Chapter 1062: Meet the City Lord?


Chapter 1062: Chapter 1062: Meet the City Lord?

Huang Yuanlang said, “The order came from the Leader, but no price was specified. It’s clear that it’s not a do-or-die command. Those who have Space Source Crystals are naturally hoarding them. It’s only the Sky Domination Clan who is in a rush.”

“Ah,” Bai Xiuxiu nodded, no further questions asked.

Huang Yuanlang said, “Do you have any plans for what comes next, beloved sister?”

Bai Xiuxiu gave him a glance and said, “I have already joined your family, shouldn’t it be up to you what happens next? What do you want me to do?”

Huang Yuanlang chuckled and said, “With your exceptional talent and your Ice and Dark Dual Attributes, such gifts stand out even among our superior Dragon Clan. Becoming a Dragon Knight in the future is certainly possible. Naturally, the family hopes that you will continue to make progress and one day achieve glory like the Moke Dragon Knight, protecting the family. In return, the family will spare no effort in supporting you, beloved sister. You already signed a contract last time, officially making you part of the family.”

Bai Xiuxiu nodded and said, “Then how should I cultivate?”

Huang Yuanlang said with a smile, “No rush, let’s eat first. I have already informed father of your return, and he has asked me to bring you to meet him tonight. By then, he will naturally have arrangements for you.”

“Mm.”

Lan Xuanyu stood behind, listening to this exchange. He understood that for them, the greatest test of this journey would arrive tonight. If they could get past Huang Yuanlang’s father, it would mean they could lay down roots in Fenglong City. Otherwise, they would have to consider how to escape.

After lunch, Huang Yuanlang didn’t linger; he showed Bai Xiuxiu around the house for a bit and then left.

The castle-like building was indeed large, with many rooms within.

Bai Xiuxiu’s own bedroom was spacious, with two areas; one was for resting in her human form, and the other was for her Dragon Clan form.

Moreover, in the master bedroom, there was an abundance of life energy. The lines drawn on the ground appeared to be designed specifically for condensing Life Force. It was very special. The life breath in the air naturally followed these lines and was guided into the room, making the concentration of life energy almost comparable to soaking in the Sea God’s Lake water.

Bai Xiuxiu led Lan Xuanyu and the other two into her room and closed the door. The four of them carefully checked the residence to ensure there were no surveillance devices. Then, a four-colored light wafted from Lan Xuanyu, forming a silent, four-colored membrane that shielded their presence in the room.

After cultivating the Annihilation Divine Thunder, Lan Xuanyu found his control over elements increasingly fluid.

“What shall we do tonight?” Bai Xiuxiu asked Lan Xuanyu.

Lan Xuanyu said, “The situation with Huang Yuanlang’s father is still unclear. But drinking that Dragon Blood Tree Juice today was a good thing. With it, he has effectively reconfirmed your identity. This evening when you meet his father, I suspect he will test your strength. Be careful to conceal any abilities not related to the Ice Devil Dragon in that regard. You may display a bit of your close combat abilities. We will accompany you, but it’s uncertain if we’ll be allowed inside. If we can get in, that would be best, but if not, we’ll be ready nearby to come to your aid at any time.”

“I will have Ah Bao monitor your situation through divine consciousness. If your identity is exposed, you detonate this,” he said, handing her an Anger of the Dragon.

“Even God Rank strong individuals must temporarily retreat in the face of the Anger of the Dragon. I will appear by your side at the first opportunity and take you away.”

“While saying this, he turned to Yuanen Huihui and Tang Yuge, ‘If Xiuxiu is discovered to have an issue, I will have you two leave immediately, out of the range of the Anger of the Dragon. Then you’ll need to create chaos on both sides of Fenglong City. After creating chaos, everyone will meet up at Tree Elder’s location. After I rescue Xiuxiu, I will lead the City Lord away and then rendezvous with you. At that moment, you mustn’t hesitate.’

‘Isn’t that too dangerous?’ Yuanen Huihui asked.

Lan Xuanyu replied, ‘I should be confident in making an escape. My sixth soul skill, Silver Patterned Bluesilver Grass, controls space elements and allows me to teleport within a certain distance. I also have the Emerald Demon Warship. With its speed, even ordinary God Rank strong people won’t be able to catch up.’

‘Of course, all this is predicated on us being exposed. We obviously don’t hope to be exposed. Ordinary God level strong people wouldn’t detect us, but if it draws the attention of individuals like the Sky Dragon Leader or a Dragon Knight, it would be very difficult. Xiuxiu, I will keep in touch with you through Ah Bao at all times. Continue playing the part of someone with a cold personality, and try to speak as little as possible. The less you say, the fewer mistakes you’ll make.’

‘Okay,’ Bai Xiuxiu nodded her head.

The residence that Huang Yuanlang had arranged for Bai Xiuxiu was very large and fully equipped, especially the two main bedrooms for Bai Xiuxiu, where the life energy was exceptionally rich due to the effects of a special magical pattern, making it very suitable for cultivation.

After arranging accommodations for Lan Xuanyu and the others, everyone actually gathered in Bai Xiuxiu’s room to cultivate, absorbing life energy to enhance themselves.

The days on Sky Dragon Planet were long. When night fell, rather than coming in person, Huang Yuanlang sent his subordinate Ilay Shellon again with a Dragon Car to take Bai Xiuxiu to the City Lord Manor.

Bai Xiuxiu, still accompanied by Lan Xuanyu and the two others, boarded the Dragon Car. The car moved smoothly, and as Lan Xuanyu watched Bai Xiuxiu sitting in front of him, he felt somewhat nervous. The most important test was imminent. Only by passing this test would the gates of Sky Dragon Planet truly be open to them, and Bai Xiuxiu’s identity would be fully established. This would be of tremendous importance for their future infiltration. But it could also be a complete loss—if any problems were discovered, they would really be in trouble.

Now, it was time to see Bai Xiuxiu’s performance.

Before long, the Dragon Car came to a stop, and Ilay Shellon made a welcoming gesture, ‘Lady Xiuxiu, please.’

The group got out of the car, and a huge castle had already come into view. Judging by its style, it resembled Bai Xiuxiu’s residence somewhat, but it was at least ten times bigger. On both sides of the grand entrance stood towering walls, lined with statues representing the various species of the Dragon Horse Star System, likely meant to show inclusivity towards all species.

The broad main road was wide enough for a Dragon Car to drive in, but the car stopped just outside the gate. The central door was wide open, and several figures stood inside—yes, all in human form.

One of them, a tall middle-aged man who bore a 60 to 70 percent resemblance to Huang Yuanlang, wore a golden yellow robe with a waistband, his short hair standing upright, and his whole body seemed to emit a faint golden halo.

Huang Yuanlang stood by his side, also dressed up for the occasion. Standing parallel to him were several other individuals, both male and female, who seemed a bit younger than Huang Yuanlang and were curiously looking over.

As Bai Xiuxiu, dressed in a long white dress, arrived, Huang Yuanlang’s eyes lit up, and he quickly stepped forward to greet her.

‘Beloved sister, this way please. Let me introduce you,’ he said, guiding Bai Xiuxiu towards the middle-aged man. ‘This is my father, the Lord of Fenglong City, Huang Daoqi.’

Bai Xiuxiu bowed slightly, greeting Huang Daoqi, ‘Patriarch, it’s good to meet you, I am Xiuxiu. Thank you for personally welcoming me.’

Ever since Bai Xiuxiu appeared, Huang Daoqi’s gaze had been appraising her. He smiled faintly upon hearing her and said, ‘Such a beautiful young lady. No wonder Yuan Lang speaks so highly of you. Each high-ranking member of the Dragon Clan is one of the brightest stars on Sky Dragon Planet. I am honored that you are willing to join the Imperial family. As a patriarch and an elder, it’s natural for me to greet you upon our first meeting. Next time you come, I won’t be greeting you, because this will also be your home, and we don’t need such formalities with family. Come, let’s go inside and talk,’ he said, gesturing for Bai Xiuxiu to enter.
