Chapter 1026 Azure Dragon Tribe (10)

Name:Cultivation Pet Shop Author:


After the two assailants had been subdued, there was only silence that followed.

Everyone looked at the Azure Dragon Tribe head with a new look.

It had been a long time since he had shown his power since he had always tried to settle things peacefully, but now they remembered why he had become their leader in the first place. The power that came with this title of leader wasn't something that could be underestimated.

As for the Azure Dragon Tribe head, he raised his hand and gave a sign.

After he gave this sign, there were two figures that appeared beside him as well.

Just like how Qing Qiang had trained death guards, the Azure Dragon Tribe head also had similar guards.

He just didn't summon them since he felt that he needed to show a demonstration of his power for everyone.

But now that he had shown his power, he would leave the things that needed to be handled to the guards since it was their job in the first place.

The two assailants were brought onto the stage in front of the Azure Dragon Tribe head before being restrained. While they were being restrained, they were also searched for anything that could be used to take their own lives.

Once they were restrained, the Azure Dragon Tribe head came forward to slap them across the face.

He could have chosen a much gentler method of waking these two up, but he didn't do that. Instead, he just slapped them across the face to wake them up.

In a way, it was him venting his anger towards his son on these subordinates of his.

If it wasn't for Qing Qiang causing all that trouble, they wouldn't be in the mess that they were currently in.

Still, there was no choice since this was what Qing Qiang had already chosen.

He had to fulfil his duty as the head of the Azure Dragon Tribe and as a father.

After these two woke up, the Azure Dragon Tribe head said in a cold voice, "Who sent you?"

The way that he said this made it clear that he brokered no argument and he was only expecting the answer from them.

However, these two death guards had been properly trained and no matter how they were tortured, they wouldn't say a single thing. So both of them just stood there staring at the Azure Dragon Tribe head with blank looks, as if they didn't even register that he had spoken to them.

Of course, the Azure Dragon Tribe head had already expected this from these two when he had first captured them.

They didn't even fear death, so there was no chance of getting any information from them.

Instead, he just gave a sigh and turned his attention away from the two of them.

Everyone was surprised, but then they remembered what had been happening before this.

All of them immediately turned their attention back to the Azure Dragon Tribe head and waited for him to finish telling them what he had been about to tell them. Especially Qing Qiang who had a look like he was about to face death on his face.

He had used all his trump cards and in the end, he hadn't been able to do anything…

This feeling of helplessness was crushing for him.

So after thinking it through, he decided…that he would rather submit than die.

Even if he had to submit to his father, which was the last thing that he wanted to do, it was still better than dying.

So before the Azure Dragon Tribe head could say anything, Qing Qiang sent a secret spiritual sense message to him.

But he was shocked to find that the Azure Dragon Tribe head acted like he didn't hear him.

Qing Qiang wasn't a fool, he knew exactly what this meant.

It meant that his father had condemned him to his death and would sacrifice him to the Dragon Race for the sake of the Azure Dragon Tribe.

When he realized this, there was a piercing feeling inside of his heart like he was being stabbed by a dagger, but he didn't have time to dwell on it.

So instead of waiting for him to speak, he suddenly pointed at his father and said, "The true culprit is our head! He was the one that sent the envoy to Lin Astral Empire to look for my younger brother Qing Ao in the first place! The pieces of paper in his hands are just fakes to frame innocent people with!"

In times like this, he would strike first to bend the truth.

As long as he struck first, the public would be on his side and they would believe what he said.

So he chose to throw it all back at his father, spinning it so that it was all his fault.

Everyone couldn't help turning to look at Qing Qiang before turning back to look at the Azure Dragon Tribe head.

The name Qing Ao was considered a taboo in the Azure Dragon Tribe, so now that it was brought out, of course it attracted a lot of attention.

Qing Ao was the one that people had wanted to take over instead of Qing Qiang, but since he had disappeared, everyone had stopped talking about him out of fear of offending Qing Qiang. But now that his name had been brought back out again, everyone couldn't help feeling that this was strange.

The last person to see Qing Ao was the Azure Dragon Tribe head, his father.

The Azure Dragon Tribe head gave a sigh when he heard this and he shook his head.

The way that he looked now, it was as if he was filled with disappointment towards his son.

Qing Qiang's face couldn't help twisting a bit when he heard this, but he quickly continued slandering his father.

He believed that with all the slander that he had thrown at his father, he would be able to come out on top.

But he didn't realize one critical mistake.

The Azure Dragon Tribe head released his aura again and the pressure from it made everyone fall silent. They all turned to look at him, waiting to see what he would say this time.

"Who said anything about Qing Ao?" Those were the words that the Azure Dragon Tribe head calmly said.

As soon as he said this, everyone couldn't help looking at each other with a confused look since they never expected him to say these words.

Even Qing Qiang couldn't help being confused at first.

But then when they had a moment to process this, they realized that…he was right.

From beginning to end, no one had mentioned anything about Qing Ao.

So why did Qing Qiang suddenly bring it up?

Everyone turned back to look at Qing Qiang who had a very ugly look on his face.

He never would have thought that he would self-destruct like this…

The Azure Dragon Tribe head didn't give him any time to say anything else as he raised the pieces of paper in his hand and said, "As you've all expected, it was my son Qing Qiang who forged the token and sent the envoy to the Lin Astral Empire."

He calmly said these words that had such deep meaning, almost as if he didn't feel anything.

Everyone couldn't help feeling strange when they heard this since they knew the Azure Dragon Tribe head.

He was someone who cared deeply about his family, even his rebellious son. Or else it would have been impossible for the power struggle to have lasted this long.

After a moment of silence, the Azure Dragon Tribe head looked at the two guards he had summoned and gave them a nod. As soon as they received this nod, they started moving towards Qing Qiang.

Qing Qiang immediately snapped out of his daze when he saw this and he quickly raised his hand which had transformed into a claw as he said, "What are you doing?"

One of the guards said, "Please don't resist and let yourself be detained. Otherwise, we have no choice but to be rough."

Qing Qiang's expression twisted even more when he heard this.

He knew that there was no path forward for him if he were to allow these two to detain him. What would be awaiting him was the punishment of the Dragon Race elders and for a crime of this extent, it would mean that he would be killed.

So unless he fought back now, there was no chance that he would survive.

As long as he was alive, there was a chance for him to make a comeback.

After all, he was still the son of the Azure Dragon Tribe's head. He was someone that had a right to succession even if he was labelled as a traitor to the Dragon Race. This was his blood right and there wasn't anyone that could take this from him.

As long as he was able to escape, he was certain that the war faction would be willing to shelter him until the time was right for him to come back.

He even looked over at the war faction representatives for confirmation of this.

They didn't give any visible signs, but the look in their eyes made it clear what they were saying.

They agreed to shelter him if he was able to escape, but they wouldn't do anything to help him escape.

That was their bottom line.

With this promise, Qing Qiang didn't lose hope and looked to beat the guards approaching before looking for a way to escape.

It was just too bad that he didn't get this opportunity.
