Chapter 2333 - 2336: If the Dragon Emperor's Treasure Vault Can't Be Opened, I'll Build Another One

Under the gaze of everyone, Taiyin Youying, as beautiful as a crescent moon, took a deep breath, then calmly said, "Shen Qiang, I really want to help you, but I hope you must understand, the true Dragon Emperor has transcended the realm of cultivators and demons. Even gods would tremble before him, so don't think that just having courage can open this door. That kind of fluke mindset will only trigger the Dragon Clan engraving on this flashing door."

Shen Qiang was silent, and said, "And then what will happen?"

"Giant beasts, terrifying techniques, bloody hunts, and death." Taiyin Youying looked seriously at Shen Qiang and said, "I can't be certain, but please believe me, the Dragon Emperor's personality is one of rather destroying everything he has than letting his treasures be snatched away by others. So give up, this is something impossible to achieve."

"Find a suitable excuse to stall for now, then think of a way. If your cultivation speed is fast enough, I will help you get the key."

Looking at Youying, who was as beautiful as a crescent moon, Shen Qiang remained silent, because he knew that the key mentioned by Youying was actually the Dragon Bone. With that thing, Shen Qiang should be able to transform into a dragon. After all, Shen Qiang currently possesses the Essence of the Fetus Dragon.

With the Dragon Bone, he would have everything needed, and transforming into a dragon would definitely not be a problem.

At that time, not only would there be a leap, but once the Dragon Emperor's treasury is opened, and possessed of the Dragon Emperor's Three Divine Artifacts, Shen Qiang's combat power would certainly be explosively strong.

He turned his head and directed his gaze at Uncle Gui.

Seeing Shen Qiang looking at him, Uncle Gui hesitated for a moment, then said solemnly, "Those Sea Demons don't like being controlled, so if you want to stall them, you must have a reasonable excuse. If you hadn't come over before, you could say you were tired, or injured, and wouldn't open the treasury temporarily. But now, stalling them is difficult."

"They won't believe any of my excuses," Shen Qiang said calmly. "Otherwise, I wouldn't have come here now, because they already suspect. The more it's covered up, the more they'll feel their judgment was correct."

"What if it can't be opened? At worst, don't be the Dragon Emperor!" Ye Guyun said unhappily.

Uncle Gui frowned at these words.

Shen Qiang smiled, then sighed, and said, "Before sitting on the Dragon Throne, I never thought about being the Dragon Emperor, nor did I think about making all the Sea Demons submit. But now that the opportunity has arisen, I have to seize it."

"Why?" Ye Guyun said, displeased, "It's not fun under the sea at all."

Hearing this, Shen Qiang laughed and said, "The greater the ability, the greater the responsibility on one's shoulders. Before, I was just an ordinary student, an intern doctor; being lazy and timid was understandable."

"But now it's no longer acceptable. The Huaxia Sea Border is the nation's gateway. We must ensure its security with power, so we can enjoy air conditioning and ice cream at home. Therefore, I must become the Dragon Emperor, as this is an excellent opportunity. If missed, it won't come again."

In an instant, everyone was stunned.

"Are you thinking for Huaxia again?" Sleeping Fire Lotus Demon Ke Bizhu was surprised.

Shen Qiang smiled and said, "Yes, though I don't deny my interest in the Dragon Emperor's Secret Treasure, I am indeed thinking for the country. Sea, land, air, these three aspects are crucial to national security. If we can ensure absolute security of the sea borders, then our country will already be one-third safe."

"So I must not abandon this Sea Emperor role. If I abandon it now, and one day this sea border falls into enemy hands, with endless enemies when our country is in turmoil, it will be too late."

Everyone present heard, and their expressions varied.

Regardless of whether it was Ke Bizhu, Jinli Qianning, or Qingxuan, they gazed at Shen Qiang with admiration in their eyes.

"When poor, take care of oneself; when prosperous, benefit the world. This is what a good man should do." Athena's Divine Body was occupied by Qingxuan; her beautiful eyes were filled with joy looking at Shen Qiang.

Sleeping Fire Lotus Demon Ke Bizhu spoke gently, "There are many people who only consider their own gains and losses, and there's nothing wrong with that. But ensuring one's own interests, what's wrong with doing something for others?"

Jinli Qianning's eyes curved with a smile, "An ambitious man can always seize opportunities. To be the Dragon Emperor is not just about controlling Huaxia's Sea Borders; all the seas will be his territory!"

In their joyful excitement, Ye Guyun hesitated and said, "Shen Qiang, even if your idea is good, it's useless. The Sea Demons are waiting outside, and this warehouse still can't be opened. You can't prove you're the Dragon Emperor."

Old butler Uncle Gui heard this and his expression was solemn, "Exactly, the key problem is you can't open the Dragon Emperor's treasury. If you could open it, acquire the Dragon Emperor's Three Divine Artifacts and use them skillfully, even strong individuals like the Sea Emperor would flee before you."

Shen Qiang heard this and smiled.

And just then, a report was heard from the entrance of the passage from a Great Sea Demon.

"Dragon Emperor, the warriors have assembled, awaiting your command."

"Understood."

Shen Qiang replied casually; his expression then became solemn, thinking while looking at the treasury door exuding a powerful aura, unable to be opened.

"Uncle Gui, go up now; until you receive my notification, don't let any Sea Demons approach here."

Old butler Uncle Gui responded, then said nervously, "Without seeing the treasure, they probably won't leave. I advise you against forcefully opening the treasury. In fact, whether it was Yu Jiang or myself, we've tried many methods in the past but couldn't even approach the door."

Shen Qiang nodded, "Rest assured, I won't act recklessly."

Hearing this, the old butler Uncle Gui took a deep breath, and went up.

After all, the situation here absolutely cannot be seen by any Sea Demons.

If they discover Shen Qiang standing here, helpless, the notion of Dragon Emperor will be immediately dispelled.

"Master, dragging like this isn't a solution; why don't we try attacking together? Perhaps we can break it open." Athena's Divine Body occupied by Qingxuan suggested.

Seeing the somewhat eager expressions of the girls, Shen Qiang laughed, "What use is violently breaking it open? It's even more indicative that I'm not the Dragon Emperor than not being able to open it."

"Then what do we do?"

The helpless girls looked at Shen Qiang anxiously.

But then, they noticed Shen Qiang looking up at the giant golden door was smiling.

"If this treasury can't be opened, then I'll create a new one that can be opened!"

As he spoke, Shen Qiang waved his arm, sending gold bricks flying aside, rapidly melting, and then under the shocked gaze of the girls, it turned into a giant golden door. The peculiar engravings on it unabashedly radiated a majestic aura!
