Battle Through the Heavens: My Grandfather is a Six-Star Dou Sheng

Chapter 81 Happy Zi Yan

Zhu Li led Jiang Xing through winding corridors until they arrived at the towering main hall.

The grand hall was imposing, seemingly able to swallow up all noise, making everything around it silent.

Zhu Li stopped and looked back at Jiang Xing, a hint of caution in her eyes.

He cupped his hands slightly and said, "Young friend, please wait a moment. The Dragon Emperor is currently handling urgent official business in the palace. I will go in and inform him immediately."

After Zhu Li finished speaking, she carefully looked at Jiang Xing, wanting to see how he would react.

Jiang Xing nodded slightly, appearing calm and casual, and said, "Alright, Elder Zhuli, you may go."

Zhu Li was initially worried that Jiang Xing would be dissatisfied with the wait, but seeing his calm demeanor, she breathed a sigh of relief.

So Zhu Li straightened his robes, took a deep breath, and strode into the main hall.

Jiang Xing stood quietly in place and began to observe the changes on Dragon Island.

The atmosphere inside the main hall was solemn and dignified.

High above the dome, intricate and mysterious dragon patterns are carved, as if telling the story of the long history and heritage of the Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan.

The surrounding stone walls are inlaid with gemstones of various colors, which shimmer and reflect in every corner of the hall.

Zi Yan sat regally on the throne, a throne carved from a single piece of purple jade, radiating a faint purple light that seemed to blend with her aura.

However, she looked listless and seemed uninterested in everything around her.

"Dragon Emperor, the cultivation resources we've harvested this year..." The Grand Elder's voice echoed in the empty hall.

He held a thick scroll in his hand, giving a detailed report on various affairs of the clan.

Although improving her strength is the most important thing for Zi Yan right now, as the Dragon Emperor, she also needs to take care of some clan affairs.

Listening to the Grand Elder's report, Zi Yan turned her head slightly, her gaze sweeping over the Grand Elder, but not lingering for long.

Zi Yan has a rather carefree personality, so she tends to delegate these tedious tasks to her subordinates whenever possible.

However, there were still some important matters that Ziyan needed to handle.

"Okay, I understand," Zi Yan replied faintly, her voice tinged with weariness.

Upon seeing this, the Grand Elder couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

He also discovered that his own dragon emperor had an unconventional personality and disliked dealing with such matters.

But as the Grand Elder, he had to fulfill his duties.

So he continued to report on other clan affairs, hoping to attract Zi Yan's attention.

However, Zi Yan's thoughts had already drifted far away.

She thought of Jiang Xing, Cai Lin, Qing Lin, and the lovely Jiang Yue.

After the Grand Elder finished reporting something, footsteps suddenly came from outside the main hall.

Zi Yan snapped out of her daze and turned her gaze to the entrance of the main hall.

Zhu Li strode in quickly, while Zhu Li walked in slowly.

He wore a long blue robe, walked with a steady gait, and had a solemn expression, revealing a dignified yet approachable demeanor.

Zhu Li approached the Grand Elder, bowed respectfully to Zi Yan and the Grand Elder, and said in a calm yet powerful voice, "Dragon Emperor, Grand Elder."

Zi Yan sat on the high throne, her gaze falling on Zhu Li, and a hint of doubt arose in her heart.

She wondered what the old man Zhuli wanted to report to her now that he had come here.

The Grand Elder also looked at Zhu Li, curious about what was wrong with him.

Zhu Li's expression was solemn as he slowly spoke: "Dragon Emperor, Grand Elder, there is something I need to report to you both. Young friend Jiang Xing has arrived at Ancient Dragon Island and is currently waiting outside the main hall."

Upon hearing the name, the Grand Elder raised an eyebrow, a strange sense of familiarity welling up within him, as if he had heard the name somewhere before, but he couldn't quite place it.

He was about to ask a question when he saw that Zi Yan, who had been listless, had already stood up.

Standing up, Zi Yan asked happily, "Jiang Xing has come to Gulong Island?"

Zhu Li cupped his hands and replied, "Yes, Dragon Emperor, young friend Jiang Xing is currently waiting outside the main hall."

Seeing his Dragon Emperor so overjoyed, the Grand Elder suddenly recalled what Zhu Li had mentioned: to bring the Dragon Emperor back and help their Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan unify humanity.

It's not that the Grand Elder has a bad memory and has forgotten Jiang Xing, who helped their Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan a great deal.

It's just that he recently emerged from seclusion, Elder Zhuli had just told him about the events of the past few years, and many powerful Taixu Ancient Dragons had returned, leaving him with many responsibilities, so he forgot about it for a while.

Upon hearing about the human who had helped their Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan, the Grand Elder felt a strong urge to see Jiang Xing immediately and express his gratitude in person.

The Grand Elder knew that if Jiang Xing hadn't brought the Dragon Emperor back and given him his full support, the Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan might still be mired in internal strife.

The Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan will surely remember this kindness.

The Grand Elder was about to speak and have Zhu Li go and invite Jiang Xing into the hall, but Zi Yan was faster than him.

She couldn't wait to leave her throne and hurried out of the hall, as if an invisible force was pulling her.

Zi Yan stepped out of the main hall, her eyes sparkling with anticipation, and immediately spotted Jiang Xing standing outside.

She couldn't help but feel a surge of joy, her lips unconsciously curving upwards, and she called out with a hint of surprise in her voice, "Jiang Xing!"

Jiang Xing, who was sensing the changes on Dragon Island, turned around and saw Zi Yan, and smiled slightly: "Zi Yan."

"Jiang Xing, you've finally come to see me on Gulong Island." Zi Yan was very happy to see Jiang Xing.

Clearly, Zi Yan thought Jiang Xing had come specifically to see her.

"Uh...hehe."

Looking at the happy Zi Yan, and remembering that he had come to Dragon Island to find Zi Yan in order to seek help from the Ancient Dragon of the Void, Jiang Xing felt a little embarrassed, and his body language became somewhat unnatural.

At the same time, Jiang Xing also felt somewhat ashamed, ashamed that he had never come to Gulong Island to see Zi Yan.

However, Zi Yan did not notice anything unusual about Jiang Xing.

She approached Jiang Xing with great joy, her eyes sparkling with anticipation, as if she wanted to pour out all her longing.

"Jiang Xing, how's Yueyue doing lately? Has she grown taller? Has she become even cuter?"

Zi Yan launched into a barrage of questions, her voice tinged with urgency and anticipation.

When Jiang Yue was born, Zi Yan came to the Jiang family and took care of Jiang Yue for half a month.

However, after returning to Dragon Island, she was entangled in the affairs of the island and was unable to go out to see Jiang Yue again.

Zi Yan naturally missed the lovely Jiang Yue very much.

So when Zi Yan saw Jiang Xing, her eyes sparkled with anticipation.

She couldn't wait to ask about Jiang Yue's recent situation, wanting to know if the lovely Yueyue was doing well now, her voice filled with longing and yearning.
