Knock! Knock!
"Come in."
Upon entering the room, the eyes of the elder fell on a middle-aged man with long light blue hair and blue eyes. The middle-aged man is the leader of the current Aether Dragon Clan. He was around 6 feet tall. He had a muscular built body. He was wearing a black dragon Hanfu robe.
The leader was sitting in front of a table. He was reading a scroll. When the elder of the Aether Dragon entered the room, he put down the black scroll and looked at the supreme Elder.
The Aether Dragon had one leader and 7 Supreme elders. Each elder had a different responsibility. One Elder was responsible for protecting the Aether dragons and keeping outsiders from entering the other three islands. One Elder was responsible for giving cultivation lessons to the young Aether Dragons. One Elder was responsible for managing their food and clothes. Like this, all the important roles have been divided and given to 7 elders while the leader oversaw them.
"Elder Patrick, I had given you a task. Did you manage to find the possible location of that two trash?"
"Leader, unfortunately even after trying our very best we didn't find any trace of them. I believe someone must have helped them escape the Lost Pearl City. They should be somewhere in the vast Istarin Empire. And it is almost impossible for us to search the entire Istarin Empire." Given the current enormous size of the Istarin Empire, Supreme Elder Patrick didn't think it would be possible for them to search for Leo and Clara.
Sigh!
"We cannot let those two live. Their existence is a shame to our entire Aether Dragon Race. Elder Patrick, I hope you understand what I am saying." It was very easy for Lincoln to become the leader of the Aether Dragon. Under Leo's father, he has worked as a Supreme Elder for many years. It was during the time when Leo's father negotiated with the Empress, Lincoln secretly had planned to launch his plan of becoming the next leader. Over the years, he secretly managed to bring the other Supreme leaders to his side.
"I also feel the same. Unfortunately, our influence outside the Autumnming islands is very small. If both of them had run off to the Storm Isle Dynasty, then we could have done some negotiation with the Empress. Maybe we can get the Istarin Empire to help us out if we managed to make a deal with them. But I doubt the Istarin Emperor would be interested in making a deal with us." Lincoln also nodded his head in agreement.
"Did you get any news on how the royal family of the Storm Isle Dynasty is doing? Do they have any plans for the Autumnming islands?" Lincoln sounded very concerned.
The previous Empress had a very good relationship with their previous leader. Lincoln knew if the Empress had not fallen ill, then she definitely would have addressed the issue of the sudden death of their leader.
Lincoln wouldn't admit it to anyone but he was afraid. He was afraid that one day someone might come to take everything for which he had planned for years. That's why he desperately searched for Leo and Clara. Even though the chances of Leo and Clara managing to awaken their Aether Dragon bloodline were next to zero, Lincoln didn't want to take any chances.
Lincoln is aware that what they are doing has angered the Storm Isle Dynasty. It was already a fortune that the new Empress did not send them any warnings. However, this peace could end at any given moment. But he didn't regret what he was doing one bit. As Dragons, Lincoln believed that his race was superior to humans and other races. So he didn't mind treating the humans and other races who lived in the Autumnming islands as slaves.
'It would be best if we can separate ourselves from the Strom Isle Dynasty and gain independence. When that happens, no more shackles will stop me.' While Leo's father took peaceful approaches and could see both sides of the coin, Lincoln was someone who tended to do things in an aggressive style.
"Leader, these days more and more merchants are coming to the Lost pearl city. I think it's about time we think of expanding the size of the city."
"Hmm. You're right. I will think about it. For now, let's talk about........" Lincoln was interrupted by a loud Dragon Roar.
The roar had a message for every dragon who lived in Autumnming islands. To other races, this is just a normal roar but to Dragons, this was their special type of communication.
[All the Aether Dragons bring your asses to the Lost Pearl city.]
The look on Lincoln's face instantly changed. Supreme Elder Patrick also frowned.
"Who dares to act so arrogantly in my Autumnming islands? Call all the Elders. I want to see who this young dragon is."
Around 20 minutes later, more than 2,000 Aether Dragons came from the surrounding islands to meet the Dragon who had arrogantly asked them to come to the Lost Pearl city. As Lincoln and his Aether Dragon clan approached the city, he smelled blood in the air. The look on his face changed when he noticed crimson flames burning the walls. The state of the entire Lost Pearl city was in utter chaos. From the looks of it, the Aether dragons felt as if someone had released a mad berserk Dragon into the City.
Thousands of dead bodies lay around the city. The walls were destroyed and some part of it was still being burned by Crimson flame. Hundreds of houses were destroyed. Only the debris of those destroyed houses was left behind. Ignoring all that destruction, one thing caught every Aether Dragons' eyes. It was the large pool of blood behind the walls.
In the middle of the large pool of blood, there was a small mountain. But upon a closer look, all the Aether Dragons widened their eyes in shock seeing that what they considered to be a small mountain was actually a mountain of dead bodies.
At the top of the dead bodies, there was a figure whose entire body was covered in blood and was sitting while counting.
The people who came to the Lost Pearl city were running here and there, trying to escape. Trying to get as far as they could get away from this monster. Trying to find shelter and never see the face of this monster again.
Lincoln and other Aether Dragon clan members noticed two other men standing in the pool of blood. Lincoln for some reason felt that the young men who were also looking at him looked kind of familiar.
'Where I have seen this young man before?' Lincoln couldn't remember it.
Seeing that someone had dared to break their laws and cause chaos here, every Aether Dragon was angry.
"Whoever you're. This time you have offended the wrong people." The Aether Dragons became bolder after sensing that Aditya's cultivation was only Mid-3rd-order. It shouldn't be much of a problem for them to deal with someone like him.
Aditya's entire face and body were covered in blood. He looked at Lincoln. Those crimson eyes of his seem to hold no emotion in them. Just looking at those eyes, one should realize that this young man wasn't here to mess around. Unfortunately, the Aether Dragon's pride blinded them, as it has always done.
When the Aether Dragons were more than 50 meters above the ground, Lincoln signaled everyone to stop. Standing 50 meters above the ground, Lincoln and Aditya both looked at each other. The next second his eyes fell on the thousands of dead bodies. For a brief moment, he widened his eyes in horror seeing the state of these dead bodies.
Every one of them was brutally killed by Aditya. Aditya did not use crimson lightning. He did not use Crimson flame. He did not use his sword. He did not use any of his skills. Today he showered in the blood of his enemies. Today he had let his inner demon out. Today he had become the demon.
The Dragon Monarch killed every single of them of the puppets of the Aether Dragon clan with his bare hands. His hands easily tore their hands, necks, legs, and other body parts. Aditya wanted each of them to experience the pain that these slaves felt when they were hit with a lightning whip. The painful screams of the guards were heard all over the Lost pearl city.
"Hmph! Today, we must show the world what happens if an outsider messes with us." Lincoln's confident came from the fact that his Aether dragon had 10 fourth-order cultivators. He thought he could defeat Aditya with one fourth-order. But in a few moments, he would realize how naively he was thinking.
Really Thank you very much to all those who sends support with valuable golden tickets. I hope we can keep it up!!!
