Chapter 1217 Dragon's Authority

1217 Dragon’s Authority

"Dragon's Authority?" Yuan mumbled, his eyes flickering with excitement.

"Indeed. According to my father's knowledge, Dragon's Gaze can be used by any dragon with a royal bloodline— or what humans call an Imperial-grade bloodline. However, dragons with a Divine-grade bloodline will have access to Dragon's Authority, which, as its name suggests, gives them authority over dragons." Xi Shengmo said.

Yuan then said, "That sounds like those with Dragon's Authority can command other dragons…"

"Exactly. As long as their target has an inferior bloodline or a weaker soul strength, they can essentially command them to do anything."

Xi Meili and Xi Murong swallowed nervously after hearing this. They cannot imagine being affected by Dragon's Authority and forced to do things unwillingly. Of course, they experienced it first-hand very recently, but it wasn't directed at them, so they didn't count it.

"Dragon's Authority, huh? How interesting…" Xi Mingze, on the other hand, seemed intrigued by its concept and effects.

She turned to look at Yuan with a smile, "Would you like to practice on me?"

"What are you saying?" Xi Shengmo looked at her with a dumbfounded expression.

"I don't think he's mastered it yet, so I want to help him to do so. I doubt anyone here besides you and I will be able to endure it without being injured, so unless you want to be the dummy…"

"..."

After pondering for a moment, Xi Shengmo sighed, "Alright, just don't take things too far."

He turned to look at Yuan and continued, "This is the least we can do to thank you."

"Thank you." Yuan nodded.

"We'll start training in a few days once things settle down." Xi Mingze said, and she continued, "You should get some rest for now."

Yuan retired to his room shortly after.

Meanwhile, Xi Mingze and Xi Shengmo continued to deal with the incident.

As for Xi Meili, she went to get her injuries checked before getting some rest.

However, Yuan did not go to sleep. He lay on the bed and closed his eyes, but his consciousness was wide awake as he went through the Dragon G.o.ddess' memories.

Meanwhile, Xi Shengmo went to the Azure Dragon City to take control of their city. He captured everybody from the Azure Dragon Family and those with a connection, interrogating all of them intensively over the next several days.

Xi Shengmo was shocked to learn that the Azure Dragon Family had been planning and preparing their invasion for over 1,000,000 years now.

He also learned that the majority of the Azure Dragon Family had been kept out of the loop, so these people were just as surprised as everyone else when they learned what had happened.

Meanwhile, Xi Mingze traveled to the Emerald Dragon City to investigate the Emerald Dragon Family. She was surprised to learn that pretty much n.o.body in the city even had an idea about the incident, only learning about it after her arrival.

As for the Azure Dragon City, they were alerted by the commotion caused by Yuan, so they believed that they were the ones being invaded.

During his investigation, Xi Shengmo found Liang Xuan, who had been hiding like a rat inside the city. Xi Shengmo immediately sent Liang Xuan back to the Ancient Dragon City for questioning, as he was essentially as rooted in the incident as Patriarch Liang.

When Xi Meili learned of this discovery, she personally volunteered to do the investigation. Xi Shengmo objected at first, but he eventually gave in and allowed Xi Meili to handle Liang Xuan's investigation.

Once Liang Xuan was in her hands, Xi Meili said to the guards, "Uncuff him and treat his injuries."

"What?" The guards were baffled by her commands.

"Just do it."

"A-As you command…"

Once Liang Xuan fully recovered from his injuries, Xi Meili dragged him to the training area within the Dragon Palace.

"W-What are you planning on doing to me, Xi Meili?!" Liang Xuan growled at her.

"Nothing much. We're just going to spar a little." Xi Meili casually responded.

"Spar…?" Liang Xuan had a confused look on his face.

"If you can defeat me, I will let you go. However, if I win, you will tell me everything you know. How does that sound?"

"Are you serious?"

"Of course."

"Princess! You cannot decide such a thing without His Majesty's approval first!" The guards began panicking.

"Shut up! My father already gave me permission to do whatever I want to him!" Xi Meili snapped at them.

She then turned to Liang Xuan and continued, "There will be no limitations and no rules. Do you have anything to say before we begin?"

"What if I kill you?" Liang Xuan asked.

"Do you really think that is possible?" Xi Meili sneered.

Xi Meili and Liang Xuan had similar cultivation, both being at the peak of Spirit Emperor. However, Xi Meili has superior techniques and a superior bloodline.

Although the chances of Liang Xuan defeating Xi Meili were close to zero, it was not completely impossible.

"Alright… Don't you dare go back on your words…"Liang Xuan said with a slight smile on his face.

Their sparring began shortly after.

And over the next several hours, the guards there would bare witness to a brutal beating that could only be described as unbearable.

Xi Meili was beating Liang Xuan so badly that it could no longer be called a spar, but a one-sided torture.

Liang Xuan's blood stained the stage, pieces of his flesh scattered about, and all of his teeth were laying around in a shattered state, resembling dust more than anything.

"H-H-Ha…ve… me…rcy…" Liang Xuan's face was so swollen and bloodied that he could barely utter these words.

"What did you just say? I can't hear you." Xi Meili calmly said before driving her fist directly into Liang Xuan's guts, forcing him to puke out a mouthful of fresh blood.

When Liang Xuan fell to his knees for the umpteenth time, Xi Meili gracefully kicked him in the face, sending him flying to the other side of the arena and drawing another b.l.o.o.d.y line on the platform.

She then walked over to him and forcefully fed him some medicine.

After making sure he swallowed the medicine, Xi Meili stood there with her bloodied arms crossed in front of her chest, patiently waiting for Liang Xuan to stand back up.

"Dear lord…" The guards shuddered in fear, as they have never seen this brutal side of Xi Meili before.
