Chapter 968: Chapter 968 An Old Acquaintance
As Azure Dragon spoke, he seemed to have realized his duty again and began to question Ye Liuyun.
"You human boy, how dare you bring Demon inside here and even try to take away the pool water! Do you know this is not allowed?"
"Xiao Qing, why are you so serious? We haven’t seen each other for so long, can’t we have a good chat? Do you know that the foreign race has grown stronger again and has occupied the south of this continent?"
Qiong Qi tried to divert the Azure Dragon’s attention again.
"My duty now is to guard the Hidden Dragon Pool. The rest is out of my hands!" Azure Dragon completely ignored Qiong Qi’s words.
"Then this should be your fault! How can you say that it’s none of your business? Have you become stupid after cultivating for so many years?" Qiong Qi tried to goad him.
"Roar!"
Upon hearing the words, the Azure Dragon let out a furious roar and exhaled a puff of breath from its nostrils, causing a gust of strong wind to blow toward Ye Liuyun and the others.
When this happened, Qiong Qi immediately took a step forward and stood in front of Ye Liuyun and the others. "Do you want to kill me?" He asked Azure Dragon after that.
Azure Dragon was stunned for a second. When it remembered that it was no match for Qiong Qi after the latter recultivated, Azure Dragon immediately took a deep breath and sucked back the gust of wind.
"It’s so strong!" Although Ye Liuyun had not been hit by the strong wind, the surrounding wind had already stung him all over.
Azure Dragon hesitated for a moment before saying helplessly, "Alright. I won’t hurt you because we once fought together. However, they must be punished!"
Then, Qiong Qi pointed at Lei Ming and Dragon Lady while reprimanding Azure Dragon righteously, "The Dragon Clan is already weak. Now there are only two descendants of the Dragon Clan on this continent. Do you really want the Dragon Clan to be buried in your hands?"
After hesitating for a while, Azure Dragon felt that he could not kill the descendants of the Dragon Clan either.
"I’ll forgive them then! It’s not their intention to come here in the first place so I can also let them go. But that kid is a disciple of this academy, and he is also the culprit. Therefore, he must be punished!"
"Hahaha!" Qiong Qi laughed all of a sudden.
"Hmm? What are you laughing at?" Azure Dragon was confused when he saw that Qiong Qi laughed suddenly.
Qiong Qi then said with a smile, "If you use your Divine Sense to check on the boy’s Ocean of Consciousness, you will know the situation. Or else, you will regret attacking him!"
Ye Liuyun immediately understood the situation too. Azure Dragon and Qiong Qi were from the same era, and they had fought together, so it meant Azure Dragon certainly knew the Universal God Token.
Azure Dragon then looked doubtfully at Ye Liuyun and muttered, "I shall take a look then. Do you think I’m afraid of him playing any tricks?!"
As it spoke, its Divine Soul rushed straight into Ye Liuyun’s Ocean of Consciousness.
As soon as Azure Dragon’s Divine Sense rushed into Ye Liuyun’s Ocean of consciousness and saw the Universal God Token, it immediately began to worship.
Later, it asked Ye Liuyun’s Divine Soul, "Why do you have the Universal God Token?"
"The token chose me!" Ye Liuyun’s Divine Soul replied to Azure Dragon truthfully.
Azure Dragon’s Divine Soul looked back at Ye Liuyun’s Divine Soul again before it let out a sigh and turned to leave.
The Universal God Token just shone on the Azure Dragon’s Divine Soul for a moment just like how it did to Qiong Qi last time then. After that, it didn’t do anything anymore nor did it restrict the Azure Dragon’s movements.
After Azure Dragon’s Divine Soul returned to its physical body, it looked at the people in front of it in a dilemma.
It couldn’t believe that it couldn’t touch any of the four people in front of it.
"Alas, forget it. All of you can go now!" In the end, Azure Dragon had no choice but to accept his fate.
"Go? Did you bang your head? You already know the situation, why do you still want to let this guy go? Don’t you know that this guy’s growth is very important? Do you want him to miss such a chance to improve his strength?"
Qiong Qi began to convince Azure Dragon again.
"Roar!"
Azure Dragon let out a roar again and flew around in the air to vent his anger. frёeweɓηovel.coɱ
However, Qiong Qi gloated and said, "You don’t have to get angry either. It’s a good thing that you’re able to help this boy!"
After that, Qiong Qi helped Azure Dragon to find a reason, "Anyway, he was just saying, he’s not actually doing it so it’s not against the rules. Can’t you just think of it as he’s joking? After all, he just wants to improve his strength as soon as possible!"
Azure Dragon indeed felt much better after hearing Qiong Qi’s words.
"You’re right. After all, he is a rare genius! It will be a pity that he was killed by me because of a joke. However, you guys still can’t enter the Hidden Dragon Pool, do you understand?!"
After Azure Dragon found an excuse, it became confident again.
"Of course! We’ll be waiting for him by the pool. We definitely won’t get into the water and make things difficult for you. You won’t have any objections toward the two descendants of the Dragon Clan waiting by the side, would you?
Azure Dragon hesitated for a while. When he felt that there was nothing wrong with what Qiong Qi said, he nodded in agreement.
"You may go in. Just soak yourself in the water will do. When you can’t absorb anything anymore, you can go out on your own!"
As Azure Dragon spoke, it went back into the pool again before disappearing.
"Go ahead, don’t worry about us!" Qiong Qi transformed back into his human form and blinked at Ye Liuyun.
Ye Liuyun could guess that the reason Qiong Qi wanted to stay by the pool was that he was trying to find an opportunity to get in the pool.
After that, Lei Ming and Dragon Lady also returned to their human forms. Then, they came to the pool after hearing Qiong Qi’s voice transmission. Yet, they didn’t enter the water.
Qiong Qi was trying to let Azure Dragon adapt little by little, and then find an opportunity to let them both get into the water.
Even if they didn’t soak in the water, they could also put their feet into the water to absorb the power.
Qiong Qi himself would also definitely take the opportunity to get some pool water before he left. As long as he didn’t go too far, he believed that Azure Dragon would probably turn a blind eye.
Ye Liuyun then did as he was told and jumped straight into the pool.
But as soon as he entered, he almost came back out again.
This was because as soon as the golden water touched his skin, it made him feel like needles were pricking him all over.
"Endure it and don’t move!"
At this time, Azure Dragon reminded him through sound transmission. freёwebnovel.com
Thus, Ye Liuyun tried his best to endure the pain. He sat cross-legged in the pool, allowing the water to drown him.
At first, Ye Liuyun was in so much pain that he felt as if countless knives were stabbing him from head to toe. He wasn’t even in the mood to think about the results of absorbing the pool water.
After some time, he finally got used to it, and the pain gradually subsided. Then, there came another tingling sensation that made him uncomfortable all over. However, he still gritted his teeth and endured it.
It wasn’t until this itchy feeling subsided that Ye Liuyun felt his body was absorbing the power of the pool water.
"This is to strengthen my physical body!"
Ye Liuyun immediately understood the use of the pool water.
He also couldn’t help but wonder how would his realm be improved just by strengthening his physical body.
However, there were more or less some benefits, so he didn’t move and continued to absorb.
Actually, Ye Liuyun’s physical body was already stronger than anyone else’s. Thus, after dipping in the golden liquid of the Hidden Dragon Pool, Ye Liuyun felt that his entire body had become light and refreshed.
Then, he took out his Raging Fire Broadsword and cut himself on his arm.
Yet, there were no marks left on his arm. Moreover, the Raging Fire Broadsword was a Divine Weapon.
He began to apply more force to cut himself in the arm again. Only after that, he could see a white mark on his arm.
