Chapter 1692 Strange Phenomenon
?1692 Strange Phenomenon
The Azure Dragon's arrival took the Dragon Emperor by surprise.
"Your Majesty, you-you-you are okay? Are you healed?" he asked the man who walked into his palace hall. "I was never made aware that you had healed."
"It took some time," the Azure Dragon said. "I was only healed completely about a century ago and decided to live in peace for a time. I only came out because that bloody man was about to kill himself."
"Yes, we didn't know what to do with the situation at all," the Dragon Emperor said. "It is a good thing you came, or there would have been many other fatalities."
The Azure Dragon tossed the small clear vial filled with liquid in his hand. "Still, that man managed to make quite the poison. I would've needed days to heal myself from this," he said and tossed it to the Dragon Emperor.
The Dragon Emperor caught the poison and stayed stiff in fear of what the poison would do. "Don't worry, that glass bottle can hold Immortal poisons without any problem. Even if that might be the most potent Saint Poison, it is still not able to do anything to the bottle."
The Dragon Emperor nodded slowly, losing somewhat of his fear of the poison in his hand. "Why are you giving me this, Your Majesty?" he asked.
"I have no use for it, so you should have it," the Azure Dragon said. "You've done well in my absence the past few millennia. I know it was your duty, but take that as my thanks. Use it against your enemies in the future if there are any."
"Thank you," the Dragon Emperor said.
"Anyway, I'm going back to my realm," the Azure Dragon said. "I have someone to spend my time with now. I'll let you meet her if you are free sometime in the future." The original appearance of this chapter can be found at Ñøv€lß1n.
The Azure Dragon left.
"Her?" the Dragon Emperor was left stunned. What did the Azure Dragon mean by her? Had he found someone while he was in his secret realm busy healing?
It seemed that the Azure Dragon would be leaving him alone for a while longer, so the Dragon Emperor let him have his fun. He had no more than 1200 years in this world anyway.
Sooner or later, he would be gone from here.
"I... don't know," the Dragon Emperor said. He took out a talisman and quickly messaged the Azure Dragon to ask for his help, but no reply came.
"We'll know soon enough," the Dragon Emperor said and sent every one of his subordinates to find the cause of what they had all seen. Soon enough, reports started coming in on weird instances where people appeared out of nowhere, calling themselves players.
They truly came out of nowhere as they had no background at all. Most of them seemed to really like fighting and were very aggressive in nature.
The Dragon Emperor made his people try and find out more about these players who appeared by the thousands in every place. As more and more appeared and their information was gathered, one thing became clear.
These players were very, very talented, and could break through in realms as if it was nothing. Most of them were destroying their cultivation base for sure, but there were enough that were improving at a good rate while maintaining their foundation that they scared the Dragon Emperor.
Thankfully, there seemed to be no King amongst these newly arrived people.
The Dragon Emperor wanted to learn more about them but he had to pause as he was called by the Azure Dragon. Finally, nearly a month later, he sent a message saying he would explain the cause of the phenomenon.
So, the Dragon Emperor, along with his wife, went to the Azure Dragon's realm.
When they entered, they were taken to the flower field outside of the small pond where the Azure Dragon waved for them in his human form.
The two of them went over and stopped when they saw what was next to him.
"You wanted to learn about the phenomena, didn't you?" the Azure Dragon asked excitedly.
"Yes..." the Dragon Emperor said slowly. Was there more to understand? Was it not heralding the arrival of the players?
"Well, that was a birth omen," the Azure Dragon explained with pride.
"Birth Omen?" the Dragon Emperor asked with a shocked look on his face. "Of?"
His eyes moved from the Azure Dragon to the two that lay on the field, basking in the sun.
There lay a large white cat, snuggled next to whom was a newborn white kitten.
"His name is Qing Shouchuang," the Azure Dragon said with glee. "He's my son."
