Battle Through the Heavens: I Am the Righteous Path

Inside the room, Xiao Yan sat in front of Zhu Ming and Zhu Li, his chin gently pinched with one hand and his brows furrowed.

Just now, Xiao Yan listened to the two of them talking about the Ancient Dragon Island. To put it simply, even they themselves seemed unable to return to the Ancient Dragon Island. Combined with what Huang Tian said before, that the Ancient Dragon Island had become a demon cave, there must be a connection.

"Well, that means even you can't find the space on Ancient Dragon Island now?"

"No, I found it."

Zhu Ming shook his head slightly, and Zhu Li continued.

"We have used some special means to observe the current situation of Ancient Dragon Island. To be honest, we are not able to enter with our current combat power." Zhu Li said solemnly, "Although we are not sure what happened inside, one thing is certain, there is definitely an unknown strong man lurking inside, so we hope to get help from the Tianhe Alliance."

Xiao Yan remained silent, tapping the table lightly with his fingertips.

To be honest, Ancient Dragon Island is not at the top of Xiao Yan’s current list of things to do. In fact, for Xiao Yan, the Taixu Ancient Dragon really has nothing to do with him.

Xiao Yan attaches importance to the affairs of the Eight Clans because the Eight Clans will really affect what he will do in the future, forcing Xiao Yan to pay attention to it.

The three major Dragon Island forces of Taixu Ancient Dragon who rebelled against Zi Yan were almost wiped out in the Black Horn Region before, with only one Northern Dragon King who was seriously injured and escaped with the help of the masked woman. With his injuries at that time, even if he recovered, he could not cause any big waves again. On the East Dragon Island that was close to Zi Yan, Xiao Yan had already used the power of the Tianhe Alliance to get them a place to live in Zhongzhou. Even if the kindness of the East Dragon Island in helping Xiao Yan was taken into account, Xiao Yan had already done his best.

In other words, Xiao Yan did not want to accept Zhu Ming's commission, or he had no reason to do so.

While Xiao Yan was thinking, Zi Yan spoke bluntly, leaning back in the chair, with her long legs in purple socks carelessly resting on the table, and said unhappily.

"Don't worry about them! They obviously didn't help us at all, but instead caused us a lot of trouble. Now Xiao Yan found you a place to live in Zhongzhou, how dare you continue to trouble him? And the matter of Ancient Dragon Island has nothing to do with us."

Compared to Xiao Yan, an outsider, Zi Yan, a native of the family with the blood of the Dragon Emperor, really showed no mercy to him, especially when the East Dragon Island was belatedly attacked by the three Dragon Kings in the Black Horn Region last time. Even if there was a reason, the image of the East Dragon Island in Zi Yan's heart was completely ruined.

What's more, the reason why Xiao Yan helped Donglong Island before was because of the threat from the other three dragon islands, which forced Xiao Yan to deal with the matter of Taixu Ancient Dragon. Now that the other three dragon islands are no longer a threat, Xiao Yan naturally does not need to continue paying attention to them.

After hearing Zi Yan's impolite words, Zhu Ming and Zhu Li were unable to say a word and remained silent. They knew very well that Zi Yan was harboring a grudge because of Shan Shan's departure from the Black Horn Region last time, but this matter really could not be explained. When Xiao Yan and the others almost died in the Black Horn Region, no matter what Zhu Ming and Zhu Li said, it all sounded like an excuse.

What made the two even more sad was that Zi Yan, as the Dragon Emperor of Taixu Ancient Dragon, called Taixu Ancient Dragon "they", which was enough to show that Zi Yan did not regard Taixu Ancient Dragon as her own at all.

Although Zijing, who was standing aside, remained silent, his expression showed that he quite agreed with Zi Yan's remarks.

But Zijing was raised by Xiao Yan after all, so she consoled him softly.

“Sister Zi Yan, Elder Zhu Ming and Elder Zhu Li are elders after all, so please don’t speak so rudely.”

"Humph!"

Zi Yan curled her lips and turned away. Xiao Yan tapped her head lightly, and then looked at Zhu Ming and Zhu Li. "Two elders, although Zi Yan's words are a bit rude, her core point is consistent with mine. For me, arranging accommodation for the people of Taixu Ancient Dragon is beyond my scope of work, and I don't want to interfere in the affairs of Ancient Dragon Island."

"Well"

Zhu Ming and Zhu Li's faces darkened slightly. Before they came, they had thought that Xiao Yan would not agree, but they did not expect that Xiao Yan would refuse so firmly.

Xiao Yan's words sounded very polite, but translated it means: The affairs of Ancient Dragon Island have nothing to do with me.

But, what Xiao Yan said was true. The Taixu Ancient Dragon could now stay safely in Zhongzhou thanks to the help of the Tianhe Alliance under Xiao Yan's management. It was originally an excessive request to ask Xiao Yan to help them explore the anomalies of the Ancient Dragon Island. After all, no one knew what the situation was on the Ancient Dragon Island. It was natural for Xiao Yan to refuse.

If you really want to ask whether Taixu Ancient Dragon must return to Ancient Dragon Island, it’s not the case. It’s just that Ancient Dragon Island is the hometown of Taixu Ancient Dragon after all. Unless it is absolutely necessary, they really don’t want to say goodbye to their hometown forever.

"That's it. If Taixu Ancient Dragon encounters any problems in Zhongzhou, you can come to Tianhe League for help. As for the matter of Ancient Dragon Island, please handle it on your own."

As Xiao Yan was about to stand up, Zhu Ming and Zhu Li wanted to stand up to stop him, but they didn't know what to say, and they stood there awkwardly for a moment.

After all, they are people with dignity. Let's not talk about the previous things, just the incident in the Black Horn Region, Xiao Yan and others fought to the death, and they only rushed over to help after the fight was over. Even Xiao Yan could help them settle the Taixu Ancient Dragon, which was already quite easy to talk to. If it was Zi Yan's personality, who would care about you?

Just then the door of the room was pushed open and a figure walked in. It was Yunying, the leader of the Tianhe Alliance.

"Oh, Master Xiao, you're back?" Yun Ying looked at Xiao Yan with a surprised expression, and then took out a document, "It just so happens that the matter you entrusted us to investigate earlier has already made some progress. Because it is related to the Taixu Ancient Dragon, I wanted to come and ask them, but I didn't expect you to be here too."

"Hmm? What did I ask you to do?" Xiao Yan looked a little confused and frowned slightly, "What is it?"

It's really not that Xiao Yan is forgetful. In the past two years, Xiao Yan has asked Yunying to do too many things, and he has no idea what Yunying is talking about.

"It's about your cousin."

Ok?
Xiao Yan immediately stood up and looked at Yunying in astonishment.

"Cousin Xiao Yu?"

"Yes." Yunying nodded, "To be precise, it's not just her, we also have news about the three Joyful Lords."

As she spoke, Yunying took out the document and handed it to Xiao Yan. Xiao Yan took it and looked through it carefully. His brows furrowed more and more, and finally he retracted his gaze and turned to Zhu Ming and Zhu Li beside him, and spoke in the eyes of the two people who were surprised.

“Elder Zhuming, Elder Zhuli, I’m sorry, I take back what I just said.” Xiao Yan said solemnly, “The Tianhe Alliance will lend you a helping hand regarding your Ancient Dragon Island affairs.” (End of this chapter)
