Chapter 1174 — Chapter 1174 Returning To Ancient Dragon City

1174 Returning to Ancient Dragon City

Yuan wasn't surprised when he saw this notification, as he already knew the location in his heart the second he saw the cloudy scenery.

Xiao Hua came out of his body a second later to ask, "Where are we, Brother Yuan?"

"We're currently in—"

But before Yuan could finish, Feng Yuxiang also appeared, and she immediately started complaining, "Young Master! This place reeks of a dragon's scent! I think there's a dragon nearby!"

Yuan smiled, "Of course, it would smell like dragons. This is the Ancient Dragon City, after all."

Lan Yingying also appeared and asked, "The same place that the Mystic Realm took you to?"

He nodded, "Indeed. I was teleported here when I activated some kind of teleportation formation in the Mystic Pagoda."

"Since the Dragon Ancestor knew Tian Xin, it's not surprising that we would come back here through the Nameless Emperor's Tomb."

Suddenly, Yuan and his group turned to look in a certain direction, where a large group of human figures could be seen approaching them. If he didn't know any better, he would've mistaken them as a fellow human.

However, for some reason, they looked even more aggressive this time around, and there were ten times as many people in their group.

"How dare a phoenix trespass into a dragon's territory!"

"I can even smell an Exile amongst them!"

"Attack! Do not let them reach the city!"

"W-Wait—" Yuan didn't even get a chance to speak this time before the dragons launched their attacks on him and his group.

"You dare bare your fangs at my Young Master?! Watch as I burn you alive!" Feng Yuxiang exclaimed as she also launched her own attacks at the incoming dragons.

The relationship between dragons and phoenixes are akin to fire and water in the Nine Heavens. Whenever they see each other, it would always result in some kind of fight.

Because of this, the dragons attacked them on sight, and Feng Yuxiang did not hesitate to fight back.

Dong! Dong! Dong!

The sound of war drums suddenly started playing loudly, alerting the other dragons in the city that a battle had started.

This greatly shocked the residents in the city, as they haven't heard the war drums being played for hundreds of thousands of years.

By now, it was already too late for Yuan to try and de-escalate the situation, and he could only hold Feng Yuxiang back while shielding his group from the dragon's aggressive attacks.

"Feng Feng! Stop! They are not our enemies!" Yuan subconsciously hugged her slim waist to hold her back.

"Oh!" Feng Yuxiang immediately stopped her attacks and blushed, even going limp a little.

However, the dragons did not stop their attacks even after Feng Yuxiang stopped attacking.

Seeing this, Yuan could only create a barrier around his own group using Sword Aura, which destroyed any incoming attacks the moment they touched the barrier.

Eventually, more dragons could be seen entering the battle.

It did not take long before Yuan and his group were surrounded by dragons.

"This is all your fault, phoenix." Xiao Hua uttered in a displeased manner, putting all of the blame on her.

"What?! You're not being fair! They attacked us first!" Feng Yuxiang immediately defended her own actions.

"Your presence itself is the problem." Xiao Hua rebuked.

While Feng Yuxiang and Xiao Hua continued to bicker back and forth, the presence of a Spirit Sovereign suddenly appeared out of thin air.

Then a second presence appeared, and it was also a Spirit Sovereign.

Two more unique aura would appear a second later, and they were both Spirit Emperors.

When Yuan sensed these four presence, he couldn't help but smile.

"All of you, halt!" A stern voice echoed shortly after.

Soon, the figure behind the voice appeared, and as Yuan had expected, it was Xi Shengmo, the Dragon Emperor.

There were three people following behind him, and they were Xi Mingze, his wife, Xi Murong, his son, and last but not least, Xi Meili, his daughter.

However, due to the barrier that obstructed Yuan's figure, none of them recognized him.

"I am the ruler of this place, Xi Shengmo! You have ten seconds to identify yourself before my entire kingdom tears you apart, Uninvited Guests!"

"..."

"Let me handle this." Yuan said to the others while staring at Feng Yuxiang.

He then removed the barrier that obstructed his face and flew towards Xi Shengmo.

"Who gave you permission to move?!" Another familiar voice resounded.

It was Captain Cheng, who had interrogated him during his first visit.

Of course, Yuan ignored him and continued approaching the Royal Family.

"Hm? You are…" Xi Shengmo subconsciously squinted his eyes at Yuan after seeing his familiar face.

"No way!" Xi Murong exclaimed.

"Oh my." Xi Mingze covered her mouth from surprise.

"Yuan…?" Xi Meili muttered in a dazed voice before rubbing her eyes to make sure she wasn't seeing things.

"Yuan?!" Her eyes widened with shock after confirming it was him.

"Yes, it's me. And I am so sorry that our reunion had to be celebrated in such a fashion—" Before Yuan could finish his sentence, Xi Meili suddenly shot forward, flying at him like a meteor.

Seeing this, Yuan quickly prepared for her arrival.

"Yuan!!!"

A trail of blissful tears appeared in the sky as Xi Meili dived into his arms.

"Oof…" Yuan released a weird noise as his body was hugged with extreme strength.

"What the hell?" Captain Cheng and many others muttered in a baffled voice after witnessing this unexpected outcome.

"Wait! That human is—!" Captain Cheng eventually recognized Yuan.

"What is that dragon doing to my Young Master?!" Feng Yuxiang gritted her teeth in frustration.

"He actually returned… And in such a short time, too…" Xi Shengmo was shocked for another reason, and when he recalled his bet with Xi Meili, his body trembled uncontrollably.

Meanwhile, Yuan was still being embraced by Xi Meili.

"It's been awhile, Xi Meili." Yuan said to her in a low voice, which only made the arms around his body tighten.
