Infinite Comprehension by Taking In Disciples: Martial Uncle, Please Ascend!-Chapter 467 - 354 Dragon Clan Ancestral Ground_2

The last sentence, Ao Wuzhan was speaking to Li Cheng.

Li Cheng felt that this was nothing more than Ao Wuzhan making an excuse for the Dragon Clan; the real reason for not participating in the battle was certainly not this.

But since the matter had passed, Li Cheng didn't want to delve further and just listened quietly.

Ao Wuzhan continued, "There is a Formation covering the ancestral land, which even the Divine Emperor cannot forcefully break through. We have been unable to rescue our father the Dragon Emperor or know the specific situation inside."

"But the ancestral land is always a ticking time bomb; without resolving the issue, the Divine Emperor of the Dragon Clan cannot leave Dragon Island and must be ready to deal with any major disaster that might arise."

Li Cheng glanced at Ao Wuzhan. Was this the reason the Monster Race didn't participate in the battle?

The Dragon Emperor nodded, "Your Highness is mentioning this now, is it because you want to ask Brother Li Cheng for help breaking the Formation and then go in to rescue the Dragon Emperor and investigate the ancestral land?"

Ao Wuzhan, Wushuang, and the Dragon Emperor all looked towards Li Cheng at the same time.

Li Cheng raised an eyebrow, "Your ancestral land; wouldn't it be inappropriate for me to set foot there?"

"The ancestral land is also a treasure ground. As long as Brother Li Cheng can help, you can take any treasure within," said Ao Wuzhan with a smile.

The Dragon Emperor chuckled, "You underestimate Li Cheng. He is not a person blinded by greed. He offers help entirely based on the friendship we share."

Li Cheng looked at the Dragon Emperor speechlessly; what a hat to be fitted with…

It would be good to go and see. The ancestral land of the Dragon Clan, the burial ground of countless Divine Emperors; how could one not wish to see such a place?

Thinking this, Li Cheng said, "A Formation that even a Divine Emperor cannot break, I might not be able to either, but I will give it a try!"

Hearing this, Ao Wuzhan and Wushuang were both overjoyed!

"No time like the present, Brother Li, shall we go now?" Wushuang said.

Li Cheng nodded, "I'm fine with that; I've been idle anyway."

Ao Wuzhan clasped his fists and led the way, flying towards the center of Dragon Island.

"The Dragon Emperor's blood lineage is third in ancient and modern times, and the power of the bloodline will undoubtedly suppress those calamities in the ancestral land. We will need the Dragon Emperor to take part when the time comes!" Ao Wuzhan said while they were on their way.

The Dragon Emperor nodded, "As a member of the Dragon Clan, I will naturally do my utmost."

"Brother Li, are you the son of the Confucius Ancestor? When you were with Blunt Empty, were you out for experience?" the Dragon Emperor then asked.

"You could say that; it's a long story. But I am more curious, Uncle Master, didn't the Dragon Clan throw you into the Refining Dragon Prison and just leave it at that?" Li Cheng countered.

These words made Ao Wuzhan's expression stiffen. Was this guy trying to sow discord?

Thinking this, Ao Wuzhan quickly took the initiative to say, "The Dragon Emperor's entry into the Refining Dragon Prison was entirely a case of Ninth Brother's personal vendetta. After this matter is settled, I will surely find him and suppress him for tens of millions of years!"

The Dragon Emperor shook his head with a smile, "I didn't suffer any loss, and instead, it turned into a blessing in disguise. Let's leave it at that!"

He is now the emperor of the Dragon Clan, with a status and position unparalleled by anyone, and with a cultivation at the Divine Emperor Realm, it would be undignified to hold a grudge against a mere prince.

Yet, Ao Wuzhan shook his head, "One should address each issue on its own merits. I have heard about the past events. The Dragon Emperor went to the Land Puppet Mansion to resist the Evil Demon, which was the right thing to do, yet he was thrown into Refining Dragon Prison.

This is something the Ninth Brother must take responsibility for, and I won't let it go without suppressing him for tens of millions of years!"

Li Cheng teased with a smile, flipping his hand, a Space bubble appeared in front of Ao Wuzhan, "Ninth Brother is inside this!"

Ao Wuzhan took the Space bubble and coughed dryly before saying, "Such skills from Divine Venerable Li, with such mastery over Space, the Space Law must be Complete, right?"

Li Cheng smiled without a word.

Ao Wuzhan coughed dryly again and opened the Space bubble, immediately revealing the more than one hundred Divine Venerables and the Ninth Brother before the four of them.

The Dragon Emperor looked at Li Cheng with some surprise. Indeed, remarkable skills; even back when Li Cheng was at the early stage of the Divine King Realm, he was invincible against the Ninth Brother who was at the Complete stage of the Divine Emperor Realm. Now, he easily suppressed so many Divine Venerables.

"Greetings, Elder Brother!"

Upon seeing Ao Wuzhan, the Ninth Brother bowed in a panic, then his face lit up with joy and he quickly said, "Elder Brother, this person of the Human Tribe slaughtered a Dragon King under me, and dared to suppress me and everyone for decades, please Elder Brother seek justice for us!"

The killing of a Divine Dragon was a matter of great significance. Even as the son of Confucius Ancestor, he was likely doomed.

For a moment, the eyes of the more than one hundred Divine Venerables were filled with mockery as they looked at Li Cheng, as if to say, you're surely doomed!

The First Son, Ao Wuzhan, was a being at the Complete stage of the Divine Emperor's Realm, known alongside the First Elder as the pillar of the Dragon Clan.

If he made a move, Li Cheng would have no chance of resisting.

The Ninth Prince couldn't help but give Li Cheng a glance, his eyes seemed to look upon a dead man!

But the next moment, the Ninth Prince and the group of Divine Venerables froze in astonishment!

All was silent until Ao Wuzhan coldly huffed and said, "Little Nine, go to the Lock Dragon Pillar yourself; you may leave after a full ten million years have passed."

The Ninth Prince's expression turned rigid, disbelieving as he looked at Ao Wuzhan, doubting his own ears, "To remain on the Lock Dragon Pillar for ten million years? Me?"

"Your Highness, you might have heard wrong, this man from the Human Tribe killed a Dragon King and has oppressed us for decades!" a Divine Venerable hurriedly interjected.

Ao Wuzhan waved his hand dismissively, "This man, Li Cheng, is a great benefactor of our Dragon Clan. Not to mention him killing a Dragon King, even if he exterminated all of you, it would be nothing but your own doing!"

As the First Prince, he shouldn't have said such things, since words like that could chill everyone's hearts.

But compared to soothing Li Cheng's heart, what did the chilling of the Divine Venerables' hearts amount to?

These words left everyone dumbfounded, a man from the Human Tribe turned out to be a great benefactor of the Dragon Clan?

And for the sake of a single human, was the death of so many of them a thing unworthy of care?

This was hard for everyone to accept indeed!

The Ninth Prince still doubted his own ears, but looking at everyone else's expressions confirmed that he hadn't misheard!

For a moment, rage surged within the Ninth Prince as he said, "Elder brother, I object! For the sake of a man from the Human Tribe, you actually disregard us to such an extent; you couldn't possibly want to become the Human Tribe's lapdog, could you?"

Ao Wuzhan's eyes slightly narrowed, "Questioning my decision? Very well, twenty million years on the Lock Dragon Pillar!"

The Ninth Prince quickly suppressed his anger, looking at Ao Wuzhan with shock, suddenly wondering if his elder brother knew about his deed of killing the Dragon King? Was that why he was being punished like this?

Realizing this, the Ninth Prince quickly knelt down, pleading, "Elder brother, I know my mistake! Please forgive me!"

"Hmph! Where did you go wrong?" Ao Wuzhan coldly retorted.

The Ninth Prince hastily wept, "I shouldn't have framed Li Cheng for the killing of my subordinate Dragon King, please show mercy, elder brother!"

Hmm?

Everyone turned their attention to the Ninth Prince, framed?

So, it wasn't Li Cheng who killed the Dragon King, but the Ninth Prince himself?

Ao Wuzhan frowned and after a few seconds of silence, he sighed, "What is the crime for harming one's own kind?"

The Ninth Prince opened his mouth with difficulty and said, "Beheading Dragon Platform..."

"You know that for harming one's own kind, one must be taken to the Beheading Dragon Platform?" Ao Wuzhan said through gritted teeth, frustrated.

"I daren't do it again, please, elder brother, I beg you..." the Ninth Prince was sobbing heavily, kneeling and moving forward to cling onto Ao Wuzhan's legs.

Ao Wuzhan pushed him away, speaking indifferently, "Take him away. The Elder Group will decide upon their return; I don't have the right to send a clansman to the Beheading Dragon Platform."

Having said that, without looking back, Ao Wuzhan continued flying towards the ancestral grounds with Li Cheng and the others.

"Elder brother, about Ninth Brother..."

"He got what he deserved. Whatever the Elder Group decides, I will not plead for that scoundrel." Ao Wuzhan interrupted Wushuang's words.

After speaking, Ao Wuzhan turned to Li Cheng and fist-saluted, sighing, "My apologies for the spectacle, Brother Li Cheng. I hope you won't take that scoundrel to heart."

Li Cheng shrugged, "I never did."

Having just entered the Divine Venerable Realm, he always thought the Ninth Prince was nothing but a buffoon, and now that he was at the Complete stage of the Divine Venerable Realm, half a step into the Divine Emperor's Realm, he was even less inclined to take the antics of a buffoon to heart.

He had taken out the space bubble now only to return those Divine Venerables to the Dragon Clan—it was a favor to Uncle Master Dragon Emperor, and he certainly couldn't keep them oppressed forever.

He just hadn't expected the Ninth Prince to dig his own grave, exposing his act of killing the Dragon King, which otherwise definitely wouldn't have led to being handed over to the Elder Group for judgment. ƒreewebɳovel.com

This time, although death might be escaped, punishment was inevitable, and he had no intention of getting involved.

"We have arrived! Just ahead lies our ancestral grounds!"

At this moment, Ao Wuzhan declared.

Li Cheng focused his gaze ahead, the burial ground of the Divine Dragon Emperors of the Dragon Clan, wondering how many had been interred within.
