Chapter 548: With dragons as arrows

When he saw that the barrier protecting the imperial palace was broken, Long Zhan's expression became pale. Only after a good while, he gritted his teeth and ordered his two thousand dark warriors to stall those prisoners. As for the rest of his dark warriors, he ordered them to return to their post in order to defend the palace.

The reason why Long Zhan didn't use these dark warriors before to attack those invading prisoners was because he didn't want to spend his precious resources on those prisoners. In his heart, only the Ximen Clan was his real opponent. As for these prisoners who were only pawns of the Ximen Clan to cause chaos in the imperial palace, they were just sacrificial preys.

Those two thousand killing machines who didn't know pain quickly replaced the imperial guards and snuffed out those prisoners.

When they saw that the situation was anything but reassuring, the prisoners had no choice but to gather together again. The insane attacks from those two thousand dark warriors increased the pressure on those prisoners by a lot. There was not a single person who wasn't injured.

At this moment, Long Zhan had already led the remaining imperial guards towards the walls in order to defend against the Ximen Clan's attack. Crown Prince Long Ying was already commanding the troops on the walls when Long Zhan arrived.

Long Yi was grinning in the sky. His 100,000 strong secret army as well as the 50,000 private soldiers from the Nangong and Dongfang Clan were formed up neatly one kilometer away from the walls of the imperial palace.

"What exactly happened here? How did the barrier suddenly break?" The complexion of Long Zhan was ghastly pale as he asked Crown Prince Long Ying.

"Father emperor, this son has no idea as well! It is probably Ximen Yu's doing." Long Ying resentfully glared at Ximen Yu who was floating in the air. Long Ying was dying to peel off Long Yi's skin and he wanted nothing more than to pull out all the tendons in his body.

It was indeed Long Yi who broke this barrier protecting the imperial palace. He had used those six thousand prisoners to attract the attention of everyone as he approached the walls of the imperial palace in the chaos. He cracked the barrier without anyone knowing.

Naturally, this protective barrier was not an ordinary barrier. Long Yi needed an entire night to break it. If someone had discovered him midway, then all of his efforts would be wasted. He was lucky that his tracks were covered by the huge blizzard the night before. When adding on the chaos in the imperial palace caused by the prisoners, there were no guards who discovered him. If Long Zhan wanted to blame anyone, he could only blame his imperial guards for not having strict military discipline. He could also blame the commanding officers who were too lazy to care about their men. However, was there a point to blame them now?

Long Zhan coldly watch those soldiers who were ready to attack the imperial palace. However, he was afraid in his heart as he was able to sense their sharp and unstoppable momentum. This was an elite army… Unfortunately for him, the elite army belonged to his army. Although he was worried, it was only for a moment. He knew that even though the protective barrier was broken, the walls of the imperial palace were tall and thick. Adding to the fact that the Ximen Clan couldn't afford to lose too many soldiers, Long Zhan knew that it wouldn't be easy for the Ximen Clan to achieve victory. As for magicians, although they could fly and attack from the sky, he had already prepared a defensive network in the air, so the main force would still be those soldiers on the ground. As long as they focused on defending, the Ximen Clan would lose a huge amount of soldiers. When the losses of the Ximen Clan reached a critical level, Long Zhan would use his trump card, which were dark warriors, to counterattack. The probability of him winning this war was still extremely high.

Merely, the plan could never overcome the changes. When Long Zhan was planning at this side, Long Yi nevertheless revealed a sinister smile. Who said that he wanted to lose soldiers when sieging the palace?

"Elder Pierre, Leguxiya, come on out." Long Yi suddenly shouted. Along with loud and clear dragon roars which came from the depths of the cloud layers in the sky, two dragons flew out. One black and one golden dragon which were both more than 100 meters long hovered around Long Yi. Seeing this, the defending soldiers were so scared that they became deathly pale and their legs trembled.

"Heavens, could it be that the Ximen Clan raises dragons? According to legends, dragons have the power to destroy the heaven and exterminate the earth." A soldier standing on the wall said while trembling. Just sensing the dragon might coming from those two dragons scared him witless. Sweat poured down from his forehead.

"It seems like we are going to lose this battle for sure." A soldier thought. However, he only dared to think about it in his head. He didn't dare to speak out his thoughts at all. If his senior officer heard that, then blaming him for undermining the morale of the army, he might be hacked into pieces. As a matter of a fact, he was not the only person who was having such thoughts. Such thoughts involuntarily appeared in the hearts of many people and the morale of the entire army dropped sharply.

Long Zhan saw that the situation was anything but reassuring and he loudly shouted to Long Ying, "Crown Prince, what are you waiting for? It is the time to use that curse."

Long Ying came back to his senses as if awakening from a dream. Several dark magicians behind him took out a bottle which contained black mist in it and they started to chant an obscure incantation.

As for Long Yi, he simply observed everything and smirked. That Puppet Curse Magic was already gotten rid of by the Dark God.

Along with the incantation, the black mist within the bottle began to seethe violently. Long Yi stood calmly in the air as he looked at Long Ying with a sneer on his face.

"How can this be? Why isn't it working?" The complexion of Long Ying became pale as he retreated. He couldn't believe that this Puppet Curse Magic he had always been relying on was ineffective. He had been eagerly waiting for this moment for a few years. He eagerly wished to see the suffering and madness of Long Yi. He also wanted to see Long Yi killing people on his own side before he died in a huge explosion. However realized that everything was nothing more than a pipe dream now.

Although Long Zhan was somewhat shocked, after the failure of the blood spirits implanted within the bodies of Qing Wu and Piao Xue, he was somewhat prepared for this result. As a result, he wasn't too shocked.

"Elder Pierre, come on." Long Yi looked at the helpless Elder Pierre and said with a smile.

"Boy, our Dragon Race has an agreement that we cannot interfere with the matters of the Blue Waves Continent. Are you trying to make things difficult for me?" Pierre bitterly said. The sight of a dragon talking in a human language was a bit strange.

"Did I ask you to interfere? This Young Master only wants to borrow your body, nothing else. You just accept it passively… This doesn't violate your agreement." Long Yi rubbed the beard stubbles on his chin as he said with a bad smile. With a wave of his hand, 10,000 private soldiers separated from the main army as they pushed a war chariot where a crossbow was mounted. The crossbow was more than ten meters long.

"You... what do you want to do?" Pierre exclaimed.

"You will know soon. Right now, can you shrink your body a little?" Long Yi smiled and grabbed the dragon tail of Elder Pierre. After Elder Pierre shrunk to a size of around 20 meters, Long Yi placed him into the launching groove of the crossbow. Aiming at the entrance, Long Yi activated the mechanism to release the crossbow and Elder Pierre changed into a streak of black light as he shot towards the wall.

Along with the sound of an explosion, a dust and sand cloud rose as the fragments of entrance gate flew all around. No one had imagined that just the collision of Elder Pierre would be this powerful. The army on the side of the Ximen Clan was elated. As for the army on Long Zhan's side, they were frightened.

"I didn't expect for a dragon to be such a good arrow. Unfortunately, that gap is still a bit small." Long Yi thought aloud as he looked at the quietly retreating Lugexiya.

"Don't! Unlike that old man, my skin is not that thick and my muscles are not that rough. You should look for other dragons." Looking at Elder Pierre swaying as if he was drunk, Lugexiya fearfully shook his head.

"Then, you mean to say that I should go and look for your big sister Midi'er?" Long Yi raised his eyebrows as he questioned. He looked at Lugexiya as if he was looking at useless trash and he said, "Your big sister had risked her life to protect you. I never expected that you would be such a heartless and ungrateful fellow. You instantly sold your big sister… Where did your conscience go?"

Lugexiya hastily shook his head. Although Midi'er often bullied him and trashed him, she would always step forward and protect him at the critical moment. In all honestly, Leguxiya was absolutely not that kind of dragon.

Without Leguxiya knowing, Long Yi had already limited his choice between him and Midi'er. He had no choice but to grit his teeth and to shrink down his body. He became Long Yi's second dragon arrow.

"So obedient." Long Yi smirked before placing Lugexiya into the launching groove. With a wave of his hand, Lugexiya shot towards the wall.

This time, Long Zhan was prepared. They used magic spells to attack Lugexiya who had changed into golden light.

Along with another loud explosion sound, a large piece of the wall collapsed. The collision of Lugexiya unexpectedly created a ten-meter wide gap and many soldiers standing on the wall were also buried. As for Long Yi, he admired the toughness of the dragon body.

"Who did I provoke to fall into this situation?" Leguxiya transformed into his human form and stood up as his body swayed about. Now, some places of his golden scale armor were frozen and some places had burnt marks. Although he had only suffered some superficial damage, it was quite painful for him.

Lugexiya complained and he suddenly sensed a violent fluctuation of magic elements behind him. Turning around, he looked and saw that the sky was covered with magic arrows which were made from different elements raining towards him.

***, Leguxiya swore in dragon language before running away. He was very intelligent. When he collided against the wall, he didn't actively do anything. If he attacked right now, he would be doomed as he would break the agreement of the Dragon Clan. If his father emperor found out about his actions, his old man would definitely not let him off lightly.

The effect Long Yi wanted had already been achieved. Just the appearance of Pierre and Leguxiya had already suppressed the morale of Long Zhan's side to a very low point. In addition, he was successfully able to breach open a ten meters wide gap on the wall. This was better than him sieging the imperial palace with his troops.

Long Yi watched the soldiers of the opposite side trying to block the breach in panic and smiled. He then waved his hands and the Shadow Cavalry Regiment quickly stood in the front, ready to attack. The priests of magician corps began to use blessing magic to buff them. As for Long Yi, his hand flashed with a cyan light and the light surrounded the dozen or so cavalrymen who were ready to charge.

"Charge!" Long Yi shouted loudly and pointed a huge sword in his hand forward. Then, this Shadow Cavalry Regiment rapidly marched forward.

Chapter 549: Things come to their proper settlemen

When the Shadow Cavalry Regiment began to charge, the archers of the private army began to shoot arrows to suppress the soldiers on the walls of the imperial palace. The magicians also began to display their might.

Very quickly, the Shadow Cavalry Regiment tore through the infantry defense lineup of the enemy. Their dazzling spear harvested the lives of many imperial guards.

"Archers and magicians, continue to suppress the enemy. As for everyone else, push forward and cut off the head of Long Zhan!" Seeing as the cavalry regiment was successful, Long Yi smiled and ordered all soldiers to rush into the palace.

Long Yi looked all around and saw the fake Long Zhan and crown prince Long Ying retreating in a hurry. How was it possible for Long Yi to allow them to escape? As the saying goes, to catch brigands, first catch their king. As long as their head fell, Long Yi didn't believe that the fighting will of the rest of the soldiers wouldn't collapse.

Long Yi rushed towards those two people and he suddenly used his seven colored magic douqi to attack which looked just like a beautiful rainbow streaking across the sky.

The imperial guards surrounding those two got together to form a human barricade when they saw Long Yi's attack. However, it seemed as though they were unable to do anything about it. About a dozen heads flew in the sky and blood sprayed all over the ground of the imperial palace.

They were only able to delay Long Yi for a moment. However, a moment was all Long Zhan required. In an instant, Long Yi was surrounded by dark warriors who came out from nowhere. Long Zhan and Long Ying took advantage of this time in order to escape far away from Long Yi.

The sudden appearance of 20,000 dark warriors made Long Yi lose his perfect opportunity to kill off both Long Zhan and Long Ying at the same time. These emotionless killing weapons without any feeling of pain and whose strength was comparable to Swords Masters were too doughty. With their appearance, miserable screams resounded all around as the private army instantly suffered heavy damage.

The heart of Long Yi tightened, Mu Hanyan, where did that woman die off to? Didn't she say that she had a way to deal with these dark warriors? She wouldn't betray Long Yi at the critical juncture, would she? With more than 20,000 dark warriors along with more than 100,000 soldiers on the side of Long Zhan, the side of Long Yi was already in a position of absolute disadvantage.

Long Zhan and Long Ying escaped outside the area affected by the battle and looked at the battle between both sides from far away.

"Father emperor, fortunately, we have the dark warriors. Now, the Ximen Clan is done for!" Long Ying wiped the cold sweat from his forehead as he rejoiced in his heart. That attack of Long Yi had badly scared him.

"Yes, the Ximen Clan will be done for. However, the imperial Long Clan will be erased from this world earlier than the Ximen Clan." The eyes of Long Zhan shone with a strange light as he stared at Long Ying and said.

"Father... father emperor, you..." Crown Prince Long Ying was frightened in his heart and he involuntarily retreated two steps. He suddenly felt that his father emperor has changed into another person.

"Weren't you very interested in curse magic? Now you can make a guess. What kind of curse magic did I place on your body?" The smile of Long Zhan became sinister and a hint of indescribable fanaticism appeared along with his smile. Finally, the Fierce Tiger Dynasty which was destroyed by Heavenly Emperor Tianlong more than five hundred years ago would appear once again in front of the world.

"You are not my father emperor, who are you?" Long Ying calmed down and asked in a stern voice.

"You cannot even make this simple deduction. You are truly stupid beyond redemption… It won't be a surprise if the Violent Dragon Empire gets destroyed in your hands." Long Zhan roared with laughter.

The complexion of Long Ying changed abruptly and his entire body suddenly trembling as he pointed at Long Zhan and said in a shaky voice, "It's you! You are that missing Military Advisor. What did you do to my father emperor?"

Long Zhan… No. He should be called the Military Advisor now. He opened his mouth to reveal a sinister smile as he said, "Do you still need to ask this question? Since you already know about my identity, you can rest easy and go to accompany your father emperor!"

"Guards, guards! All of you heard him! Why are you still not arresting this rebel for me?" Long Ying shouted to the nearby guards with a pale face. Unfortunately, these guards stood still as if they heard nothing. Clearly, they were no longer loyal to the Violent Dragon Empire.

Military Advisor smirked and began to mutter an incantation. Along with that chanting sound, Long Ying suddenly began to feel pain in his mind. He felt as if millions of worms were crawling towards every part of his body from his brain. At this time, his consciousness was still extremely clear. As a result, the kind of spiritual and ** torture was unbearable.

"I will kill you!" Long Ying roared madly and rushed towards the Military Advisor. One step, two steps… All of a sudden, the skin and flesh on Long Ying's body started to fall to the ground and it appeared rotten. It was very terrifying.

When Long Ying was in front of the Military Advisor, all the skin and flesh on his body had already fallen to the ground. The only part of the Crown Prince's body left was his bloody skeleton. Finally, it fell backward and crashed into the ground.

By the time Long Ying died, Long Yi had already summoned Long Two, Little Three, the Fire Qilin, and the Violent Lightning Beast. There were also several hundred bloodthirsty blood-red spirits.

Long Two's blood scythe danced all around as it harvested the lives of everyone around him. In addition, he rushed into the midst of the dark warriors as he chopped off the heads of more than a hundred dark warriors.

Meanwhile, the holy fire of the Fire Qilin, the holy light impact of Little Three and continuous lightning strikes from the Violent Lightning Beast along with a dense bloody baleful mist coming from those blood-red spirits also caused great damage. The situation on the battlefield changed once again.

Military Advisor watched everything in a trance as if he had fallen down to the bottom of a valley from a place high in the clouds. The sudden change from great happiness to great sorrow was unbearable.

"Military Advisor, surrender." Long Yi who had already flown over to the front of Military Advisor said.

"Surrender? Hehe, from the moment I began to plan this, I already planned for failure. Even if I lose, I will not let your Ximen Clan off easily." The expression of the Military Advisor became indifferent. It seemed as though he didn't care about his life or death anymore.

At that moment, the entire Soaring Dragon City suddenly shook as if an earthquake had occurred. Sad and shrill screams resounded throughout the city. Long Yi was startled and he flew up to look. However, the moment he saw what was happening in the city, Long Yi became so angry that his eyes turned red. In Soaring Dragon City, at an unknown time, a strange army of more than 100,000 soldiers had appeared. They scattered all around the city, wantonly massacring ordinary residents of Soaring Dragon City. No matter old, weak, or young, the soldiers killed everyone. Basically, these 100,000 soldiers were not soldiers. They were even worse than a group of ferocious bandits.

"You didn't guess wrong. These people are not soldiers. They are a group of bandits raised by me. After taking my heart-shattering pills, they turned insane. Although their fighting power isn't high, they can easily kill normal people. Hahaha, today, I will use blood to dye this entire Soaring Dragon City red! I'll make Soaring Dragon River change into a bloody river." Military Advisor laughed wildly like a mad dog.

The corners of Long Yi's mouth twitched. Although the appearance of the god beasts had changed the tide of the battle, this fight wouldn't be over in a short amount of time. Long Yi basically didn't have the ability to stop the bandits from killing the people in the city. This Military Advisor was truly ruthless enough.

Long Yi narrowed his eyes, emitting ice-cold killing intent. The ruthless massacre of common people… Long Yi couldn't accept this.

"You should die." Long Yi spat out these three words and attacked the heart of this Military Advisor using his seven colored magic douqi.

Military Advisor lowered his head and he looked at the bloody hole in his chest. He had a strange smile on his face as he fell backward.

"Father emperor, don't..." At that time, a sad scream came from the sky and a fiery red figure suddenly flew over. She supported the body of the Military Advisor.

"Ling'er." Long Yi was startled in his heart as he looked at the heartbroken Long Ling'er.

"Second brother." A soft call caused Long Yi to turn around and he looked at Ximen Wuhen who was wearing a snow-white priest robe behind him. At this moment, her long hair was fluttering in the air which made her look even more unearthly. Beside her, Lin Na whom he had not seen for a long time, stood beside Ximen Wuhen.

The two women looked at Long Yi before shifting their gaze to the crying Long Ling'er. They had never thought that they would reunite under this kind of situation. Soaring Dragon City was no longer bustling like before. It had changed from heaven to hell. Especially for the poor Long Ling'er. She looked at her father emperor die in front of her eyes and he was even killed by her beloved.

"Why did this happen? Why did this happen?" Long Ling'er covered the bleeding chest of the Military Advisor and she muttered in a daze.

"Ling'er, listen to me." Long Yi walked over to the front of Long Ling'er, but Long Ling'er looked at him with a confused expression on her face. She looked at Long Yi as though he was a stranger.

"He..." Long Yi had just opened his mouth but black clouds suddenly flew over from the west. Looking carefully, it was a group of wind condors.

Green arrows rained down from the sky, shrouding the entire Soaring Dragon City. The ferocious bandits who were randomly killing the common people were pinned to the ground by those arrows. At that moment, Long Yi discovered that there were people were sitting above that crowd of wind condors. They were elves who were holding elven bows.

Just after the elves had shot two rounds of arrows, a crowd of humanoid birds came from the south. They were people from the Winged Clan. They used their wind blade magic and instantly wiped out more than half of those bandits.

"Boss, Old Bull is here!" A heaven shaking roar resounded as Barbarian Bull led the warriors of the Barbarian Bull Clan into Soaring Dragon City. At the same time, the warriors of the Lion Clan also arrived.

Barbarian Bull rushed to the palace as he held Greenstone Rule in his hand. As he made his way to the imperial palace, he waved his Greenstone Rule which was surrounded with a pale green and golden light. Anyone who was touched by the light had their bodies crushed. No one was able to withstand Barbarian Bull's might.

Long Yi smiled as he sighed in relief. Fortunately, they arrived in the nick of time. Otherwise, all the common people in Soaring Dragon City would have truly been killed.

With the help of a few races, the situation quickly stabilized. Almost all the mad bandits in Soaring Dragon City were killed after a few rounds of attacks. When the guards in the imperial palace saw that the Military Advisor had died, they lost their fighting will. The overwhelming majority laid down their arms and surrendered. The remaining dark warriors were also destroyed very quickly. Now, there was only a thick layer of corpses on the ground.

Chapter 550: The arrival of the Elf Queen

After snowing for several days, on the day when the internal fight in Soaring Dragon City ended, the layers of clouds in the sky began to disperse. Even the sun which had been hidden for several days joined in on the fun. Merely, under the sunlight, Soaring Dragon City looked bloody and desolate.

There were corpses everywhere on the thick layer of snow as blood dyed the land red. The entire world which used to be white and pure was changed into a gloomy dark red. Many common people who lost their family members were crying their hearts out and there were even more people who had a lifeless look on their face after experiencing the wanton massacre. They knew that the heaven above had already changed, however, none of them knew their fate.

The war which had been brewing for a long time had finally erupted. Counting the total number of casualties from the soldiers to the common people, there were at the very least 500,000 people who died. This was simply a shocking figure.

Right now, the most bustling place in the whole of Soaring Dragon City would be the Ximen Residence. Long Yi was staying in his own courtyard as he looked at the melting snow under the sunlight. He had a dazed expression on his face. After the death of the Military Advisor, he didn't bother about anything else. Such a tragic and brutal war… Even though his deposition was tough and tensile, it was impossible to say that he was not affected by it.

"Mu Hanyan..." The black pupils of Long Yi shrunk as a painful expression appeared on his face. When he thought about her, a feeling of betrayal welled up in his heart. Although this betrayal was already within his expectation, when it happened for real, he became so angry that he almost lost control of himself.

Did he trust in Mu Hanyan too much? He knew perfectly that her objective was not simple. However, he still decided to believe in her. Or so to say, he subconsciously didn't want to think that she would harm him.

In the center of this courtyard, Long Yi was standing alone. Barbarian Bull and Li Qing were a bit further away chatting idly. In front a window of a winged room, there were several beautiful women. Intentionally or unintentionally, they were watching Long Yi.

"This is really infuriating… Why is that hateful fellow pretending to think about something deep?" A beautiful elf in an elven dress carried an elven bow on her back as she muttered in dissatisfaction. She glared at Long Yi who was standing in the middle of the courtyard in a trance. She was Nika and she was the one who led the elven guards to help the Ximen Clan.

"He is not pretending. I can feel that his heart is at unrest." Murong Shuyu refuted. Looking at the current appearance of Long Yi, she felt anguished in her heart. Even she couldn't understand Mu Hanyan's sudden disappearance. She didn't give them a single reason before she disappeared. Murong Shuyu could clearly feel Long Yi's deep affection for that woman.

Ximen Wuhen shook her head and sighed inwardly. Why did they have to fight wars? Was power truly so tempting? Throughout the ages, how many people went crazy after obsessing over power? How many of them lost their life? As a matter of a fact, she understood this second brother of hers. He just yearned for an unrestrained freedom. However, it was difficult for him to separate himself from the conflicts happening in the Blue Waves Continent and he happened to be the leading force of the conflict.

Watching Long Yi, a hint of confusion flashed through Ximen Wuhen's clear eyes. However, the confusion disappeared in a moment and her holy and pure became all the more intense. She appeared just like a fairy who was freed from the worldly affairs. All of the other women couldn't help but cast a sidelong glance at her. The only thing they didn't know was that the more intense the holy and pure aura around Ximen Wuhen, the stronger the suppression of her true feelings. It was somewhat unimaginable. How can the suppression of worldly desires and feelings cause one's temperament to become more refined? Perhaps, this was a special case which happened when something turned into its complete opposite after reaching the extreme opposite. In any case, this was happening to Ximen Wuhen. Merely, she was the only one who knew how deep her feelings were for Long Yi.

All of a sudden, two red shadows landed in front of Long Yi.

"Yu, tell me, that person, was he truly not my father emperor?" The eyes of Long Ling'er were red and swollen and she stared at Long Yi with expectation in her gaze.

Long Yi quickly straightened his thoughts and he forcibly suppressed the rage and frustration in his heart. Nodding his head, he said, "Of course, he is not. Didn't you hear that in person?"

At that time, after Long Yi had used his seven colored magic douqi to pierce through the heart of the Military Advisor, Long Ling'er had blankly held the corpse of the Military Advisor for a long time. However, Long Yi managed to sense a hint of fluctuation coming from the body and he immediately felt that something was wrong. He quickly re-examined the Military Advisor's body but to his surprise, the shadow of his body came back to life. It strangled Long Ling'er's neck and the shadow said, "Today, everyone who has the surname 'Long' shall be erased from this world." Long Yi immediately used his spirit power to deal with this shadow before feeding it to the blood-colored spirits.

"Where is my father emperor? Is he imprisoned by this Military Advisor? However, where could he be? I looked everywhere in the imperial palace but I found nothing…" Long Ling'er said.

"He might have run away. He might have left for a place where no one knew him and he hid his identity." Long Yi smiled with great difficulty. He knew that Long Ling'er was deceiving herself. She was obviously capable enough to guess Long Zhan's fate the moment she saw the Military Advisor. She was simply unwilling to believe in the truth. It was just like the situation with Long Yi, where he didn't want to believe that Mu Hanyan would betray him at the critical moment.

"I also think so..." Long Ling'er muttered and she looked at Long Yi. Her eyes were suddenly filled with tears as she rushed into Long Yi's embrace. As she choked with sobs, she said, "I'm sorry."

Long Yi hugged Long Ling'er and soothingly patted her back. Just like how she was drawing warmth from his body… Couldn't he also draw warmth from her? The matters of Mu Hanyan could go to hell.

At one side, Lin Na smiled as she looked at the two people who were hugging each other. She was happy for her close sister and also was somewhat disappointed in her heart after recalling about the matter which happened in Mea Principality with Long Yi.

Later, after she joined the allied forces along with Long Ling'er and Ximen Wuhen, her view on the world changed. She didn't want to deceive herself by saying she had no feelings for Long Yi. She also knew that many women had some feeling for Long Yi, so perhaps, she didn't have a place in Long Yi's heart.

Perhaps, Lin Na's complicated feelings were detected by Long Yi and he looked at her with a smile on his face. In response, Lin Na swung her little fists at him as though she was prepared to fight against him. She turned and walked away from Long Yi with swollen arrogance.

In the third month of the 8790 year of the Blue Waves Calendar, the 300,000 soldiers from the beastmen clan were deterred by Sharman and Crystal. They used their identity of people from the Dragon Race to stop the 300,000 soldiers. They were actually afraid to cross the border frontier as the beastmen clan were innately afraid of people from the Dragon Clan. A week later, the Bimeng Clan gritted their teeth and were prepared to forge ahead despite the two dragons in their way. However, they received the news of Long Zhan's defeat all of a sudden. Meanwhile, Ximen Nu had rushed over to the western border to aid the local troops. The moment they got the news, the Bimeng Clan started to retreat hastily. However, the soldiers from the Violent Dragon Legion pursued them all the way. In an extremely short period of one month, both the Sand Wave Kingdom and the Enlightened Hero Principality which had openly aided the beastmen clans were completely exterminated.

On the fourth month of the same year, the troops of the beastmen clan that wanted to cross the Blue Waves River and retreat to their supreme headquarter encountered the attack of the allied army led by Beitang Yu. Turning back, they realized that the army of the Violent Dragon Empire was waiting for them.

Under the attack from both sides, the beastmen army lost one-third of their soldiers in the Blue Waves River. The Patriarch of the Bimeng Clan was slaughtered by Tyrant Bear in this battle. After the battle, the Fox Clan, under the leadership of Bertha, began to take over the authority of the beastmen clan.

On the fifteenth day of the fifth month of the 8790 year of the Blue Waves Calendar. That was the day when Ximen Nu would ascend to the throne. He would be coroneted on this day and inherit the throne of the Violent Dragon Empire. He would also take over the territory of the former Proud Moon Empire, becoming the Blue Waves Emperor. As for the name of the empire, it would still be called Violent Dragon. At that time, all the races of the Blue Waves Continent were invited to attend the ceremony. In addition, new laws and decrees would be issued.

At this moment, there were still five days before Ximen Nu would be coronated. Long Yi was playing with Little Shuxian and Niur in the Ximen Residence. Every time he saw this small niece running all over the place without any worries, he would think about the future. When she became a little older and learned that her father and mother had both died, would she still be able to smile so happily? When Long Ying had activated the Puppet Curse Magic, although he was completely fine, his big brother Ximen Tian died after killing his wife. At that night, Long Yi saw that his father stayed in his big brother's room the entire night.

"My husband, save me..." At that time, Feng Ling ran out of the house with a loud shout. Behind, a group of laughing women was pursuing her. Each and every one of them was a matchless beauty, enrapturing Long Yi.

Long Yi looked at these women and sighed in his heart. Taking a look, he saw the sisters, Feng Ling and Shui Ruoyan, Si Bi, Liuli, Liuxu, Qing Wu, Piao Xue, Yu Feng, Nangong Xiangyun, Long Ling'er, Ximen Wuhen, Nika, Murong Shuyu, Ou Yala, Sharman and Crystal. Although not all of them were his women, when so many beauties gathered together, any man would be able to die happy. Listening to their sweet voice was a kind of great enjoyment.

Feng Ling hid behind Long Yi, but the others rushed over as well. Long Yi was dazzled but he was unable to differentiate who was who. Since he was a brave man who took advantage of ladies whenever he could, he used both of his hands to climb over peaks and jump over gorges. He made all of the women to scream out repeatedly. As fists rained down on him, he had no choice but to cover his head and sneak away like a rat. One should know that there were four she-T.Rex in the crowd. It wasn't a joke when they wanted to beat him up.

When Long Yi walked out of the Ximen Residence, he saw that Soaring Dragon City was bustling with people everywhere. It seemed that this city was even more bustling than before, which made him sigh with emotion. One might well say that the current Ximen Clan had truly reached the apex of power. Even though the Nalan Empire didn't fall under the territory of the Violent Dragon Empire, it was after considering the thoughts of the people from the Nalan Empire. It was impossible for them to accept that their nation changed into a part of another country in a day. They needed a period of time to get used to it. However, the power of the Ximen Clan had already extended to every single corner of the Blue Waves Continent. If could be said that the current Ximen Clan was considered the heavens above the Blue Waves Continent. A sneeze from the Ximen Clan would be akin to a flood.

Outside the city gate, guards were running between the imperial palace and posthouse as they continuously delivered letters of the arrival of different people. Many common people were shocked to learn about the identities of the guests. There were remarks everywhere about the illustrious identity of these guests who were here to congratulate the Ximen Clan.

"The Elf Queen and Elf Princess have arrived." A messenger soldier agitatedly shouted while dashing on horseback.

When the arrival of the Elf Queen and the Elf Princess was announced, the entire Soaring Dragon City went into an uproar. They had long head about the beauty of the elves and all of the citizens became restless. Countless people swarmed at the city gate and main streets, wanting to get even a glimpse of the Elf Queen and Elf Princess. One should know that Elf Clan usually remained hidden in the Elven Forest in Hengduan Mountains. Other than the rare case where a few elves would leave the Elven Forest in order to temper themselves, they would rarely appear in the Blue Waves Continent. This time, the Elf Clan broke their rule. Not only did they dispatch elven guards to help the Ximen Clan, even the Elf Queen and the Elf Princess appeared to participate in the coronation ceremony for Ximen Nu. Many people started to speculate about the relationship between the Elf Clan and the Ximen Clan.

The heart of Long Yi shook. He was in the midst of the crowd as he raised his head to look at the entrance of the city. Before long, a group of Soaring Dragon City's guards cleared the path from the city gates. The guards a;; wore brightly colored armor and it was impossible not to notice them. In the middle of them, there was a team of several dozen elves. They were wearing exquisite and beautiful elven armor. The male elves were handsome and the female elves were extremely beautiful. Of course, there were exceptions. The seven great elders of the elf clan were pretending to be dignified even though they face was filled with wrinkles.

From far away, Long Yi could see the Elf Queen and Lu Xiya. They were surrounded by a group of elves. Even a retard would be able to guess their identities by looking at their temperament and appearance. It didn't matter if one was a man, woman, old, or young. As long as they laid eyes on the Elf Queen and Lu Xiya, they would be mesmerized from the bottom of their heart.

Elves innately had a natural air around them and their temperament was also tranquil and comfortable, just like a spring breeze. Many people would not forget their appearance throughout their lives.

"Silly girl, what are you looking at?" Seeing as Lu Xiya was looking everywhere, the Elf Queen smiled and asked.

"I... Nothing, Soaring Dragon City is so flourishing!" Lu Xiya said in a daze.

"No need to look. He won't be here. Now, the news of our arrival might have just been reported. He will definitely appear after we reach the posthouse." The Elf Queen smiled. How could she not know the thoughts of her daughter? Even though they had been separated for a few years, this girl was still pining for that cheeky fellow.

"Oh... But, I can feel that he is nearby." Lu Xiya replied.

"Well, don't think so much, you have already waited for so long, can't you wait for a bit more? He... Eh..." Elf Queen consoled with a smile. However, before she was able to finish her sentence, she caught sight of a familiar figure from the corner of her eye. Turning her head, she looked at that figure carefully. In the crowd, there was someone looking at the both of them with a smile on his face. Who else could he be other than that bad boy Long Yi?

Lu Xiya followed the gaze of her mother, the Elf Queen, and she saw Long Yi. The moment she laid eyes on him, a light flashed in her eyes and her beautiful face flushed red in excitement. At this moment, she was so excited that her mind was in chaos.

"Long Yi!" After a few seconds, Lu Xiya screamed excitedly as she rushed towards Long Yi.

When the crowd saw that Lu Xiya was running towards them, they made a path for her without hesitation. Only Long Yi remained in his place as he spread open his arms. He had a warm smile on his face as he looked at Lu Xiya who was rushing towards him.

In front of so many people. Lu Xiya rushed into Long Yi's embrace. They hugged each other tightly as though there were no other people around them.

A faint fragrance of nature entered the nose of Long Yi. This was the aura he had not felt for a long time. With Lu Xiya in his bosom, Long Yi felt as though he was dreaming. After all, it had already been a very long time since they had seen each other.

The reaction of Lu Xiya was even more intense. She tightly hugged Long Yi's waist and it seemed as though she wanted to be stuck to him for the rest of her life. That yearning for him was a kind of sweet torment. Now, it was an essential part of her memories. After recalling that yearning she had for him, she felt pain as if her heart was torn apart. Often, she would wake up in the middle of the night in the past and discover that there were tears all over her face.

Now, she could finally hug him once again. He was no longer an illusion of her memories but he was actually standing in front of her. After feeling his existence and smelling the familiar scent coming from his body, Lu Xiya was so happy that she nearly passed out.

"My little elf, I really missed you." Long Yi whispered into Lu Xiya's pointy ear.

"Me too." The entire body of Lu Xiya suddenly softened when the warm breath of Long Yi blew into her ear. Her mind became hazy soon. Perhaps, after seeing Long Yi again after such a long period of time, she was unable to remain clear-headed.

The on-looking crowds silently looked at these two people. Only after a long time, someone applauded and started to cheer as though they had been awakened from a dream. The scene of these two people hugging together was too glorious, it looked everlasting and unchanging even if the seas were to run dry and rocks were to crumble. People were involuntarily immersed in it and even their emotions seemed to overflow.

"That man is truly fortunate, he actually got the favor of the Elf Princess! Who exactly is he?" A man at one side of the street asked his companion.

"Do you live under a rock? You don't even recognize the second young master of the Ximen Clan! Now, he is the only son of the Ximen Patriarch." His companion said with disdain.

"Then, wouldn't that make him the crown prince? No wonder, no wonder." The man was shocked but calmed down immediately afterward. If someone like this didn't deserve this devastatingly beautiful Elf Princess, who else would be worthy of her?

"Right, no wonder! No wonder the Elf Clan helped the Ximen Clan. They are actually related by marriage. Second Young Master Ximen is even able to obtain such a hard to come by girl… He is truly amazing. I made up my mind, from this day onwards, Second Young Master Ximen will be my idol." Another boorish man made a big fuss.

"Second Young Master Ximen, kiss her!" Suddenly, someone among the crowd began to cheer.

"Kiss her, kiss her..." These words instantly ignited the enthusiasm of everyone and they started to chant loudly.

Long Yi and Lu Xiya who were deeply immersed in their own world woke up with a start when they heard the ruckus around them. Looking around, Long Yi recalled the time when he had proposed to Long Ling'er in the Mea Holy Magic Academy. Now, they were regarded as the legend of love in the academy. All of the junior and senior schoolmates, including teachers, talked about Long Yi's story with delight.

"Don't... No... Wu..." Seeing the cheeky smile on Long Yi's face, how could Lu Xiya not know what he was thinking? However, just as she opened her mouth in order to protest, Long Yi sealed her mouth with his.

Chapter 551: Secret forever

The cold moonlight covered the entire Soaring Dragon City. At this time, the accumulated snow had melted and a cool breeze was gently blowing across the treetops, swaying newly sprouted green leaves on the branches. It was a quiet and comfortable night.

Even though it was a quiet night, there was an intense battle between a man and woman in the winged room of the Ximen Clan. Rough heavy breathing sounds and sweet moans were resounding within the inner room, forming a soul-stirring spring night sonata.

"Little elf, you became bigger here…" Long Yi shook his waist while his claws continuously played with Lu Xiya's full breasts. That smooth and elastic feeling endlessly captivated him.

"Is… Is that so? Then, do you like them?" Lu Xiya opened her hazy eyes and hugged Long Yi's neck with her jade hands. She pressed her breasts against Long Yi's body and she wrapped her hands tightly around him.

Only allowed on Creativenovels.com

As for Long Yi, he felt as though his face was surrounded with soft and warm **. The fire of lust in him soared as though he had eaten some kind of aphrodisiac. He stuck out his tongue and teased the bright red bud at the peak of Lu Xiya's rounded breast. Before long, he was sucking on it which caused the little elf to moan loudly.

The world inside this room became pink and these two people got immersed in their ocean of desires. They created one tide after another.

Finally, Lu Xiya couldn't endure the lashing and she bit on Long Yi's shoulder. Her body stretched taut. Before long, she softly collapsed into his bosom. Now, her coquettish eyes were watery, she was exhaling a fragrance from her pink lips and her entire body was covered with a layer of enchanting pink luster. She was feeling a kind of extreme pleasure.

After **, the two people lazily lied on the big bed as they enjoyed the feeling of lying in each other's bosom.

"Long Yi..." Lu Xiya swayed in the bosom of Long Yi and called out.

"Call me your husband. Didn't you call me that in bed just now?" Long Yi smiled faintly and interrupted her.

"Okay, Lord Husband, I... I have a question I want to ask to you." Lu Xiya started to hesitate for some unknown reason.

Raising his eyebrows, Long Yi adjusted his posture so that Lu Xiya would be lying face to face with him. He asked with interest, "What question do you have to ask? Just say it."

"My husband, Nika and the others said that I am more and more like my mother, do you think so too?" Looking straight to the eyes of Long Yi, Lu Xiya asked.

"Well, let me take a good look... Yes. You take after her. It seems as though the effect of your seclusion for the past few years is pretty good." Long Yi somewhat understood why Lu Xiya suddenly asked this question. These past few years, although the appearance of Lu Xiya had no change, regardless of bearing or demeanor, she was becoming more and more like the Elf Queen. However, when she was in front of Long Yi, she changed back to her prior lively and cute deposition.

All of a sudden, Lu Xiya grabbed Long Yi's big hand and placed it on her plump breast. She asked with a face which was completely red, "My husband, didn't you say that I have grown here just a moment ago? Now tell me, how is it compared to my mother's?"

Long Yi was startled and he stared at Lu Xiya in a daze. Could it be that Lu Xiya noticed that ambiguous feeling between himself and the Elf Queen?

"Just now, when you were making love with me, weren't you thinking of my mother too?" Not giving Long Yi a chance to sort out his thoughts, the words of Lu Xiya nearly made him lose consciousness.

Long Yi calmed down with great difficulty and hastily said, "Darling, don't let your imagination run wild. The relationship between me and your mother is purer than spring snow."

"My husband, do you really not have any thoughts about my mother?" Lu Xiya stared at Long Yi with a pair of sparkling eyes.

"I..." Long Yi subconsciously wanted to answer no. However, he was unable to say anything.

"Mother is so beautiful and you are so promiscuous… I don't believe that you won't have any thoughts on my mother. When you were in the Elven Forest, you left the bed several times at night. When you got back, you had mother's fragrance all over your body." Lu Xiya bit her red lips and her eyes became watery.

Long Yi was flustered and he hastily consoled Lu Xiya. As it turned out, this little elf had already realized the ambiguous relationship between him and the Elf Queen. This was the first time she had said anything about it. No matter what the race was, this was a type of taboo feeling. There were only a few people who could accept this kind of feeling which violated their moral principles.

Seeing Lu Xiya's red eyes and her tears which were about to overflow, Long Yi had a bitter smile on his face. Just a moment ago, they were still making love… Why did the atmosphere change all of a sudden?

"Okay, my little elf, don't cry. Everything is my fault. I shouldn't have set my sights on your mother. Give me some time, I will definitely sort out everything." Long Yi tightly hugged Lu Xiya and promised her. In his heart, he was feeling a type of special pain. Perhaps, it was time to swing the sword to cut off all the ridiculous feelings in his heart. He wanted to return everything to normal. If he continued down this road, Lu Xiya might not be the only one who suffered. He couldn't be so selfish.

Lu Xiya watched Long Yi in a daze and asked in a low voice, "Are you saying that you will give up on your feeling towards my mother?"

"Yes." The pupils of Long Yi shrunk as he replied.

"But... My mother also likes you very much. On several occasions, I saw that mother stayed quietly alone and she was in a daze. I knew that she was missing you. It was just like how I missed you… Moreover, she often danced alone using the Lovesickness Sword Technique you taught her." Lu Xiya was perplexed as she said.

Long Yi was startled. Could it be that the Elf Queen herself also missed him? Even then, what could he do about it? Why was Lu Xiya even talking about this to him? Wouldn't this make him feel even more uncomfortable? Could it be... Long Yi thought of another possibility and a bit of hope appeared in his heart.

"As a matter of fact, my mother had always been very lonely. Merely, I was never aware of that. I had always taken the love and care of my mother for granted. However, I had never considered what my mother needed or what she wanted. My husband, am I very selfish?" Lu Xiya rubbed her cheek on against Long Yi's chest and she mumbled in grief.

"All the parents under the heaven are pitiful. They always think of their child first and not themselves. Little elf, you have truly matured." Long Yi caressed the beautiful hair of Lu Xiya and he thought of his parents. A warm feeling filled his heart.

"My husband… From now on, can you be good to my mother? Treat her just like how you treat me. No, treat her thousands of times better than me. As long as… As long as we don't tell anyone, it's fine. This will be our secret, our secret forever." The voice of Lu Xiya became smaller and smaller while she hugged Long Yi tighter and tighter.

Long Yi was shocked. He had never expected that Lu Xiya would actually approve of the relationship between him and the Elf Queen. It was already a relationship which went against the moral principles. Of course, it wasn't something which could be easily decided upon. Perhaps, she had struggled hard for a long time in her heart before making this decision.

"Darling… you are great. I, Long Yi, will take care of the both of you. If I don't do so, may heavenly lightning strike me! No… If I don't take care of both of you properly, then heavens will make me unable to become a man." Long Yi spoke some incoherent oaths. Originally he wanted to promise that he would be stuck by heavenly lightning and die a horrible death. However, he recalled that he was impervious to lightning as he had the inheritance of the Lightning God. As such, he changed the oath.

As if the knots in her heart were solved, Lu Xiya felt as though a weight was lifted off her heart and she took a few deep breaths. As long as other people didn't know, who would care about the mother and daughter pair sharing a husband?

"My husband, don't be too happy. Although I agree and my mother likes you very much, it's not a simple matter to make my mother accept you." Lu Xiya laughed. When she thought about the days to come, she had conflicting emotions. One part of her was undecided and another part of her was looking forward to it.

Long Yi also knew the character of the Elf Queen. She was a very rational woman. Even if she had some feelings that she should not have towards him, she would never do anything that crossed the boundary. Perhaps, that kind of ambiguous feeling that stirred their heartstrings was already at the limit of her endurance.

However, Long Yi had plenty of time. As long as she was accustomed to getting along with him, she would naturally fall to him bit by bit. At that time, as long as a chance appeared, everything would be done.

Thinking about the happy life in the future, Long Yi couldn't help smile.

"Bad fellow, you have such an evil smile on your face. Are you thinking about something bad again?" Lu Xiya pouted and pinched Long Yi's left thigh.

Long Yi hissed in pain and said, "Little elf, I wasn't thinking about your mother. Why on earth are you pinching me?"

Lu Xiya was so angry that she smacked Long Yi's little brother. She snorted, "Confess everything."

Long Yi smirked and said, "Your husband is intentionally controlling himself. Since you just alarmed my little brother, he is protesting now. What are you going to do about it?"

Lu Xiya took a quick glance and saw that the little b*****d between Long Yi's legs was erect. Her maiden heart jumped and her passion was instantly ignited.

Lu Xiya got up and bent over in front of Long Yi with her perfectly round ** raised high in the air. Now, a maiden's most private place was completely exposed to Long Yi.

"My husband, do you think that I resemble my mother?" Lu Xiya turned her head and asked. She knew that Long Yi liked this kind of conquering position the best.

The breathing of Long Yi stagnated and the look in his black pupils became deeper. Now, it appeared as though the Elf Queen was swaying her hips in front of him. He was unable to restrain himself and he instantly knelt in front of Lu Xiya's buttocks. He began to pound ferociously. Before long, sonorous sounds resounded within the room once again. The night was still very long…..

.........

When the first ray of light illuminated the horizon in the east, it felt as though today would be a nice day.

"Knock, knock, knock." In an inn of a small town that was 200 li or so away from Soaring Dragon City, a person rhythmically knocked against the door of a guest room.

The door automatically opened with a creak and a proud and aloof figure could be seen sitting in front of the window. She looked out of the window and she seemed to be in a daze.

A man and a woman walked into the room and closed the door. The entire body of the man was covered with a black robe. Even his face was completely covered. As for the woman, her face was also covered with a gauze.

"Subordinate Halei pays respect to Miss." The black robed man bowed and said. He was unexpectedly Halei who was stationed at White Cloud City.

The proud and aloof figure slowly turned around. She was unexpectedly Mu Hanyan who had disappeared all of a sudden during the final battle between Long Yi and the Military Advisor. Her softness seemed to have disappeared completely at this moment. It was replaced by cold indifference.

Mu Hanyan nodded her head and looked at the other woman who was looking at her with a hateful expression. Her gaze stayed on the woman for quite some time before she said with indifference, "Sit down first, I have some matters I want to talk to you about."

"Halei, now, the entire Blue Waves Continent will be unified very soon. What do you think we should do?" Mu Hanyan asked without any expression on her face.

"This subordinate is stupid, everything will be done according to the instruction of Miss." Halei said with terror in his voice.

Mu Hanyan shook her head and said, "Now, even Dark Church is under the control of Ximen Yu. We are no longer able to intervene with the Blue Waves Continent. It seems as though our plans can't keep up with the changes."

"Humph, since you are unable to complete the mission, I want to see how you will return to make the report!" Jingjing took off the veil covering her face and sneered at Mu Hanyan.

"That is my problem, you should just take care of yourself." Mu Hanyan coldly said.

"Miss, then, what should we do now?" Halei asked.

A hint of misgiving flashed through the eyes of Mu Hanyan but it disappeared soon after. A dazzling crystal appeared in her hand along with a sealed magic letter. She said, "This transmission crystal is the key to activate the transfer array of the secret room. This is a letter for my father emperor. It has already been so long since you came to this place… It's time for you to return."

Halei took those two things after some hesitation. He appeared as if he wanted to open his mouth, but nothing came out of it.

"Halei, leave us. I have something to say to her alone." Mu Hanyan pretended not to notice the expression on Halei's face and she ordered him to leave the room.

"What do you want me to do again?" Jingjing coldly said.

Mu Hanyan simply looked at Jingjing and the expression on her face fluctuated. Jingjing instantly felt uneasy and she couldn't control herself. She shouted, "What do you want to do? Am I so good looking? Put away your hypocritical appearance. The one thing I hate the most in this world is your hypocritical face. Looking at you makes me feel like vomiting."

The eyes of Mu Hanyan shone with pallid light and she coldly said, "Believe it or not, I will kill you."

"You want to kill me? Did you forget that I am already tired of living?" Jingjing stood up and said proudly.

"If I can't kill you, it doesn't mean that I can't kill other people." Mu Hanyan turned her head and said indifferently.

Jingjing's body trembled, clenching her hands into fists, she lowered her head as she bit her lower lip. There was a bone-deep hatred which flashed in her eyes. After a long time, she opened her mouth, "Although I am controlled by you, you are even more pitiful than me. Isn't it very painful to fall in love with a person you have to deal with?"

Pa, a loud and clear sound resounded in the room. Mu Hanyan sent a ferocious slap towards Jingjing and her eyes flashed with a terrifying pallid light.

"Get out at once." Now, Mu Hanyan looked just like an enraged mother leopard. Her entire body emitted bloodthirsty madness.

Chapter 552: The arrival of Empress

Jingjing's right cheek instantly swelled up and a hint of blood appeared at the corner of her mouth.

"It's a slap again… All the favors you have given me, I will firmly keep them in mind. Now, I just want to see how miserably you will fall in the end." Jingjing suddenly chuckled stuck out her tongue. She reached for the trail of blood which was at the corner of her mouth and she licked it up. Turning around, she left the room.

As for Mu Hanyan, she sat down sadly and a complicated feeling appeared in her eye.

"He must hate me to the bones now, if..." Mu Hanyan sighed softly. She looked weak and lonely as she thought about Long Yi.

........

The warm early morning sunlight illuminated the earth and made the morning a sluggish one.

At this moment, Long Yi was lying on the roof using his hands as a pillow. He looked satisfied and comfortable. Li Qing and Barbarian Bull were also there as they sat behind him, holding their weapons. Their gaze was empty as they stared into the distance. Clearly, they were immersed in their own thoughts.

In three days, it would be Ximen Nu's coronation ceremony. Today, the Empress of the Nalan Empire, Nalan Ruyue, would be arriving in Soaring Dragon City. On the next day, the allied army of the two empires led by Beitang Yu and the little fox Bertha would arrive. Bertha would be representing the beastmen clans. In the last few days, most of the beauties Long Yi had not seen for a long time were gathering at his side. He became trapped in the world of warmth and he was exhausted as he experienced the happy fate of the man from Qi. His days were so full of enthusiasm that even celestial beings would envy Long Yi.

However, there was something which made Long Yi regret. He hadn't seen Wushuang for such a long time. She left for Origin Ice with Mea Empress Lianxin quite some time ago and there hadn't been any news about her ever since. It could be assumed that something might have happened. He made up his mind to personally make a trip to Origin Ice after the coronation ceremony. Furthermore, there was Leng Youyou. After Barbarian Bull escorted her to the Elven Forest, she entered seclusion. Long Yi had no idea whether he could meet her in the near future.

At this moment, there were a lot of outstanding beauties gathered in the courtyard. They were chatting with great interest in groups of threes and fours. If other people saw this scene, their eyeballs might fall to the ground. If they were able to see just one or two beauties at this level, they could be considered fortunate. However, there were so many of them gathered together here. It was really a shocking scene. Under the heavens, other than this freak, Long Yi, there might be no one who could achieve this.

"My husband, come down from the roof! Midi'er and the others said that they want to go shopping. Let's go together." Nangong Xiangyun waved her hand towards Long Yi and said.

Long Yi suddenly sat up straight and he looked down with a strange expression. If so many matchless beauties went out to shop at the same time, wouldn't there be chaos?

"Ask some guards to follow you. Your husband wants to cultivate… I'm not going." Long Yi said with a smile. What sort of joke was this? Going shopping with one woman was already a terrifying matter. He couldn't even deal with one woman shopping… How was he going to deal with so many of them?

"Sisters, ignore him, let's go." Feng Ling rolled her eyes and said. In a few short moments, a group of beauties left the Ximen Residence.

Of course, Long Yi didn't worry when he sent them out along with some guards from the Ximen Clan. With the Ximen Clan's guards escorting them, no one would be blind and stupid enough to provoke them. Besides, it was already considered extremely good if they didn't go out to provoke others. In any case, if there was a retard who got on the nerves of the girls, Long Yi could only mourn for them in silence. Not a single one of them was easy to deal with.

"Hahaha, Young Master Ximen, you are quite free today… How about a drink?" At that time, a big fellow entered the courtyard and laughed loudly.

"Brother Mo Yan, it's not difficult for us to find wine here. Wait for a moment while I instruct the kitchen to send food and wine over." Long Yi also laughed. The person who had just arrived was Mad Lion Mo Yan. He was the person who was in charge of the Bounty Hunter Guild.

Mad Lion jumped to the roof and said, "Please don't bother. I brought food and wine. This time, I'm the one inviting all of you to eat and drink. Come come, brother Li, brother Bull, let's drink and have a good time."

Mad Lion took out more than a dozen wine jars and a table of steaming hot food which went well with wine. Opening the seal of a wine jar, he downed a large mouthful of it and he said, "Last time, I tasted the Hundred Flower Wine brought by Young Master Ximen. That wine was indeed savory and mellow, leaving behind a rich aftertaste. However, that wine wasn't strong enough, true menfolk drink this 'Intoxicated for Seven Days' obtained from Dwarf Clan. It's strong enough."

Long Yi's trio also opened up a wine jar each as they boldly drank several mouthfuls. There was no need for politeness when men drank.

"Not bad, this wine is strong enough. However, I tasted even stronger and more fragrant wine. I'm talking about 'Sea Soul' from the Nalan Empire. It's just that I drank it all and the rest of the wine isn't matured yet. Such a pity…" Long Yi said. He felt that only this kind of wine could be mentioned in the same breath as the Hundred Flowers Wine from the Elf Clan.

The four men drank and talked with a zest for a long time until they heard ceremonial salute sounds coming from outside the city gate.

"It's Yue'er." Long Yi was happy in his heart. Now, he had no time to drink here. In an instant, he disappeared from his spot and left the three of them on the roof. They stared at each other in blank dismay.

"Brother Li, brother Bull, Young Master Ximen has gone to receive a beauty. That's his problem. We brothers still have to drink!" Mad Lion laughed.

Barbarian Bull and Li Qing wanted to chase after Long Yi, but he was too fast. Moreover, since Long Yi had gone to meet Nalan Ruyue, wouldn't they be considered lightbulbs if they went? In the end, the two of them sat down and continued to drink with Mad Lion.

Long Yi quickly arrived at the northern city gate and saw the Nalan Empire's convoy slowly pressing forward. Altogether, there were ten luxurious carriages and the phoenix carriage in the center of the convoy was extremely magnificent. It exuded the aura of extravagance as it rolled down the road. In addition, there were five thousand elite cavalrymen escorting them.

This contingent got closer and closer to Soaring Dragon City and the citizens were finally able to see the faces of the cavalrymen at the front. At that time, the golden curtain of the phoenix carriage slowly opened. A pair of energetic eyes looked all around from the small gap.

"Big sister, hurry up and look! I see brother-in-law standing on the city wall." After peeping outside, the little Lolita turned around and excitedly said to Nalan Ruyue.

"Is that so?" Nalan Ruyue who was wearing a magnificent empress dress couldn't sit still when she heard that Long Yi was waiting for her. She couldn't wait to see her sweetheart and she slowly left her soft bed.

With Long Yi's excellent eyesight, he obviously saw Nalan Rumeng's eyes the moment the curtains opened. A huge smile blossomed on his face. His treasured beautiful sisters were finally arriving. Could he be happier than this?

At this moment, Nalan Ruyue slightly opened the curtain and she looked outside. However, she couldn't even discover Long Yi's shadow.

"You little girl, you actually dare to fool me! See how I smack you **" Nalan Ruyue glared at her younger sister.

"Yue'er, whose ** do you want to smack?" At that moment, the curtain swayed a little and along with a low laugh, Long Yi's figure slowly appeared in front of Nalan Ruyue.

Chapter 553: Give me a child

When she saw Long Yi who had a cheeky expression standing in front of her, the endless happiness in Nalan Ruyue's heart changed into dense affection. Taking two steps forward, she stood on her tiptoes and she hugged Long Yi's neck.

"Missed me?" Long Yi hugged Nalan Ruyue and softly said.

"Mmm." Nalan Ruyue responded softly. As though hugging him alone wasn't sufficient, she jumped upwards and wrapped her legs around Long Yi's waist. She hung on his body just like a huge baby.

Long Yi stepped back and sat on the soft bed. Before long, the two of them entangled with each other as though they were inseparable. He held the beautiful face of Nalan Ruyue as he looked at those alluring pink lips. Taking in a deep breath, he kissed her deeply.

It had already been a long time since they had gotten intimate, as a result, it was hard to control their **. They wildly kissed each other while exploring each other's body… It seemed as though their actions were beyond their control.

"Big sister, brother-in-law, can't you two restrain yourselves a little?" The Little Lolita was extremely dissatisfied with these two people treating her as though she was invisible. When he saw that their actions were becoming more and more intense, she couldn't help but pout.

Nalan Ruyue woke up from her **. At this moment, her clothing and hairpin were in disorder. Her complexion was bright red and she was emitting stirrings of love. If she were to greet other people looking like this, anyone who saw her would be able to guess what she was doing inside the carriage.

"Tiny tot, why are you being jealous? Now, I'll give your brother-in-law to you." Nalan Ruyue calmly stood up from the lap of Long Yi. She sorted out her clothing with a smile.

Nalan Rumeng happily smiled and impatiently jumped into the bosom of Long Yi. Rubbing her small head on his sturdy chest, she could feel Long Yi's warm manly aura. She felt extremely comfortable.

"Brother-in-law, you are up to mischief again." Suddenly, Nalan Rumeng stiffened and she raised her head. She said with a hint of shame as she could clearly feel something poking at her private place.

Long Yi laughed hollowly. He was not a eunuch. After messing around with Nalan Ruyue a moment ago, how could his little brother not protest? In addition, this Little Lolita had grown up quite a lot since the last time he saw her. Her little buttocks had taken shape and her breasts had also gotten quite big. When she moved around in his bosom, his little brother became even more spirited. How could he calm down?

When she looked at Long Yi's current appearance, Nalan Rumeng smirked. She started to grind her little buttocks against Long Yi's **. Her beautiful face still carried a bit of immature vibe but she had already grown into a charming and wild woman. She licked her lips and exhaled a hint of orchid fragrance. She whispered into Long Yi's ear, "Brother-in-law, do you want it?"

That seductive appearance directly made Long Yi's blood boil. His brutish nature was instantly aroused. As for Nalan Ruyue, she was startled at the side. When did her younger sister learn how to seduce men? She had no idea where in the world this damned girl learned these things from.

Grabbing Nalan Rumeng's little breasts with his claws, Long Yi endured the fire of lust which was burning inside him as he placed her to the side. Although he couldn't wait to immediately deal with this silly girl, there were lots of people outside. Moreover, they were about to arrive at the Ximen Residence. He was obviously unable to do anything to the Nalan sisters in the carriage.

Before long, the convoy arrived at the front of the Ximen Residence. By the time they arrived, Ximen Nu had already learned of the news. He was standing at the gate as he prepared to receive them along with a group of his trusted subordinates. With the utmost courtesy as the future ruler of the Violent Dragon Empire, he welcomed the group from the Nalan Empire. Although Nalan Ruyue was his daughter-in-law, when all was said and done, she was also the Empress of the Nalan Empire. He had to show some form of courtesy.

........

At night, the streets and lanes of Soaring Dragon City were still crowded with people and the atmosphere was extremely lively. It had already been a long time since the night market of Soaring Dragon City was this bustling. Of course, all of it had to do with the new emperor ascending the throne. Many traveling merchants of the various races of the Blue Waves Continent had swarmed to this city. As a result, even this huge flourishing city was filled to its maximum capacity. Even in the outskirts area, there were rows of newly built temporary log cabins and tents. All of the races were getting along well.

At this moment, in the Ximen Residence, Long Yi and Nalan Ruyue were fighting fiercely without any restraint. The entangled body of a man and a woman was emitting ** luster under the illumination of a rosy lamplight.

After a long time, Long Yi finally spurted. By that time, Nalan Ruyue's body was already soft and had collapsed into Long Yi's bosom. Her beautiful eyes were half closed and when she breathed, her jade breasts would quiver lightly. This truly was a scene that could make a sage go mad.

Only after a long time, Nalan Ruyue came back to her sense from her lingering **. She didn't move as she used Long Yi's chest as pillows. Lightly pursing up her pink lips, she looked at Long Yi with her beautiful eyes while drawing circles with her jade finger on the body of Long Yi.

"Yue'er, haven't you had enough? Do you want your husband to start again?" Long Yi looked straight at Nalan Ruyue with affection in his eyes as he caressed her smooth back.

Nalan Ruyue hatefully rolled her eyes and rubbed her full ** against his chest. She said, "My husband, do you remember what you promised me?"

Long Yi was startled and he frowned. After thinking about it for a long time, he was unable to recall anything. Helplessly shaking his head, Long Yi expressed that he didn't remember anything.

Nalan Ruyue angrily pinched Long Yi and said, "My husband, didn't you promise me that immediately after the warfare ended... You will make a baby with me?" After speaking, Nalan Ruyue became shy. Even though she looked shy, her eyes emitted radiance of a woman's longing. She believed that there were three stages of a woman's life. First was being a woman before turning into a man's wife. She would eventually become the mother of his children. Becoming a mother was an urgent matter after a woman had matured enough, physically and physiologically.

Hearing Nalan Ruyue, Long Yi remembered the promise. As a matter of a fact, Nalan Ruyue was not the only person having such thoughts. He had agreed to have a child after settling everything on the Blue Waves Continent. About the matter of having an heir, even Dongfang Wan had been pestering him about it. She had thoughts of bringing him to see a doctor when she saw that none of the women around him were pregnant. She had suspected that there was something wrong with his body. Otherwise, with so many daughters-in-law, why didn't she have a grandchild?

"My husband, is that okay? I really want a baby. Our baby will be the continuation of our life…" Nalan Ruyue shook the body of Long Yi and said affectionately.

"Okay. Since you are ready, we will have to sow the seeds." Long Yi pinched the cheeks of Nalan Ruyue and said with a bad smile. He decided that it was time for him to have his own children. Now, the entire Blue Waves Continent was stable and there were almost no conflicts between the clans. Of course, Long Yi had long been thinking about having a child. He had yet to experience the life of a father.

"Then, what are you waiting for, you bad fellow?" When she saw that Long Yi had agreed to it, Nalan Ruyue happily turned her body and pushed Long Yi down against the bed. Before long, intoxicated moans resounded in the room and it didn't dissipate even after a long time.

Only after several rounds, Nalan Ruyue finally fell asleep. As for Long Yi, he wasn't sleepy at all. In this quiet night, he was lost in thoughts and he dreamed of the day when all of his women around him were sitting around him as their children gathered around them. He longed for the day when they sweetly called him 'father'.

Unconsciously, a happy smile appeared on the face of Long Yi. However, Long Yi woke up with a start as he patted his forehead. Perhaps, he was affected by the words of Nalan Ruyue. It might even be his dreams which were hidden deep in his heart.

Long Yi gently got up and wore his clothes. Leaving the sleeping Nalan Ruyue, he walked out of the room.

At this moment, the temperature was cool and dawn was approaching. The people who were bustling late into the night had already entered dreamland after eating and drinking to their heart's content. On the outskirts of the city, smoke which came from bonfires was still curling upwards into the sky.

Long Yi habitually flew to the roof which was a place where he could find peace. He thought about how it had already been a few years since he had arrived in this world. From fear to novelty to integration… Everything he had experienced was just like a dream. Sometimes, he wondered whether he was just dreaming about everything which happened. However, at this time, the memories of his past life was already cloudy. He couldn't recall many things and there were only some indistinct and blur outlines left.

Still, whenever he looked at the vast starry sky, Long Yi always had a feeling that he was extremely tiny. The universe was too big and humankind was too small. Even those so-called gods were nothing but a comparably bigger speck of dust in the boundless universe.

Long Yi stretched out his hand as if he wanted to grab the stars in the sky. In this vast universe, could there be a beautiful planet called earth?

Suddenly, a familiar fragrance came along with the night wind. After retracting his hand, Long Yi saw the Elf Queen looking at him with a slight smile on her face.

"Your Majesty the Queen, can't fall asleep? How about drinking some wine as we enjoy looking at the beautiful full moon together?" Long Yi smiled and sat up. He had thoughts of being alone with the Elf Queen. He was happy that she appeared at this moment.

The Elf Queen gracefully sat beside Long Yi and said, "Why are you here by yourself? What were you thinking about just a moment ago?"

Long Yi took out wine cups and a bottle of Hundred Flowers Wine from his space ring. When he heard her question, his hands paused for a moment and he said with a smile, "I couldn't fall asleep tonight and I was thinking about some profound issues. How big is the universe? Why do people exist in this world? Why are there men and women? Why can men and women be together but not men and men? Why can't women be together with women?"

"Only someone like you will think about these messy stuffs. It's enough for everyone to live in this world happily. Why are you thinking about so much random stuff?" Elf Queen chuckled and said.

"Living happily… Is living happily enough? As long as one is happy, can one put aside their moral principles and ethical constraints?" Long Yi emptied a glass with one gulp and stared at Elf Queen with keen, sparkling eyes. The hand which the Elf Queen used to hold the cup trembled and her thoughts were thrown into disarray.

"How is it possible for there not to be moral principles and ethics?" Elf Queen sipped a mouthful of good wine and said gently.

"Perhaps, it is possible. How can you know that it isn't possible if you don't try it?" Long Yi said as he looked into the starry sky.

"Maybe it is possible. However, it's possible that someone will become hurt in the future. If that happens, what am I supposed to do? I can't turn back time…" The tone of the Elf Queen seemed to have a hint of fluctuation.

"Lu Xiya will not be hurt. On the contrary, she is very supportive of this…" Long Yi lowered his head and said as if he was thinking aloud.

Elf Queen trembled and waves suddenly surged forth in her heart. Her calm expression also instantly changed. It became one of alarm and bewilderment. What did this bad fellow mean? Could it be that Lu Xiya truly doesn't object to her and ...

"I have no idea what you are talking about. I'm leaving." Elf Queen tossed out the chaotic thought from her mind. At this moment, all she wanted to do was calm down.

Long Yi immediately reached out and grabbed the wrist of the Elf Queen. It seemed as though a wave of courage swept across him as Long Yi leaned in and kissed the Elf Queen on the lips. It was as though he had thrown everything to the wind… It seemed as though he had forgotten the consequence of forcefully kissing the Elf Queen in the past.

Anyway, when he felt the sweet fragrance coming from her soft and warm lips, Long Yi became extremely excited in his heart. He sucked on her lips in a daze as he hugged her.

The Elf Queen had no reaction and she stood rooted to the spot. She was completely stunned. Her brain had turned into a blank space and her body had gone soft. Her heartbeat was accelerating but she didn't struggle at all. She allowed Long Yi to hug and kiss her.

The greedy hands of Long Yi moved towards the full and towering bosom of the Elf Queen and she instantly woke up with a start. She started to ferociously struggle and she managed to push Long Yi away. Raising her hand, she moved to slap Long Yi across the face.

Closing his eyes, Long Yi prepared himself for the slap which was about to reach him. He was ready to take on the wrath of the Elf Queen. However, even after a long time, the expected slap didn't reach him. He silently opened his eyes and he saw that the beautiful eyes of the Elf Queen were staring at him. He saw that her eyes were filled with tears and her jade palm was stopped in midair. She was currently staring at him with a complicated expression on her face.

"I'm sorry, I...."

"No need to speak. You are not wrong. I'm the one that made a mistake." The Elf Queen interrupted Long Yi and she changed into a beam of green light. In an instant, she disappeared from the roof and left behind Long Yi who was staring at the sky. Long Yi made a bitter and helpless smile as he finished the last of his wine. He smashed the wine cup after the last drop of wine disappeared into his mouth.

At this moment, the heart of Long Yi was also filled with regret. He knew perfectly well that this kind of matter couldn't be rushed. However, he was still unable to control himself as he forcefully kissed her. From this point on, Long Yi was afraid that they wouldn't even be able to enjoy a normal relationship.

"It seems like our great love saint also has a time when he drowns in sorrow…" At that time, a voice which seemed to be laughing at him entered Long Yi's ears. The voice was mocking him but there was a hidden bitterness hidden behind it.

The breathing of Long Yi stagnated and he turned around. He saw Mu Hanyan who was wearing a fur robe as she stood on the back of Bai Yu. Her beautiful hair wasn't tied up as it hung down loosely from her head.

The expression of Long Yi slowly became sharp. This charming and pretty girl in front of him was so close at hand. However, to Long Yi, she was extremely far away… She was so far away that he could feel a stabbing pain in his heart. In the past, he had thought that with his charm, she would wholeheartedly fall in love with him. The facts showed that it was his wishful thinking all along. It was indeed a laughable matter.

"I know that you have many questions you want to ask. Follow me." The charming expression on Mu Hanyan's face stiffened. She became unable to maintain it any longer and her expression reverted back to one of emptiness and indifference.

Two people, one in the front and the other in the back, went to the outskirts of this city and landed on the top of a mountain. At this moment, the eastern sky had already welcomed the first rays of light. This morning glow dyed the horizon red and fresh as a comfortable morning breeze blew across the land.

"Why?" After a long time, Long Yi slowly opened his mouth. When he thought about the thousands of soldiers who died in the imperial palace at the hands of those dark warriors, Long Yi's heart bled. It was alright if anyone else betrayed him… However, Mu Hanyan was the one who betrayed him. If it was someone else who betrayed him, he would have simply gotten angry. However, Mu Hanyan was the one who betrayed him… It broke his heart.

"Why not?" Mu Hanyan indifferent said and with the rosy dawn reflected in her beautiful eyes, an ice-cold flame rose in her eyes.

The corner of Long Yi's mouth twitched. He stepped forward and ferociously raised the chin of Mu Hanyan and looked straight into her eyes.

"Tell me. Tell me you betrayed me not because you wanted to harm me! Tell me that you had some secret difficulties." Long Yi's voice was hoarse and his handsome face was painfully distorted.

Mu Hanyan gritted her teeth and closed her eyes. She couldn't look at Long Yi who was suffering with her indifferent expression. She wanted to tell him that she had never thought of betraying him and she left because it was the only thing she could do. However, she said nothing. Some matters in the world were up to destiny. It was just like the fate of the two of them. No one was able to stop them from seeing each other and no one was able to stop them from loving each other. There was also no one who could stop them from opposing each other. Everything happened because of fate.

"If you hate me, then kill me." Mu Hanyan used a similarly hoarse voice to speak as tears slid down from the corner of her eyes.

"You know that I cannot kill you." Long Yi reached out his hands and wiped her tears.

"You can. In this world, you are the only one who can kill me…" Mu Hanyan closed her eyes and stretched out her neck. She placed Long Yi's hand on her neck without saying another word.

Exerting some force in his hand, he tightly gripped Mu Hanyan's neck. When he felt the soft neck, Long Yi's breathing stopped for a moment.

After a long time, Mu Hanyan opened her moist eyes and she saw Long Yi's tear-filled eyes. Her heart shook as if a bolt of lightning struck her. This was a man's tear… He was shedding tears because of her.

"Yu..." Mu Hanyan nevertheless was unable to restrain herself and wept with grief as she repeatedly kissed Long Yi.

Both of them were people with an incomparably tough will. However, at this moment, their feelings for each other got out of hand and they kissed each other with an insane amount of passion. It was as though there was nothing else left in this world other than the two of them. They simply wanted to vent out all their feelings. Everything else was not important.

Clothes flew everywhere and they rolled about on a huge rock. Now, their arms and legs were wrapped around each other as they passionately kissed each other repeatedly. They left marks on each other's body.

Finally, when everything stopped, the sun had already risen from the horizon and golden light illuminated the two completely naked bodies on the summit of the mountain. At this moment, they looked like a harmonious couple.

"If I can, I really want to live with you forever till the end of the world. If I cannot be with you in this life, I hope that we can be together in our next life. I rather you hold on to the hate for me than forget me…" Mu Hanyan closed her eyes and lied on the chest of Long Yi. Her messy beautiful hair fluttered in the air along with the gentle breeze, but her expression looked peaceful.

At this moment, Long Yi who had the vitality of a dragon even after fighting for three days and three nights, fell into deep sleep. His breathing was even and he had a gentle smile on his face.

When the sun reached the center of the sky, Mu Hanyan crawled up from the chest of Long Yi. Strangely enough, there was a trail of red blood flowing out from the corner of her mouth. In addition, there was a hint of a golden color in the midst of that blood. On the chest of Long Yi, a golden cloud mark appeared.

Mu Hanyan wore her cloth and stared at the sleeping Long Yi in a trance. At this moment, with her beautiful hair hanging down loosely from her head, she looked just like a sad fairy.

"Yu, I love you." Mu Hanyan mumbled and gently kissed the lips of Long Yi. With a sudden jump, she stood on Bai Yu's back as she flew far away.

Crackle, at that time, a milky white pearl which was hanging from Long Yi's chest started to emit a soft radiance. It started to rise up into the air.

"Xiao Yi..." Long Yi, who was sleeping soundly, suddenly muttered. He called out Xiao Yi's name in his sleep.

An almost transparent silhouette appeared in midair. She opened her transparent eyes and her long hair fluttered in the wind. A naked Xiao Yi fluttered in midair and she gently looked at Long Yi. Her pink lips opened and closed as if she was trying to tell Long Yi something. However, it seemed as though she was isolated from the world as her words were inaudible.

"Xiao Yi, Xiao Yi, quickly return. Your Young Master misses you." Long Yi waved his hand towards Xiao Yi and shouted loudly while running towards her. All of a sudden, he realized that even though he was shouting, no voice came out from his mouth. Even though he had been running, the distance between them was getting bigger and bigger.

Suddenly, the scene changed. Long Yi seemed to have reached the high clouds. Below, there was a city with crowds of people and the overall layout of this city was similar to Soaring Dragon City. This city was lively and bustling as a ceremony was going on along with gorgeous magic fireworks in the sky.

Then, Long Yi caught sight of himself. In the instant he saw himself, the scenery around him completely disappeared. A white beam of light illuminated him. He was dazed and panic-stricken. In addition, his face and robe were stained with blood. At this moment, he appeared as if his soul had flown away. A strange and frightful expression was on his face.

"How can this be? How can I do this?" Long Yi shouted at the top of his voice and he felt as though someone suddenly hit his head. He woke up with a start and he instantly sat upright.

Long Yi looked all around and discovered that he was still at the top of a mountain. He was still wearing his robe but at this moment, his forehead was full of sweat. Mu Hanyan who was supposed to be asleep in his bosom had disappeared a long time ago.

When he thought about Mu Hanyan, Long Yi's expression became gloomy. He forgot about his dream for a moment. Now, he only had the conversation between Mu Hanyan replaying in his mind.

She definitely loved him. Long Yi finally reached the conclusion that she was indeed in love with him. However, where did she go again? Could he ever see her again? Long Yi sighed as he shook his head. He got up and arranged his robes. However, when he got up, he discovered an indistinct golden cloud mark on his chest.

"Strange, what is this?" Long Yi touched it and discovered that it was smooth. It should have already integrated with his skin and Long Yi no longer thought about it. He could always think about it another day.

Long Yi wore his clothes neatly and seeing it was approaching noon, he recalled that the allied army of the two empires led by Beitang Yu would be arriving soon, so he flew away.

In the instant he was in the air, Long Yi realized that the true qi within his body was chaotic. Especially the true qi in his dantian. It was blowing over which made him almost plummet straight to the ground.
