Peerless Divine Doctor

Chapter 2020: Chapter 2021: The Right Candidate

At this moment, the Wandering Dragon King and the Floating Dragon King sat facing each other, while the Dragon Kings of the other two clans sat beside them.

”I say, Wandering Dragon King, I always feel you’re going to privately take in that kid, Ye Luo. We agreed, after his body recovers, I’ll also choose a princess from the clan for him. After all, the Dragon Emperor’s bloodline can’t just stay within your Wandering Dragon Clan alone!”

The Floating Dragon King, known for his booming voice, spat as he spoke, spraying saliva onto the Wandering Dragon King’s face.

Around them, some Dragon Kings tried hard not to laugh; others frowned. Simply put, the Floating Dragon King was quite the anomaly within the Dragon Clan.

As everyone knows, when mentioning the Dragon Clan, one usually thinks of dignity and elegance, even a touch of aloofness. But this Floating Dragon King, though he had dignity, was rather over the top, akin to a bandit leader, and grace or aloofness didn’t suit him at all.

Upon hearing this, the Wandering Dragon King frowned, ”What do you mean by that? Haven’t we already reached an agreement? When have I, the Wandering Dragon King, ever reneged on my word?”

If it weren’t for the fact that the other party was the Floating Dragon King, the Wandering Dragon King would have slapped him by now.

The Floating Dragon King didn’t mind and casually nodded, ”There’s another issue, though. This body swap technique has its flaws. After all, the kid’s power is too weak, and his physical body is extremely fragile. Even a wisp of the Dragon Emperor’s Dragon Soul is too much for him to bear. We were careless!”

Ao Long, sitting to the side, sighed, ”Indeed. At first, we only considered the fusion of the Dragon Soul with his soul. Now that it’s reacting with his body, we managed to temporarily suppress it with mana, but once this rejection power erupts, that’ll be his death sentence!”

In the grand hall, Ao Long had the closest relationship with Ye Luo, so he had been worried sick these past few days, visiting old friends and poring over ancient texts, trying to find a solution to this problem.

”Ye Luo naturally cannot come to harm. If he falls, then the Dragon Emperor’s bloodline power disperses. How many years would it take to nurture another Dragon Emperor’s blood? Our Dragon Clan cannot afford such a loss!” the Wandering Dragon King said, his eyes gleaming.

Then, he looked at Ao Long.

”You’ve caused chaos all over Dragon Island these past few days; have you come up with any solutions?”

Upon hearing this, Ao Long blushed. In terms of status or age, he wasn’t much different from the Wandering Dragon King. Being spoken to like this made him a bit embarrassed.

But for Ye Luo to survive, he didn’t mind these things.

”I did find a solution, but! It’s a bit tricky to implement!” Ao Long said with a troubled expression.

”My goodness, you old thing, just get on with it and speak! All this hesitation is unbearable!” the Floating Dragon King grumbled impatiently.

Regarding Ye Luo’s issue, everyone now had one thought in common: to ensure he survives at all costs and preserve the Dragon Emperor’s bloodline!

”The reason for this rejection is that he’s in a Human Race body. Although he’s cultivated a semi-dragon form, it’s still vastly different from a true Dragon Clan being, let alone the Dragon Emperor, hence the rejection. To eliminate this rejection and achieve a perfect fusion of soul and body, we must strengthen his body, using the Dragon Emperor’s original body to do so. Only then can we achieve optimal results!”

At first, hope filled the Dragon Kings’ eyes, but as they listened, they began to frown.

”You old thing, isn’t this nonsense? The Dragon Emperor has been gone for how long now? His body isn’t even with the Dragon Clan anymore! You just got us excited for nothing!” the Floating Dragon King shouted discontentedly.

”You can’t say it like that. If the Dragon Emperor’s Dragon Soul exists, then I refuse to believe the body was destroyed! At the very least, some part of it should exist. Although this may sound harsh, our Dragon Clan, when slaughtered, often ends up like this. And since the Kunwu Sect has the Dragon Emperor’s Dragon Soul, who can guarantee that his body doesn’t also exist?” Ao Long said calmly.

The Dragon Kings present fell silent.

The Dragon Clan, despite their pride and formidable power, had enemies, and there were several special forces thriving on hunting them, as every part of a dragon was treasure. Even the weakest dragons could be used for artifact refining and alchemy, not to mention a pinnacle existence like the Dragon Emperor.

”Hmph, well said. Then let’s just storm the Kunwu Sect and capture their damned Sect Master to question him!” the Floating Dragon King roared loudly.

The Wandering Dragon King glanced at him but didn’t engage.

This guy was just putting on an act of madness. Imagine, could someone vying with him for the position of Dragon Emperor, with neither gaining the upper hand for so long, be someone so impulsive?

Clearly, beneath the Floating Dragon King’s wild surface lay a meticulous mind.

”We obviously won’t let the Kunwu Sect off, but the power behind them is too strong for us to act openly. However, Ao Long’s reasoning also stands. Whether it’s for fusion with Ye Luo or for our Dragon Clan’s dignity, we must retrieve the Dragon Emperor’s body!” the Wandering Dragon King stated.

”Therefore, we must select someone to thoroughly investigate this!” the Wandering Dragon King continued, squinting his eyes.

The Dragon Kings then began recommending candidates.

The Dragon Clan never lacked talent! The clan was full of elite warriors, but the final decision rested with the two Dragon Kings.

”Regarding this candidate, I have a proposal: Ye Luo! Don’t forget, he’s now fused with the Dragon Emperor’s Dragon Soul. Although the Dragon Emperor’s consciousness isn’t there, within a certain distance from the Dragon Emperor’s body, there’s a natural sensing. So, he’s the most suitable! Plus, being from the Human Race, it’ll be easier for him to enter the Kunwu Sect!” Ao Long suggested with a smile.

”But Ye Luo is precious now. If something happens to him, won’t the Wandering Dragon King and I lose this perfect match for our daughters?” the Floating Dragon King frowned.

The Dragon Kings all shared this concern. After all, Ye Luo carried the Dragon Emperor’s bloodline!

”I have some understanding of this Ye Luo kid. He’s quite sharp. As long as we use Great Magical Power to protect him, with his skills, there shouldn’t be any major issues!” Ao Long smiled.

At this moment, Ye Luo was meditating in his room. These days, he had become even more obsessive, relentlessly cultivating.

Even the little princess who took care of his daily needs barely heard more than a few words from him.
