Chapter 165: Ancient Void Dragon Clan
🕑 Added 2023-07-17 16:55:22 +0000 UTCAs Zi Yan's words fell, even Hun Tu's gaze towards her changed slightly, and he thought to himself, "Could it be that she is also a future lady of the clan?"
It's no wonder Hun Tu would think this way. In the past, he would never have thought like this! After all, no one knew better than them, the clan members, about their own clan leader.
A woman?
Just a skull covered in makeup. Hun Tiandi had never paid any attention to such things. But now, things were different.
Times have changed!
Their clan leader has changed too. They used to be able to guess what the clan leader was thinking.
But now it's different. They simply can't figure it out!
Who knows what Hun Tiandi is thinking?
First, he took a wife!
Then... judging from the treatment of Gu Xun’er within the Soul Clan, Hun Tu had a rough idea.
It's likely that their clan leader didn't even let go of Gu Xun’er, the daughter of his former enemy.
So, when Hun Tu heard Zi Yan's words, he couldn't help but think that she might be the third wife within the Soul Clan.
Perhaps... even Qing Lin, whom the clan leader brought back and asked him to take care of, could become a future wife.
Fortunately, Hun Tu treated Qing Ling fairly well. Even if she did become one of the mistresses of the Soul Clan in the future, his position as the Elder would remain unchanged, and maybe it would even rise to a higher level!
...
Hun Tiandi didn't answer Zi Yan's question nor care about what Hun Tu was thinking. He waved his hand towards Hun Tu and said, "Hun Tu, you may leave."
"Yes!" Hun Tu acknowledged and left.
Inside the grand hall-
Zi Yan looked at Hun Tiandi.
Hun Tiandi, towering above, gazed down at Zi Yan and thought to himself, "The bloodline of the Ancient Void Dragon Clan is indeed powerful.”
“In just a short time, about a year or so, she has advanced from a one-star Dou Sheng to a three-star Dou Sheng! Terrifying talent in cultivation!"
"This kind of talent in cultivation..."
Zi Yan's astonishing cultivation talent truly shocked Hun Tiandi and gradually made him develop his own thoughts about her, despite initially having no feelings towards her.
The combination of this terrifying bloodline with the Dou Di bloodline of the Soul Clan would result in offspring with immensely powerful bloodline talent. It was a terrifying thought!
Zi Yan's advancement from a one-star Dou Sheng to a three-star Dou Sheng in just over a year was not only due to her natural talent in cultivation but also because of the support from the Soul Clan.
Since Zi Yan arrived in the Soul Clan, no one dared to provoke her under Hun Tiandi's orders. Whenever Zi Yan spoke, she would be provided with any cultivation resources she needed.
It was precisely because of these spiritual treasures and resources that Zi Yan was able to advance from a one-star Dou Sheng to a three-star Dou Sheng in just over a year.
This showed the importance of cultivation resources!
...
Hun Tiandi said, "Zi Yan, I heard that you wanted to see me. I'm curious, what do you want to see me about?"
Zi Yan replied, "Why haven't we gone to the Ancient Void Dragon Clan? Didn't you promise my father that you would help me become the Dragon Empress of the Ancient Void Dragon Clan?"
For the past year, Zi Yan had been working hard in cultivation to strive to return to the Ancient Void Dragon Clan and become their Dragon Empress!
She realized that relying on her own strength alone wouldn't be enough to become the Dragon Empress of the Ancient Void Dragon Clan. She needed external help!
After all...
What was the current situation within the Ancient Void Dragon Clan? She had no idea. Suddenly returning to the Ancient Void Dragon Clan and declaring herself as the Dragon Empress would undoubtedly face opposition.
As one of the three major clans in the Demon Beast Realm, the Ancient Void Dragon Clan has a strong foundation.
If she wanted to succeed and become the Dragon Empress of the Ancient Void Dragon Clan, it wouldn't be an easy task.
Fortunately, she had the support of Hun Tiandi and the Soul Clan!
After coming to the Soul Clan, Zi Yan witnessed Hun Tiandi's power and the strength of the Soul Clan. She naturally understood the terror of the Soul Clan!
She was no longer the little girl she used to be.
Now, she aspired to become the Empress, the future Dragon Empress of the Ancient Void Dragon Clan. This couldn't be achieved without the support of Hun Tiandi.
Therefore...
After reaching the three-star Dou Sheng level, Zi Yan wanted to meet Hun Tiandi. She was eager to return home and see what the Ancient Void Dragon Clan was like.
...
Hun Tiandi said, "So now you want to return to the Ancient Void Dragon Clan and become the Dragon Empress?"
"Yes!" Zi Yan nodded slightly and said, "That's right. I feel that with my current strength and your support, I can definitely become the Dragon Empress of the Ancient Void Dragon Clan!"
Zi Yan tightened her fist, filled with confidence.
Hun Tiandi said, "You're not ready yet. You will become the Dragon Empress of the Ancient Void Dragon Clan, but you must be patient."
Zi Yan, feeling dissatisfied, looked at Hun Tiandi and said, "But I feel that I'm ready. I'm already strong enough!"
"I don't want your opinion. If I say you're not ready, then you're not ready. There's no room for negotiation!"
"Now, go back and focus on cultivation. When you reach the five-star Dou Sheng level, I will personally take you to the Ancient Void Dragon Clan and help you become the supreme Dragon Empress."
"For now, be obedient and continue cultivating diligently. If there are any cultivation resources you need, just ask. As long as the Soul Clan has them, we will do our best to satisfy your requests."
Zi Yan protested, "But I'm already very strong now!"
She truly believed that she was already very strong!
With the royal bloodline of the Ancient Void Dragon Clan, even though she was only a three-star Dou Sheng, she was confident enough to fight against a four-star Dou Sheng.
In addition, she possessed the treasured divine weapon of the Ancient Void Dragon Clan, the Dragon Slaying Sword.
Zi Yan believed that within the Ancient Void Dragon Clan, anyone below the five-star Dou Sheng level would be no match for her.
Apart from the suppression of strength, there was also the suppression of bloodline.
The royal bloodline of the Ancient Void Dragon Clan was enough to suppress the majority of their own clan members!
"You're strong?"
Hun Tiandi looked at Zi Yan and asked.
Zi Yan, with a serious expression, straightened her body and raised her head. She confidently said, "Yes, I am strong!"
Whether Zi Yan was truly strong or not, Hun Tiandi didn't know, but...
Zi Yan's proud and defiant posture was truly impressive!
Her front was so big that one hand wouldn't be able to hold it!
Whoosh!
A terrifying aura emanated from Hun Tiandi, pressing down on Zi Yan. In the face of this terrifying aura, Zi Yan's expression changed, and she couldn't help but take several steps back.
The overwhelming pressure felt like a towering mountain, causing her legs to tremble uncontrollably.
Hun Tiandi said, "Do you still think you're strong? In my eyes, this is just a fraction of my oppressive aura, and you can't even withstand it. Tell me, are you truly strong?"
Zi Yan's face turned pale, and her slender legs trembled violently. If Hun Tiandi hadn't intentionally restrained himself...
Zi Yan wouldn't just have trembling legs; she would have fallen to the ground. Seeing that Zi Yan had reached her limit, Hun Tiandi retracted his oppressive aura.
As the pressure dissipated, Zi Yan gradually regained her composure, panting heavily.
When Zi Yan had almost recovered, she stubbornly said, "You're bullying me. Don't think I don't know that you're at the pinnacle of the Nine-star Dou Sheng level, approaching the Dou Di level. Even a fraction of your oppressive aura is something I can't bear."
Hun Tiandi calmly said, "You think highly of yourself, don't you? Then why couldn't you withstand even a fraction of my oppressive aura?"
"With your current state, you're not worthy of becoming the Dragon Empress of the Ancient Void Dragon Clan."
Zi Yan remained stubborn and said, "The Ancient Void Dragon Clan doesn't have someone as powerful as you. You're just bullying me!"
She spoke, feeling a bit wronged, and left the hall. She ran away.
Watching Zi Yan's departing figure, Hun Tiandi murmured, "She's still too young. The entire Ancient Void Dragon Clan is beyond her grasp for now. She still needs room for growth!"
However, Zi Yan's words served as a wake-up call for Hun Tiandi. He realized that he should pay a visit to the Ancient Void Dragon Clan.
But he would go alone, without Zi Yan!
...
Zi Yan, with an angry expression on her face, looked back at the direction of the hall and said angrily, "Hmph... I knew he was bullying me! So what if he's at the pinnacle of the Nine-star Dou Sheng level? Once I'm free from this situation, I'll make him regret it!"
"Hmph..."
"Hmph..."
...
Zi Yan's face was filled with a proud and angry expression. Her puffed-up face made people unable to help but want to pinch it. It wasn't out of any other intention, just the desire to experience the sensation!
Whoosh!
Suddenly, Zi Yan, with her indignant and proud expression, thought of something and her anger turned into a smile.
She said, "Indeed, I may not be able to defeat him, but I am still very strong! If I can't defeat him, then I'll defeat his woman!"
Zi Yan knew that Hun Tiandi's woman was Xiao Yi Xian, the woman who had married Hun Tiandi.
Even if she couldn't defeat Hun Tiandi, Zi Yan couldn't believe that she wouldn't be able to defeat Hun Tiandi's woman, Xiao Yi Xian either!
...
Zi Yan found Xiao Yi Xian.
Facing the visitor, Xiao Yi Xian's expression showed surprise and confusion.
Zi Yan, with an air of dominance, pointed at Xiao Yi Xian and said, "I want to challenge you!"
"Huh?" Xiao Yi Xian was taken aback and asked curiously, "Zi Yan, why are you here to find me?"
"Why do you want to challenge me?"
Xiao Yi Xian and Zi Yan had both come to the Soul Clan together. Initially, Xiao Yi Xian couldn't see through Zi Yan's strength at all.
But now, it was different. Xiao Yi Xian had already reached the Eight-star Dou Sheng level, and Zi Yan's strength was no secret to her.
Three-star Dou Sheng!
That used to be a realm of strength that Xiao Yi Xian didn't dare to imagine. But now... a three-star Dou Sheng's strength might be considered formidable in the eyes of others, but in Xiao Yi Xian's eyes, it was just mediocre.
With Zi Yan's current strength, challenging her seemed like seeking abuse.
Xiao Yi Xian was curious about the reason behind her challange.
She couldn't recall ever offending Zi Yan!
"Hmph..." Zi Yan coldly snorted and said, "Ask your man! He bullied me, and I couldn't defeat him. So, I came to find you."
"What?" Xiao Yi Xian was surprised and looked Zi Yan up and down. She asked, "My husband, Hun Tiandi, bullied you?"
The appearance of Zi Yan was indeed more beautiful than hers, especially her pair of straight and slender legs.
Saying that her husband, Hun Tiandi, bullied Zi Yan might indeed be possible. However, Xiao Yi Xian was somewhat surprised.
Her husband, Hun Tiandi, was indeed very powerful. If her husband had bullied Zi Yan, Zi Yan shouldn't be able to act so lively and energetic.
"Could it be that Zi Yan's body is even stronger than mine?"
"Why are you staring?" Zi Yan coldly snorted, noticing the gaze of Xiao Yi Xian focused on her legs. Zi Yan raised her head proudly and said, "Envious, aren't you? My legs are long and straight!"
Xiao Yi Xian withdrew her gaze, shook her head, and thought, "This shouldn't be possible! How could the body of a three-star Dou Sheng be stronger than that of an eight-star Dou Sheng like me? Could it be that Zi Yan's idea of 'bullying' is different from what I imagined?"
Zi Yan said, "Why are you shaking your head? Are you rejecting me?"
Xiao Yi Xian said, "Zi Yan, go back! You're not my match."
"That's impossible!" Zi Yan instantly became displeased and said, "I'm a three-star Dou Sheng now, and I'm very strong."
She came to challenge Xiao Yi Xian to bully her and find a sense of superiority. Since Hun Tiandi had bullied her and she couldn't defeat him, she couldn't possibly lose to Xiao Yi Xian as well, right?
Xiao Yi Xian said, "Zi Yan, even though you're a three-star Dou Sheng now, you're still not my match."
Come on!
She was already an eight-star Dou Sheng, and Zi Yan, a three-star Dou Sheng, simply couldn't be her match.
"Hmph..." Zi Yan didn't believe what Xiao Yi Xian said at all and declared, "I don't believe it. Since you won't make the first move..."
"Then I'll attack first."
As Zi Yan's words fell, she made a move against Xiao Yi Xian, although she didn't use her full strength. She knew that Xiao Yi Xian was weak.
"Ah..." Xiao Yi Xian let out a sigh and said, "Zi Yan, why bother? You're simply not my match."
As Xiao Yi Xian spoke, black poisonous mist emerged from her body. The mist enveloped Zi Yan, causing her body to pause for a moment.
Soon, Zi Yan felt herself becoming weak, unable to gather any trace of Dou Qi within her body. She collapsed on the ground, completely drained of strength.
A sense of exhaustion permeated her entire body. Zi Yan shook her head, her eyelids drooping as she felt overwhelmed by sleepiness.
She fought to keep her eyes open and murmured, "What... is happening? I'm so tired and weak..."
The voice of Xiao Yi Xian sounded at this moment, saying, "Zi Yan, my dear sister, I specialize in poisons. You have fallen victim to my poison. You can't even get close to me. With what are you challenging me?"
"You should surrender!"
"If you admit defeat, I will spare you."
"I..."
Upon hearing this, Zi Yan instantly realized that the source of the purple poison mist was Xiao Yi Xian herself.
She thought, "It seems that I am indeed no match for Xiao Yi Xian. How frustrating! I remember that she used to be so weak. We arrived at the Soul Clan together, so why is she so much stronger than me now?"
"Could it be that Hun Tiandi secretly favored Xiao Yi Xian? That's the only explanation that makes sense."
"This is so infuriating! We came to the Soul Clan together. Why does Xiao Yi Xian receive special treatment? Is it just because she's his woman and I'm not? The biased Hun Tiandi!"
But upon further consideration, it made sense that Hun Tiandi would favor Xiao Yi Xian. After all, she was his woman, while Zi Yan was merely his female acquaintance.
