Fantasy: Ten Dragons Compete for the Throne, I, the Villain, Choose to Play it Off

“Nowadays, the Demon Pavilion and the Dragon Clan are irreconcilable enemies. The two major forces have completely broken off relations. Compared with us, the Demon Pavilion would rather see the Dragon Clan destroyed, so naturally they are willing to cooperate with us.”

"However, while the Demon Pavilion may be willing, other races may not be. No matter how much the Dragon Clan has declined, it is still one of the myriad races. In order to maintain the balance between the two sides, the myriad races are unwilling to see the Dragon Clan perish like this."

Li Qiye's gaze was deep as he looked at everyone and said calmly, "If we take action, the Demon Pavilion will naturally be willing, but the other races will not agree. Once we take action, it will inevitably cause a huge uproar, and may even sweep through the entire Nine Nether Realm. At that time, the entire Nine Nether Realm may be torn apart, which will give the Heavenly Demon Realm an opportunity."

This is also why Li Qiye has hesitated to make a move.

If not for this, the Zhou Dynasty's resources would have been enough to destroy the Dragon Clan.

First, there's the influence from the myriad races, and second, there's the Heavenly Demon Realm.

"You mean, we can't touch the dragons yet?"

Emperor Yuan frowned slightly and said with some doubt.

Now, he couldn't quite figure out Li Qiye's thoughts. Did he want to destroy the dragon clan or did he not want to take action?
Of course, he also knew that taking action against the dragon clan was not a simple matter.

As the saying goes, "a single hair can move the whole body," meaning that if the dragon race is disturbed, it will inevitably cause a conflict in the Nine Netherworld.

This is not a good thing for the entire Great Zhou Dynasty or even the Nine Netherworld.

"Of course we should take action against the Dragon Clan. Why shouldn't we? But not in the name of our Great Zhou Dynasty."

Li Qiye laughed.

The Dragon Clan is definitely going to be targeted; this has always been Li Qiye's idea.

However, how to proceed requires reconsideration; at the very least, it cannot be done in the name of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

"You mean, you want to use the Great Perfection of the Ancient Sacred Body?"

Xuanzu realized what was happening and spoke up.

The identity of the Ancient Sacred Body at the Great Completion Realm is unknown to others. If it were to be used by the Ancient Sacred Body at the Great Completion Realm, it would indeed not cause too much trouble.

Moreover, the physique and status of someone at the Great Completion Realm are enough to make all races wary, so they may not necessarily come to the aid of the Dragon Clan.

The reason for this is due to their status. If someone seeks revenge alone, they will naturally not interfere, nor would they want to offend a Great Perfection Realm Ancient Saint Body.

However, if the Great Zhou Dynasty were to take action, the situation would be different, and they would inevitably band together for mutual support.

The Great Zhou Dynasty represented the power of the human race and also the balance between the two sides.

Moreover, if the dragon race is wiped out, it will not be a good thing for all races, since they might be next.

"If it's the Ancient Sacred Body at the Great Perfection stage, then that's certainly possible."

Mo Daoren pondered for a moment and then said, "If that's the case, the myriad races won't get involved. Instead, they'll be wary and will just say it's a feud between the two sides, and they won't have time to get involved. Besides, they don't need to be enemies with a Great Perfection Ancient Sacred Body."

Li Xuanyuan nodded, but also said with some concern, "This plan is indeed very good, but can the Dragon Clan be dealt with? With your current control over the Great Perfection Realm Ancient Sacred Body, are you really capable of dealing with the Dragon Clan?"

He naturally agreed to the plan, because it would allow the Great Zhou Dynasty to remain uninvolved; however, doing so would be extremely risky.

After all, the Dragon Clan is no ordinary force. Even though they have declined now, they were once a dominant force.

The saying "even a starved camel is bigger than a horse" illustrates this point.

"Of course, I won't make a move now, but it should be soon. Based on my control over the Great Perfection Realm Ancient Sacred Body, I'll be able to make a move in no time."

Li Qiye smiled calmly, his gaze deep and unfathomable, and said, "This time, I don't expect to wipe out the Dragon Clan in one fell swoop. It would be extremely difficult to completely destroy the Dragon Clan."

"After all, this body is not mine, but it can weaken the dragons' strength, especially by disrupting their plans and preventing them from continuing to grow."

"Even if it's just delaying them for a while, preventing them from creating a physique at the Great Completion Realm, it would be a success. Of course, the best outcome would be to destroy the Dragon Clan, and we could also join forces with the Demon Pavilion." "Of course, I'll go there as the Ancient Sacred Body at the Great Completion Realm. I believe Jing Donglai will definitely agree. Even if he sees through my identity, it doesn't matter. What matters is that I've given him this great opportunity, and he will definitely not give it up."

As long as the Great Zhou Dynasty can be kept out of the fray, everything will be easy to resolve.

The Demon Pavilion and the Dragon Clan are sworn enemies. If they knew there was someone with a physique at the Great Completion Realm to cooperate with, they would definitely not refuse.

Jing Donglai was also anxious about the Dragon Clan's plan, fearing that if the Dragon Clan's plan succeeded, their Demon Pavilion would be doomed.

"That's a good idea, but you still need to be careful. Neither the Dragon Clan nor the Demon Pavilion are forces to be trifled with."

Li Xuanyuan reminded him.

He was still a little worried that something might go wrong. He didn't care about anything else, but he cared extremely much about Li Qiye's safety.

"If there is any real danger, I will definitely run away immediately. Now that I have the Heavenly Mirror, no one from the Dragon Clan can stop me."

Li Qiye said with a smile.

"Alright, but being careful won't hurt."

Emperor Yuan reminded him again.

Since the incident with the Root of Extreme Yang, the entire Nine Netherworld has returned to peace.

Of course, there were still some unrest behind the scenes, but it wasn't as sensational as before.

The Nine Netherworld has returned to normal, but naturally, nothing can remain completely peaceful forever.

Just then, in a grand hall, Li Qiye sat cross-legged, his gaze extremely firm, and said in a low voice, "The time is almost right, it's time to act."

One or two years have passed since the last incident.

His cultivation level has now reached the third level of the Void Realm, and he is only one step away from breaking through to the fourth level of the Void Realm.

After reaching the Void Realm, the increase in strength with each subsequent level is enormous, especially from the early to the middle stage of the Void Realm, which is equivalent to a major realm in the previous stage.

A booming sound rang out from Li Qiye's body.

At the dantian, spiritual energy surged like a raging ocean, crashing in all directions and creating a tremendous upheaval.

At the same time, there were also thunder and lightning, which roared and directly enveloped the entire hall.

An aura of overwhelming power emanated from it, coalescing into a vast and oppressive force.

Endless spiritual energy surged relentlessly, never giving up, and its aura grew ever stronger.

A roar!
Suddenly, as if breaking free of some kind of restraint, it exploded with a deafening roar.

A powerful aura suddenly rose, and at the same time, countless Dao patterns within Li Qiye's body began to transform, turning into the most solemn golden patterns.

The golden patterns looked incredibly majestic, sacred and inviolable, possessing a unique Daoist charm.

This is the supreme holy law!

Upon entering the mid-stage of the Void Realm, the Dao patterns and laws throughout the body will undergo a transformation.

An unparalleled opportunity arose, and dark clouds gathered, enveloping the entire Imperial Mausoleum City like a surging river.

This is the aura of an impending heavenly tribulation! (End of Chapter)
