The Legendary Son-in-law of the Emperor
Chapter 352 - 351: Raising Dragons

Chapter 352: Chapter 351: Raising Dragons

Ye Xuan’s single statement directly intimidated the "dragon" beneath the Divine Pond.

After a while, Ye Xuan withdrew his hand.

What was eerie was that Ye Xuan’s hand was not wet with any pond water.

Just now, Ye Xuan had indeed stretched it into the Divine Pond.

But only Ye Xuan knew that the water in the Divine Pond was not actually water, but a substance quite out of the ordinary.

Ye Xuan reinserted his hands into his pockets, his eyebrows slightly furrowed, remaining silent.

The Sovereign of the Sect stood by his side, glanced at the Divine Pond, then at Ye Xuan, and asked softly, "Young friend Ye, what do you think?"

Ye Xuan shook his head slightly and said, "Primitive."

"Primitive?" The Sovereign of the Sect was somewhat puzzled.

"Your methods of raising dragons are too primitive; on this matter, you should learn from the Supreme Pavilion," Ye Xuan stated lightly.

Upon hearing this, the Sovereign of the Sect involuntarily gasped.

At this moment, the Sovereign of the Sect realized that the ancient ancestor’s words were indeed true.

The origins of Ye Xuan were absolutely, very very terrifying.

As for what exactly those origins were, perhaps only the oldest ancestor of the Immortal King Hall had a slight conjecture, but it was just a conjecture, afraid to think too deeply about it.

Even if he thought of it, he would not speak much.

The Sovereign of the Sect naturally did not know these details, but he was quite clear that when Ye Xuan spoke those words, it indicated that Ye Xuan’s origins were terrifying.

Methods of raising dragons.

Although it was called raising dragons, what it entailed, only the Immortal King Hall and Ye Xuan truly understood.

Moreover, Ye Xuan mentioned the Supreme Pavilion right away.

This greatly shocked the Sovereign of the Sect.

The Supreme Pavilion, like the Immortal King Hall, was also a very ancient and invincible power, in a state of seclusion.

However, the Supreme Pavilion was not located in the Southern Domain nor in the East Desolate, but in the Central Earth Divine Continent where the Heaven Suppressing Ancient Sect was located.

The antiquity of the Supreme Pavilion was comparable to that of the Immortal King Hall, its origins untraceable.

Moreover, the Supreme Pavilion had gone into seclusion even earlier and more thoroughly than the Immortal King Hall.

The Immortal King Hall at least established the Immortal King Valley, whereas the Supreme Pavilion seemed to have completely vanished from the world, only to be read about in some ancient texts of ancient families.

But Ye Xuan could mention it suddenly, and even associating the method of raising dragons with the Supreme Pavilion, which was very frightening.

In fact, the Sovereign of the Sect was well aware that the method of raising dragons of the Immortal King Hall was just an imitation of that of the Supreme Pavilion, merely lacking the essence.

In contrast, the method of raising dragons of the Supreme Pavilion was very mature, already forming a system.

This was also why the Supreme Pavilion had flourished eternally.

The Immortal King Hall, naturally, sought the same, to flourish eternally.

But the Immortal King Hall was essentially different from the Supreme Pavilion, first in that their method of raising dragons was immature and second in their fundamental existence.

Over the endless ages, the Immortal King Hall even nearly got wiped out several times.

That is why the Immortal King Hall decided to learn from the Supreme Pavilion.

Thus, the practice of raising dragons came into being.

"I hope, Young friend Ye, that you will not be stingy in teaching us," the Sovereign of the Sect bowed respectfully to Ye Xuan and said earnestly.

If anyone were here, they would be immensely shocked.

The Sovereign of the Immortal King Hall, what kind of stature was that?

It can be stated clearly, not to mention the entire Southern Domain, even if placed in the entire East Desolation Domain, he was an invincible overlord, a venerable figure.

But now, this Sovereign of the Immortal King Hall was bowing to Ye Xuan.

However, Ye Xuan accepted it calmly.

To outsiders, the identity of the Sovereign of the Immortal King Hall was unbeatable.

But the identity of the Undying Night Emperor, that goes without saying.

The two, completely incomparable.

Just like hills on the ground and the eternally existing sun and moon in the starry sky.

Completely not on the same level.

"There’s no teaching to be done," Ye Xuan shook his head slightly.

As soon as he spoke, the face of the Sovereign of the Sect immediately changed.

"However..."

Ye Xuan played coy.

"However what? Just speak freely, Young friend Ye," the Sovereign of the Sect followed Ye Xuan’s words.

"However, if the Immortal King Hall could give me three Emperor Body Pills, I might consider it," Ye Xuan pretended to ponder.

These words immediately made the corners of the Sovereign of the Sect’s mouth twitch.

Damn it.

This is extortion!

"Three Emperor Body Pills, you shouldn’t feel this is a loss, knowing what a failed dragon raising could cause, you should understand better than me," Ye Xuan said with a smile.

That demeanor was exactly that of a cunning merchant!

The Sovereign of the Sect secretly held his forehead, only able to say with determination, "Regarding the Emperor Body Pills, I will have someone arrange it; as for the matter of raising dragons, please take it to heart, Young friend Ye."

Ye Xuan smiled slightly and nodded, "Well, seeing the sincerity of the Immortal King Hall, it would be wrong of me to refuse further."

The Sovereign of the Sect couldn’t help but feel embarrassed.

This fellow really had his tricks, far too proficient at this.

Ye Xuan immediately sat cross-legged on the ground, facing the Divine Pond, his back to the Sovereign of the Sect, and said softly, "Go find me a piece of Demon Beast Skin, the rank of the Demon Beast does not matter, but it must be over a hundred thousand years old."

"Prepare another Holy Rank Spiritual Pattern Pen for me," he said.

"Add a million Top Grade Spirit Stones as well."

If these items were to be placed in the outside world, they would absolutely cause a huge uproar.

Each item was almost a relic that had vanished from the world.

Yet, when spoken from Ye Xuan’s lips, they seemed just like ordinary objects.

Even those million Top Grade Spirit Stones were not easy to procure.

Even a first-rate power would struggle to produce a million Top Grade Spirit Stones all at once.

"Very well!"

However, the Sovereign of the Sect from Immortal King Hall didn’t even think before agreeing immediately and then left, presumably to make preparations.

His actions could only be described as swift and decisive.

After the Sovereign of the Sect from Immortal King Hall had left, Ye Xuan gazed into the Divine Pond, his eyes deep, as if he intended to see through everything.

The ’dragon’ beneath the Divine Pond, feeling Ye Xuan’s gaze, actually shrank down, daring not to show itself.

Ye Xuan snorted coldly and muttered, "Raising a dragon is not so easy, otherwise dragon keepers would be everywhere in this world."

"In all the Heavens and Myriads of Worlds, across the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, only the Supreme Pavilion has truly succeeded."

"Those who have failed... their ends have been very, very miserable..."

"It is only because it’s your Immortal King Hall. Had it been any other power choosing to raise a dragon, this Emperor would not have intervened."

This statement, it was unclear whether he was muttering to himself or speaking to someone.

In the Immortal King Hall, the oldest ancestor, lying in the darkness, heard that whispering voice. His body became icy cold, and he couldn’t help but want to open his eyes.

But ultimately, he closed them again.

He didn’t speak.

Nor did he show himself.

But he knew, his guess was correct.

Ye Xuan...

He was the Undying Night Emperor!

Actually, when Ye Xuan had crossed the ninety-nine steps of the Heavenly Ladder, he had already begun to think in that direction.

But because the conjecture was so astonishing, he didn’t dare think too deeply about it.

After all, he was very aware of what the four words "Undying Night Emperor" carried.

Because he knew,

he was afraid.

Who among those inheritances, as ancient as they were, wouldn’t fear the Undying Night Emperor?

Sun Swallowing Sect?

Heaven Suppressing Ancient Sect?

Supreme Pavilion?

All feared him.

There was none who didn’t fear.

Because they all knew very well how vast the influence of the Undying Night Emperor was through the ages.

Emperor Ye was a name.

But Undying was an eternal myth!

That myth affected one era after another.

This had been deduced by the head of Immortal King Hall throughout the generations.

He himself was also once head of the sect, so he knew many things.

"No wonder, when he reached the end, the Immortal King Bell rang, and the mountains echoed with the chimes of Sword Bells ..."

The ancient ancestor trembled in his heart.

He dared not express any thoughts.

He also felt a trace of relief.

Fortunately, he had not acted recklessly, allowing Ye Xuan to stay.

The reason he had the Sect Leader keep Ye Xuan was because he wanted to guess Ye Xuan’s identity.

If it was true, then the eternal grand plan of Immortal King Hall would have a solution.

The Undying Night Emperor, after all, taking into account old affections, was willing to give a hand to Immortal King Hall.

As for the three Emperor Body Pills...

Compared to the eternal grand plan of Immortal King Hall, what were they?

"Ha, such a coward,"

Ye Xuan sat cross-legged in front of the Divine Pond, chuckling softly.

He was naturally mocking that oldest ancestor of Immortal King Hall who, upon learning his identity, didn’t even dare to come out to meet him.

If this wasn’t cowardice, what is?

"After all, he’s one of the oldest beings in existence, why act so timid?"

Ye Xuan shook his head in amusement.

"What is Young Friend Ye talking about?" the Sovereign of the Sect appeared once again, this time holding a Storage Ring.

"Nothing, just leave the items and kindly leave,"

"Do not disturb me for the next half month."
