Chapter 4137: Impersonating the Dragon King

“It’s a long story…”

Xiaoqing recounted the entire incident from beginning to end. Just as Ye Bufan had guessed, devouring the Dragon Pearl only allowed her to completely transform into a Dragon, reaching the Rank of a Twelfth Rank Immortal Demon Beast.

The reason she was able to advance again, reaching the Rank of a Four Grade Sacred Dragon, was due to the Dragon Soul she had absorbed previously.

Before, Ye Bufan and Xiaoqing both thought she had absorbed most of it, but only after becoming a true Dragon Clan member did they realize that she had only absorbed some superficial parts of the Dragon Soul, and the remaining small portion was the true core.

Becoming a Dragon Clan member and a Twelfth Rank Immortal Demon Beast, Xiaoqing’s absorption speed increased significantly. When she completely absorbed the Dragon Soul, she also fully accepted the memories left behind.

It turned out that this Dragon Soul was once a Five Grade Sacred Dragon named Long Tan, who was Dragon Emperor Long Ao’s good brother and his most steadfast supporter in his ascension to power.

For many years, he had faithfully followed Long Ao, treating him as his best brother.

However, he never expected that after ascending to the Dragon Emperor’s throne, Long Ao’s first target would be Long Tan.

The reason was simple: he knew too many of the Dragon Emperor’s dirty secrets.

Although he met a tragic end, being a Five Grade Sacred Dragon, Long Tan’s Physical Body was destroyed, but his Dragon Soul escaped, eventually lurking in the Lower Heaven Region.

Being ambushed by his good brother left him heartbroken and he lost the motivation to continue living, so he gave his entire Dragon Soul to Xiaoqing, whom he met by chance.

Whether Human Race or Yao Beast, Cultivation is all about Opportunity.

Long Tan was, after all, a Five Grade Sacred Dragon before, and the Dragon Soul he left behind was extremely powerful, helping Xiaoqing to elevate to the Rank of a Four Grade Sacred Dragon in one go.

“So that’s how it is.”

Ye Bufan nodded, both happy for Xiaoqing’s Opportunity and gaining a deeper understanding of the Dragon Emperor’s despicable nature.

“Boss, I’ve entered the Twelfth Rank!”

Just as everyone was conversing, an excited voice rang out, none other than Meiqi, who had awakened.

He was originally a half-blooded Qilin, infinitely close to the Twelfth Rank.

Now, after devouring the Physical Body of the Dragon Pearl, his strength surged, and he had completely stepped into the Twelfth Rank, moreover, possessing strength equivalent to an Immortal Emperor middle stage, which excited him to the extreme.

After enthusiastically greeting Ye Bufan, he turned his head and saw Xiaoqing beside him.

“I’m already at the Twelfth Rank, and Middle Stage at that. You haven’t even managed to advance, have you?”

Meiqi couldn’t beat Xiaoqing in Tetris before. Now that he had entered the Twelfth Rank, he felt that since the little girl woke up so early, she definitely wasn’t as strong as him, so he wanted to regain some face.

But he didn’t expect that as soon as he finished speaking, he was kicked away, and Xiaoqing’s proud voice came from his ear: “This old lady is a Four Grade Sacred Dragon!”

Meiqi got up from the ground, first shocked, then ran over with a fawning expression.

“Big Sister! As expected of my Big Sister, even the speed of improvement is so fast. Little brother truly admires you.

Is your arm sore? Do you want me to rub it for you? And that kick just now, it was so cool…”

He used to call Xiaoqing Big Sister because he couldn’t beat her in Tetris, but now he truly admired her.

He was a half-blooded Qilin, while she was a true Four Grade Sacred Dragon. The gap was indeed quite large.

After some flattery, he said ingratiatingly again, “Big Sister, can you spare some time to teach your little brother how you transformed from a Flood Dragon into a true Dragon Clan member?”

He was aware of Xiaoqing’s strength before she fell into slumber, and he knew that before, she could at most be considered a Flood Dragon with Dragon Clan Qi. Yet, in the blink of an eye, she not only became a true Dragon Clan member but also a Four Grade Sacred Dragon. To say he wasn’t envious would be a lie.

As a half-blooded Qilin, what he hated most was being called a hybrid, and what he yearned for most was to possess a true Qilin Bloodline.

It was precisely for this reason that he was so flattering to Xiaoqing, massaging the little girl’s shoulders as he spoke.

“Here, a little more force. Didn’t you eat?”

Xiaoqing had a look of enjoyment, clearly very pleased with Meiqi’s flattery, and then uttered five words, “I don’t know either.”

“This…”

Meiqi’s face immediately fell.

“Alright, you two, stop messing around.”

Ye Bufan smiled slightly, called these two lively characters over, and gave each of them a Dragon Ascension Pill.

Meiqi held the Medicinal Pill in his hand and examined it carefully.

“Boss, what is this thing?”

As an ancient Vicious Beast, there were very few Medicinal Pills he could eat, and rarely would Human Race Cultivators refine Medicinal Pills for them.

Ye Bufan said, “This is a Dragon Ascension Pill. After you eat it, you won’t need to fall into slumber when you Cultivate your strength again.”

Meiqi looked at him eagerly: “Boss, can it turn me into a true Qilin Bloodline?”

“This cannot, but it can make you stronger.”

After Ye Bufan finished speaking, he raised his hand, and three huge Dragon corpses flew over.

“If you devour these three, you should at least be at the Peak of a Twelfth Rank Vicious Beast, and perhaps even stronger.”

“Oh my god!”

Meiqi looked at the three giant Dragons in front of him, his heart filled with shock.

“Boss, you are truly amazing. These are true Dragon Clan members, one a Four Rank, one a Five Rank…”

“Less nonsense, go and improve your strength quickly.”

Ye Bufan was too lazy to talk nonsense with this guy, so he waved his hand and sent Meiqi and the three Dragon corpses a hundred miles away.

Then, with a flip of his wrist, Long Geng’s shimmering Dragon Pearl flew in front of Xiaoqing.

“Swallow this and see if you can become a Five Grade Sacred Dragon.”

“Definitely!”

Xiaoqing nodded excitedly, opened her mouth, and swallowed the Dragon Pearl. Then she was surprised to find that not only did she not need to fall into slumber, but the absorption speed was a hundred times faster than before.

This was the power of the Dragon Ascension Pill. Back then, the Ancient Medical Sect also obtained this beast-use Pill Formula by chance.

However, it had never been tested before, and the specific effects still needed to be slowly observed.

After the excitement, Lu Banxia said, “Ye Dage, what do we do next?

How about we use today’s method again, lure out a few more Dragon Clan members, and eliminate them one by one.”

Ye Bufan shook his head: “With such heavy losses this time, the Dragon Clan won’t fall for it again, and it’s impossible for individual powerhouses to leave the Dragon Domain.

Moreover, as long as Xiao Yezi is in their hands, slaughtering more Dragon Clan members is useless.”

Xuan Yuan Linglong said anxiously, “Then what do we do? Should we directly attack the Dragon Clan to rescue them and fight them to the death?”

“That’s even more impossible. Our strength is not enough, and besides, Xiao Yezi and the others are still in their hands.”

Ye Bufan shook his head, “To deal with the Dragon Clan, the most important thing is to rescue them. I plan to enter the Dragon Domain.”

After he said this, everyone present changed their expressions.

Fox Si Niang spoke first: “Young Master Ye, this is absolutely not allowed. The Dragon Emperor is an extremely cunning person. If you enter rashly, you will definitely be discovered by him, and the consequences will be unimaginable.”

“Don’t worry, I won’t act recklessly.”

Ye Bufan said, “This is a good Opportunity. I can disguise myself as Long Geng and sneak into the Dragon Clan.”

Situ Dianmo said, “How can that work? You don’t know the situation of the Dragon Clan, so it will be easy to expose yourself.”

Ye Bufan shook his head: “Don’t worry about that. I have already read Long Geng’s memories using the Soul Searching Technique, so I won’t reveal any flaws.”

Fox Si Niang said anxiously, “That’s still not good. Every race in Demon Emperor Heaven has its unique Qi, especially the Dragon Clan. This cannot be hidden.”
