Above the dragon kind's base, Ling Xian's expression was calm and collected.
Looking at his calm demeanor, no one would suspect that he was lying.
"Haha, good!" The Dragon King laughed out loud, finding it hard to conceal his joy.
The other dragons were so excited they couldn't control themselves.
Though the ancestor was not an immortal king, he wasn't far from it. To the dragon kind, he was a God!
The treasures he left behind would definitely shock the world. Even the dragon kind would go crazy over them!
"Heaven has eyes, we finally got news of the Ancestral Dragon's treasures."
"Haha, this is great. If we get our hands on the Ancestral Dragon's treasures, the dragon kind's capabilities will increase greatly!"
"When that happens, the dragon kind will be the strongest force on the Yao Planet. Even the real phoenixes cannot compare to us!"
The dragons all chimed in. Some were passionate, some were excited.
"Dragon King, I have a favor to ask."
Ling Xian looked at the Dragon King in a serious manner, "I hope you can lend me the Dragon Key."
Hearing this, the Dragon King frowned and erased his smile.
Instantly, a heavy amount of pressure descended. Even the dragons of the ninth level were shuddering.
"Young man, do you know what the Dragon Key means?" The Dragon King spoke softly. Like a God who sat above all nine levels of heaven, he peered down at everyone and looked down on everyone.
"It means I can open the Ancestral Dragon's treasures." Ling Xian's expression was calm.
He had faced pressure stronger than this before. Of course he wasn't afraid.
"Since you know, why are you asking?" The Dragon King's eyes flashed with admiration. However, he didn't smile nor did he let go of the pressure.
"Because of her."
Ling Xian pointed at the Thief of the World, "The reason why she snuck into the dragon kind's restricted area was because someone threatened her with a curse and forced her to steal the Dragon Key."
"Oh?" The Dragon King frowned and glared at the Thief of the World.
Instantly, the Thief of the World felt like she was struck by lightning. She felt like she was being seen through.
Luckily, the Dragon King merely glanced at her and retracted his gaze.
"She is indeed cursed. With her vitality, she can at most last 10 days."
"Dare I ask, can you lift this curse?" Ling Xian's expression was serious. If the Dragon King could lift the curse, then there was no need for him to ask for the key.
"Curses are the most troublesome. Only a specific method can remove them." The Dragon King shook his head, implying that he was unable to remove it.
"I knew it." Ling Xian softly sighed, not surprised.
Curses were the most troublesome existences in the world. Even a supreme Perfected Immortal could not remove them with brute force.
Ling Xian said in a low voice, "Since the Dragon King cannot solve it, then please lend me the key."
"Your reason is not enough," the Dragon King said lightly.
"That person is only a level-eight cultivator. The Dragon King can easily send a level-nine cultivator to suppress him."
"At that time, the True Dragon Key will return to its rightful owner."
Ling Xian looked at the Dragon King in a serious manner, "If you are worried, I am willing to swear to the heavens. Or, you can place inhibition spells on me."
"Interesting."
The Dragon King stared at Ling Xian, "You are not afraid that I will use this opportunity to imprison you and make you my slave forever?"
"I trust the Dragon King." Ling Xian's gaze was deep. Not only did he trust the Dragon King, he trusted Long Wu Shuang as well.
"Just based on what you said, I'll agree to it." The Dragon King smiled, a hint of admiration flashing in his deep eyes.
"The True Dragon Key is an important matter. Please reconsider!" An elder in black's expression changed and he quickly tried to persuade.
The other dragons all chimed in as well.
"There is no need to say more. If I don't lend you the key, this young man will not tell me where the Ancestral Dragon's Treasure is." The Dragon King grinned. He would not make a decision that would harm the dragon kind just because he admired Ling Xian.
The reason why he agreed was because Ling Xian knew the location of the Ancestral Dragon's Treasure.
"I …" The elder in black hesitated. He wanted to say that the Dragon King could capture Ling Xian and slowly interrogate him. But after seeing the admiration in the Dragon King's eyes, he couldn't bring himself to say it.
The other dragons fell into silence and didn't speak anymore.
"Dragon King, I promise you that you will not regret the decision you made today." Ling Xian's expression was serious and his voice was powerful.
"You trust me. Naturally, I trust you." The Dragon King grinned. He flapped around his sleeve and the restricted area began to shine.
Then, an item broke through the air and landed in his hand.
This item was the size of a palm. It was a golden dragon with nine claws. Though it had no heavenly energy, it was ancient and extraordinary.
"So this is the True Dragon Key …" Ling Xian squinted his eyes and felt the energy from it. It was stronger than a complete weapon.
"That's right." The Dragon King nodded with a smile. He tossed the key to Ling Xian like it was trash.
This made the dragon kind's eyelids jump and they bitterly smiled.
That was the treasure of the dragon kind. In the entire world, only the Dragon King could be so casual about it.
"Thank you, Dragon King."
Ling Xian accepted the key and passed it to the Thief of the World, "Take this and find that person. After the curse is lifted, give it to him."
"I understand." The Thief of the World nodded and carefully took the key.
"The Dragon King and I will follow behind you. As soon as he lifts the curse, we will make our move." Ling Xian grinned and shifted his gaze, "Dragon King, please."
"How do you know I will go myself and not send someone else?" The Dragon King asked with a smile.
"Would the Dragon King rest assured if I gave it to someone else?" Ling Xian grinned. Though the Dragon King gave him the key, it didn't mean he didn't care about it.
This treasure surpassed all weapons and was the only key to the Ancestral Dragon's treasure. Who wouldn't care about it?
"Haha, let's go." The Dragon King laughed, "I really want to see who has the guts to try and steal the treasure of the dragon kind."
Hearing this, Ling Xian looked at the Thief of the World, "Lead the way."
"Follow me." In a flash, the Thief of the World moved forward.
Ling Xian and the Dragon King followed.
At this, all the dragons left one by one and didn't follow.
The Dragon King was a powerhouse in the human world. Even in the entire planet, he was one of the top powerhouses. Since he was going, there was no need for other dragons.
….
The Sun had just risen, shedding down faint golden light that warmed the earth and warmed everything.
Inside the bamboo forest, the Thief of the World stood there calmly. She was a stunning beauty.
She stared into the bamboo forest and said softly, "I have the key. Show yourself."
After she spoke, there was no response. It was as if she was the only person in the forest.
"Since you don't want it, then I will leave." The Thief of the World said softly and was about to leave.
"What's the rush?"
A cold voice arose from the bamboo forest. Then, an elder in black appeared before the Thief of the World. His hair was white and his face was pale.
"I don't have many days left to live. Of course I am in a rush to find a way to save my life."
The Thief of the World's eyes were full of hatred and her hands tightened into fists. However, she forced herself to calm down in case she messed up Ling Xian's plan.
"There's no need. If I can plant a curse, then I can lift it."
The old man in black smiled playfully and said, "Give me the True Dragon Key."
Hearing this, the Thief of the World called out and the key appeared.
The elder's eyes brightened and his breathing hastened.
