The Chaos Dragon Prince

Chapter 294 - Sneaking Out



Ancient Phoenix Holy Land's grand hall. 

Currently, in the luxurious hall were only two of the Ancient Phoenixes' highest figures.

One was the heroically beautifully Qiao Tu, while the other was her right-hand man Supreme Elder Huo Ming. 

The two were just discussing future plans of their disciples when suddenly a foreign contact ring glowed within Qiao Tu's pockets.

"It's her…" Qiao Tu's gaze flickered with slight uncertainty. 

Elder Ming similarly held a wary expression. He couldn't help but ask, "Is it really necessary to go meet with her? Ever since the incident with the Nightmare realm, I can't help but feel suspicious about those Huang Dragons. Even now, all other Holy Forces are in a state of chaos. And yet, only they are terribly subdued in their reactions. Clearly, they haven't taken any loss. In fact, they might have managed to gain some sort of benefit."

Elder Ming's great cautious wasn't wrong at all. 

When the Nightmare Realm massacre occurred, Holy Lands, Holy Clans, and Holy Martial Families were all shaken to their cores.

The remnant prowess of a legendary Heavenly Venerate master engraved itself on everyone's minds. 

Not even the Ancient Phoenix Holy Lands could ignore this kind of divine might.

Although, the death of three great geniuses still took precedent in many Elders' minds. 

As of now, constant streams of news was shared around numerous Holy Intelligence networks.

The Holy Lands that had luckily managed to survive gave an in-depth explanation of what they witnessed while also expressing honest terror over such a high-scale massacre. 

Standard times, these Holy Lands would relentlessly compete with each other. 

But in the face of absolute strength, it wasn't strange for the weak to find solace in each other.

One would think that the strongest Holy Land would similarly have a severe reaction to the un precedent massacre. 

But the Huang Dragons stayed strangely silent. 

Barely information came from them, and their members treated the large-scale event very lightly as if nothing was lost on their sides. 

Of course, with how tightly guarded the Huang Dragon hidden world is, nobody could confirm their true thoughts.

But unmistakable, slight suspicious formed in numerous minds. 

Qiao Tu clearly understood this. However, after only a few moments of contemplation, her eyes shined with resolution.

She said, "No matter their reaction, this is Supreme Ancestor direct orders. Apparently, from Ancestor's words, the Ancient Dragon Empress was similarly lucky to have no losses and are already thriving forward. The fact that they managed to locate the Divine Fiery Rose seemingly just after this incident is worthy of suspicion. But truthfully, the risks are minimal while the benefits are greatly worth it."

"Oh? How so? I wouldn't dare underestimate the Ancient Dragon Empress. Her reputation isn't just for show." Elder Ming warily said, just barely suppressing a shiver over sudden past memories.

Qiao Tu thoughtfully nodded though her determination didn't waver. "Indeed. Out of the Huang Dragons, she is the most dangerous. But she is also extremely shrewd and blunt. Her biases towards her grandchildren are evident, considering she up frontally declared to be their Dao protector. Even in the past, she underwent silent dealings with us for her precious grandchildren, completely disregarding the Huang Dragons own interest."

Pausing for a moment, a flicker of anticipation filled Qiao Tu's tone as she continued to say, "And above all, this can be a great opportunity for Liao Wu. The amount of Fire Law Marks in his Inner World and bloodstreams is unbelievably high, far surpassing the older generation of geniuses. With the Divine Fiery Rose, his cultivation can absolutely sky-rocket! If possible, I must secure this deal with the Ancient Dragon Empress."

As Elder Ming seriously listened, he found he couldn't really put up any more counters. 

In essence, he could argue more, but he clearly knows when Qiao Tu has her mind decisively made up, it was all but impossible to change it.

He realizes his position and decides to quickly think of just how the proceeding meeting will transpire. 

"Just when will you set out then? And for that matter, what place did she choose for it? As you said, with her shrewdness, I don't doubt she will find an opportunity to strike you down. Or at least weaken you."

"Of course, I'm similarly expecting that. And, wouldn't she expect that as well? I'll admit, my combat prowess is inferior to the Ancient Dragon Empress. But, in terms of World Spirit Master methods, Spirit Artficats, and other talismans, we won't lose out. If a devious trick does occur, I have the means of fighting and escaping. Furthermore, can't we also make our plans to gain the maximum amount of benefits all at once?"

Qiao Tu confidently smiled, her eyes flashing with devious glint. 

Her ambitions were shared with Elder Ming as his mind already ran thoughts for this upcoming meeting.

Unknown to everyone else, this would become the most critical meeting for the Ancient Phoenix Holy Land. 

… 

A Day later, Huang Dragon Imperial Palace. 

Within the Royal descendants' chambers, Huang Xun sat assimilated into a cultivation state, her signature black dragon sword in her lap.

Her mood was eerily calm, as if all news from the outside world didn't affect her at all. 

However, her cultivation didn't last long when Huang Dai entered her detection range.

Soon enough, Huang Dai strolled into Xun's room unannounced, but his face carried a troubling expression. 

Huang Dai couldn't help but blurt out, "This is pretty bad, Xun. It actually came so suddenly."

Huang Xun snapped her eyes open, but the black dragon sword away and stood to her feet while sighing. "Don't tell me that they're actually going through with it?"

"Tch." Huang Dai scornfully clicked his teeth. "That guy was right. Those Phoexnies truly are devious. Later today, Luo Nui and Feng Long really will try and secretly capture low-level Huang Dragons for supposedly more 'intel.' Their guts have been amazingly high ever since that incident."

"Indeed the Nightmare realm…." Huang Xun mysteriously trailed off, her expression twisting in thought. 

Unknowingly her thoughts linked to Cain, Kali, and Amber. She was about to speak her mind but held her tongue, knowing it won't lead to anything. 

Slightly shaking her head, she asked, "So, what were you thinking when coming here?"

Huang Dai picked up on the quick change of her expression but didn't question it. 

He instead shrugged, saying, "Well, I was hoping you would come to a decision. We certainly have the method to counter them, but…should we actually do it?"

"That's what I've been contemplating these days. That person is honestly showing sincerity with this cooperation. But at that same time, how can we trust so easily? This person has a very high chance to have his own hidden agendas and traps on both sides. The worst thing that can happen is for all of our clovers to be blown." Huang Xun analyzed. 

"So, should we just ignore him? It's not like we will lose out anything anyways." Huang Dai proposed. 

Huang Xun didn't immediately reply, seriously contemplating the decision. But, moments later, she didn't need long to decide as she truthfully spent days pondering about it. 

"No, we will go and at least obverse. As long we use World Spirit Master concealment techniques, we won't be discovered. And perhaps we can pick up on something new. Truthfully, I'd rather take the initiative than stay in the dark."

"I feel the same way." Huang Dai lightly smiled before his expression slowly tightened. "By the way, I know the answer probably won't change, but is there still no news from grandmother?"

"No. And even now, grandmother is still with Cain's group on this important event. Haaah~. Somehow, I feel as those three are only growing stronger after this huge event." 

A trace of envy subconsciously slipped into Huang Xun's tone.

Huang Dai didn't blame her for feeling this way. Even he knows he has evident envy towards Cain's group. 

Shaking his head of such thoughts, Huang Dai said, "Well, that's their lives, and this is ours. Come on, we might really find something good from our observation."

The Huang Dragon hidden world was located above a vast, crystal blue sea. 

Within the crystal sea was an unending amount of vicious sea beasts. 

These sea beasts came in all shapes and sizes.

Some were as massive houses and took ferocious appearance resembling killer sharks or whales. Except these sea beasts have large protruding teeth, glowing blood-red eyes, crystal blue scales, and other fantastical features.

Other sea beats were as small as mice but held unfathomable prowess that no peak mortal realm cultivator should ever consider going near. 

The whole crystal blue sea was filled with danger that God Galaxies inhabits are wary of.

Thankfully, the threats to divine realm cultivators are only hundreds of miles deep into the crystal sea. 

The surface only held danger for the mortal realms. 

When any Huang Dragons want to leave into the unclaimed territory, they would need to have some sort of carefulness when flying above the crystal sea.

As of now, two such Huang Dragons were swiftly flying above the crystal sea. These two wore oversized hoodies, taking the extra steps to cover their identities. 

They were Huang Dai and Xun.

Huang Dai and Xun's flight were mainly silent as they were on the lookout for an ambush. 

It was implausible, considering this was still close to the Huang Dragon hidden world. But Huang Dai and Xun were drilled that carelessness could be a fatal mistake.

The duo Huang Dragons were faint trails of light soaring through skies, splitting the air apart. 

Pressure from Heaven and Earth's Divine Essence couldn't restrict them at all.

Their speeds allowed them to traverse numerous miles within only a few minutes. 

After another minute of flight, Huang Dai and Xun suddenly stopped. Their Divine Sense detected several other auras merely half a mile from them. 

At this kind of distance, it would be more than easy for any Divine Origin cultivators to spread their Divine Sense detection at half a mile. A Spiritual Sea tempered by Divine Qi is thousands of times greater after all.

However, despite reaching a close distance, the auras up ahead seemingly didn't take notice of either Huang Dai or Xun. 

In fact, they outright ignore the royal siblings.

Huang Dai was full of praise. "Man, World Spirit Master really is amazing.. These guys also have concealment a method, but the Spirit detection charm makes it useless to us. Plus, this Spirit necklace concealment couldn't be more perfect for hiding!"
