Chapter 2028: Chapter 2114: The Nine Dragons Stolen
Wanxiang True Monarch moved with divine power, about to seize the nine mini Dragon Souls. However, at that moment, his face suddenly changed—
"Swoosh"
A flash of light, and the nine Dragon Souls within the cauldron suddenly disappeared.
Someone in the shadows robbed them!
Robbed right in front of Wanxiang True Monarch!
Wanxiang True Monarch was furious and unleashed a divine skill toward the void.
Wanxiang True Monarch was incredibly powerful; as soon as he acted, he locked the aura within a ten-mile radius.
The divine skill he launched toward the void seemed to hit something, dispersing a tenth of its power, while the remaining nine-tenths forged ahead relentlessly.
The other eight City Lords saw this scene and acted together, converging their divine powers.
These eight powers collided with the furious divine power of Wanxiang True Monarch.
"Boom."
A loud noise echoed as the two forces turned into nothingness within the void.
The eight City Lords all gasped in surprise, as the power of Wanxiang True Monarch’s furious divine skill was indeed too strong.
Only with their combined efforts were they able to disperse it completely; if just one City Lord had faced it, they might have been gravely wounded on the spot.
Yet even so, the Dwarf Clan City Lord turned pale and stared at Wanxiang True Monarch, dumbfounded.
The battle armor he wore was the strongest in defense among the nine City Lords, but the recent attack frightened him.
The other eight City Lords didn’t react at all to what had happened. The nine Dragon Souls had already been suppressed; what was Wanxiang True Monarch doing?
They looked at Wanxiang True Monarch’s furious gaze, and with divine sense scanned the cauldron, their faces changed dramatically, "The Nine Dragons are gone. What’s going on?"
The Nine Dragons Divine Cauldron was named for the Nine Dragons, and now that they were gone, it would lose its significance.
However, the loss of the Nine Dragons Divine Cauldron had minor impact on the other eight City Lords, but the once-every-fifty-years Nine Dragons Ascension and the once-every-three-thousand-years Divine Skills inheritance...
One was for ranking positions, the other for enhancing power; losing them made their hearts slightly uncomfortable.
"Wanxiang City Lord, this..."
One City Lord spoke, the greatest loss from the disappearance of the Nine Dragons was of course for Wanxiang City.
The cauldron bore the presence of a fierce dragon, which in turn generated divinity.
This divine radiance greatly accelerated the cultivation speed of practitioners in the City Lord Manor.
Once the fierce nature disappeared, the cauldron no longer deserved the name Divine Cauldron.
"Find, find the person who took them, grind him into dust for daring to take my nine Dragon Souls right under my nose. I want to flay his skin, strip his tendons, and imprison his Divine Soul for eternity."
Wanxiang True Monarch was furious beyond measure.
"What? Someone stole those nine Dragon Souls, which are the souls of the Ancient Evil Dragon. Despite being sealed in the cauldron for countless ages, their power would only have increased..." The City Lord suddenly realized, but became worried.
A master capable of stealing the Nine Dragon Dragon Soul right under Wanxiang True Monarch’s eyes must be formidable; if found, the consequences might be unimaginable.
His heart trembled, and he involuntarily retreated a few steps, sweeping his divine sense through the void.
"His power is less than yours, what are you afraid of?" Wanxiang True Monarch looked at the King Realm City Lord in front of him with disappointment.
Seeing the confused expressions of this City Lord and several others, Wanxiang True Monarch sneered, "He only used a heavy treasure to escape from my sight. His power is below that of a King."
Upon hearing this, everyone held their breath. That heavy treasure could steal and escape from Wanxiang True Monarch, a reverse heaven artifact. If obtained, wouldn’t it be wonderful?
The eight City Lords showed greed in their eyes.
"He was just hit by me and should already be hurt; whoever finds him will be heavily rewarded. Whoever gets the heavy treasure will keep it, I will not compete," Wanxiang True Monarch said to the eight City Lords and countless Supreme beings.
His words were like a bomb thrown to the crowd, instantly causing the people to boil with excitement.
The breaths of the eight City Lords grew rapid; Wanxiang True Monarch rarely made such heavy promises.
"Wanxiang City Lord, I have a clue."
Wei Yixiao frowned, recalling events in Yellow Wind City, and smiled slyly.
"Speak,"
Wanxiang True Monarch looked at Wei Yixiao, feeling irritated. If it hadn’t been for his chatter earlier, would he have failed to catch that thief?
"Recently, in Yellow Wind City, a thief appeared, brazenly stealing from both big and small shops as he pleased. The city’s guards tried to intervene but couldn’t catch him."
Wei Yixiao spoke, feeling smug inside, as only he knew the thief was female, something Wanxiang True Monarch apparently missed.
This was indeed a crucial clue.
"What? This thief appeared in Yellow Wind City? Could it be he originally targeted Lord Wei and followed along to Wanxiang City, causing this calamity?"
The Dwarf Clan City Lord spoke, his stature short but voice loud.
This City Lord spoke impulsively, according to his instinct.
Normally no one would agree, but now, once he spoke, others quickly echoed him.
"Makes sense, makes sense. It seems this thief is the one Lord Wei mentioned." Another City Lord spoke in a sarcastic tone.
Despite his cunning, Wei Yixiao hadn’t foreseen this development and hurriedly tried to explain.
Yet, Wanxiang True Monarch released a burst of might, pressing down on him, "Tell me everything you know."
No questioning, no resistance, his word was law.
Wei Yixiao’s face became immensely pale.
Once a smile, now he wanted to cry; he’d played himself.
"As the leader of the Nine Dragons Ascension guardians, I feel you are being too extreme. I have a few words to share; things are not as you believe."
A voice came through.
Wei Yixiao turned to see Chen Nan smiling at him.
He shivered all over.
But he grasped at this last hope, wishing to change Wanxiang True Monarch’s perception of him.
"Chen Nan, your power approaches that of a Supreme King, and your divine sense covers the entire city. You know better than anyone what happened; explain it to Wanxiang City Lord."
Although Wei Yixiao hated Chen Nan, he now hoped he’d speak up before the nine City Lords.
Chen Nan approached Wanxiang True Monarch and scanned the other few City Lords, sharp intent in his eyes, "Before delving into this matter, I believe the seniors are curious about why Lord Wei wants me dead so badly?"
