Chapter 689: Chapter 551: Dragon Clan Civil War

"Huh?"

Long Yi was simply incredulous. He had been on edge for over a year, preparing nervously for a major confrontation, but now Dragon Island was fighting amongst themselves?

"What exactly is going on?" Long Yi hastily asked.

It turned out that when Long Yi’s identity had been exposed, it almost caused a panic across all of Dragon Island. For ten thousand years, the Dragon Clan had been carrying an unresolved curse. Why had the Giants chosen to return now?

Gulelie, leading the Dragon Clan, immediately decided to send all Dragon Clan warriors to assassinate Long Yi!

The reason was simple. Since Long Yi was a Giant, they could no longer rely on him to lift the curse. The Dragon Emperor’s order in the past had been very clear—to annihilate all Giants. And now, the appearance of a living Giant could very likely be a harbinger of more Giants. They believed killing this pioneer would prevent further Giants from appearing! Otherwise, if the Giants did return, it would be the doom of the Dragon Clan!

However, this reasoning was fiercely opposed by Asus and those Dragons siding with him. Asus argued that Long Yi did not bear any ill will towards the Dragon Clan. On the contrary, he had even helped some Dragons lift their curses, endowing a large number of White Dragons with extraordinary power. This was the perfect opportunity to make peace with the Giants! Was the Dragon Emperor’s order more important than lifting the curse?

But at this point, Gulelie was unable to hear anything else. He demanded the Dragon Clan to assemble its legions and slaughter Long Yi.

Asus, who had allowed Gulelie to have his way for a long time, fiercely opposed this. He said the Dragon Clan had already made one mistake; without an order from the Dragon Emperor, those Dragons who had stayed in the Human Realm should have the chance to correct this error. The status of Giants in the multiverse was unmatched by any other species. Due to their betrayal of their older brother, the Dragon Clan had become a laughingstock throughout the multiverse. If they did not take this opportunity to change their standing and continued to provoke the Giants, what future did the Dragon Clan have?

Stubborn to a fault, Gulelie refused to allow any negotiations.

In the end, Asus had no choice but to play his trump card.

This matter decided the future of the Dragon Clan. Any individual’s voice should be ignored at this time. The decision should be left to all Dragons.

So, Asus called for all Dragons to return to Dragon Island immediately. This led to all the Dragons around the world leaving in a group. Seizing this opportunity, Asus sent his most trusted councilor to tell Long Yi about the exposure of his Giant identity.

It was from this point that Long Yi disappeared.

Meanwhile, the Dragon Clan was thrown into chaos.

Naturally, this was due to the upheavals on Dragon Island.

One group of White Dragons fully supported Asus. They had benefited greatly from this war. With the terrifying offensive power of thirty-two times their Dragon Breath, a mere hundred thousand White Dragons had managed to defeat three hundred thousand Black Dragons—a result that showed all White Dragons the benefits of siding with the Giants. Back in the day when the Dragon Clan waged war against the Giants, this group of White Dragons had firmly opposed it. They had advocated for peace with the Giants and even tried to prevent the war. Although they did not succeed in preventing the war’s beginning, they had secretly helped the Giants escape from several real traps.

This opportunity further solidified the White Dragons’ stance in support of the Giants. Long Yi’s ability to increase power with a wave of his hand had brought them to realize the Giants’ potential and fearsomeness. Now, they absolutely could not stand in the wrong camp.

In contrast, almost all Black Dragons sided with Gulelie. If their previous attack on Long Yi was merely due to the Black Dragons’ inherent love for chaos, the situation was very different now. 𝚏𝐫𝚎𝗲𝕨𝐞𝐛𝕟𝚘𝐯𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝗺

In the war of the past, the Black Dragons were arguably the most enthusiastic participants. The Black Dragons were numerous within the Dragon Clan and held terrible temperaments. It was the Black Dragons who had despised the Giants the most, and they suffered the greatest losses in the war. They held a grudge because just recently, Long Yi had helped a mere one hundred thousand White Dragons defeat three hundred thousand Black Dragons—a monumental humiliation!

The discord between the Dragon races was clearly on display.

Because the Red Dragons had fought alongside the White Dragons in this war, they also joined the White Dragons’ side. However, the Green Dragons and Blue Dragons joined the Black Dragons.

The current situation was very similar to the one during the war with the Giants.

The group led by the Black Dragons assembled nearly a million troops.

However, there were merely three hundred thousand on the White Dragon’s side.

Despite such disparity, the alliance of White Dragons and Red Dragons did not retreat. Behind their confidence was the incredible strength of the White Dragons and Red Dragons, who did not place the Black Dragon Army in their eyes.

Of course, there were more than just these Dragons on Dragon Island. All of the millions of Dragons on Dragon Island got involved, and the Floating Island was used for tallying.

Shockingly, the result was a dead heat—50/50!

Not one more, nor one less!

The Black Dragon’s side couldn’t accept this result and accused the White Dragons of cheating. The White Dragons retorted that the Floating Island was clearly controlled by Gulelie so he must be manipulating the data.

As Dragons were not known for their patience, a scuffle broke out during an argument. Nobody knew who first raised a claw, but soon Dragon Breath was flying all over the place.

Then, Dragon Island fell into an unprecedentedly fierce battle.

Thanks to the presence of Giant technology, the Dragons on Dragon Island could easily revive, so none feared for their lives. The battle was extremely brutal, with the Dragon population fluctuating by hundreds of thousands each day.

Despite representing opposing forces, neither Asus nor Gulelie made any move. They simply hovered above the battlefield, coldly observing the fall of the giant dragons, with no intention of intervening. The councilors of the two factions stood behind them, anxious but too apprehensive to act.

Since the last civil war, which had destroyed the entire Dragon Island, neither had used their power in any altercation. They had lived for too long and their powers were unparalleled. If they acted, it was certain to cause endless consequences. The other party would not remain silent to the destruction caused by the collision of such forces; the devastation would be unprecedented and there would be no escape on the battlefield.

This could very well herald the destruction of the entire Dragon Clan!

Until one day, the numbers of the White Dragon Clan suddenly stopped increasing.

This is when the White Dragons realized something.

The machine that could let the Dragon Clan resurrect was no longer reviving the White Dragons!

This machine was built by the Giants and has the ability to infuse souls into vacant bodies. It has maintained the Dragon Clan’s souls for tens of thousands of years. However, all these devices, unexpectedly, were under Gulelie’s control!

However, the war had not stopped. In fact, it had intensified.

Both sides were already fighting in earnest.

The number of the White Dragons’ side began to decrease slowly, but the Black Dragons, due to their ability to resurrect, showed no change at all. The White Dragon and Red Dragon alliance was strong, but they couldn’t withstand such depletion!

"So, Chairman Asus heard you were here and sent me to ask if you have any solutions..." said the councilor nervously looking at Long Yi.

But Long Yi laughed: "You dragons are discussing whether to kill me or not, and I should consider helping you?"

The old dragon bowed his head deeply in embarrassment: "I’m sorry, I apologize..."

Long Yi thought for a while. Although what he said was true, the White Dragons, in history, had not only refrained from doing anything harmful to the Giants, but they had also gone all out to assist them earnestly. The White Dragons were undoubtedly innocent.

"However, since it’s Asus’s request, how could I just stand by? After all, the White Dragon Clan is also fighting for me!" Long Yi laughed.

"Lord Long Yi! You agreed!" The old dragon cried out with excitement.

"Yes, you go tell Asus to bring all the Dragon Clan members to Gentle Wind Plain, then things will surely change," Long Yi smiled and said.

After the old dragon left, only then did Long Yi’s heart start beating wildly. He wasn’t nervous, but excited! It had been so many years, was it finally time to confront the Dragon Clan?

Everyone around him had heard the old dragon’s words. Whether it was Ai Lin, Little Zi, Fine Gold Dragon Suolin, Ruosha, Isrile, or Wesley, Chef, the three Mosquito brothers, and the Celestial Clan warriors Nim and the Dandi sisters.

Everyone heard it loud and clear!

"Finally, it’s about to start!"

Long Yi immediately wrote many letters for the Dandi sisters to urgently deliver to the emperors of various countries. The emperors had just left and should not be far away. In their Blood Raven form, the Dandi sisters moved surprisingly fast and should catch up quickly.

For this day, Long Yi had been preparing for a full year. In this year, he had not rested for even a single day!

At this time, Kirei, the emperor of the White Dragon Empire, was dosing on the back of a dragon. This White Dragon was one of the few that stayed behind and belonged to one of Kirei’s guards. About a hundred plus White Dragons remained in the entire White Dragon Empire, as they had formed deep friendships with their dragon knights and were unwilling to leave. Voluntarily opting to continue serving the White Dragon Empire, the White Dragons were a rare breed who quite liked humans among the various dragon species.

The White Dragon wasn’t flying too fast, as the emperor of the White Dragon Empire, not just its dragon knight, was on its back.

Kirei’s head was filled with confusion, he himself not knowing what he was contemplating. All he knew was that various pieces of information chaoticly combined inside his head, preventing him from focusing.

Just then, shouts of warning came from the guards behind. Everyone saw a gigantic Blood Raven rushing towards them at high speed. A white stream streaked across its head due to its surpassing the speed of sound. Because of this, everyone saw the Blood Raven even before they heard the noise.

The Blood Raven decelerated mid-air and the boom of the sonic barrier followed.

Among those present, which dragon knights didn’t recognize the Blood Raven? As dragon knights, who hadn’t been tormented by the Dandi sisters?

However, the Blood Raven didn’t approach them but turned into a human to hand a note to a dragon knight guard, then transformed back into a Blood Raven and soared away. The dragon knight who received the note swallowed nervously before flying up from his Mount Dragon and handed the folded note to Kirei.

Kirei took the note, unfolded it and found only three words written inside.

"It’s starting." (To be continued. If you enjoy this work, you are welcome to come to qidian.com to vote and support, your support is my greatest motivation. Mobile users, please visit m.qidian.com to read.)
