Chapter 1002 Dragon Race’s Request (2)



𝞸𝔳𝓵xt.𝑪𝑂𝐦

Two days later, the meeting had been set with the Dragon Race envoys.

The Lin Astral Emperor had been stalling them with lies that Lin Fan was busy recently because of the Beast Race invasion matters.

The invasion of the Beast Race was something that had already spread not just across their Lin Astral Empire, but across many different Astral Empires, so it wasn’t as if the Dragon Race envoys didn’t know about this.

In fact, even the Dragon Race had been bothered by this since it wasn’t just the Lin Astral Empire that had been invaded.

No one knew what happened to the Beast Race, but they suddenly invaded several different tribes of the Myriad Race and several Astral Empires. And to everyone’s surprise, the Beast Race had been able to push back several of the groups that they invaded.

One of the tribes of the Myriad Race that had been invaded was an ally of the Dragon Race, so they had no choice but to send reinforcements to them.

So they knew just how bad the situation was and they knew that they couldn’t force the Lin Astral Empire to let them meet Lin Fan. So they patiently waited for Lin Fan to be free to meet them.

If it was a normal envoy, the Lin Astral Emperor would have been able to stall much longer, but this wasn’t a normal envoy.

These were subordinates of Qing Ao’s brother, so they were rather young dragons. They were much younger than the normal dragons that would have been sent as envoys.

With their youth came impulsiveness…these young subordinates of Qing Ao’s brother didn’t have the same patience that the older envoys would have had.

So by the second day, they were already getting very impatient and urgently requesting to meet Lin Fan.

eaglesnovɐ1,сoМ Lin Fan had planned on stalling for a few more days so he could get more information and make a better decision, but it seemed like the Dragon Race envoys couldn’t hold it in anymore.

Since he didn’t want to cause any problems for the Lin Astral Empire, he decided to meet with them.

The Dragon Race envoys were brought to this special meeting room that had been set and found that Lin Fan was sitting there.

Lin Fan was the famous heir to the Lin Astral Empire, so people knew what he looked like from the pictures that had spread. So as soon as the Dragon Race envoys saw him, they knew who he was.

So they sat down in front of him without making much of a fuss, but they sat there in silence. It was as if they were waiting for Lin Fan to make the first move.

But Lin Fan also sat there in silence, casually sipping the tea in front of him as if he didn’t notice the envoys coming in at all.

It soon became a staring contest where one’s patience was tested.

The patience of the envoys ran out first since they were impulsive youths in the first place and they were the ones that had insisted on this meeting.

One of the envoys who had blue hair cupped their hands and said, “Your highness, I am Qing Lan from the Azure Dragon Tribe.”

Lin Fan gave a simple nod when he heard this, still not intending to speak.

There was a trace of annoyance that flashed in this Qing Lan’s eyes when he heard this.

It was almost as if Lin Fan wasn’t planning on giving him any face at all…but Qing Lan also couldn’t do anything to Lin Fan since he was the heir of the Lin Astral Family.

Qing Lan might be the envoy from the Dragon Race, but the status between the two sides was completely different. After all, he was an envoy of the Dragon Race and couldn’t represent the Dragon Race, let alone the Azure Dragon Tribe.

On the other hand, Lin Fan was the prince of the Lin Astral Empire, with the trust of the Lin Astral Emperor, so he had actual power in the Lin Astral Empire.

If Qing Lan were to offend Lin Fan in some way, he would be the one that suffered.

So he endured his annoyance and anger and said, “Your highness, we’ve asked to meet with you today because we wanted to discuss an issue with you.”

Lin Fan gave a nod, still not saying a single thing.

This time, it wasn’t just Qing Lan who was annoyed by this, but also the rest of the envoys from the Dragon Race. However, Qing Lan raised a hand to signal to them to calm down.

While he was still as impulsive as the rest, he was also able to figure out what Lin Fan was doing.

He wouldn’t let the rest of them fall into Lin Fan’s pace.

So Qing Lan took out a picture and placed it on the table before saying, “Your highness, do you recognize the person in this picture?”

Lin Fan looked down at it and as he had expected it was a picture of Qing Ao in his human form. However, his face was calm the entire time as he looked at the picture.

Seeing that there was no reaction from Lin Fan, Qing Lan couldn’t help being a bit surprised.

However, he didn’t stop there as he said, “Your highness, the one in the picture is called Qing Ao as you already know and I hope that you will hand this traitor to our tribe over.”

He didn’t dare say this in a commanding tone since it was Lin Fan, but there was a firm tone to his voice as well.

Lin Fan didn’t show any emotions again, but he couldn’t help being a bit taken aback deep down.

As he had already somewhat expected, this matter was related to Qing Ao.

However, he never thought that the envoys would be so direct about it.

For them to be this direct, they either had to be idiots or they had some kind of other plan.

Lin Fan looked at the envoys in front of him and thought…it was the former.

They didn’t seem smart enough to have any other plans judging by what Lin Fan could read from them, so they must not have any other plans in the first place. They were just trying to place pressure on him or trying to catch him off guard by mentioning this name.

It was just too bad that Lin Fan’s mind and emotions were much deeper than theirs, so he didn’t react at all to this.

He just calmly looked at the envoys without a single reaction to the demand that Qing Lan had just made.

Even though it was the Dragon Race envoys that had made a demand of Lin Fan, they were the ones that were being pressured by Lin Fan who was just silently sitting there.

The pressure that they felt from Lin Fan was so much that the envoys who had been standing up couldn’t help taking a step back.

Finally, Qing Lan said, “Your highness, you should know that doing something like this will not bring any benefits to your Lin Astral Empire or your human race. We are just here asking for a simple…”

Before he could finish, Lin Fan suddenly slapped the table and said, “Are you threatening me?”

The Dragon Race envoys were completely caught off guard by this since they never expected such a strong reaction from Lin Fan.

Qing Lan’s mouth was just stuck open as he didn’t know how to respond to this.

Lin Fan had gone from the quiet and calm type to this explosive and angry type. It was just too much of a difference that they couldn’t even process it.

But then Qing Lan said in a slightly panicked voice, “Your highness, of course we wouldn’t dare do that. We were just saying that it would be beneficial for your Lin Astral Empire to be owed a favour from our Dragon Race.”

Lin Fan narrowed his eyes to look at Qing Lan and this put even more pressure on him.

Qing Lan couldn’t help shrinking back into the couch that he sat on when he was hit with this pressure. However, he was also the leader of this group, so he couldn’t keep acting like this.

So Qing Lan forced himself to sit up again.

When he did, Lin Fan suddenly said, “Can you say that you can represent the Dragon Race?”

Qing Lan opened his mouth as if he was going to respond, but then it seemed like his words got stuck in his mouth.

He had been about to say “of course”, but then he realized what Lin Fan was doing. If he really did say that, then that would be it for him.

While they had come as the Dragon Race envoy, in truth, they were just here as the Azure Dragon Tribe’s envoys and it wasn’t even with the full power of the Azure Dragon Tribe.

They had only come here with a few tricks that had been played by the eldest son of the Azure Dragon Tribe’s leader, so they weren’t actually here officially.

So if Qing Lan were to say this to the Lin Astral Empire and if this was spread, it would be over for him. The Dragon Race would cut all ties with him and he would even be hunted down for impersonating a real envoy of the Dragon Race.

So no matter what he did, he couldn’t actually admit that he could represent the entire Dragon Race.

When Lin Fan saw this, he couldn’t help giving a cold laugh deep down.

He was slowly forcing these envoys into the trap he had set for them.
