Chapter 912: Lament
Jiang Yantian threw down his teacup: "The origin of the war of annihilation lies here. Heaven used my hand to kill the Dao Ancestor, and in the end, I was also eliminated."
"After the war that destroyed the world, it was rumored to be the end of the Dharma era. That was just nonsense from that bastard. His real intention was to tell you to be careful and not let so many powerful people emerge, as they are difficult to control!"
The Ice Soul Emperor nodded. He knew the general idea, but dared not think too much about it.
In fact, the birth of the Dao Ancestor meant that cultivators had completely broken free from the shackles of the Heavenly Dao.
From "rule-controlled" to "rule-challenger".
This reversal of roles forced Heaven to be wary and even intervene to suppress it.
But there's no way around it; everyone wants that position.
"Your Majesty the Demon Emperor, then I..." the Ice Soul Emperor asked cautiously.
Jiang Yantian laughed and said, "As I just said, you can either force your way in or I can help you, but there are risks involved, and you'll have to bear them yourself."
"There are replacements. To be honest, I have three Dao Ancestor positions at my disposal. I have three Dao Ancestors trapped in my possession, and I can kill them at any time."
"By replacing them, drawing on their original sources, following their old path, and going with the flow, the risks are relatively small. However, you'll have to consider your own strength in that regard."
"After all, it's not about proving one's own path!"
Ice Soul Emperor was stunned. Good heavens, he had captured three Dao Ancestors.
How can you say that so easily?
However, this approach is definitely the worst possible choice.
Thus, the only remaining path is to sever the Heavenly Dao.
The opportunity is indeed very great during the period of collapse and restructuring.
The success rate is in the tens of percent.
At that time, the heavens were filled with Dao Ancestors!
Whoever slays it will become the new Heavenly Dao.
So that's what His Majesty the Demon Emperor was planning.
"Crack!!!"
Just as the Ice Soul Emperor and Jiang Yantian were talking.
Suddenly, the entire ice on the frigid island emitted a cracking sound as it could no longer bear the weight!
"Roar!!!"
The next second, a deafening dragon roar, like thunder from the heavens, resounded from all directions of the frigid island!
Not one, not two, but the roars of hundreds of dragons converged together.
An invisible sound wave was formed, impacting the ice surface of the frigid island.
The entire island trembled violently!
"Boom!!!"
The seawater surrounding the Arctic Island was churning wildly like boiling water!
Hundreds of meters high waves rose from the ground, like white mountains, crashing violently against the icy shore of the Arctic Island! Spray splashed everywhere, the frozen coastline collapsed instantly, and the ice shattered into countless pieces, falling into the sea!
The entire Arctic Island was shaking violently, with ice and snow flying everywhere!
In the next instant, the powerful figures of the Frost Island took to the air, watching the countless serpents swaying in the sky.
"The Black Sea Dragon Palace?"
"Black Sea Dragon Palace, how dare you invade my Arctic Island!"
Those powerful individuals were furious.
The Arctic Island and the Black Sea Dragon Palace must have been in a state of peace.
There were even marriage alliances.
Unexpectedly, this stinking worm attacked with such a huge commotion.
The Xuanqing dragon opened its mouth, and its voice resounded throughout the heavens and earth.
"Elders, please do not misunderstand. I, the Crown Prince, have only come to settle a personal score."
"I, the Crown Prince, only need two people, and I will not do anything unrelated to this matter."
Those powerful figures had not yet spoken.
A disheveled figure darted out of the western pavilion of the Ice Palace like an arrow released from a bow!
It was Mei Ling!
The moment she heard the dragon's roar, she knew her savior had arrived!
The madness and resentment on her face were instantly replaced by pitifulness.
She endured the excruciating pain on her face, leaped up, and staggered as she flew toward the direction from which the dragon's roar came.
There, led by Xuan Qing, stood the powerful dragon warriors!
"Xuanqing! Waaaaah..."
Mei Ling's voice was sharp and mournful, tinged with sobs, cutting through the swirling snow.
It reached Xuan Qing's ears precisely.
The purple-gold dragon, suspended in mid-air, suddenly lowered its head, its golden vertical pupils locking onto the approaching figure.
When Xuanqing saw Meiling's appearance clearly, his massive dragon body trembled violently!
Holy crap! Who the hell is this?
Mei Ling's hair was disheveled, and both sides of her face were swollen and covered with purplish bruises.
Dried bloodstains remained at the corners of his mouth, he spoke with a lisp, and drool dripped from his mouth.
This appearance is even uglier than the Black Sea's shrew!
Most dragons are attracted to good looks.
It depends on looks.
And it is also colored.
Xuanqing's heart was instantly filled with turbulent waves.
Oh shit!
He's been beaten to a pulp? Even his own mother wouldn't recognize him!
She was fairly good-looking; not stunningly beautiful, but pretty.
Now look what's happened, he's completely disfigured!
If we take this back, wouldn't it be a huge disgrace to the Black Sea Dragon Palace?
He barely suppressed the urge to slap that ugly monster to death.
With a movement, it transformed into human form.
He frowned as he watched Mei Ling rush towards him.
Mei Ling went straight to Xuan Qing, hugged his arm, and cried with tears streaming down her face.
"Your Highness, you've finally arrived! If you had come any later, I would have been tortured to death by that despicable couple! Waaaaah..."
She cried as she rubbed her head against Xuanqing's legs.
I tried to squeeze out a few tears.
Unfortunately, the wounds on his face were too painful, and all he could manage was a ferocious expression.
Xuanqing looked at the bloodstains that had been smeared on his magnificent dragon robe.
His stomach churned, and he barely suppressed the urge to kick her away.
"Make them come out!!" Xuan Qing wanted to finish quickly and then slip away.
The engagement must be broken off, and ridicule is inevitable.
Marrying a demon is worse than marrying her.
"It's Leng Ning! And her lover too!"
Mei Ling suddenly raised her head, her pitiful expression instantly replaced by resentment.
She pointed in the direction of the ice palace and roared, "They've hidden themselves!"
"They ganged up on me; that bitch Leng Ning is just jealous of me!"
"That bastard not only beat me, but also disfigured me! Your Highness, you must stand up for me!"
She embellished the story, portraying herself as a vulnerable woman being innocently bullied. Xuan Qing's face grew increasingly gloomy.
Regardless of whether Mei Ling's words were true or false, she was, after all, his fiancée in name only.
If word gets out that he's been beaten up like this, it'll be a slap in the face for him!
"Enough!" Xuan Qing abruptly interrupted her sobbing, a hint of impatience flashing in his eyes.
"I understand. Today, I will definitely seek justice!"
"Waaaaah..." Mei Ling sobbed.
Inwardly, however, she sneered: Leng Ning! Your death is near. Even your master can't protect you now. Who told you to actually make a move!
After crying for a while, Mei Ling suddenly remembered something and pointed in the direction of the side hall of the Ice Palace.
"Leng Ning, don't hide inside and be afraid to come out!"
"You think hiding will work? My fiancé is here! He's here to get revenge for me!"
The disciples on the Frozen Island were already bewildered.
The dragons came out of nowhere and caused such a commotion.
Upon hearing Mei Ling's words, an uproar immediately erupted!
"What? Senior Sister Mei Ling was injured by Senior Sister Leng and that handsome man?"
"No wonder Senior Sister Mei Ling's face was so swollen... She must have been jealous of Senior Sister Leng again, and went to provoke her, right?"
"Senior Sister Mei Ling's fiancé is the Crown Prince of the Black Sea Dragon Palace?! My God! We're doomed!"
The disciples were discussing this.
Mei Ling's tearful plea and outcry were undoubtedly telling everyone—this is not over!
Xuan Qing stood aside, watching Mei Ling throw a tantrum and curse like a shrew, his impatience growing stronger.
He, the fifth prince of the Black Sea Dragon Palace, actually led a large army to avenge such an ugly monster.
It would be so embarrassing to tell anyone!
But now that things have come to this, there's no turning back!
Xuan Qing snorted coldly, a ruthless glint in his eyes: "There's no way to hide, come out now!!"
The dragon's roar resounded once more, and the giant waves crashed against the shore even more fiercely!
