Unparalleled After Ten Consecutive Draws - Chapter 1881
1881 Dragon King’s Birthday Banquet, Dao King Presents His Gift, Long Shuijing Arrives
“Tell me, who allowed you to commit such atrocities within the land of the Dragon Tribe? Aren’t you all afraid of going to war with the Dragon Tribe?” Long Shuijing asked one of the remaining Dao King Tribe members coldly.
“Hehe! Who’s the strongest in the Dragon Tribe now?” The Dao King Tribe’s survivor grinned with his face covered with blood.
“What do you mean?”
“Without the permission of the strongest within the Dragon Tribe, why would the Dao King Tribe take such a risk by committing this act?”
“Do you mean… my father?” Long Shuijing’s expression sank, and so did the expressions of the other Dragon Tribe members.
!!
“Impossible. Why would the Dragon King allow this?”
“Yeah! You’re lying!”
The others refused to believe the Dao King Tribe’s survivor.
Long Shuijing’s expression turned grim. “Tell me the truth.”
“I am telling the truth!”
“Nonsense!”
Long Shuijing knew her father well enough. Even if he was vicious and heartless toward her, allowing outsiders to harm his own people was simply outrageous and unbelievable. Moreover, he was the leader of the tribe.
Then, Chu Kuangren walked up to the Dao King Tribe’s cultivator.
When the man looked at Chu Kuangren, his eyes widened in fear. “Y-You’re the Heavenly Sword? Why are you here?”
Chu Kuangren ignored the man and raised his hand to activate Soul Scouring Technique, causing the latter to cry in pain.
A while later, Chu Kuangren got a better understanding of the situation through the man’s memories.
“I see…”
“Master, was it the truth?” Long Shuijing asked.
Chu Kuangren glanced at her and nodded. “You can say so.”
Long Shuijing trembled, and her face paled. She said in disbelief, “How is this possible? No matter how heartless and vicious my father is, why would he allow outsiders to hurt our people?”
“Why don’t you ask him yourself?” Chu Kuangren asked.
The man he used the Soul Scouring Technique on was just a middle-tier cultivator of the Dao King Tribe, who had limited knowledge of the whole situation. The true secret must be with the higher-ups or only a few highest executive members.
“I understand.”
Long Shuijing looked at the other Dragon Tribe members, and her gaze turned resolute.
For the sake of her people, she had to get an answer from her father!
…
Meanwhile, on the Ancient Dragon Tribe Planet, forces from all over the place gathered to celebrate the Dragon King’s birthday, including those from different King Tribes.
The Poison Ivy Tribe, the Red Devil Tribe, the Earth Spirit Tribe, and many others attended.
Even the Overlord Tribe, an Ancient King Tribe, sent their representatives.
The number of attendees showed how high of a reputation the Dragon Tribe had in the Central Heaven Universe.
“Hahaha! The Dao King Tribe is here to celebrate the Dragon King’s birthday, and we present to you a blood coral tree. I hope the Dragon King likes it.”
A voice sounded.
Colorful light shone through the void, and from the light, a tree of blood coral emerged.
The coral tree was crimson in color, emanating endless Immortal Sparks, and had many jewels embedded in it.
When the coral tree appeared, the spiritual energy in the area grew restless.
Arriving together with the coral tree were a few more people.
The leader was a gentleman in white robes. He was the most spectacular Prodigy of the Dao King Tribe, Mo Tianheng.
“What a great coral tree!”
“Only an Ancient King Tribe can present such a treasure. The present from the Dao King Tribe is rather special.”
“Strange. Since when were the Dao King Tribe and the Dragon Tribe so close? Isn’t this a little too generous as a present?”
“It’s indeed strange.”
The value of the present sparked discussion among the guests.
The Dao King Tribe was notorious in the universe, and it was strange enough for the Dragon Tribe to invite them to the banquet.
Moreover, to everyone’s surprise, the Dao King Tribe presented such a valuable treasure as a gift for the Dragon King.
Everything about it was strange.
“Hahaha! I have to thank the Dao King for the valuable present.” The Dragon King laughed as he expressed his gratitude.
Mo Tianheng laughed and said, “Our tribe searched high and low for this coral tree just so we could present it to you at your birthday banquet, Dragon King. Please work closely with us from now on.”
“Of course, of course.”
The two exchanged some courteous chatters.
“It seems like the Dao King Tribe and the Dragon King Tribe have secrets that we don’t know of. Interesting.”
Heaven Maiden You chuckled as she stood among the guests. She was one of the representatives of her tribe here to congratulate the Dragon King.
As one of the Nine Kings, her status preceded the others, and she was arranged to sit at the VIP table with all kinds of dishes served. Even wine that was ten thousand years old floated at the table, allowing the guests to have a taste of it.
When Mo Tianheng arrived, he immediately noticed her and went up to her with a fist salute. He said respectfully, “Greetings, Mo Tianheng sends his regards to the Mystic Divination Heaven Maiden.”
“Greetings. You’re welcome.” Heaven Maiden You smiled.
“Hehe. Considering that the Nine Kings are under the spotlight of the universe now, who would’ve thought that the Mystic Divination Heaven Maiden would come to wish the Dragon King herself.”
“The Dragon King is senior to me, and I am just a junior. It’s normal for a junior to be there for a senior’s birthday,” Heaven Maiden You said with a smile.
Upon hearing her words, the Dragon King felt relieved and proud. He chuckled and said, “Mystic Divination Heaven Maiden, you’re too kind.”
Then, Mo Tianheng continued chatting with Heaven Maiden You.
However, Heaven Maiden You clearly sensed a hidden motive with Mo Tianheng, so she did not engage with him for long.
Even though Heaven Maiden You gave him the cold shoulder, Mo Tianheng was very friendly toward her. He came up with different topics just to capture Heaven Maiden You’s attention.
The other guests noticed his persistence but were not surprised. No man in the Central Heaven Universe could hold back their feelings for a beautiful woman like Heaven Maiden You.
Moreover, she was one of the Nine Kings. If she could grow stronger, she would become one of the strongest beings in the universe.
She was the cultivation of beauty and power, so who would not fall for her? Not even Mo Tianheng could hold back his feelings.
The banquet continued with more guests arriving.
Prodigies such as Luo Xue of the Luo King Tribe, Xiang Tianchang of the Overlord Tribe, Feng Qiyu of the Wind Tribe, and so on arrived.
Strangely, whenever there was a gathering of all the forces, the Emperor Tribe would always be the first to show, or at least, they would always make a grand entrance.
They had been the focus of the people for as long as it had been, but this time, no one from the Emperor Tribe came.
“I heard the Heavenly Sword struck the Emperor Tribe so terribly that they can’t even attend the Dragon King’s birthday banquet.”
“The Heavenly Sword is indeed a powerful person.”
“No one would disagree.”
At the mention of the Heavenly Sword, the guests seemed to have found a common topic, and they started to talk about his achievements.
The Heavenly Sword was not around, yet he became the center of attention, shadowing the other Prodigies with his just name alone. Everyone was impressed.
It seemed like throughout the entire Central Heaven Universe, the Heavenly Sword was the only one whose name had such power.
Then, colorful light shone in the sky.
Countless Dragon Tribe cultivators sensed palpitations in their hearts when they saw the light.
As soon as they looked up, their expressions turned somber.
Dragon’s roar sounded from the colorful light. Then, a colorful dragon shadow emerged from it, with a domineering dragon aura.
The arrival of the dragon surprised everyone.
“It’s Long Shuijing!”
“Why is she here?”
Some of the Dragon Tribe’s cultivators were excited to see her.
“It’s the Dragon Maiden!”
“The Dragon Maiden is back! Is she here to wish the Dragon King a happy birthday?”
“Of course!”
Most of the Dragon Tribe’s cultivators were clueless as to what happened between Long Shuijing and the Dragon King. Only a handful of them knew the truth.
Those who knew reacted with a somber look, wondering what was she doing back here at that particular time.
