Chapter 1214: Chapter 523: The Dragon Clan Seeks Aid! The Heavenly Court Acts! Qin Attacks!

At this moment, the atmosphere of the Dragon Palace in the East Sea was as dead silent as the calm before a storm, so oppressive that the Dragon King and his son could hardly breathe.

Aoguang and his son stood frozen on the spot, eyes filled with terror and panic, as if they had been placed under an immobilization spell.

”Report to the Dragon King!”

The Turtle Prime Minister’s face was extremely grim, his voice trembling due to nervousness: ”It’s absolutely true, the Yaksha patrolling the East Sea have discovered traces of the Qin Army.”

”It’s not just a few soldiers, but countless Qin troops covering the sky. They’ve already entered the sea, and their target is clearly our Dragon Palace!”

”I urge the Dragon King to make a swift decision!”

Between the words.

Anxiety was etched across the Turtle Prime Minister’s face.

”Why would the Qin Court choose this moment to act?”

Aoguang’s expression changed drastically, panicked: ”Are they truly unafraid of the great calamity?”

”Father.”

Ao Jia’s voice was also fraught with panic: ”In the past, the Qin Court dared to act directly against the Northern Territories controlled by the Heavenly Court during the descent of the great calamity, engaging in large-scale slaughter.”

”They completely disregard the great calamity, they’ve gone insane!”

Ao Jia was very scared at this moment.

”Quick!”

Aoguang snapped back to reality, shouting frantically: ”Quickly report to the Heavenly Court, beseech the Heavenly Court to swiftly dispatch troops to aid our Dragon Clan!”

”Inform the Heavenly Court that the Qin Court has launched soldiers against our Dragon Clan!”

”Also... also, immediately assemble our Dragon Clan’s Navy, prepare for battle!”

”Sound the Dragon Gathering Bell, urge the Dragon Clans of the other Three Seas to swiftly dispatch troops for reinforcement!”

”Hurry!”

These were the countermeasures Aoguang could think of.

In the face of the Qin Court’s invasion.

He couldn’t help but recall what Zhao Feng said after entering the Dragon Abyss: if the Dragon Clan was unwilling to submit to the Qin, then someday the Qin would no longer accept the Dragon Clan’s allegiance.

Past actions, today’s consequences!

Heavenly Court and Qin Court.

Only one choice could be made.

And they, the Dragon Clan, chose the Heavenly Court.

”Yes!”

The Turtle Prime Minister dared not waste a single moment, hurriedly turned and rushed out to seek aid from the heavens.

With the Turtle Prime Minister’s departure.

Aoguang paced back and forth within the East Palace, his steps brisk and panicked, making a dull sound across the floor.

With each step he took, the anxiety in his heart increased.

”Father.”

Ao Jia’s voice was full of fear: ”Can we really fend off the Qin Army? Even the Heavenly Soldiers and Generals of the Heavenly Court aren’t a match for the Qin Army, us...”

Upon saying this.

Despair filled Ao Jia’s eyes, and his voice became smaller.

He appeared very insecure.

Not only him, but Aoguang was the same.

”We can only wait for reinforcement from the Heavenly Court now.”

Aoguang’s voice was low and helpless, for he knew well the vast difference in strength between the Dragon Clan and the Qin Army, and that the Dragon Clan alone could not possibly contend with the Qin Army.

”But... but what if the Heavenly Court doesn’t come to rescue? What then?” Ao Jia asked anxiously, his eyes filled with intense unease.

This question felt like a heavy hammer, striking hard at Aoguang’s heart.

His complexion instantly turned pale, his footsteps halted abruptly, momentarily at a loss for words, unsure of how to respond.

The Heavenly Court has been defeated by the Qin Court multiple times. Aoguang himself had no confidence in whether they would dare to risk dispatching troops to rescue the Dragon Clan once again.

”They will!”

Aoguang took a deep breath, trying to make his voice sound firmer: ”They’ll surely come. Our Dragon Clan has been loyal to the Heavenly Court for many years; if they don’t come, who else will serve the Heavenly Court in the future?”

Clearly.

His words carried a tone of self-reassurance, yet his slightly trembling hands betrayed his inner anxiety.

Faced with the cruelty of the Qin Court!

If the Dragon Clan really couldn’t hold on?

What would be the outcome?

About this.

Aoguang was filled with unease.

But to consider, the fate of the Dragon Clan would surely be no better than the Immortal Sect and Immortals of the North Domain of East Sheng Divine Continent in the past.

”Yes.”

However.

Ao Jia nodded, his worries slightly eased, not noticing his father’s anomaly.

”Hopefully, my uncles will arrive in time; otherwise, our East Sea is truly in danger.”

Ao Jia murmured to himself, his voice full of worry.

After all, they were up against the most formidable Qin Court of our age, which had even inflicted great losses on the Heavenly Court, costing them a continent nurtured over countless years.

This kind of fear was like a shadow, looming over their hearts.

At this moment!

The atmosphere inside the Palace of the Polestar in the Heavenly Court was solemn and respectful.

The Immortals and Gods stood arrayed on either side, adorned in their splendid Immortal Robes, their expressions respectful.

”Your Majesty, something terrible has happened!”

The Turtle Prime Minister, looking panicked, rushed into the hall, kneeling with a thud, his voice filled with fear: ”The Qin Court has launched troops against our Dragon Clan in the East Sea; please dispatch soldiers swiftly to rescue our Dragon Clan, Your Majesty!”

With these words, the previously silent Palace of the Polestar immediately burst into an uproar.

The Immortals and Gods whispered amongst themselves, expressions filled with shock and concern.

”What? The Qin Court launched troops against your Dragon Clan?”

On the Jade Emperor’s previously calm face, the color changed instantly, his eyes widened as he looked at the Turtle Prime Minister in disbelief.

This sudden news indeed caught the Jade Emperor off guard.

The Qin Court had maintained a facade of tranquility for many years; why would they suddenly launch an attack on the East Sea Dragon Clan?

The great calamity was near!

”Your Majesty, it’s absolutely true!”

The Turtle Prime Minister raised his head, his eyes full of urgency: ”Countless Qin soldiers have entered the sea; they are advancing fiercely, and our Dragon Clan is in grave danger!”

”I implore Your Majesty to swiftly dispatch soldiers to rescue.”

”Otherwise, with our Dragon Clan’s strength, we cannot possibly withstand the Qin Army.”

The Turtle Prime Minister pleaded loudly.

The Jade Emperor did not respond immediately; he looked grave and his brows were furrowed as he waved his hand, summoning the Haotian Mirror.

A surge of mana flowed from his fingertips, injected into the Haotian Mirror. The mirror’s surface flickered with light and soon revealed the scene over the East Sea.

Only to see waves surging ferociously over the East Sea, like maddened beasts, continuously raging, with fierce gales and tumultuous winds, incredibly terrifying.
