Chapter 218: Dragon Emperor's Traces
When Xiao Yun practiced his martial arts, the noise was so loud that it naturally could not be hidden from the other people on Ancient Dragon just a moment, a team of patrolling dragon guards came over and wanted to enter the attic to check.
However, before anyone could enter, they were all driven away by the domineering Zi Yan.
"This is where my Ancient Dragon Clan entertains guests. What do you want to do?"
As soon as the words fell, a brilliant purple light burst out from it, floating in the air, exerting pressure on all directions.
Faintly, you can even see a flying dragon.
"His Royal Highness the Dragon King!"
Seeing the dragon-shaped purple light, the patrolling dragon guards outside the attic were suddenly startled and half-knelt on the ground.
The pressure from the blood in their bodies made them bow their heads towards the attic, or to be more precise, towards the people in the attic.
Even the only Dou Zun among the Dragon Guards did not dare to say anything at this moment, and a look of horror flashed in his eyes.
Of course they knew that this was the place where Ancient Dragon Island entertained guests, and they also knew that this group of people were brought here by Hei Qing. The only thing they didn't know was that the only Dragon King of East Dragon Island was also here!
"Forget it, you are also doing your duty. Go tell the other dragon guards that no one is allowed to approach within a hundred feet of this place!" After a while, the indifferent voice was heard again from the attic.
"Thank you, Your Majesty the Dragon King!" Upon hearing this, the Dragon Guard responded respectfully and immediately stood up to carry out Zi Yan's order.
In the attic, Zi Yan was standing on the sofa, her face solemn, her cute big eyes, but at this moment, they were shining with a hint of purple light, making her look extremely majestic.
However, she could not maintain this majestic posture for long and returned to her original form.
"How's it going? I'm awesome!"
Listening to the little girl's speech, Medusa and the others smiled at each other and said in unison: "Great, my Dragon King."
"I didn't expect that the little brat has grown into a Dragon King after not seeing him for a few years. You are the Dragon King, so doesn't that mean your father is the Dragon Emperor?" Qinglin asked curiously.
When she heard the word "Dragon Emperor", the smile on Zi Yan's face faded slightly, but she still looked heartless.
"Yes, my father is indeed the previous Dragon King of the Taixu Ancient Dragon."
The three girls were shocked. What they had said were just some jokes, but Zi Yan actually accepted them.
The Dragon King of the Taixu Ancient Dragon, how powerful must he be? He must be at least a high-level Douluo, right?
"Then Zi Yan, your father must be very powerful, right? Do you have other brothers and sisters?"
"No." Zi Yan shook her head gently and said slowly: "My father is not that powerful either. He has been dead for a long time..."
"what?"
The Dragon King of the Taixu Ancient Dragon died? The curious expressions of Xiao Yixian and the other two turned into astonishment. Their brains were working frantically, consuming this earth-shaking news.
After a moment, Medusa was the first to come to her senses. She stretched out her arms and hugged Zi Yan in her arms.
"I'm sorry, Zi Yan, we mentioned..."
"No, Sister Medusa, I've gotten used to it after so many years." Zi Yan shook her head gently, and a smile appeared on her face again, as if to show that she was not sad.
But Medusa still didn't let go. She turned her head and looked at Xiao Yixian and the other two, and said softly, "You two should rest first. Xiao Yun's recovery will probably take quite a while. We will take turns protecting him then."
"Okay." Xiao Yixian and the other girl nodded their chins, then stepped forward to give Zi Yan a hug, then turned around and left the space to them.
……
Time passed quietly like sand through fingers, and in the blink of an eye, everyone had been on Gulong Island for a month and a half.
During this period of time, ever since Zi Yan showed her dragon power, no ignorant people came to disturb her.
Just as everyone was practicing quietly, suddenly, the vortex of energy gathered above the attic came to a halt. Immediately afterwards, a terrifying and vast aura suddenly erupted from the room and rushed straight into the sky.
In the attic, the little medical fairy who was dozing with her eyes closed opened her eyes and looked at the room where Xiao Yun was recuperating with surprise.
"This breath, Xiaoyun, have you recovered completely from your injuries..."
Just as Xiao Yixiang was surprised, Medusa and others walked out of the room with excitement and surprise on their faces.
"It's only been a month and a half, and Xiao Yun has recovered?"
When Xiao Yun first came to Ancient Dragon Island, his aura was extremely low. He looked fine, but in fact, he was no match for even a Dou Huang.
But now feeling this aura, it seems that the powerful Xiao Yun is back again.
Everyone sat cross-legged on the sofa, waiting for the boy to appear.
Inside the room, Xiao Yun closed his eyes tightly, and an aura of terror emanated from his entire body.
"Huh..." After a while, he finally opened his eyes and let out a breath.
"My dear, you seem to be recovering well..."
Just as he opened his eyes, a space crack suddenly opened in front of him, and an old man in a white robe slowly walked out of it, smiling.
The appearance of the stranger made Xiao Yun's breath become alert, but the next moment, he retracted his breath and bowed.
"My dear boy Xiao Yun, I am honored to meet you, Senior!"
Although the old man in front of him looked like an ordinary old man with a kind smile on his face, Xiao Yun did not dare to look down on him at all.
He vaguely felt an irresistible pressure from the old man.
This kind of pressure seemed to freeze his soul, but Xiao Yun was not unfamiliar with it at all. After all, he had met two old men of the same level some time ago.
Moreover, compared to the Fire Cloud Patriarch, the old man's aura was even more astonishing, which was why he quickly withdrew his aura. "The Dou Sheng strongman is so terrifying. He came to me silently. If he really wanted to kill me, it would be as easy as crushing an ant.
And this aura, isn't the great elder of Taixu Ancient Dragon in seclusion? Who is this elder?"
Xiao Yun thought so in his heart. It was absolutely impossible for him to be with Zhu Li. After all, the old man only had the strength of a Half-Saint, and was still far from being a Douluo Saint.
The old man in white robe smiled slightly, waved his hand, helped Xiao Yun up, and said calmly: "Don't be nervous, my friend, it's our first meeting. I'm Zhu Ming, the elder of Taixu Ancient Dragon."
"Candlelight?"
Xiao Yun couldn't help but twitch the corners of his eyes. Who was this hidden elder? Why couldn't he find him in his memory?
"Greetings, Senior Zhu Ming!"
"You kid, you are quite polite." Seeing that Xiao Yun was about to salute again, Elder Zhuming took the initiative to pull him up.
"Well, there aren't so many rules in the Warcraft world, and I'm not here to see you perform a ceremony."
"Please tell me, senior. If I can do it, I will not refuse!"
"Hehe..." Seeing Xiao Yun's expression, Elder Zhuming smiled and stopped forcing him. He said slowly, "I came here to thank you for bringing my princess back, and to ask you a question."
"You are from the Northwest Continent. Have you ever seen traces of other ancient Taixu dragons?"
Hearing this, Xiao Yun was slightly startled. This old man came over quietly just to ask this question.
"Senior, the Taixu Ancient Dragon you are talking about is...?"
"It's the princess's father, the Dragon King of our clan." Elder Zhuming sighed and said, "Do you know why the princess ended up in the northwest continent?"
"I..." Xiao Yun had just uttered a word, but Elder Zhuming ignored him and continued speaking.
“That’s all because of His Majesty the Dragon Emperor. Thousands of years ago, the princess had not yet been born, but as His Majesty’s only bloodline, she was doted on.
Later, His Majesty went out to look for the Dou Emperor's cave, and when he left, he took the princess with him.
For so many years, our clan had no idea of the whereabouts of Your Majesty and the princess until you brought her to Zhongzhou."
"That's why I want to ask you if you have seen other ancient Taixu dragons."
"So that's how it is." Xiao Yun took a deep breath, a look of realization appeared on his face. It was an award-winning performance without a single flaw.
"I'm sorry to disappoint you, Senior Zhuming. When I saw Zi Yan, she had already transformed. And for so many years, there has been no trace of other ancient Taixu dragons in the northwest continent."
After hearing Xiao Yun's answer, Elder Zhu Ming sighed lightly. This result was within their expectations.
Ever since they learned that Zi Yan had returned from the Northwest Continent, the Ancient Dragon Clan has explored the place several times in the past two years or so, and they were just short of searching the land from top to bottom.
If the Dragon Emperor was really there, he would have sensed it long ago due to the blood connection. Asking Xiao Yun was just an attempt to grasp at the last straw.
"Since..." Just as Elder Zhuming was about to tear open the crack and leave, Xiao Yun suddenly changed the subject.
“However, Elder Zhuming, I once heard a sound similar to a dragon’s roar in the magma world under the northwest continent, as well as an extremely terrifying pressure. I wonder if it was from His Majesty the Dragon Emperor…”
Xiao Yun sat cross-legged on the bed and revealed a little bit of information.
"Click! Click!"
Hearing his words, Elder Zhuming's figure that was about to leave suddenly stopped. Perhaps because he was too excited, even the void in front of him could not bear the weight and was directly crushed with a crisp sound.
"You...what you said is true?" He looked back at the boy in disbelief, even his voice trembling.
"If you tell even a lie, kid, you will suffer the pain of being devoured by thousands of thunders!" Xiao Yun made a swearing gesture, his eyes were extremely determined.
"Okay, okay, okay!" Elder Zhuming said three "Okay" words in a row and waved his hand to tear the space apart. This matter was extremely important and he had to go and discuss it with the other elders immediately.
"Senior, if it is really His Majesty the Dragon Emperor, you must be prepared. His Majesty must be trapped there after not coming out for a thousand years..."
"Don't worry! My friend, thank you very much! We won't be reckless in this matter!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Elder Zhuming disappeared from the room.
"Huh!" Xiao Yun breathed a sigh of relief only after he left, a smile appearing on the corner of his mouth.
He revealed the news because he had his own plans. The strength of Taixu Ancient Dragon was no less than the seven ancient tribes, but there were a large number of strong people in the tribe roaming in the void to look for Zhu Kun's trace.
Now that he and Zhu Ming have said this, the Ancient Dragon Clan will have at least a few Dou Sheng powerhouses return, greatly enhancing their strength.
In this way, Zi Yan might not have to go through a bloody battle to ascend to the throne of Dragon Emperor as in the original time and space.
"Xiao Yun, have you recovered from your injuries? What happened to the space fluctuation just now?"
Just as Xiao Yun was lost in thought, the voice of Little Medical Fairy suddenly came from outside the house. It was obvious that Elder Zhu Ming was so excited that he failed to hide his breath and was discovered by the women outside the house.
"Xian'er, it's okay. An old man came to see me just now, and he's gone now."
After walking out of the room, Xiao Yun briefly told them what happened, then turned to look at Zi Yan and asked, "Zi Yan, do you have any detoxification methods or medicinal herbs in your ancient dragon tribe?"
"Detoxification? Are you talking about the poison in Qinglin's body?" Hearing this, Zi Yan frowned slightly. During the days that Xiao Yun was in seclusion, Qinglin had already told her about this.
"That's right, it's the Emperor Python Heart-Eroding Poison!"
"There should be some in the clan..." Zi Yan lowered her head, thought for a while, and continued, "But the problem is, even if there is one in the clan, Qing Lin's body is too weak and she may not be able to use it."
"Don't worry about this, I'll take care of it!"
Xiao Yun chuckled, walked up to her and rubbed her little head. It would be great if there was a way to detoxify. If it really didn't work, he would look for a method in a book himself.
