Chapter 596
Green Dragon’s Succession (Part 1)
“What? That damn fiend king is also a dragon vine?” asked the dragon vine.
“We would not dare to use our ancestor as joke material. Only those closest to him and those who have been around for millenniums know,” answered Lu Xiong.
Had the two elders not learn their fiend race’s secret technique to remove their fiend soul in order to guard Second Heaven’s Fiend Island and then been revived thanks to the white ape fiend king, who used a secret technique to revive them using compatible bodies, the two of them would’ve died around two hundred years of age for that was the average fiend’s lifespan.
“Since you took ten thousand years to evolve, does that mean that he’s dozens of thousands of years old?” queried Mu Yu, brushing the dragon vine’s scales.
Mu Yu always mistakenly viewed the dragon vine as but a plant that had developed a mind of its own.
“You can’t be a real dragon! You’re just a fraud!” brayed Long Xingyun, charging.
“Stop!” the elders jumped up and commanded.
The two elders readied themselves to stop the prince who snubbed them. The dragon vine behind the two elders ignored the two and sprayed green sword qi, linking up nine swords then ramming them into Long Xingyun, blasting him into the wall.
“You would accuse me of being a fraud, fraud?” the dragon vine questioned, showing blatant contempt for the impure dragon.New n0vel chapters are published on
Long Xingyun crawled to his feet to prepare for his next assault. Reading his intent, the two elders discharged energy to subdue their prince, resulting in him threatening, “You two old fools want to die next?!”
Lu Xiong warned, “Xingyun, we are showing you respect out of consideration of your status. Having said that, the dragon behind us holds status equal to your grandpa. You are not to hurt him!”
“I am Green Dragon Fiend King’s grandson, yet you would turn your backs on me? Is this a mutiny?”
Gui Dingtian lowered his head and rolled his eyes up. “We would never betray our own kind, but we worship true dragons. We have given our oath to protect true dragons with our lives; that is every fiend’s mission!”
“I’m the fiend carrying true dragon blood!”
“You may be Ancestor Green Dragon’s grandson, but your blood is not pure. On the other hand, our exalted dragon here is a true dragon through and through. We must ensure his safety,” disputed Lu Xiong, resolved.
Mu Yu didn’t really understand all the intricacies, but, boy, did he get a kick out of Long Xingyun’s reactions.
“You two aren’t such bad fiends, after all,” remarked the dragon vine, shaking itself out.
“Yes.”
“No following us, then.”
“As you command,” responded Lu Xiong.
Mu Yu took that as his cue to walk off, only to hear footsteps trailing behind. “Didn’t he tell you not to follow us?”
“We happen to be going the same way,” boldly lied Lu Xiong.
“Why is everyone out here?” Qiao Xue questioned
“Perfect timing. Qiao Xue...”
After hearing what happened, “Don’t leave, Mu Yu. Xingyun certainly was in the wrong, but I have something I need to inform you of,” Qiao Xue verbalised after hearing what transpired. “Elder Deer, Elder Lu, please head back first. I will keep an eye on them and keep them.”
Lu Xiong objected, “B-”
“Have you forgotten Grandpa Green Dragon trusts me the most? I will not disappoint him,” pledged Qiao Xue.
The two elders mulled over it for a moment before eventually returning to the shell. Qiao Xue subsequently led Mu Yu to the seaside and erected a water mist barrier to avoid anyone seeing them.
“Qiao Xue, were you aware of the dragon vine and fiend king’s connection?”
Qiao Xue had a quick glimpse of the dragon vine on Mu Yu’s shoulder and affirmed with a head gesture. “I didn’t bring it up because, once anyone is aware of his existence, he and you will be at risk.”
“At risk? I pretty much have danger for dinner daily.”
