75: Chapter 75: Alliance Formed in Four Regions! The Black Dragon King's Grief Over the Loss of His Son!

"Everyone, I have only heard of this."

Although Withered Ghost's tone was certain, he still left himself some leeway:

"After all, the god transformation fruit tree has always been a closely guarded treasure controlled jointly by the Sword Pavilion and the Jade Pool Palace. Although we have reached the Soul Transformation Realm, we still cannot touch their core secrets."

But both Ao Cangyue and Tu Shan Ya were exceptionally intelligent, and after a little deduction, they knew this was the most likely possibility.

Otherwise, why would the Central Continent go to such great lengths to Seal the Four Lands?

"Thank you for your honesty, Senior."

Ao Cangyue stood up and bowed respectfully to Withered Ghost.

Then, she scanned the room, her voice heavy:

"We have been trapped in the Four Lands for nearly ten thousand years; who knows when we will finally see the light of day again."

"Moreover, in another year, the Central Continent's seed harvesting will descend once again."

"Everyone, how shall we respond?"

The great hall fell silent.

Although the Human Race of the Central Continent had committed every evil deed and treated them like pigs being raised for slaughter, their strength was undeniable.

They could get away with lording over the Four Lands, but facing a behemoth like the Central Continent was akin to throwing an egg against a rock.

"This time, I fear that the once-in-a-millennium Prodigies of every race will be unable to escape their doom."

As soon as these words were spoken, the expressions of Ao Tingxin, Tu Shan Ya, Shen Luoyu, and the others shifted slightly.

They were all the top talents of their respective races and were undoubtedly on the "harvesting list."

"My Dragon Clan will be the first to declare our stance!"

Ao Cangyue took a deep breath and spoke with resounding force:

"I am willing to unite the strength of the Four Lands to resist the Central Continent! Even if it means death and the dissipation of our Dao, we will never sit still and wait for our demise!"

She looked at Ao Tingxin beside her, her eyes filled with maternal determination.

Back then, she hadn't been able to persuade her nephew Ao Lin, but this time, she absolutely could not let her daughter follow in his footsteps!

A moment later.

"The Yao Race agrees to the alliance."

Tu Shan Ya stood up abruptly, her voice laced with Killing Intent: "The grievances of the Yao Race must be avenged!"

"What about the Southern Region?" Ao Cangyue looked at Su Feng.

Su Feng didn't speak; he turned his head to look at the two Elders of the Yin Yang Sect behind him and raised an eyebrow: "Aren't you two going to say anything?"

"Σ(⊙▽⊙

a!!"

The two Elders were startled and hurriedly stood up, bowing respectfully toward Su Feng:

"We dare not! We dare not! This matter is entirely up to the Head of the Su Family to decide! Upon returning, we will explain it to our Sect Master; there will be no objections!"

Are you kidding me!

This gentleman was a ruthless person capable of severing seventy percent of the Law with a sword, someone who even dared to dismantle the Dragon Palace! How could they dare to have any objections?

"Since that is the case..."

Su Feng nodded, but he didn't agree immediately. Instead, he asked a crucial question:

"Dragon King, please enlighten me. What exactly is the Realm of the people coming from the Central Continent?"

Ao Cangyue's expression was grave as she spat out four words:

"Half-step Spirit Transformation!"

"How do they compare to you?"

Ao Cangyue pondered for a moment before saying bitterly: "They are only stronger, not weaker!"

"Hiss~~~"

Everyone gasped again.

Who was the Dragon Mother?

She was recognized as the strongest person in the entire Four Lands!

A peerless expert who had comprehended ninety percent of the Law!

If even she felt inferior, then just how exaggerated were the people coming from the Central Continent?

"Everyone, it is not that our talent is weak!"

Ao Cangyue explained:

"The reason they are strong is that the Central Continent has no Seal of heaven and earth, and their Law is in a state of Perfection! Their Cultivation Technique grades are all above the Earth Rank, and they even possess legendary Heaven Rank Cultivation Techniques!"

A feeling of despair spread once more.

"However..." Ao Cangyue changed the subject and waved her hand:

"To prove the Dragon Clan's determination, and to enhance everyone's combat power, I have decided to make all the Cultivation Techniques, combat skills, and rare texts collected by the Dragon Palace over these ten thousand years freely available!"

"All allies may read them!"

"Whoa—!!"

The entire hall was in an uproar.

Even Dracula, who had been uninterested all along, turned red-eyed, his breathing becoming rapid. That was the collection of the Dragon Clan!

"Generous!"

Su Feng gave a thumbs up: "Since the Dragon King is so magnanimous, then my Su Family... is willing to join the alliance!"

"The Southern Region is willing to join the alliance!" Shen Luoyu followed closely behind.

Su Feng glanced at her but said nothing; if the Yin Yang Sect nodded, it wouldn't make much difference from the Southern Region nodding.

"My Ghost Race is willing to..." Dracula had just started to speak.

"Wait a moment!!"

A voice filled with rage and resentment abruptly interrupted the lively atmosphere.

Everyone looked toward the source of the sound.

It was none other than the Black Dragon King—Black Dragon King!

His eyes were blood-red, staring fixedly at Ao Cangyue, his entire Aura violent, as if he might lose control at any moment.

"Sister, did you... know long ago what the Central Continent comes here to do every hundred years?"

Ao Cangyue's beautiful willow-leaf eyebrows furrowed slightly; she knew what the Black Dragon King meant, and her heart ached:

"Before, it was just a guess, but now... it is confirmed."

"Heh... hehe..."

The Black Dragon King laughed miserably, his voice growing cold and carrying a heartbreaking despair:

"It was only when my Son died that you became certain, right?"

"Black Dragon King! I warned you about the Son long ago!" Ao Cangyue said sternly.

"Back then, the envoy from the Central Continent did not force him to leave; they let him choose for himself! It was he who, in pursuit of the stars and the sea..."

"Shut up!!"

The Black Dragon King completely erupted, his rationality replaced by rage:

"If you had told me these guesses back then! How could I have possibly agreed to let him go to the Central Continent!!"

"That was my Son! The only Bloodline I condensed by exhausting a thousand years of cultivation!"

"You are willing to pay any price for Ting Xin! But what about me?! What about my Son?! Did he deserve to go and die?!"

"Black Dragon King..." Ao Cangyue looked at her brother, who was nearly insane, her own eyes reddening.

"I didn't expect it either..."

"Didn't expect it? Is that all it takes? Just a 'didn't expect it'?"

The Black Dragon King pointed at Ao Cangyue's nose, his finger trembling:

"You were simply using my Son to test for errors! You wanted to see if the Central Continent was a trap! Now the result is out, are you satisfied?!"

The great hall was deathly silent.

This was a family feud, and also an irreconcilable tragedy.

Just as the situation was about to spiral out of control.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

An untimely yet exceptionally crisp knocking sound suddenly rang out.

Su Feng lazily tapped on the jade table in front of him, breaking the heavy atmosphere:

"I say, haven't you chosen the wrong target for your revenge?"

"Every grievance has its source, and every debt has its debtor. It was that group from the Central Continent who killed your Son, and it was also them who tricked your Son into going to his death. Why are you acting crazy at your sister instead of venting your anger on the Central Continent?"

"Get lost!!"

The Black Dragon King, who was in the heat of his anger, turned his head sharply and glared at Su Feng with Killing Intent, his Half-step Spirit Transformation Aura pressing down like a physical force.

Su Feng raised an eyebrow and didn't waste any words.

He flipped his palm.

"Hum—!"

A jet-black god slaying sword, exuding a monstrous Aura of ferocity, appeared out of thin air and hovered beside him.

On the sword's edge, the Law of Destruction flowed; merely a trace of the Aura leaking out caused the surrounding space to begin collapsing.

"Uh..."

The moment the Black Dragon King saw the god slaying sword, his originally violent Aura instantly deflated like a punctured balloon.

His expression shifted several times, and finally, he forcibly swallowed that foul breath, his tone instantly becoming much more "rational":

"Hmph! This is our family business! It has nothing to do with you!!"

After Su Feng's intervention, the previously tense atmosphere instantly dissipated for the most part.

Ao Cangyue looked at Su Feng gratefully, then took a deep breath, regaining the dignity and responsibility that a Dragon King should have.

She looked at the Black Dragon King's back, her voice firm:

"Brother, I have responsibility for what happened to the Son."

"I promise you. One year from now, if I encounter the group of people from the Central Continent who took the Son away back then... I am willing to burn my Dragon Pearl and fight with my life to avenge the Son!"

The Black Dragon King was not unaware of the truth, nor did he truly hate his sister.

He simply did not want to accept that cruel reality and needed an outlet for his emotions.

His only Son had died; this was a pain in his heart that would never heal.

"There is no need!"

The Black Dragon King stood with his back to everyone, his voice hoarse but stubborn:

"The Son's revenge! I will take it myself! I don't need your hypocrisy!"

After saying this, he coldly snorted, turned into a streak of black light, and left the great hall without looking back.
