Unrivaled Medicine God, page 1064
The moment these words came out, everyone revealed amused looks.
Ao Xu was even happier in his heart. It was not one or two days that he had been controlling Long Xiao this group of people, he naturally had a score in his heart.
Long Xiao was a clever person. Unless his brain was damaged, he would not betray him.
Otherwise, Dragon Source Village would be completely destroyed!
Ye Yuan’s face changed and he said in surprise and anger, “Long Xiao, this isn’t what you told me previously! You … You tricked me?”
Long Xiao had an arrogant and unyielding look as he said with a cold smile, “What did I say to you previously? I don’t know what grudge you have with this lord, but even though I, Long Xiao, have killed countless people, I’ve never been someone’s pawn! You want to make use of me? No chance!”
Ye Yuan had a hesitant look and roared angrily, “Long Xiao, I’ll kill you!”
Under his rage, Ye Yuan smacked a palm out and was about to eradicate Long Xiao.
Dragon Lord lightly flicked his sleeves. A gust of strong wind blew over, directly sending Ye Yuan flying out.
“Dragon Son Ye, this Long Xiao has plagued Purpledragon Stronghold for many years. He can’t die just like this. For you to be able to capture him over, this lord is very grateful. But if you want to kill him, there’s no way. Come, men, detain Bandit Xiao and await sentencing!” Dragon Lord said coolly.
Ao Xu was incomparably delighted with himself inwardly but put on a benign appearance as he said coolly, “Dragon Son Ye, it’s all a misunderstanding between you and me. This emperor didn’t take good care of you and Long Xiaochun. It was this emperor’s blunder. This emperor … apologizes to you.”
“You … You’re really hypocritical! It was clearly you who instigated them, but now, you’re pretending to be a good person! You’re a bad guy! To think that I still trusted you so much!” Long Xiaochun said in a frenzy of rage by the side.
Ao Xu let out a sigh and said, “Forget it. Looks like the misunderstanding towards this emperor is too big. I will take my leave.”
As he spoke, Ao Xu’s figure flashed, disappearing.
Dragon Lord said coolly, “There’s a sudden turn of events today in the stronghold. The matter of setting off will be delayed for three days. Three days later, all of the dragon sons will head for Heavenly Dragon Mountain. Dragon Son Ye, you stay in the stronghold first.”
No one could have thought that things would actually develop to such a step.
Ye Yuan came in a threatening manner but became a joke in the end.
Returning to the residence, Ao Xu’s gaze glinted, and he said with a cold sneer, “Brat, you’re still ten thousand years too early to fight with this emperor! However, Long Xiao this group of people can’t be kept anymore! Something unforeseen will eventually happen with Dragon Lord keeping them.”
Chapter 2161. The Things That You Didn't Expect Are Too Many! |
Deep in the night, inside the dungeon.
A faint fragrance tunneled into the noses of the guards.
Thud!
Thud!
Very soon, they fell down one after another.
A man in black entered the dungeon seemingly like a ghost.
“Your Excellency!” When Long Xiao saw the arrival, he had a look of wild elation, directly kneeling down.
The black-clothed man nodded slowly and said coolly, “Mn, today’s performance was pretty good. Indeed you didn’t disappoint this emperor.”
Long Xiao said smugly, “Of course! That brat wanted to make use of this lowly one to deal with you, but how can this lowly one let him have his way? That brat thought himself to be clever. Wasn’t he still toyed with by us?”
This man in black was naturally none other than precisely Ao Xu!
Ao Xu’s brows furrowed slightly, and he asked, “What the hell was with you guys? With your strength, how could you be captured by that kid?”
Upon saying this, Long Xiao’s eyes immediately turned red, and he gritted his teeth and said, “Your Excellency, you have to take revenge for us! This kid, he … is too formidable. He killed … all of my brothers!”
Ao Xu’s expression changed wildly, and he said in shock and anger, “How can this be?”
Long Xiao practically recounted the events briefly with reddened eyes.
As Ao Xu listened, he was wildly shocked in his heart.
He thought that he already overestimated Ye Yuan a lot, but did not think that Ye Yuan was even more monstrous than he imagined!
This kind of horrifying spatial law attainments played Long Xiao and the rest to death.
In fact, even Long Xi, this Third Firmament Empyrean, died in the spatial collapse.
At this moment, not only did Ao Xu not regret it, he felt that his way of doing things was very correct instead.
If he let this boy grow up, how would Ao Yu matter anymore?
“This boy is truly a troublesome fellow! Alright, I’ve already put down the guards. You guys can leave! After going out, disappear for ten years. You’re not allowed to appear anymore!” Ao Xu commanded.
Long Xiao nodded his head and said, “Many thanks, Your Excellency! Then that boy …”
Ao Xu frowned and said, “Is it your turn to come and tell this emperor how to do things?”
Long Xiao was alarmed in his heart and repeatedly said that he dare not.
But he sensed a thick killing intent from Ao Xu.
Clearly, Ao Xu’s killing intent toward Ye Yuan grew even more.
Ao Xu pointed at the void, the jail door opened with a sound.
Long Xiao and the rest were overjoyed and gave a thousand thanks to Ao Xu.
“Alright, stop wasting time, if you get discovered by someone, you guys won’t be able to leave even if you wanted to anymore!” Ao Xu said impatiently.
How could Long Xiao and the rest still dare to stay? They hurriedly exited the dungeon.
At the back, a hint of a cold smile flashed across the corners of Ao Xu’s mouth. Waving his hand, he changed to the elder’s outfit that he normally wore.
Long Xiao and the rest had just gone out of Purpledragon Stronghold when suddenly, flares rose from all directions at the back, someone cried out in surprise.
The few people were frightened out of their wits, hurriedly fleeing like they were flying.
But right at this time, a horrifying aura came from behind.
“Bold Bandit Xiao, to have the audacity to break out of prison and escape, deserve to be killed!” This cry reverberated throughout the night. The entire Purpledragon Stronghold could hear it distinctly.
The faces of Long Xiao and the rest changed wildly, this voice was none other than precisely Ao Xu’s!
At this time, how could they still not understand what happened?
Ao Xu was going to do away with the witnesses!
Ao Xu did not want to let them go at all, but wanted to give himself an excuse to kill them open and aboveboard!
How powerful was the might of a Heavenly Emperor?
When Ao Xu’s palm smacked over, Long Xiao and the rest felt like the sky had fallen down.
But just as they lost all hope, a gentle force suddenly appeared, and actually blocked this strike miraculously.
Ao Xu’s expression changed wildly and he said in alarm and anger, “Who is it?”
Several figures emerged. The person at the front was precisely Dragon Lord!
Beside the dragon lord, Ye Yuan was currently looking at him with a look of amusement.
Ao Xu’s heart thumped, how could he still not know that he had fallen into a trap?
Dragon Lord stared at Ao Xu with a scorching gaze and said in a cold voice, “Ao Xu, you disappoint this lord too much!”
Ye Yuan turned to Long Xiao and said with a smile, “How about it? I didn’t lie to you guys, right? You all are merely pawns of Ao Xu! Now, you guys are useless already. You naturally don’t need to live on this earth anymore.”
Long Xiao was also a fierce and ambitious person of his generation. But at this time, his eyes were full of rage.
They toiled like slaves for Ao Xu, living life on the edge of danger, and served for so many years. What it exchanged for was actually such an outcome.
“Ao Xu, it’s been so many years, even if us brothers didn’t make any contributions, there’s also hard work! You actually struck such a vicious blow! Brother Ye told us that you’ll kill us. But I, Long Xiao, didn’t believe it. I didn’t expect that you really dealt the blow!” Long Xiao gnashed his teeth in hatred and said.
At this time, Ao Xu already passed the initial panic and hesitation. His face recovered composure, and he said with a faint smile, “You guys were merely a few dogs in my hands, isn’t your lives still up to my whims? Now, you all are already useless. So you naturally have to die!”
“You!” Long Xiao also did not think that Ao Xu was actually so shameless, directly admitting it.
Ao Xu ignored him and turned to look at Ye Yuan, saying with a smile, “I really didn’t expect it, this emperor has roamed East Suppression Pseudo World unhindered for millions of years, I actually succumbed at the hands of a brat like you who is still wet behind his ears!”
Ye Yuan smiled and said, “The things that you didn’t expect are too many, isn’t it so?”
Ao Xu’s gaze turned cold, seemingly wanting to kill Ye Yuan.
He exhausted every power of his mind and thought that having laid down an astonishing killing trap, it was absolutely impossible for Ye Yuan to escape alive.
In the end, he did not expect that not only did Ye Yuan escape, he even captured Long Xiao.
The secrets that Long Xiao grasped were too many. Once landed in Dragon Lord’s hands, he definitely would not have a good end.
Hence, he willingly braved the risks and let Long Xiao go, and then kill them.
Who would have thought that all this was within Ye Yuan’s calculations?
He schemed all his life and even included Dragon Lord in his calculations, but lost at the hands of Ye Yuan, this brat who just made his world debut!
This was the thing that he did not expect the most.
Ao Xu laughed and said with a nod, “That’s right! It was this emperor who underestimated you!
Ye Yuan smiled and said, “I originally couldn’t figure it out. I had no grudges nor enmity with you, why would you want to deal a deadly blow towards me? Only all the way until I arrived at Purpledragon Stronghold did I know that your nephew is a Son of the Heavenly Dragon too. It turns out that you took action for his sake.”
Ao Xu’s expression changed and he said with a big laugh, “Brat, what conniving cunningness you have, and what vicious means! When this emperor does something, it’s this emperor doing it. It has nothing to do with Ao Yu! Ao Zhen, I’m unconvinced! Why can you sit on the seat of a dragon lord, but I can’t!”
Done talking, the imposing aura on Ao Xu’s body suddenly erupted, and he went for Dragon Lord.
The horrifying Heavenly Emperor aura crushed until everyone could not catch their breaths.
The strike of a Heavenly Emperor in anger was too horrifying!
If the energy erupted, the entire Purpledragon Stronghold would be reduced to shambles!
Ao Zhen sighed slightly and suddenly reached his hand out and grabbed at the void.
A gentle force instantly compressed the entire space.
Ao Xu’s force was actually unable to transmit out.
Under this power, Ao Xu could not even resist and was directly eradicated.
The might of Dragon Lord was utterly horrifying!
When Ye Yuan saw this scene, he was also secretly shocked in his heart.
This was a middle-stage Heavenly Emperor powerhouse!
Initial-stage heavenly emperors were simply akin to ants in front of them! They could not even do anything in front of them!
A Heavenly Emperor powerhouse of his generation, Ao Xu, fell here!
In the darkness, Ao Yu looked at this scene with a calm expression and said coolly, “Second Uncle, you won’t die in vain! This grudge, I’ll avenge it for you!”
Chapter 2162. You have an Objection? |
Ao Xu’s demise set off a huge shock in Purpledragon Stronghold.
No one would have thought that Ao Xu was actually really the main culprit behind Bandit Xiao!
Those who were still mocking previously, the dragons who were ridiculing Ye Yuan, they were all silent and said nothing at this time.
Only at this time did they suddenly come to realize the truth that Ye Yuan did not turn angry from embarrassment at all. There was no bewilderment at all.
He really had a well-thought-out plan and dug a pit waiting for Ao Xu to jump!
A little fellow actually scammed a Heavenly Emperor to death, this kind of thing was truly inconceivable.
“Turns out that Ao Xu was really the main culprit behind Bandit Xiao, we wronged Ye Yuan!”
“Sigh, if Ao Xu really remained beyond the arm of the law, then we’d all be accessory to a tyrant’s crimes!”
“For so many years, the various major black strongholds and earth strongholds all have their entire beings shaking when mentioning Xiao. Today, everyone can finally heave a sigh in relief.”
“Yeah, we all have to thank Dragon Son Ye. He did something that even the dragon lord could not accomplish!”
… …
There were also quite a number of people who knew their error and had an appearance of lingering fear in their hearts.
But toward Ye Yuan, everyone felt quite indebted toward Ye Yuan.
These few years, in order to kill Long Xiao this group of people, Purpledragon Stronghold could be said to have suffered heavy casualties.
Ye Yuan’s action achieved the greatest good.
“Dragon Son Ye, it was all thanks to you this time, otherwise, this lord wouldn’t have known how long this traitor has been hoodwinking all of us!” Dragon Lord Ao Zhen said with clasped hands.
Ye Yuan smiled and said, “Dragon Lord, you don’t need to be like this. Actually, you also had suspicions toward Ao Xu, isn’t that so? This time, you merely pushed the boat along the current.”
Ao Xu put in painstaking effort, wanting to prop Ao Yu up to a high position.
While he could also seize this opportunity and soar to the sky with one bound, or even ascend to the position of a dragon lord.
How could Ao Zhen not know these thoughts?
It was just that he did think that Ao Xu actually concealed so deeply, colluding with wicked bandits in secret and plagued a region, causing Purpledragon Stronghold to not know peace.
And Ye Yuan’s incident this time was merely an opportunity to erupt.
Ao Zhen looked at Ye Yuan meaningfully and said with a smile, “Dragon Son Ye has a meticulous mind and outstanding talent. You’ll surely have great accomplishments in the future! The journey to Heavenly Dragon Mountain this time, this lord wishes Dragon Son Ye speedy success!”
Ye Yuan smiled and said, “I thank Dragon Lord for your auspicious blessings! Dragon Lord, this Ye has a presumptuous request. I hope that dragon lord will agree to it.”
Ao Zhen’s two eyes narrowed and he said, “You want Long Xiao?”
Talking with smart people saved energy.
Ye Yuan nodded his head, it was considered to have tacitly agreed to it.
Ao Zhen shook his head and said, “The crimes that Long Xiao has committed these few years are too numerous to be recorded! Not killing him, it will be insufficient to appease the fury of the masses!”
Ye Yuan smiled and said, “State your terms then!”
Ao Zhen laughed in spite of himself and said, “You little baby, really give people a headache! Want Long Xiao, you have to represent Purpledragon Stronghold in the Battle of Dragon Sons this time and take the top spot!”
Ye Yuan nodded his head and said, “Deal!”
Ao Zhen smiled and said, “You seem very confident.”
Ye Yuan similarly smiled and said, “Don’t you have a lot of faith in me? Otherwise, you should have said these words to Ao Yu.”
Although Ao Xu died, this did not affect Ao Yu’s status in Purpledragon Stronghold.
The level of Sons of the Heavenly Dragon was far from heaven strongholds but at the Heavenly Dragon Mountain!
To the dragon lord, their eyes were also set on the Heavenly Dragon Mountain.
That place was the Dragon Clan’s true holy land!
Ye Yuan understood Ao Zhen’s request very well.
As long as he won the top spot, Heavenly Dragon Mountain would bestow many precious resources.
At that time, Ao Zhen would have hopes of assaulting late-stage Heavenly Emperor Realm, and he would become a true major power existence.
Of course, he would also finally have the qualifications to enter Heavenly Dragon Mountain!
As for whatever Long Xiao, in the eyes of powerhouses like Ao Zhen, he was just an inconsequential crawling bug, what has his life or death got to do with him?
Although this East Suppression Pseudo World was the Dragon Clan’s territory, it was also not a land of great unity.
The Dragon Clan was indeed powerful, but if there were no conflicts and no competition, they would similarly decline.
Hence, among the various major heaven strongholds and earth strongholds, there were endless disputes too.
And Long Xiao this kind of existence was merely some flavor enhancer.
If Ao Zhen personally took action, wouldn’t capturing a puny little Long Xiao still be easily accomplished?
It was just that he was disdainful to do it.
… …
At the Heavenly Dragon Mountain, clouds coiled up, immortal qi lingering, it was not like what the mortal world should have.
Arriving at the foot of Heavenly Dragon Mountain, Ye Yuan only felt like it was like facing the Heavenspan Mountain, giving people an unfathomable feeling.
Only when one’s strength reached Seventh Firmament Heavenly Emperor and became a late-stage Heavenly Emperor supreme powerhouse did one have the qualifications to be called a Heavenly Dragon and enter Heavenly Dragon Mountain!
