Immortal God Emperor

Chapter 834, Return kindness with ingrat.i.tude

Chapter 834, Return kindness with ingrat.i.tude

On the main seat in the main hall, Empress Yu Xiaoxing was patiently receiving the five visitors of a foreign race.

Although Yu Xiaoxing had heard their manner of speaking and questioning tone before, but as the Empress of Heaven Wasteland Domain, she still acted very tolerant and kind.

On the other side stood Old Fish, who disliked getting involved in trifles such as receiving guests and discussing official business, but was somehow standing in the corner of the hall.

He had a strange look and curiosity in his eyes, as though he was studying the guests of the Dragon-Human clan.  

Seeing Ye Qingyu come in, Yu Xiaoxing revealed a faint smile, and then introduced the two parties, “Everybody, this is Palace Lord Ye. Palace Lord Ye, these are guests from the Dragon-Human clan, who have been waiting for a while.” 

Upon hearing this, the several experts of the Dragon-Human clan immediately cast their eyes over with a hint of curiosity. They were all sizing up the youngster at the door, whose robe was whiter than snow, black hair like waterfall, and had an aura of elegance. 

“You... are Ye Qingyu?” The Third Princess of the Dragon-Human clan looked Ye Qingyu from head to toe with an arrogant expression, and did not conceal her disdain in the slightest. “My clan"s most valuable treasure - the [Dragon Blood Halberd] is in your hands? Hand it over quickly!"

Ye Qingyu knitted his brows in a frown again. 

Before he could respond, there was a sneer from Old Fish on the other side of the hall. 

“Hey, now the juniors of the Water Race are really more and more disrespectful. Your clan"s valuable treasure had been lost in the 18th district for tens of thousands of years and you had no ability to get it back. Little Ye brought it out for you and you didn"t even thank him...” 

“Humph, weigh yourself first before you meddle in other people"s business. Old man, it"s not your turn to talk. You"re so old that almost all your teeth have fallen out. Hurry up and get lost!” The Third Princess shot a glance at Old Fish and interrupted him, her tone full of ridicule and mockery.

Old Fish flew into a rage upon hearing the remark, even the hair of his beard stood up on its end. 

He was after all an overlord of the Water Race and had lived for millions of years, even if he was no longer powerful due to his Dao injury, ever since coming out of the Underground Moon Immortal Palace, there was no one that dared to mock him and speak to him with such an att.i.tude.

The old ancestor of the Water Race was about to retaliate.

But Ye Qingyu gently shook his head and signaled him to stop. 

The Dragon-Human clan experts were not any good people, but it was a critical moment for the Heaven Wasteland diplomatic corps, and it was not worth making enemies just because of a little quarrel. 

Immediately, he chanted an ancient word, retrieving the [Dragon Blood Halberd] from the [Cloud Top Cauldron].

The beautifully styled and peculiar-looking halberd laid in Ye Qingyu"s hand. The body of the halberd was black, about five meters long, and a lifelike golden dragon was coiling around it. The dragon scales were glowing a golden light, and the dragon head was roaring to the sky. The three p.r.o.ngs of the blood-red halberd extended out from the dragon head and there seemed to be essence and blood constantly transforming and condensing within them.  

A strange aura that was enough to make Heaven and earth shudder instantly filled the air. 

In the middle of the hall. 

The gaze of the Third Princess, as well as the four experts was fixed on the halberd almost instantaneously.

A few moments later, everybody grew a little excited, eyes filled with the look of greed. 

In excitement, the Third Princess turned to look at the thick-browed old man, who had a sinister glint in his eyes.

The equally excited old man nodded quickly. His eyes were still wandering around the halberd, as though he had found a valuable treasure on a pilgrimage.

Having received a positive response, the Third Princess"s eyes were more overflowing with joy. She stretched out her hand and tried to grab the [Dragon Blood Halberd]. 

Just as her hand was about to touch the halberd, Ye Qingyu"s hand flashed, causing the Third Princess to grab empty air. 

The [Dragon Blood Halberd] was still firmly in the hands of Ye Qingyu.  

“What? You want to steal it?”

The anger of the Third Princess was ignited in an instant, and her battle intent rapidly soared.

The four Dragon-Human clan experts beside her also glared at Ye Qingyu with hostility. 

“Of course not.” Ye Qingyu"s expression was cold and indifferent, “But I must make some things clear first. “I can return the [Dragon Blood Halberd] to you, but from now on, I have nothing to do with the Dragon-Human clan, and you cannot come bother me again...” 

The Third Princess impatiently interrupted Ye Qingyu when she heard this, “Regarding this, you don"t have to worry. Although I have heard a lot about the Human Race of Heaven Wasteland Domain during this period, but our Dragon-Human clan still attaches no importance to you.”

Indeed, the Dragon-Human clan had a well-respected status in the great wide world. They were the descendants of the ancient divine Dragon clan and the Human Race. In particularly, those of royal lineage had more or less inherited the incomparably pure dragon blood.

However, no matter how prestigious her status was, how could she be so arrogant and disrespectful, and her words were full of contempt for the Human Race of Heaven Wasteland Domain. Her hostility made Ye Qingyu feel that they came with bad intentions and didn"t want to a.s.sociate with them. 

In that moment, appearing in his mind was another purple-clothed girl, whose eyes were as clear as spring water under the Phoenix mask. 

They both descended from a mythological animal of the ancient G.o.d and Devil Age, but the difference between the Celestial Phoenix Maiden and the Third Princess of the Dragon-Human clan was simply like the difference between cloud and mud.

At this moment, Ye Qingyu"s eyes flashed as he came to a decision. 

“In that case, sign a doc.u.ment that indicates you"ve taken away the halberd.”

It was understandable to return the [Dragon Blood Halberd] to its rightful owner, and it could even be said to be a joyous matter, but the att.i.tude that these experts of the Dragon-Human clan showed made Ye Qingyu think that he must be cautious and make them leave behind proof just in case.  

“You don"t trust me?” The Third Princess all of a sudden put on a solemn face, frowning. 

Ye Qingyu was still indifferent and calm as before, “Of course not, this halberd is originally a sacred item of the Dragon-Human clan. I have confirmed your ident.i.ty, so it"s only right to return it to you, but the Dragon-Human clan is huge, with a large number of people. What if another prince or powerful person of the clan comes to find me after you left? Where will I find another [Dragon Blood Halberd] for them?”  

“Humph, the mind of a person of low social status!” The Third Princess grunted coldly, looking at Ye Qingyu with an even more contemptuous expression.

Ye Qingyu flipped his hand over, and a jade greed bamboo strip appeared out of nowhere, which had already recorded down in detail the fact that the Third Princess had already taken away the [Dragon Blood Halberd]. 

“As long as Third Princess sign this, then you can take away the [Dragon Blood Halberd].” 

The Third Princess glanced at the jade bamboo strip, and then back at the [Dragon Blood Halberd] with incredible excitement. She seemed hesitant, but after a few moments, finally injected dragon qi into the jade bamboo strip. 

With this evidence, whether or not the people of the Dragon-Human clan came to the door to ask for the halberd in the future, Ye Qingyu believed that it would prevent a lot of unnecessary trouble, and even conflict. 

Ye Qingyu put away the jade bamboo strip. 

At the same time, the [Dragon Blood Halberd] was returned to the Third Princess.

The Third Princess had completely put aside the fury and entanglement that she had before. 

She held the halberd, long fingers incessantly stroking the dragon whiskers on the halberd, feeling the majestic and familiar aura exuding from the halberd, and was overjoyed. 

The other three experts of the Dragon-Human clan also showed a look of joy.  

Only the previous old expert, who had had been silent all this time, was looking at Ye Qingyu with a sinister expression, saying, “Hey, Ye Qingyu, do you have anything else related to our Dragon-Human clan that you have forgotten to hand over?” 

Ye Qingyu was taken aback for a moment, then a cold expression flickered in the bottom of his eye, “What do you mean by that?” 

The old man, who had white eyebrows, as though he did not believe him continued to pester him, “What do you mean by that? Haha, what I mean is very simple. It is rumoured that you, Ye Qingyu, has received a lot of treasures in the 18th district of the Black Demon Abyss. It is hard to believe that you only got the halberd. Back then, when my ancestor died in the 18th district, he did not just lose a [Dragon Blood Halberd]. My Dragon-Human clan also had another ancestral weapon - the [Dragon Scale Armour]... Since you have the [Dragon Blood Halberd], then the scale armour should naturally also be in your hands. I suggest that you quickly hand it over.” 

“I only have the halberd, and not the scale armour.” Ye Qingyu narrowed his eyes. 

“Oh, an honest man doesn"t do anything underhanded. The person with the surname Ye, do you want to swallow the treasure of my Dragon-Human clan?” The old man laughed sinisterly. 

The people of the Heaven Wasteland diplomatic corps all immediately had a change of expression. 

Anger was surging in Yu Xiaoxing"s eyes. 

“Lord Ye has said no, your Dragon-Human clan is simply unreasonable... Old man, do you want to falsely accuse Lord Ye?” Luo Yi couldn"t help berating the old man. 

“Little thing, you have no place to talk here.” The old man"s face darkened. His eyes under the long brows were twinkling with a sinister and gloomy light. 

But the eyes of the other four experts were fixed on Ye Qingyu, seemingly unwilling to leave the matter at that.  

“That"s right, Ye Qingyu, as long as you hand over my clan"s treasure, I will forgive you once, and will not blame you for trying to swallow the treasures of my clan. If not...” At this point, the [Dragon Blood Halberd] in the hands of the Third Princess was trembling slightly, and the halberd light pointed directly at Ye Qingyu. Her tone was piercing, and there was a sinister smile on her face. 

Ye Qingyu"s expression grew icy-cold.  

“The so-called Dragon-Human clan is nothing more than this. I will give you ten seconds to get out of the Green Xuan Hall, otherwise, don"t blame me for being impolite.” Ye Qingyu warned, pinching the key token, which controlled the black bronze puppet figures.

The Third Princess burst into wild laughter, “I have the [Dragon Blood Halberd] in my hand, do you think I would be afraid of you? Ye Qingyu, you are just asking for death...”

Before her voice faded away.

There was a sudden change. 

An ancient and terrifying power of the true dragon gushed out from the [Dragon Blood Halberd] in the direction of the Third Princess like a beast pouncing on its prey. 

 “Ah! What...”  

Unguarded, the Third Princess was sent flying dozens of meters away, slamming into the wall of the main hall. 

Boom! 

A loud bang broke out in the reception hall. 

The walls, inlaid with glazed ceramic patterns, were instantly cracked. 

All of the people present were in utter and incomparable shock.
