After the ck-d young man heard Duan Ru Feng’s words, he immediately turned to look at Di Shan who had an awkward expression on his face.
The two people were the Mansion Master of the Azure Cloud Mansion and the leader of the Mountainshade ck Market. The Azure Cloud Mansion had always been at loggerheads with the Mountainshade ck Market. If it was not absolutely necessary, he did not want to get involved in this matter. Moreover, he was not certain the dragon n and the Mountainshade ck Market couldpletely annihte the Azure Cloud Mansion even they joined forces. If they failed to annihte the Azure Cloud Mansion, what would await the dragon n was only a huge disaster.
Things were different for the Mountainshade ck Market. They were already enemies with the Azure Cloud Mansion. It did not make much of a difference even if they offended the Azure Cloud Mansion again. However, this was not the case for the dragon n.
Moreover, the way Mountainshade ck Market’s conduct was not exactly very ethical. It was not too bad if they only had dealings with the Mountainshade ck Market in a certain aspect. After all, many forces in the Dao Martial Saint Land had dealings with the Mountainshade ck Market as well. However, no one wanted to get involved with the Mountainshade ck Market, it was all strictly business.
If the dragon n became the ally of the Mountainshade ck Market, the reputation of the dragon n in the Dao Martial Saint Land would inevitably be affected. Most of Mountainshade ck Market’s dealings were considered illegal. Therefore, their reputation was not the best in the Dao Martial Saint Land.
If the dragon n really had gotten involved with the Mountainshade ck Market, the prideful dragon n might be like mice on the streets that everyone wanted to kill. This was something Di Shan did not want to see.
Whether it was because of his wariness toward the Azure Cloud Mansion or his unwillingness to get involved with the Mountainshade ck Market, Di Shan would not ally himself with the Mountainshade ck Market to go against the Azure Cloud Mansion.
“Leader Dugu, I appreciate your kind offer, but it is indeed the dragon n who’s at fault this time,” Di Shan said and declined the offer as the ck-d young man looked at him.
“Humph!” When the ck-d young man heard Di Shan’s refusal, his expression changed slightly before he snorted. “If that’s the case, I’ll stay out of this shit between both of you.” After the ck-d young man, Dugu Ling, the leader of Mountainshade ck Market, finished speaking, he seemed to have vanished into thin air with a gust of wind.
Although Leader Dugu of Mountainshade ck Market had expected Di Shan’s decision, he could not help but curse Di Shan when faced with his refusal.
Since he could not get the dragon n to join forces with him to take down the Azure Cloud Mansion, there was no point in him staying.
“Leader Dugu, Duan Ru Feng has a son called Duan Ling Tian! I think he’s not at the Azure Cloud Mansion now. In fact, Duan Ru Feng might not even know of his whereabouts.” At the moment before Leader Dugu of the Mountainshade ck Market left, a Voice Transmission rang in his ear.
“Duan Ru Feng’s son? Duan Ling Tian? Interesting! How interesting!” Leader Dugu of the Mountainshade ck Market’s eyes lit up when he heard the news. No one discovered that anything was amiss because he had left so quickly.
Dugu did not doubt the veracity of the words he heard because he had discovered the person who had sent the Voice Transmission. It was none other than Di Jue, the other Five-wed Golden Dragon in the dragon n.
Although Di Jue was only a small potato who was not even worth mentioning in his eyes, he had paid attention to Di Jue because of his Five-wed Golden Dragon bloodline. He knew Di Jue was the kind of person, to be more precise, a Five-wed Golden Dragon, who would seek revenge for the slightest grievances.
Although he did not know what had caused the enmity between Duan Ru Feng and the dragon n, based on the situation earlier, he knew it had something to do with Di Jue. Due to this reason, he did not doubt Di Jue’s words.
Di Jue’s eyes gleamed coldly after he sent the Voice Transmission to Leader Dugu of the Mountainshade ck Market. He thought to himself, ‘Duan Ling Tian, just wait for the people from the Mountainshade ck Market to look for trouble with you. I might not even have to do anything, the Mountainshade ck Market might even get rid of you before I do.’
In fact, Di Jue was not really certain if Duan Ling Tian was at the Azure Cloud Mansion or not. He had only sent the Voice Transmission to the Mountainshade ck Market’s leader because he had hoped it would cause Duan Ling Tian trouble.
Unless Duan Ling Tian stayed in the Azure Cloud Mansion forever, there was no way the Mountainshade ck Market would let Duan Ling Tian roam around freely.
As Azure Cloud Mansion’s mortal enemy, the Mountainshade ck Market would not let go of any opportunity to defeat the Azure Cloud Mansion. Especially when Duan Ling Tian was the only son of the Mansion Master of Azure Cloud Mansion!
“Mansion Master Duan, state your conditions... I believe you already have something in mind,” Di Shan said without beating around the bush as he looked at Duan Ru Feng.
Duan Ru Feng did not give him an out. Therefore, he had to find a way to resolve this on his own. Although it was slightly embarrassing, he did not have any other options.
“In three years time, you’ll allow my son to enter the dragon n’s Dragon Cleansing Pool,” Duan Ru Feng said bluntly when he saw how direct Di Shan was.
He knew it would not be beneficial to him if he had forced Di Shan into a corner. Although he was not afraid of Di Shan and the dragon n, he had to be cautious due to their connections. The dragon n had a close connection with those at the Upper Province. Rumor had it that the dragon n was divided into two. One in the Upper Province and the other in the Lower Province.
Dragon Cleansing Pool!
Duan Ru Feng finally stated his condition. The dragon n had to allow his son to enter the dragon n’s Dragon Cleansing Pool.
As soon as Duan Ru Feng finished speaking, Di Shan and the five Five-wed Divine Dragon elders changed their expression. They did not expect Duan Ru Feng’s request to be so outrageous.
“No way!” Before Di Shan could respond, Di Jue shouted, “The Dragon Cleansing Pool is our dragon n’s sacrednd. Only Five-wed Golden Dragons are allowed to enter the pool. Mansion Master Duan, don’t overstep the boundary!”
“Don’t overstep the boundary?” Duan Ru Feng smiled at Di Jue’s words. “It’s fine if you refuse to allow my son to enter the Dragon Cleansing Pool, however, I want your life in exchange for it! I would like to see if your life matters more or the Dragon Cleansing Pool matters more... You should think it through. Even if you can’t enter the Dragon Cleansing Pool in three years time, you can still enter it after 5,000 years. If you die, let alone 5,000 years, I’m afraid you won’t even have a chance to enter the Dragon Cleansing Pool even after 50,000 years!” Duan Ru Feng said loudly and clearly.
Every word was like a hammer mming on Di Jue’s heart. He panicked, his face turning pale.
Although he knew the dragon n would protect him, he was still really afraid of Duan Ru Feng.
The Dragon Cleansing Pool was the sacrednd of the dragon n that would open every 5,000 years. The pool had nurtured all kinds of Heaven and Earth’s essence in it.
Due to the fact that it only opened once every 5,000 years, only one person was allowed to enter. This was why it was considered as a golden opportunity in the dragon n. Due to this reason, the spot was usually reserved for young Five-wed Golden Dragons.
After the Five-wed Golden Dragon entered the Dragon Cleansing Pool, apart from improving his cultivation base, it would also unleash his full potential.
It was said that the Dragon Cleansing Pool could unleash the potential in every part of one’s body.
Even the current n Leader of the dragon n, Di Shan, had never entered the Dragon Cleansing Pool.
In fact, Di Shan’s story could be considered a tragedy. When he was younger, there was another Five-wed Golden Dragon who was the same age as him. The Five-wed Golden Dragon was just a little bit more outstanding than him and won the chance to enter the Dragon Cleansing Pool when it opened almost 5,000 years ago.
Before entering the Dragon Cleansing Pool, that Five-wed Golden Dragon was only a little stronger than Di Shan. However, after he came out of the Dragon Cleansing Pool, he had easily overpowered Di Shan.
It was obvious how extraordinary the Dragon Cleansing Pool was.
Back then, that Five-wed Golden Dragon was recognized as the next n Leader of the dragon n. However, he was arrogant and stirred up trouble everywhere after he came out of the Dragon Cleansing Pool because his strength was superior to everyone apart from the n Leader at that time. Rumor had it that he eventually offended a young miss from a powerful force from the Upper Province who came to the Lower Province on a trip and was killed by the young miss’ subordinates.
Due to that, the Five-wed Golden Dragon that was supposed to lead the dragon n to glory after entering the Dragon Cleansing Pool had died just like that. It was the biggest regret of the dragon n.
Under these circumstances, Di Shan, the ‘spare heir’, managed to assume the position of n Leader. He was one of the few n Leaders in the history of the dragon n who had never entered the Dragon Cleansing Pool.
Di Shan was no longer young, and his strength had improved so much that even if he were to enter the Dragon Cleansing Pool now, the room for improvement was limited. Hence, for the opening of the Dragon Cleansing Pool in three years time, Di Shan had nned to let Di Jue enter it.
He believed Di Jue would surpass him and be a powerful n Leader after entering the Dragon Cleansing Pool.
Although Di Shan was strong, because he had never entered the Dragon Cleansing Pool, he did not reach the level where he could stand above everyone in the Lower Province. This was why he had to cautious when faced with leaders from forces with simr strength like Duan Ru Feng.
It should be noted that apart from him, every n Leader who had entered the Dragon Cleansing Pool was almost invincible in the Lower Province before they left for the Upper Province in ordance to the dragon n’sw! It was clear how beneficial the Dragon Cleansing Pool was.
Due to this reason, when Duan Ru Feng stated his condition was for his son to enter the Dragon Cleansing Pool, Di Jue spoke up in a moment of panic,pletely forgetting that Duan Ru Feng was someone he could not afford to offend.
He was so anxious because he did not want to follow in Di Shan’s footsteps. Among all the n Leaders of the dragon n, Di Shan’s life was considered a tragedy. If Di Jue’s chance to enter the Dragon Cleansing Pool in three years time was taken away by Duan Ling Tian, his life would be a tragedy like Di Shan.
