”Refusing a toast only to drink a forfeit, courting death!”

The Dragon Crown Prince was furious.

He risked offending his fellow sect members to reconcile with Ling Xiao, but surprisingly, Ling Xiao showed him no respect at all.

How could this not make him angry?

In his rage, layers of scales began to form on the Dragon Crown Prince’s body.

They were Dragon Scales, glimmering Dragon Scales!

At the same time, a terrifying dragon aura continuously emanated from his body, filling the entire battlefield, making all nearby beasts tremble and cower on the ground.

”Do you know which race the Heavenly Dragon Continent belonged to before it was dominated by you humans?”

The Dragon Crown Prince suddenly asked a question.

Ling Xiao replied indifferently, ”What domination are you talking about? Since the day the King of People established his rule under heaven, the entire Mysterious World has been governed by the Human Sacred Dynasty.

Although the Ten Thousand Clans lived in harmony, humans were revered as the spirit of all things.

I’ve heard that in the past, the Heavenly Dragon Continent was home to a powerful Heavenly Dragon Kingdom that was affiliated with the Sacred Dynasty.

But during the True Demon Empire’s invasion, it was completely annihilated by them.”

”Hmph! How much of what’s in the history books is actually true?”

The Dragon Crown Prince suddenly snorted coldly, ”You humans are the most insignificant and vile race on this earth. If it weren’t for you, the Heavenly Dragon Kingdom wouldn’t have perished.”

Ling Xiao did not speak, he just listened indifferently.

He wanted to hear what nonsense could come out of the Dragon Crown Prince’s mouth.

After all, he had just been through a battle and was somewhat exhausted, so since the Dragon Crown Prince didn’t intend to start fighting immediately, he could use this chance to recover.

The Dragon Crown Prince continued talking to himself, ”The Heavenly Dragon Kingdom was a nation primarily of the Sky Dragon Clan.

The noble and powerful Sky Dragon Clan were the guardians of the Heavenly Dragon Continent by nature.

Even before the Mysterious World was divided, when the Heavenly Dragon Continent was still called the Heavenly Dragon Domain, the Sky Dragon Clan had been its guardians.”

This matter, Ling Xiao had heard before, it is rumored that the Sky Dragon Clan was a clan with the Heavenly Dragon Bloodline.

Of course, they were different from the true Dragon Clan; they were just hybrids of the Dragon Clan and humans.

They could only be considered descendants.

The ten great Ancient Bloodline tribes were actually like this; after all, history is so ancient that the true Ancient Mythical Beasts have long since vanished.

This is also why when Joshua Long revealed his Dragon Clan identity, so many people were surprised.

However, Ling Xiao was somewhat perplexed as to why the Dragon Crown Prince was saying all this, and what it had to do with the battle between him and the Dragon Crown Prince?

As if sensing his confusion, the Dragon Crown Prince continued, ”Tens of thousands of years ago, when the True Demon Empire launched a large-scale invasion of the Sacred Dynasty, the Heavenly Dragon Kingdom, as a vassal state of the Sacred Dynasty, was obligated to engage in a fierce battle with the sea race forces of the True Demon Empire.

The True Demon Empire’s army was incredibly powerful, led by the True Demon Emperor, they fought all the way and nearly broke into the Holy Dynasty Sacred City.

However, after encountering resistance from the Heavenly Dragon Kingdom, this arrogant army was halted.

The Heavenly Dragon Kingdom was essentially the gateway to the Holy City, and one had to pass through it to reach the Holy City.

Yet the True Demon Empire’s army was completely stopped there.

The history books only recorded a battle between the True Demon Emperor and Saint Emperor Ji Wu.

However, nothing was mentioned about the battle between the King of the Heavenly Dragon Kingdom and the True Demon Emperor.

That battle was indeed evenly matched, evenly balanced, and it was the first time the True Demon Emperor encountered such a terrifying opponent.”

”Where did you learn all this from?”

Ling Xiao suddenly asked.

”Of course, I read it in the history of our Sky Dragon Clan!”

The Dragon Crown Prince righteously said, ”Originally, if Saint Emperor Ji Wu was willing, he could definitely have joined forces with the then king of the Heavenly Dragon Kingdom to kill the True Demon Emperor, causing the True Demon Empire’s army to surely retreat.

But Ji Wu didn’t do that; instead, he feared the King of the Heavenly Dragon would overshadow him in merit, so he tricked the King into the Holy City to have him killed!

For all his illustrious life, the King of the Heavenly Dragon was ultimately betrayed by despicable humans and even the Sky Dragon Clan was implicated, nearly exterminated.

But Ji Wu probably didn’t expect that before the King’s death, he would pass on his Sky Dragon King Bloodline.

That person was my ancestor.

And I, the Crown Prince, am the inheritor of this generation’s Sky Dragon King Bloodline, a bloodline that once fought the indomitable True Demon Emperor to a draw!”

As he spoke, the Dragon Crown Prince suddenly unleashed his full aura, and his entire being transitioned into a semi-dragon form.

The clear and authoritative dragon roars lingered in the sky.

”I never expected Senior Brother to be a descendant of the Sky Dragon Clan and possess the Sky Dragon King Bloodline; no wonder he calls himself the Dragon Crown Prince.”

”Yes, I always thought Dragon Crown Prince was a title in our Water Temple.”

The martial artists of the Water Temple discussed among themselves, one by one surprised and delighted.

However, Ling Xiao merely looked at the Dragon Crown Prince and said, ”According to the history of the Sacred Dynasty, the King of the Heavenly Dragon colluded with the True Demon Emperor, killing the general dispatched by Saint Emperor Ji Wu, attempting rebellion.

That’s why he was personally executed in Dragon City by Saint Emperor Ji Wu, contrary to what you said.”

”That’s nonsense, twisted history!”

The Dragon Crown Prince roared.

”Alright, you can consider the Sacred Dynasty’s history as written by the victors and fake.

However, the author of the Mysterious World’s history was a historian from the Immortal Court Continent, and his book recorded an incident:

At that time, the King of the Heavenly Dragon indeed met secretly with the True Demon Emperor outside the city, after which he not only obtained an amnesty token from the True Demon Emperor but also directly poisoned the grand general sent by the Sacred Emperor.

Though this book does not claim the King betrayed, it merely states facts.

But this differs greatly from what you said; it seems your Sky Dragon Clan’s history is unreliable too.”

Ling Xiao was well-read, and especially after acquiring the Mountain and River Martial Soul, he had developed the ability to remember everything he saw.

Everything he read was stored clearly in his mind.

And the incident recorded in this history book was something he had seen in the Moon Hua Sect’s library.

”Actually, I have heard something, a more widely accepted conjecture is that the King of the Heavenly Dragon was indeed very strong, there’s no doubt. Though the True Demon Emperor could defeat him, he was wary of this individual joining forces with Saint Emperor Ji Wu, so he employed a stratagem.

And considering the King’s violent and autocratic tendencies, he fell into the True Demon Emperor’s trap.

Faced with the King’s actions, Saint Emperor Ji Wu had no choice but to execute him.

He was the Sacred Emperor, and even with tears in his eyes, he had to uphold the Sacred Dynasty’s laws.”

Fengming Wuyang suddenly spoke up.

”Nonsense! You all are talking nonsense! My ancestor, the King of the Heavenly Dragon, is absolutely not an idiot; it was those despicable and vile humans who killed him and smeared his name.”

The Dragon Crown Prince’s reaction was extremely agitated.

”Enough, I’m not interested in judging your ancestor. Since you’ve inherited the Sky Dragon King’s Bloodline, I really want to see just how powerful this bloodline of yours truly is!”

The rights and wrongs of the past are hard to clarify, but it does not hinder today’s fight between him and the Dragon Crown Prince.

That’s all that matters.
