After they all sat down, they all had different expressions on their faces.

The Azure Dragon Tribe head had the ugliest expression on his face since he knew that the Azure Dragon Tribe would be the ones that suffered the most from this incident.

In just one single move, the Azure Dragon Tribe had received the attention and ire of all seven other tribes. It didn’t matter if they were allied or not before because now that the Azure Dragon Tribe had been given custody of Xiao Feng, they would be targeted by everyone who wanted Xiao Feng for themselves.

So in short, the Azure Dragon Tribe had been thrown into the pot by Lin Fan’s plan.

But no one would have expected it to turn out like this.

The plan originally was to show a bit of Xiao Feng’s origins and then slowly attract the attention of the Dragon Race. That would have paved the way for Hong Long and Qing Ao to come back in time.

However, not a single one of them had expected the elders of the Dragon Race to act.

Once the elders made a move, everything became much more complicated.

They had expected conflict from the seven tribes as they tried to slowly figure out who Xiao Feng was. If it was a slow reveal, the Azure Dragon Tribe head would have been able to take his time to solidify his relationship with some allies, so that it wouldn’t have mattered if people found out about Xiao Feng’s identity later.

But once the elders were involved, everyone immediately knew Xiao Feng’s true identity and that ruined any plans that they had come up with.

So the Azure Dragon Tribe’s current position could be described in one word.

Screwed.

As for Lin Fan, the reason that he had agreed to this was because of his meeting with the Dragon God fragment.

If it was before, he would have only cared about the Azure Dragon Tribe and not the Dragon Race as a whole. Perhaps he would have cared about the Red Dragon Tribe as well since he also had Hong Long by his side, but that would have been it.

But since he had received information from the Dragon God fragment and was told about the importance of the Dragon Race to what he wanted to know, he decided to repay the Dragon God fragment by helping the entire Dragon Race.

The best way to do that was to let Xiao Feng return to the Dragon Race and guide them as the one who had received the Dragon God’s inheritance.

However, now that the plan had been completely derailed, it seemed like it would be much harder to accomplish what the Dragon God fragment wanted him to do.

It might be better for him just to pack up and leave with Xiao Feng, instead of getting involved in the affairs of the Dragon Race.

As long as he packed Xiao Feng inside of his system’s storage, it would be impossible for them to find him. After all, the system was something that came from the gods themselves, so it wasn’t as if these dragons would be able to find him.

Even if there were a bunch of Rulers, they were nothing compared to gods.

But that would be like running away and Lin Fan couldn’t accept that as easily.

So in the end, Lin Fan decided to keep going with this and see how it turned out since he was able to escape as he wanted. All he needed to do was teleport back to his store using the system and he would be gone from this place.

After all, this was still considered being in a cultivation realm and they enjoyed the benefits of it being a cultivation realm.

Namely, the pets would be able to revive at any time and Lin Fan would also be able to revive for a certain amount of points. With the current amount of total points that he had, it was basically negligible for him.

After making up his mind, he turned to look at the Azure Dragon Tribe head and asked, “So what’s the plan now?”

When the Azure Dragon Tribe head heard this, he couldn’t help looking at Lin Fan with a strange look. It was a look of half rage and half confusion since most of his problems came from Lin Fan in the first place.

The plan that they had enacted had also come from Lin Fan.

However, now he was passing this responsibility over to him…

It was as if he was trying to throw all of the problems to him to take care of.

But even if he was angry at Lin Fan, he knew that if it wasn’t for Lin Fan, their Azure Dragon Tribe would have self-destructed from the inside because of Qing Qiang. In the end, Lin Fan had brought back his son and his granddaughter, while also saving their Azure Dragon Tribe.

Though it meant sacrificing one of his sons, he knew that this was already the best ending.

Since he had given this to them, at the very least, the Azure Dragon Tribe head could work with him to solve this.

Not to mention, he too cared very much about Xiao Feng.

He knew that Lin Fan would take Xiao Feng away if things went wrong and that was the last thing that he wanted. He knew how important Xiao Feng was to the Dragon Race and he had seen the figure of the ancestor, the Dragon God earlier.

So after thinking about it…the Azure Dragon Tribe head came up with the idea to…wait and see.

There was nothing that they could really do right now since they had no idea what the elders were thinking.

The elders held all of the power here and if they didn’t know what plans the elders had, it wasn’t as if they could do anything.𝗈𝑣𝒍xt.𝗇𝓔t

Rather, it would be more harmful than helpful to act rashly when the elders were involved.

Lin Fan agreed with this plan in the end since he knew that he was right. Not to mention, he wanted to learn a bit more about the Dragon Race as a whole before he did anything.

So they decided to just stay idle for a few days to see what happened.

…

Inside of a dark hall, there were several cloaked figures sitting there.

These cloaked figures all had the same cloak and the design of this cloak was…the cloak that the elders who had gone to the Azure Dragon Tribe had worn.

All of these cloaked figures sitting here were the elders of the Dragon Race.

Not to mention that based on the number of seats that were left empty, there were more than double their numbers that were just not here at this meeting.

It was no wonder they weren’t afraid of the human Astral Empires.

The further up they were seated, the older the elder.

Then in the very center, on one end of the room, there was a dragon shaped statue.

This was a statue that Lin Fan would be familiar with because he had seen a statue just like this before. It was the statue of the Dragon God.

The two elders who were sitting closest to the statue were the oldest elders and were called the Great Elders of the Dragon Race.

The left Great Elder was the first to speak.

“Are you sure you weren’t able to find anything?”

The one that he was speaking to was the leader of the elders who had gone to the Azure Dragon Tribe today.

This elder said with a nod, “Great Elder, we have already scanned the entire Azure Dragon Tribe and we weren’t able to find a single clue about the true descendant’s origins.”

After they had left the Azure Dragon Tribe, the three elders had actually stayed nearby and observed the Azure Dragon Tribe for the rest of the day. They had even mobilized all of their spies to check every inch of the Azure Dragon Tribe, but they weren’t able to find anything.

It seemed like that true descendant Xiao Feng had just appeared out of thin air.

Both of the Great Elders knitted their brows when they heard this before the right Great Elder asked, “What about Qing Di? Has he not said anything yet?”

Qing Di was the name of the Azure Dragon Tribe head.

The three elders had also sent a secret message to Qing Di asking him about Xiao Feng. In that message, they had put many threats and bribes that they hadn’t used in the morning at the ceremony.

After all, they had their pride as elders to consider and couldn’t do it in public.

But in private…they held no qualms.

But the answer that Qing Di had sent them was the same as what he had told them in public.

He made it clear that he didn’t know anything about Xiao Feng and had only met him the first time when his granddaughter had brought him back with the Dragon Stone.

He was able to make it so convincing since this was actually the truth. He just chose to omit certain facts.

The elder shook his head to answer this question.

Both of the Great Elders knitted their brows even more when they saw this.

Finally the left Great Elder said, “It seems like we have no other choice.”

The right Great Elder seemed more hesitant as he asked, “Are you sure we should do this?”

The left Great Elder gave a firm nod before saying, “It’s the only way.”

After a long silence, the right Great Elder said with a nod, “Alright.”

Then without even giving an order, a few of the elders suddenly left the room to take care of something.

However, there was a tense and dark feeling that filled this room after they left.

This feeling was…regret and worry.
