Battle Through the Heavens: Who put Laozi in my storage ring?

Zi Yan glared at him angrily: "Old Deng, you're not like that at all! What's wrong with me?"

Su Qian remained silent.

Looking at Xiao Yan, a hint of emotion flashed in his eyes. Clearly, judging from the appearance of the patriarch of the Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan, he had probably been trapped here for a long time. Although he didn't know what method this kid used to get him out of his predicament, in any case, the means to interfere with a Dou Sheng powerhouse must be extraordinary.

As the dean was right, this kid's background is probably terrifyingly powerful.

"There's a competition for the top spots in the inner courtyard soon, are you going?"

Su Qian remained silent for a long time before slowly speaking.

Competing for the top spot?

Is it even necessary to deal with this kid?

Even Zi Yan, the top student in the inner courtyard, was easily defeated by her, let alone the other group of hotheads.

"Compete for the rankings? Of course I'll go..."

Xiao Yan said calmly.

As the founder of the Daoist sect, this ranking is crucial to the future rise and fall of the Daoist sect at Canaan Academy. He wants to ensure that the top five positions on the ranking list are all held by Daoist powerhouses.

As for Lin Xiuya and others.

Excuse me.

I'll take this spot on the top list first...

"Fine, whatever makes you happy." Su Qian clicked his tongue, feeling sorry for those guys in the top ten of the rankings, then shook his head. What did it have to do with him?

The strength of the Canaan Academy disciples was also a source of pride for him.

Chapter 115 Northern Dragon King: Family, do you think I can still live? (3.5k words)

The territory of the Ancient Dragon of the Void.

Donglong Island.

A massive island floated in mid-air, surrounded by countless dark-colored, floating reef-like ancient dragons that seemed to be protecting it.

On this vast island stand magnificent buildings, many of which still bear traces of history, seemingly relics from ancient times, witnessing the decline of the once mighty Taixu Ancient Dragon to its present state.

At the center of the island.

On top of a magnificent building.

“Now the power of Donglong Island is weak, with only you and me left to guard it. If those guys take advantage of the situation, it will be troublesome. I heard that the Northern Dragon King seems to be making moves. With his cultivation as a four-star Dou Sheng, if he really wants to unify the other islands, I'm afraid no one can stop him…” Zhu Li was full of worry.

"Unfortunately, the First Elder and the Second Elder are in seclusion, unable to sense outside information, so I'm afraid it's..."

"No problem, we'll deal with whatever comes our way." Another white-haired old man said calmly, looking down over the entire Donglong Island.

With the disappearance of the patriarch and his only bloodline descendant, the entire Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan has been divided for hundreds of years. In its heyday, the Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan was incredibly glorious, with numerous powerful figures, and even the so-called Dou Sheng (Battle Saint) level experts were nothing special.

But nowadays... even a peak Dou Zun can be considered a major fighting force.

It is truly tragic and lamentable.

"Om..."

Just as the two men were about to confront each other, a buzzing sound slowly emerged, and then the figure of a middle-aged man wearing a purple-gold robe with a sharp face gradually appeared in front of them.

He gazed wistfully into the distance, taking in the present-day Donglong Island.

"Who?!" Zhu Li's pupils shrank sharply, and he struck the other person's back with a palm.

It was as if time and space had been compressed.

Despite the distance, the palm strike felt as if it were right in front of him, landing suddenly on the mysterious man's back.

"..."

But the middle-aged man remained calm, seemingly letting Zhu Li attack him. Amidst the astonished gazes of Zhu Li and Qi You, the latter lightly patted his sleeves, as if they were dusty.

However, Zhu Li's all-out attack just now did not cause any injury.

“Zhu Li…”

The middle-aged man spoke leisurely, glancing sideways at the two of them.

The kingly aura that had been subtly emanating from his body was no longer concealed, and was released unrestrainedly: "You've done very well these years, you've tried your best."

"..."

Zhu Li trembled all over and froze on the spot.

Those familiar faces, those familiar figures, it was as if the blood in my entire body was boiling. Their patriarch, the one who truly made the Ancient Void Dragons stand at the pinnacle of the continent, had actually returned...

"Chieftain!!!"

Zhu Li wept bitterly and knelt on the ground in an instant.

Donglong Island has not claimed a kingdom all these years, but has been waiting for the clan leader to return. If it weren't for the suppression by the First Elder and the Second Elder, it would probably have been devoured by those traitors long ago.

And now... we've finally made it through.

"They, those beasts..."

"I know."

Zhu Kun sighed softly: "I never imagined that those few who groveled at my feet back then, seemingly obedient, were actually the most ambitious. I misjudged them. But it doesn't matter. Now that I've returned, I'm here to clear the obstacles for Zi Yan, to remove the thorns from her, so that she can better take over this position."

There was once an agreement between the two sides.

Those who are stronger than the Dou Sheng are not allowed to travel freely in the mortal world. If they wantonly slaughter people in the mortal world, they will attract the joint efforts of many top forces to suppress them.

Even a top expert like him has limitations, such as the ancient clans and the Soul Clan. However, taking action to eliminate scum within his own clan does not fall into this category. Even if he kills until the blood sea is raging, no other powerful figures from the eight ancient clans will come out to stop him.

This is a family matter.

"Yes! I'll go and inform the Grand Elder right away!" Zhu Li said excitedly.

"It doesn't have to be..."

Zhu Kun's figure slowly disappeared. "I'll be right back."

the other side,

Beilong Island.

Similar to East Dragon Island, but slightly smaller in size, it is still much larger than the other West and South Dragon Islands. When the family split up, the North Dragon King had the strongest cultivation, so he had more clansmen under his command.

On top of a magnificent palace.

A handsome man clad in pale gold armor sat leisurely on a high seat, looking down at the beauties dancing below. Armored guards, exuding a fierce and bloodthirsty aura, stood guard over the Northern Dragon King on his high seat.

"Tsk...that waist twists quite nicely."

The Northern Dragon King saw the alluring beauty in front of him, who was freely displaying her supple waist and wearing a thin veil that exposed most of her fair and soft flesh. A lewd glint flashed in his eyes, and he pulled her into his arms, completely disregarding the many ministers present, and began to enjoy himself to the fullest.

The many black-armored guards around them looked at each other in bewilderment.

One of them lowered his head and slowly said, "Your Highness, should we really send troops? If the old clan leader returns, wouldn't that be a major taboo within the clan?"

Clearly, the group was still somewhat averse to this kind of fratricidal behavior. Even though the Northern Dragon King was indeed the most powerful and many of his clansmen were willing to follow him, when it came to this...

Moreover, to join forces with their old nemesis, the Heavenly Phoenix Clan, is nothing short of betrayal.

That's really embarrassing.

They will stop at nothing to win.

"Oh?"

The Northern Dragon King's eyes were full of laughter as he glanced at the black-armored commander: "Zhu Cang, we rebelled together. Our crimes are enough to warrant being torn apart by the clan rules. Now you're playing the loyal subject to me? Why didn't you say that when we rebelled back then?"

The black-armored commander's face flushed red and then turned pale.

He clasped his hands in a gesture of respect and sat down with a sigh.

Indeed, ever since he started splitting the Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan and chose to follow the Northern Dragon King, his hands were stained with the blood of his own kind. This sin can never be washed away.

Now we have no choice but to grit our teeth and go all the way.

They pinned their hopes on the Northern Dragon King. If he could lead the Ancient Dragon of the Void back to glory, then they would be the true lineage, the main branch, while the group on Eastern Dragon Island would be nothing more than remnants of the old emperor, unable to cause any more trouble.

Over the years, each of the four islands has had its own plans.

They all wanted to devour each other, fought several bloody battles, and lost countless clansmen, but none of them succeeded. Now that the Eastern Dragon King has made a breakthrough, if they do not take advantage of the situation, there will only be more variables in the future.

"Ha ha……"

The Northern Dragon King chuckled and leisurely looked at the group of elite soldiers and generals in the hall, a fanatical glint in his eyes: "Rest assured, everyone, if I, Zhu Guang, can unify the Ancient Dragons of the Void, this honor will certainly not be enjoyed alone."

"Is that so?"

A voice drifted out.

Under the astonished gazes of many powerful figures from North Dragon Island, the familiar figure in the purple-gold robe slowly appeared, a smile on his face, looking down at many half-saints and even peak ninth-level Dou Zun who were famous throughout the continent.

"Clan chief?! Clan leader?!"

The Northern Dragon King's pupils contracted sharply, and the beauty he was holding trembled, not daring to look up.

Its throat bobbed as it sensed the familiar scent, yet its heart was already ice-cold.
