God King Rahu took the three-legged man and left the Starry Cave.
In the spacious and bright hall, the Black Dragon Emperor was still leaning on the jade table, drinking tea and eating divine fruit.
However, his cynical smile and eyes disappeared.
Instead, there was a calm and thoughtful expression.
There was no one else in the hall, and the most loyal guards were guarding the outside.
Here, he is not afraid of anyone eavesdropping, and his state of mind is very relaxed and comfortable.
After thinking for a long time, he frowned and murmured to himself: "Old Tianlong, you have always been the clearest and most transparent among the five of us, and also the most respected.
But you actually left us with such a big question before you died.
What did you think? What did you realize?
Could it be that... Heaven gave you instructions? Or did you see the answer to the mystery?
Why can't you think about it and commit suicide?
Isn’t it good to live on? You still have more than 60,000 years to live!
That boy Long Tian is very good, but I can't understand why he is so favored and valued by you?
No wonder we all suspect that he is your illegitimate son, no one can understand what you are doing!"
The Black Dragon Emperor muttered a lot to himself, and his brows furrowed more and more tightly.
After a long time, he seemed to have made up his mind, and his brows relaxed.
"Forget it, while Long Tian is back this time, I will observe and study him carefully to see what is so special about him!
I hope the answer to the mystery in my heart can be found through him."
The Black Dragon Emperor sighed, then waved his hand to put away the jade case, turned around and left the hall.
After a while, he returned to the palace and called the maid to dress him.
This time when I go to Star Source Continent, as usual, I still have to dress up.
What identity should I pretend to be?
…
The sun sets and night falls.
On the surface, the City of Ten Thousand Demons looks peaceful, but in fact it has a solemn atmosphere and is heavily defended.
With Ten Thousand Monsters City as the center, a total of five lines of defense were deployed within a radius of one million miles, with hundreds of scouts scattered around.
The entire dark water area is also under the control of the Ten Thousand Demons Alliance and is in a state of tension and alert.
The intelligence system of the Ten Thousand Demons Alliance is already operating at full capacity.
Once a large number of powerful God Kings enter the dark waters, the Ten Thousand Demons Alliance will be informed immediately.
In the City of Ten Thousand Demons, in the exclusive palace of the alliance leader.
Ji Tianxing has returned and is sitting on the Taishi chair in the study, listening to the reports from the housekeeper and the chief elder.
A quarter of an hour ago, the head of internal affairs reported on the defense situation of Ten Thousand Monsters City and the response plan in case of an emergency.
The Great Elder Hu Xinyue reported on the peripheral situation of the Ten Thousand Demons Alliance and its layout on the Star Source Continent.
After listening to the two people's reports, Ji Tianxing nodded to express his satisfaction and said earnestly: "Over the past year, you have made so many arrangements and deployments, and you have not even had time to heal.
Your merits and hard work will be kept in my heart."
The housekeeper and Hu Xinyue hurriedly saluted and said: "It is our duty to share the young master's worries. We dare not take credit."
The two parties exchanged a few words and asked each other about their current situation.
Then, the housekeeper and Hu Xinyue relaxed and chatted with Ji Tianxing.
"Although the leader of the alliance has not returned yet, the young master can come back and personally take charge of Ten Thousand Demons City. Now the military's morale is determined."
"Young Master, this old slave has never understood that the chess pieces and forces under Jin Yuan Dragon Emperor have basically been dealt with by us.
He quietly returned to Star Source Continent this time. No news was released, and no one took the initiative to seek refuge. Why were dozens of God Kings gathered around him?
Where did those powerful God Kings come from?"
Ji Tianxing frowned and thought for a moment, then said calmly: "Actually, these are all within my expectations.
Jinyuan Dragon Emperor has been operating in Xingyuan Continent for more than 20,000 years, how can he be overthrown so easily?
The forces and powerful people eliminated by this alliance should be just some of his chess pieces.
There must be some chess pieces hidden deep inside that we haven't investigated yet."
After a pause, he added: "In addition, Jinyuan Dragon Emperor has been outside the territory for nearly a thousand years, and may be active in some star fields.
With his strength and means, it shouldn't be difficult to win over a group of powerful God Kings outside the territory."
Although, the housekeeper and Hu Xinyue have never been to the outer star field.
But they also heard from the leader of the Rahu Alliance that the nine star fields were extremely vast, with at least tens of thousands of worlds, large and small.
Although no peak god-king has yet been born in those worlds, there are more ordinary god-kings than in the dragon world.
The two of them were convinced of Ji Tianxing's speculation.
"So, the Jinyuan Dragon Emperor brought back a group of god kings from outside the territory?"
"Since he has brought people from other star regions, there will definitely be more than a few dozen god kings, and there must be a large number of god king masters!"
Ji Tianxing nodded slightly and said in a solemn tone: "In other words, the power currently controlled by Jinyuan Dragon Emperor is enough to destroy the Ten Thousand Demons Alliance, so we must be careful!"
Hu Xinyue thought of something and reminded her: "Young Master, yesterday the secret agents under Ao Jinying received news that someone was secretly spreading the news about the return of the Jinyuan Dragon Emperor.
Although, this kind of rumor has been spread countless times in the past year.
But this time, the news seems to be true."
Ji Tianxing frowned and said, "Go on."
Hu Xinyue continued her analysis: "Although, the forces on the mainland and the powerful God Kings have already become numb after hearing too much similar news.
The news hasn't spread yet, and many people don't believe it even if they know it.
However, the news will eventually spread, and as the alliance shrinks its defenses and strengthens its alert... these changes will confirm the news.
When the time comes, the Star Source Continent, which has just calmed down, will have undercurrents surging again.
I estimate that many of the old members of Xuanji Cave Sky will be ready to make a move, and even take the initiative to join the Jinyuan Dragon Emperor.
You see, should we monitor those domain lords and first-rate forces?
If they make any changes, assassinate them in advance?"
Ji Tianxing waved his hand and said: "This situation is inevitable. Now we must concentrate our efforts on dealing with Jin Yuan Dragon Emperor's counterattack. We cannot separate our manpower to do this.
No matter how the situation changes, no matter how the undercurrent surges, as long as we kill Jinyuan Dragon Emperor, all turmoil will subside."
The housekeeper said with a worried face: "But like this, our situation is too passive.
The initiative lies in the hands of Jin Yuan Dragon Emperor, we have no idea when he will counterattack and how he will attack."
Ji Tianxing raised his eyebrows, tapped his fingers on the table, and said: "So, if we want to take the initiative, there is only one way.
That is...to investigate the whereabouts of Jinyuan Dragon Emperor with all his strength!
Only by knowing his whereabouts can we take the initiative.
We can even assassinate Jinyuan Dragon Emperor after Alliance Leader Luo Hu comes back!
Once the assassination is successful, our alliance will easily win without having to fight those strong men!"
