After the crowd exchanged glances, a burst of laughter followed.
“Brother, it’s fine to boast, but don’t make it so easy to be exposed. As everyone knows, the dragon race rarely sets foot in the human realm, and they are always hiding in the Heavenly Pool territory.” someone remarked.
Another person added, “Exactly, the last time the Dragon Race appeared was when they joined forces with the soldiers of the Great Qian to resist the Garuda Tribe. Now that the Garuda Tribe is quiet, why would the Dragon Race appear?”
“Do you think I’m joking with you?” the man roared, “My second uncle just returned from the southern region yesterday, and he saw it with his own eyes!”
The man then recounted his second uncle’s account in detail.
After hearing this, the crowd was stunned: “Is this really true?”
“If it’s half a lie, may heaven strike me down!” the man swore to heaven.
Swallow!
Someone couldn’t help but swallow nervously, and the bustling teahouse fell silent.
If the man’s words were true, why would so many dragon race members leave the Heavenly Pool territory and head to Imperial City?Could it be that the Dragon Race is preparing for war against the human race?
Tension and worry spread among the people.
The news of the dragon race’s mass migration to Imperial City was not only known to the humans. As time passed, the news of the Dragon Race’s imminent attack on Imperial City spread far and wide.
At night, in the lobby of Qin Mansion, the family was having a meal.
Qin Feng suddenly remembered the news he had heard on his way out today and brought it up.
The Second Mother looked worried, “A few days ago, our in-law’s discussed this matter with General Lie. I was still celebrating the fact that we had moved back to Imperial City from the southern region. But now, after only a few days, someone is saying that the Dragon Race will attack Imperial City?”
Father Qin didn’t take it seriously, “These are just rumours, no one knows what the Dragon Race is really up to.”
Second Mother scolded, “With such a big matter, how dare these people spread rumours? Master, you’re always like this, you never take anything seriously!”
Qin Feng was about to add fuel to the fire when he saw the Second Mother accusing his father.
At that moment, the world shook.
A dragon roar echoed, instantly making the heads of everyone in Imperial City spin!
Liu Jianli sensed something and quickly moved out of the hall.
Qin Feng and the others quickly followed.
To the south of Imperial City, the night sky was shrouded in clouds that were even darker than the night itself.
Inside the clouds, thunder snakes were writhing and thunder dragons were roaring, as if the day of reckoning had arrived.
In an instant, a massive thunderbolt pierced the clouds and transformed into the illusion of a golden dragon coiled in the sky, with its fangs and claws bared.
The imposing aura it emitted caused everyone in Imperial City to gasp, as if a huge stone was pressing on their hearts.
The Second Mother anxiously pulled Father Qin’s sleeve, “Master, the dragon race is really going to attack Imperial City!”
Father Qin frowned slightly and patted the back of Second Mother’s hand to comfort her.
Qin Feng was extremely shocked; he couldn’t understand why the Dragon Race would do such a thing.
Suddenly, he felt something unusual in his abdomen and looked into his dantian with his spiritual sense.
The Dragon Bead was emitting a golden light, giving off intense heat.
And the temperature was getting higher and higher, gradually reaching the point of being unbearable.
In the Divine Sea, the orb of light on the Heart Questioning Platform shone with a white light, enveloping the Dragon Bead.
The golden light gradually faded away, and the intense heat disappeared.
Qin Feng breathed a sigh of relief and whispered, “Thank you, Senior Xuan, for helping me.”
However, there was no response.
On the other side, the colossal shadow of the Golden Dragon in the sky widened its eyes, instantly covering Imperial City with a dark cloud, turning into a sea of thunder, like a giant blade hanging over everyone’s heads.
The commotion was so great that Emperor Ming frowned in the palace.
How can foreigners be allowed to run wild in this majestic imperial capital, at the feet of the Emperor?
However, he also had some doubts; the relationship between the human race and the dragon race was quite delicate. Not exactly allies, but certainly not enemies.
Why would the old dragon do such a thing? Could he really be preparing for war against the human race?
As the Thunder Sea became increasingly turbulent, a stream of clear energy swept out from the top of the Grand Literature Academy’s Heavenly Tower and entered the Thunder Sea.
The Thunder Sea gradually calmed down.
The Golden Dragon Shadow, seeing this, swung its tail in the direction of the Heavenly Tower, transforming into a golden light along the way.
When this golden light fell on top of the Heavenly Tower, the giant dragon no longer existed, and was replaced by an elderly man with round, bright eyes, an imposing manner, and dressed in a yellow robe – unmistakably the transformation of the giant dragon!
And he was the very old man, the ancestor of the Azure Dragon Lineage that Cang Mu had mentioned – Cang Xuan!
Cang Xuan took the initiative and asked, “Old man, what’s the point of hiding the aura of the Dragon Bead? I know that the boy who bears my granddaughter’s Dragon Bead is in this Imperial City. How long do you think you can protect him?”
“You and I agreed on this matter, there’s no need to talk about betraying others.’ the National Teacher of Heavenly Tower replied indifferently.
“Nonsense! My granddaughter protected his life by sacrificing her Dragon Beads. After such a long time, he still hasn’t come to Heavenly Pool to find her.”
“Clearly, he wants the Dragon Bead for himself. Hand him over quickly, I want to retrieve the Dragon Bead and smash him into a thousand pieces!” Cang Xuan declared angrily.
“Heavenly Pool is a mysterious place in the world, even if he wants to find it, where can he look?”
“Don’t give me that excuse. I clearly instructed my people to tell him the method to find Heavenly Pool!”
“Are you sure?” The National Teacher of Heavenly Tower asked indifferently.
“You are too old to be able to calculate this? Cang Mu, come here!” Cang Xuan roared.
Another streak of golden light shot out from the dark clouds. The citizens of Imperial City could vaguely see a graceful figure in the golden light.
The golden light descended to the top of the Heavenly Tower and turned into a beautiful woman in a black dress. It was Cang Mu!
“Tell this old man, did you or did you not reveal the method to find the location of the Heavenly Pool to that kid back then?” Cang Xuan snorted coldly.
Cang Mu glanced at the old man, then looked at the Heavenly Tower National Teacher not far away, she blinked her eyes and said, “Grandfather, back then, I was in a hurry to take the token of affection that the child gave to my Niece to the Heavenly Pool. I forgot about it.”
Hearing this, wrinkles appeared on Cang Xuan’s face.
The scene became a little awkward for a moment.
However, Cang Xuan, who had lived for countless years, spoke again, “If he really cares, even if he doesn’t know where the Heaven Pool is, he can find it! Doesn’t he care about my granddaughter’s safety?”
“Old man, hand him over, I…”
Before he could finish, Cang Mu interrupted him prematurely, “Grandpa, I forgot to tell you. I informed the boy that Feilan is unharmed. It’s just that the Dragon Bead has separated from the body and she needs some time to recover in the Heaven Pool. He just needs to be patient.”
At this moment, Cang Xuan felt like a blazing flame being extinguished by a bucket of cold water, his anger had nowhere to go.
If he had known it would turn out like this, he might as well not have called Cang Mu here.
“You can go back now,” Cang Xuan said, turning his head.
Cang Mu didn’t respond, pretending not to hear, and moved her red lip slightly, “Since the boy is in Imperial City, Grandpa, why not take this opportunity to let Feilan marry him?”
“They are both willing, and besides, the other person has already seen Feilan’s true appearance, and the Dragon Bead has been absorbed by him. Feilan can’t marry anyone else but him.”
“Not a bad idea.” The Heavenly Tower National Teacher agreed.
