Chapter 708 -710: Dragon Garden Director

Having obtained the Ancient Lantern Jade, Zhu Ming left the Empress’s Pavilion.

There was still one matter that needed clarification, and that was about the Heaven Dust Dragon of the Cloud Dragon Country.

The Heaven Dust Dragon was supposed to be a Demi-god Dragon worshipped by the Royal Family. Yet, Zhao Yuan had given it to the Sparrow Wolf God without any reservations, aiding tyranny.

“Young Master, what about Empress Zhu?” Li Xinghua asked with confusion.

They had come this time to rescue Empress Zhu.

“Things seem to be a bit complicated, and it seems she herself has no desire to continue living. I can’t quite figure out what is going on for now, but we did get the Ancient Lantern Jade. Empress Zhu seemed to know that Zhao Yuan planned to use the power of the Sparrow Wolf God to crush Zhu Gate, so she hid this Ancient Lantern Jade. However, this Ancient Lantern Jade might have been cursed somehow and cannot be taken out of the Imperial Palace,” Zhu Minglang said.

...

“Let me have a look,” Mi Rong said.

After handing it over to Mi Rong, she scrutinized the Ancient Lantern Jade carefully, and soon she discovered a pattern branded inside it, resembling a crimson jasmine.

“Is there a way to undo it?” Li Xinghua asked.

Shaking her head, Mi Rong replied, “It can’t be undone. This is indeed a kind of mark. It will reflect light off some similar patterned stone, which means that once we take it out of a certain area, it will emit a glow that’s difficult to conceal, and there may even be a resonance. This way, it will soon be discovered by people of the Imperial Palace.”

This was a headache.

They had finally obtained the Ancient Lantern Jade, and the injuries of the Sparrow Wolf God were difficult to heal. To make matters worse, there was this mechanism within the Ancient Lantern Jade.

“If we enter the Cloud Dragon Country, would that count as leaving the range of the Imperial Palace?” Zhu Minglang looked up at the huge clusters of cloud peaks enveloping the Imperial Palace.

“It’s worth a try, and we also need to understand the secrets of the Cloud Dragon Country,” Li Xinghua nodded in agreement.

…

With the Ancient Lantern Jade, one could also be spared from the erosion of the Frost of the Ice Sky.

This piece of Lantern Jade was large enough that even if its life force was whittled down to a fraction by the Frost of the Ice Sky, one could still rapidly recover with the Lantern Jade’s powerful life and soul nourishment.

The four of them headed to the Cloud Dragon Country, which actually had no guards. Only those with the Lantern Jade could enter, and the Royal Family controlled the Lantern Jade…

In the ancient night, the Cloud Dragon Country was dim and pitch-black. Starlight and moonlight shone on the cloud pillars that resembled thick ice and snow, scattering night light that barely allowed one to discern the scenery within the Cloud Dragon Country.

However, not far into the Cloud Dragon Country, Zhu Minglang saw in a huge cloud cluster, many Azure Dragons coiling there, their scales vibrant and colorful as if crowning something.

“Brother Zhu, it’s the Blue Silver Heaven Abyss Dragon, the State-guarding Azure Dragon,” Mi Rong said.

“It looks like they’ve been summoned here by someone, probably preparing for an attack on Zhu Gate at dawn!” Zhu Minglang exclaimed.

With the enemy assembling here, the Blue Silver Heaven Abyss Dragon, the leader of thousands of dragons, was located in that cloud cluster. Its body was faintly visible in the swirling mist. Most other Azure Dragons were either coiled around the Cloud Platform Fruit Trees or sprawled on the cloud peaks, with many lying in the cloud clusters, mostly closing their eyes to rest.

In the nighttime of the Cloud Dragon Country, the dragons were also deep in slumber. As long as they didn’t disturb them too much, it wouldn’t be a big problem.

“Even if we find another exit from this Cloud Abyss secret realm and leave, the Ancient Lantern Jade will shine like a lighthouse. Unless we arrange for the soldiers of Zhu Gate to come and meet us in advance, there’s no way we can leave the Imperial Palace alive,” Mingji said.

“Don’t worry, let’s first look for the Heaven Dust Dragon,” Zhu Minglang said.

“Young Master, there’s someone over there, it seems to be Prince Zhao Chang,” Li Xinghua pointed towards the location of the Blue Silver Heaven Abyss Dragon.

Zhu Minglang looked over and noticed that there was someone beside the huge State-guarding Dragon, who was gently stroking the whiskers of the Blue Silver Heaven Abyss Dragon.

The Blue Silver Heaven Abyss Dragon appeared to be very docile, its eyes closed, as if it was relishing the tranquility.

“Tomorrow will be a fierce battle, but this concerns the dignity of our Royal Family, so you must do everything in your power to help us eradicate the cancer that is Zhu Gate!” Prince Zhao Chang said to the State-guarding Azure Dragon there.

“Prince, you’re still the same as before, walking around Dragon Country so late, you must recognize every Azure Dragon here, right?” a woman dressed as a Dragon Robe Envoy said.

“Of course, I have neither sons nor daughters in my life; they are like my children. Today I just want to spend more time with them,” Zhao Chang said.

“Prince, from the sound of your voice, are you worried about something? But since it’s dealing with Zhu Gate, even if they have grown stronger over the years, they are still far behind the strength of our Royal Family,” the Dragon Robe Envoy woman said.

“We must not underestimate them. Of course, I’m not worried about this matter; it’s just that there are some things I cannot quite make sense of… Sigh, never mind, never mind, I’m getting old and start to think about all kinds of messy things. You go back first, tell the Emperor that I’m already prepared,” Prince Zhao Chang said.

“Alright, Prince, you should also rest early. We’re counting on you to lead us to victory tomorrow.”

“Hmm, I’ll visit the Heaven Dust ancestral dragon and then return,” Zhao Chang waved his hand and said.

“Shall I send a few subordinates to follow you, lest you encounter some fierce Demon Saints?” the Dragon Robe Envoy woman said.

“There’s no need,” Zhao Chang shook his head.

“Better follow you anyway.”

“What, the Emperor doesn’t trust me that much, afraid that I’ll flee from battle?” Zhao Chang frowned, slightly discontented.

“That’s not what I meant,” the Dragon Robe Envoy woman quickly said.

Zhao Chang waved his hand, indicating her to leave, then set off alone towards the depths of the Dragon Country.

In the night, many places in the cloudy mountains were pitch black, especially where the stars were obscured by clouds, making it impossible to see the cloud paths clearly. But Zhao Chang seemed to be so familiar with this place that he didn’t need any visibility; he headed towards the Cloud Platform Mother Tree, which Zhu Minglang had seen before.

“Follow him!” Zhu Minglang immediately called out the Moon Blessing White Dragon, asking everyone to get onto Little White’s back.

Little White was not one of those huge dragons, and having four people on its back was actually a bit cramped. Fortunately, its wings were plenty, and it didn’t struggle to fly.

“This prince seems to be the caretaker of this Dragon Country,” Mi Rong whispered.

“He must know the secrets of the Heaven Dust Dragon. If we can capture him, then during tomorrow’s battle, the Sparrow Wolf God won’t be able to rely on the power of Dragon Country anymore!” Zhu Minglang’s eyes lit up!

This Prince Zhao Chang looked like a martial scholar or warrior, but who would have thought he was someone who had been meticulously taking care of the Cloud Kingdom’s Azure Dragon Tribe for many years, equivalent to the director of the Dragon Garden of the Cloud Kingdom Azure Dragons!
