Chapter 881: Dragon’s Descent From The Heavens
The Beast Wrist Instrument still had to go through continuous research. Although the direction of the answer was correct, there was still a long way to go before they could achieve success.
Before achieving that goal, even if Yue Yang was bold enough, he would no longer harass His Majesty anymore.
He guessed that His Majesty was really angry.
Otherwise, he wouldn’t rush over to kick him out.
Although he had the Heaven Eyes Transverse, student Yue Yang knew of the ‘feigned confusion’ technique. He pretended not to see a dark figure rushing out and even pretended not to know anything.
Yue Yang wanted to immerse himself in researching to get some results, but the old fox pulled him away. Now was an important time to publicize the Dragon Knights Legion Army, so how could they lose the righteous master, Yue Yang?
During the dusk of the following day.
“What is that?”
“It looks a bit like a dark cloud, but the movement is too weird.”
“It’s not a dark cloud at all, it’s a bird. Oh my goodness, no, it’s not a bird— it’s a flying dragon! The Flying Dragons are covering the sky!”
The mercenaries who were resting in the large square outside the Tong Tian Tower found a dark cloud rushing forward. When they got closer, they discovered that there were thousands of Flying Dragons. All kinds of Flying Dragons were soaring over the sky, making the mercenaries almost pee their pants in fright even though the dragons had no intentions of launching an attack. One flying dragon was already enough to destroy a mercenary group, so how many Flying Dragons were there? There were too many to calculate, but there are at least 10,000. If they were to attack, they could probably destroy a large city or even a country. The most terrifying thing was the fact that in this cluster of nearly 10,000 Flying Dragons, there were hundreds of Flying Dragons Kings that were as high-levelled as the Gold Ranks.
These Flying Dragon Kings were not only considered Gold Ranked Beast Kings, many of them possessed high intelligence and each of them had the strength that was equal to or higher than the Innate Realms of human warriors.
The front row of Flying Dragons had knights on their backs.
There were those who were old and there were those of the young; some men, and some were women.
Most of them were tall and strong female warriors.
These female warriors were easily recognized by some of the mercenary leaders as none other than the Heaven Realm Female Draconians that were under the command of the Third Young Master. This group of female warriors were powerful but extremely humble.
They were powerful, but they regarded themselves as slaves and never fought over anything.
However, they only recognized the Third Young Master of the Yue Clan. Besides him, no one else in the entire Tong Tian Tower could give them commands. The female warrior wearing a crown who was riding the Poisonous Flying Dragon King was none other than Queen Qi Ge.
Not far behind her, there stood a wise sage on the back of the Flying Plasma Dragon. The mercenaries also recognized him as the acting dean of the Ivy Academy, Shui Dong Liu, who soon became an important pillar of the Innate Alliance. The great sage was also one of the mentors recognized by the Third Young Master of the Yue Clan.
Although the sage Shui Dong Liu was not well-known before, he was extraordinary in the field of his strength and had overwhelming wisdom that was as broad as the sea.
The outstanding generation of Tong Tian Tower, like the Third Young Master of the Yue Clan, Xue Tan Lang, Yan Po Jun, Feng Qi Sha, Hai Da fu, Ye Kong, Li Qie, Li Jia and many more, were all his disciples.
“Roar!”
Just when the mercenaries looked up at the sky, thinking about which big shot decided to grace them with their presence, a dragon’s roar echoed from the sky.
A black smudge was descending quickly.
The strong wind blew as there was a sudden drop of deterrence that no one could resist. Not only did the mercenaries present feel it, but everyone felt a strong sense of suffocation.
The 30-meter-wide dragon wings unfolded, looking almost larger than the wingspan of three ordinary Flying Dragons. The golden scales resembled the sun, brightly dazzling to the point where they could barely open their eyes. A roar resounded like a bolt from a blue sky that even shocked the momentum brought by the 10,000 Flying Dragons, overshadowing them. What peered out from the clouds was a Giant Golden Dragon that was probably capable of engulfing the entire world as its strength was as high as the Platinum Rank Level 10. For thousands of years, no such imperial Battle Beast had ever appeared in the Soaring Dragon Continent. It was quite unexpected to have 10,000 Flying Dragons show up today, let alone a Giant Golden Dragon’s descent.
Moreover, it was still in the posture of being a mount.
In the entire Soaring Dragon Continent, who else could subdue such a beast into their own mount?
Of course it would be the Third Young Master of the Yue Clan. Besides him, who else had such strength? Apart from him, who else had such qualifications?
“Ahhhhh…”
“The Giant Dragon! It really is a Giant Golden Dragon!”
The mercenaries were excited and elated. They wanted to cheer but worried that the noise would seem disrespectful to the strong.
As soon as the Giant Golden Dragon with Innate Ranked abilities descended, the 10,000 other Flying Dragons immediately split from their formations and automatically arranged in groups. They drooped their heads and were revealing their humility, paying their tributes to the more advanced beings one after another.
The Heaven Realm Female Draconians that were riding behind the Flying Dragons shed tears when they watched Yue Yang emerge from his position of riding the dragon.
Descending the skies on a mighty dragon; this is the Sky Dragon Emperor that we have in our hearts!
They waved their shiny swords and shouted in unison.
Their frantic screaming was not only meant to pay tributes to the Lord, but it was also meant to celebrate the return of the legend that had been passed down from generations to generations!
The Sky Dragon Emperor is back!
He had already disappeared in the legend, but today, with a brand-new form, the Sky Dragon Emperor has descended from above and is back with them!
The cries of the Heaven Realm Female Draconians were intertwined with the tributing roars from the Flying Dragons. The sound could very well be described as earth-shattering as it reached the heavens and shook the entire ground. Below, whether it was a Flying Beast or the non-Flying Beasts, all of them had automatically descended to the ground with a fearful and respectful attitude in front of the Giant Golden Dragon controlled by the Third Young Master of the Yue Clan. They saluted and bowed to this powerful creature, expressing their humbleness to the extremely strong one who controlled it.
They were not qualified to salute this overbearing power because the emperor that they were paying their tributes to was only the mount of the strong one.
Ordinary merchants and servants were already frightened and paralyzed on the ground. Under the frightening aura of the dragon, even its inadvertent eyes looking down made them frightened. The mercenaries were a little better as they were accustomed to licking blood with the head of their knives. Although they were also scared in their hearts, their excitement triumphed over their fears. Countless mercenaries couldn’t help kneeling down, worshiping the young man who stood on the back of the Innate Giant Golden Dragon like a God with a kind of piety that they had never felt before.
What constitutes as the strong?
This was the true definition of the strong! The truly powerful warrior!
People looked up to the sky as the Giant Golden Dragon was shining brightly under the warm sunlight of the setting sun.
Those rays of light surrounded the man that was no longer unfamiliar to anyone. Maybe the omnipotent Gods in the legend were like this. No, it must have been like this!
“The Third Young Master of the Yue Clan is riding a Giant Golden Dragon of a high rank, just like an emperor, leading tens of thousands of Flying Dragons as they come out from the Tong Tian Tower to return to the Da Xia Empire!”
“The Da Xia Emperor Jun Wu You personally led the crowd to greet him.”
“The Four Major Families are gathering again! And nearly a hundred families and tycoons were there to welcome them!”
A series of explosive news blasted like a serial cannon and spreaded at the fastest of speeds. For a moment, almost all the taverns and all public places in all cities were discussing this shocking news. There was no false exaggeration and false rumors as it was a direct announcement made by the Three Major Guilds. The Warrior Guild, Mercenary Guild, and the Thief Guild had the exact same news: the Third Young Master of the Yue Clan was preparing to form a Dragon Knight Legion Army. There were no restrictions on gender, status, strength, age etc; everything was not restricted as it was meant to find and nurture promising elites.
In almost every tavern, there were propaganda signs posted for free by the Three Major Guilds at the door:
“Come join the Dragon Knight Legion Army, what are you waiting for?
The next elite is you!
You may not know how much potential you have, you may never know what realms you can achieve in the future— but all of that doesn’t matter. As long as you are willing to take a step, you will have the life you dream of. Even if you are no more than mediocre, as long as you have an unwavering will, the Third Young Master will provide everything you need!
You don’t need to pay anything at all. As long as you have a heart that will always grow stronger, then you are the next Dragon Knight or the next Dragon Blood Guard!
If you have no ambitions, why not let your children try it? Maybe the next glorious Dragon Knight is none other than your son or daughter!
Fathers who look forward to their sons becoming dragons[1], the best method is right in front of you!
T/L Note: [1] Dragons are often associated with good luck there, so to say that they want their sons to be dragons, it means hoping they’ll succeed and prosper.
Your sons need this opportunity!”
…In almost all public places, the people could see propaganda slogans like this.
To say that one was not tempted would be a lie.
There has never been a person so generous as the Third Young Master of the Yue Clan. The test to determine their potential was already free, and yet he provided each warrior with a Flying Dragon and a glorious Dragon Knight identity. He did not charge them as well. The most important thing was that there had never been a person who gave ordinary people the opportunity to stand up like him.
Even if you can’t be a great Dragon Knight, your children could enter and become one of them!
If things really didn’t work out, being a servant of the Dragon Knight or a stableboy would be at least a hundred times better than waiting to die helplessly. Who would pity the civilians who were struggling for survival at the bottom of the food chain? Who would give the opportunity to those mercenaries whose blades licked endless amounts of blood? Who would care for those refugees who live in slums, waiting to die? Since birth, apart from the Third Young Master of the Yue clan, who else was willing to give any others the fate of turning over a new leaf again? Who possessed the ability to do this?
No one but the Third Young Master of the Yue Clan.
Only him… not only the unyielding spirit of martial arts, but also the will to survive, the belief in destiny and whatnot, had all exploded like a volcanic eruption, breaking out from the Soaring Dragon Continent.
Anyone walking on the street could see that the eyes of the lifeless passers-by flashed with a light that had never been seen before. It was a light of hope, a light that radiated from the bottom of their hearts.
In the Da Xia Palace’s main hall.
“You did this to put me on the spot— I’m protesting against it! I didn’t have much free time from the start, but thanks to you guys, I will be even more busy from now on,” Student Yue Yang was not as magnanimous as people think as he desperately resisted the idea of Jun Wu You and Old Fox, expressing his very unhappy demeanour. If it weren’t for Princess Qian Qian and Luo Hua, he would have beaten up these two old men.
“Except for some of the most important occasions, you don’t need to show up in ordinary times and you can take care of your affairs!” The Old Fox hurriedly comforted student Yue Yang who was about to run away.
“It is said that to become a god, it is very important to have the piety and integrity of many people,” Jun Wu You also helped.
“Damn, do you think that the enlightenment to the Divine Realm is like eating Chinese cabbages[2]?” Yue Yang was speechless.
T/L Note: [2] In China, these Chinese cabbages are like staple dishes. They’re common, cheap and easy to manage if you’re a seller. Likewise, it’s referred to as being common or easy to achieve.
“Well, that’s just a matter of time!” Jun Wu You chuckled. As his father-in-law, he did not fight against Yue Yang at all.
“Little Yue Yang, it is very meaningful to do this,” As soon as Grandma Wu Teng spoke, Yue Yang couldn’t help but adhere to it. He sincerely respected this instructor, so he had to raise his hands in surrender and express his willingness to listen to everyone’s arrangements. In order to reward the well-behaved student Yue Yang, Princess Qian Qian lightly kicked him under the table. When Yue Yang went to see her, she turned her head and deliberately looked away to chat with Yue Bing.
However, the clever student Yue Yang still predicted what she had wanted to suggest.
It seems that Tigress will come to accompany me at night; what a profitable gain!
