Myth Card Supplier: Nezha the Third Prince.

Chapter 577 The Candle Dragon's Request! (Seeking monthly votes)

"what?"

Hearing Lao Jun speak, Jiang Yuan was taken aback and turned to look at Lao Jun with some surprise.

Not only him, but even Nezha and Bixiao, the two slow-moving creatures trapped in the time field, had their eyes drift over and their heads slowly turned.

Qiongxiao, Yunxiao, Zhao Gongming, Shiji, and Jinwu all suddenly turned their heads to look at Laozi.

Laozi, holding his whisk, nodded with a gentle smile: "That's right, it's Zhulong."

"Zhulong, Zhujiuyin!"

"hiss!"

Hearing Laozi's affirmation, Jiang Yuan couldn't help but feel a chill run down his spine.

"No, he..."

"Ask him, isn't he right in front of you?"

Lao Jun seemed to already know what Jiang Yuan wanted to ask, so he pointed his whisk directly at the vertical eye in the spatial rift.

Let Jiang Yuan ask the person in charge.

Jiang Yuan nodded slightly, then looked at the vertical eye in the spatial rift.

Jiang Ming's back stiffened slightly, and he was a little nervous.

Don't be fooled by the fact that he has already created powerful figures like Nezha, Zhao Gongming, Shiji, Jinwu, the Three Immortal Maidens of Sanxiao, and Laozi.

But these are all Kalings he created, not the real Kalings.

It's even uncertain whether there was a primordial world at all.

Even if they themselves exist, they might not know about this.

Unbeknownst to them, Jiang Yuan used their abilities to create a "copy," which then lorded it over others in another world.

But now Jiang Yuan knows.

They might not know about the Kalings they created, but the primordial world seems to really exist.

Jiang Yuan was somewhat flustered when facing Zhulong, who was considered a powerful being in the prehistoric world.

"Excuse me, may I ask...?"

Jiang Yuan spoke cautiously, but was interrupted by Zhulong before he could finish.

"You don't need to worry so much. I came here to ask you for a favor."

"You say."

Jiang Yuan frowned slightly, already having a vague guess in his mind.

Could Zhulong have come for Ao Zhu?
However, Lao Jun, who was standing to the side, secretly pursed his lips after hearing Jiang Yuan's address to his master.

You brat, you've never been this polite to an old man like me before!

No, we were polite to each other.

He was polite when he asked me to refine the elixir.

Jiang Yuan did not notice Lao Jun's subtle expression, as all of Jiang Yuan's attention was focused on Zhulong's eyes.

“I came here for him.”

Zhulong glanced at Aozhu beside him, and Aozhu was also somewhat flustered.

Could it be that Jiang Yuan wasn't the only one who tried to kill me?
When did I provoke such a terrifying being?

Ao Zhu could clearly sense how terrifying the savage aura emanating from that spatial rift was.

The feeling emanating from just that one eye was as if I had once faced Ao Runzhi.

It should be noted that Ao Runzhi's strength is extremely terrifying.

Having reached the mid-stage of the twelfth realm of the Wood-Splitting Realm, he is undoubtedly a powerful figure among all races.

The other person's mere glance made him feel as if he were facing Ao Runzhi.

When did I offend such a powerful figure with terrifying influence?

Judging from the move just now, the opponent has a control over space and time.

Could it be that some powerful figure from the Western Dragon Clan learned of my desire to unify the Dragon Clan through spatial abilities?

Is it because he disagrees that he wants to kill me?
But even if he wanted to kill me, wouldn't it be the same if Jiang Yuan killed me or he killed me? Why did I have to stop Jiang Yuan?

Could it be that they want to capture him alive and parade him through the streets as a public spectacle?
Ao Zhu was filled with anxiety, but escape was definitely out of the question.

Even without this terrifying big shot, he couldn't escape the cage that Jiang Yuan had created specifically for him.

What I had just felt as familiar and close has instantly turned into fear and panic.

If the other party hadn't just called him out by name, he would probably still be cowering like a turtle, too afraid to utter a sound.

But now it's all over. I can't run away, and I can't be a tortoise anymore.

How to do this?
"What do you mean?"

"Snapped!"

Seeing Jiang Yuan in this state, Lao Jun couldn't bear it any longer and directly struck Jiang Yuan on the back with his whisk.

"Don't worry, this old man won't have any effect on you."

"He cannot travel through the entire space to come to your world, so just do as you please."

As Lao Jun finished speaking, Jiang Yuan turned around and looked at Lao Jun with some surprise.

Laozi, how can you be so brave?
Do you think you are the original entity?

However, it is undeniable that after Laozi said that, Jiang Yuan's heart actually calmed down.

The vertical eye in the spatial rift clearly showed some helplessness, but there was nothing it could do.

Since Laozi said so, the voice coming from the spatial rift also provided an explanation.

"That's right, just as he said, I can't travel through space to come to this world, and I can't have any effect on you either."

"So I came here this time just to ask you for a favor."

"What do you want to ask of me?"

Jiang Yuan felt more confident after hearing what the other person said, so he asked directly.

"If I can do it, I can promise you; if I can't, please forgive me..."

Jiang Yuan didn't finish speaking, but Zhulong clearly understood what Jiang Yuan meant.

"It's okay, you can do it."

Zhulong quickly spoke up, noticing Jiang Yuan's frown, and before Jiang Yuan could speak again, he said directly.

"I want to beg you not to kill him, is that alright?"

"It seems a bit unsuitable."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Yuan realized that it was indeed the case.

The other party wouldn't come to the temple without a reason; their purpose in coming was to persuade me to let Ao Zhu go.

But how is this possible?

"I can't let him get away with this."

Jiang Yuan shook his head slightly, and out of respect for Zhulong, he offered an explanation.

"The dragon race is now split into two dragon races, the Eastern Dragon Race and the Western Dragon Race. The Eastern Dragon Race is close to our human race, while the Western Dragon Race is close to our human race's mortal enemy, the Demon Race."

"This can be considered a balance. If he really wants to unify the dragon race, the balance will be broken."

“There is no real trust between races, only wariness and vigilance.”

"Once they truly unite, the dragons will become a potential enemy of humanity."

"Furthermore, once the dragon races of the East and West are unified, their strength will skyrocket, and they will most likely become the strongest first-order race, just like the angels and demons."

"For the sake of humanity, I cannot allow him to have the opportunity to unify the dragon race."

"This is a problem that cannot be solved."

Jiang Yuan shook his head slightly, while Zhulong looked completely bewildered.

He simply couldn't imagine that such a small world could have so many races.

Humans and dragons go without saying.

But the demons have also appeared?

I wonder if this is the same demon race I have in mind. Besides humans, dragons, and demons, there are also two races I've never heard of: angels and demons.

Even though he had never heard of it, Zhulong understood what Jiang Yuan meant.

After the dragons unify, the human race will not only lose an ally, but also an ally in the fight against the demons.

And there will be one more enemy.

Under these circumstances, let alone Jiang Yuan, even if it were him, he would not agree to the unification of the Dragon Clan.

"Is there any solution?"

Zhulong spoke, and Aozhu's brain started working rapidly.

If you can live, who would want to die?

If there is a solution, then it seems that this big shot really can protect himself.

Even if, as he said, it cannot affect the world, it cannot affect Jiangyuan.

But you can tell just by looking at Jiang Yuan.

If a suitable solution can be found that Jiang Yuan agrees to, he might actually let me go.

Moreover, if the solution is perfect, he might be able to continue his plan to unify the dragon race.

Thinking of this, Ao Zhu's brain began to spin rapidly.

Dead brain, think quickly!
Now's the time to use you!

"Although my physical body cannot reach you and therefore cannot have any effect on you, but..."

Zhulong's sudden words immediately put Jiang Yuan on alert.

However, he soon felt relieved.

"But there is a way to bring my abilities, or some of my combat power, into your world."

"Invoking a deity?"

Hearing what Zhulong said, Jiang Yuan breathed a sigh of relief, tilted his head slightly, and tentatively asked.

"Exorcise the spirits!"

Before Zhulong could speak, Laojun behind Jiangyuan spoke up.

"Yes, exorcising spirits."

Zhulong nodded slightly: "The uncertainty of summoning immortals is too great. I'm not sure if you can find me."

"But exorcising spirits is different."

"I can leave you a trace of energy. Keep this energy safe and use it when you use the Exorcism ability. Then I will be able to sense that you are summoning me."

"If you don't kill him, I can help you three times."

"But I may not need your help."

After Zhulong finished speaking, Jiang Yuan shook his head slightly: "Although summoning gods is more stable than summoning immortals, the strength that the summoned gods can exert is related to my cultivation level."

"Even if the skill of exorcising gods is used to successfully summon you, the maximum strength you can exert is roughly at the level of Nezha and Zhao Gongming."

As Jiang Yuan spoke, he looked directly into Zhulong's eyes: "To put it bluntly, Nezha and Zhao Gongming could handle this without needing to summon someone with your power."

"And what Nezha and Zhao Gongming cannot solve, you, even with this level of power, cannot solve either."

"Different."

After Jiang Ming finished speaking, Zhulong denied it, saying, "What you call 'exorcising gods' is merely the ability to summon them."

"But with my energy as a medium, you can summon my true form."

"How my own energy is utilized depends on your upper limit."

"You can think of me as someone who summons spirits as someone who summons immortals to grant me the ability to do so."

Hearing what Zhulong said, Jiang Yuan couldn't help but be tempted.

As I just mentioned, the uncertainty of [summoning immortals] is too great.

Just like that time when we encountered danger, but summoned a heavenly soldier.

If he hadn't run fast, Jiang Yuan would be gone by now.

Well, it does have some survival skills, I suppose.

However, that one instance was enough to illustrate the uncertainty of "invoking immortals".

Ordinary dangers are manageable, but if it's truly a life-threatening situation, summoning a deity that isn't particularly powerful or strong in combat is an option.

That's trouble.

The promise from Zhulong is a safety net mechanism.

When faced with a life-threatening crisis, first invoke the spirits. If that fails, then use the exorcism technique to summon the Candle Dragon.

"No."

Even though he was tempted, Jiang Yuan ultimately shook his head and rejected Zhulong's suggestion.

"It's my own business if I can get your help. But the unification of the dragon race would be a huge crisis for the human race."

Jiang Yuan said calmly, "I am a rather selfish person, but I cannot be selfish about this kind of thing."

"What if I could guarantee that the dragon race, after unification, would always stand on the side of the human race?"

Upon hearing Jiang Yuan's words, a golden light flashed in Ao Zhu's eyes.

He thought of the conditions that had been vague and unclear to him before.

The conditions that truly allow Jiang Yuan to compromise are those that stand between the human and dragon races!
Simply giving Jiangyuan benefits is not enough.

Ao Zhu was naturally aware of this as well, since he would have made the same choice if he were in Jiang Yuan's position.

However, if Jiang Yuan's concerns are addressed, Jiang Yuan will also benefit.

Then Jiang Yuan should have no reason to refuse.

Moreover, what he proposed not only resolved Jiang Yuan's concerns, but could even elevate Jiang Yuan to the status of a great hero of the human race.

The complete alliance between two first-order races was something that had never happened before.

Of course, even if they were to completely join forces, they certainly couldn't reveal this situation.

Once exposed, these two first-order races, working together, will definitely become targets for other first-order races!
Therefore, even if they join forces, they can only do so discreetly.

But that's enough!
Jiang Yuan brought a top-tier, first-order race to the side of the human race, forming a united front with them!

In this situation, if it were me, I would not give up the benefits for humanity as a whole, even if it meant giving up the benefits for myself!
Therefore, Ao Zhu spoke with confidence.

Jiang Yuan will promise himself!
"Why do you want me to believe you?"

Jiang Yuan was indeed very tempted after hearing what Ao Zhu said, even more so than the benefits that Zhu Long had just told him.

If the dragons were standing beside him, the problem of the Sea-Stabilizing Pearl would be much easier to solve.

After all, the growth of the Sea-Stabilizing Pearl requires a small world.

For humans and dragons, once they obtain a small world, the risk of being discovered can be greatly reduced.

Compared to what Zhulong said, what Aozhu said is clearly more appropriate!
Whether from one's own perspective or from the perspective of the human race.

"This card!"

Ao Zhu took out a card with a serious expression and spoke to Jiang Yuan.

"This is what I have prepared for all the dragons who have joined my plan, regardless of whether they are from the East or the West."

"S-grade red quality skill card, Holy Covenant Master Card!"

"This is what I obtained in the Time-Space Gate Hall."

"The main card has the ability to sign contracts with two races!"

"Of course, after the contract is signed, it will only take effect after I become the strongest or leader of the dragon race and you become the strongest of the human race."

"Neither side can break the alliance unless both sides die simultaneously or one side's strength is three major realms higher than the other's!"

"I can decide to sign the alliance. After I take power, the human race and the dragon race will advance and retreat together, and they will not attack each other's people. If one side is in trouble, the other side will provide support, and so on—a series of treaties suitable for our two races!"

"In that case, you don't need to worry."

"Because according to the racial covenant, if either side violates it, the violator will either die or the entire race will be wiped out!"

After speaking emphatically, Ao Zhu remained silent for a moment, then looked at Jiang Yuan and suddenly smiled.

"Actually, you don't need to worry. Although I can switch between two races, I consider myself to be an Eastern dragon."
