Medic Martial Dragon King

Chapter 2516: Chapter 2519: Bloodline?

”Brother Jiang, why did you choose this? What is it?”

In the first auction room, Pang Guang looked at Jiang Chen with confusion.

The auction had just ended, and the sensation it caused left Pang Guang exhilarated.

The appearance of top-level combat skills from Lei Yang Village and the Spirit Sword Sect made this auction full of talking points, and with Si Huang’er’s presence and the auction of a pseudo-dao treasure, the prestige of this auction reached its peak in the inner circle.

However, Pang Guang did not let this get to his head. After the auction, he, along with two elder Saints from the Canghai Trade Alliance and several Semi-Saint experts, forcefully expelled some forces with ulterior motives from the auction house.

Of course, he dared not expel anyone from room number two.

At the auction of the final item, Pang Guang received a sound transmission that the pseudo-dao treasure was exchanged for something even the bidder himself didn’t know, given by an Integration Realm Cultivator as per their own will.

That mysterious item was now in Jiang Chen’s hand.

It was an iron piece exuding an ancient aura, about the size of a palm, its surface dark and lacking any gloss. Although it seemed ancient, a scan with Divine Sense revealed no energy fluctuations at all, like ordinary iron.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Chen showed a peculiar expression on his face and gently shook his head, ”I don’t know either, I just felt something familiar from it.”

He truly didn’t know. During the auction, that Integration Realm expert took out the iron piece hoping to make a gamble.

When the iron piece appeared, the Dragon Qi within Jiang Chen and the blood-colored liquid in his Sea of Consciousness both started to stir, prompting Jiang Chen to send a sound transmission to Pang Guang to have the pseudo-dao treasure exchanged for it.

The Dragon Qi and blood-colored liquid within Jiang Chen were left by Lord Ancestral Dragon and another Divine Dragon not weaker than him. Now both were stirred by this iron piece, which was enough to capture Jiang Chen’s attention.

”Don’t know?”

Pang Guang was momentarily surprised, as were the surrounding people, not knowing that you would exchange a pseudo-dao treasure for something seemingly inert?

”I acted rashly!”

Pang Guang assumed Jiang Chen was reluctant to speak and slightly apologetically cupped his fists.

”Brother Pang, you’ve misunderstood; I truly don’t know. It’s just that it stirred the power within me, which is why I had you exchange it with the pseudo-dao treasure.”

Jiang Chen explained softly, not wanting Pang Guang to harbor any grudges over this.

”Stirred the power within you?”

Pang Guang was taken aback again, then lightly furrowed his brow.

Su Qingluan’s eyes shifted slightly, speaking softly, ”For something to stir the power within you, there are only two possibilities: one is related to your bloodline, and the second is related to your main cultivation technique. Perhaps you should consider these two aspects.”

”Bloodline?”

Jiang Chen was briefly stunned but then his eyes lit up.

His primary cultivation technique is The Tome of Dao, left by a mysterious elder who once appeared in his Sea of Consciousness. The iron piece did not cause any fluctuations in the cultivation technique, indicating it’s not due to the technique, so then...

Is it something from the Dragon Clan!?

Having this thought, Jiang Chen raised an eyebrow, staring intently at the iron piece in his hand, a look of excitement in his eyes.

Lord Ancestral Dragon once said that if one day he arrived in this realm, he could go to Dragon Island to find him. The Dragon Qi left by Jiang Chen’s two ancestors and Lord Canglan was taken away by him, possibly to be revived.

Upon arriving in the Void Nether Realm, Jiang Chen had inquired about the location of Dragon Island. But according to Hu Yiqiu, the true Dragon Island had already retreated into the space, making it difficult for those in the Void Nether Realm to find it. Only some truly transcendent figures can know Dragon Island’s location.

Therefore, Jiang Chen can only temporarily abandon the idea of searching for Dragon Island. Now, suddenly obtaining this thing likely related to the Dragon Clan ignites his hope once more.

Everyone saw Jiang Chen’s reaction and immediately realized he had figured something out, but no one asked further. Regardless of bloodline or cultivation technique, these are Jiang Chen’s own secrets, and it’s not appropriate to inquire about them.

”Brother Jiang, here are the Xuan Yuan Spiritual Ginseng, Spirit Stones, and Necro Sphere obtained from the auction.”

Pang Guang spoke, changing the subject, and handed over a Space Ring to Jiang Chen.

Jiang Chen reached out to take it, not even looking at it, and stored both the iron piece and the Space Ring together.

”Brother Jiang, someone wishes to meet you.”

Seeing Jiang Chen put away the items, Pang Guang hesitated a bit, spoke softly, and wore a slightly bitter smile.

Jiang Chen was slightly surprised, looking at Pang Guang in bewilderment. Yan Hu and the others frowned.

In this auction, Jiang Chen essentially offended Lei Yang Village and the Spirit Sword Sect thoroughly. Moreover, everyone saw Qi Shan seeking Gui Ying. Now Pang Guang says someone wants to meet Jiang Chen, inevitably leading to misunderstandings.

”Everyone, rest assured, they are not from Lei Yang Village or the Spirit Sword Sect. They do wish to see Brother Jiang, but I managed to fend them off. Only this person, I cannot turn away!”

Pang Guang quickly explained, just as Jiang Chen did not want him to harbor any misunderstanding or grudge, he also did not want Jiang Chen and the others to feel any resentment.

”It’s Si Huang’er, isn’t it?”

Upon hearing this, Jiang Chen’s heart stirred, coming to a possibility.

Pang Guang nodded with a bitter smile, ”If it weren’t her, even if it were a figure from the other four top forces, I would still turn them away for Brother Jiang.”

Yan Hu and the others were momentarily stunned upon hearing this, then turned to look at Jiang Chen.

Si Huang’er’s actions were peculiarly strange. Her claiming that the Supreme Spirit Demon Slaying Sword was suitable for her cultivation was something even a fool wouldn’t believe, even though she said it was merely a transitional combat skill.

But who is Si Huang’er? She is the daughter of the Canglan Great Emperor, who surely wouldn’t lack cultivation techniques and combat skills. She certainly wouldn’t resort to auctioning combat skills as a transition.

”I should indeed go meet her, and properly thank her for this auction.”

Jiang Chen understood why Si Huang’er did so, gently nodding and stepping towards the door.

The surrounding people exchanged a glance. Only Yan Hu followed Jiang Chen without hesitation, while the others, even Su Qingluan and Mu Ling’er, remained still. Pang Guang’s words were clear; Si Huang’er wished to meet Jiang Chen, not them, and they dared not follow without permission.

Pang Guang hesitated, clenched his teeth, and turned to follow Jiang Chen out of the room.

If the relationship between Si Huang’er and Jiang Chen was friendly, that would be fine. However, the matter between Hu Yiqiu and the princess has always had multiple accounts, and Pang Guang couldn’t determine if Si Huang’er seeking Jiang Chen was favorable or unfavorable.

After some hesitation, Pang Guang decided to follow and see for himself.
