Dragon Tamer

“Zhu Minglang, I urge you not to indulge in unrealistic fantasies. You have no idea what lies beyond our borders, let alone what vast divine skills they possess. Just obediently hand over the ownership of this city, let Li Yunzi withdraw all the Army Guards, and when the time comes, if the Upper Realm is provoked, not just you, but you and your people will only have a dead end!” Crown Prince Zhao Ying said.

Resist??

What do these people have to resist an Upper Realm with!

Zhu Minglang is already gravely ill!

“This time, we are not facing the traitors of Absolute Ridge Chengbang, but the true descendants protected by gods, the descendants of our heavens. Zhu Minglang, do you really think your meager abilities are comparable to theirs?!” Zhou Xian of the Great Zhou Clan angrily accused.

“Yes, we don’t want to be treated as alien clans and exterminated when the time comes. Since they want Li Chuan and the Ancestral Dragon City-State, then give it to them. As long as we submit, everything will be peaceful,” He Xuzi from the Haoqi Martial School said.

“Right, hand over Li Chuan, hand over the Ancestral Dragon City-State. Ensuring everyone’s safety is the best strategy. Zhu Minglang, you and Li Yunzi should stop being stubborn and misguided. Do you really want to be the eternal sinners who drag us all into an abyss of no return??”

For a time, most people began to blame Zhu Minglang and Li Yunzi.

Zhu Minglang had anticipated this scene long ago; he knew that very few were truly willing to stand with him at this moment.

Even with Zhu Gate and the Yaoshan Sword Sect on his side, facing the collective condemnation of so many forces would still appear to be a minority against the majority.

“So, the Crown Prince of the Supreme Court plans on having everyone kneel to the powers beyond our land?” Zhu Minglang spoke up, his voice overpowering the representatives of the various forces present.

Some council for discussion.

This Crown Prince Zhao Ying had already convinced these forces and planned to act tonight!

It’s almost laughable.

A prince of the Imperial Dynasty, instead of forcing a palace change to take his father’s position as Emperor, was in this remote place, coercing a city lord into abdication and demanding the military power of Li Chuan.

But this also shows the current importance of the Ancestral Dragon City-State. Although they are not yet aware that the Ancestral Dragon City-State can resist the darkness, some Sky Guests, like Mingji, must have discovered some ancient divine traces in Li Chuan.

“We are simply adapting to the situation, and your behavior is undoubtedly suicidal. Zhu Minglang, do you really want to lead Zhu Gate, the Yaoshan Sword Sect, and the whole Li Chuan to perish with your arrogance?!” Zhao Ying said indignantly.

“Your heavy military presence in the city-state is the greatest challenge to the arrival of people from the Upper Realm. If the Upper Realm is angered, we will all suffer the consequences. So, tonight, whether you and Li Yunzi hand over the rule or not, we will not stand idly by!” Zhou Xian said.

“That’s right, hand over the Ancestral Dragon City-State!”

“Hand over the Ancestral Dragon City-State!”

“Hand over the Ancestral Dragon City-State!”

The Royal Family, the Great Zhou Clan, and the Haoqi Martial School took the lead, along with the Puppet Faction, Red Dragon Valley, Rain Arrow City, Fist Sect, Rock Concealing Sect…

These forces, which had been stationed in the Ancestral Dragon City-State early on, did not seem like they had just “adapted to the situation” tonight, but rather seemed to have been tightly united from much earlier, planning to instigate a revolution tonight!

Zhu Minglang’s gaze swept over this group of “kowtowers,” yet he was not surprised in the slightest.

They hadn’t even clashed swords yet, and already they couldn’t wait to open their own city gates, to welcome the trampling of the Lower God Organization, even willing to come before me with some decrepit edict to threaten me into handing over control of the Ancestral Dragon City-State…

Although Zhu Minglang had already known that there must be betrayers among these great forces, he had not expected that it would be Crown Prince Zhao Ying of the Supreme Court who was leading the charge!

“This is the trend of the times, Zhu Minglang, we have already been courteous enough towards you, and yet you persist in your obstinacy, dragging everyone towards a chasm of doom. We have no choice but to eradicate you as a dissident!” finally, Crown Prince Zhao Ying revealed his true intentions.

“Zhao Ying, don’t forget whose turf this is.” Zhu Minglang scoffed with laughter.

“What does that matter, when the army is guarding the city walls? As long as I take you and Li Yunzi down, I do not believe those ragtag troops dare to defy our Imperial edict!” Zhao Ying declared.

“Your princely brain is not even equal to your brother Zhao Yu’s.” Zhu Minglang said with disdain.

Zhao Yu stood to the side, his hatred for Zhu Minglang lessened unaccountably, though compared to the vast ocean of loathing in his heart, this diminutive droplet held little significance.

“Seize them!” Zhao Ying commanded coldly.

This evening’s banquet was prepared expressly for Zhu Minglang and Li Yunzi.

The reason it was chosen for tonight was because darkness would envelop Li Chuan and the Ancestral Dragon City-State, and most of Li Yunzi’s Army Guards would need to be stationed outside the city to fend off the dark forces.

Besides the Ancestral Dragon City-State, there were so many other cities and city-states on the Li Chuan Continent that needed defending, thus the military forces would be seriously divided.

Therefore, Zhao Ying and these united forces naturally chose to make their move tonight!

Suddenly, the surrounding buildings were brightly lit, and the sound of heavy military boots on stone pavement was distinctly audible.

Beyond that, at the height of the buildings, perched atop rooftops, one after another fully-armed Crossbow Archers appeared, their bows drawn to the point where they could release arrows at any time, waiting just for a command from Crown Prince Zhao Ying inside to turn everyone in the house into a hornet’s nest.

“Ladies and gentlemen, please remain calm. We are only targeting Zhu Minglang and Li Yunzi. I, Zhao Ying, swear on the Royal Family’s name that I will treat everyone well. In the future, there will also be a place for everyone in the Ancestral Dragon City-State!” Zhao Ying immediately spoke out to soothe the other forces.

Some forces were already backed by the Lower God Organization, and Zhao Ying was well aware of it, so he had no desire to offend them.

But today, he had to seize control of the Ancestral Dragon City-State by any means necessary. Once the Ming God Army arrived, he would hand over the Ancestral Dragon City-State to the God’s Descendants from the Ming God Clan. He believed the Lower God Organization would then regard Zhao Ying with newfound respect!

“Master Wen, I apologize for the offense. As long as you order your Sword Army back outside Rui Country’s borders, I, Zhao Ying, will not make things difficult for the two of you,” Zhao Ying specifically apologized to Wen Lingfei.

“These useless things, think they can hold me back?” Wen Lingfei sneered coldly.

Suddenly drawing her sword, its radiance was like fireworks filling the sky, so dazzingly bright that it instantly engulfed the entire mansion.

He Xuzi from the Haoqi Martial School was the first to react, trying to use his Divine Skill, the Haoqi Golden Buddha, to suppress the powerful Flying Sword Technique of Wen Lingfei.

But clearly, Wen Lingfei had concealed her true strength; she blasted all of He Xuzi’s golden energy away with a single sword strike and forced him to retreat.

“Zhao Ying, thank you for the hospitality of fine wine. In a few days, I will lead the Sword Army to flatten your Prince’s Mansion, as a token of my gratitude!” Declaring her astonishing martial prowess, Wen Lingfei, with her superior swordsmanship, fought her way out from the eaves.
