Chapter 2808: The Unwilling Dragon Emperor
Su Yang glanced at the Supreme Dragon Emperor: "When did you become so determined?"
The Supreme Dragon Emperor retorted: "The way you’re talking, I’ve always been determined, haven’t I? After all, I’m the last face of the Demon Beast Clan, and to this day, the Demon Beast Clan hasn’t produced a Strongest. If even I can’t advance to Strongest, what hope does the Demon Beast Clan have?"
Su Yang sighed, he could understand the feelings of the Supreme Dragon Emperor.
In fact, the Heaven Slayer had mentioned it before. Due to innate limitations, the Demon Beast Clan basically has no hope of advancing to Strongest, which is why the Guardian God has always looked down on them.
As the strongest among the Demon Beast Clan, the Supreme Dragon Emperor has cultivated to this stage, which has been extremely difficult. Within the Demon Beast Clan, it is the only one at the Heavenly Peak level, and others find it extremely challenging to cultivate to the Advanced Heavenly Realm.
The Supreme Dragon Emperor also knows about the innate limitations of the Demon Beast Clan, but it is relentless, forcing itself to cultivate further. However, being halted at the Heavenly Peak level makes it feel somewhat hopeless.
Now, it finally sees the hope of advancing to Strongest, how could it give up?
Su Yang can understand the Supreme Dragon Emperor’s feelings, and doesn’t say much more, continuing to use the Power of Earth to lead it into that region.
Once the Supreme Dragon Emperor entered, it immediately focused its mind and began to feel the Spiritual Energy in here.
However, the result this time is still the same as before; it can’t feel anything.
So, after countless years of struggling, the Supreme Dragon Emperor has entered this region at least hundreds of times, but each time without any gains, always returning injured.
Initially, the Supreme Dragon Emperor was full of ambition, but later on, even it became hopeless.
Finally, on this day, after Su Yang brought it out, the Supreme Dragon Emperor sighed: "Su Alliance Leader, I... I’ll just forget it, I won’t go in anymore. It seems my Demon Beast Clan really has no hope of advancing to Strongest. I can’t feel the Spiritual Energy that even enhances Strongest, the Demon Beast Clan truly has no hope!"
Su Yang looked at the Supreme Dragon Emperor, not knowing how to console it, and could only softly say: "No matter what, the Demon Beast Clan fights alongside us. As long as our Human Clan isn’t destroyed, we will protect the safety of the Demon Beast Clan!"
The Supreme Dragon Emperor smiled: "Su Alliance Leader, with your words, I’m much more at ease. If one day, I die in battle and cannot revive, you must take good care of those demon beasts for me!"
"Why speak of such ominous things?" Su Yang patted the Supreme Dragon Emperor’s shoulder: "Our Strongest are all enhancing their strength, soon we will be able to surpass the Guardian God in power. By then, we can defeat the Guardian God without too much sacrifice!"
"I hope so!" the Supreme Dragon Emperor sighed, and said in a low voice: "It’s been over two hundred years, and the Guardian God hasn’t made a move. Su Alliance Leader, I suspect that the Guardian God is also plotting something!"
Su Yang’s heart was stirred, as these many years he has been busy leading everyone into that region, with no time to worry about anything else.
Now, with just one sentence from the Supreme Dragon Emperor, Su Yang suddenly realized.
Yes, it’s been so long, and the Guardian God hasn’t made a move, which is a bit unusual.
According to reason, the Guardian God should send someone over to the Human Clan side from time to time to check the situation over here.
Yet, it’s been over two hundred years, and the Guardian God hasn’t come to investigate even once. There must be something wrong here.
After pondering for a moment, Su Yang immediately found the Heaven Slayer and Buddha Venerable who were now stationed outside.
After explaining his concerns to the Heaven Slayer and Buddha Venerable, they too showed serious expressions.
"You’re right, I’ve been contemplating this matter as well!" Heaven Slayer said solemnly: "It’s illogical for the Guardian God to make no move at all. I think we need to take a trip over to the Guardian God side. Since they’re not coming to investigate us, we should go see what’s going on over there!"
"If we’re going to investigate the Guardian God’s side, we need seven Strongest here to gather quickly, in order to provide timely support." Buddha Venerable said: "But they’re still in that region. It’s quite troublesome to gather them all, and then send them in, is it suitable?"
Although Su Yang can now grasp the Power of Earth needed to envelop the Strongest, the problem is that accumulating so much Power of Earth requires time.
For Su Yang to send a Strongest into that region, it takes at least half a year to accumulate the Power of Earth.
Therefore, every time the Strongest rotates, Su Yang has to spend considerable time sending them in.
Now, bringing all the Strongest out and then sending them back into that region will consume quite a bit of time. Just to investigate the Guardian God’s situation, if we don’t find anything valuable, it’ll be a waste of effort.
The Heaven Slayer furrowed his brow, and after pondering for a moment, said: "How about this, I’ll go investigate by myself."
"You alone, that’s very dangerous!" Su Yang said immediately.
"It’s not easy for them to trap me!" Heaven Slayer said: "I’m only going to investigate the situation, not to engage them directly. If I truly encounter any unexpected situations, I’ll immediately send information to the Buddha Venerable. You stay here, once you receive the message, immediately bring the other Strongest out and rush to the Guardian God’s place, there won’t be any problems!"
Su Yang thought about it, and this method seemed rather good.
"Alright, let’s do it this way!" Buddha Venerable nodded.
After discussing the signals with Heaven Slayer, he directly left, heading for the Guardian Land of the Guardian God.
Su Yang and Buddha Venerable stayed in the Chaos, with Buddha Venerable seated in the Void, spiritual power highly concentrated, mainly waiting for Heaven Slayer’s signal.
...
Guardian Land.
Currently, all Guardian Gods are gathered in this Guardian Land, with the First God and other Strongest staying here.
Heaven Slayer concealed his presence, arriving at the Guardian Land, and from afar, sensed the presence of the First God and others.
Heaven Slayer’s strength is, after all, much greater than theirs, so when he sensed them, they hadn’t detected Heaven Slayer’s arrival yet.
Heaven Slayer controlled his distance, preventing those Strongest from sensing his presence. Then, he began flying around the Guardian Land, observing the situation.
He avoided the areas where the Strongest could sense him, thus, the Strongest remained unaware of his presence.
However, by doing so, the area Heaven Slayer could reach is merely the edge of the Guardian Land, making it impossible for him to enter the core area!
