Chapter 608: Did Lin Xuan Bow His Head?
Upon hearing this, everyone was dumbfounded.
This kid had to be insane. Daring to provoke Fang Cangsong at a time like this—wasn’t he afraid of a fate worse than death?
"What a fool," the True Dragon Sect Leader snorted coldly.
Even he had been suppressed, so how could this kid possibly turn the tide? What a joke. He refused to believe Lin Xuan could withstand Fang Cangsong’s attack. In his view, infuriating Fang Cangsong would lead to a fate more miserable than death itself.
Fang Cangsong’s face grew dark. He glared at Lin Xuan, gritting his teeth as he spoke, "Kid, you’re at death’s door and you still dare to act so arrogantly? The height of foolishness."
"I’ll capture you right now, skin you alive, pull out your tendons, and knock out all your teeth! I want to see if you’ll still dare to be so arrogant then!"
At these words, everyone’s scalp tingled. They could already imagine how tragic Lin Xuan’s end would be. The members of the Ye Family were utterly desperate, and Ye Qingwu was already dissolved in tears. The people from the Alchemy Alliance also clenched their fists, filled with indignation but completely powerless. Even if they joined forces, they would be no match for Fang Cangsong.
Fang Cangsong strode purposefully toward Lin Xuan.
At the same time, the Snake King’s voice sounded in Lin Xuan’s mind. Young Master, should I step in and eliminate him?
No, don’t act yet, Lin Xuan responded. I’m worried he might have formidable Alien Demons backing him. If you reveal yourself prematurely, it will be troublesome. You only need to guard me at the critical moment.
Lin Xuan was unsure just how deep the connection between Fang Cangsong and the Alien Demons went. If there were other hidden masters behind him, things would get difficult. Therefore, he wasn’t prepared to play all his trump cards just yet.
As for what to do, I’ve already figured it out, he thought. I’ll take this opportunity to snatch the Dragon Pearl from Fang Cangsong.
Lin Xuan had already collected four Dragon Pearls, and the very last one was in Fang Cangsong’s possession. He had originally been planning to seek Fang Cangsong out, but he never expected the man to deliver himself right to his doorstep. Since that was the case, Lin Xuan wouldn’t be polite.
With this in mind, Lin Xuan waved his hand. Four rays of light flew out of his Storage Ring, hovering before him. They were four fist-sized pearls, each one crystal clear and radiating a terrifying power.
The moment the four pearls appeared, everyone’s attention was captivated. The members of the True Dragon Sect stared with wide eyes, while people from the other great families and sects gasped in astonishment.
"Such terrifying pearls!"
"What are those?"
"They possess such strong Dragon Dao Power!"
Upon seeing them, the True Dragon Sect Leader exclaimed, "Dragon Pearls! They’re Dragon Pearls! You actually have four Dragon Pearls!"
He was utterly shocked. He knew Lin Xuan had a Dragon Pearl, but he never imagined he had so many. It was unbelievable.
"What? They’re really Dragon Pearls!"
The True Dragon Sect was in an uproar. Avarice gleamed in the elders’ eyes. These were treasures! If they could absorb the energy within, their Dragon Dao Power could increase dramatically in a short amount of time, and their strength would undergo an earth-shattering transformation.
In the distance, the people from the various other families and sects also cried out in alarm when they saw the scene.
"They’re actually Dragon Pearls!"
"This kid actually has items of legend!"
"And he has four of them!"
"That’s incredible!"
"When did he collect them all?"
Everyone was going crazy. Even the members of the Ye Family were stunned, never having imagined Lin Xuan possessed such treasures.
The Alchemy Alliance Leader was puzzled. Why would Young Master Lin bring out the Dragon Pearls now?
"I know," said Wan Er, who was standing beside him. "Young Master Lin must be admitting defeat. He wants to hand over the Dragon Pearls to save his own life."
So that was it. The crowd had a sudden realization.
The Alliance Leader laughed heartily. "That’s great! Young Master Lin has finally come to his senses."
The Ye Family also breathed a collective sigh of relief. Although Lin Xuan was bowing his head, they didn’t feel ashamed at all. On the contrary, they were happy. After all, there was no shame in yielding to a Grandmaster. More importantly, by yielding, Lin Xuan could survive. With his talent, as long as he lived, his future would be limitless.
Clan Leader Ye smiled. "It seems Young Master Lin has indeed seen reason."
Madam Ye heaved a sigh of relief. "If this boy had just taken out the Dragon Pearls earlier, he would have saved us all this worry."
Ye Ruxue pursed her lips. I thought Lin Xuan would be defiant to the very end, but he still caved after all.
Ye Qingwu smiled through her tears. This was wonderful; Lin Xuan was going to live.
The members of the other families and sects buzzed with discussion.
"As expected, everyone is afraid of death. Even someone as powerful as the Young Emperor, Lin Xuan, must ultimately bow his head."
When Fang Cangsong saw the four Dragon Pearls, his eyes lit up instantly, and his body began to tremble with excitement.
Four Dragon Pearls... plus the one in my hand, the set will be complete!
This was fantastic. Truly fantastic. After so many years, he was finally gathering all the Dragon Pearls.
He laughed boisterously. "Kid, are you finally admitting defeat? Finally willing to take out the Dragon Pearls? If you knew it would come to this, you shouldn’t have caused trouble in the first place. Since you’ve obediently presented the Dragon Pearls, I will be lenient. I won’t torture you; I’ll grant you a quick death."
As he spoke, Fang Cangsong waved his hand. A blue light flew out and hovered in the air. It was the fifth Dragon Pearl.
"The Water Dragon Pearl!"
Seeing this, the crowd gasped again. Fang Cangsong had a Dragon Pearl as well.
"Heavens, are the Five Element Dragon Pearls all gathered?"
"It’s said that each of these Dragon Pearls possesses mighty power. Once all five are gathered, they’ll unleash an even more mysterious force."
Fang Cangsong threw his head back and laughed. "That’s right! The legends say that whoever gathers the five Dragon Pearls can become a Dragon Warrior! HAHAHAHA! I’ve finally gathered them all! I’m about to become a Dragon Warrior!"
His booming voice echoed between heaven and earth. The surrounding crowd was stunned.
What? A Dragon Warrior!
Was the legendary Dragon Warrior about to appear again? Was Fang Cangsong really going to become one?
In that instant, everyone was overwhelmed with shock, envy, and frenzy. The members of the True Dragon Sect were practically sick with jealousy. Becoming a Dragon Warrior was their ultimate dream. But the path to becoming a Dragon Warrior had been severed; no one could achieve it anymore. Let alone Dragon Island, there were no Dragon Warriors left in the entire world. But now, they were about to witness the birth of one with their own eyes.
The True Dragon Sect Leader’s eyes were red with envy. He wanted nothing more than to snatch those five Dragon Pearls. However, feeling the sealed power of Dragon Island within him, he didn’t dare make a move. With his current strength, he was no match for Fang Cangsong. If he dared to try and take them, he would surely die.
Damn it! the True Dragon Sect Leader roared in his heart, utterly furious yet helpless.
"Kid, I’ll be helping myself to these four Dragon Pearls, then," Fang Cangsong cackled, extending a large hand to grab them.
Meanwhile, a smile curled on Lin Xuan’s lips. My purpose in showing the four Dragon Pearls was to lure out the one held by Fang Cangsong. As expected, he revealed the Water Dragon Pearl. Now that all five are here, it’s time to act!
He issued a command. Snake King, snatch the Water Dragon Pearl!
