Chapter 300 Dragon Queen
The Elder gazed at Xuefeng in shock and reached up to touch his cheek. The scratch has already healed with his passive regeneration, but the crimson blood was still present. He rubbed the blood between his fingers and finally decided to bow.
"I apologize for offending you, Sir. I will take my leave now," the Elder replied politely and walked out from the restaurant. As soon as he disappeared from Xuefeng's sight, the Elder's face grew serious and pale.
"What kind of speed was that...?" the Elder wondered out loud while trying to recall Xuefeng's attack. "Not only was it fast but it even broke through all my defenses... I need to warn the Queen..."
The moment he felt Xuefeng's claw on his face and tried to react, Xuefeng was already gone, sitting at his seat as if nothing happened. If Xuefeng wanted to kill him, he would be dead before he even realized it. They were definitely dealing with someone from Beyond the Heavens.
The Elder teleported immediately and appeared in a busy room full of chattering and loud opinions. Nine highest Elders accompanied the Queen by the round table and argued intensely.
"Why are we sitting here when the enemy is drinking our best wine and eating our best food?!" The youngest-looking Elder with a muscular body banged on the table in anger. "We should group up and strike him while he is still unaware of our power!" Discover new chapters at novelhall.com
"I agree! He killed our City Lord! An eye for an eye! His punishment should be death!" Another elder with black horns nodded in agreement, causing the Dragon Queen to rub her eyes in annoyance. She looked up at the new arrival and her eyes brightened.
"Eldest Elder came back. Shut up all of you and listen to what he has to say," the Dragon Queen informed but then she paused, looking straight at the blood on the Eldest Elder's cheek. "Why are you bleeding?"
"I tried to test that man's strength and I almost died after disrespecting him. I'm only here because he spared me," the Eldest Elder announced coldly and met his eyes with the loudest bunch. "I'm almost certain he is from Beyond the Heavens."
His response silenced everyone in the room while the Queen looked at him with raised eyes. "Did you find out the reason for his visit to our Realm?"
"No, he chased me out before I could ask." the Eldest Elder shook his head. "Even if I asked, I doubt I would get an answer. He expects your visit, my Queen, and won't talk to anyone else."

Compared to how seriously the Dragon Queen approached the situation, Xuefeng was chilling while admiring his new strength.
'I must say, that Dragon Claw is quite impressive. You did a good job,' Xuefeng praised while admiring his hand. 'I thought the Elder might have some defenses but I sliced right through them."
'This is the power of a pure Bloodline,' Ming replied humbly. 'Yours will be stronger once its complete since your power is extremely condensed. You already have a Forest Elf Bloodline which will strengthen the Dragon Bloodline even further.'
'Oh, does that mean I won't be able to turn into a gigantic Dragon?' Xuefeng wondered disappointed. He knew the bigger didn't mean stronger but it was still cool.
'You can't become a big Dragon but you will get something better. You will be able to turn into a human-sized Dragon that will be stronger, tougher, and more resistant than any current living Dragons,' Ming explained excitedly. 'That's all my theory though. I want you to keep all properties of the Dragon Bloodline and even grow over time without doing anything.'
'All we need is more Bloodline Essence...' Xuefeng muttered and suddenly looked up, sensing a strong aura coming from outside the building. 'Don't worry, leave it to me.'
'Hah, all you need to do is convince the Dragon Queen to let you kill some of her Elders,' Ming challenged playfully. 'If you can do it without starting the war, I will let you do anything to me all night.'
'Can't I already do that?' Xuefeng asked back and smiled, imaging the feast once everything is over. 'It's a deal then.'
Before Xuefeng could figure out his action plan, the Dragon Queen has finally appeared. Compared 'It's a deal then.'
Before Xuefeng could figure out his action plan, the Dragon Queen has finally appeared. Compared to what he imagined, he definitely didn't expect a smile on her face.
"I have heard a lot about you, my friend. Glad we can finally meet."
