Nine Nether Dragon Emperor-Chapter 324: They’ve All Been Wiped Out, No Need to Lie!
Four Jiao Dragons!
Their Bloodlines were of the utmost purity!
They were merely a thread away from evolving into the true Dragon Clan!
As Ning Xuan's gaze swept over the four dragons, they all felt a sense of discomfort. It was as if all their secrets had been laid bare. However, the feeling vanished in an instant, so brief they thought it was just an illusion.
"Ancestors, this boy is vicious, and he seems to possess great fortune! If you use him to refine a Human Pill, you will surely break through your shackles and ascend to an even higher level!" the Princely Heir's voice rang out. After glancing at Yun Wangshu, his desire to have Ning Xuan killed grew uncontrollable.
Eight eyes burst with brilliant light, all focusing on Ning Xuan. An inexplicable Majestic Pressure swept over them, instantly sealing the entire area!
Behind Ning Xuan, the four women felt as though they were suffocating. Although the four Jiao Dragons had not targeted them, the mere wisps of leaking aura possessed terrifying power. Let alone the other three, even Zhongli Ruoruo let out a muffled groan. Though she had instinctively blocked most of the aura, her Cultivation had only recovered to the Fourth Layer Heavens of the Emperor Realm. The leaking aura from the barrier the Jiao Dragons created was nearly unbearable, a clear testament to their immense power.
She couldn't help but worry for Ning Xuan. He was locked in place by their aura. The slightest movement would trigger a thunderous attack. Under such conditions, it was nearly impossible to even use the Cloud Floating Sword.
But at that moment, not only did Ning Xuan fail to grow tense, he became even more relaxed. A carefree smile even graced his face.
"What are you laughing at?!" the old dragon facing Ning Xuan demanded, his brow furrowed.
This young man from the Human Race was truly different from anyone they had ever encountered before. When they joined forces to seal an area, it was a rare feat for their target not to break down in tears and beg for mercy. Yet this youth acted as if nothing was wrong and was actually laughing!
Incredible!
"I'm laughing at you for squandering such a perfect opportunity. Laughing because you've missed a once-in-a-lifetime chance, all because of me."
Hearing this, the four Jiao Dragons grew even more curious.
"What do you mean by that?"
Since their target couldn't escape anyway, the four dragons decided to see if this upstart had anything of value to say.
"If I'm not... mistaken, you were all in seclusion just now, weren't you? And you were forced to come out because of him?" Ning Xuan asked, glancing at the Princely Heir.
The neck of the Princely Heir, Jiao Ao, instinctively recoiled. A terrible premonition bloomed in his heart. He immediately urged the four dragons, "Ancestors, the Human Race is cunning and deceitful! Please, make your move quickly!"
"He's a fish in a barrel. There's no rush," one of the old dragons replied before turning back to Ning Xuan. "And then? What are you trying to say?"
If this kid thinks he can sow discord with some low-level trick, he's going to be sorely disappointed.
As if reading its mind, Ning Xuan's lips curved into a smirk. "Don't worry, I won't disappoint you. I'll only drive you mad."
"Haha, who do you think you are?!" Jiao Ao burst out laughing. The anxiety he had felt just moments before instantly evaporated, replaced by pure mockery.
The four Jiao Dragons also smiled in amusement.
"You've got some nerve," one of the old dragons said. "How about this? From now on, you can be our attendant."
Ning Xuan ignored him and asked a question of his own. "Before you were forced out of seclusion, did you all feel a heating, itching sensation between the third and fourth vertebrae of your spines?"
The four dragons stopped smiling. Their eyes narrowed sharply.
"It seems I guessed correctly," Ning Xuan continued. "Do you have any idea what would have happened next?"
There was no response, but the dragons' breathing grew noticeably heavier. They subconsciously clenched their fists. Deep down, they already had an inkling of what Ning Xuan was about to say. But they still clung to a sliver of hope.
Ning Xuan chuckled. "This is the most crucial stage of the Dragon Transformation. If you hadn't been forced out, then next..." He paused dramatically before continuing, "You would have broken through your shackles, transformed from Jiao to Dragon, and completed your metamorphosis!"
The moment his words landed, the four Jiao Dragons spat blood in unison. They didn't doubt him because they had already performed countless deductions, and everything he had described up to that point matched their findings perfectly. The difference was that the final step Ning Xuan mentioned was the one they had striven for for countless years without success. Since the preceding parts were flawless, his conclusion must also be true! The thought that centuries of their effort had just gone down the drain shattered their composure.
"See? I told you they'd go mad," Ning Xuan said, suddenly turning to Jiao Ao.
Jiao Ao, who had been backing away, froze on the spot. He saw the gazes of the four Jiao Dragons land on him.
THUD!
"Ancestors, spar—"
BOOM!
Before he could finish his plea, one of the old dragons blasted him into dust.
"You know so much... You must have a solution, right?" another old dragon suddenly asked Ning Xuan, his face filled with desperate hope.
"Well..."
THUD!
"I beg you, please help us!" Seeing a glimmer of hope, the old dragon knelt without a second thought.
The other three reacted just as swiftly. In an instant, all four great ancestors of the Jiao King's Manor were kneeling.
In the distance, the bipedal beasts of the manor were stupefied by the scene. The ancestors' majesty was inviolable. They couldn't possibly fail to capture a mere human. For that reason, the beasts had kept their distance. They didn't know what had just transpired, but they could now clearly see the four ancestors kneeling.
On a distant high-rise, several bipedal beasts leaned out, their bodies stretching farther and farther as they completely forgot their precarious position. The railing broke. With shrieks of terror, they flailed as they fell. Even so, not a single gaze turned their way. All eyes were fixed on the four kneeling Jiao Dragons.
"Um, you should probably get up. Your descendants are watching," Ning Xuan couldn't help but remind them.
This time, the four dragons' thoughts were perfectly synchronized. They acted in unison. In an instant, every last beast in the Jiao King's Manor was annihilated.
"My Lord, we have wiped out those unfilial descendants. From now on, we will follow your lead alone. We beg you, please save us," the four Jiao Dragons pleaded, their faces a mixture of desperation and hope.
Dragon Transformation was their ultimate goal, something for which they would pay any price.
"Well... seeing as you're all so sincere, alright," Ning Xuan agreed after a brief hesitation.
The four Jiao Dragons were ecstatic.
"Young Master, they're beasts! If you help them with their Dragon Transformation, they'll turn on you and kill you!" Yuan Yurong's voice suddenly cut in.
Ning Xuan not only froze but also took a step back.
"Absolutely not! If we dare to move against you, may the heavens strike us down with lightning!" the four Jiao Dragons cried out in a panic, each raising a hand to swear an oath.
The four great ancestors of the proud Jiao Dragon clan, for the sake of Dragon Transformation, were humbling themselves in the dust.
"I think we should trust them," Zhongli Ruoruo stepped forward, voicing a contrary opinion. "They even killed their own offspring, cutting off their entire lineage. They have no reason to lie now."
