ng Ke was currently striving for the True Immortal Peak, and Bai Mo was in the middle of closed-door cultivation, attempting to break the realm.
Both of them were at crucial monts in their cultivation.
Lin Chen ca to the Hundred Calamities Sect to visit Bai Mo.
Knowing that Bai Mo was safe and sound, and valued by the sect, Lin Chen could naturally rest assured.
The Immortal Path was long; there would always be ti to et again in the future.
Lin Chen went deep into Dragon Clan territory, and with the Token that ng Shuyu had given him earlier, he finally arrived at Qinglong Palace smoothly.
After a year, Lin Chen saw ng Shuyu again.
ng Shuyu enthusiastically greeted Lin Chen.
After all, Lin Chen was an envoy of the Immortal Palace.
Even though the Dragon Clan was not under the control of the Immortal Palace, they would still give him so respect during non-conflict tis.
“Special Envoy Lin, are you alone?”
Lin Chen nodded, and briefly described the situation of ng Ke and others.
“Ms.
ng, I would like to see the Clan Chief.”
A hesitant look appeared on ng Shuyu’s face: “In an unfortunate turn of events, the Clan Chief is not currently in Qinglong Palace.”
Surprised, Lin Chen asked, “Where has the Clan Chief gone, then?”
ng Shuyu explained, “The Dragon Clan’s Holy Land will be opened in a few days.
The Clan Chief has already left for the entrance to the Holy Land, and he will preside the opening ceremony there alongside other Clan Chiefs.
If you had arrived a few days later, you may not have been able to et even .”
The Holy Land of the Dragon Clan?
Although Lin Chen was a bit curious about this matter, he knew that it had nothing to do with him, a mber of the Human Clan, so he didn’t bother to ask any further.
He just asked, “When will the Clan Chief return?”
ng Shuyu replied, “They will wait until the Holy Land closes again.
They will not be back until then.
I’m afraid it will take at least half a year.”
Upon hearing this, Lin Chen furrowed his brows.
He didn’t have much ti right now and couldn’t wait half a year.
“Ms.
ng, the Tianxuan Martial Arts Contest in the Heavenly Mystery Continent is coming up soon.
The Immortal Palace will be attending in full force this ti.
I must return before that begins.
I’m afraid I can’t wait half a year.
Could you take to et your Clan Chief?”
Lin Chen earnestly said, “I hope to have a face-to-face talk with your Clan Chief, as it concerns the future of the Immortal Palace and the Dragon Clan.”
ng Shuyu hesitated for a while, “Fine, I can take you to see the Clan Chief outside of the Holy Land, but you can’t interfere with the matters of the Sacred Mountain.”
Lin Chen breathed a sigh of relief and smiled, “Of course, the Dragon Clan’s Sacred Mountain is a matter of the Dragon Clan.
I won’t ddle unnecessarily.”
“Good, rest tomorrow and let’s set off the day after.”
“Sure!”
The next day, ng Shuyu led Lin Chen out of Qinglong Palace and boarded a massive flying boat.
All the people chatting on the deck set their focus on Lin Chen.
Among them, a tall middle-aged man furrowed his brows and asked, “ng Shuyu, who is he?”
ng Shuyu answered, “Lin Chen, a special envoy from the Immortal Palace.
He needs to see the Clan Chief.”
The middle-aged man frowned, “A Human Clan mber heading to the Dragon Clan’s Holy Land?”
ng Shuyu responded, “In an ergency, one must do what they must.
I will explain to the Clan Chief.”
The middle-aged man appeared disgruntled but refrained from speaking further.
ng Shuyu took Lin Chen to a cabin and arranged a room for him, right next to hers.
Lin Chen asked, “The man who was speaking earlier seems sowhat dissatisfied with you?”
ng Shuyu calmly responded, “The Clan Chief is getting old and plans to appoint a new junior Clan Chief.
That man is one of the contenders: ng Ziyuan.
He is unhappy with because I support ng Yijie, and they are both leading competitors.”
A junior Clan Chief, that’s essentially a crown prince.
In the annals of history, the struggle for the crown prince and throne has always been brutal.
It seems the intensity of this Junior Clan Chief contest won’t be any less fierce.
“How is your Junior Clan Chief chosen?
Is it decided by the current Clan Chief or the senior managent of the Dragon Clan through voting?
Is it determined by whose supporter base is larger, or simply by strength, with the strongest as king?”
ng Shuyu replied, “Whoever gets the approval of the Ancestral Dragon will be the Junior Clan Chief.”
“The Ancestral Dragon?”
Curious, Lin Chen probed, “How can one get its approval?”
Explaining, ng Shuyu said, “The spirit of our Ancestral Dragon resides within the Dragon Clan Holy Land, along with the remains of the Ancestral Dragon.
Whoever enters the Dragon Clan Holy Land and gains the approval of the Ancestral Dragon’s Spirit can beco the crown prince of the Azure Dragon Clan.”
Chuckling, Lin Chen asked, “As far as I know, the Dragon Clan has many branches.
Don’t you need to compete?”
“Of course we need to compete!”
A fierce gleam flashed through ng Shuyu’s eyes, “Each clan sends a team to participate in the banquet of the Ancestral Dragon.
The Ancestral Dragon sets up assessnts.
Every participant uses their own thods to earn the Ancestral Dragon’s approval.
Whoever gets the approval of the Ancestral Dragon will naturally receive major cultivation when they return to the clan.
Their future is limitless.”
Curious, Lin Chen promptly requested clarification, “A banquet?”
ng Shuyu nodded, “Yes, a banquet.
All Dragons entering the Holy Land may participate, but what benefits one can obtain depend on personal ability.
Don’t underestimate everyone just because they are of the Dragon Clan.
When it cos to real competition, it is ruthless and extrely fierce.”
Curious, Lin Chen asked, “Does the Ancestral Dragon always stay in the Holy Land, never thinking of going out?”
