160: Chapter 160 Human Prodigy
"Are you going to the Dragon Palace?"
A month later, Elder Hei Yan frowned and asked Yuan Chen.
As for why there was another month's delay...
This time, Yuan Chen did not intend to bring anyone other than Zixia.
With departure imminent, it was time to get some exercise.
Yuan Chen nodded; he was his brother after all, so he should say goodbye before leaving.
"Why are you suddenly bringing Yuan Yun back?"
Elder Hei Yan asked with a serious expression.
"My daughter isn't happy."
Yuan Chen said indifferently.
Elder Hei Yan's expression, however, was not very good. After hesitating for a moment, he asked Yuan Chen in a low voice.
"Is it because of those rumors within the Dragon Palace?"
Yuan Chen glanced sideways at this brother.
His expression also became serious.
It seemed he had thought too simply about this.
Even Elder Hei Yan had noticed this matter.
Then it seemed the problem was quite serious!
"What does the Dragon Clan leadership mean by this?"
Since the other party had already brought it up, Yuan Chen asked directly.
Elder Hei Yan was an Elder, after all.
He must know quite a few things.
Elder Hei Yan gave a bitter smile.
He actually hadn't paid much attention to it.
He was used to being carefree, and the Dragon Palace usually didn't call him for meetings.
It was just that when Yuan Chen's family arrived, he had asked his clansmen to help look after them.
The news had all been passed on by his clansmen.
Seeing Yuan Chen looking at him, he shook his head.
"I don't know the specifics."
"I only heard that the internal members of the Golden Dragon Clan are somewhat dissatisfied with your daughter's situation."
"You also know that although our three clans are all High-grade Divine Beast, the position of Dragon Clan Clan Chief is generally controlled by the Golden Dragon Clan."
"Previously, the new generation of the Golden Dragon Clan had no Genius, and they didn't covet the position of the Dragon Clan Clan Chief for the next few generations much; anyway, giving it to your daughter or to our Purple Dragon Clan or Black Dragon Clan was about the same."
"Furthermore, those who had a say were all Loose Cultivator who had passed the fifth or sixth tribulation; by the time your daughter grew up, most of them would have already undergone Ascension, so the rest of the matters wouldn't have much to do with them."
"They only thought about the fact that the two previous Clan Chiefs were both controlled by the Golden Dragon Clan, allowing them a safe transition."
Pausing for a moment, seeing Yuan Chen's serious expression, he continued.
"But now your daughter's Cultivate speed is too fast, and it is very likely to threaten the succession of the Five-Clawed Golden Dragon. The plans of those Elders might encounter complications."
"Therefore, they are spreading rumors, hoping your daughter won't be able to handle it and will withdraw automatically, or forcing other Elders to suppress your daughter for a period of time to make her wait longer."
Hearing this, Yuan Chen's face was already extremely ugly.
Reducing resources was fine; with him around, his daughter could quickly reach the top even without resources.
What was most excessive was that other clansmen were following his daughter around saying unpleasant things.
How old was his daughter?
How could she endure the pointing and whispering of others?
At the same time, he felt some resentment towards Clan Leader Ao Yi.
It was the other party who had begged them to go over before.
And this was the result?
The culprits were from their own Golden Dragon Clan.
Don't talk about not being able to control subordinates.
If he couldn't even control a few Elders, what qualifications did he have to be the Dragon Clan Clan Chief?
His eyes turned cold.
Perhaps Clan Leader Ao Yi had the same intention.
"Petty wretches, I don't even look highly upon a lousy Dragon Clan."
In front of Elder Hei Yan, Yuan Chen cursed directly.
Elder Hei Yan looked at Yuan Chen sheepishly.
If it were anyone else, he really wouldn't have been able to tolerate it.
But there was absolutely no problem with Yuan Chen saying that.
His background really didn't look highly upon the Dragon Clan.
He had Top-tier Divine Beast sons running all over the place.
Come to think of it, the Dragon Clan was indeed a bit unscrupulous.
He also knew that Yuan Chen was mainly cursing the Golden Dragon Clan, so he wasn't that angry.
Moreover, there was quite a bit of secret infighting among the three clans of the Dragon Clan.
In the absence of external enemies,
The Golden Dragon Clan being at odds with Yuan Chen was even a great joy for him.
He stepped forward and pretended to persuade him with a few words.
"Hey, don't say that; perhaps Clan Leader Ao Yi has his own difficulties."
When facing the outside, the three clans were like one family, but whenever they found an opportunity to cause trouble for each other, they would.
Yuan Chen looked at Elder Hei Yan indifferently.
This guy with thick eyebrows and big eyes wasn't any good either.
"Forget it, I won't waste time talking to you. They don't look highly upon my Yuan Yun, and we don't look highly upon them. I'm going to bring her back now."
"I'll have to trouble you to look after the Exotic Beast Mansion, brother."
"Don't worry, brother; I guarantee I'll take good care of your wife."
Elder Hei Yan patted his chest in assurance.
Yuan Chen opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but in the end, he spat out two words and turned to leave.
"Damn it!"
After giving instructions, he took Zixia and headed straight for the center of the Chaotic Star Sea.
Firstly, Zixia had high martial arts skills, so they could look out for each other on the road.
Secondly, having lived in the Dragon Palace for a long time, Zixia was very familiar with it and could act as a guide.
...
"Put her down! Stop it!"
They had been flying for four or five days.
The two were attracted by the sounds of battle below.
Originally, they didn't intend to interfere, but the Life Qi surged into the sky, causing both of them to look over.
"A Human Race Prodigy!"
Glancing downwards, Zixia's eyes shifted, and she said strangely.
Hmm?
Yuan Chen also stopped and curiously looked to see what was going on.
Anyone who could be called a Prodigy by Zixia would certainly not be weak.
He had heard before that the combat power of the Human Race was erratic; at the same Realm, the weak couldn't even beat ordinary Yao Beast, while the strong could pin down and beat even a Top-tier Divine Beast.
He didn't know how much ability this guy called a Prodigy had.
Since coming to this world, he had never seen a real Prodigy.
The only one he knew was his wife, but because her Realm was too low, he had never tested her real skills except in bed.
He saw two teams below.
One side had only two people, while the other side had seven... no, eight!
There was one sneaky person hiding on the edge, occasionally launching sneak attacks, and never even stepping into the frontal battlefield.
The weaker side was a man and a woman; the woman had already been caught by the eight people and was currently being carried by one of them, unconscious.
The man also seemed to have been poisoned; his body was swaying, as if he was about to collapse at any moment.
But his combat power was incredibly strong.
Even in this state, he was holding off eight people by himself without falling behind.
However, although the eight people were no match, their faces were grinning and relaxed.
One of them kept changing positions, dropping a few stones from his hand every time he reached a spot.
"Gongsun Sheng, are you done yet?"
One of them asked impatiently.
The person moving around didn't answer; after moving a few more positions, he nodded and stepped back: "It's done."
As soon as the words fell.
A small Formation appeared in the arena.
Instantly trapping the poisoned man inside the Formation.
Even with such strong combat power, he couldn't harm the eight people at all.
"Big brother, let's go. This guy is too strong; the Formation will be broken in a little while."
The person who set up the Formation suggested to the burly man leading them.
The burly man nodded, and several of them laughed at the poisoned man before running away with all their might.
"Ya-ho, Yang Zi, we'll borrow your wife for a bit."
"Hahaha, oh-ho, oh-ho."
Watching the backs of the crowd, the poisoned man pounded the Formation fiercely.
While pounding, he shouted anxiously.
"Gangzi, Gangzi!"
"Return my Gangzi!"
