Dragon Clan, Lu Mingfei wants to reach a perfect ending

Chapter 185: The Undead from One Year Ago

"I haven't seen the light for a long time. It still feels as warm as before when it shines on me. I just don't know how much time has passed."

The skinny and hunched old man opened his sunken and aged eyes and spoke in a weak voice. The light shining on his wrinkled face revealed his skeleton-like figure.

He took a deep breath of the air around him, and his chest began to rise and fall rapidly. He then coughed violently, and a ball of black blood coughed out of his mouth and spilled on his heaving chest.

"Ancestor."

The middle-aged man standing nearby immediately stepped forward and wanted to support the frail old man, but the old man raised his hand and pushed the man's support away. He casually spat out the black blood foam in his mouth, leaving only his bony hands to grasp the sides of the coffin, and the whole person stood up like a thin piece of paper.

"Although I don't know how long you will live, you don't need to worry about me. Even if I'm dying, I can still stand up on my own."

With each breath, the long-dormant dragon blood once again rushed through the countless blood vessels in the body. The heart in the chest pounded, like an engine providing the body with endless power.

There was a circle of people surrounding him, including several middle-aged people and several elderly people, and their eyes were all on the old man who had just woken up.

"Well, tell me, what's the matter with waking me up? It can't be that they want me to wake up just to see if the sun is still round today."

The old man, whose body was still frail, was not as serious as imagined. Instead, he made a joke to everyone. However, no one present smiled.

"Ancestor, I am the 123rd Patriarch of the Li Family, Li Yuanming. I awakened you from the dust of alchemy because of the awakening of the Dragon King."

The middle-aged man who was about to help the old man stepped forward, bowed and spoke respectfully to the old man.

"That's what I guess. Those fortune tellers said that our already mottled bloodline would become weaker as time goes by, so you are helpless against those dragon kings."

"So which dragon king has revived? Is it the bronze and fire king that was killed by Liu Xiu of the Eastern Han Dynasty?"

The old man's golden eyes lit up silently, and a dark silver halo flowed in his pupils. His murderous intent towards the dragon clan was revealed like a sword drawn from its sheath without any concealment.

"No, or rather, not only."

Golden light also bloomed in Li Yuanming's pupils, but it was not to show his bloodline, but to resist the murderous intent unintentionally emitted by the old man in front of him.

"Okay, no need to say more, your eyes have already told me the information."

The old man stopped Li Yuanming from speaking any further. This was his first spiritual word, asking the other person's heart, and he could know what the other person was thinking by looking into his eyes. In the first glance, he already knew what Li Yuanming wanted to say.

"If so many dragon kings were to revive at the same time, there would be many disasters in the future."

"However, a thousand years later, there are still fools with naive ideas. No, I should describe him as a half-blood traitor. This half-blood is called Lu Mingfei."

The old man looked into the eyes of the people around him one by one, and another kind of verbal spirit quickly organized the information obtained from Wen Xin, allowing him to understand what was happening in this era at the fastest speed.

"Take me to find the 'Emperor' of this era. I also want to know why a hybrid who has lived for nearly three hundred years would accept such a naive idea."

Zhu Yu usually lives not in the city, but in the mountains. As the leader of all mixed-race people in China, she also receives the clan leaders or representatives of various ethnic groups from the north and south here.

"Patriarch Li wants to meet you. There is a withered old man beside him."

There is no modern communication equipment installed here, so the mixed-bloods in charge of guarding are responsible for delivering information.

But just as the half-blood in charge of guarding reported to Zhu Yu, two footsteps were heard outside.

"Please forgive me for the intrusion of the Li clan leader to visit you."

Li Yuanming's voice came from outside the door, and then a sharp wind blade blew, chopping the wooden door into pieces in an instant.

"Can I understand that you want to rebel, Patriarch Li, or can I understand that your clan wants to rebel?"

The guards were all elite half-bloods and would not allow Li Yuanming to enter directly. Moreover, she did not hear any sound from the guards, which meant only one thing: all the guards had been dealt with.

"If you don't mind being the chicken to scare the monkeys, I won't be reluctant to hold the butcher knife in my hand."

Zhu Yu stood up and slowly approached Li Yuanming step by step. When she was young, she had dealt with many such families, some of which rebelled, some wanted the position under her, but without exception, she had dealt with them all.

What Zhu Yu didn't expect was that the Li family, which had lived in peace for hundreds of years, would do such a thing today.

"Young man, you hold the knife steadily. I like that."

An old voice came from Li Yuanming's side, and Zhu Yu also focused his attention on the old man next to Li Yuanming.

But she did not feel any threat. The old man in front of her had such a withered body, which meant that the dragon blood in his body was almost exhausted, and he was about to die.

Maybe she will become like this in a few years, but now, she still holds power and authority.

"Do you think I will let you go just because I respect the elderly and love the young?"

Zhu Yu walked step by step, and the unity of words and nature expanded outward with her body as the center, allowing her to control the surrounding space to a terrifying level.

"Young man, this is quite interesting. Originally, I wanted to kill a fool like you, but now, I have changed my mind. Your words worked, so you are lucky to survive."

"By the way, remember my name, Li Shi."

Zhu Yu's golden pupils narrowed instantly, because the old man disappeared instantly in her domain, disappearing from her sight and perception without a trace.

A hand was placed on her right shoulder, and Zhu Yu turned around in an instant with an agility that did not match her age. The Jun Flame condensed in her hand and suddenly smashed behind her.

Jun Yan flew out quickly, but hit the air. The flames exploded, but no one was hurt.

"The speed is okay."

Li Shi's voice appeared behind Zhu Yu again, and Zhu Yu instantly pressed the energy gathered in the field of unity of man and nature behind her, but consistent with the previous result, there was only a ball of air behind her.

"Jun Yan."

The red jade golden pupils were burning fiercely, and the blazing gold seemed to be able to pierce through everything. The opponent's speed was faster than his own, and his domain could not be sensed, which meant that it was most likely a speed-type word spirit.

However, speed-type Word Spirits have a huge disadvantage, which is that they will definitely be around you, and you only need to use a large area of ​​Word Spirits to cover the surrounding space to make them reveal their flaws.

The huge power gathered in the field allowed Zhu Yu to expand Jun Yan to a distance of dozens of meters around her.

"Discipline."

The old voice sounded again, and Zhu Yu suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood. At the moment of releasing Jun Yan, she was forced by the precepts to suspend the release of the Word Spirit, and the surging energy backfired on her body.

"who are you?"

Zhu Yu didn't care whether she vomited blood or not, she just wanted to know who the person in front of her was.

Of course she knew about the Word Spirit Discipline, but in her eyes it was useless, because the bloodline of the mixed-race creatures in the world who possessed the Discipline was definitely not as high as hers, so the Discipline would never work on her.

In addition to Lu Mingfei at the beginning, he also used the Word Spirit similar to the precepts to force himself to stop releasing the Word Spirit.

"I know who I am, from the ancients a thousand years ago, but you no longer know who you are."

Li Shi suddenly appeared beside Li Yuanming, his golden pupils shining brightly.

"Impossible, how could a hybrid live so long!"

Zhu Yu didn't believe what the person in front of him said at all. Dragons can live forever because they have cocoons, and they will be reborn after death, but hybrids cannot. They don't have cocoons and eternal spirits, so it is impossible for them to live that long.

"Why can't I live? If dragons can live that long, then naturally hybrids can live that long too. It just comes at a price."

Li Shi was coughing, as if the high-intensity release of the Word Spirit just now had made his body even worse. He looked like he could be blown down by a gust of wind, but his withered body was like an unfallen pine tree, standing there and calmly stating the facts.

"But for me, those costs are nothing. Although I can only have a short time after waking up, at least I can breathe the air of the world where the descendants live and see what kind of world you have built."

Li Shi was speaking from the heart. He was willing to pay such a price and live in a coffin for thousands of years for part of the reason he said.

"What do you want to do?"

Zhu Yu asked again.

"Shouldn't I be the one asking you this? What do you want to do? Why do you support that half-blood named Lu Mingfei's naive and ridiculous idea of ​​living in peace with the Dragon King? Have you lived hundreds of years in vain?"

Li Shi spoke in a serious tone and loud voice, like a judge standing on a high platform.

"After so many years of fighting with hybrids and dragons, have you forgotten? Have you forgotten the essential difference between dragons and hybrids? Have you also forgotten that only one of us and the dragons can survive? Why do you believe such words like a naive child?"

"Or were you blinded by the hatred in your eyes? Because you hated a dragon king and wanted revenge, you ignored the interests of the hybrids and agreed to the request of the hybrid named Lu Mingfei?"

Li Shi saw Zhu Yu's eyes, so he could also know what Zhu Yu was thinking, but because of this, he became even more angry.

Zhu Yu was silent. Having lived for hundreds of years, she certainly understood that it was absolutely impossible for the dragon race and the hybrids to coexist peacefully. Because they were not of the same race, there would inevitably be battles between them.

But she wasn't entirely motivated by hatred;

"He is very strong, strong enough to defeat the Dragon King, and I am about to die. After I die, the hybrids will be leaderless and fall into chaos. He is the best candidate. Even though he advocates an impossible idea, I think as long as he is alive, these unrealistic ideas can be maintained."

"And his attitude towards Dragon Kings is not always peaceful. He is only peaceful towards some Dragon Kings, but for others, he is willing to become the sharp knife that stabs them."

"Naive, ridiculous!"

Li Shi interrupted Zhu Yu, and the whole room was shaking as he scolded.

"Is it just because of this that you indulge in such a ridiculous idea? Have you, the younger generation of hybrids, fallen to this extent? You have the power to surpass our technology, but you are even more cowardly. Just because he is stronger, our younger generations can continue to pass on the legacy, you choose to support such a ridiculous idea."

"Even if the hybrid named Lu Mingfei realizes this idea, if he dies, one day, the hybrids will die. If that day comes, will the hybrids who have given up their fangs and are used to living in peace with dragons still be wary of dragons? At that time, can the hybrids still be passed down?"

"We can die, but we must not die because of stupidity. There is only one path between hybrids and dragons, a path of life and death. Either they perish, or we perish. There is no third way."
