177: Chapter 177 What are you laughing at?

There are many weak races within the borders of the Dragon Domain.

If external enemies were to attack, they could at least show off their loyalty in front of the Dragon Clan.

Although, for so many years, they had never seen anyone come to the Dragon Clan to stir up trouble.

But now that the Dragon Clan was in internal turmoil, there was nothing they could do but hide in their homes.

No matter who they helped, they would be the ones to suffer in the end.

During the period before the battle ended, they even saw various powerful auras rushing toward the center of the Dragon Domain.

Suddenly, they didn't even dare to show their Faces.

One by one, they activated their clan-protecting formations.

Although it was completely useless against the great experts.

But it was at least some form of psychological comfort, right?

"Hahaha, it really is the Black Dragon Clan fighting the Golden Dragon Clan. Satisfying, so satisfying!"

"Brother Elder Hei Yan, I've long found the Golden Dragon Clan unpleasant. Tell me, why did you only make a move now?"

"Exactly, beat them hard! By the way, who is that woman?"

"It seems to be Zixia from the Purple Dragon Clan, but how did her strength become so great? She can actually intervene in the battle between Elder Hei Yan and Great Elder Ao Yin."

"Hey, isn't that your Mingwang Sparrow Clan's son-in-law? I seem to have seen him on a flyer, but wasn't it said that he was just a young Golden Core brat? His combat power isn't weak either. Could he also be an old monster in hiding?"

"It really seems to be him, but he definitely isn't an old monster."

Clan Leader Ao Yi did not make a move; he was busy with Yuan Xiao from the Silver Dragon Clan, continuously blocking the other tribesmen.

As the Clan Chief of the Dragon Clan, he was the one least willing to see the Dragon Clan split apart.

When the time came for Ascension, no one would blame the Grand Elder; it would all be pushed onto him, saying that he, the Clan Chief, was incompetent.

After all, the Dragon Clan would have split under his watch, and all the Elders only played an auxiliary role!

He had noticed the arrival of the other races when they first arrived.

How bitter! How bitter!

All their neighbors had come to watch the Dragon Clan make a fool of themselves.

"Yo, isn't that the Five-Clawed Golden Dragon from the Dragon Clan, Young Master Ao Xing?"

Just then, the people above also noticed the pitiful-looking Young Master Ao Xing at the corner.

A middle-aged man with a large mouth shouted teasingly.

Clan Leader Ao Yi knew this person.

It was none other than the Second Elder of the Swallowing Frog Clan.

The Swallowing Frog Clan, like the Dragon Clan, was one of the top forces in the Chaotic Star Sea, and their relationship with the Dragon Clan was not very good.

Seeing the Dragon Clan in internal turmoil, they were naturally happy.

The Dragon Clan was located in the best area at the center of the Chaotic Star Sea.

There were ten top forces in the Chaotic Star Sea.

The Dragon Clan alone was surrounded by four of them.

One in each of the four cardinal directions.

Except for the Ming-King Sparrow Clan, with whom their relationship was indifferent, the other three were hostile forces.

Previously, because of Yuan Chen, their relationship with the Ming-King Sparrow Clan had been quite good, but that seemed to be gone now.

Clan Leader Ao Yi ignored him, thinking of ending this farce quickly.

But the Second Elder of the Swallowing Frog Clan continued.

"What happened here? Broken leg? Is that a plaster cast?"

His tone was full of schadenfreude.

He was clearly still talking about Young Master Ao Xing.

Clan Leader Ao Yi was furious.

Young Master Ao Xing could be considered the Face of the Dragon Clan; how could he let someone mock him like this?

However, he glanced over in that direction.

It really did look a bit like one.

But... I can think it looks like one, but can you say it out loud?

"Senior, please show some restraint with your words."

Even if they were hostile, he still had to maintain appearances.

The other party was over a thousand years older than him, so respect was still necessary.

But he, as the Clan Chief, was no pushover.

If the other party mocked them again and again, the Dragon Clan would not be afraid to have a go at them.

...After the internal turmoil.

As expected, although the Second Elder of the Swallowing Frog Clan curled his lips in disdain, he did not say anything more, out of respect for Clan Leader Ao Yi's Face.

"Great Elder, Ninth Elder, stop."

Clan Leader Ao Yi still valued the Dragon Clan very much.

Seeing everyone gathered to watch the show, he felt very stifled.

Gritting his teeth, he stood directly between Great Elder Ao Yin and Elder Hei Yan.

He could not let outsiders watch them make a fool of themselves.

When Great Elder Ao Yin and the others saw Clan Leader Ao Yi intervene, they hurriedly stopped at the same time to avoid accidental injury.

Even if Elder Hei Yan had been sarcastic before, it was out of dissatisfaction with Great Elder Ao Yin; thanks to his upbringing, he still held the position of Clan Chief in high regard.

Seeing Clan Leader Ao Yi block them, he stopped immediately.

Of course, more importantly, he did not want to continue fighting in front of outsiders.

Clan Leader Ao Yi's intervention provided them with the perfect opportunity to stop.

"Stop!"

After two seconds of silence, the Grand Elder looked at the crowd watching the show and also shouted loudly.

The voice instantly spread across the entire battlefield.

All members of the Dragon Clan trembled, and when they looked back, they saw that the two Elders had already stopped.

They also put down their weapons at the same time.

They just looked at their opponents vigilantly and stood with their own clansmen.

To prevent another outbreak.

"Sigh, if we had known, we wouldn't have come. Just because we arrived, look, they stopped fighting."

"Who says otherwise? It's a pity."

"You can't say that either. If we hadn't come, we wouldn't have been able to watch this good show."

"Makes sense. Look, you can't have it both ways. How annoying!"

The experts muttered leisurely in low voices.

However, their Faces were filled with smiles.

Judging from the battle scene, even if they hadn't come, nothing much would have come of the fight.

They had been fighting for so long, and not a single person had died.

After all, they were of the same clan, so they still held back when they attacked.

The most miserable one was the Second Elder of the Dragon Clan.

Right... are they still fighting over there?

"Yuan Chen, can't you hear the order to stop? Hurry up and stop!"

Hearing the voice of Second Elder Ao Ni, everyone looked over together.

They saw that the Puppet had actually beaten Second Elder Ao Ni back into human form, and was currently holding him by the waist with one hand.

Its knee was pressed against the other's stomach.

Its other hand was raised, then fell, raised, then fell.

Slapping Second Elder Ao Ni's bottom, pa pa pa.

And with every slap that landed, Second Elder Ao Ni spat out a portion of essence, and his body grew a fraction more withered.

Being humiliated like this, Second Elder Ao Ni had already given up struggling.

The opponent's Physical Body was too strong; he was locked tight.

"A Puppet!"

An Elder of the Ming-King Sparrow Clan said with a grave expression, spitting out the two words coldly.

Just a moment ago, the scene was chaotic, and they had only seen Second Elder Ao Ni being brutally beaten by a powerful expert.

They had been wondering where the helper came from.

Now, looking closely, it was actually a Puppet.

There were probably no more than five such powerful Puppets in the entire Cultivation World, right?

And they were all within Artifact Refining Sects.

How could there be one here?

The others also had grave expressions.

Great Elder Ao Yin, however, had a cold expression.

"Yuan Chen, tell it to stop."

Everyone was shocked.

This thing belonged to Yuan Chen?

The Ming-King Sparrow Clan Elder looked deeply at Yuan Chen.

Was it his?

Recalling the news they had received earlier, Yuan Chen had married the Young Miss of the Chi Family.

Could it have been borrowed from the Chi Family?

But did the Chi Family value Yuan Chen that much?

But then thinking about the importance the Clan Chief placed on Yuan Chen.

It was not impossible.

"Hmm, I forgot."

Yuan Chen nodded indifferently, then directly put the Puppet away.

Second Elder Ao Ni's body relaxed; he looked at the crowd in humiliation, then, without saying a word, ducked behind Great Elder Ao Yin.

A lifetime of reputation was ruined in an instant.

Just as he stood still, he glared at the Golden Dragon Clan Elder next to him.

"What are you laughing at?"

"??? I wasn't laughing!"

The scolded Elder was stunned; in order to maintain the seriousness of the occasion, he had kept a straight Face from beginning to end.

"Oh, I saw wrong."

Second Elder Ao Ni replied indifferently.

The scolded Elder: "..."

Damn, is he crazy?

Just then, Second Elder Ao Ni's voice rang in his ear again.

He saw Second Elder Ao Ni staring at another Elder.

"What are you laughing at?"

"..."
