Boom~

There was this s.p.a.ce where golden flames licked every inch, with heat turned so high youd bake, and the constant crackling sounded as if the earth itself was cooked.

Bolts of purple lightning flashed all around, briefly interrupted by the appearance of a hundred-meter large bird. It released violent flashes at the dangerous golden flames, erasing them in a terrifying explosion.

But as the golden flames around vanished, what stood in their place was a three-hundred-meter dragon, towering like a mountain with its huge eye showing pride.

Whoosh~

The purple bird landed, then it turned into a seven-year-old girl, looking curiously at the large creature, Dragon Ancestor, is todays training over? That was fast!

Ha-ha-ha, it is, since we have guests. The dragons rumbling laughter sounded, then one sharp talon swept the air.

The air ripped and showed a bright sun on the other side and a mild wind rustling the trees around a creek, but also a very familiar man.

He entered into this s.p.a.ce and smiled, Dragon Ancestor sure is amazing. I just came and you already noticed.

Father!

The adorable girl lit up and jumped in the mans arms joyfully.

The man staggered, but hugged the girl back with laughter, Qiaoer, its been so long. I see you had been doing great in here.

Father, did you come for me? Qiaoers eyes sparkled with childish hope.

Zhuo Fan rubbed her head with sorrow, shaking his head, Its not up to me when you can leave. Dragon Ancestor has the last say. He will let you go once he believes you have the strength to hold your own in the big world outside.

Dragon Ancestor, can I go with father? Ive learned all youve taught me Qiaoer swished her head around to the huge dragon with a puppy look.

These two years away from Zhuo Fan had been like ages to her and she had missed her father dearly.

Dragon ancestor stared hard at Zhuo Fan instead, Kid, it cant be you came all this way just to catch up. What happened?

Dragon Ancestor is amazing yet again. I just cant hide anything from your discerning eye.

Zhuo Fan showed a trace of sorrow, then he flicked his hand and young Sanzis feeble body appeared.

Qiaoer saw Gu Santong so weary and cried, What happened to brother?

Qilin?

Dragon ancestor saw young Sanzi for the first time, but one look was enough to recognize his origins, Tell me what happened.

Zhuo Fan sighed and nodded with a heavy look as he retold the events he went through the last couple of years, finis.h.i.+ng with, I didnt know the sacred weapons had such power over sacred beasts. Its my mistake. Now that I know where Heaven Sealing Sea Ao is, Kunpeng said that with you twos seal on young Sanzis soul and body, it will keep him stable until I find Sea Ao to save him.

Oh, Kunpeng isnt wrong about that. Heaven Sealing Sea Ao can handle this.

Dragon ancestor nodded and his eyes shone. His huge claw shot forth and golden flames fell on young Sanzis body like stars, on his main acupoints.

Dragon ancestor placed the claw over young Sanzi and let the golden flames cover him, letting its power seep into him.

Young Sanzi began to show a golden glow this time, covering him completely and the childs cheeks looked a healthier pink.

Dragon ancestor sighed, The little Qilin will be fine for a while. Take him to Sea Ao, but you need to exercise extreme caution around that guy. He hates humans with a pa.s.sion. When you do finally meet him, you wont even get the chance to speak before the old b.a.s.t.a.r.d would splatter you. The young Qilin will be left for dead and youll become a b.l.o.o.d.y stain under his palm.

Hes still wild and cant speak?

No, he just doesnt trust human words.

Dragon ancestor sighed, He lost one of his eyes to a human and healing it proved difficult. This is why he sees humans as bitter enemies, making him go mad!

Zhuo Fans eyes shook, A human took his eye? Who

Sword Sovereign!

Dragon ancestor let out a long sigh, You must be fast to explain your purpose, or maybe just throw little Qilin over without even talking. I dont think youll even have time to get even one word out before you become his meal.

Zhuo Fan was stunned and gave a hard nod with a grim look.

Sacred beasts were the strongest in this world, needing but an instant to kill anyone even if sealed in the mortal domain. With Sea Ao killing any human he saw, talking would be pointless. It dawned on him just how risky his search had now become.

Qiaoer picked up on the dangers around this task and said, Dragon Ancestor, then I can just go with father and help him!

Dont argue. Its too dangerous this time. Anything could happen going against a crazed sacred beast. Young Sanzi is bad enough, I cant have you hurt as well. Zhuo Fan refused on the spot.

Dragon ancestor actually took Qiaoers side, This time she can go, maybe she can really help you in this. She is a fledgling sacred beast and that old Sea Ao might give you some time on account of her, enough to state your purpose. And Qiaoer is strong enough to help you out as well, while also turning this trip into a learning experience for her.

Qiaoer skipped with glee and Zhuo Fan gave a weak nod after a long pause.

He knew dragon ancestor had put a lot of work in Qiaoer and was not just about to give her up. What was the point of the last two years of training anyway?

Dragon ancestor must be convinced she could go out. And if he thought so, then Zhuo Fan had no reason to doubt the old dragons judgment.

Zhuo Fan reached out his hand, his tone as earnest as he knew how, Senior Dragon Ancestor, this is a serious matter. Could you spare some a.s.sistance for this n.o.ble cause?

Whats with you?

Could you possibly give me, say, ten more Dragon Breath Pills?

Blinking his big purdy eyes, Zhuo Fan begged without qualms, Facing that lunatic, Ill need further a.s.sistance. Facing a sacred beast without Dragon Ancestors much needed support will wring my little life dry from these feeble bones. I ask Dragon Ancestor to think of the end goal and give me all the help you can. If not ten, five will do just as fine

Dragon ancestors big eye twitched, giving a wry smile, Kid, funny you should mention the end goal, when you used one of my Dragon Breath Pill on that n.o.body sect in the mortal domain. Did you forget how each of them is an all-out attack from me? With me stuck in the mortal domain and unable to recover my energy, you think I can pop out Dragon Breath Pills like candy? Those three were the limit of my reserves. Yet you, rotten good-for-nothing actually

Oh fine, I get it

Zhuo Fan gave a dismissive wave and grinned, I know youre stuck here, but think of young Sanzis future. Is senior that cold to the childs fate? And even if you are, you should at least value him for being on the sacred beast team in the final battle. Hes clearly a valuable a.s.set. Are you just going to let him pa.s.s on? Humph, Kunpeng is so treacherous, aware of the danger Sea Ao posed but never mentioned it. Yet even so, he still had a 9th level spiritual beast come with me to help on this journey. While you go on and on about how he sold you guys out, but wont that make you worse than him since you arent giving one measly help

Zhuo Fan gave him a scornful look, making the dragon ancestor snap at him in annoyance, You say Im worse than him? Humph, so he got the Allbeast Mountain Range yet only sent some 9th level spiritual beast? In here, Im the only one left or I wouldve had an army go with you!

Bragging much? Actions speak louder than words. Zhuo Fan taunted.

Groaning inside, dragon ancestor gnashed his fangs and spewed out ten golden b.a.l.l.s the size of a hand.

He then started wheezing, Kid, dont ever say I didnt help you. These small Dragon Breath Pills are all thats left and youll have to make do. They cant handle the old monster, but you can still use them to clear your path. This is all I can do to help, humph!
