Chapter 1398: A Grand Gift (Second update, requesting everything)

In the azure sky, an unremarkable flying carriage flew toward this side, pulled by two flying horses without a single stray hair.

Within the span of a few breaths, the flying carriage stopped in front of Li Zhangsheng.

The next moment, Luo Yuanjun was the first to step out of the carriage, and his relatives followed him out one after another, including two kings.

"Brother Li, I have arrived!"

Luo Yuanjun took a deep breath and stood before Li Zhangsheng.

His relatives hurriedly wanted to pay their respects to Li Zhangsheng, but Li Zhangsheng quickly stopped them.

"Everyone, there is no need for such formalities! Brother Luo, this is not the place to talk. Let us return first; from now on, the entire Southeast Region will be our territory."

Li Zhangsheng was very curious about how terrible the Human Emperor's mood would be when he learned the news of Luo Yuanjun defecting; the defection of the last remaining Top-tier Double-Character King under his command would definitely strike a blow to the prestige of the entire Human Emperor Faction.

At this moment, Li Zhangsheng tossed out a miniature palace, which suddenly grew larger, and immediately after, nine sub-ancestral giant dragons of different colors flew out and took the initiative to fasten the chains onto themselves.

"Please!"

Luo Yuanjun did not retreat and entered the palace side-by-side with Li Zhangsheng, and his relatives followed as well.

The next moment, the nine sub-ancestral giant dragons flapped their wings and flew toward the Imperial Capital of the Tianling Empire.

Li Zhangsheng and Luo Yuanjun arrived at the living room, where humanoid spirit beasts came to serve the two of them, while Luo Yuanjun's relatives were naturally entertained by other humanoid spirit beasts.

"Brother Li's great disturbance in Donghai this time, forcefully slaying the East Sea Dragon King, is truly eye-catching. I believe this news will soon spread across the entire continent."

Li Zhangsheng pondered for a moment and said, "Every cause has an effect. One can only blame the East Sea Dragon Clan for their perverse behavior, aiding the tyrant in killing the Spirit Emperor, and even flooding the capital of the Tianling Empire, leaving the people in misery and causing millions of humans to perish. The common people are so innocent; for such a great enmity, only by trampling the East Sea Dragon Clan can it be avenged."

"Well said."

Luo Yuanjun could only say this. To be honest, he was still a bit embarrassed; the Human Emperor and the East Sea Dragon Clan were allied, yet he himself had previously been part of the Human Emperor Faction.

"I presume Brother Luo also could not stand the Human Emperor's despicable methods, which is why you, like me at the time, abandoned darkness for light. I believe everyone will express their understanding."

Li Zhangsheng could feel that Luo Yuanjun was a bit embarrassed and hurriedly gave him a way out.

"By the way, Brother Luo, I mentioned before that I had prepared a grand gift for you."

Hearing Li Zhangsheng say this, Luo Yuanjun immediately became excited inside.

There was no helping it; Li Zhangsheng's status was set there, and the reason he abandoned darkness for light this time also included the factor of being tempted by this mysterious grand gift.

After becoming a Top-tier Double-Character King, it would be a lie to say Luo Yuanjun had no thoughts of advancing further; he felt that Li Zhangsheng's grand gift was very likely related to this.

"This grand gift consists of three parts!"

Li Zhangsheng paused for a moment, then took out a jade box and handed it to Luo Yuanjun, saying, "This is the first part!"

Luo Yuanjun took a deep breath before opening the jade box, only to see a pale cyan crystal floating slightly inside; if one observed carefully, there were some impurities of other colors inside the crystal.

This was Li Zhangsheng's last remaining Secondary Wind Rule Crystal. Originally, he wanted to give a genuine Rule Crystal, but unfortunately, he had just used them all up, leaving only this defective one.

Even so, Luo Yuanjun was still very excited; after all, such treasures that increase the probability of a Demon Pet advancing to the Demon Emperor Level were simply too rare, and for Luo Yuanjun, they were things that could be sought but not found.

At the same time, this made Luo Yuanjun look forward to the other two parts of the grand gift even more.

"This is the second part!"

Li Zhangsheng opened the Secret Realm space, reached out, and summoned a four-clawed white dragon.

This was a four-clawed white dragon only a few dozen meters long, its eyes carrying a touch of innocence, clearly not very old.

"This is an underage four-clawed white dragon!"

As Li Zhangsheng's voice fell, Luo Yuanjun looked at this underage four-clawed white dragon with excitement.

This underage four-clawed white dragon came from the East Sea Dragon Clan, though it had been an underage white flood dragon not long ago; then, after absorbing a large amount of four-clawed white dragon Spirit Essence, it successfully became a four-clawed white dragon and was then gifted to Luo Yuanjun by Li Zhangsheng.

Originally, Li Zhangsheng intended to gift an underage Baxia, but he was a bit reluctant, so he had to resort to this secondary plan. Fortunately, the Donghai campaign yielded a large amount of various Dragon Clan Spirit Essence and captured a large number of Sub-Dragons, making it easy to cultivate an underage four-clawed white dragon.

In terms of value, the underage four-clawed white dragon was naturally above the Secondary Wind Rule Crystal, as an adult four-clawed white dragon could contend with ordinary Demon Emperor Level Demon Pets, not to mention that the probability of advancing to the Demon Emperor Level was higher than that of ordinary Demon Pets.

"This is the third part!"

Before Luo Yuanjun could finish digesting everything, Li Zhangsheng handed him a Space Ring without a Soul Imprint.

Luo Yuanjun looked at Li Zhangsheng in confusion, then immersed his consciousness into the space within the ring.

Li Zhangsheng sat in the main seat with composure, watching Luo Yuanjun quietly.

After Luo Yuanjun finished looking at the items in the ring, he could not hide the smile on his face, his excitement overflowing in his expression.

This ring contained dozens of jars of Divine Beast Essence Blood, and they were perfectly matched to Luo Yuanjun's several main Demon Pets, so it was no wonder Luo Yuanjun was so excited.

As long as they absorbed this batch of Spirit Essence, all of Luo Yuanjun's several Demon Pets would evolve, and if they used this to attempt a breakthrough to the Demon Emperor Level, the probability would certainly be higher.

"Brother Luo, how is this grand gift of mine?"

"Brother Li, to tell you the truth, even though I had prepared myself in advance, this grand gift still far exceeded my expectations."

Luo Yuanjun still could not hide his excitement. Originally, he thought Li Zhangsheng would give him a treasure to assist his Demon Pets in breaking through to the Demon Emperor Level, but the weight of this grand gift far exceeded his expectations, giving him the feeling of being immersed in a dream.

Because as far as this grand gift alone was concerned, as long as he fully digested it, Luo Yuanjun would have the opportunity to possess six Demon Emperor Level Demon Pets; when the time came, as long as an Emperor position became vacant, he could directly ascend to become an Emperor. The dream was right before his eyes, so how could he not be excited?

Only at this moment did Luo Yuanjun realize that defecting to Li Zhangsheng was absolutely the most correct decision of his life.

Li Zhangsheng appeared to have paid a large amount of precious resources, but in reality, for him, apart from the Secondary Wind Rule Crystal, the rest of the resources belonged to 'renewable resources'; as long as he was given some time, he could replicate them again.

As for why he gave Luo Yuanjun such a heavy gift, it could be said to achieve four goals at once.

One, to win over Luo Yuanjun.

Two, to strengthen his own forces.

Three, to strike at the Human Emperor's forces.

Four, if another Emperor were to fall, Luo Yuanjun would have the opportunity to directly occupy the Emperor position.

It was these factors that prompted Li Zhangsheng to make such a decision.
