Chapter 150 Dragon Emperor: Plundering and Absorbing the Bloodlines

"Huang Chen and Ao Ming'er greet the Dragon Emperor," they both said, kneeling with profound respect.

Now it was Draco's turn to be shocked. He looked at the two dragons kneeling before him, utterly baffled.

"Wait, what do you mean?" Draco asked, his voice filled with confusion as he stared at them.

"You are the Dragon Emperor—the leader and progenitor of the Dragon Clan," Huang Chen said, his tone reverent.

"Is it because of my bloodline?" Draco asked, starting to piece together the situation.

"Yes," Ao Ming'er confirmed. "The Dragon Clan has awaited the return of the Dragon Emperor. We never imagined we'd have the honor of seeing you, even just once more."

Their words left Draco more confused and shocked than ever.

"Wait, I think there is a misunderstanding here. I would say this bloodline wasn't originally mine," Draco chuckled.

Huang Chen and Ao Ming'er exchanged glances before turning back to Draco. "That doesn't change the fact that you are the Dragon Emperor," Huang Chen said without hesitation.

"No one can take the Dragon Emperor Bloodline or use it for their own benefit. There is only one Dragon Emperor, and if it was successfully transferred, then it means it was by fate and divine order."

Draco felt helpless at their words. From what they were saying, it seemed they had been expecting him.

"We can finally leave in peace. We will transfer our bloodline to you," they said, though Draco was confused.

He raised an eyebrow. He had acquired this bloodline from Lyraea, and her bloodline didn't have the ability to absorb other dragon bloodlines. It wasn't until his plunder ability influenced it that such a thing became possible.

"How do we go about that?" Draco asked.

Both Huang Chen and Ao Ming'er were baffled and shocked. "Isn't that the ability of your Dragon Emperor Bloodline?"

Draco furrowed his brows, clearly confused. "How exactly does the Emperor Bloodline do this?"

"We might disappoint you, as we have no idea," Huang Chen admitted. "It has been eras since the Dragon Emperor Bloodline last appeared. However, it was divined that the Dragon Emperor Bloodline would return."

Draco grew increasingly perplexed, and the couple noticed.

"It was foretold that the Dragon Emperor Bloodline would emerge in this world and possess the ability to absorb other dragon bloodlines for its own use. During our youth, we ventured into this world hoping to confirm this prophecy. We met each other here and decided to stay until the end of our lives."

"I know you might be confused about why we stayed here, but it was for personal reasons," the couple said, smiling at one another with eyes full of love.

Draco sighed. He felt as though everything was growing more complicated. Why him? Why not Lyraea? Her bloodline lacked the ability to absorb other dragon bloodlines.

After pondering for a while, he stopped when he realized he was at a dead end. "Then let's begin."

He had considered plundering their bloodlines directly, but since they were offering willingly, it worked out for him.

"Don't think like that, Master," Xylara's voice rang out in his mind. "If you plunder their bloodlines, the karma tied to the Dragon Clan will fall upon you. You'll be responsible for protecting the Dragon Clan. Also, your bloodlines have already mutated due to your plundering ability."

Xylara's words left Draco stunned. He hadn't anticipated such repercussions. As for his bloodlines, he was amazed. Did this mean his bloodlines had become the strongest, surpassing all known ones?

His expression hardened with determination. What Dragon Karma? He was already carrying the fate of the world. Adding the Dragon Clan's karma wouldn't change much.

He nodded at the couple, who waved their hands. All the dragon bones in the space, except for theirs, disintegrated into a drop of liquid. The liquid radiated astonishing energy, leaving Draco amazed.

"I hope you can give this to our descendants. We can sense their bond outside," Huang Chen said. Draco nodded, making a promise.

The couple looked relieved. They waved their hands, and their own skeletons began to melt and compress into two drops of blood—one fiery red, the other earthy brown.

"It will be painful, and your flesh might break apart. We have sealed part of the bloodline's energy and inheritance. As you grow stronger, the seals will gradually unlock," the couple said before sending the drops of blood into Draco's dragon body.

As the bloodline entered Draco's body, a resounding draconic roar echoed. The enormous images of a fire dragon and an earth dragon appeared, roaring toward the heavens.

"As expected of the Emperor Bloodline," the couple said in awe. Despite sealing more than three-quarters of the bloodline's power, it was still overwhelming for anyone to contain.

But there was Draco, calmly absorbing the bloodline with ease.

If they had known the kind of pain and trials Draco endured during his tribulations, they wouldn't have been so surprised.

ROAR!

The image of a silvery white dragon appeared, each of its scales a star itself, its eyes like a starry sky. The silver-white dragon moved, plundering the images of the fire dragon and earth dragon as it absorbed them.

It let out a resounding roar that pierced through the Nine Heavens, its eyes intimidating every dragon.

CHIRP!

ROAR!

ROAR!

A three-colored phoenix appeared, declaring its sovereignty as the Emperor of All Phoenix. A black-red demon with a malevolent aura also declared its dominance. A white tiger with the word "King" etched on its head roared, claiming its sovereignty.

Huang Chen and Ao Ming'er were shocked by this, staring at Draco in bewilderment. "It seems we underestimated him," Huang Chen muttered.

"He possesses four peak-defying bloodlines within him, each capable of making the entire universe pursue him," Ao Ming'er added, chuckling nervously.

As they contemplated this, they suddenly felt the bloodlines fall silent, each maintaining a quiet aura, like a tamed cat.

They glanced at the stillness and shivered when they saw the image of a human. Its appearance, features, and height were completely concealed, yet they instinctively knew it was a human.

The longer they looked, the more oppressive it became. For a fleeting moment, the image's gaze fell upon them, but that single second felt like an eternity.

Their bodies involuntarily dropped to the ground in submission, overwhelmed by fear.

It was as if they had been erased from time and space, becoming non-existent. The sensation made them tremble. When the image disappeared, only the bloodline images remained.

They turned to the silent bloodlines, realizing that what they had witnessed was real. The human image had appeared for just a moment, but they felt as though they had been in its presence for aeons.

Huang Chen and Ao Ming'er looked at Draco in horror, wondering about his true identity. Having such peak bloodlines coexisting in one body was an extraordinary feat. Even though they understood how it was possible, they were still deeply shaken.

The bloodline images moved, returning to Draco's body.

As the couple's forms began to turn transparent, dispersing bit by bit, they shared a final moment of peace.

"At least our descendants follow him. I hope he brings them purpose," they murmured.

With those words, they disappeared completely, embracing and kissing each other with love as they faded away.
