Eternal Beast Taming Family

Chapter 548 Qinglan's Bet

A month later.

The two major legions of the Tianyun Dynasty have thoroughly penetrated into the heart of the Qinglan Dynasty and are now at the gates of the Qinglan Imperial City.

Chu Shengyuan stood atop the Black Dragon Emperor's head, his gaze darting towards the Qinglan Imperial City, where the vast expanse of clear blue sky served as a cloak for the Qinglan Emperor himself.

"I thought that you were terrified after my brother killed a Radiant-rank Origin Beast, and that you would run away to save your life as soon as my army approached the capital."

I never imagined you had such courage, waiting all this time in the capital.

Emperor Qinglan's expression was far from pleasant. The two Chu brothers were his calamity. He now deeply regretted letting those kings invade the borders of the Tianyun Dynasty.

Who knew that not only did he have an elder brother who immediately advanced to the Radiant Rank to protect the dynasty, but he himself had also reached the Radiant Rank when they met.

One of his only two Radiant-Rank Origin Beasts had perished, and the black dragon beneath the Heavenly Fortune Spirit Emperor gave him a faint feeling of dread.

But he was really unwilling to surrender just like that.

The Qinglan royal family has been diligently building its power for tens of thousands of years, and the title of Emperor Qinglan has been passed down through five emperors. If it were to end in his hands today, he would truly have no face to face his ancestors.

So he stared at Chu Shengyuan opposite him and spoke in a deep voice.

"The lives of the people of both dynasties are so innocent. Why don't we have a contest between the two of us, a contest between emperors? If I win, your Tianyun Dynasty will withdraw from the territory of my Qinglan Dynasty and promise not to invade my Qinglan Dynasty for ten thousand years."

If you win, my Qinglan Dynasty will honor your Tianyun Dynasty as the supreme court.

Chu Shengyuan rubbed his chin a few times with his fingers.

"Your suggestion is good, but the details need to be revised. If I win, you, Emperor Qinglan, will serve me as a slave for a thousand years, and all other conditions remain the same. How about that?"

Upon hearing Chu Shengyuan's words, Emperor Qinglan's face darkened unnaturally. "With such conditions, if I win, will you also have to serve me as a slave for a thousand years?"

Chu Shengyuan laughed heartily, "Emperor Qinglan, now is not the time for you to negotiate with me. If you don't agree, my army will trample the capital of Qinglan."

Although the conditions were somewhat harsh, at least regardless of winning or losing, the Qinglan royal family would ultimately be able to preserve their bloodline.

If the city is attacked, it is likely that no more bloodlines of the Qinglan royal family will remain in the world.

Under the incredulous gazes of the kings behind him, Emperor Qinglan nodded with difficulty.

"Okay, I agree. Let's go, let's go to heaven and have a go."

As he spoke, his figure transformed into a streak of light and disappeared into the clouds in the sky.

Seeing that Emperor Qinglan had set the battlefield in the sky, the faces of the many elders and ministers of the Qinglan royal family immediately relaxed.

Clearly, this sky is Emperor Qinglan's home ground, where his combat abilities will receive a terrifying boost.

However, Chu Shengyuan was not afraid at all. The black dragon beneath him roared and spiraled upwards before disappearing into the clouds.

In the capital city of Qinglan, among the many elders and clan leaders, someone spoke softly.

"To fight against His Majesty the Ming Emperor in the heavens—that's a place where His Majesty can fight beyond his own level. If I had known that the emperor on the other side would agree so easily, I would have let His Majesty the Ming Emperor set even more conditions."

The elders beside him nodded in agreement, saying, "That is indeed the case."

"But it's all good. A king keeps his word. This crisis for our clan can be resolved."

Clearly, the Qinglan royal family had extreme confidence in Emperor Qinglan, who was fighting in the sky. The battle was not over yet, but they seemed to have victory in their grasp.

Standing amidst the troops outside the city, Chu Daoxuan could see the solemn atmosphere in the Qinglan Imperial Capital suddenly relax considerably. He spoke to Lin Zixu beside him...

"Uncle Lin, everyone in Qinglan Imperial Capital has a lot of confidence in Emperor Qinglan Ming."

Lin Zixu, who was at the Evolutionary Rank of Spiritual Path, smiled and shook his head.

"They have confidence in Emperor Qinglan, but I don't think Emperor Qinglan has much confidence in himself."

Otherwise, they wouldn't have accepted such harsh conditions. Perhaps their ultimate goal is simply to preserve the bloodline of the Qinglan royal family.

"It seems that my uncle's experience of killing one of Qinglan Minghuang's source beasts last time still leaves him with psychological trauma. However, I didn't expect that my father would agree to Minghuang's conditions."

Lin Zixu pointed to the Source Beast Legion beneath him and the ferocious demonic beast legion, and said with a smile,

"It is extremely difficult to train these legions, and it has also consumed a huge amount of resources. If we can minimize the losses, we will naturally try to minimize them."

Moreover, the Qinglan Dynasty claims to be our vassal state. Given the treatment within our dynasty, it will likely only take a century for all the subjects of the Qinglan Dynasty to know only the Tianyun Dynasty and not Qinglan.

Chu Daoxuan thought about it and agreed, so he cupped his hands slightly to Lin Zixu and said, "Thank you for your guidance, Uncle Lin."

Lin Zixu looked at Chu Daoxuan with admiration. His calmness and eagerness to learn were rare qualities among aristocratic families. The Chu family placed great importance on cultivating their children's character.

While they were chatting, the battle in the sky had already begun. They could only see the azure light of the heavens appear and the dark shadows sweeping across the sky, with two completely different types of energy battling endlessly.

The terrifying clash of energies shattered the clouds in the sky, which then coalesced into a terrifying energy storm that swept towards the ground.

The capital city of Qinglan naturally had a protective force that held the entire city back, preventing this terrifying energy storm.

Meanwhile, among the army outside the city, Chu Daoxuan, as the sole ruler, took a step forward, and two source beasts with completely different attributes, a water dragon and a fire phoenix, flew out from behind him.

They worked together, and a shield that blended the two different energies of water and fire slowly unfolded above the army. This shield seemed to possess an extremely peaceful power, dissipating the sweeping energy within it.

The battle in the sky did not last long. About half an hour later, the clear sky shattered, and accompanied by a spiritual light like a shattered mirror, a figure fell helplessly from the sky.

Just as it was about to make contact with the protective light shield of the Qinglan Imperial Capital, it barely managed to stabilize itself in mid-air.

Only then did everyone realize that he was none other than Emperor Qinglan.

Emperor Qinglan was in a very bad state at this moment. His face was pale, and blood was seeping from many parts of his body. The Dao essence that interacted with his spiritual essence caused the surrounding environment to distort and change.

However, seeing only Emperor Qinglan, despite his poor condition, a bold guess immediately arose in the minds of the elders and ministers in the Qinglan capital.

Perhaps the arrogant and ignorant Heavenly Fortune Spirit Emperor has already been killed beyond the horizon, which is why only the Clear Blue Bright Emperor has appeared.

A hint of joy appeared on their faces; they had not only won, but also had the potential to launch a counterattack.

As for the agreement, since the Heavenly Fortune Spirit Emperor is dead, the so-called agreement naturally doesn't count.
