Forsaken Immortals

Chapter 217 - The King's Master

"Impossible!" The voice of the leading expert reverberated through the silence, causing the ground to shake. The power that was unleashed from his body was domineering and out of control, but it was not aimed at Li Moyun.

The energy that had exploded from his body was an uncontrollable reaction to the news he had heard, and Li Moyun could see that the expert was genuinely shocked and in disbelief, hence losing the ability to control his aura.

The expert who stood on the right side of the leader took a step forward and waved his hand. Although he was weaker than the leader, he was still capable of dispersing the energy that had rushed out from the aura.

It was not before the dispersion of the energy that the leader slowly got his emotions under control. He cleared his throat, but he did not act against Li Moyun. The strange actions had caused both Xiao Long and Li Moyun to feel somewhat confused.

They were clearly here for the sake of Xiao Long. From the expression in their eyes, it was also evident that they felt Li Moyun was not pleasing to them. In fact, the hatred that gleamed in their eyes was not hidden at all, but they did not act on this hatred, making both man and dragon somewhat surprised.

The three experts glanced at one another before they each took a deep breath and steadied their emotions.

"So, you are the master of our King?" The leader had calmed down and spent some extra time looking at Li Moyun.

In fact, although they came from the Wushi Continent, they had never seen a man with a better aura than this man. His eyes were deep as a bottomless abyss, and one could sense the breathtaking domineering soul hidden deep within.

His facial features naturally needed no additional comments; he was amongst the most attractive men they had ever seen. Even when he just stood there, all alone, and facing three experts much stronger than himself, he still remained calm, and a strong sense of royalty was pressing down on them.

These experts were all from the Golden Dragon Clan, and they had been Elders of the clan for thousands of years. They had been picked amongst many to become the dao protectors of their King, but when they met up, they found that they were a step too late. The King had already contracted with a human.

It was indeed possible for them to forcefully remove this contract, but they could sense from Xiao Long that if they did this, then their King would never accept the Golden Dragon Clan.

The leader had a conflicting expression on his face, but in the end, he could only grit his teeth before bowing towards Li Moyun.

"I have seen the King’s Master!"

When his words were heard by the other two experts, they too were stunned for a moment before they copied his gesture, stunning both Li Moyun and Xiao Long completely.

As they looked at one another, they noticed the disbelief within the other’s eyes. Neither had expected it to be this simple, but Li Moyun quickly understood.

It was not that these experts did not hate him; they just put Xiao Long’s opinion above their own. They were competent followers.

"Please tell me what your plans are." Li Moyun understood that since these experts respected Xiao Long and his opinions, they truly wanted what was best for him. Since this was the case, he too wanted to help this little dragon as much as possible.

The experts were surprised when they noticed that this young man had not tried to use his position to overwhelm them, but instead asked for their plans. It was clear that he wanted to reach an agreement that both parties could approve of.

"We would like to bring the King back to the Golden Dragon Clan. When we are back, he will have to accept the final inheritance of his ancestors. This is a process which will take a long time, and I fear that it might even take years."

The leader was somewhat hesitant. He understood that Xiao Long needed to accept the inheritance as soon as possible, but he also understood that this little dragon would not be calm if he did not have Li Moyun by his side. This human was clearly his source of strength and comfort.

After contemplating for some time, the leader chose to make a decision on his own. "The King’s Master, why do you not follow us to the Golden Dragon Clan? If you come with us, we will be able to provide you with resources that cannot be found on this continent, and your progress will be much more rapid.

"While we do know that a true expert needs to encounter life and death struggles to emerge, we can promise your safety whenever you are in the Golden Dragon Clan, but when traveling the Wushi Continent, you will have to depend on yourself to not be bullied."

Li Moyun’s eyes narrowed. Had this been before he met Bai Rouyun, then he would have no qualms about leaving the continent, but now he felt worried. If he left, then what was she going to do?

It was clearly not only him who thought of this; even Xiao Long seemed to be feeling uncomfortable.

Bai Rouyun had been the one to locate his egg, and she had also been the one who had made it possible for him to find Li Moyun. The two of them owed the woman a lot, and if they left, it would seem as if they wished to abandon her for the sake of moving to an upper realm.
