Chapter 183 Puppet City Lord

A faint light shone in the empty space, and the light formed a silhouette, floating in the air.

Lin Yuan suppressed the shock in his heart and looked at the figure in front of him.

Dragon Emperor seemed to see through Lin Yuan's thoughts and said.

"I'm just a remnant soul, you two don't need to be nervous."

The faint voice revealed majesty, and even if it was just a wisp of remnant soul, the imperial power he carried should not be underestimated.

Lin Yuan's expression showed some respect, and he stood in front of the Dragon Emperor's shadow, neither humble nor arrogant.

"I wonder what the Dragon Emperor wants us to do?"

They were still in the Dragon King Temple just now, but they arrived at this place in the next second. It must have been the Dragon Emperor's intention.

The Dragon Emperor's phantom eyes fell on Lin Yuan and the two of them, and took a deep look.

"I feel the aura of descendants in both of you."

The breath of future generations?

Lin Yuan and Luo Qinghan looked at each other, thinking that the Dragon Emperor's shadow must be talking about Long Xi.

When it comes to the Dragon Emperor, Lin Yuan actually doesn't want Long Xi to have anything to do with the Dragon Emperor.

Long Xi had no choice in his origin, but the ancient Dragon Emperor was a completely bad dragon.

Before the ancient Dragon Emperor became emperor, he committed many things.

Although he has restrained himself a lot since then, there are some things hidden in his bones that cannot be changed no matter how hard he changes them.

Dragon Emperor Xuying looked at the two people in front of him and smiled softly.

"You don't need to guard against me. I'm just a remnant soul. The reason why I'm being worshiped here is just to wash away my own sins so that my descendants won't have to bear this burden again."

Lin Yuan was stunned.

Will the Dragon Emperor have this realization?

Looking at the afterimage, Lin Yuan did not completely believe the words of the Dragon Emperor's shadow.

Even if the Dragon Emperor only has a remnant soul left, he still needs to be careful.

The two of them stood opposite the Dragon Emperor's shadow with solemn expressions, and neither of them spoke.

Dragon Emperor Xuying smiled calmly, but did not reveal the wariness in the two people's hearts.

"What are you doing here?"

In the past, only local people would come to the Dragon King Temple to beg for dragon scales. It rarely saw outsiders visiting here.

Lin Yuanyan stated the purpose of this trip concisely and comprehensively.

"We were going to Jiehai, but the city gate never opened, so we followed the locals' guidance and came to this place to get the dragon scales."

"Oh okay……"

When the Dragon Emperor's shadow finished speaking, he played a long note at the end, like an illusory Great Dao, lingering in this illusion.

Lin Yuan's heart tightened.

Now they are in the world built by the Dragon Emperor. If the old man becomes angry, it may affect both of them.

Just when they were all thinking about the most extreme consequences, a dragon scale containing the aura of the Great Emperor floated in front of them.

"Wish ya'll good luck."

Dragon Emperor Xuying's relaxed tone made Lin Yuan a little suspicious, but they really needed this dragon scale at the moment.

Lin Yuan raised his eyes and landed on the figure of the Dragon Emperor, trying to see clearly what he was thinking.

But the phantom supported by a wisp of remnant soul was never comparable to the Dragon Emperor himself. Even if he stood there, Lin Yuan could not get a glimpse of the emotions behind the Dragon Emperor's phantom.

After much hesitation, Lin Yuan took the dragon scale.

The dragon scales are red, and there is a slight burning sensation in the hand. If you look closely, you can see that the lines on the scales are still glowing red, vaguely revealing pressure.

"Thank you."

Although Lin Yuan didn't like the Dragon Emperor in his heart, he didn't express that he would lose his etiquette because of it.

"You're welcome. I need you to take care of my descendants."

"The Great Emperor's words are serious. Even if the Great Emperor doesn't say it, we will take good care of her."

"That's good..." Dragon Emperor Xuying took a deep look at Lin Yuan, and then opened the void for Lin Yuan, "I won't send you away."

When Lin Yuan left, he didn't forget to look back at the Dragon Emperor's shadow.

Is it an illusion?

Why is the phantom of the Dragon Emperor getting thinner and thinner.

Lin Yuan hid the doubts in his heart and left the void space with Luo Qinghan.

When he landed, he looked around.

Lin Yuan's tone suddenly turned cold. The waiter thought he was afraid, so he patiently explained.

Seeing the two people's expressions getting darker and darker, the waiter couldn't help but shuddered and said awkwardly: "But seeing that you two are fine, I can feel relieved."

"The city lord will kill all the people in the village? Is there no one who resists?"

After saying this, the atmosphere between the two became more subtle.

After a long time, Luo Qinghan opened her lips and said.

"We can't guess what the Great Emperor is thinking. The top priority is to find Taotie's whereabouts."

"what happened?"

There are still such ridiculous things in the world.

"Tell me...how could it be that the Dragon Emperor appears near the Taotie Realm Sea, or is it a wisp of soul body?"

The location pointed by the waiter happened to be the village where they stopped to rest yesterday.

As soon as I stepped in, the waiter came to greet me.

"Resist? What's the use? We are all ordinary people, not as good as those ascetics, and a lot of things like this happened. At first, there were still people who resisted, but as time went by, all those who resisted were killed, and those who remained People don’t even dare to act rashly.”

"which one?"

The boundary sea is not far away.

"Young master, you asked me for a map yesterday. I was thinking that the place is close to here. I thought you also went there, and you didn't come back last night..."

Lin Yuan was stunned for a moment.

When the waiter heard this, he sighed heavily.

"What's wrong?"

"Yesterday, a village was destroyed by the city lord."

The waiter looked at Lin Yuan and the two men standing in front of him intact, so he naturally concealed what he said next.

"Yesterday the wizard observed the Celestial Phenomenon and noticed a strange phenomenon in the west. He sent someone to inform the city lord that if he wanted to avoid the crisis, he had to sacrifice the village under the strange phenomenon to the sky to ensure peace."

…

Lin Yuan thought of what Po Wen said yesterday and frowned slightly.

Lin Yuan noticed something was wrong with the atmosphere around him and asked.

The two figures flashed and disappeared into the Gobi the next second.

Luo Qinghan tilted her head, "What's wrong?"

Lin Yuan squinted his eyes and looked in the direction pointed by the waiter, his pupils shrinking suddenly.

Taotie was originally one of the four ferocious beasts in ancient times. As the "right way" Dragon Emperor would appear in this place, it always felt like there was something hidden behind it.

They seemed to be back where they first came from.

"Hey, you two guests, you are finally back!"

The moment Lin Yuan put away his dragon scales, the veil of confusion quietly fell.

"That's it..." The waiter in the shop was so anxious that he was a little confused. Finally he took out a map from his pocket and pointed it to Lin Yuan, "This is the village!"

Lin Yuan nodded.

People were still coming and going on the street, and Lin Yuan and Luo Qinghan returned to the original inn together.

"Master, something is wrong..."
