Medic Martial Dragon King

Chapter 1714: Chapter 1717: In a Hurry

”Hehe, Ci Yi, if you don’t understand, don’t just speak nonsense. The so-called three divine artifacts guarding the family were merely bound through a blood recognition ritual.”

The man sneered again, looking at Emperor Ci Yi with contempt:

”Some spiritual artifacts can genuinely recognize their masters through blood recognition, but the Saint Dragon Sword will forever remain that person’s weapon, unless it’s bestowed by that person. Even if it undergoes blood recognition, it can only activate its first level of effects. Have you seen anyone from the Qingyuan Family purify soul power with the Saint Dragon Jade for others to absorb? Don’t they all practice with the Saint Dragon Jade themselves? That’s the essential difference!”

”Then...” Emperor Ci Yi opened his mouth, hesitated a moment, but didn’t speak.

”Have him activate the Saint Dragon Mirror! Once he does, leave the Saint Dragon Jade and the Saint Dragon Mirror behind! That bastard Eight-Headed managed to learn from him for a while and stole a wisp of Dragon Qi, taking away the Saint Dragon Sword. He successfully unlocked the Divine Dragon Sword’s seal and has been suppressing me ever since.”

Saying this, the man’s eyes revealed an indescribable hatred: ”This time, as long as I can obtain the unsealed Saint Dragon Jade and Saint Dragon Mirror, I can contend against Eight-Headed and will no longer be suppressed by him!”

As he finished speaking, the hatred in the man’s eyes transformed into an ambition.

”Congratulations, sir, on soon succeeding in ruling the world!” Emperor Ci Yi timely flattered.

”Ci Yi, you are too naive! Ruling the world? In this world, no one can rule entirely; this is the Origin Star, and all forces won’t allow anyone to rule it alone!”

The man once again looked at Emperor Ci Yi with disdain: ”The power of the Temple of Light and the Dark Temple is so vast. They once attacked Dragon Valley, and although they were beaten to a hasty retreat, they were not destroyed, proving their strength.”

”But even so, none of them dared to claim to rule the Origin Star, only establishing opposing Holy Courts and Dark Churches! Ruling the Origin Star? That’s simply a fool’s dream!”

As he said this, the man suddenly furrowed his brows, then waved his hand: ”Enough! After so many years of slumber, I’ve become so talkative, wasting so many words with you.”

The man then fixed his gaze on Emperor Ci Yi: ”Remember this, hand the Saint Dragon Mirror to that Jiang Chen, keep a close watch on him, and once he unlocks the Saint Dragon Mirror’s seal, snatch the Saint Dragon Mirror and the Saint Dragon Jade immediately. He brought a Saint Realm Peak expert, and I’ll keep an eye on him. If you can’t even handle two little Venerable Realm fellows, then just kill yourself!”

”Yes! Ci Yi will not disappoint you, sir!” Emperor Ci Yi bowed respectfully.

...

In a guest room of the Imperial Palace.

Jiang Chen and Ying Zi were brought here, and once they entered, Mu Cun stood guard at the door.

”Young Master, I feel something’s a bit off!” Once they sat down by the tea table, Ying Zi glanced at the door and conveyed her thoughts.

Jiang Chen smiled faintly: ”There’s nothing wrong. Emperor Ci Yi knows who I am, so it’s normal for him to meet me personally, considering my international status.”

”No, I meant his confidence!” Ying Zi conveyed her thoughts again.

Jiang Chen’s eyes changed slightly, and he became solemn: ”At first, I was puzzled as well, but later I found the answer. After we left, a mysterious aura erupted in his room, an aura similar to the one locking the Two-Winged Angel in my Sea of Consciousness. Behind Emperor Ci Yi, there must be someone from the Ancient Martial Era!”

”What!?”

Ying Zi couldn’t help but exclaim out loud, then quickly reacted, raising her hand to cover her mouth and glancing at the door.

”It’s nothing, just feel that Mr. Emperor doesn’t seem very interested in our cooperation!” Jiang Chen timely said.

Ying Zi glanced apologetically at Jiang Chen, who smiled faintly, returning a ”it’s okay” look.

Bang, bang, bang!

After a while, there was a knock on the door.

”Please come in!” Jiang Chen called out.

Click!

The door opened, and Emperor Ci Yi walked in, holding a flat box made of white jade, about a foot square, in his hands.

Jiang Chen’s eyes lit up, he glanced at the white jade box and then looked up at Emperor Ci Yi.

Emperor Ci Yi smiled slightly, reached out, and placed the box on the tea table, saying meaningfully: ”Mr. Jiang, this is a piece from my collection, please appraise it.”

”Alright!”

Jiang Chen chuckled lightly, nodded, and reached out to open the white jade box.

”Eight Yata Mirror!?”

The moment the box was opened, Ying Zi gasped in surprise.

As a member of the family guarding the three divine artifacts, Ying Zi had been familiar with the images of the divine artifacts since childhood.

Lying in the white jade box was a palm-sized round copper mirror, with a wavy crack dividing the copper mirror seemingly into two halves.

”Mr. Emperor, your piece seems to have some age!” Jiang Chen said with a light laugh, reaching for the copper mirror.

Hmm?

Suddenly, a puzzled look flashed in Jiang Chen’s eyes, as the crack in the middle of the copper mirror indeed split it into two halves.

Jiang Chen picked up one side of the copper mirror, only lifting half of it.

”This...” Jiang Chen was momentarily stunned, his brows slightly furrowed as he looked up at Emperor Ci Yi.

Emperor Ci Yi said nothing, smiling with deep meaning as he looked at Jiang Chen.

Thinking quickly, Jiang Chen picked up the other half of the copper mirror and aligned the two halves together.

The wavy crack in the middle of the copper mirror fit perfectly with no gap, almost as if it were one piece.

Yet a thought suddenly surged in Jiang Chen’s mind: this isn’t how the Eight Yata Mirror is supposed to be pieced together!

Buzzing!

Jiang Chen cautiously infused a thread of soul power into the Eight Yata Mirror.

Buzz!

The Eight Yata Mirror trembled suddenly, emitting a golden light.

Jiang Chen quickly withdrew his soul power, and the Eight Yata Mirror returned to its original state.

”Mr. Jiang, have you activated the Eight Yata Mirror?” Emperor Ci Yi asked hastily.

”Activated?”

Jiang Chen slightly paused, looking skeptically at Emperor Ci Yi.

Emperor Ci Yi quickly realized he had misspoken and hastily said: ”No, I meant, have you begun mastering it?”

”Oh, no, I was just testing if the method given by the Pingchang Family was correct, haven’t officially started yet!”

Jiang Chen lightly shook his head but started to wonder within.

Activated? What activation? Does the Eight Yata Mirror need activation?

Eyes gleaming with mockery, Emperor Ci Yi thought to himself, pretending with me? You’ll pay once you activate the Eight Yata Mirror’s seal!

”Then please begin, Mr. Jiang!”

Emperor Ci Yi gestured with his hand, eyes flashing with a hint of eagerness.

”Hehe, the esteemed Emperor is in such a hurry.”

Jiang Chen laughed lightly, eyes narrowing as he gave Emperor Ci Yi a deep look.

His curiosity deepened.
