Doupo: Marry a Young Doctor and Be Rewarded with Douhuang Cultivation

237: Zi Yan’s biological father, Zhu Kun!Hun Tiandi was about to make his move when he saw the magma surface surging once more.

A slender figure, stepping on a Dragon-shaped halo, slowly ascended.

Her purple dress trailed, and her dark hair cascaded like a waterfall.

It was Zi Yan, the inheritor of the Void Ancient Dragon Clan!

Pure Dragon Phoenix Qi encircled her body.

With every step she took, golden Dragon patterns flashed beneath her feet, creating a strong resonance with the Ancient Dragon Bloodline churning in the magma below.

Even the violent magma waves calmed down slightly.

”Senior, please show mercy!”

Zi Yan’s clear voice pierced the chaos of the battlefield, carrying the innate majesty of the Void Ancient Dragon Clan.

Like the gentle strike of a jade chime, it instantly spread throughout the entire area.

The Bloodline pressure contained within that voice made the Elders of the Ancient Dragon Clan tremble, and even the massive purple-gold body in the magma slightly halted its movements.

When the mysterious Dragon Emperor saw Zi Yan, his enormous head paused slightly, his giant eyes suddenly constricted, and the fierce, violent Qi surrounding him unconsciously subsided somewhat.

His gaze toward Zi Yan contained a mix of scrutiny and disbelief.

He could clearly sense that the Bloodline flowing within the young woman before him was of the same origin as his own, perhaps even purer, and subtly contained a trace of the supreme Qi of the Ancient Dragon Phoenix.

Receiving what seemed like silent approval from the Dragon Emperor, Zi Yan’s figure flashed, appearing instantly before the Dragon Emperor.

The Dragon Emperor had now retracted his true form, transforming into a middle-aged man dressed in purple-gold robes.

His face was resolute, and his golden pupils flowed with majesty and vicissitude.

This was Zhu Kun, the Old Dragon Emperor of the Void Ancient Dragon Clan, who had been missing for thousands of years.

Zhu Kun’s gaze carefully swept over Zi Yan’s beautiful face.

The liveliness and stubbornness in her eyes caused his thousand-year-sealed memories to surge forth.

A complex smile suddenly appeared on his resolute face—it was relief, guilt, and nostalgia all mixed together.

He sighed softly: ”You look so much like your mother... especially those eyes, they are almost identical.”

”You’ve seen my mother?”

Upon hearing this, Zi Yan’s expression instantly changed.

She stared at the man before her in disbelief, her heart pounding uncontrollably.

When her gaze met the man’s signature pair of golden pupils, a strange, Bloodline-derived stirring suddenly arose deep within her heart.

It was an indescribable feeling of closeness and reliance, causing her delicate body to tremble slightly.

She bit her red lip with her silver teeth, as if having made a decision, and suddenly stretched out her jade hand, firmly grasping the man’s palm.

The moment their hands touched, brilliant golden light simultaneously surged out from both their bodies.

Within Zhu Kun was majestic and tyrannical Ancient Dragon Emperor Qi, while within Zi Yan was pure and agile Dragon Phoenix power.

These two powers, originating from the same source but having evolved differently, underwent perfect Fusion where their palms met, forming a solid golden pillar of light.

An extremely terrifying pressure suddenly spread out, centered on the two of them.

”Thud!”

Behind Zi Yan, numerous Elders of the Ancient Dragon Clan immediately knelt down on the spot.

Under this pressure originating from the root of their Bloodline, they had no room for resistance whatsoever; they could only submit entirely.

”You...” Zi Yan stared blankly at the golden light converging in their palms, her eyes flickering violently.

A moment later, she withdrew her jade hand as if shocked, her beautiful eyes fixed on the gentle-faced man before her.

Her tone suddenly turned cold: ”I am an orphan, I have no father or mother!”

Xiao Ze stood in mid-air, taking in this entire scene.

From Zhu Kun, he clearly sensed the pure Bloodline Power that shared the same origin as Zi Yan’s.

He naturally understood that this was the Old Dragon Emperor of the Void Ancient Dragon Clan who had been missing for thousands of years, and also Zi Yan’s biological father.

If it were not for his great battle with Hun Tiandi, which summoned the Ancient Emperor Cave, he might have remained Sealed for who knows how long.

Seeing Zi Yan’s cold expression, Zhu Kun appeared somewhat helpless.

He rubbed his hands and stared blankly, completely unsure how to speak.

This Peak powerhouse, who once shook the continent, displayed a rare awkwardness when facing his daughter’s coldness.

”My fault, it’s all my fault!” Seeing tears shimmering in Zi Yan’s eyes, Zhu Kun immediately panicked.

He hurriedly tried to step forward, his voice filled with urgency and guilt.

”It was I who greedily sought the Opportunity of the Ancient Emperor Cave back then, and I was trapped in a different dimension for thousands of years by Tuoshe Ancient Emperor!

Child, don’t cry.

It is my fault as your father.

From now on, I will comply with whatever you ask me to do.

Even if it means climbing mountains of knives or plunging into seas of fire, I will not refuse!”

This flustered behavior astonished the allied forces, while the Hun Clan side looked increasingly grim.

Fire Elder of the Ancient Dragon Clan finally woke up from his shock, trembling with excitement, tears streaming down his face: ”Old Dragon Emperor Your Majesty, is it truly you?

Your subordinate, Fire Elder, greets Your Majesty!”

”Heh, I thought you brat had completely forgotten this Emperor.” Zhu Kun smiled upon hearing this, his tone carrying a mix of emotion and relief.

Fire Elder repeatedly shook his head, respectfully giving a brief account of how the Ancient Dragon Clan had been fragmented and suppressed by various forces after the disappearance of the Dragon Emperor.

Upon hearing this, the fury in Zhu Kun’s eyes instantly surged, and the purple-gold light around him nearly spiraled out of control.

However, when he heard that Zi Yan was only able to return safely to the clan and stabilize the situation thanks to the help of Xiao Ze, cold sweat broke out on his forehead.

When he turned to look at Xiao Ze, his expression was incomparably amiable.

”Young Friend Xiao Ze, I was quite offensive earlier; please forgive me.”

Xiao Ze shook his head helplessly.

Just as he was about to speak, Zhu Kun interrupted him: ”Calling me Senior is too distant.

Since you and Zi Yan are like siblings, just call me Uncle.”

He naturally heard that Zi Yan and Xiao Ze had an extraordinary relationship.

If he had truly attacked earlier, it would likely have been even harder to gain his daughter’s forgiveness.

”Uncle Zhu Kun.” Xiao Ze could only cup his hands and reply, sighing inwardly at how quickly the Old Dragon Emperor had changed his tune.

Zi Yan looked at her father’s simple and flustered appearance, and the ice in her heart gradually melted.

She sniffled, pointed at Hun Tiandi in the distance, and asked with a slight nasal tone: ”Then, can you kill him?”

”Yes!” Zhu Kun agreed without hesitation, his eyes instantly surging with ferocity.

Purple-gold Dragon Qi surged around him, locking tightly onto Hun Tiandi.

”Dare to harm someone my daughter cares about and covet the Ancient Emperor Cave?

Today, I shall take your dog life!”

The allied forces were instantly invigorated by this sight.

Gu Yuan breathed a sigh of relief, stepped forward, cupped his fists, and smiled: ”So it is the Old Dragon Emperor Your Majesty of the Void Ancient Dragon Clan.

Gu Yuan was shortsighted and failed to recognize you sooner.”

”Just call me Zhu Kun.

In this chaotic world, strength reigns supreme, so there’s no need for excessive courtesy.”

Zhu Kun waved his hand, showing no pretense.

After a brief exchange, the two instantly reached a consensus.

Zhu Kun’s strength was the same as Gu Yuan’s, both being Late Stage Nine-Star Dou Sheng.

Working together, while they couldn’t suppress Hun Tiandi, they could certainly hold him back somewhat.

Just then, seeing the situation suddenly reverse, Hun Tiandi’s face was so gloomy it looked like it could drip water.

He let out a cold snort, and the Tuoshe Ancient Emperor Jade in his hand suddenly shot out a brilliant pillar of light, ignoring the surrounding chaos and heading straight for the ancient stone gate.

After the previous charging, he had pushed the power of the ancient jade to its limit.

”Boom!” As the pillar of light struck, the ancient stone gate, which had been tightly shut for ten thousand years, slowly began to wriggle.

Fine cracks silently appeared and continuously spread and widened.

”Creak creak—” A moment later, amidst a grating sound, the ancient stone gate slowly slid open to both sides, and a vast fluctuation originating from ancient times suddenly swept out from behind the gate.

”Hiss!” The strength of this fluctuation far exceeded everyone’s expectations.

Both the allied forces and the Hun Clan Army were struck heavily; their formations were instantly thrown into disarray, and some weaker individuals were directly pushed back tens of thousands of feet, spitting blood as they flew away.

”Be careful!” Xiao Ze stabilized his body and reminded the people beside him in a deep voice.

His gaze, however, remained fixed on Hun Tiandi.

Although the two had not yet exchanged blows, their Half-step Dou Di Qi fiercely collided in the air, neither able to suppress the other.
