Chapter 1291: Surprise and Distribution!

Chapter 1291: Surprise and Distribution!

On their way back to the Heavenly Dragon Peak, Li Luo and Jiang Qing'e's team met up with Li Tingyue, who had led the Dragon's Scale Guardians to intercept the Blackwater Guardians reinforcements earlier. The group gathered up and rushed back to the Heavenly Dragon Peak directly.

There were no more obstructions along the way.

When they returned, there were whispers all over the Heavenly Dragon City. Many curious gazes looked over excitedly.

Clearly, the news of Li Luo getting past all the obstructions and coming back with the Sovereign Pearl had spread all over the City. Countless people were talking about it.

Initially, most of them felt that Li Luo and Jiang Qing'e wouldn't be able to last until reinforcements from the Heavenly Dragon Peak arrived. There were many strong foes along the way. Dozens of Dukes had set their eyes on it and moreover, there were also those from the Bloodline of Heavenly Emperor Zhao as well as the other Heavenly Emperor powers.

Jiang Qing'e might be an unrivaled talent with a Ten-Pillar Duke Bergfried but she was still a first-grade Duke. She was too inexperienced compared to the numerous Dukes in tge World End's River Region. She was unlikely to change anything with just her alone.

As for Li Luo, even more people had neglected his presence. He was still a Greater Heavenly Resonance, which would barely be worth watching in a battle of such scale. However, they continued to hear more news over time and realized that Li Luo had defeated Zhao Zhuoyan, the Grand Commander of Divine Tiger Guardians. This caused a really huge commotion in the City.

After all, Zhao Zhuoyan was at the pinnacle of a lower second-grade Duke stage! Coupled with two thousand Guardians assisting him, his strength could rival that of a fourth-grade Duke!

Yet, he still lost the fight in the end.

The arsenal of tricks up Li Luo's sleeves was truly shocking.

His achievements from the fight did not pale in comparison to Jiang Qing'e.

It was all thanks to both of their stunning performances that they could buy sufficient time for reinforcements to arrive.

Many strong Dukes in the Heavenly Dragon City sighed in their hearts. Jiang Qing'e and Li Luo had truly made a name for themselves in the World End's River Region. Many veteran Dukes would begin to pay attention to them from now onwards.

In an encampment at the Dragon's Blood Guardians.

Guardian General Li Zhihuo watched the large army return with a complex look in his eyes. The Heavenly Dragon Five Guardian Armies had sent out three of the Guardian Armies to help Li Luo this time. This had caused quite a bit of commotion.

Everyone in the Heavenly Dragon City had heard about the stunning battles of Jiang Qing'e and Li Luo. Naturally, the Guardian General of Dragon's Blood Guardians was aware of it too. Thê source of this content n/o/v/(el)bi((n))

"With just her own strength and three Thousand Guardians, Jiang Qing'e had managed to stop Zhao Jiyun from the Divine Tiger Guardians as well as three other fifth-grade Dukes. The triple ninth-grade Light resonance and Ten-Pillar Duke Bergfried are truly domineering. If her second Duke Bergfried is also a Ten-Pillar Duke Bergfried, I am afraid I will even have to give way for her." Li Zhihuo commented with a perplexed look. On his side, the charming face of Li Hongque changed too. She was so shocked by their battles that she couldn't say anything disparaging. In the end, she said, "It's not so easy to forge a Ten-Pillar Duke Bergfried again. Since ancient times, there have been many top talents who have gotten a Ten-Pillar Duke Bergfried as their first Duke Bergfried. However, they exhausted all their potential for it and no longer achieved anything spectacular afterwards. In fact, they even got from bad to worse. Most of them couldn't even forge a Nine-Pillar Duke Bergfried afterwards."

Li Zhihuo shook his head. "Li Luo actually managed to defeat Zhao Zhuoyan. It seems like I've really underestimated him in the past. With such a track record, he'll definitely become the First Grand Commander of the Dragon's Fang Guardians once he gets enough experience. When that time comes, your title as the strongest First Grand Commander in the Five Guardian Armies will be challenged."

Li Hongque pouted her mouth. "I've fought with Zhao Zhuoyan earlier, he is nothing worth mentioning."

She was an upper second-grade Duke and considered the strongest First Grand Commander amongst the whole Heavenly Dragon Five Guardian Armies. Naturally, she was stronger than Zhao Zhuoyan.

He didn't hide anything from Li Jingzhe and took out the two Sovereign Pearls. At the same time, he handed over all the other Spirit Clam Pearls he had collected.

Endless amount of brilliant light shone out, filling up the whole Pavilion brightly.

Many Elders stared at the golden pearls emitting thousands of feet of brilliant light. This's the precious and rare Sovereign Pearl. Li Luo was able to get two of them? Just how lucky was he?

Even Li Jingzhe was a little surprised. Li Qingpeng walked up and collected the Sovereign Pearls along with all the other Spirit Pearls. He tabulated their harvest accordingly.

Many of the Elders were watching excitedly. The Sovereign Pearl was a top grade ingredient for crafting top grade Foundational Spirit Treasures. It was an extremely attractive treasure even to them.

However, they understood the rules. Only those involved in the mission and had made significant contributions for its success would have the priority in exchanging for the prizes.

"You all have made significant contributions to the success of the mission this time. If any of you wants to trade for the Sovereign Pearl, feel free to speak up." Li Jingzhe told Jiang Qing'e, Li Luo, Li Jinpan, Ox Biaobiao and Li Rouyun.

Jiang Qing'e and Li Luo made the biggest contributions by fighting their way back with the Sovereign Pearl. However, Li Jinpan and the other two had contributed significantly for its success too. If they had not stayed back to stop the upper grade Dukes, Li Luo and the rest wouldn't be able to leave the Golden Stone Valley at all. As such, they also had priority in exchanging for the rewards.

Li Jinpan rubbed his nose. This Sovereign Pearl was something he immensely coveted. However, he felt a stern gaze coming from Li Jingzhe before he could speak up. He laughed out and responded, "Hey, how can the Elders like us fight over it with the youngsters? You can give it to Li Luo and Qing'e." Ox Biaobiao nodded his head. Li Rouyun also smiled and nodded.

"Second Uncle and the rest had really helped us a lot. I can give up on this as long as there's one left for Li Luo. He's the one who really needs the Sovereign Pearl." Jiang Qing'e said softly.

Li Jingzhe waved his hand and answered, "Your contributions have been rewarded with dragon essences. However, it's most likely still insufficient to trade for the Sovereign Pearl."

He took a glance at Li Qingpeng, who quickly did some calculations before replying, "The two of them will still need to add on around another 70,000 dragon essences."

Li Jingzhe nodded his head. "Put it on the tab first. We'll talk about it later."

Then, he lifted his fingers and the two Sovereign Pearl flew towards Li Luo and Jiang Qing'e directly.

The two of them took a look at each other before they reached out and accepted it.

In the Pavilion, the corners of the mouths of many Elders twitched a little when they witnessed this scene, especially Li Jiluo, Li Zhiqiu and those from the lineages. Before they could voice out their opinions for the Sovereign Pearl, it had already been distributed by Li Jingzhe.

And the requisite dragon essences could even be provided in the form of a loan...?

This Is simply...

Spoiling his grandson openly and blatantly!

However, there was nothing they could say in the face of Li Jingzhe, a Quasi-Triple Crown King. They could only rub their noses and accept the truth of things reluctantly.
