At dawn, the sun in the Dragon Clan space rose, and it looked bigger, brighter, and hotter than the sun in the Xuanwu Continent.
In Longdu, too many people were staring at the Dragon Palace where the Dragon Emperor lived, waiting for news of the competition to arrive.
This competition is between nine princes, and it is also the most exciting competition of Taikoo Xulong since Long Zhentian became the crown prince a thousand years ago.
Because this competition may be related to the change of the crown prince's position.
Over the years, the maternal power behind the prince has been declining. The prince is self-righteous and short-sighted, which makes the Dragon Emperor very disgusted. In addition, the other eight princes, each of them has their own magical powers, and each of them has set up their own factions, showing their extraordinary energy.
Long Zhentian felt threatened and therefore resorted to the ancient agreement between the Primordial Void Dragon and the Fire Phoenix and Ice Phoenix tribes to go to the Fire Phoenix tribe and ask for marriage from the Fire Phoenix Queen.
Originally, his marriage proposal should have been a sure success. With the agreement in hand, the Fire Phoenix Clan dared not violate it. However, who knew that something went wrong halfway through. It turned out that Queen Xiang Yixiu was the person Ye Xiangyang loved.
In the battle with the Fire Phoenix Clan, Long Zhentian suffered heavy losses, which made Taikoo Xulong lose face and triggered a backlash from all the forces within Taikoo Xulong. There was a chorus of opposition to Long Zhentian.
It was at this time that Long Zhentian went to the ghost clan, hoping that Emperor Long Yuxuan could suppress Ye Xiangyang. However, Long Yuxuan was injured by Ye Xiangyang, and Long Zhentian suffered a setback once again.
The ancient virtual dragons are the most proud race, and they have the bad temper of the dragon clan who is obsessed with face.
Long Zhentian failed again and again, bringing shame to Taikoo Xulong time and time again, and even the three supreme elders became angry.
Some of the ten elders also had opinions.
In this situation, the Dragon Emperor secretly said: Whoever wins this prince competition will be the crown prince.
This sentence was shocking enough. Everyone knew that the Dragon Emperor had also said that as long as the prince had the cultivation level of an emperor, he would give up the throne of the Ancient Void Dragon to him.
With the Dragon Emperor's words, the matter became extremely serious.
You must know that whoever wins the prince competition will be able to ascend to the position of the new Dragon Emperor of the Ancient Void Dragon.
Think about it, if a family or a force can get the support of the Dragon Emperor, what a concept that would be. Wouldn’t it be a straight line of rise to prominence
Based on this, the entire Dragon City and the entire ancient virtual dragon race have their eyes fixed on this prince competition.
The sunlight shines on the huge Dragon Emperor Palace. The golden glazed tiles of the Dragon Emperor Palace reflect bright light, making the entire Dragon Emperor Palace surrounded by a golden atmosphere. All kinds of rare treasures are dazzling, making the Dragon Emperor Palace become like a dream.
Ye Xiangyang followed the Fifth Prince, with Hei Chuang and ten other throne masters behind him, and came to the Dragon Emperor Palace.
In front of the palace gate, the eldest prince looked at Long Yuntian and smiled slightly: "Fifth brother, you are very clever. You invited helpers and killed your men without caring about your face. What a clever trick."
Long Changtian waved his gold-sprinkled paper fan and said, "Brother, I don't know what kind of devil Fifth Brother has been possessed by. We agreed to compete in martial arts, but inside the Shenlong Pavilion, his guest official actually killed Long Binghuo in front of me. Fifth Brother must have someone to rely on."
Prince Long Zhentian looked at Long Yuntian and said, "Fifth brother, as long as you agree to my conditions, I can still protect you. This is the last chance."
Long Zhentian walks like a dragon and steps like a tiger, and now he is still the prince.
Long Yuntian bowed to the prince and said, "Your Highness, I don't have any thoughts, and I don't want to get too involved in politics. Please forgive me for this."
To reject the prince in person would be to offend him and humiliate him.
Long Zhentian was not a man of broad mind. He smiled coldly and said, "In that case, Fifth Brother, you should take care of yourself."
People could see that three of the eight powerful princes had opinions about the fifth prince, and the fifth prince was pushed to the cusp of the storm.
With a creaky sound, the tall gate of the Dragon Palace opened.
A group of people serving in the palace stood respectfully inside the gate of the Dragon Emperor Palace.
Someone sang: "Welcome to the Crown Prince, and all the princes to the Dragon Palace."
In the Dragon Emperor Palace, there is a building every three steps and a pavilion every five steps. The corridors are winding and full of intrigue. The tall and majestic palace is decorated with all kinds of magical treasures, making the Dragon Emperor Palace as beautiful as a fairyland.
Ye Xiangyang couldn't help but sigh in his heart, it was said that the ancient virtual dragon was very wealthy, he didn't believe it at first, but now it seems to be true, the architecture of the Dragon Palace is breathtaking.
After walking through palace walls and passing through moon gates, we arrived at the square of the Dragon Emperor Palace.
The square faces south and there is a high platform on the north side. On the platform are imperial tables and chairs with carvings of dragons and paintings of phoenixes. Fourteen people are sitting behind the tables and chairs. In the middle is the Dragon Emperor of Taikoo Xulong. On both sides of the Dragon Emperor are the ten elders of Taikoo Xulong, as well as the left and right prime ministers and the Grand Marshal of the Ministry of War.
All these people are emperor masters. Ye Xiangyang feels a powerful aura that rushes straight to the sky and earth, overwhelming the universe and making the heaven and earth submit, rushing towards them.
These people are here, they are the sky, they are the earth, and they are the controllers between heaven and earth.
Endless time and space enveloped them, and layers of Heavenly Emperor space surrounded them, making them feel like a dream, yet strangely real.
The Immortal King in heaven and the Dragon Emperor on earth. The Dragon Emperor is a powerful figure who truly controls life and death, fortune and disaster in the world. He is a first-class master of the immortals who has led the ancient virtual dragon for tens of thousands of years.
Facing the Dragon Emperor, Ye Xiangyang felt that he dominated the world and was the only one who was supreme. All living beings submitted to him and the heaven and earth worshipped him.
Indeed, every major force is unfathomable. Who knows how deep the true strength of the ancient virtual dragon is
Nine princes stood in the audience, each with his own seat and a place for their guests. But it was not time to take a seat yet. The ancient dragon was very particular about etiquette.
The Dragon Emperor looked at his nine sons with unprecedented tenderness in his eyes. He couldn't help but be happy. Eight of his nine sons were promoted to emperors. This was a earth-shaking event no matter where they were, and it was a happy event that made people feel excited.
If time wasn't urgent, the Dragon Emperor would have wanted to send out invitations and celebrate in a grand manner.
Time does not permit, the prince's competition is today, and the invitation can only be discussed later.
The Crown Prince was in front, and the other princes followed the Dowager according to their age, and came to the bottom of the high platform. Behind them were the guest guards: "Greetings to the Emperor, long live the Emperor!"
The nine princes spoke in loud and uniform voices, as if they had been trained.
The Dragon King smiled broadly and said, "Stand up, and return to your seats."
The Dragon Emperor's voice was not loud, but it carried with it a majesty that commanded heaven and earth, and it directly shocked people's hearts.
"I obey your command."
After the nine people completed the formalities, they returned to their seats.
The Right Prime Minister was an old man in his sixties with a fiery red face and a red dragon horn on his forehead. "My dear princes, today is the day for us, the Ancient Void Dragon, to test the princes."
"We all know that every prince is of the Dragon Emperor's bloodline and has a noble status. Especially in recent days, the princes have been promoted to Emperor masters one by one, which is really cause for celebration. The Dragon Emperor has ordered that every prince who is promoted to Emperor will be crowned as a king."
“The eldest prince, Long Leitian, was named the Thunder King; the crown prince, Long Zhentian, was named the Gold King; the third prince, Long Fengtian, was named the Wind King; the fourth prince, Long Wutian, was named the Wood King; the sixth prince, Long Changtian, was named the Earth King; the seventh prince, Long Kongtian, was named the Sky King; the eighth prince, Long Cangtian, was named the Ice King; the ninth prince, Long Liangtian, was named the Fire King.”
"The Dragon Emperor has ordered that these princes enjoy the salary of princes. I decree this!"
Wow! Eight princes stood up, each with excitement on their face. Before being crowned as kings, they were just princes. After being crowned as kings, they would have their own territories and be in charge of the territories, and they would be overlords.
It would be best if he could become the crown prince. If he cannot, he is also a powerful figure. Now that the title has been announced, it means that in his father's mind, he has already decided where his fiefdom will be.
Long Yuntian also quickly stood up with his brothers and saluted the Dragon Emperor again: "Thank you, father. Your grace is so great. We are deeply grateful to you."
The Dragon King chuckled and raised his arm in the air: "Get up, get up. There is no need for empty formalities between us father and son. The most important thing is for you brothers to be harmonious and work together for our Ancient Void Dragon."
"Remember my father's teachings and never forget them!"
These people answered in unison that, in fact, the grudges between them were long-standing and it was impossible to resolve them. In front of the emperor, everyone behaved humbly and filially, and could not show their shallowness.
The Dragon Emperor smiled slightly, looked at Long Yuntian and said, "Old Fifth, you have been obsessed with alchemy over the years. Alchemy is also a great way. Take Ye Xiangyang from Xiangyang City. He relied on the alchemy that shocked the ancient and modern times to recruit people, open up new territories, unite and disrupt the continent. This person has unruly talents and is a person favored by God."
"Old Fifth, don't feel any worries. When you become an emperor, you will also be made a king. You have to take care of yourself."
When Long Yuntian heard his father's words, it touched his heart deeply.
His mother was a humble palace maid with no maternal power at all. He had been bullied by his brothers since he was a child, and every time he was bullied, he was the one who got punished.
From that time on, I learned to be tough. Later, the princes were able to receive training from the maternal forces, and I had no choice but to devote myself to the path of alchemy.
He thought that his father didn't understand him. Judging from what happened today, he seemed to have wronged his father.
"Don't worry, Father. I will work hard and live up to your expectations."
After saying that, Long Yuntian sat down.
The eight princes were crowned as kings, and the guests under them were all very excited. The master was able to expand the territory and be crowned as a king or a marquis. No matter how the power within the Ancient Void Dragon changed, the master would not have any problems.
As long as you follow your master, you can live the life you want.
Based on this, these people were extremely happy. If they were not in front of the Dragon Emperor and his companions, they would probably kneel down to congratulate him.
