Chapter 445: The Dragon Emperor's Test
“I’m willing to be your mount instead.”
This sentence shocked Ji Dong's mind. The Dragon Emperor actually gave such powerful conditions in order to allow Moutai and Wuliangye to escape from his bloodline and truly stay in Dragon Valley as the emperor.
Dragon Emperor is a mount? What is this? Dragon Emperor is not just a saint-level powerhouse, but also the leader of thousands of dragons. Whether it is a real giant dragon or a much weaker earth dragon, he is just a minister in front of it. Dragon Emperor is not a chrysanthemum pig. Ji Dong has witnessed its power with his own eyes just now. Although there may be a gap with the ancestor of the earth dragon, who can fully know what secret skills it has as the emperor of the dragon clan? What's more, with its identity, it must be a promise of a thousand gold. After becoming its mount partner, it will definitely help itself with all its strength. This temptation is too great for anyone.
However, this sentence also shows the Dragon Emperor's determination to keep Moutai and Wuliangye. It has already been at its own expense and will never be allowed to refuse.
What to do? Ji Dong's heart is unprecedentedly conflicted. From the perspective of reuniting the Dragon Emperor's family, Moutai and Wuliangye should of course be left behind. The Dragon Emperor and the Fire Dragon King will definitely treat them like pearls in their palms. In the entire Dragon Clan, they have a supreme position.
However, since their birth, they have almost all followed Ji Dong except for the year after Lieyan died. Ji Dong treated them as his sister, not monsters. Bloodlines and souls are connected, and he really can't bear to leave Maotai and Wuliangye forgot about himself.
When the Dragon Emperor saw Ji Dong silent, he thought he had been attracted by the conditions he gave, and said in a deep voice: "As long as you agree, I can swear with the safety of the Dragon Clan, and always be your mount and be by your side in your lifetime. How about it?"
Ji Dong took a deep breath and gritted his teeth, as if he had decided something, "I promise you." He said these four simple words, but seemed to have used all his strength. His face looked a little pale.
Chen Sixuan, who was standing beside Ji Dong, her pupils instantly contracted, and her eyes clearly showed a little disappointment. Could it be that the man she loved could not control in the face of huge benefits?
Just when Chen Sixuan was in a state of confusion, Ji Dong continued, "Senior Dragon Emperor, I promise you to let Moutai and Wuliangye stay. If it does not harm them, I agree to take back my bloodline and connect it with their souls. However, I don't need you to be my mount, and I don't need to swear. The reason I return them to you is because they are your children and the hope of the dragon clan's future. If I make you my monster partner, wouldn't you trade with them? Regardless of whether they remember me in the future, I will never allow anyone to trade them."
Ji Dong said this firmly, and the Dragon Emperor's eyes, which had been relaxed, suddenly tightened. He stared at Ji Dong, and his unconcealed appreciation arose.
"No, I don't agree." At this moment, Chen Sixuan, who was standing beside Ji Dong, suddenly spoke, and this opening shocked Ji Dong and the Dragon Emperor at the same time.
"Teacher Ji Dong, I don't agree with you to return Moutai and Wuliangye to the Dragon Clan." Chen Sixuan was obviously excited. Even when facing the Dragon Emperor, her eyes were not allowed at all. Although she was no longer the Queen of Flame, the Queen of Flame's arrogance did not disappear. Even when facing the five giants in the God Realm, she was not even more cowardly, let alone facing the Dragon Emperor.
Ji Dong looked at her and couldn't help but frown. Although he didn't think long, how difficult it would be for him to agree to keep Moutai and Wuliangye? This decision would be made! At this time, Chen Sixuan's sudden stop would undoubtedly shake his determination, not to mention that he didn't think Chen Sixuan had any reason to stop him.
Chen Sixuan said: "Teacher Ji Dong, if I remember correctly, you once said that Moutai and Wuliangye were hatched together with the Flame Queen. I would like to ask you, during this incubation process, is it that you paid more or the Flame Queen paid more?"
When it comes to Lieyan, Ji Dong did not hesitate at all and immediately replied: "Of course, Lieyan paid a lot. Lieyan protected Maotai and Wuliangye almost every day, and in the process of resurrecting them, he even used his natal red lotus seeds. He also used his magic to help them eliminate cold poison every day. Compared with Lieyan, what I paid was only tiny."
Chen Sixuan nodded and said loudly: "Since that's the case, the Queen of Flames has paid more than you in hatching the Dayan Holy Fire Dragon. So, what qualifications do you have to return them to the Dragon Clan? Have you ever asked the Queen of Flames to give them back? Have you ever thought about why the Queen of Flames hatched Maotai and Wuliangye so hard. Could it be that she has relied on or had a good impression of the Dragon Clan? You certainly didn't. You said that she is a god, so how could she ask for the Dragon Clan? Then why did she do that? There is only one reason, it's for you. Haven't you said that you love her so much? In a sense, Moutai and Wuliangye can be regarded as a gift she gave to you. You just sent the Dayan Holy Fire Dragon she gave to you back to the Dragon Clan. Are you worthy of the Queen of Flames' deep affection for you?"
Chen Sixuan spoke very quickly and was very excited. Ji Dong was speechless by her words. Lieyan’s smile at him almost immediately appeared in his mind. Listening to Chen Sixuan’s words, he seemed to see Lieyan’s blame for him. For a moment, the expression on his face suddenly changed.
Chen Sixuan gasped for a few moments and continued, "Also, do you think that the happiest thing for Maotai and Wuliangye to return to the Dragon Clan is just your own wishful thinking. Have you ever asked them what kind of life they most want to live, whether to follow you or stay in Dragon Valley?"
"Retrieve bloodlines? It's simple to say. Is it really that easy to do? The dragon clan has such a long lifespan, and human lifespan is relatively short. Why can't you wait a hundred years before you let Moutai and Wuliangye return willingly? Why do you have to take the risk of retrieving bloodlines and eliminating their memories? Is this fair to them?"
Ji Dong's gaze gradually returned to normal, he looked at Chen Sixuan and said lightly: "You seem to know a lot."
Chen Sixuan was also looking at him, her eyes shining with deep affection in regret. Dayan Holy Fire Dragon was left to Ji Dong when she was still a flame. Now it was finally difficult for Dayan Holy Fire Dragon to grow up gradually, and with the ability to stand alone, he could protect Ji Dong and help Ji Dong. Now the Dragon Emperor wants to return the Dayan Holy Fire Dragon to the Dragon Clan. She really couldn't accept it in her heart. As for what the Dragon Emperor said to be Ji Dong's monster companion, she didn't think much about it, because she knew Ji Dong too much. With the relationship between Ji Dong and the Dayan Holy Fire Dragon, he would not be able to use this as a exchange condition. Ji Dong's opponent to face in the future
How powerful is Chen Sixuan, Chen Sixuan is very clear that the strength of the Earth Dragon Ancestor is strong enough, right? It can only use the power of the three systems. It is the result of years of accumulation. Before the Dark Heavenly Secret devoured the Four Sacred Beasts, the Earth Dragon Ancestor was indeed the first person below the God level. Even the Fire King and the Dark Flame Demon King in the Earth Center World were not its opponents. However, the Dark Heavenly Secret completed the devouring of the Four Sacred Beasts and already had four major attributes. After this period of absorption and assimilation, its strength must be above the Earth Dragon Ancestor, which is the strength that has truly touched the edge of the God Realm but can never enter the God Realm.
With Ji Dong's tough personality, Dark Heavenly Miles can be said to be the culprit that led to the death of Lie Yan, and he will face it sooner or later. Although Ji Dong has the holy level talent, his current strength is still far from the holy level. It is almost a dream to defeat Dark Heavenly Miles in less than four years. What's more, the Dark Heavenly Stems Saints have all the top ten artifacts, and in five years, their overall strength will surely be raised to another level. Dark Heavenly Miles completely ruled the entire Dark Five Elements Continent and could mobilize the power of the entire Dark Five Elements Continent, while the Light Five Elements Continent is divided into five countries. No matter how you look at it, when the Red Lotus Heavenly Fire disappears, the Light Five Elements Continent will not have any advantage. In this case, Ji Dong needs the help of the Great Yan Holy Fire Dragon.
The painful expression gradually dissipated from Ji Dong's eyes, and his fists subconsciously tightened, "Sixuan, you are right. The Dayan Holy Fire Dragon was left to me by Lieyan. But in the near future, when I avenge Lieyan, I still have to find Lieyan. At that time, what should Maotai and Wuliangye do? Before I leave this world, I must find them a good destination. What's more, Senior Dragon Emperor has always been in a negotiated tone. In fact, if it makes up its mind to cut off the relationship between me and Maotai and Wuliangye, with the strength of Senior Dragon Emperor's holy level, as long as I kill me, the bloodline and soul connection will naturally be cut off. As for how to eliminate the memories of Moutai and Wuliangye, I believe that Senior Dragon Emperor has a way. With my strength, I believe that it is not difficult to find a partner in the Dragon Valley in the best of both worlds. You don't have to say anything more, I have decided."
In fact, Ji Dong was not willing to separate from the Dayan Holy Fire Dragon. With his personality, if he only came with Maotai and Wuliangye, he would definitely argue with the Dragon Emperor, and at least he would strive to be with the Dayan Holy Fire Dragon before he died. However, he is not alone now. He came here with all the saints of the Heavenly Stems. As the leader, what he had to consider was no longer his own business. Once he angered the Dragon Emperor, let alone the saints of the Heavenly Stems will get it.
It is a question whether the Dragon Clan can safely get out from here without being a partner in the monster. Therefore, after he understood the meaning of the Dragon Emperor, he weighed the pros and cons. He made the final choice. Ji Dong, who was a human being for two lifetimes, even if his personality is impulsive, he would consider things more profoundly than Chen Sixuan. Since Lieyan died, he has no longer been as impulsive as before. In addition to occasionally going crazy during battles, he would start when he was absolutely sure.
Papapapapapapa, just after Ji Dong finished saying this, the Dragon Emperor suddenly applauded him, and Ji Dong and Chen Sixuan couldn't help but look at it. The Dragon Emperor had a faint smile on his face and said, "It's worthy of being the Heavenly Stem Holy King of this generation. His mind and wisdom are the best choices. I just don't know how strong you are. You just said that you can only live for another ten years, and I don't have to wait for these ten years. However, there are two things you have to do, and I will allow you to return my children to the dragon clan ten years later. The first thing is that you must guarantee me their safety. Second, you have to prove to me that you have the ability to protect it. If your strength is not as good as my child, then you are not qualified to be its partner. Do you understand? Ji Dong."
Ji Dong looked at the Dragon Emperor in surprise. He didn't expect that the Dragon Emperor's attitude would suddenly change at this time. He narrowed his eyes slightly, took a deep breath, and said, "Senior Dragon Emperor, thank you for giving me a chance. Please give me advice."
A look of suddenness appeared in Chen Sixuan's eyes. She looked at the Dragon Emperor and understood something in her heart. Instead, she retreated far away, leaving the space to Ji Dong and Dragon Emperor. No one trusted Ji Dong and Ji Dong's strength more than she did.
Buzz ———The invisible power spread instantly, and the Dragon Emperor Cave suddenly seemed to have a powerful gravity sucking. The huge pressure pressed towards Ji Dong like a mountain. Ji Dong's eyes also shone at the same moment. The dazzling silver light spurted out from his eyes, and the Divine Fire Holy King Armor quietly emerged from under the skin with the phoenix dance, dragon and snake transformation, covering his whole body instantly. How dare he not give his all his strength in the face of the Dragon Emperor?
At this time, the other saints of the Heavenly Stems, led by the four dragon kings, had already arrived at the entrance of the Dragon Emperor's Cave. Suddenly, the strong magic fluctuations were felt, and the fastest reaction was the Dayan Holy Fire Dragon. Although it was still in the arms of his mother, it immediately emerged from the Fire Dragon King's arms. Maotai and Wuliangye's four eyes looked in the direction of the cave at the same time. Of course, they could feel the pressure that Ji Dong was under at this time.
The Fire Dragon King's huge wings were placed on them, and he smiled slightly, saying, "Silly kid, don't worry. This is your father testing his abilities. He wants to become a human companion of the descendants of the Dragon Queen. His character, wisdom, and strength are indispensable. Since he has already taken action, it proves that Ji Dong has passed the previous test. Don't you believe him yet?"
Maotai and Wuliangye whispered at the same time, with extremely dissatisfied eyes. The saints of the Heavenly Stems also looked at each other and frowned for a moment.
