In Douluo Continent, the Pope used me as a substitute for my first love.

Chapter 117 "Paying Homage to the Dragon King"

The Imperial Palace.

At this moment, the faces of the Lin family father and son were rather grim. After all, they were not so naive as to believe that the Soul Saints who accompanied Prince Lin An on his trip were merely going on a leisurely outing.

The deeper meaning behind this is undoubtedly about choosing sides. Apart from the only remaining Soul Saint with the War Halberd, all the other Soul Saints actually chose to stand on Prince Lin'an's side...

What a disgrace! What a traitor!

Just then, a tall and imposing man walked in.

"A halberd offered!"

The two rushed to greet him, for he was their last hope.

"Your Majesty, Your Highness."

As always, Zhanji Hunsheng knelt on one knee to pay his respects.

"My dear minister, there's no need for such formalities."

Lin Tian quickly helped him up.

Immediately afterwards, the three discussed the situation outside the city. After some discussion, the more cautious Lin Tian ultimately chose not to let Zhanji Hunsheng take action, instead of letting him risk his life to save Wang Zhao and thus form a bond with this young genius, or letting him not take the risk and risk losing his life. He decided to observe the situation outside the city.

After all, if Zhanji Soul Saint were to suffer any mishap, what would the father and son have left to fight against Prince Lin'an when he returned fully prepared?

"Report!"

Just then, a scout brought news.

"Your Majesty, that Grand Tutor Wang Zhao is truly formidable! He actually turned the tide, leading his giant dragon to severely injure two Soul Saints in one fell swoop!"

"The Dragon Couple is about to win!"

"What?!"

Upon hearing this, Lin Tian's old face trembled. He paced back and forth for a while, his expression constantly changing, showing regret as well as a strange sense of fear. Finally, he directly took the hands of Prince Lin Hua and the War Halberd Soul Saint, and said:

"Quickly, come out with me. Even if we can't help you in your time of need, we must at least add to your good fortune. Although it probably won't have much effect now, our attitude must be on point."

"..."

Meanwhile, outside the city.

boom!

As the dust settled, the figure of the Archer Soul Saint was revealed. He was on the verge of unconsciousness due to the combined attack of Wang Zhao and Qian Renxue.

Seeing this, Wang Zhao finally dispelled his imposing aura, temporarily put away the golden scales, and, with a slightly pale face, fell into Qian Renxue's arms.

Clearly, this series of actions took a toll on him.

Not far away, seeing the state of their companions and realizing that their own condition had recovered somewhat, both the Giant Eagle Soul Saint and the Plant-type Soul Saint couldn't help but think of betraying their teammates. They exchanged glances and saw the intention to leave in each other's eyes.

There was no other way; no matter what, they didn't want to lose their lives like that.

If they can't afford to offend this terrifying dragon couple, can't they at least avoid them?

but……

There's no such thing as coming and going as you please. Just as the two Soul Saints turned to leave quietly, they were suddenly stopped by a surge of soul power.

"I am——"

"The Unicorn Water Dragon, the Dynasty!"

"The Three-Eyed Azure Dragon, Ma Han!"

"Sir, you think you can just walk away after offending our young master and young lady? That's wishful thinking!"

Two towering Dragon Martial Soul Saints blocked the path of the Plant-type Soul Saint, their faces full of majesty.

On the other side, the Giant Eagle Soul Saint was also facing an extremely tense situation.

"I am——"

"Mysterious Wood Dragon, Zhang Long!"

"Ghostfire Wyvern, Zhao Hu!"

"Since you've offended our young master and young lady, then please stay!"

Immediately afterwards, several more figures slowly stepped out from the surrounding area, each with seven soul rings flashing on their bodies.

Clearly, they were all Soul Saints, and it seemed they were all Dragon Soul Masters as well, their total number even exceeding that of the entire Kingdom of Silves.

Plant-type Soul Saint: "..."

Giant Eagle Soul Saint: "..."

Young master? Young lady?

Wang Defa!

With this background, you two, the Dragon Couple, fought for so long, were you just using the three of us as whetstones?

The faces of the plant-type Soul Saint, the giant eagle Soul Saint, and the bow-type Soul Saint who witnessed this scene with only a sliver of consciousness all turned grim.

Not only was there fear of the current dangerous situation, but also humiliation at being outmaneuvered by the two juniors, Wang Zhao and Qian Renxue.

"Haha, what a fine family of the Sylvester Kingdom, what a fine Prince Lin'an! Not only did they send men to ambush us young masters and ladies, but they even had people lying in wait on the outskirts. How dare they!!!"

Just then, a powerful and majestic voice suddenly resounded throughout the world.

Immediately afterwards, an incredibly huge and bizarre phantom of a dragon descended, its claws gripping a long rope, on which were strung human heads with hideous faces!

"Lin...Prince Lin'an!"

Among the onlookers, many immediately recognized the identity of the first human head on the rope.

"And there's also the kingdom's windbird offering!"

"That's the Red Tiger Offering!"

"He, they, those on the rope are all Soul Saints..."

"What on earth happened? Is the Kingdom of Silves about to perish?!"

After countless gasps of surprise, a knowledgeable old man in the crowd quickly recognized the identity of the strange, giant dragon phantom.

"That is... an unparalleled dragon and snake!"

"There's no mistake. Why would the Peerless Dragon and Snake couple be here, and why would they address the Divine Dragon Couple as 'Young Master and Miss'..."

"What?!"

The old man's words undoubtedly caused another stir.

Actually, not to mention those clueless people, Wang Zhao was also a little confused when he saw the figure of the peerless dragon and snake, but he didn't show it.

After all, we can find out the details later.

"roar……"

Finally, the grand finale was a dragon whose head and tail were nowhere to be seen. Its body was estimated to be hundreds of meters long, connecting to the clouds. The sky suddenly turned into an eerie, dark blue, but within the eeriness, there was also a faint sense of righteousness.

A man completely concealed beneath a wide black robe stood atop the dragon's head, arms crossed, just as Wang Zhao had done before, with spirit rings rising around his body—

Yellow, yellow, purple, purple, black, black, black, black, black!

He was actually a prince!

At that moment, the entire audience fell silent.

The emperor standing atop the dragon's head remained silent, his mere presence already the pinnacle of the place. He bowed his head slightly, and people followed his gaze to the imperial palace.

His attitude is obvious!

At this moment, King Lin Tian of Silves, along with Prince Lin Hua and the War Halberd Soul Saint, hurriedly arrived. With the whispered reminders from the surrounding officials, the three quickly learned about the situation.

"Greetings, Your Majesty."

Therefore, Lin Tian immediately led everyone to bow to the mysterious lord. Seeing that he did not respond, he did not dare to be angry. He just smiled and turned to look at the peerless dragon and snake couple who had deactivated their martial soul fusion skill and were each holding a dragon head and a snake head cane.

Facing the gaze cast upon them by King Lin Tian, ​​the Dragon Duke and Snake Granny showed no respect whatsoever, slowly standing behind Wang Zhao and Qian Renxue, and then letting out a faint "humph".
