“What is that?”
Several creatures, each hundreds of meters long, emerged from the clouds, with antler-like horns, rabbit-like eyes, eagle-like claws, tiger-like paws, and cow-like ears.
They were dragons!
Even the Tianqiong Clan Leader, mid-attack, turned to look skyward.
“Those are… dragons?”
The Clan Leader’s pupils contracted sharply, his face instantly filled with shock.
“Dragons, dragons!”
“Those dragons seem to be coming toward us!”
“What’s going on!”
In an instant, everyone on the battlefield and below looked up, exclaiming in astonishment.
To put it bluntly, almost no one present had ever seen a real dragon.
To them, such creatures existed in legends and ancient texts!
How could they not be shocked to see dragons appear so suddenly?
Beyond shock, they were puzzled—why would dragons show up here?
The Tianqiong Clan Leader, stunned, said, “Master, how… how could dragons appear at our Tianqiong Clan? And in a group? We’ve never had dealings with the Dragon Clan. Could… could that guy have called them?”
“Him? Impossible! With the Dragon Clan’s pride, even the Tianqian Emperor or Huoyun Emperor couldn’t forge ties with them. A mere Nine Revolutions Tribulation Realm cultivator like him, connect with the Dragon Clan?” The goatee Old Clan Leader’s tone was resolute.
Though puzzled by the dragons’ sudden appearance, the Old Clan Leader was certain they couldn’t be here for Lin Yun!
“That makes sense,” the Clan Leader nodded in agreement.
On a distant hill.
Duan Heng, the immortal Lin Yun had hired, stood watching.
After abandoning the task, he hadn’t left entirely but stayed to observe from afar.
“Why are dragons here? And in a group!” Duan Heng was utterly shocked.
He knew well that the Dragon Clan’s territory was far in the Endless Sea. Under normal circumstances, multiple dragons would never appear in human lands!
As the dragons dove from the clouds, everyone saw clearly—there were four of them.
“It’s… Little Green Dragon…”
Lin Yun gazed skyward, his eyes flickering with shock.
He recognised the leader at a glance—it was Little Green Dragon.
Lin Yun hadn’t expected Little Green Dragon to come in person. His message had only asked for help in applying pressure.
“Lord Mansion Master, what’s happening? Could these dragons be called by the Tianqiong Clan?” the Zhu Family Patriarch asked, his voice tinged with fear and tension.
“If the Tianqiong Clan summoned them, we’re in even bigger trouble,” the Jiuxuan Sect Master said, his eyes filled with deep apprehension.
The members of Dongyuan Prefecture’s sects and families also looked up, their gazes brimming with fear and worry.
Joking aside, the sudden appearance of four dragons naturally sparked deep concern and dread!
After all, they were dragons!
Their mystique and power were legendary!
Only Huo Zhen, Liang Yuan, Yang Wan, and Wei Qi seemed thoughtful, a nearly unbelievable idea forming in their minds.
They suddenly recalled that Lin Yun had sent a letter to the Dragon Clan.
“Don’t worry, everyone. They’re our reinforcements!” Lin Yun said, a smile spreading across his face.
“What? Rein… reinforcements?”
Hearing Lin Yun’s words, the crowd behind him froze, stunned beyond belief.
Even Huo Zhen and the others were dumbfounded—it was true!
Under the gaze of everyone present, the four dragons reached the battlefield above the Tianqiong Clan.
The four transformed into human forms and approached Lin Yun directly.
The next moment.
“You punk!”
Under countless shocked gazes, Little Green Dragon and Lin Yun shared a bear hug!
Silence!
In that instant, the battlefield and the countless Tianqiong Clan members below fell into a deathly hush.
Innumerable incredulous eyes fixed on Lin Yun and Little Green Dragon.
That single gesture made it clear, even to the densest among them, that these four dragons had come for Lin Yun!
“This… this… this…”
The Tianqiong Clan Leader and Old Clan Leader’s eyes bulged, their faces contorted with disbelief!
These four dragons were really here for Lin Yun?
In that moment, the two leaders felt the world spinning.
They knew they were in deep trouble now…
…
Huoyun Empire, Imperial Palace.
Inside the Tongshen Hall.
The Huoyun Emperor shot to his feet, staring intently at the projected scene, his eyes wide with profound shock and disbelief!
“Lin Yun… has ties with the Dragon Clan!”
He saw clearly in the projection—Lin Yun embracing the human-formed dragon!
This was something the Huoyun Emperor hadn’t dared dream of!
Even the red-furred cat yowled in shock, “Master, he actually got the Dragon Clan to help! My goodness!”
The Huoyun Emperor slowly sat back down. As an emperor of many years, he could remain composed even in the face of calamity, and the shock on his face quickly faded.
But the astonishment in his heart didn’t diminish one bit!
“This kid has such capability? I never would’ve imagined…” The Huoyun Emperor couldn’t stop sighing, his deep eyes still shimmering with intense emotion.
From this moment, even the Huoyun Emperor had to reassess Lin Yun, to see him in a new light!
“Now Master doesn’t need to worry. The situation should completely turn around,” the red-furred cat said.
When the Tianqiong Clan Leader was about to attack Lin Yun, the Huoyun Emperor had been ready to project an energy construct to shield him.
“Yes, with this kid bringing such powerful allies, I don’t need to worry anymore,” the Huoyun Emperor said with a smile.
If he had acted, the Tianqian Emperor would likely have intervened as well, making things extremely complicated. But with Lin Yun’s life truly at stake, he would’ve had no choice.
Now, with Lin Yun summoning such formidable help, everything was resolved!
…
Above the Tianqiong Clan.
Everyone behind Lin Yun, after their initial shock, erupted in wild joy!
“Haha, who would’ve thought Lord Mansion Master could call the Dragon Clan for support? That’s incredible!”
Lin Yun’s ability to hire an immortal had already stunned them.
Now, summoning actual dragons?
Huo Zhen, Liang Yuan, Yang Wan, and Wei Qi had known Lin Yun sent a letter to the Dragon Clan.
But they hadn’t expected the Dragon Clan to send help in person.
