Chapter 278: Chapter 278 The Soaring Dragon Conference Begins

Although it was somewhat painful, Lin Chen felt it was worth it to have a life-saving trump card.

Not long after, a ringing sound emanated from within the Sect, signaling the assembly to head to the Great Flame Dynasty’s Royal Family.

Lin Chen left his abode and went to meet up with Zhao Yijing, Xu Lianyu, and others.

Mu Qingxuan also wanted to follow Lin Chen to the Royal Family, but was refused by him.

This trip to the Royal Family could bring unknown dangers, and Lin Chen felt that it wasn’t safe for Mu Qingxuan to accompany him.

Though Lin Chen was somewhat concerned about leaving the Jade Cauldron Sect, with the protective restrictions on Jade Bird Peak, there was at least some safety.

Moreover, Lin Chen’s dwelling was safeguarded by a barrier he had set up himself, so if anyone from the Jade Cauldron Sect harbored ill intent towards Mu Qingxuan, it wouldn’t be so simple for them.

Soon, representatives from each peak gathered. This time, each peak sent a considerable number of people to the Royal Family. Of course, many were alternates, because the Great Flame Dynasty’s Royal Family had stipulated that among the Seven Great Sects within their influence, each Sect could only send fifty participants to the Conference.

The smaller Sects and families, on the other hand, were only allotted ten spots each.

Nonetheless, the total number of people from all Sects, factions, and families combined amounted to tens of thousands.

Battling one’s way to a top ranking position from among ten thousand participants was unimaginably difficult.

The Flying Boat used by the Jade Cauldron Sect this time was the largest in the Sect, capable of accommodating all the disciples from the Twelve Peaks.

Once aboard the Flying Boat, Lin Chen and the others gathered together to exchange information about the Conference’s rules, so Lin Chen could be better prepared.

At that moment, Wang Yilin approached, and her Cultivation had broken through once again.

Apart from Wang Yilin, it seemed like disciples from other peaks were either wary of Jade Bird Peak or had other intentions. They kept their distance, creating a sense of isolation for Jade Bird Peak. To this, Lin Chen couldn’t help but let a cold smile grace his lips.

Lin Chen understood their thoughts all too well, but he didn’t need these fools to be warm or welcoming toward Jade Bird Peak.

Meanwhile, from a distance, Xu San’s eyes were cold, filled with hatred as he watched Lin Chen and his companions.

In his heart, Xu San blamed Lin Chen and Zhao Yijing for his punishment of being cast into Scorching Sun Cave. If Lin Chen hadn’t spoiled his plans and reported his conduct, he would never have faced such punishment.

Xu San failed to see that his own actions were to blame.

At this moment, Xu San secretly planned to tarnish Lin Chen’s reputation during the Soaring Dragon Conference and even wished for his death. He was determined to have his revenge.

Regardless of what inheritance Lin Chen had obtained or how powerful he had become, Xu San did not care, for his own strength was at the Third Layer of the Heaven-reaching Realm. Even if Zhao Yijing was now stronger than him, Lin Chen, in his eyes, was still just a Martial Artist of the Melding Earth Realm. All he had to worry about were Lin Chen’s Stone Sculpture Puppets.

As for Zhao Yijing, that despicable woman, he would not let her off either.

His gaze resting on Zhao Yijing sparked immense jealousy in Xu San’s heart, lamenting why he wasn’t the one who had received the heritage, instead of that waste, Lin Chen.

If he had received the inheritance, his Cultivation would have improved by leaps and bounds, and participating in this Soaring Dragon Conference could have brought infinite glory and renown to his Sect.

Apart from Xu San, Baili Wentian, Bai Wenle, Zhang Kaisheng, and others were also on the Flying Boat. These individuals also bore grudges against Lin Chen. It seemed that Xu San had gathered much information in his efforts to oppose Lin Chen, bringing together those who had grievances with him.

They were currently discussing how to deal with Lin Chen.

The Divine Sun City of the Great Flame Dynasty’s Royal Family was some distance away from the Jade Cauldron Sect. The massive Flying Boat, being the fastest among the Sect’s boats, still took four days to reach Divine Sun City.

Divine Sun City was the most prosperous city in the Great Flame Dynasty.

Merely observing the city from the sky, everyone was already shocked by its grandeur.

Upon arriving within Divine Sun City and seeing its streets paved with golden bricks and all the buildings resplendent with gold, everyone felt their own Sects were like nothing more than dirt compared to this place.

The Jade Cauldron Sect was neither the first nor the last to arrive in Divine Sun City. After entering the city and seeing people setting up stalls on the streets to buy and sell goods, it stirred some desire in their hearts.

Some were tempted to hunt for items they could use, while others were interested in selling some of their own possessions.

After a while, individuals dressed in royal attire came to greet Xu Ma’an and others beside their Flying Boat, and then led everyone to the Royal Court.

As one of the Seven Great Sects of the Great Flame Dynasty, the Royal Family naturally prepared accommodations to welcome the Jade Cauldron Sect.

Once the Flying Boat was docked, everyone was settled in, and Lin Chen then placed Talisman Inscriptions in his room to isolate the inside from the outside world and began to cultivate. He wanted to seize every minute and second to enhance his Cultivation.

In the days following, other powers from within the Great Flame Dynasty also arrived one after another.

On the eighth day after Lin Chen and the others had arrived, the Soaring Dragon Conference finally began.

The venue for the Soaring Dragon Conference was a massive square surrounded by countless platforms and a ring of seats, with numerous spectators gathered to watch.

However, not just anyone was privileged to enter those platforms; only those who paid a great sum could gain access.

Therefore, each year’s Soaring Dragon Conference proved to be quite profitable for the Great Flame Dynasty’s Royal Family.

As trumpets sounded, the Soaring Dragon Conference officially commenced. In the central high platform of the square, a middle-aged man in a yellow dragon robe took the stage, radiating a majestic presence with a profound aura about him.

This man was none other than the Emperor of the Great Flame Dynasty’s Royal Family, Zhao Zhongtian.
