In the depths of the palace was a dark staircase that led straight to the ground. With a gentle wave of his hand, lamps lit up on both sides of the staircase, illuminating the path ahead.
Xuan She walked in front and whispered to Qinchuan, "City Lord Long Bai was originally the second son of the previous City Lord. He was not qualified to inherit the position of City Lord, but in order to protect that thing, City Lord Long Bai had no choice but to inherit the position and use his life to protect it."
Qinchuan was puzzled by Xuan She's words and asked, "Why does Long Bai need to use his life to protect that thing?"
"Because only those with the bloodline of the True Dragon can gain its recognition."
Xuan She gave Qinchuan a deep look and said, "Ever since City Lord Long Bai passed away, three thousand four hundred years have passed and no one has been able to activate it. Until today, when I met you, I saw hope again."
As they spoke, Xuan She and Qinchuan reached the bottom of the staircase. Xuan She looked at the bronze door in front of them and said to Qinchuan, "Use your True Dragon Bloodline to open this door, just like when you opened the Door of Myriad Demons. That thing is inside, waiting for your arrival."
Qinchuan gave Xuan She a subtle glance and said, "I suddenly don't want that thing anymore."
Xuan She frowned at Qinchuan's words and asked, "Don't you want to lead the Monster Race and the Human Race to rise again?"
Qinchuan sighed and said, "Of course I've thought about it, but if I die, I won't be able to continue thinking about it."
Xuan She couldn't help but fall silent at Qinchuan's words. After a while, he asked Qinchuan, "How did you know?"
Qinchuan pursed his lips and said to Xuan She, "Your attitude towards me is too warm. More importantly, the descendants of the demon race in the Pantheon of Demons were not happy to see me. On the contrary, they revealed some hostility. Although they hid it well, I still noticed it."
Originally, Qinchuan didn't have any suspicions about Xuan She. However, when he entered the Pantheon of Demons and saw the descendants of the Demon Clan, he suddenly realized that he was wrong. When the descendants of the Demon Clan saw him, they didn't show the enthusiasm of a new City Lord, nor did they show the joy of seeing their fellow Demon Clansmen. Instead, they were cold and hostile. Obviously, they had been informed beforehand and concealed their emotions well. However, Qinchuan's powerful mental strength still picked up some clues and began to suspect Xuan She's motives.
To be honest, Qinchuan really didn't want to suspect Xuan She, but the truth was right in front of him. He couldn't blindly believe Xuan She just because he was a demon!
After hearing Qinchuan's answer, Xuan She sighed and said to Qinchuan, "Since you've seen through it, I'll tell you the truth. You don't have the qualifications to succeed the position of City Lord of Demon City because you're not a pure demon. You're a hybrid between a human and a demon!"
Qinchuan nodded and said frankly, "That's true. I was originally a human, but for some reason, a dragon senior changed my blood and gave me the Dragon Bloodline."
Xuan She looked deeply at Qinchuan and said, "You're not a pure True Dragon, so I naturally have no need to be loyal to you. Therefore, I have no psychological burden to harm you."
Qinchuan smiled and said to Xuan She, "As long as the one who wants to harm me is you and not Long Bo, then I'm at ease."
Xuan She was a little surprised and asked Qinchuan, "You don't seem to be afraid at all?"
Qinchuan looked at Xuan She and asked curiously, "Do you like to say strange things before attacking your enemies?"
After hearing Qinchuan's mocking words, Xuan She's gaze on Qinchuan turned sharp. He said to Qinchuan, "I've been guarding Demon City for tens of thousands of years. I'm nearing the end of my lifespan. If I can't complete the bloodline transformation at this time and turn from a Xuan Snake to a True Dragon, then I'll die for sure. Your arrival has given me hope. As long as I devour the True Dragon Bloodline in your body, I'll definitely be able to turn into a True Dragon!"
When Qinchuan saw Xuan She's evil intentions, he had already guessed that Xuan She's after the True Dragon Bloodline in his body. Just like Night Serenity, Xuan She saved him for this reason.
However, Night Serenity and Xuan She were different. Night Serenity wanted to make a deal with him and had no intention of harming him. Xuan She, on the other hand, wanted to devour him and make him disappear from this world forever!
Qinchuan sighed and said to Xuan She, "You're at least at the peak of the Unity Stage, right? That's why you're not afraid of the True Dragon Bloodline's suppression, right?"
Xuan She sneered at Qinchuan's words, "That's right, that's right.
Once I devour the True Dragon Bloodline in your body, I'll definitely be able to break through to the peak of the Unity Stage.
Become one of the rulers of this universe!
Qinchuan nodded, "If your plan succeeds, you might really be able to become one of the rulers of this universe. But do you think I would be talking to you for so long if I didn't have any confidence in defeating you?"
Xuan She sneered, "If you had any tricks up your sleeve, you would've used them long ago. Why would you talk to me for so long?
Now that you know the cause and effect, it's time for you to die in peace! "
Xuan She attacked Qinchuan before he even finished speaking. He raised his hand and reached for Qinchuan's heart, intending to destroy Qinchuan's heart!
Qinchuan didn't retreat in the face of Xuan She's attack. Instead, he summoned the Dragon Orb and shone it on Xuan She. When the light touched Xuan She, Xuan She opened his mouth and let out a miserable shriek. His hand that was reaching for Qinchuan retracted at lightning speed!
"This is … Heavenly Light?!"
Xuan She couldn't believe it. His voice was filled with fear. He didn't expect Qinchuan to have mastered such a supreme skill!
Qinchuan pursed his lips when he saw Xuan She being restrained by Heavenly Light, "That's right, it's Heavenly Light. I am the new Dragon Lord of Dragon Valley. As a Yao with a thin Dragon Bloodline, you're most afraid of Heavenly Light. Unless you're willing to force out the Dragon Bloodline in your body, you won't be able to resist me. And once you do, you'll probably turn into ashes immediately."
Hearing Qinchuan's words, Xuan She's tone was filled with resentment, "Since you're the Dragon Lord and have mastered such a supreme skill as Heavenly Light, why didn't you tell me earlier?"
Qinchuan sneered, "I've been talking so much nonsense with you because I wanted to see if you still had any regrets. But I can see that you've completely betrayed the Yao Race!
The thin Dragon Clan bloodline in your body was probably obtained from Long Bo! "
Xuan She's expression changed drastically. Qinchuan was right, the Dragon Bloodline in his body did come from Long Bo!
