Chapter 1880
1880 The Dao King Tribe Poaching Dragons, How Dare They Do Something Like This Here
Inside the Ancient Dragon Tribe Planet, the instant the Infernal Dragon’s power appeared, all the dragons in the Dragon Tribe were filled with immense shock. A trembling fear came from their bloodline.
It was an instinctive feeling of submission toward that energy!
“What kind of dragon power was awakened just now? To think it’s causing such a powerful reaction to bloodline of every dragon on this planet. What’s going on?”
“That energy is simply too powerful.”
“Could it be that the long-lost Rainbow Dragon has appeared?”
!!
“How can it be…”
“Besides, that’s not the Rainbow Dragon’s energy.”
The dragons of the Dragon Tribe chattered among themselves. None of them seemed to have an idea what just happened.
Inside the void, a dragon sitting on a gigantic golden dragon throne said, “There’s no need to bother. Just focus on the birthday banquet preparations.”
“Understood, Dragon King.”
“This time, the Dao King Tribe will also send their representatives to the birthday banquet. The Dragon Tribe and Dao King Tribe’s alliance is at a critical juncture now. We must not become complacent.”
The Dragon Tribe elders looked at each other and could only sigh in their hearts.
However, with things the way they were, they had no choice but to accept the situation.
“I’m not sure if our alliance with the Dao King Tribe will be a blessing or a curse.”
“That’s right. The Dao King Tribe’s way of doing things is commonly known throughout the Central Heaven Universe. Having an alliance with them is nothing short of asking a tiger for its skin.”
“This is the Dragon King’s decision. We have no right to object or interfere.”
…
Meanwhile, somewhere in the universe, a warship was traveling in the vastness of space.
Standing on the warship’s deck, Chu Kuangren was acclimating to his newly-obtained Infernal Dragon’s power. There was a satisfied smile on his face.
“The Infernal Dragon’s power is quite extraordinary.”
He let out a little grin and stared into the endless stars in the sky with a hint of excitement. “Central Heaven’s Dragon Tribe, huh? Will you guys have a few surprises in store for me, I wonder?”
Several months later, thousands of kilometers away from the Ancient Dragon Tribe Planet, Chu Kuangren and Long Shuijing slowly approached their destination. Along the way, they had encountered many other forces in the universe and noticed they were heading to the Ancient Dragon Tribe Planet too.
“If I’m not mistaken, these last two years should be my father’s birthday. Those people must be going there to attend his birthday banquet,” Long Shuijing said lightly.
“Two years?”
A strange look appeared in Chu Kuangren’s eyes.
‘The Dragon King’s birthday lasts for two years?’
“From the time we’re born as eggs until the moment we hatch, this process will take several years for us dragons. Some even take decades or centuries to hatch. Hence, a two-year birthday celebration is not surpriseing. Besides, my father will always hold a birthday banquet during this time, and notable cultivators from across the universe will be invited to attend. The intention is to make friends and foster connections with them, besides displaying the Dragon Tribe’s wealth and foundations.”
Chu Kuangren was not too shocked about what he heard.
In this vast universe, anything was possible.
A two-year birthday was not a big deal either.
“It looks like we’ve arrived at the right time to attend the old Dragon King’s birthday banquet. Let’s turn this birthday banquet into a banquet to celebrate him stepping down and handing over his power!” Chu Kuangren said while looking toward the Ancient Dragon Tribe Planet.
Long Shuijing nodded gently. “That’s what I intend to do.”
Having spent several months steadying her resolve, her determination was now unwavering.
‘Father…’
‘Since you were so unkind to me, don’t blame me for being unfilial.’
‘The Dragon Tribe must be led to a brighter future.’
‘I am the most suitable person to be King!’
A look of ambition emerged in Long Shuijing’s eyes.
“The Heavens have acknowledged the look in your eyes.”
Chu Kuangren grinned a little.
Boom!
At that moment, a powerful energy fluctuation came from a planet in the distance. There seemed to be an intense battle happening over there.
“That direction seems to be…”
Long Shujing’s expression sank. “Master, I wish to go find out what’s happening.”
“We shall go, then.”
Chu Kuangren did not reject her request.
Their warship soon arrived on that planet, where a few dragons were living on it.
Right now, those dragons were hunted and captured.
The one leading the hunt was holding a black chain with barbs on one end. Once caught, the barbs would embed themselves deep inside the dragon’s shoulder bone, causing them to suffer in pain. The dragons were rendered powerless in such a situation.
“Haha! While the old Dragon King is having his birthday, let’s capture a few more of these dragons and show them off as our mounts.”
“That’s right, and after this, we can then be dragon riders Oh, that sounds so cool.”
The leader of the pack laughed while swinging his chains around, not bothered by the screams and howls of the dragons who were caught by the barbs.
There were many young dragons among them too.
However, they did not show the slightest sign of mercy. Their eyes were filled with nothing but greed at that point.
After all, a dragon’s body was basically a wealth of treasure. Living dragons could be used as mounts; a dead dragon’s scales, bones, and tendons could be used to forge weapons, while their flesh and blood could be used to refine pills or made into supplements…
“You b*stards.”
An angry female voice sounded.
A dragon whose body was as blue as water soared into the sky with tears flowing from her eyes. Then, she charged toward the group of poachers.
The cultivator, who was their leader, looked disgusted. He merely raised his hand and punched forward, sending that blue dragon flying.
“Hehe! This dragon is not bad. It has pure blood, and not to mention its beauty. It’s even a female dragon too, my favorite.”
A small skinny cultivator let out a sneaky grin as he checked out that blue dragon as if he was estimating the price of an object.
“You bunch of b*stards, my father, his royal highness, will never forgive you all,” the blue dragon said loudly.
“His royal highness?”
That skinny cultivator froze for a moment. “You’re the Dragon King’s daughter?”
“That’s right, I’m Shuiling Long, daughter of the Dragon King!” Shuiling Long said.
The poacher cultivators exchanged glances upon hearing her words.
“Haha, I didn’t expect to capture the Dragon King’s daughter here either. What a great find. Wonderful, wonderful!”
“With this, the Dao King Tribe will have another bargaining chip to suppress the Dragon Tribe. How wonderful.”
They all laughed while looking at Shuiling Long as if looking at some rare commodity.
Shuiling Long’s expression changed when she heard what they said. “I heard that Father is in talks with the Dao King Tribe about an alliance. In that case, why are you guys hunting dragons? Do you wish to go to war against us?”
“An alliance? Ha! Your dear Dragon King father was the one who begged us to form an alliance with him. As for starting a war, he doesn’t even have enough time to entertain and pamper us. Why would he even go to war against us? Just accept your fate.”
After that, the skinny cultivator tossed his chains toward Shuiling Long, wanting to capture her on the spot.
However, a rainbow-colored dragon claw emerged from nowhere.
Boom!
That black chain was torn apart and destroyed.
A cold-faced Long Shuijing appeared with chilling intent emanating from her. The Dao King Tribe’s cultivators’ expressions immediately immediately turned grim.
Shuiling Long was immediately overjoyed. “Sister Shuijing!”
Long Shuijing’s heart ached when she saw Shuiling Long’s injuries. She then looked at the Dao King Tribe cultivators, her expression even colder than before now.
“I will kill you all!”
After speaking, she raised her hands, and her dragon qi erupted.
Her terrifying power surged forward, causing the Dao King Tribe cultivators to explode into mists of blood.
None of them could do anything in the face of Long Shuijing’s power.
Meanwhile, the dragons were incredibly happy and excited to see her.
“The Dragon Maiden has returned.”
“Oh, thank the heavens! The Dragon Maiden has come to save us.”
Chu Kuangren, who was following her, soon arrived and was quite surprised. “It looks like Long Shuijing has quite a high reputation amongst her fellow dragons.”
‘This is a good thing since it means that her chances of taking the throne will be higher.’
“Sister…”
Shuiling Long turned into her human form — a delicate and petite young girl in a long blue dress. She immediately threw herself into Long Shuijing’s embrace.
“Do you know how much I’ve missed you, Sister? Where have you been all this while? I haven’t heard a single thing from you for such a long time,” Shuiling Long said with tears in her eyes.
“Your elder sister misses you a lot too.” Long Shuijing gently caressed Shuiling Long’s head in a doting manner.
She then looked at the dragon casualties around her, feeling angered and confused at the same time.
‘How dare the Dao King Tribe have the audacity to do such a thing here in the Dragon Tribe’s domain?’
