1212 The Third Dragon God

After pouring almost all of his spiritual energy into the fragment of dragon scale, Patriarch Liang roared with excitement, "Come forth and show this lowly dog your unfathomable prowess, Dragon God!"

The fragment of dragon scale shattered in Patriarch Liang's grasp, releasing a powerful ripple that swept through the entire realm, and alerted every expert in the world.

The ripple also carried with it an ancient roar that vibrated the heart and soul of every individual that heard it, causing their blood to boil in excitement, almost as though they were reacting to it.

"Did you feel that?!" Xi Shengmo had a shocked expression on his face as he turned to look at Xi Mingze, who also looked extremely baffled.

"I felt it… What the hell was that?" Xi Mingze swallowed nervously.

"It came from the direction of…" They both turned to look in the direction of Azure Dragon City.

"I hope they aren't involved…" Xi Shengmo rubbed his eyes in a stressful manner as he sighed.

"Yet I have a feeling that something unprecedented is happening over there…"

"If you are that worried, why don't you go there and check up on them?" Xi Mingze said.

"You want me to show up unannounced in another city? I don't want any trouble with the Azure Dragon Family since we have been at peace for countless years now."

"I don't understand why you like them. If you ask me, I think there's something weird about them." Xi Mingze shook her head.

"I never said I like them, but they haven't given me a reason to dislike them. That's more than enough for me."

"Anyways, regardless if the two of them are involved or not, I am going to investigate the source of the ripple. I have a bad feeling about this."

Xi Mingze then said, "I will go with you. Whatever caused that ripple isn't something you can handle by yourself. Frankly speaking, it terrified me for a second, and I have never experienced such fear before."

Xi Mingze noticed that Xi Shengmo's body was trembling slightly, but she couldn't blame him. Meanwhile, the majority of the people living in that realm were shaking in fear.

Back at the location where the ripple originated from, Xi Meili and General Zheng had temporarily stopped their fight to watch the spectacle before them.

"What… is that?" Xi Meili muttered in a dazed voice as a majestic and massive dragon made of light hovered in the air, surrounding Yuan and Patriarch Liang.

This dragon had a transparent body and scales, and it looked like an illusion that was only half completed. However, despite that, it had a very real aura that was unlike anything Xi Meili have felt before. It was domineering and unfathomably deep— so deep that Xi Meili feared it might consume her if she tried to peek into its power.

As for Yuan, he seemed surprised by how much power was contained within such a small fragment of a scale, but it wasn't enough to scare him, as he has encountered people that could rival, even surpass its aura.

'If such power is contained within a fragment of a scale, just how powerful is the dragon as a whole? Now that would be terrifying…' Yuan thought to himself as he gazed upon the dragon with a calm face.

"Hahaha! Are you so scared that you don't even know how to react?! This is what you get for messing with me— with my Azure Family!!!" Patriarch Liang laughed like a maniac, his arm spread out with joy as he basked in the dragon's aura.

"Unfortunately, it's too late to beg for your life now!" Patriarch Liang pointed at Yuan and roared, "Swallow this ant, Almighty Dragon God!!!"

The Dragon God released a deafening roar that shook the world before flying towards Yuan with its mouth wide open.

Yuan raised his Empyrean Overlord and prepared to meet the Dragon God head-on.

However, Yuan suddenly lowered his sword with a weird look on his face.

"Yuan?! What are you doing?! How can you give up without a fight?!" Xi Meili cried out loud after seeing his actions, as she thought that he had given up before the Dragon God's prowess.

"Hahaha! It's only natural! Not even Heaven would have the courage to face the Dragon God, much less a little dragon!" Patriarch Liang laughed out loud.

"Yuan…?" Xi Meili suddenly raised an eyebrow when she noticed Yuan's eyes that were devoided of fear. In fact, he did not look like someone who had given up.

'I don't know what this feeling in my body is, but I do know that it's telling me to not fight the Dragon God.' Yuan thought inwardly as he waited for the Dragon God to reach him.

Sure enough, once the Dragon God reached Yuan, it stopped moving right in front of him.

The unexpected turn of events baffled Patriarch Liang, who was completely speechless by what was happening.

'What's going on? Why did the Dragon God stop?'

Patriarch Liang has no idea what was happening. In fact, he has never used the scale before until today, so he only assumed it was a spiritual treasure— a weapon of mass destruction due to the amount of spiritual energy contained within.

Unbeknownst to him and everyone there, the scale was not a weapon, and Patriarch Liang only had one thing right about it— that it belonged to the third Dragon God.

"What are you doing?! Kill that bastard!" Patriarch Liang roared at the Dragon God when he ran out of patience.

Eventually, the Dragon God began moving again, ramming straight at Yuan.

"Yes!" Patriarch Liang clenched his jaw and fists when he saw this, but what happened next caused his eyes to pop out of their sockets.

Instead of destroying Yuan like Patriarch Liang had hoped and imagined, the Dragon God entered Yuan's body and disappeared within.

After consuming the Dragon God, Yuan could feel something change inside his body. As for the specifications, he did not know what had changed.

'What? Dragon Goddess?' Yuan's eyes widened with surprise after learning this information through the system. He definitely did not expect the third Dragon God to be female.
