Chapter 234 - The Unlucky Dragon Clan Being Schemed Against (3)
"To tell you the truth, that human is my master"s subordinate." Feng Zhan simply made things clear with Long Hao to prevent him from making wild guesses.
"Oh? Are there any other conditions?" Long Hao wanted to change the topic.
"Yes."
"What?" Why are there so many conditions? Hopefully, they won"t make things difficult for me. Long Hao prayed in his heart. He really wanted those fruits and pills.
"My master"s subordinates need contract beasts. You dragons aren"t bad. Your skin is thick and resistant to attacks, so you should sacrifice a few stinky dragons!" Feng Zhan said with a smile, his expression very amiable.
"Impossible!" Long Hao stood up from his chair angrily and looked at Feng Zhan with a face full of rage. A dragon was contracted with a human, and the Dragon clan almost had a falling out. Those elders would eat him alive if there were more!
"Dragon Emperor, since you"re unwilling, I won"t force you. Then let"s exchange for the essence restoration gra.s.s and Feng Da for the time being. If the Dragon clan wants to make other transactions, you can come to the Phoenix clan to find me at any time," Leng Ruoxue said coldly and also stood up while rolling her eyes at Feng Zhan. So, this fellow was targeting the Dragon clan when he said he would find contract beasts for her subordinates. Well, it was a good idea, but the dragons were not so easy to fool.
"Miss Leng, the essence restoration gra.s.s is no problem, but I have to discuss the matter of the human with the elders before we can decide," Long Hao said with a troubled expression.
"The mighty Dragon Emperor can"t even decide on such a small matter?" Leng Ruoxue asked with slight mockery.
"Uh… actually, that human isn"t in my hands," Long Hao said softly.
"Where then?" Leng Ruoxue pretended to be impatient.
"That human was captured by the third elder of our Dragon clan, and he has always been in the third elder"s hands." Long Hao explained that the third elder went to the Ling Feng Continent to look for his son but found that his son had actually been contracted by a human. He captured that human in the fit of anger.
"The third elder and that fire dragon…" Leng Ruoxue asked lightly while staring at Long Hao with her beautiful eyes.
"Father and son." Long Hao betrayed the third elder without hesitation and revealed their relations.h.i.+p.
"Oh, I see," Leng Ruoxue said with a face full of understanding.
"Dragon Emperor, may I meet the third elder?" Leng Ruoxue continued to ask. If she couldn"t convince that old dragon, then she would have to use force. In any case, she had to take Feng Da away today.
"Uh… sure. But the third elder doesn"t have a good temper," Long Hao reminded.
"It"s okay. My temper isn"t very good either," Leng Ruoxue said nonchalantly.
When Long Hao heard this, his face darkened. What does she mean? Is she going to use violence to curb violence? Uh, it"s not impossible. Good luck, Third Elder!
For his own benefits, Long Hao betrayed the third elder easily. After bringing Leng Ruoxue and the others to the third elder"s residence, he found a random excuse and immediately slipped away.
"Master, are we going in?" Feng Zhan asked eagerly. Beating up dragons was his favorite pastime.
"Royal Father, let me take the lead!" Feng Ling"er"s beautiful face was full of excitement. She couldn"t defeat the Dragon Emperor, but that wasn"t the case with the third elder.
"What are you doing? We"re not here to fight." Cold sweat dripped down Leng Ruoxue"s forehead. What a violent pair of father and daughter!
"Why are we here then?" Feng Ling"er was puzzled. Those stinky dragons were all very stubborn, and there was no helping them unless they beat them up.
"Of course we"re here to negotiate. We have to convince the dragon with reason!" Leng Ruoxue boasted shamelessly, her beautiful face devoid of any shame.
"Oh!" Feng Zhan and Feng Ling"er responded, but their eyes were full of disbelief.
"Stop looking at me like that. I"m a pacifist." Leng Ruoxue walked directly into the cave without looking at them.
"Human, where did you come from? How dare you trespa.s.s into my mansion!"
Leng Ruoxue heard a furious roar coming from inside the cave before she could see what was happening inside.
Mansion? Leng Ruoxue couldn"t help laughing. This old dragon is quite interesting. He actually called this shabby cave his mansion. It was really unexpected.
"Little girl, what are you laughing about?" With a displeased face, a tall and handsome middle-aged man suddenly appeared in front of Leng Ruoxue. He didn"t know why there was a human in the clan, but this girl was pretty gutsy!
"How does such a shabby cave resemble a mansion?" Leng Ruoxue asked curiously. This old dragon was indeed quite interesting. Other dragons liked their true form, but he actually appeared in human form. Did he yearn for the life of humans?
"A shabby cave is also my mansion!" the middle-aged man roared loudly while glaring at her.
Feng Zhan walked in and said with an accusing face, "Hey, Third Elder, why are you shouting? Don"t scare my master."
"Phoenix King! Huh, your master? Who is that?" The third elder was so surprised that his jaw almost hit the ground. Am I deaf? Did I just hear the Phoenix King say "my master"?
"The master he"s talking about is me!" Leng Ruoxue kindly explained. She had been thinking about how to move this old dragon. Her principle was to try not to fight if possible. But if she had to, then she would ruthlessly beat up her opponents until they became well-behaved.
"How can the mighty Phoenix King acknowledge a human as his master? Haha, I wonder if the ancestors of your Phoenix clan will be driven to their graves if they find out." The third elder burst into laughter.
"Third Elder, don"t worry. The ancestors of the Phoenix clan will definitely be very grateful to me. I"ve done a great service to the clan," Feng Zhan said nonchalantly without even frowning.
"Really? Haha! Phoenix King, did you bring this little girl in?" the third elder asked, even though he knew it all along.
"Asking the obvious!" Feng Zhan spat out these words coldly. He turned his face away, too lazy to look at the smug old stinky dragon.
"Third Elder, I heard you captured a human?" Leng Ruoxue probed to see the old dragon"s att.i.tude.
