Chapter 600: Dragon Pearl!
"Little Xue, the Peerless Great Sage is different from any Cultivator you have encountered before. Even among the foreign races, such an existence cannot be found. You had better put away your thoughts of challenging him for now. Since you are leading the way for him this time, you will naturally have the chance to witness his methods of dealing with the foreign races."
Dragon King Ao Yin said earnestly.
He knew that Ao Xue had loved to compete and win since she was a child. Even though she had long since become a Great Sage, she still wanted to vie for superiority.
When he first learned the intelligence regarding Li Xuanfeng, his first reaction was doubt. Only after seeking verification from Lian Yuezhou multiple times did he have to accept this fact.
In his impression, Lian Yuezhou was a noble and majestic peerless expert who would never lie about such matters.
Moreover, it would not be difficult for him to prove the truth of this matter through other methods.
Let alone Ao Xue challenging him alone, even if the top Great Sages of the nine major domains of the Canglan Realm attacked together, they might not necessarily be a match for Li Xuanfeng.
As the first Great Sage in the Canglan Realm to be appointed as a Patrol Envoy, and a monster who had cleared out the vast majority of foreign races on the East Xuan Frontier Post battlefield in two years, Ao Yin also wanted to see with his own eyes just how powerful Li Xuanfeng was.
"Don't worry, Grandpa Clan Chief, I will be prudent."
Ao Xue nodded seriously.
Although she was competitive, she was by no means reckless. With Ao Yin's instructions, how could she not know the gravity of the situation?
Li Xuanfeng and Ye Qingqing had come to support the East Sea Frontier Post. In this situation, if she really spoke up to challenge him, it would be truly rude and inappropriate.
To know Li Xuanfeng's strength, it was indeed as Ao Yin said—the truth could be known simply from his methods of dealing with the foreign races.
However, Ao Yin's high praise for a Human Race member in the Great Sage Realm also ignited an extremely strong sense of curiosity in Ao Xue's heart.
"Li Xuanfeng is currently the only Patrol Envoy in the Great Sage Realm in the Canglan Realm. He and Ye Qingqing are the ones who have come to support our East Sea Frontier Post battlefield this time."
Dragon Clan Chief Ao Yin continued.
"With just two people, can they really change the course of the war?"
Huang Long could not help but speak up.
"The foreign races stopped pouring combat power into the East Xuan Frontier Post precisely because of them!"
Ao Yin explained.
"Is it truly that miraculous?"
Huang Long and Ao Xue still maintained a certain degree of skepticism.
Currently, all the major Boundary Passes were in difficulty. As the experts of the foreign races continued to gather, the pressure on the Canglan Realm grew greater and greater. Yet, the East Xuan Frontier Post was doing the opposite, even holding an absolute advantage against the foreign races.
The ones who caused this situation were actually just two Patrol Envoys; it was truly hard to believe.
Indisputably, Patrol Envoys were indeed powerful, each one a standout among quasi-emperors.
But no matter how strong they were, they could not be in two places at once. They could easily be bogged down by the foreign races, or even lured into a trap and besieged to death. Such situations had happened many times in the history of the Canglan Realm.
After all, the foreign races had the Bee Ant Clan, whose intelligence-gathering capabilities far exceeded those of the Canglan Realm. It was equivalent to the Canglan Realm being in the light while the foreign races were in the dark; it was much easier for the foreign races to specifically eliminate a certain expert of the Canglan Realm.
Yet, Li Xuanfeng and Ye Qingqing were unaffected. Instead, they were victorious in every battle, making the foreign races pay a heavy price.
It was only natural for Huang Long and Ao Xue to feel skeptical.
"What the truth is will be revealed before long."
Ao Yin knew that the doubts in Huang Long's and Ao Xue's hearts would only be dispelled after witnessing the truth with their own eyes, so he did not continue to explain.
Then he gave a few more instructions.
A short while later.
Whoosh~
A ripple of energy suddenly surged within the Dragon King Hall.
"They are here."
Ao Yin rose from his throne.
Opening his arms, arrays of runes emerged, and the spatial teleportation formation connected to a very distant place lit up with light.
Startling spatial fluctuations rippled outward.
Under the gaze of Ao Yin, Ao Xue, and Huang Long, two figures—a man and a woman, like a divine couple—appeared, gradually solidifying from the void.
The man wore Green-Armored Saint Robes, his figure slender and his temperament transcendent.
The woman wore a green dress that outlined her graceful figure, her face like a celestial jade, elegant and ethereal.
"Greetings, Patrol Envoy Ye, Patrol Envoy Li!"
Ao Xue and Huang Long both cupped their fists in a salute to the two.
"Hahaha, I have finally looked forward to the arrival of the two Patrol Envoys!"
Dragon King Ao Yin looked at Li Xuanfeng and Ye Qingqing and laughed. He did not seem to have the slightest air of a Supreme Expert, nor the arrogance of the Dragon Clan; instead, he seemed like a kind and amiable elder.
"Greetings, Senior Dragon King!"
Li Xuanfeng and Ye Qingqing simultaneously cupped their fists and bowed to Ao Yin.
Before coming, Li Xuanfeng had heard that the Dragon Clan Chief was very arrogant. Except for Supreme Experts and a few Juniors he favored, he rarely paid attention to anyone.
He seemed quite polite now, but that was because he needed help, and he had probably been briefed by Lian Yuezhou in advance.
"I have long heard of the glorious deeds of you two on the East Xuan Frontier Post battlefield. It is truly a blessing for the Canglan Realm to have you two!"
"I presume Palace Master Lian has already told you about the current situation of my East Sea. I won't say any more unnecessary words. Please help alleviate the pressure on the various Void Battlefields of my East Sea!"
"This is a gift my clan has prepared for the two of you."
Ao Yin got straight to the point without any superfluous talk. He spread his palm, and two beads the size of dragon eyes floated out, drifting in front of Li Xuanfeng and Ye Qingqing. Within the beads, there were faint phantom images of crouching dragons.
The two looked at each other and simultaneously reached out to grab them. A powerful force immediately spread from their hands, and a thin layer of energy enveloped their bodies.
"Is this a Dragon Pearl?"
Li Xuanfeng's heart stirred.
A Dragon Pearl was a relatively famous treasure of the Dragon Clan. It was refined from the Dragon Essence of fallen Dragon Clan experts combined with various top-tier Artifact Refining Materials. It integrated offense and defense, and carrying it for a long time provided great benefits for cultivation.
It could both accelerate cultivation and strengthen the Physical Body.
This kind of treasure was generally used internally by the Dragon Clan and rarely given away. Being actively gifted by the Dragon Clan also meant receiving the Dragon Clan's recognition.
Now, Ao Yin giving each of them a Dragon Pearl right away was a sign of his sincerity.
Of course, the main reason he could go this far was still Lian Yuezhou. Out of trust for Lian Yuezhou, he was willing to believe in the strength of Li Xuanfeng and Ye Qingqing.
"We will naturally do our utmost!"
Li Xuanfeng and Ye Qingqing put away the Dragon Pearls and cupped their fists in a bow to Ao Yin again.
The foreign races were the common enemy of all living beings in the Canglan Realm. The various Boundary Passes should naturally help each other and join forces to resist. However, the Dragon Clan also knew that they couldn't let others help for nothing; they needed to show some appreciation more or less.
Li Xuanfeng and Ye Qingqing would not decline this kindness either.
These two Dragon Pearls, even looking at the entire Dragon Clan, could be considered top-tier, comparable to a fourth or fifth-grade quasi-emperor weapon.
"Then I shall trouble you two. This is the basic situation of my East Sea Frontier Post battlefield."
Ao Yin took out a Jade Slip, which contained a large amount of intelligence information.
Li Xuanfeng's and Ye Qingqing's Divine Sense simultaneously spread into it, and they soon had a general understanding of the situation on the various Void Battlefields of the East Sea Frontier Post.
The intelligence in the Jade Slip already specified the battlefields that currently needed support from Li Xuanfeng and Ye Qingqing.
"Before you two set off, please take along these two unworthy Juniors of mine. They are relatively familiar with the various Void Battlefields and might be able to help somewhat."
Ao Yin pointed at Huang Long and Ao Xue and said to Li Xuanfeng and Ye Qingqing.
Ye Qingqing did not agree immediately. Instead, she looked toward her Junior Brother. All along, it was Li Xuanfeng who made the decisions.
"Very well."
Li Xuanfeng nodded.
