master Yuquan is already half a step into the Grandmaster Stage and is the most enshrined guest elder of the Longyao clan. He is wholeheartedly devoted to Dage. It is impossible for him to mistreat you, so that mysterious black-clothed powerhouse must have some great abilities.”

Longyao Lingheng had been involved in the world for a long time. He frowned slightly. “I always feel that at this time, if you don’t know their origins, there will be some accidents.”

“Brother, you are too careful.” Longyao Lingguang smiled. “Even if he is not reliable, don’t you still have me? Besides me, there are also most of the disciples of the Longyao clan who have the right of inheritance. Among them, who doesn’t know that you are the recognized heir of the dragon clan? Even if you haven’t been to the Dragon Tomb Holy Land for the time being, you have already been recognized by our ancestors, so looking at the whole family, who is more qualified than Dage? They know this in their hearts.”

Longyao Lingheng felt a lot of comfort when he heard these words, but he was still not dazzled by his usual stability. “In the face of power, people’s hearts are unpredictable. In the whole clan, I only trust you.”

“That’s natural, no matter when, I wholeheartedly support Dage.” Longyao Lingguang raised his chin, looking quite proud.

Longyao Lingheng smiled knowingly, and then exhorted, “After entering the Dragon Tomb Holy Land, you will follow me. The danger in the Holy Land is unknown. If you are by my side, I can rest assured.”

Longyao Lingguang nodded.

“However, Gege must be very careful about that bastard.” Longyao Lingguang thought about the Hai Kuanglang and couldn’t help frowning. “You don’t know this — his junior martial brother Yan Tianhen is also studying in Myriad Dao Academy. Although he took a rusty sword and his cultivation base is not great, he’s very good at making trouble. He actually hooked up with Huarong Sword Venerable–which is the new Grandmaster. I am worried that Huarong Sword Venerable will support them and go with him to the Dragon Tomb Holy Land.”

When Hai Kuanglang was mentioned, Longyao Lingheng’s eyes darkened. He stopped and stood in place, looking towards the magnificent Lake Mia. “That kid has always been ambitious. I really should be on guard. If he comes back this time, he will definitely be my biggest opponent.”

After a pause, Longyao Lingguang’s eyes sank. “No, he will definitely come back. And will bring that bitch with him.”

As soon as his voice fell, a person flew over on a spirit crane.

When the man was 10 meters away from Longyao Lingheng, he flipped off the bird mount and got down on one knee. “Young Master, just now, Longyao Chuanyun went to report to the Emperor. The second heir, Yan Tianhen, Prince Ye, and Huarong Sword Venerable, the elder of Myriad Dao Academy, have already arrived outside the Dragon Palace. The Dragon Emperor has personally led the incumbent elders and several direct disciples of the clan to greet them!”

Longyao Lingguang’s face changed, and he cursed, “Damn it! I knew this bastard definitely wouldn’t be easy to deal with! He actually invited Huarong Sword Venerable to be his backer! Dage, I have seen the swordsmanship of Huarong Sword Venerable with my own eyes. If he’s allowed to enter the Dragon Tomb Holy Land, then we will be in danger!”

“Why panic?” Although Longyao Lingheng’s complexion did not look very good, he was always calm and determined. “Even if he is a Grandmaster, his cultivation will be suppressed to the Major Perfection Stage forcibly when he arrives at the Dragon Tomb Holy Land. Besides, he made the Grandmaster’s Oath, so he has an additional layer of suppression than other people. There is no need to worry about it.”

But even so, the return of Hai Kuanglang, making such a big show, was also unpleasant in people’s hearts, as if they had swallowed a fly.

Externally, among the juniors of the dragon clan, the most qualified person to compete was Longyao Lingheng. Although he had not been baptized and recognized by the Dragon Ancestor Holy Land, he was already the next heir almost by default. Whoever overshadowed his limelight, in a deeper sense, meant challenging his inheritance.

Longyao Lingguang was still young; however, he came from a Divine Clan, and the meaning of this could be seen at a glance.

Longyao Lingguang sneered. “I don’t want to go out to welcome him and give him such a big face. However, in the future, I want to see what he is capable of. He is just a bug in the mud, yet he still wants to make waves. It’s just laughable!”

In the end, Longyao Lingguang especially emphasized his tone. “I absolutely won’t go.”

Longyao Lingheng was supposed to be there, but since Longyao Lingguang was being petty, he was also willing to spoil him. “If you don’t go, then don’t go. What does it matter?”

………

When the Grandmaster came in person, even if he had little pomp, the host still needed to pull up the pomp immediately to make the Grandmaster feel at home, especially when the one with the highest cultivation level in the family had not reached the Grandmaster Stage. At least, they must give him lots of face, otherwise it was possible to annoy the Grandmaster and he could destroy the whole clan at any time.

Led by the Dragon Queen, the Dragon Emperor hurried to the square of the Heavenly Arch, which was several meters high in the Dragon Palace, with the grandiose hundred and ten elders, children, and house guests to welcome the arrival of Huarong Sword Venerable.

Yan Tianhen was stunned. If he wasn’t so worried about losing face, his eyes would have turned so big and his jaw would’ve dropped.

Naturally, the Dragon Emperor had seen Lin Xuanzhi’s portrait. He immediately cupped his hands and said, “I didn’t know that Huarong Sword Venerable would come all the way. Excuse me for not going out to welcome you. I hope Sword Venerable will forgive me.”

The Dragon Emperor was a very young looking man. He was gentle and introverted in his gestures. However, his imperial aura was not strong. At first glance, he didn’t seem to be the leader of the whole North Lands, but like a noble young master from a scholarly family.

Lin Xuanzhi also gave a half bow, then held up the Dragon Emperor and said, “I came uninvited. The Dragon Emperor doesn’t have to be so polite.”

The Dragon Emperor looked at Yan Tianhen and asked, “This one is Prince Ye?”

Yan Tianhen said, “It’s this Prince. My father has received the invitation from the Dragon Emperor, but my father is in a critical period of seclusion recently, so he may not be able to come.”
