Chapter 1948 Proud Dragon (2)
?"Why?" Yun Lintian inquired curiously.
"Since ascending the throne, Long Aotian has implemented a series of measures," Dongfang Hao explained. "One such action involved stripping the opposing faction of their power and banishing them to work as miners in the mines."
"Without their dragon lineage, they would have perished in the mines long ago."
Crackle!
A crackle resonated as Yun Lintian clenched his fists. A murderous intent flickered in his eyes, causing the surrounding temperature to plummet.
Dongfang Xue was startled by the chilling aura emanating from Yun Lintian. Merely looking at him felt like drowning in a sea of blood.
Meanwhile, a flicker of astonishment crossed Dongfang Hao's eyes. He had encountered numerous murderous figures, but none compared to Yun Lintian. The intensity of such a killing intent in such a young man was simply unbelievable.
"What else has he done?" Yun Lintian demanded coldly.
Having inherited the Primordial Azure Dragon God's bloodline, Yun Lintian always considered himself part of the Dragon God Clan. He couldn't tolerate Long Aotian's despicable actions.
"He chose to halt his pursuit against them, unwilling to further tarnish his reputation," Dongfang Hao replied. "However, his misdeeds continued to surface over the years."
"Long Aotian possesses immense pride, with arrogance exceeding all bounds. He consistently believes himself to be the pinnacle figure of the Primal Chaos. Over the past years, he has engaged in secretive acts of robbery and murder."
"The Dragon God has fallen to this? How utterly ludicrous!" Zhang Yu scoffed, disgusted by Long Aotian's behavior.
The Primordial Azure Dragon God was one of the most revered figures in the Primal Chaos, his prestige comparable to even the primordial gods. Long Aotian's actions were a mere stain on his own ancestor's legacy.
"People in the Great Expanse go to great lengths to avoid them," Dongfang Hao stated. "We are no exception."
Yun Lintian fixated his gaze upon Dongfang Hao and inquired, "Senior, what actions do you intend to take? Now that Dongfang Chen is aware of Long Qingxuan's existence, how can you ensure his silence?" Read latest chapters at novelhall.com Only
"Trust me with this matter," Dongfang Hao declared with a serious expression. "He won't be able to do anything."
Yun Lintian made a mental note, planning to ask Lan Qinghe about this later.
"The Nine Heavens Realm boasts numerous secret realms," Dongfang Hao continued, placing a map on the table. "Here's a star map."
"Thank you very much," Yun Lintian calmly responded as he accepted the map.
"This is all the assistance I can offer in my current position. If you encounter an insurmountable obstacle, feel free to contact me directly. While I cannot guarantee a specific outcome, I can ensure your safety," Dongfang Hao said with a serious expression.
"Understood," Yun Lintian nodded.
Creak—
A creaking sound echoed through the room as the door opened, revealing Long Qingxuan.
Yun Lintian, surprised, glanced at Dongfang Hao. It was clear that the latter had intentionally allowed Long Qingxuan to overhear their conversation.
"Greetings, Dragon Princess," Dongfang Hao stated politely upon seeing her. Despite his high standing, he maintained a humble demeanor in her presence, evidencing his deep respect for the Primordial Azure Dragon God.
Long Qingxuan responded calmly, "There's no need for formalities. I am nothing more than a weakling at present."
Turning to Yun Lintian, she declared, "I want to visit the Dragon God Realm."
Yun Lintian shook his head, "Not now. We'll go together later. Remember, your problems are my problems as well."
Long Qingxuan fell silent.
Zhang Yu briefly glanced at the pair before averting her gaze away. She now understood the relationship between them.
Meanwhile, Dongfang Hao observed them thoughtfully, seemingly discovering another secret.
"Very well," Long Qingxuan said calmly. "I'm sorry for causing trouble."
With that, she turned and retreated to her room.
Stunned, Yun Lintian turned to Yun Yi as if seeking confirmation of what he had just heard — Long Qingxuan had actually apologized...
