“Hey hey, what are you guys talking about?” Pure Yang Holy Master was puzzled. “Why are you saying things I don’t understand?”
“Primordial Holy Master, are you saying there has been an accident with the True Dragon Clan?” The Sun God King reacted quickly, pointing directly to the core of the topic.
“Guess, with the character of the True Dragon Clan, why have they avoided coming out for ten thousand years, only occasionally letting one or two geniuses appear to maintain their presence?” the Dongfang Mingyue asked with a smile.
“What do you think is the reason?”
This shook everyone present. The Great Qin Emperor, the elders of the Primordial Holy Land, and the two powerhouses of the Pure Yang Holy Land immediately grasped the implication.
“There are only two possibilities!” The Great Qin Emperor suddenly spoke up: “One, the True Dragon Clan is planning something big that requires the entire clan’s participation.”
“The other, the True Dragon Clan has already declined, with no strong individuals being born for many years, forcing them to create some strong individuals in hiding!”
“Compared to the former, I find the latter more likely,” he continued. “Only the path of proving Dao can involve the entire True Dragon Clan. But since the path to becoming an emperor has not yet opened, such a thing is unlikely.”
“Given the proud nature of the True Dragon Clan, which has not taken the rest of the world into consideration for millions of years, the only thing that could make them hide is a severe loss of their strong individuals, making them unable to maintain their status. So they dare not come out, probably forcibly creating some strong individuals in hiding!”
These people knew the True Dragon Clan too well.
“The True Dragon Clan is usually so bold; they would only refrain from action if their strength had declined and they became cowardly,” said the Sun God King, taking a deep breath as he sorted through his thoughts.
“Now that they’re not coming forward, it indicates that the True Dragon Clan has indeed become cowardly.”
“No wonder the Primordial Holy Master said this is an overt stratagem!” He continued, “It’s forcing internal strife among the myriad clans while also providing an opportunity for the Undying Phoenix Clan.”
“More importantly, it allows the human race to observe from the sidelines and gauge the depth of the True Dragon Clan!”
“This is earth-shattering news!” exclaimed the Sun God King, feeling a sense of unreality. “The True Dragon Clan, which has been unshakable for millions of years, is actually on the brink of decline!”
For the entire Nine Heavens Realm, especially the top powers, the True Dragon Clan has always been an unforgettable name – a persistent shadow and nightmare.
Now, this mountain seems to be collapsing on its own, which felt surreal and almost unrealistic to him. But the reality in front of him confirmed that it was true.
“Still, the Sun God King is a bit more astute, understanding at once,” the Dongfang Mingyue said with a smile. “Pure Yang, I think this position of Holy Master should be given to the Sun God King!”
“Sun God King, don’t you think so?” Pure Yang Holy Master stared at the Sun God King with wide eyes.
Hearing this, the Sun God King rolled his eyes and said helplessly, “Stop joking, brother. You should know better than I do. I don’t want the position of Holy Master, even if you paid me!”
“The True Dragon Clan is actually declining!” The Pure Yang Holy Master’s face darkened slightly, his tone heavy. “It’s a bit unreal and worrisome. This isn’t a good sign.”
He added, “The True Dragon Clan was born with a heavenly mandate, innately powerful, incomparable to other clans. If they are declining, it might signify problems with the fate of the Nine Heavens Realm. The catastrophe from a million years ago may be repeating.”
Hearing of the decline of the True Dragon Clan, the Pure Yang Holy Master didn’t worry too much but was concerned. The True Dragon Clan was special, perennially strong, with the Undying Phoenix Clan even experiencing a period of decline, but the True Dragon Clan had never fallen.
Now, with the Ancient Desolate Demon Realm’s seal loosening and the True Dragon Clan declining, he had a bad premonition. His sixth sense, extremely accurate for cultivators of their level, indicated that significant events were on the horizon.
“Disaster is coming!” said the Great Qin Emperor, looking grim.
“Everything has its time of downfall, even the world itself, let alone the True Dragon Clan!” the Dongfang Mingyue said lightly.
“But indeed, a disaster is approaching, and it’s also an opportunity. An overwhelming heavenly might that no one can stop!”
“Forget about that for now,” the Great Qin Emperor said, turning to the Dongfang Mingyue.
“Now that the matter is resolved, I’ve even brought out the Emperor Weapon for your sake. I want to know the final answer!” He was eager for the truth about the curse that had plagued the Great Qin Dynasty for ages.
“The Supreme Palace will have everything you want to know. You’ll find out then,” the Dongfang Mingyue said meaningfully. New ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄhapters are published on NoveI~Fire.net
“Can’t you just explain it plainly?” the Great Qin Emperor asked in frustration. “Haven’t you heard the saying that speaking in half-truths can bring about deadly consequences?” he said solemnly.
“Then let me give you another saying: Impulsiveness is the start of destruction. Make your choice!” Dongfang Mingyue responded nonchalantly.
She wanted to explain, but without complete information from Jiang Chen, how could she?
“Alright then,” the Great Qin Emperor sighed and vanished from the spot.
“Oh, and by the way, there will be a reckoning with the Gu family soon. If you want a share, feel free to join in!” Dongfang Mingyue reminded.
Hearing this, the Great Qin Emperor reappeared from the void, his face contorted with anger. “Were you planning not to include the Great Qin Dynasty from the start?”
“Ha-ha, of course not. You’ve always been included. Just a reminder!” the Dongfang Mingyue said with a light laugh.
