Chapter 1262 - 1252: You Are the Worst Emperor
Chapter 1262 - 1252: You Are the Worst Emperor
The old man sitting cross-legged on the ground was precisely the Thunder God who had once, a hundred years ago, dominated the Witch Star Continent.
The Thunder God opened his eyes, swept a glance at Long Aotian behind the Emperor of Great Dragon, and said calmly:
"Long Heng, he’s your son?"
The Emperor of Great Dragon immediately said respectfully:
"Yes, he is the Eldest Prince, and also the future heir of the Imperial... Ao Tian, hurry and pay respects to Grandfather Thunder God."
Long Aotian immediately kowtowed and said in a loud voice:
"Grandson Long Aotian pays respects to Grandfather Thunder God. Congratulations to Grandfather Thunder God on emerging from Cultivation. I wish Grandfather Thunder God robust health, life as long as the green mountains, and eternal flourishing!"
A trace of sharp light flashed in the Thunder God’s eyes. He glanced at Long Aotian and said lightly:
"Your mouth is quite sweet."
"Grandson is sincerely wishing blessings upon Grandfather Thunder God."
"Kid, what Level is your Dragon Soul? Heaven, Earth, or Human? Does it belong to the Human Dragon Beast Soul or the Earth Dragon Soul?"
When Long Aotian heard this, he instantly said in embarrassment:
"Grandson... Grandson has no Dragon Soul."
The cave suddenly fell deathly silent.
After a long while, the Thunder God let out a soft sigh,
"Long Heng, has the Great Dragon King Clan declined to such a point now? The heir of the Imperial actually doesn’t even have a Dragon Soul!"
The Emperor of Great Dragon immediately lowered his head,
"This nephew is ashamed, I have failed our forefathers!"
"Ai, the Heavenly Dao has cycles, all things wax and wane. From ancient times until now, no Imperial Dynasty can remain undefeated for all eternity, and no Royal Family can shine forever."
As the Thunder God spoke, he slowly stood up from the ground.
"You two, stand up."
Only then did the Emperor of Great Dragon and Long Aotian rise and stand respectfully to the side.
The Emperor of Great Dragon cautiously asked:
"Uncle, has your Conscious Soul Eternal Evergreen Genetic Evolution Method succeeded in Cultivation? According to what you told me last time, today is the day of your final emergence from seclusion."
Hearing the Emperor of Great Dragon’s words, a hint of disappointment flashed in the Thunder God’s eyes. He froze for a moment, then said faintly:
"How could there be any so-called Eternal Evergreen Genetic Evolution Method in this world? All things that arise must perish. Immortality and eternal indestructibility are nothing but human greed and dreams."
The Emperor of Great Dragon’s heart gave a jolt. From the meaning of the Thunder God’s words, the Genetic Evolution Method he had cultivated in seclusion for decades had actually failed?
Long Aotian and his father did not dare to ask further. They only stood respectfully to the side; the atmosphere in the cave was somewhat oppressive.
The Thunder God swept a glance over the two and said:
"Long Heng, I just heard you say that you not only brought your son to see me, but also brought the Imperial hundred officials and War Generals over. Is there something going on?"
The Emperor of Great Dragon immediately bowed and said:
"Uncle, this nephew is ashamed for not being able to carry forward the Great Dragon Empire. At present, our Imperial is facing a grave crisis. This nephew’s personal ability is limited and I cannot control the overall situation. I wish to ask Uncle to come forward. With your heavenly might, you will surely be able to easily resolve this matter."
The Thunder God was slightly taken aback and asked:
"Your war with the Flying Leopard Empire still hasn’t ended?"
"Uncle, the situation is like this..."
The Emperor of Great Dragon immediately gave a rough account of the events of these past years and finally said:
"Uncle, this battle concerns the life and death of our Great Dragon Empire and the fate of the Imperial. We cannot afford any mistakes. In utter helplessness, this nephew could only disturb your quiet Cultivation and invite you to come forth."
After listening to the Emperor of Great Dragon’s account, the Thunder God sighed and said:
"Ai, I did not expect the Great Dragon Empire to have declined to such a state, that you can’t even deal with a Miner Slave from Earth. If your father’s heroic spirit in death were aware, how could he rest in peace?"
With a "thud!" sound,
The Emperor of Great Dragon once again knelt down and said sorrowfully:
"This nephew is incompetent and has failed our forefathers!"
The Thunder God waved his large hand,
"Enough. While I’m not dead yet, I’ll help you one more time. But you must remember, in the future I fear I will no longer be able to help you. Everything will have to depend on yourself."
"Uncle, you?"
"Don’t be surprised. I’m already almost three hundred years old. Do you really think I can Zhan Sheng the natural law of birth, aging, sickness, and death, and live forever?"
"This nephew wishes Uncle eternal health and longevity!"
"Forget it, let’s not talk about this. Take me out. I’ll go with you to the Flying Leopard Empire. Ai, back then I was also good brothers with the former Flying Leopard Emperor, Wanyan Qingshan,
and now look at this, this old man has to go to my good brother’s house to bully his son.
Ai, when I die in the future and my soul meets Wanyan Qingshan, I’ll really have no face to speak of this matter."
The Thunder God’s words made the Emperor of Great Dragon’s expression extremely awkward.
Long Aotian hurriedly led the way in front. The Emperor of Great Dragon accompanied the Thunder God, and the three walked out of the cave.
Once outside the cave, the Thunder God said:
"You come with me and go directly to the Flying Leopard Empire through the Transmission Array. There’s no need to mobilize your armies for now."
"Yes!"
"Grandfather Thunder God, the Imperial ministers and War Generals are all waiting below to welcome your emergence from seclusion. Would you like to go see them? They admire you greatly. You are the legendary heroic figure in the hearts of all citizens of our Great Dragon Empire."
The Thunder God chuckled and said:
"There’s no need to see them. Kid, go inform those subordinates to leave. Your father, the Emperor, and I will go directly to the Flying Leopard Empire."
As he spoke, the Thunder God’s figure flickered and appeared several hundred meters away, not even leaving behind a single afterimage.
The Emperor of Great Dragon’s heart stirred. He immediately exerted his full strength, used Instantaneous Movement, and hurriedly chased after him, tossing a sentence back to Long Aotian,
"Ao Tian, go and lead the ministers halfway up the mountain back!"
Long Aotian was stunned for a moment, then helplessly shook his head and flew toward the mountainside.
...
A short while later, the Emperor of Great Dragon arrived at the Transmission Array of Dragon City and saw that the Thunder God had long been waiting outside the Transmission Array.
Although people were coming and going outside the Transmission Array, no one recognized the Thunder God, this old man.
At this moment, apart from the strength of his spiritual aura, the Thunder God’s clothes were very plain. In the eyes of ordinary people, he was just an old man. Even if he understood some Genetic Evolution Method, he would probably only be at the Empire Level Realm at best.
Old men like this could be found in great numbers in Dragon City of the Great Dragon Empire.
The Emperor of Great Dragon descended from midair in front of the Thunder God and said respectfully:
"Uncle, you arrived early, didn’t you?"
"Long Heng, your Genetic Evolution over these years hasn’t improved at all. Your speed is still that slow? I even deliberately slowed down. Otherwise, if I hadn’t waited for you, I would have long since arrived at the Flying Leopard Empire by now and would already have captured that brat Yang Xiao and delivered him to you."
The guards at the entrance of the Transmission Station, as well as the people coming and going, saw the Emperor of Great Dragon descend from midair and immediately knelt in unison, shouting:
"Greetings to the Emperor!"
The Emperor of Great Dragon waved his hand to the guards and the surrounding people, then said to the Thunder God with an embarrassed look:
"Uncle, you know this. I reached the limit of Genetic Evolution long ago and can no longer break through. How could I compare to you? You have an Earth Dragon Soul, while I only have a Human Dragon Beast Soul."
"Enough, let’s not talk about this. Among all the Emperors of Great Dragon throughout history, you are the worst one. Of course, your son will be even worse than you in the future. Let’s go!"
With that, the Thunder God flashed into the Transmission Array.
The Emperor of Great Dragon, his face full of shame, followed him into the Transmission Array.
The surrounding guards and crowd all watched this scene in astonishment.
