Having the genes of a demon king, I never intended to be a kept man.

Arthur scratched his head: "Lord Night Song, I still don't quite understand, what does the Azure Dragon have to do with war?"

“Resources.” Bai Xueling pointed out the truth at this moment, and said calmly, “All wars, without exception, are for resources and interests. Legend has it that after the Azure Dragon died, its bones were buried on this eastern continent, which is the underground of the human continent. Its power and soul have not dissipated for hundreds of millions of years. And it is said that as long as you can obtain even a small piece of the Azure Dragon’s soul bone and inherit the Azure Dragon’s legacy, you can have the opportunity to advance to demigod.”

Demi god!

Everyone gasped.

That would be an immense temptation for any extraordinary person!

Shen Tu paused for a moment, then said, "Legends are just legends. The reason why the Azure Dragon's remains have not been excavated for so long is because no one has ever known the exact burial location... Could it be that other races have suddenly obtained some intelligence and confirmed the location?"

Xia Xiyao asked curiously, "So, Xiaoye, where exactly are the Azure Dragon's remains buried?"

Ye Ge said calmly, "It's located underground in the Kyoto Imperial Palace, in the mausoleum of the late emperor."

Many people looked surprised.

"The late emperor's mausoleum??"

Shen Tu frowned: "So, the late emperor already knew that the Azure Dragon's remains were buried there..."

"Probably so."

Although Ye Ge gave this answer, as a game player who knew the game's plot, he naturally had a definite answer in his heart.

The late emperor certainly knew that the Azure Dragon's remains were buried beneath the capital.

After the ancient war of the gods, the old gods were defeated and the Azure Dragon's physical body died. However, the soul of a god-level being is immortal. The new gods could not completely erase the Azure Dragon's soul, so they used their divine power to seal its bones and soul forever beneath this land, suppressing the Azure Dragon's remaining power.

But hundreds of millions of years have passed, and the seal that the new gods placed on the Azure Dragon has gradually loosened, allowing the Azure Dragon's aura to reappear in the world.

The late emperor was the first to discover this, and at first he was naturally very excited.

But he soon realized that this was probably not a good thing for humanity; on the contrary, it could be a catastrophe!

Because of the frail physique of humans, no one can withstand the inheritance of the Azure Dragon! With human strength, let alone control the power of the Azure Dragon, ordinary superhumans would immediately become confused and go completely insane if they got close to the Azure Dragon's remains, and would quickly die from qi deviation!

Once the existence of the Azure Dragon beneath the human land is exposed, the consequences are predictable. The weak human race will be swallowed up in an instant by the envious races that come to fight for it. At that time, the human race will become the center of the battlefield of all races, and the human people will inevitably suffer great loss of life!

In the game's storyline, the dark race launched a large-scale invasion of human territory after learning of the Azure Dragon's whereabouts.

At the beginning of this invasion war, there were a dozen or so dark races, but as the news spread, the number increased to dozens, and eventually to hundreds...

Upon hearing the news of the Azure Dragon, the allied races of the Light faction naturally desired to obtain its legacy. Thus, under the pretext of "helping humanity resist the dark races as allies," they dispatched a large army into human territory, initiating a massive battle among all races on the human continent!

Thus, the human realm was completely transformed into a battlefield where all races vied for the Azure Dragon's inheritance!

The late emperor was naturally unwilling to let such a thing happen, so he ordered people to spend over a hundred years and countless resources and manpower to build an unprecedentedly huge imperial mausoleum at the place where the Azure Dragon's remains were buried.

After the underground palace was completed, the late emperor went into the underground palace to cultivate in seclusion.

He prepared two plans. The first was to use the Blood Sacrifice Soul to break through his level and ascend to the God Realm, in which case he would have the opportunity to control the Azure Dragon's inheritance. The second outcome was that he would fail to break through and his life would come to an end. In that case, he would use his last remaining strength to make a contract with the Azure Dragon at the cost of his life, so that the Azure Dragon's aura would continue to be buried under the human land, thus preventing it from being detected by other civilizations.

At the same time, the late emperor also prepared many contingency plans. The imperial mausoleum contains an army of 1.2 million terracotta warriors, a sea of ​​soul-devouring silver, and many deadly traps.

These are all the dungeon content in the game.

This chapter's dungeon is one of the most difficult in the entire game. In the previous life, it tormented countless expert gamers to the point of near madness. The difficulty was almost insane, and no one had been able to clear it for a full six months.

Ye Ge sighed softly.

Despite all that the late emperor did, in the game's storyline, the human continent ultimately became the battlefield of the Eighth War of All Races...

In this lifetime, the plot has clearly remained unchanged, and the same thing has happened again. The dark races have discovered the presence of the Azure Dragon's aura, so they will definitely not let it go easily.

That's a chance to become a demigod...

Any race would stop at nothing to seize it.

An old minister of the Ye family placed one hand on his chest, bowed slightly, and said respectfully, "My lord, whatever is to come, all the ministers of the Ye family will always be loyal to you and at your command."

“Very good.” Ye Ge said, “However, to deal with all races, we cannot rely solely on the strength of the Ye family. We must concentrate the strength of the entire human race.”

Bai Qing said quietly, "I'm afraid Emperor Long Hai wouldn't think that way, would he?"

"That's simple," Ye Ge said casually. "Just give the human race a more clear-headed emperor."

Everyone was very surprised to hear this.

As important officials of the Ye family, those present naturally knew that the peace between the royal family and the Ye family over the years had only been a facade, and that there was a great deal of competition behind the scenes.

Everyone knows that it's only a matter of time before the royal family and the Ye family fall out again.

However, everyone was still somewhat surprised to hear Ye Ge say this himself.

Bai Qing laughed and said, "Are we finally going to make peace with the Empire?"

“It’s not that we want to settle things with the Empire, it’s that Long Hai insists on settling things with us,” Ye Ge said. “The wedding at the end of the month is just a pretext set up by Long Hai to completely wipe out our Ye family. In reality, they have already prepared a large army ready to attack at any time.”

"So that's how it is!" Li Shuying clenched her fists and said solemnly, "We have already been accommodating at every turn, yet that foolish emperor still insists on doing this! Let them come then, let them see the current strength of the Southern Territory!"

“This is actually an opportunity,” Ye Ge said with a smile.

"Chance?"

“Yes.” Ye Ge narrowed his eyes: “An opportunity to flex your muscles.”

All races are now eager to inherit the Azure Dragon's legacy.

This is a perfect opportunity to use the royal family as a starting point and show them the Ye family's latest weapons of war.

This will keep them guessing about the true strength of the Ye family.
