409: The three dragon kings gather at Donglong Island
Deep within the dark and empty Void Realm.
It was utterly silent here, as if light itself could not penetrate, and a monotonous solitude filled every corner.
Everywhere, wildly surging spatial turbulence emitted a terrifying and dangerous aura.
This was a place where even a Dou Zun would need to tread carefully.
Buzz!
Suddenly, a glimmer of light appeared, shining from afar.
The light was a team of several people.
Traveling here, Yao Ming felt an oppressive atmosphere everywhere.
"No wonder the Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan is the fiercest Demonic Beast clan in the Demonic Beast World. Just with this spatial turbulence, their Physical Body is constantly being tempered."
His gaze swept around, and Yao Ming secretly marveled.
This was also his first time setting foot in the Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan's territory.
"It's just ahead..."
One person pointed forward, and in the depths of the darkness, a speck of light emerged. The enormous Realm wall, as they approached, gradually revealed its vastness before everyone's eyes.
"Hoo..."
Lin Xiu exhaled a turbid breath. His injuries had disappeared, and his Qi had stabilized at the Middle Stage of a Four-star Dou Sheng.
He looked forward, "This time, all hidden dangers have been directly resolved."
...Boom boom!
A massive island floated in the Void Realm, but at this moment, there were numerous figures surrounding the island.
Whether in the sky or in the sea, fully armed figures stood everywhere.
Their attacks collided with the attacks of the island's guards, and a jumbled, chaotic sound intertwined, even more deafening than thunder.
On the outer layer, a translucent energy shield enveloped the entire island.
On that sole island, the crowd in the back looked at the scene of battle, their faces filled with anger and anxiety.
In the center of the island, there was a Dragon Hall.
"Your Majesty Dragon Emperor..."
Eight or nine figures knelt before a purple-haired woman.
Among the crowd, Hei Qing and Zhu Li were clearly present.
The Elder in front of them said, "Your Majesty Dragon Emperor, the Three Great Dragon Islands are coming aggressively, and they have set up a spatial Restriction. They were definitely well-prepared. Please prioritize the bigger picture and leave!"
"Your Majesty Dragon Emperor, prioritize the bigger picture!"
Hei Qing and Zhu Li echoed.
Standing before everyone, Zi Yan, clad in purple-gold Dragon Emperor battle armor, furrowed her delicate brows. "You don't need to say anymore. Everyone on East Dragon Island is fighting on the front lines, battling in a sea of blood. What is it for? They are here to protect me!
If I abandon them and leave now, how can I face those subjects who died for me!"
"Your Majesty Dragon Emperor, do not act impulsively!
The three Dragon Kings have joined forces and sent people to seek aid from the Heavenly Demon Phoenix Clan and the Jiuyou Diming Mang Clan. We can't even send out a message. This battle is destined to fail!
It doesn't matter if we die, but the true imperial Bloodline of the Taixu Ancient Dragon flows within you!"
The white-haired Elder pleaded bitterly.
Behind him, Hei Qing loudly said, "Your Majesty Dragon Emperor, as long as there's life, there's hope. As long as you can survive, and later join forces with Lin Xiu, you will certainly be able to reclaim the throne."
"I won't leave!"
Hearing the familiar name, a hint of sadness flashed in Zi Yan's eyes, but her delicate and mature face was filled with determination. "If all of you are gone, what's the point of me reclaiming the Dragon Emperor's position?
I will never leave today!
If I fall in battle, I believe Lin Xiu will definitely avenge me. They won't be happy for long!"
...Outside the island, above the Void Realm, three middle-aged figures stood in the Void Realm.
They simply stood there, and a domineering aura naturally emanated from them.
"Why haven't Man Yan and Qing Yan returned yet?"
The man wearing a crown frowned. He was the South Dragon King of the Taixu Ancient Dragon.
Beside him was the West Dragon King, and further on, a man with a constant smile on his face was the North Dragon King.
Hearing his question, the West Dragon King also felt a bit strange. In terms of speed, they should have returned by now.
Whether successful or not, this amount of time was sufficient.
Now they had completely surrounded East Dragon Island, but they were delaying their move because they didn't want their subordinates to suffer too many casualties.
"Should we wait any longer? Zi Yan, my niece, hasn't shown up for so long. She might have run away."
The West Dragon King worried.
The North Dragon King smiled, "Then let's make our move. If we hadn't stabilized the situation of the Ancient Dragon Clan for the past few millennia, how could the Taixu Ancient Dragon still be as strong as it is today? For Zi Yan, my niece, to so easily take our plate, there's no such good thing."
"That's natural. The Dragon Clan speaks with strength; Bloodline is secondary!"
The West Dragon King nodded.
Having tasted the freedom of being unrestrained, they now found it unacceptable to obey others, especially a young girl.
"Alright, then let's go together and meet this good niece."
The South Dragon King agreed.
The three figures immediately charged forward.
The North Dragon King was slightly slower, trailing behind the other two, watching their backs, a smile of unknown meaning flashing across his lips.
"Zi Yan, my niece, your three uncles are here. Why don't you come out and meet us?"
The South Dragon King's voice arrived before he did.
The West Dragon King's rampant laughter echoed through the Void Realm, "Zi Yan, my niece, you keep not showing your face. Could it be that you secretly ran away?"
"Nonsense!"
A beam of purple light shot out from the Dragon Hall on the island, and then Zi Yan stood in the Void Realm. She held a dark golden spear in her hand, several heads taller than herself.
Swish!
Pointing the spear tip at the three, Zi Yan's face was stern. "You three took advantage of my father's disappearance to usurp and split the Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan, making you criminals of the Ancient Dragon Clan. Now you even dare to besiege East Dragon Island!"
"The three of us also possess the imperial Bloodline. What's wrong with each of us governing our own territories? When is it a junior's turn to point fingers?!"
The West Dragon King's face was gloomy as he said coldly.
"Zi Yan, my niece, since you call yourself the Dragon Emperor, you surely don't want to see the Ancient Dragon Clan consume itself in vain. Why not take a step back? Everyone has been separated for thousands of years and is already accustomed to it. Why force everyone together?"
The North Dragon King said with a faint smile.
When Zi Yan looked at him, the expression of disgust in her eyes was the strongest. This incident was instigated by him behind the scenes.
"The true imperial Bloodline of the Taixu Ancient Dragon flows within this Emperor! If anyone should retreat, it's you guys!"
Zi Yan's delicate brows stood on end.
"It seems Zi Yan, my niece, is incorrigible."
The North Dragon King smiled lightly and looked at the other two. "Let's make our move. Once we capture Zi Yan, my niece, she will understand our painstaking efforts today when she sees the prosperity of our Ancient Dragon Clan in the future."
"Yes, let's make our move to avoid complications due to delay!"
The West Dragon King and the South Dragon King nodded in unison.
The knuckles of the hand gripping the spear were slightly white, and veins bulged beneath her fair skin.
Zi Yan looked at the three, "Bring it on! Do you really think I'd be afraid of you just because you have strength in numbers?"
Facing the trio's combined attempt, Zi Yan's face sank, but there was no hint of retreat.
Although she hadn't experienced it herself, she had learned from Lin Xiu that battle was all about resolve.
If one was timid before fighting, there was no need to fight at all.
The next second.
The four began to fight.
Zhu Li, Hei Qing, and others successively walked out of the Dragon Hall, watching the scene with worried expressions.
They had thought about making a move.
But not far away, the gazes of several figures fell upon them.
Those people were the Elders from the other three Dragon Islands, and their strength was not weak.
For example, Zhu Mu from West Dragon Island, Lieshan from South Dragon Island, and Xuan Mo from North Dragon Island were all powerhouses at the Two-star Dou Sheng Realm.
In the battle circle where everyone's gazes converged, Zi Yan, alone, faced the three Dragon Kings simultaneously, which was much more strenuous.
In just a moment, Zi Yan had already fallen into a disadvantage.
Hei Qing, watching the battle, clenched his fists and gritted his teeth. "Damn it! If we could just notify Brother Lin, His Majesty Dragon Emperor wouldn't have to face them alone!"
It was only because East Dragon Island was not strong enough, lacking sufficient foundation, that it was targeted by the other Three Great Dragon Islands, and could only watch as the Dragon Emperor was bullied.
