Chapter 1126: Fermenting

Translator: 549690339

The efficiency of the Flood Dragon Imperial Dynasty was still very high. The destroyed Taiyi Palace was mostly rebuilt after only a day. Because of Du Yunji’s arrogance, the festive atmosphere of the Flood Dragon Emperor lighting up the ninth wisp of divine flame was diluted by a lot.

After leaving Taiyi Palace yesterday, Flood Dragon Emperor had gone back to the backroom for closed-door cultivation to stabilize his divine flame. Two days later, Flood Dragon Emperor came out of the backroom and returned to Taiyi Palace. Looking at Taiyi Palace, which had been repaired completely, Flood Dragon Emperor still felt a bit depressed and confused.

As the Flood Dragon Emperor, he had already ignited nine wisps of divine flames. Becoming a god was only a matter of a thought. In the entire Sinkhole Region, everyone had to give him face, yet he actually had to suffer the wrath of that birdman, Du Yunji, to let him fly to the Flood Dragon Imperial Court, destroy Taiyi Hall, and even extort him for Sinkhole Godly metal…

Sitting on the throne, Flood Dragon Emperor looked at the empty palace as he became angrier. The dragon head armrest made of star gold on the throne had changed shape unconsciously under his hands. Thinking of what happened in Taiyi Palace that day, Flood Dragon Emperor calmed himself down and waved his hand to summon a trusted attendant.

“Did the Dragon Rearing Cicada leave Ruins Capital City?”The Flood Dragon Emperor asked.

” Your Majesty, Dragon Rearing Cicada hasn’t left Ruin Capital City. It’s staying in Mingyuan Building. Yesterday and today, it visited two auction houses in the city, wanting to buy rare Realm Beads and divine blood fire lotuses.”

The Flood Dragon Emperor shook his head slightly.” That Dragon Rearing Cicada is also an outstanding person. His cultivation is unfathomable, and even 1 can’t see through him. Du Yunji is waiting for him outside. It’s normal for him to seek resources to increase his strength in the next few days. Rare Realm Pearls are still fine, but those divine blood fire lotuses are heaven and earth treasures that grow on divine blood. One divine blood fire lotus can allow a Supreme God Realm expert to ignite a divine flame. I’ve only seen two divine blood fire lotuses in all my years in the Sinkhole Domain. How could the auction house have such a thing!”

“Your Majesty is right. The auction house naturally doesn’t have one. Even Dragon Rearing Cicada couldn’t buy one of the rare Realm Pearls.”

“Oh, why?”

“Du Yunji’s notoriety is out there. Now, the entire Ruins Capital City knows that Du Yunji wants to kill Dragon Rearing Cicada. The auction house is afraid that selling the rare Realm Pearl to Dragon Rearing Cicada at this time will cause trouble for themselves.”

The Flood Dragon Emperor’s expression darkened when he heard the name ‘Du Yunji’. He snorted through his nostrils and said in a rough tone,” Where is Du Yunji now?”

The personal attendant looked at the Flood Dragon Emperor carefully before saying,” Du Yunji is outside the Ruins Capital. He even used a secret technique to set up a few barriers outside the Ruins Capital, surrounding the entrance and exit of the Ruins Capital. Everyone who leaves the Ruins Capital has to pass through his barriers to be checked by him…”

The Flood Dragon Emperor’s expression changed slightly when he heard this. He closed his eyes and used a secret technique to check. As expected, he saw that outside the gates outside the city, a few underwater secret technique barriers had surrounded the entrance and exit of the city. Those barriers were like gates that blocked the entrance and exit of the city.

“Preposterous…” The Flood Dragon Emperor was so angry that his beard was standing on end. He shouted angrily, and his eyes were red. Du Yunji’s actions were equivalent to installing another gate outside his house. This Ruins Capital City was originally the territory of the flood dragon people, but now, everyone who entered and exited the Ruins Capital City had to look at Du Yunji’s face and be checked by him. This was simply pushing the flood dragon people’s faces to the ground. It was simply bullying. On the surface, Du Yunji was preventing the Dragon Rearing Cicada from escaping the Ruins Capital. He was also forcing the flood dragon man to chase the Dragon Rearing Cicada out. In reality, this Du Yunji was still demonstrating his power to him, forcing him to take out the Origin Deity Metal.

The Flood Dragon attendant carefully glanced at the Flood Dragon Emperor, whose face had changed color from anger, and said,” Your Majesty, there’s one more thing.”

“What is it?”

” Just yesterday, the Left Commander of the Imperial Guards and the others saw Du Yunji sealing off the entrance of Ruin Capital City and went to reason with him. They wanted Du Yunji to remove the secret technique seal, but who knew…”

“Didn’t think of what?” The Flood Dragon asked.

“I did not expect that Commander Zuo and the others would be seriously injured by Du Yunji. They are currently recuperating. Du Yunji even said that he would spare Commander Zuo and the others ‘lives on account of His Majesty…”

” Bastard, you’re so arrogant. Do you really think that I’m afraid that you won’t succeed? If you force me, I’ll bring your father to the Divine Realm.” No matter how good-tempered Flood Dragon Emperor was, he was infuriated at this moment. Panting heavily like an old water buffalo, he slapped down and turned the star golden dragon head on the throne into molten iron, causing the entire palace to shake.

However, there was still a look of hesitation on the attendant’s face. The Flood Dragon Emperor looked at him and immediately asked,” Is there anything else?”

“This… This… There’s one more thing. It’s just a rumor. I don’t know if I should say it?”

“What rumors?”

“Is it related to the attack on the Crown Prince?”

Upon hearing this, the Flood Dragon Emperor’s expression changed again. It was as if there were sword lights gushing out of his eyes. His voice became stern.” Tell me, what rumors?””

“I have also heard about this…” The attendant’s expression was also a little afraid and hesitant.” Ruins Capital City…” Some people said that before the Crown Prince was attacked, someone saw Du Yunji meeting with the culprit who attacked the Crown Prince in the Soul-Locking Ravine outside the Ruins Capital City…”

The Soul-Locking Ravine was located in a deep trench in the Heidi Mountains, more than 16,000 miles northwest of the Ruin Capital. It was where the flood dragon people first discovered the Ruins of End Godly metal. However, the Ruins of End Godly metal in the Soul-Locking Ravine had long been mined out. Only some precious medicinal herbs and supreme-grade sea pearls were occasionally discovered. Usually, no one would go there. Only pearl diggers would occasionally go there to take a look.

What sort of person was the Flood Dragon Emperor? When he heard this, he instantly thought of many things. If this rumor was true, it was impossible for Du Yunji and the person who killed his son to meet by chance in a place like the Soul Locking Ravine. Then, Du Yunji sent over the heads of the two murderers who killed his son, as well as the head of the Dragon-Rearing Cicada. When Du Yunji saw the Dragon-Rearing Cicada, he immediately killed it. This meant…

The Flood Dragon Emperor’s expression kept changing. From the initial gloominess, it gradually became extremely terrifying, as if he wanted to eat people. His eyes were red.” Why did such a rumor only spread now? Do you know where this rumor came from?””

“According to my understanding, this rumor was first spread among the pearl hunters in the city. It was reported by our spies in the city. Because Du Yunji flew around the city that day and made a big commotion, his identity was recognized!”

The Flood Dragon Emperor closed his eyes. His hands were trembling slightly. The entire hall was silent. Two rainbow-colored pearls rolled down from his eyes again. At this moment, the sound of the two rainbow-colored pearls rolling down the steps of the hall was exceptionally clear, echoing throughout the entire hall.

After about two minutes, the Flood Dragon Emperor opened his eyes again. His eyes were like a pool of stagnant water, without any ripples. His face was no longer excited, but turned cold.” That rumor was spread by someone who wanted to harm the Flood Dragon Tribe. I ordered the spies not to let such rumors spread any further. If there are still people spreading rumors in the Ruins Capital, they can be arrested and dealt with on the spot!”

“Yes, sir! Is there anything else, Your Majesty?”

“Oh right, where is that Dragon Cicada now?”

“Young Master Chan, you’re a big shot, please spare me. This is a small shop, I’m just a small business, 1 can earn a little money to accumulate some cultivation resources, no one can afford to offend me. 1 don’t have any rare Realm Pearls here, but the Wind Lightning Realm Pearl you heard about before has already been sold to someone else.”Inside Treasure Gathering Zhai, located in an alley on the east side of Ruin Capital, the shopkeeper cupped his hands towards Xia Ping ‘an with a bitter expression.

“Since you sold the Realm Pearl, then forget it!”Xia Ping ‘an said to the shopkeeper in a pleasant tone, then turned around and walked out of the store. When he stepped out of the store, he could hear the shopkeeper’s relieved breathing.

Xia Pingan walked out of the small alley and arrived at the main street outside. A carriage pulled by two dragon horses stopped in front of him. The curtain of the carriage was lifted, and a slightly old and unfamiliar face appeared in front of Xia Pingan. He looked at Xia Pingan with a burning gaze and said,” 1 heard that Young Master Chan is looking for rare Realm Pearls everywhere. I have something here that can help Young Master Chan.. Would Young Master Chan please get on the carriage?””
