The snow fell heavier and heavier.

Wu Xiaode sat on a rock outside the cave, quietly watching the leaden clouds in the night sky.

A line of ice crystal characters lingered before his eyes:

"Your world attribute: Law Transformation, is in operation."

"The body of the Purgatory Demon King has been purified under this attribute, becoming the purest source power."

"Shen Xiujuan has contributed all the treasures of those who were killed, converting them into source power, making this source power even stronger."

"Please choose:

"A, use this vast source power to promote the evolution of the world;

"B, use this vast source power to promote the stylization of a certain skill;

"C, use this vast source power to promote the evolution of a species."

"Choose one, please think carefully before deciding."

Actually, according to the original development trajectory, Wu Xiaode would definitely choose to let the world evolve when faced with this situation.

But the cause of everything just now was—

The awakening of the Ancient Dragon King Blood Curse actually induced the Wall of Sighs to appear.

It was this anomaly that ignited Wu Xiaode's anger.

There is a cause, there is an effect.

Then let's make the choice following the instinct of power!

"I choose B, promote skill evolution—"

Wu Xiaode said, stretching out his hand towards the Void.

In an instant.

The Wall of Sighs materialized, its pitch-black facade meeting Wu Xiaode's hand.

Waves of power surged from the world, converging on the Wall of Sighs, providing power for the personal stylization of the Ancient Dragon King Blood Curse.

In a moment.

Two lines of ice crystal characters emerged:

"Your Bloodline Power 'Ancient Dragon King Blood Curse' is undergoing personal stylization on the Wall of Sighs."

"Please wait."

If waiting is what it takes.

Wu Xiaode sat quietly, not moving, but enlightenment after enlightenment surfaced in his heart.

—The knowledge from the Human Emperor's Inheritance was constantly changing.

Knowledge that was once familiar was now constantly triggering new insights, informing him of various new developments in the world.

For instance, he had just understood a very important piece of information.

The World Master could control multiple worlds.

The more worlds, the stronger the World Master.

But this is not absolute, some World Masters possess only a few worlds, yet these few worlds form a very powerful force, far surpassing hundreds of ordinary worlds.

—Quite strange, how does the Human Emperor know so much knowledge?

A wave of doubt crept into Wu Xiaode's heart.

The Human Emperor had never taught him knowledge about worlds before, but after he became the World Master, he had access to much more information.

This master of his—

What exactly is his background?

Wu Xiaode pondered incessantly but found no clues, and eventually gave up thinking any further.

—After all, everyone has their secrets.

In the midst of the wind and snow, a whooshing sound suddenly echoed.

Wu Xiaode came back to his senses.

Lustrous light radiated from him, completely shielding the cave and hiding his figure.

—Evernight City!

With such a level of concealment, Wu Xiaode remained seated in his original spot, waiting quietly for the enemy.

After a few moments.

Two figures flew through the snowstorm and landed on the rocks in front of him.

They were two human scouts, competent in their trade, obviously old hands at scouting and gathering intelligence.

"Strange, the trail disappears here," one of them said.

"Must still be nearby, let's have a thorough search," the other suggested.

The scouts split up and searched the snowy mountains, eventually returning to where Wu Xiaode was.

"Find anything?" one asked.

"Nothing, and you?" the other replied.

"Same."

"That dragon has awakened its Bloodline Power, it's not easy to deal with. Since we didn't find anything, let's head back."

"Agreed."

Wu Xiaode had already had his hand on his sword, ready to strike, but he now abandoned the idea.

He stood up and followed the two men, running towards the direction they had come from.

About half an hour later.

The three of them returned to Dragon Village together.

The place had become a ruin.

Some especially strong professionals were carefully guarding the surroundings, not allowing any strangers to approach the ruins.

The two scouts, however, passed through numerous checks and went directly to the innermost part of the ruins.

Seven or eight people were standing there, as if discussing something.

"Report!"

"We chased all the way and found that all traces have disappeared, we have not seen any signs of escape."

The two scouts knelt on one knee and reported.

A tall man said irritably:

"Did you search thoroughly? Those two dragons that got away, they are a disaster. If you're not diligent, things won't end well for you."

The scouts looked angry, but apparently had considerations and refrained from retaliating, merely bowed their heads in silence.

An old man standing by tried to mediate:

"Take it easy, Prince Mooer, these are the most skilled thieves in the United Country, no one can escape their sight."

"Hmph, so many dead... what a mess," Mooer grumbled discontentedly.

He ignored everyone and turned to enter a tent.

Wu Xiaode naturally followed him in.

Inside, Mooer sat down and carelessly flipped through several glass vials filled with bright red blood.

"Anyway, the Dragon Blood is in our hands... now that the dragon has awakened, this blood can be used..."

Mooer's face, previously beset with anxiety, now bore a smug expression as he spoke.

At that moment,

a hand reached from behind, covering his mouth.

A flash of the long knife.

Not a drop of blood spilled as the lifeless body fell backward into the Void, tumbling directly into Wu Xiaode's world and transforming into pure source power.

Wu Xiaode gently caressed the fairy's ivy brooch.

In the blink of an eye, he became Mooer.

All of Mooer's memories suddenly surfaced in his mind.

Wu Xiaode closed his eyes for a moment and said in a low voice,

"I had not expected this... It really is quite the affair..."

Before he could finish,

the tent suddenly opened.

The gloomy old man entered and took a seat across from Wu Xiaode.

"Master Kain, you must be freezing outside, have something to drink."

Wu Xiaode greeted him with a smile, just as he remembered.

He personally poured a steaming cup of coffee for the visitor.

"No need, if we don't find anything here, I'm preparing to personally head to the northern mountains to search for that dragon," said Master Kain.

"Why trouble yourself? We've seen the terrifying power of that dragon. Why take the risk? You might as well accompany me on a trip; you may find even greater rewards."

As Wu Xiaode spoke, he took out the glass bottle and waved it in front of the other man.

—Inside was Gjestastav's fresh blood.

From the injuries the children had inflicted on her.

Master Kain glanced at the glass bottle and shook his head,

"This amount of blood can only open some of the prohibitions—"

"Only by having one of the Ancient Dragon Clan go to the forbidden lands can we remove all dangers and venture deeper."

"Well then, what's the Dragon Clan's response?" asked Wu Xiaode.

"Those assassins, keeping secrets from other members of the Dragon Clan, are naturally anxious right now. They are beginning to seal the entire world to prevent the message here from spreading out," replied Master Kain.

Wu Xiaode silently nodded.

Many years ago,

the king of the Ancient Dragon Clan was grievously wounded in battle.

When he fell into slumber, a few of his confidants suddenly betrayed him, chopping off his head.

But the treasure they coveted was hidden by the Dragon King within his personal world.

That world was full of forbidden and dangerous powers, and anyone who forced their way in would alert the other guardians of the Dragon Clan or even directly forfeit their life.

Only the awakened bloodline of the Royal Family could reach the Dragon King's world and extract its precious contents unharmed.

The assassins didn't obtain anything.

The only option left was for them to join forces with other races to seal Gjestastav, the Dragon King's orphan, in this world, trying to gain access to the Dragon King's world through her.

Over the years,

Gjestastav finally awakened her powers.

But she had escaped with the help of Wu Xiaode!

The assassins were naturally thrown into panic and immediately sealed the world to prevent Gjestastav from fleeing this world and letting the truth spread among the Dragon Clan.

The moment Wu Xiaode obtained this information, he made his decision.

Master Kain cleared his throat and said,

"Your Highness, I've come specially to find out one thing."

"Please, speak," said Wu Xiaode.

"If you ascend to the throne, would you support the establishment of Mage Guild screening centers across the country?"

"Of course, I am your strong backbone, supporting you seekers of truth, not the decayed Church," replied Wu Xiaode naturally.

A smile immediately spread across Master Kain's face.

"Your Highness's assurance is extremely important to us. Then I'll speak openly. Those dragon assassins have the girl's hair."

"In a few minutes, they will send the hair over."

"I will cast a Super High-Level Life Tracking spell using the hair, and I am certain it will lead us to that orphan of the Dragon King."

"Most impressive," exclaimed Wu Xiaode.

"Please, join us and capturing the dragon will greatly enhance your prestige among the princes," said Master Kain.

"Thanks for the invite, I'll definitely be there," Wu Xiaode responded.

He sat motionless, snapping his fingers.

In an instant,

the entire world vanished.

But a brand-new world soared from the distant Void, unfolding swiftly.

—Wu Xiaode's world!

The world was opened only for an instant.

The Master, after all, was much stronger than a prince. If the combat fluctuations were to spread out, it could easily alarm others.

So Wu Xiaode unfolded his own world and, using Double Heaven and Earth, unleashed a thunderous assault, Fat Sa released the Dragon Curse, and a Rock Giant grabbed the Mage by the feet.

The sword.

A flash.

The second hand ticked.

All traces vanished without a trace.

Wu Xiaode had returned to the original world, picking up the steaming cup of coffee from the table and began to drink.

The tent opened again.

A Dragon Clan man with vertical pupils entered, asking in a muffled voice,

"Where's His Highness the Prince?"

"Young people these days are so hot-tempered, and he refused to support our Mage Guild, so I let him open a transport portal back to the Imperial City on his own," Wu Xiaode said, blowing on the hot surface of the coffee.

The Dragon Clan man was silent for a while, then nodded,

"Master Kain, please come with us."

"Has the hair arrived?"

"Yes, we need to start tracking that orphan of the Dragon King immediately."

Wu Xiaode set down his coffee and stood up.

The ivy brooch on his chest reflected the dim light of the candles.

But at this moment, he was no longer the prince but the Master he'd just eliminated.

"Let's go. Let's catch that girl quickly."

Saying this, Wu Xiaode casually drew the Magic Wand of the Master and followed the man out of the tent.
