Chapter 1770 - 1767: Hidden Agendas
Black Dragon Tribe:
As the leader of the Black Dragon Tribe, Ao Xiong has been feeling very frustrated lately.
The small world confining the Beast Spirit Clan was destroyed, causing his meticulously laid plans of ten thousand years to fall through.
Now, two of his trusted generals have been consecutively killed.
It’s truly a loss of soldiers and generals!
Therefore, every time he thinks of that mysterious youth named Li Chen, Ao Xiong grinds his teeth in hatred.
However, what he fears the most is not Li Chen.
Rather, it is the young Golden Dragon that Li Chen brought back!
Because of this, he always has a foreboding feeling.
It seems that the plan to seize the Dragon Clan’s dominant power must be implemented ahead of time.
Among the nine major tribes of the Dragon Clan, the strength of the Black Dragon Tribe has always been stable at the second place, only surpassed by the dominant Golden Dragon Tribe.
Moreover, ever since the mysterious disappearance of Ao Qin, the current leader of the Golden Dragon Tribe, the overall strength of the Golden Dragon Tribe has been significantly diminished.
If now the Black Dragon Tribe and the Golden Dragon Tribe were both brought out for a fair confrontation.
The final winner would very likely be the Black Dragon Tribe.
However, if the Black Dragon Tribe wishes to unify the nine major tribes of the Dragon Clan, its strength is still far from sufficient.
He still needs a strong and powerful ally!
Ao Xiong has already found this ally long ago.
It is the Sky Demon Palace Master, Sky Demon Ancestor, who has unified the Beast Spirit Clan tribes.
No time to delay, Ao Xiong sent his trusted envoy secretly to the Sky Demon Palace that very day.
The Sky Demon Palace took this matter very seriously.
They dispatched three Elders at once.
The Second Elder, named Hei Yuan, is said to have the Phoenix Bloodline within him, with a strength equivalent to that of a Human Clan’s Tribulation Crossing Third Realm.
If he reveals his true form, even Zhao Wudi, who boasts of being the top expert of the Human Clan, would retreat.
The Third Elder, named Bai Bao, specializes in speed and can instantly break through a ten thousand-fold sound barrier, very terrifying, though his strength is equivalent to the Human Clan’s Tribulation Crossing Second Realm.
Yet, within the Heavenly Domain Human Clan’s Tribulation Crossing Second Realm, there’s truly no one who can match him.
The Fifth Elder called Red Lady, is a red spider in essence, her cultivation comparable to Bai Bao. Her Earth Network is a nightmare that forever haunts those with lesser cultivation.
In the Sky Demon Palace, the top experts with cultivation above the Tribulation Crossing Realm Second Level, including the Palace Master Sky Demon Ancestor, total only seven.
Three out of the six Elders came directly, showing how highly the Sky Demon Palace values the Black Dragon Tribe’s desire to unify the Dragon Clan tribes.
That same evening, Ao Xiong met personally with the three Elders from the Sky Demon Palace.
"With the help of these three, my Black Dragon Tribe will soon unify the Dragon Clan!"
Second Elder Hei Yuan smiled and said, "In that case, let me first congratulate Clan Leader Ao Xiong!"
Red Lady, with a forced smile, said, "I hope when Clan Leader Ao Xiong becomes the Dragon Clan’s dominant power, he won’t forget the agreement with our Sky Demon Palace!"
Hearing Red Lady’s words, Ao Xiong immediately agreed, saying, "Absolutely, once my Black Dragon Tribe unifies the Dragon Clan, we will certainly assist your Sky Demon Palace in pacifying the Beast Spirit Clan and Human Clan!"
"When that time comes, your Sky Demon Palace will be the land’s dominator, our Dragon Clan the sea’s dominator, our two forces will split the Heavenly Domain!"
Hearing Ao Xiong speak so confidently, Red Lady, Hei Yuan, and Bai Bao exchanged glances and couldn’t help but laugh heartily.
"Very well, but I wonder how Clan Leader Ao Xiong plans for us to assist?"
Ao Xiong pondered for a moment and said, "You may not know, but our Dragon Clan’s nine major tribes convene an alliance conference every five hundred years."
"It has been five hundred years since the last Dragon Clan alliance conference; the new conference is about to be held, and this is my chance to gain control over the entire Dragon Clan!"
When Ao Xiong said this, Hei Yuan, Bai Bao, and Red Lady exchanged a look.
After a moment of silence, Hei Yuan asked, "Is this Dragon Clan alliance conference still held at the Golden Dragon Tribe?"
Ao Xiong nodded and responded, "Yes, but after this, it should be held at our Black Dragon Tribe!"
Seeing Ao Xiong talk so confidently, Hei Yuan, Bai Bao, and Red Lady couldn’t help but laugh heartily.
After returning to their residence, Bai Bao broke the silence and asked, "Hei Yuan, do we really help Ao Xiong unify the Dragon Clan tribes? If he goes back on his word and rips the agreement, we’ll have worked for nothing!"
Hei Yuan’s dark green beast eyes instantly showed a cold gleam.
"If Ao Xiong dares do that, then he’s lived long enough!"
"Besides, now that the Dragon Clan is split, it’s an opportunity for Ao Xiong and also for our Beast Spirit Clan!"
Hearing Hei Yuan’s words, Bai Bao and Red Lady exchanged a glance.
Then, both of them asked in unison, "What opportunity?"
Hei Yuan, with a cold smile, said vehemently, "The opportunity to capture all Dragon Clan experts in one fell swoop!"
Bai Bao and Red Lady, hearing this, were taken aback.
Clearly, they still hadn’t understood.
How can the Dragon Clan experts be caught in one fell swoop?
Hei Yuan glanced around, ensured everything was safe, and then lowered his voice, cautiously saying, "Ao Xiong rising, to become the dominant power of the Dragon Clan’s nine major tribes, lacks legitimacy. Dragon Clan’s other tribes will certainly not submit."
"If he wants the other eight Dragon Clan tribes to submit, he must use some means. Moreover, just last night, I secretly handed over the Divine Medicine Dragon Transformation Powder, developed by the Palace Master, to him."
Hearing the three words "Dragon Transformation Powder," Bai Bao and Red Lady couldn’t help but brighten their eyes.
Dragon Transformation Powder is a Divine Medicine specifically developed by their Sky Demon Palace to deal with the Dragon Clan.
Once ingested, if an antidote is not received within two hours, the Dragon Soul within these Dragon Clan Powers will melt rapidly like an iceberg under high temperatures.
Moreover, this medicine powder is colorless and tasteless, very difficult to detect.
If all these Dragon Clan Powers were to ingest Dragon Transformation Powder, no matter how formidable their cultivation, it would be of no avail.
At that time, they would no longer be lofty dragons, but crawling worms that could be easily bullied.
The Sky Demon Palace and the Black Dragon Tribe each have their own plans.
Meanwhile, the preparations for the Dragon Clan alliance conference are underway with great fervor.
In the vast sea, there is a mantis shrimp riding the waves.
On the mantis shrimp’s back, there are two silhouettes.
One sitting, one standing!
The person sitting is the Dragon Girl Caiyue.
She sits cross-legged, bare-footed, one hand supporting her chin, occasionally casting a glance at the mysterious Human Clan youth in front of her.
The standing person, naturally, is Li Chen.
Li Chen stands with hands behind his back, quietly gazing forward.
He feels that the current sea is too calm.
So calm that it’s somewhat abnormal!
Vaguely, he has a feeling.
A storm capable of overturning the entire Heavenly Domain is about to arrive!
