"Sister Xiaoman, what happened to brother?"
After a while, Du Xiaoqing caressed the tombstone and turned around to look at Du Xiaoman.
She had rushed back to the Dark Forest from the Central Province. After arriving at the Chaotic Demon City, she had learned that her brother had been dead for a long time.
Too many changes had happened in the past two years.
When they heard the news, they immediately rushed back to the Stone City. Everything was laid out before their eyes.
At this moment, Du Xiaoqing's heart was filled with unbearable pain. She didn't expect that after separating from her brother, it would be forever. She couldn't accept it.
"We don't know either. He was severely injured and returned. His life force had dissipated. In the end, he didn't want to tell us. The Ancient Heaven Sect and we tried our best, but we still couldn't keep him."
Du Xiaoman walked up to Du Xiaoqing's side and said, "I'll tell you the details later. Don't be too sad."
"Brother!"
Du Xiaoqing raised her head. Within her beautiful figure, dazzling mysterious runes suddenly burst out like countless threads of energy. A terrifying aura shot up into the sky and swept out in all directions.
"What a powerful aura!"
That terrifying aura instantly caused the Medicine King Yi Wuming's expression to change. Under that aura, even he couldn't resist it.
"Roar …"
Under this terrifying aura, the Silver Winged Demonic Eagle, Blue Flame Red Leopard, Subduing Tiger Mastiff, Mysterious Dragon King, Stone Turtle King, Ice Python King, Flame Carp King, and other demonic beast experts suddenly prostrated themselves.
That aura was so terrifying that they couldn't resist it at all.
"Third Young Master!"
The black-robed young man shouted. His eyes trembled. Suddenly, a tiger's roar came out of his mouth.
"Roar!"
This tiger's roar caused a soundwave to surge into the sky, and it was like a surging wave that shook the heavens and the earth to the point it rumbled and shook the hearts of all. The soundwave surged like a thunderclap!
This tiger's roar spread out and resounded through the Savage Beast Mountain Range. It caused the demonic beasts in the Savage Beast Mountain Range to prostrate themselves and tremble!
"The Vice Palace Master's cultivation has reached such a terrifying level!"
The Silver Winged Demonic Eagle and the others were shocked. The aura from Du Xiaoqing was many times stronger than two years ago.
"Is that the Little Tiger's human form? It has reached such a terrifying level!"
The Medicine King Yi Wuming looked at the black-robed young man. That familiar aura and the tiger's roar. It was the aura of the King scaled Demonic Tiger's body.
At this moment, Doctor Wuming was shocked. The aura of the King Scaled Demonic Tiger had also reached that level.
Du Xiaoyao stood on Du Xiaoqing's shoulder and looked at the tombstone. Her eyes moved, but she did not show much reaction.
There was an astonishing commotion. Under the dusk sky, Stone City trembled. A tide of people rushed out and stopped to look in the direction of the Du family.
Then news spread that the Roc Emperor's sister, Du Xiaoqing, had returned. She was a terrifying expert.
After a while, only the Medicine King Yi Wuming, Du Yunlong, Du Xiaoman, Du Zhenwu, Du Zhixiong, the Silver Winged Demonic Eagle, the Mysterious Flood Dragon King, the Golden Condor King, the Solitary Sword King, and a few other experts were present.
Du Xiaoqing and the Little Tiger's expressions were solemn and sorrowful. They learned from Du Xiaoman and Du Yunlong what had happened after they left.
Hearing that her brother's vitality had dissipated and that he couldn't obtain the Dragon Qi from the Stone Dragon Empire's imperial palace, Du Xiaoqing's aura fluctuated sharply. Her eyes were filled with anger.
Hearing that her brother had died, Du Xiaoqing's ethereal eyes were filled with tears. She was heartbroken and her delicate body trembled!
"Sister Xiaoman, my brother is the Brave God King of the Stone Dragon Empire. The First Princess of the Stone Dragon Empire had a good relationship with my brother. Why couldn't she obtain the imperial palace's Dragon Qi to prolong my brother's life? If my brother could hold on until now, I could bring him to Sister Xiaoluo. My brother would definitely be fine."
Du Xiaoqing's eyes were blurred. Her heart was filled with sorrow. If her brother still had a chance to live, she could bring him to Sister Xiaoluo and he would definitely be fine.
Du Xiaoman's eyes were also red. She was filled with sorrow and helplessness, "The imperial palace's Dragon Qi is too important to the Stone Dragon Empire. The Stone Dragon Empire couldn't bear to part with it and Shaofu didn't want to force it either. As for the First Princess, Cheng Sheng-nan, a few days ago, she was engaged to the Great Wheel Sect's holy son. Before Shaofu's vitality ran out, he went to the Stone Dragon Empire's imperial capital, Dragon City. Although he didn't say anything, I know that he wanted to see the First Princess one last time. Until now, the First Princess, Cheng Sheng-nan, hasn't come to Stone City …"
"The Stone Dragon Empire is despicable!"
Du Xiaoqing was furious. Her peerless face turned cold.
"The Stone Dragon Empire isn't a good thing."
Little Tiger angrily said. He slammed his hand on the armrest of his chair, shattering it into pieces.
"Where's Brother Qing Chun?" Du Xiaoyao asked.
The Mysterious Flood Dragon King, Ice Python King, Silver-winged Demonic Condor and the others looked at each other. They didn't know about Zhen Qingchun's existence.
"Senior Qing Chun has been in seclusion for a long time. But before he went into seclusion, he said that there's a turning point for the better. He told us to wait a little longer," Du Xiaoman said.
Du Xiaoyao didn't say anything else. Her eyes were filled with doubt. She then smiled and said to Du Xiaoqing and Little Tiger, "Little Qing, Little Tiger, don't worry. I'll talk to you about something later."
"Oh right, Little Qing, the Central Continent Prodigy Competition is about to begin. The World Alliance is also planning to participate. We'll leave tomorrow morning. Do you want to go?"
Du Xiaoman asked. She knew Du Xiaoqing's strength. If Du Xiaoqing went, she would definitely be able to make a name for herself in the Sealed Ancient Land.
Du Xiaoman, Du Xiaoqing, Little Tiger and Du Xiaoyao roughly explained the situation of the Prodigy Competition.
The World Alliance was also planning to send their younger generation to the Prodigy Competition. They had to leave tomorrow morning. Otherwise, they wouldn't be able to make it in time.
Du Xiaoman, Du Yunlong, Du Gui and Du Hao from the Du Family, and the strongest of the younger generation would also be going to the Prodigy Competition.
Even the Silver-winged Demonic Condor would be going. Among the demonic beasts, the Silver-winged Demonic Condor was definitely one of the younger generation.
"Since Big Brother isn't here, I'll go to such a grand event."
Du Xiaoqing nodded. She knew that if Big Brother was here, he would definitely participate in such a grand event.
Du Xiaoqing then said to Du Xiaoman, "Sister Xiaoman, you guys go first. I still have some things to do. I'll come back later."
The next morning, the entire Stone City was gently shrouded in a thin mist. There were birds chirping in the forest, flying back and forth in the sky above the Stone City.
"Roar …"
A black tiger flapped its wings and soared into the sky.
"Little Qing, why are you going to the Stone Dragon Empire's Imperial Capital?"
Du Xiaoyao asked Little Qing on Little Tiger's back.
"I'm going to avenge Big Brother. The Stone Dragon Empire is too despicable!"
Du Xiaoqing's eyes were cold. She was furious that the Stone Dragon Empire didn't replenish her brother's life force.
"That guy isn't dead. I'm sure he's still alive."
Du Xiaoyao said to Du Xiaoqing and Little Tiger, "I can sense him. He's still alive and well. I specially checked last night and his corpse wasn't in the tomb."
Only the heavens knew that when Du Xiaoyao went to investigate last night, in front of the Grass of Immortality and Dark Insight Grass, he almost couldn't help but swallow them. If he wasn't afraid that Du Shaofu would come back to settle the score with him, he definitely wouldn't be able to hold back.
"You said Big Brother isn't dead? Big Brother is still alive?"
Du Xiaoqing's gaze stared intently at Du Xiaoyao. Her gaze, which was still cold just now, immediately became pleasantly surprised.
"Of course he's alive. How could he die so easily?"
Du Xiaoyao rolled her eyes and said, "But the people of the Du Family don't know. He must have encountered something. I'm afraid he's just pretending to be dead. He doesn't want to implicate the Du Family. Brother Qingchun, that guy, definitely knows the situation."
"It's good that he's not dead. Big Brother is still alive."
Du Xiaoqing was ecstatic. She was so happy that she almost danced. Her smile was like an epiphyllum. "Roar …"
Little Tiger roared happily and flapped its wings.
Du Xiaoyao frowned, "But the Stone Dragon Empire has gone too far. If you want to avenge that guy, then go."
… … …
In the misty space, the space fluctuated and dense mist filled the air.
Du Shaofu sat cross-legged and immersed himself in comprehending the mysterious style. He needed time to comprehend all kinds of profound meanings.
In the vast mountain range, the mountain peaks soared to the sky.
The mist filled the air and the spiritual energy was oppressive. It was like a fairyland.
The palace on the mountain peak was surrounded by spiritual birds and exotic flowers.
In front of the palace, a twenty-one or twenty-two year old young man in a red robe slightly raised his head and looked at the sky. There seemed to be a soul in his eyes that no one dared to look at.
His red robe was embroidered with many exquisite patterns that seemed to blend perfectly with him. His tall and slender body was perfectly outlined.
"Holy Son, we will depart for the Prodigy Competition tomorrow. Is there anything else you need?" An old man came forward and asked the young man respectfully.
"There is a great opportunity in the sealed ancient land. I will obtain it. However, the benefits of the Stone Dragon Empire are also extremely important to me. They are not inferior to the benefits of the Divine Lightning."
As the young man spoke, faint golden hair flowed behind his head. His entire body seemed to be enveloped by light. His voice was light, causing those who heard it to feel a surge of warmth entering their hearts, causing their minds to ripple.
He was the Holy Son of the Great Lun Sect, Dongli Chihuang. He was a reincarnated expert of the Great Lun Sect. He had an unimaginable position in the sect.
"Holy Son, do you have any plans?" The old man raised his head and asked.
"I don't want Shengnan to know about this. Everything must be done flawlessly. We can't even let the Great Lun Sect appear." Dongli Chihuang said.
"Then what should we do? The treasure of the Stone Dragon Empire must be obtained by the Holy Son." The old man was puzzled.
"The Stone Dragon Empire is nothing to worry about. However, I don't want Shengnan to know about it."
Dongli Chihuang's eyes glowed and he said indifferently: "I feel that the Barren Country is an opportunity. The Barren Country's strength should be above the Stone Dragon Empire. It will be enough if the Barren Country starts a war with the Stone Dragon Empire."
The old man's eyes flickered and he said: "The Barren Country has the Ancient Heaven Sect behind it. I'm afraid it will be difficult for us to take action."
