Beast Taming: I can evolve indefinitely

Chapter 767 Dragon Slayer and Beast Tamer?

The Crystal Palace was even larger than Bai Qi had anticipated. The golden dragon pulled the Crouching Dragon forward for a long time without stopping.

"Your Majesty, may I ask if your son truly killed the Third Prince of the Dragon Palace?"

Seeing the calm expression on the Dragon Emperor's face, Bai Qi finally couldn't help but ask.

According to what he knew, Crystal Palace's decline seemed to be due to this little boy, but could a seven-year-old really do that?

"Huh? Didn't Xiao Jin already say that?"

The Dragon Emperor feigned doubt and asked in return.

"But isn't it a bit far-fetched that a seven-year-old child has the ability to kill dragons?"

Seeing the Dragon Emperor's appearance, Bai Qi was both amused and exasperated.

"Under normal circumstances, it is indeed very unlikely."

The Dragon Emperor nodded, his expression suddenly turning strange.

"But have you ever heard of a talent that can slay dragons?"

Uh, Dragon Emperor, you better tell me honestly, are you in the same line of work as me...?

Bai Qi glanced at the Dragon Emperor a few more times, put away the absurd idea in his mind, and returned to the main topic.

"A talent for slaying dragons? Could His Majesty's child actually possess such a talent?"

The Dragon Emperor shrugged helplessly and said, "I am also very surprised. I rose to power because of the dragon race, but I have a rebellious son who wants to slay dragons."

"It just goes to show that cause and effect are cyclical, and karma is inevitable."

Bai Qi remained silent upon hearing this, while Bai Qiucha quietly moved closer to Zhuge Chen and said, "Why do I get the feeling that the Dragon Emperor is quite arrogant?"

"It was expected. Otherwise, why would this brat slaughter the offspring of his father's ally? He must have been spoiled rotten."

Zhuge Chen was unsurprised, but Bai Qiucha couldn't help but feel a hint of envy in her eyes.

Rumble...

Just then, the Golden Dragon suddenly stopped, remaining unmoved even as the Crouching Dragon crashed into it.

"Get down here!"

Jinlong turned to look at the Dragon Emperor and his companions, cursing them viciously. The accompanying dragons then escorted the Dragon Emperor's four dragon pets into the tall building in front of them, as if they were prisoners.

"That's really brutal."

Upon seeing this, the Dragon Emperor couldn't help but shake his head, but still followed the Golden Dragon's instructions to leave the Crouching Dragon and enter the Crystal Palace.

"I have a feeling I got ripped off this time..."

Bai Qi followed behind the Dragon Emperor, his expression growing increasingly helpless, already considering how to escape later.

However, the moment Bai Qi entered the Crystal Palace, his eye twitched involuntarily.

The dragon, which had been so aggressive just moments before, treating the Dragon Emperor's four dragon pets like prisoners, had completely abandoned its arrogant demeanor, replacing it with an extremely fawning appearance, bowing and scraping before the four dragon pets.

The four dragon pets were clearly used to this, and accepted it naturally with their heads held high.

As for the golden dragon, it was even more pathetic. If it weren't for its majestic appearance, Bai Qi would have suspected that it was a dog reincarnated.

"Your Majesty, how was my acting just now?"

The golden dragon shrank in size and circled the Dragon Emperor for a long time, bowing and scraping as if seeking praise.

"It's alright, but it's a bit too deliberate."

The Dragon Emperor patted the golden dragon's head and said, "Comparatively speaking, your four sons acted much better than you."

Upon hearing the Dragon Emperor's words, the Golden Dragon glared fiercely at the other dragons, while the Dragon Emperor's four dragon pets returned to his side, looking at the Golden Dragon with a hint of reproach.

"Old Jin, how did you manage to manage Crystal Palace like this? Our defenses have been too weak all this time."

A red dragon questioned the golden dragon without any politeness, but the golden dragon snorted and said, "You have the nerve to say that? We are all Dragon Emperors. You few only come here a few times a year, so don't point fingers."

"Hmph! That was trust. Looking at the situation now, we need to take over again."

"Perfect timing, I'll take a break for myself."

"..."

The conversation between the dragons completely baffled Bai Qi and his group until they saw a little child riding a dragon out of the Crystal Palace, at which point they finally understood.

"Your Majesty, is it true that your son killed the Dragon Emperor's Third Prince?"

"Fake."

"Is it true that Crystal Palace severed ties with the Dragon Dynasty because of this?"

"Fake."

"Is it true that your son has a talent for slaying dragons?"

"Fake?"

"So your claim that you'll die in a month is also false?"

"This is true."

After listening to the Dragon Emperor's explanation, Bai Qi let out a heavy breath, his brain racing as he quickly sorted through the current intelligence.

The break between the Crystal Palace and humanity was a grand drama orchestrated by the Dragon Emperor himself. Such elaborate planning must have been intended for certain individuals.

It could be a tribe, or some rebellious madmen in the Dragon Dynasty, or even a cult similar to the Death Round Table.

Regardless of who it is, the Dragon Emperor's purpose is quite clear.

Before he dies, he should eliminate all these destabilizing factors that could affect the future of humanity!

"Dad, you're finally here!"

Just as Bai Qi was pondering, the little child came to the group and leaped into the Dragon Emperor's arms.

"You brat, be careful, your old man can't take your bumps."

Upon being pounced on by the little child, the Dragon Emperor's expression twisted in pain. He carefully placed the child on the ground and said, "Never do that again, or your father will be sent away sooner or later."

"But Dad, aren't you about to die?"

The little boy looked at the Dragon Emperor with a puzzled expression, but Bai Qi and the others secretly scoffed at his indifferent demeanor.

Although he didn't slay the dragon, his behavior confirms he's definitely a brat!

"You are indeed going to die, so you need to learn how to manage this Crystal Palace for your father."

The Dragon Emperor gently patted the little child's head, looked at the five-clawed golden dragon that was slowly appearing in front of him, and said, "Old friend, it's been a long time."

The five-clawed golden dragon nodded and said, "It has been a long time, so long that I almost forgot there was such a beast tamer as you."

"I'm sorry, there are just too many things to do at the Dragon Dynasty, I can't get away. Thank you for managing the Crystal Palace."

The Dragon Emperor smiled apologetically, but Bai Qi sensed something amiss.

"Your Majesty, is this the Dragon Emperor?"

"That's right."

The Dragon Emperor nodded and said, "Moreover, he is also my master's pet, a five-clawed golden dragon."

"So, Your Majesty, you actually built the Crystal Palace as well?"

Bai Qi stared blankly at the Dragon Emperor and the Crystal Palace group, clearly bewildered by the sheer volume of information he had received that day.

"Not entirely. After all, the Crystal Palace already existed before we moved in. Although it was just an empty shell, it was still the place where I started my business."

The Dragon Emperor pointed to the massive building above his head and said, "If I'm not mistaken, this Crystal Palace should have existed since the mythical era. However, with the disappearance of the mythical creatures, the Crystal Palace also declined."

"It was not until I accidentally opened the Crystal Palace and obtained the Dragon Clan's inheritance that the Crystal Palace reappeared."

"I see."

Bai Qi nodded slightly, looked around, and said, "By the way, Your Majesty, are there any space-type silver dragons in the Crystal Palace?"

"Besides the silver dragon, Crystal Palace has all other dragon species."

The Dragon Emperor shook his head and said, "I once invited the Silver Dragon Clan to join us, but the Silver Dragons are very afraid of trouble, so they refused."

Silver Dragon, who hates trouble? That's right, Granny Fan has always been like that, she's not interested in anything.

"If I remember correctly, the Silver Dragon Clan has all gone to the South China Sea."

The Dragon Emperor looked at Bai Qi and said, "You want to ask the Silver Dragon to help strengthen your dragon pet?"

"I have that idea."

Bai Qi nodded. This was indeed one of his goals, and he could also take a look at the burial place of the Dark Emperor of the South Sea.

In this day and age, perhaps more information can be found inside.

"That's perfect. We'll be going to the South China Sea anyway, so it'll be convenient to go there on the way."

As he spoke, the Dragon Emperor suddenly took off his magnificent robe, revealing a casual outfit underneath, and stretched lazily without any regard for his image.

"Phew~ I can finally relax a bit."

The Dragon Emperor patted Bai Qi on the shoulder and said, "I'm going to rest for a while. You three can make yourselves at home."

"Oh, by the way, there are quite a few unwanted materials in the Crystal Palace. Take them if you think they're useful."

"Anyway, it'll all be gone in a while..."

After saying this, the Dragon Emperor disappeared from the spot, as did his several dragon pets. Only the golden dragon that had led the way, the Dragon Emperor's youngest son, and the Third Prince remained.

"Big brother, were you recruited by Dad to fight with me?"

The little boy ran up to Bai Qi and looked at him curiously.

"fight?"

Seeing the little boy's serious expression, Bai Qi was both amused and exasperated. Just as he was about to respond, Beta suddenly spoke up.

Awoo awoo...

(Human, I don't recommend you fight this little guy...)

"Hmm? Is there something wrong with him?"

Awoo awoo!

(It's not just a problem, it's a huge problem!)

As soon as he finished speaking, Bai Qi felt his vision change, and he realized that Beta had shared his soul vision.

The two humanoid souls closest to Bai Qi were undoubtedly Bai Qiucha and Zhuge Chen.

Opposite Bai Qi were six dragon souls, one large and five small, as well as an excessively large divine dragon soul!

"The Dragon Emperor's soul is actually a dragon soul?"

Bai Qi withdrew from the soul's vision and then entered it again. After switching back and forth several times, he finally confirmed that the soul of the Dragon Emperor's youngest son was actually a dragon soul.

Moreover, judging from the size of the soul, it is probably not an ordinary legendary dragon soul.

Demigod? Or mythology?

"What is this? A powerful being reborn? A dragon soul reincarnated? Or is this another act of the Dragon Emperor?"

Bai Qi stroked his chin, and the way he looked at the Dragon Emperor's youngest son underwent a dramatic change.

"Little friend, I admit I can't beat you, but how about I introduce you to a friend?"

"Friend? Can I beat them up?"

The little boy went straight to the point, leaving Bai Qi and his group speechless.

"You only beat up enemies; friends are there to play with you."

Bai Qi patiently explained and then summoned Jeta.

"His name is Jeta, and he's an elemental creature. You can play outside the Crystal Palace, as long as you don't destroy it. You can play whatever you want."

Bai Qi smiled as he looked at the little baby, while secretly giving Jetta instructions.

"Jeta, try to test this little kid's strength... emmm... remember to protect yourself..."

The appearance of such a special doll here at this time is definitely not a coincidence, and Bai Qi felt that he needed to learn more about it.
