Zhen Qingchun glared at Du Shaofu, then fiercely glared at Du Shaofu. In the end, he secretly turned his gaze and said, "Someone is looking for you. I'll take my leave first."
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhen Qingchun's figure had already disappeared.
Du Shaofu was stunned. He felt the flickering gaze in his big brother Zhen Qingchun's eyes. He guessed that something unusual must have happened.
Then, Du Shaofu saw a beautiful figure coming from not far away. Her body was light and tender, and she arrived in front of him in a moment. A faint fragrance assailed his nostrils, and her temperament was antique. It was Murong Youruo.
"Why are you out so late?"
Du Shaofu looked at the woman in front of him. She looked like she had walked out of a painting. Her antique and beautiful face hadn't changed in the slightest over the years, but there was an additional majestic temperament.
This woman was slightly enchanting. Her charm was rich, and she was different from the rest. It was enough to make any man lose his soul.
"I came out for a walk. I didn't expect you to be here."
Murong Youruo raised her head and looked at Du Shaofu. Her eyes were filled with spiritual light, and there were faint ripples. Her eyelids fluttered. After hesitating for a moment, her red lips parted slightly. She said, "Don't you feel that you didn't control your anger today?"
"You're trying to say that I killed too many people today, right?"
Du Shaofu smiled. He knew how intelligent Murong Youruo was. Then, a sharp golden light flashed across his eyes. He said softly, "I just want to tell some people that if they provoke me, they will have to pay the price!"
"Perhaps you're right."
Murong Youruo smiled bitterly. Then, a complicated look flashed across her eyes. She hesitated for a moment, then said, "You're the leader of the World Alliance, the president of the World Society, the hall master of the Heavenly Beast Hall, and the ruler of the Desolate Country. Sometimes, it's more useful to make people fear you than to make people respect you. However, I hope that your original intentions won't change.
"Yes, I will remember."
Du Shaofu nodded at Murong You Ruo.
Murong Youruo raised her eyes slightly and smiled. Then, she whispered to Du Shaofu, "Is there any news about Xingyu recently?"
Du Shaofu thought of that little girl. There had been no news of her all these years. She must have grown up by now.
"After I'm done with the recent matters, I'll think of a way to find out more about Xingyu," Du Shaofu said.
Murong You Ruo half-closed her eyes and looked at the moon in the sky. "That girl should have grown up by now …"
…
At night, the bright moon hung high in the sky. Under the reflection of the stars and the moon, the eaves and tiles of the Golden Dragon Palace, as well as the beasts on the ridges, shone with sparkling light, appearing mysterious and quiet.
From afar, the magnificent Golden-dragon Palace was like a golden island in the moonlight.
"Father, did you ask Third Brother to invite the three Old Kings?"
Cheng Sheng-nan walked into the Golden-dragon Palace. His face was pale as he looked at Emperor Cheng.
Emperor Cheng raised his head and looked at Cheng Sheng-nan. Before he could speak, a voice sounded, "I discussed it with your father."
A figure walked out with the voice. He was wrapped in a faint golden light, and an invisible pressure filled the air.
He looked to be in his eighties. Among his long black hair, there were a few strands of golden hair that were very eye-catching. It was the Emperor of the Stone Dragon Empire, Cheng Fanshi.
"Grandfather, have you finished your training?" Cheng Sheng-nan raised his eyes, but his pale face looked haggard.
"Yes, I've finished my training."
Cheng Fanye's eyes were deep and rippling like the vast ocean. His aura seemed to be much stronger than before. He had finally made a breakthrough during this period of time. However, there was not the slightest hint of joy on his old face.
Looking at Cheng Sheng-nan, Cheng Fanshi said, "Our Cheng Family has reached the most critical moment. I hope the North Vanquishing Prince and the others can stop the Du Family's killer tomorrow."
Cheng Sheng-nan looked at Cheng Fanshi and sighed, "Perhaps we shouldn't invite the three Old Kings at this time. Instead …"
Cheng Sheng-nan looked at her grandfather helplessly and didn't continue. What could she do?
The one in front of her was her grandfather. Could she say that her grandfather should face them? After all, the tens of thousands of lives in Stone City were caused by her grandfather. Du Shaofu's anger also came from Stone City.
Perhaps if her grandfather faced them personally, the Stone Dragon Empire and the Cheng Family would have a chance to survive …
However, Cheng Sheng-nan knew that she couldn't say it. There were some things that she couldn't say.
"If I had known this would happen, I wouldn't have nurtured a tiger!"
Cheng Fanshi's eyes were cold and his old face was solemn. If he hadn't nurtured a tiger back then, the Stone Dragon Empire and the Cheng Family would have fallen to such a state today.
"Sheng-Nan, can you contact the Great Lun Sect and the Divine Light Court as soon as possible?" Cheng Fanshi asked Cheng Sheng-nan.
Cheng Sheng-nan shook her head and said to Cheng Fanshi, "It's useless even if you contact the Great Lun Sect. They won't truly be at odds with the Ancient Heaven Sect for our Stone Dragon Empire. The Divine Light Court is now entangled with the Seven Star Hall. This time, six Venerable experts have been killed. I can't go back and explain."
"The Great Lun Sect, the Divine Light Court, all of them are giants. They talk big, but at the critical moment, even the little bastard of the Du family can't do anything to them." Cheng Fanwen was furious, and his eyes were cold.
"Sheng-Nan, prepare for the worst tomorrow. When the time comes, you have to take your brother and sister to the Divine Light Court or the Great Lun Sect.
The three of you must leave, "Emperor Cheng sighed and said to Cheng Sheng-nan.
Cheng Sheng-nan didn't say anything. She looked at Cheng Fanshi and Emperor Cheng and then walked out of the Golden-dragon Palace.
At night, the Milky Way was resplendent, enveloping the palace and casting its light on the long winding corridor. The fragrance of flowers on both sides of the corridor filled the night sky.
"Sister, you're looking for me?"
A clear and gentle voice was heard and a beautiful figure came gently. Under her slender eyelashes, her big eyes sparkled like black gemstones under the night sky. It was the second princess, Cheng Yan.
Looking at the girl in front of her, whose hair was black and shiny and fell to her slim waist, Cheng Sheng-nan's haggard and pale face squeezed out a smile. She said softly, "Promise me, if the Cheng Family really comes to an end tomorrow, you must take Third Brother and leave in the chaos. You must leave the Cheng Family's bloodline."
"Sister, is it really the end?"
Cheng Yan's clear eyes were dignified but extremely calm at this moment.
"Dragons have reverse scales, and the Stone City is his reverse scale. Grandfather really shouldn't have gone to the Stone City."
Cheng Sheng-nan sighed and looked at the moonlight. Her clear face was somewhat empty.
Cheng Yan didn't say anything and stood quietly. After a while, she looked at her haggard sister and raised her eyelashes. She asked, "Sister, do you regret it? Maybe you shouldn't have made such a choice. Maybe the result today would be different."
"I don't quite understand what you're saying."
Hearing this, Cheng Sheng-nan raised her eyebrows slightly and said softly.
Looking at her sister in front of her, Cheng Yan looked at her quietly and said, "I'm your sister. You can hide it from others, but you can't hide it from me."
Her voice paused for a moment and Cheng Yan continued, "Sister, I'm actually a little angry at you. I'm angry at you for making such a choice. But I also feel sorry for you. I feel sorry for you because you had no other choice. I feel sorry for you being born in the Imperial Family and being the eldest daughter of the Cheng Family."
Hearing Cheng Yan's words, Cheng Sheng-nan's eyes trembled slightly. She raised her hand and stroked her sister's black hair. She gently pursed her lips and smiled, but there was a trace of sadness that couldn't be revealed. She said softly, "Remember, if tomorrow really comes to the end, you must take Third Brother with you."
Cheng Yan looked at Cheng Sheng-nan and asked, "What about you?"
"I …"
Cheng Shengnan's pale face showed a faint smile, still moving. Her bright eyes still had that kind of soul-stirring look, making people look at her ethereal and distant. She said softly, "Second sister, you must remember one thing. It's useless to rely on others. People can only rely on themselves. You must remember!"
With that, Cheng Sheng-nan left …
Cheng Yan stood quietly under the moonlight. After a long time, she murmured, "Although I can only rely on myself, if I can meet someone who can rely on me, I don't want to miss it …"
That night, in Dragon City, everyone was in a state of panic.
The rich and powerful officials, nobles and ministers were all sitting on pins and needles. They were afraid that the Barren Country would start a massacre the next day.
In the Tiger Gorge, the Brave God King and his generals slaughtered tens of millions of soldiers from the Stone Dragon Empire. That kind of slaughter caused blood to flow on the streets of Dragon City. The air was filled with a murderous aura that made people tremble in fear.
Some nobles and ministers wanted to leave the city, only to find that the city had been sealed off.
In Dragon City, many civilians were secretly happy.
The Cheng Family was immoral and made the Old Kings retire. The news had already spread throughout the world and people were talking about it in private.
Many people were unhappy, but in Dragon City, they didn't dare to show it. They could only hide it in their hearts.
The last army of the Cheng Family in Dragon City was even more frightened. Some of the generals and soldiers started to flee in the night.
With the people's hearts unstable, the army was defeated. It was unstoppable.
When the news reached the Golden-dragon Palace, Emperor Cheng's hair turned even whiter.
It was early in the morning, but the first ray of light rose from the horizon in the east.
Whoosh … Whoosh …
In the entire Stone City, countless people's hearts were beating faster as they looked outside Dragon City.
In everyone's eyes, there was a group of about a thousand people walking in the air.
Wherever the thousand people passed, the wind blew and clouds surged. Then, they went straight to the palace.
"That's the Brave God King, the current king of the Barren Country!"
"They went straight to the palace. It seems like they don't plan to attack the city!"
Countless people in Dragon City were shocked. Some started to walk toward the palace, while others didn't dare to get close.
In the vast palace, the morning sun shone down, emitting a peaceful and majestic aura. It shone with a holy light.
Whoosh … Whoosh …
Suddenly, many gates in the palace opened. Countless armored figures rushed out and covered the outside of the palace. There were at least tens of thousands of them.
Whoosh … Whoosh …
At the same time, in the distant sky, over a thousand figures landed in front of the palace square.
They were Du Shaofu, Du Xiaoqing, Du Xiaoyao, Little Tiger, Zhen Qingchun, Phantom, Jiangchen, Gu Qingyang, Medicine King Yi Wuming, Yu Wanli, Sima Muhan, Ye Piaoling, Shui Ruohan, and other experts from the Du family, the World Society, and the Ancient Heaven Sect.
The arrival of these thousand figures caused the space to tremble. The tens of thousands of people outside the palace trembled for no reason. Their legs began to tremble, and the Celestial Chi and blood in their bodies froze.
Du Shaofu stepped into the air and stood in front. When he came to the palace again, he also felt the presence of a suppressive force. It was the palace's dragon aura.
In the vast palace, the palace's dragon aura was dense. It was the emperor's aura, and people couldn't help but be in awe.
The palace's dragon aura gathered the country's providence and dragon veins. This was the heart of the country!
The Stone Dragon Empire had existed for thousands of years, and the palace's dragon aura was extremely dense.
Whoosh … Whoosh …
Suddenly, hundreds of figures appeared in the sky above the palace.
They were the nobles and the last experts of the Cheng Family's direct descendants. Their expressions were cold and murderous.
Cheng Sheng-nan, Cheng Yan, and Cheng Chao were among them.
The person in the lead had a majestic aura. The palace's dragon aura lingered around him. It was the old emperor, Cheng Fanshi.
"Du Shaofu, you were once a king of the Stone Dragon Empire and a descendant of the Du family. The Stone Dragon Empire treated you well. Now, you want to usurp the throne? Is this treacherous?"
Cheng Fanxi looked at Du Shaofu, who was in the air in front of him, and shouted with an ugly expression.
