Chapter 99: Old Dragon Emperor: Who Exactly Is He? Yun Yun: Starfall Pavilion Alliance?

~8 min read 1,519 words

"Greetings, Old Dragon Emperor!"

Zhu Li knelt on one knee, his head bowed low, his tone filled with reverence and excitement.

By now he had already guessed the identity of the man before him.

He never could have imagined that the Old Dragon Emperor, missing for many years in legend, was actually standing alive before his eyes at this moment.

At this moment, he felt incomparably proud.

East Dragon Island's persistence had finally been rewarded!

Even more, the Old Dragon Emperor only needed to wave his arm upon his return, and the Three Dragon Kings would have no choice but to obediently return under the Old Dragon Emperor's command to beg forgiveness.

"Rise."

Zhu Kun raised his hand slightly, looking at Zhu Li with a gentle gaze.

"You managed to protect my daughter; that counts as merit."

"So many years have passed, and I also don't know the situation of our Ancient Void Dragon Clan."

He let out a light sigh, scanning the dark, silent space around him, "Tell me, what has the Dragon Clan become now."

Zhu Kun's voice was low, yet still carried a trace of the prestige a Dragon Emperor should have.

"Alas..."

Zhu Li slowly stood up, his expression grave.

His lips trembled as he slowly said, "Old Dragon Emperor, the Dragon Clan has long since fallen apart."

"The Three Dragon Kings are ambitious, each occupying a territory, splitting the originally united Dragon Clan into utter chaos."

"East Dragon Island, originally the only force still revering the Dragon Emperor Lineage, was also besieged by the Three Dragon Kings not long ago."

As Zhu Li spoke, he clenched his fists tight, his eyes full of indignation.

"What?"

Zhu Kun's eyes suddenly widened, rage flaring up in them.

His body trembled slightly, clearly angered greatly.

"The three of them actually committed such a treasonous act! Splitting the Dragon Clan... and daring to attack their own clan brothers!!"

An extremely terrifying pressure instantly erupted uncontrollably from the Old Dragon Emperor Zhu Kun.

Although it was not directed at Zhu Li and Zi Yan, those terrifying ripples that nearly condensed into substance still left them with lingering fear.

Zi Yan, at the side, also recalled the peril of the East Dragon Island battle, "Father, during this East Dragon Island battle, if not for that mysterious senior acting to save us, your daughter would probably have already..."

Speaking to this point, a trace of lingering fear flashed in Zi Yan's eyes.

Zhu Kun looked at Zi Yan, his gaze turning gentle and loving again.

He gently took Zi Yan's hand.

"Child, you have suffered."

"Right, I still haven't asked your name..."

"I am called Zi Yan."

"Zi Yan? That is a good name."

A faint smile appeared on Zhu Kun's face, then he stroked Zi Yan's head, his eyes full of doting love for his daughter.

"Zi Yan, you still haven't said, who exactly told you I was here?"

Zhu Kun had been in this space for so many years already, and absolutely no one had come.

By rights, no one should know he was here.

"It is like this..."

"At the time, the Third Elder and I were still being hunted by people from the other Three Great Dragon Islands, and then we went to the edge of the Void Thunder Pond..."

Zi Yan now recounted in full detail, one by one, the events of the Three Dragon Kings besieging East Dragon Island not long ago, her being saved by a mysterious senior at the critical moment of life and death, and being instantly transmitted here.

As she spoke, she tried hard to recall every detail.

After hearing this, Zhu Kun's brows knitted tightly together.

This account instead made him even more puzzled.

Because these characteristics did not quite match any of the Strongmen he knew.

He could not guess the other party's identity.

"Using thunder... could it be someone from the Thunder Clan?"

"But the Thunder Clan has always kept a low profile; why would they suddenly interfere in Dragon Clan affairs?"

Zhu Kun looked at Zi Yan, "What is his purpose?"

"The senior only said to wait until the time comes and have me do one thing, but didn't say what it was..."

In Zi Yan's mind, she was still thinking of Yun Yi's words before the transmission.

"The situation was urgent at the time, I also didn't have time to ask more."

"Hope he doesn't have any schemes!"

Zhu Kun's expression was slightly stern, a cold glint flashing in his eyes.

He is no easy mark.

If there is a favor, he will repay it.

But having lived so many years, he doesn't believe there would be such an unearned kindness; the other party definitely has some scheme.

It's just not clear yet.

"Father, how can you get out..."

At this moment, with her father, her heart also seemed to have a pillar of support.

She knew, future Dragon Clan matters would no longer be faced by her alone.

But right now, the most important thing is how to get Father out of here.

Zhu Kun sighed softly, a hint of helplessness flashing in his eyes.

"We need to find the Tuoshe Ancient Emperor Jade."

"Only with it can I leave this place that has imprisoned me for so many years."

"Old Dragon Emperor, that thing was obtained by the Xiao Clan's clan leader a thousand years ago."

"But now it has already been split into eight parts, scattered among the Ancient Eight Clans."

"Gathering them all is harder than ascending to heaven……"

Zhu Li shook her head just as helplessly.

The strength of the Ancient Eight Clans ran deep in every one of them; wanting to seize the fragments of the Tuoshe Ancient Emperor Jade from their hands was easier said than done.

Listening to Zhu Li's words, Zhu Kun's expression turned somewhat grim.

Fighting the Eight Ancient Clans all at once, even he had little confidence.

Not to mention the current Dragon Clan, divided and fragmented, its strength far from what it once was.

"Father, no matter how difficult……"

Zi Yan clenched her fists tightly. "We will definitely find a way to gather the Tuoshe Ancient Emperor Jade and rescue you. I won't let you be trapped here again."

Hearing Zi Yan's words, Zhu Kun felt a surge of comfort in his heart.

"Good child, having this heart is enough."

As he spoke, Zhu Kun circulated the battle qi throughout his body, forcing out a drop of purple-gold blood from within.

The moment this drop of blood appeared, it emitted an aura so powerful it was suffocating.

The surrounding space trembled as a result.

"Zi Yan, Father cannot go out to protect you now."

"This drop of essence blood is enough for you to break through to Dou Sheng."

"That way you will have more power to protect yourself."

Zhu Kun handed the essence blood to Zi Yan, his eyes full of expectation.

"When Father can leave this damned place, I will properly make up for all the grievances you've suffered these many years……"

Only to see that drop of purple-gold blood merge into Zi Yan's body, and her body immediately erupted with extremely intense energy fluctuations.

"Father……"

Zi Yan took a deep breath, immediately sat cross-legged where she was, and began refining!

……

Flower Sect.

Yun Yun, Qing Xianzi, and Hua Xianzi gathered in a spacious and bright hall.

The hall was decorated elegantly, with various rare flowers placed around, emitting a faint fragrance.

Several paintings with profound artistic conception hung on the walls, adding a touch of elegance to the hall.

But at this moment, the expressions of the three people in the hall were not too good, and the atmosphere was somewhat oppressive.

During this period, Tian Ming Sect had been restless, constantly targeting the Flower Sect's power, with small tricks occurring frequently.

Moreover, they had united with the Ice River Valley and many other forces to form an alliance, called the Ming He Alliance, and were aggressively preparing to attack Starfall Pavilion.

Behind this Ming He Alliance, there was faintly the shadow of Soul Hall.

In this situation, the Flower Sect also felt unprecedented pressure.

A Tudi hurriedly walked into the hall.

His steps were hurried, holding a letter in his hand, his expression somewhat nervous.

He came before Yun Yun, respectfully kneeling on one knee, "Sect Master, Starfall Pavilion has sent a letter!"

Yun Yun had already become the Sect Master at this time, taking over all affairs of the Flower Sect.

She hurriedly took the letter at this moment and quickly unfolded it to look.

As her gaze moved across the letter paper, her brows furrowed slightly.

After reading it, she gently placed the letter on the table, her expression somewhat uncertain.

"Starfall Pavilion wants to form an alliance with the Flower Sect……"

"To jointly resist the Ming He Alliance of Ice River Valley and Tian Ming Sect."

Qing Xianzi and Hua Xianzi glanced at each other.

"Sect Master, what do you think?"

Although the two had higher seniority, they now completely followed Yun Yun's opinion.
