Chapter 1412: Chapter 1408: Spare His Life Chapter 1412: Chapter 1408: Spare His Life “What is this power that can suppress the True Dragon Bloodline within us? Could it be the legendary Ancestral Dragon's Power?” Ao Zhong exclaimed in shock, his expression drastically changing.

“Ancestral Dragon?” Shen Luo's eyes flickered. He seemed to recall having come across this term in some classic, referring to the ancestor of all Dragon Clan members.

“Hehe, Prince Ao Zhong of the East Sea Dragon Palace, you are indeed well-read! Yes, this is the power of Hongmeng Ancestral Dragon, the common ancestor of all our Dragon Clan. If we can fully grasp the Ancestral Dragon's Power, our Four Seas Dragon Clan will fear no one. We can stand equal with the Heavenly Court and restore the supreme glory of our Ancient Dragon Clan!” Ao Run revealed a wildly fanatic gleam in his eyes.

“Prince Ao Zhong, Prince Ao Hong, Big Brother is outdated. For the future of our Dragon Clan, we must remove him. Among all the princes of the Eastern Sea, only you two see the bigger picture. Join us, and I can pass on the Ancestral Dragon's Power to you both, so we can strive for the future of our Dragon Clan together!” Beside him, Ao Qin waved his hand, and a golden light group appeared, his aura surging instantly as he looked towards Ao Hong and Ao Zhong.

Ao Zhong's gaze flickered unceasingly as he looked at the golden light in their hands, seemingly tempted.

“Second Brother, these thieves plot in darkness against our Father King. They are our sworn enemies in the East Sea Dragon Palace. We cannot trust their words!” Ao Hong hurriedly said, upon seeing Ao Zhong's expression.

“Sworn enemies? I didn't expect that Prince Ao Hong would be so short-sighted, incapable of plotting. Prince Ao Zhong, you are a smart man, do not make a foolish mistake. If you kill Ao Hong, you will be the new Dragon King of the Eastern Sea. Once the Four Seas unite and successfully summon the Ancestral Dragon, it will be the day we change Heaven and Earth!” South Sea Dragon King Ao Qin gave Ao Hong a cold look, as he tried to persuade Ao Zhong.

Hearing this, Ao Zhong's expression changed drastically, but soon he fell silent again.

“Prince Ao Zhong, do not listen to their bewitching words. Today, these four have already killed your father. How could they not fear your revenge? Would they truly sincerely rally you to their cause, or do they merely want to incite strife between you and your brother?” Shen Luo warned, his eyes flashing briefly.

The situation seemed about to devolve into internal strife among the Dragon Clan, and being an outsider, he had no place to interject. However, the Sink Blood Nine Dragons Pearl was still in the East Sea Dragon Palace, and he couldn't allow the other Three Sea Dragon Kings to take control of it.

“Hmph, matters of the Dragon Clan, when is it your turn, a human, to interject? Shut your mouth!” Ao Run suddenly turned towards Shen Luo, a water-blue Longsword appearing in his hand, which he swung vigorously to the left and right at Shen Luo.

Two long water-patterned sword scars, each ten feet in length, tore through the air, surrounded by layers of blue light, emitting the roaring sound of angry waves.

Seeing this, Shen Luo sneered coldly and swung his hand, releasing two red Sword Qi.

“Bang” “Bang” – the sounds of the swords clashing echoed as the water-patterned sword scars shattered in response, and the red Sword Qi flickered twice before dissipating.

Ao Run's pupils contracted, but he did not continue his attack.

Shen Luo had demonstrated exceptional strength in his recent fights with Ao Yu and Ao Shun, and now he had casually blocked Ao Run's strike from the Frost Cold Nine Realms Sword–a feat that should not be underestimated.

However, Ao Run had not exerted his real strength just now and, despite his wariness, did not think he couldn't handle Shen Luo.

“The Hongmeng Ancestral Dragon indeed is the supreme leader of our Dragon Clan, possessing earth-shattering powers. If you wish to summon him, I can help, but how can I trust that you won't eliminate me as well?” Ao Zhong hesitated for a long time before slowly speaking out.

“Second Brother!” Ao Hong's face showed an incredulous expression, but Ao Zhong completely ignored him.

“Prince Ao Zhong truly is a wise man. There's no need to worry about what concerns you. The East Sea Dragon Palace possesses profound strength. If we eliminate Ao Guang and no one controls the situation, the entire Dragon Palace will inevitably descend into chaos, which is not what we desire. Moreover, summoning Lord Ancestral Dragon requires using your East Sea Dragon Palace's Sink Blood Nine Dragons Pearl, which no one but the East Sea Dragon King can manipulate. Thus, both for stabilizing the situation in the Eastern Sea and for summoning Lord Ancestral Dragon, establishing a new Dragon King is essential,” Ao Qin said with a smile.

Hearing this, Shen Luo's eyes narrowed slightly.

“If Ao Hong and Ao Zhong chose to reconcile with the other Three Sea Dragon Kings, he had no intention to get involved,” Shen Luo murmured, seemingly resigned. “But since people like Ao Qin set their sights on the Sink Blood Nine Dragons Pearl, I have no choice but to ask.”

“Is it possible not to kill Ao Hong?” Ao Zhong asked, his face relaxing slightly upon hearing this, and then he added another question after a moment's thought.

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone present showed a look of surprise.

“Alas…” Shen Luo quietly shook his head and couldn't help but sigh.

“No one saw it coming, huh? The brotherly bond between you is quite deep. At a time like this, when it's the best time to vie for power and reputation, you actually think about sparing his life? But… are you sure he would appreciate your kindness?” Ao Qin looked at Ao Hong with a smile and asked.

“Dream on,” Ao Hong glared furiously at his fallen father on the ground, his eyes nearly blazing with rage. “I would rather die in battle than submit to you.”

“See? A dog biting Lu Dongbin,” Ao Run shrugged and said. “We've watched this little brother of yours grow up. It's no surprise to us that he made this choice; we never thought of recruiting him in the first place. However, keeping him alive is always a disaster, so why not let your uncle take care of him, to eliminate future troubles?”

“Then I'll leave it to you,” Ao Zhong sighed and slowly turned his back, no longer looking at Ao Hong.

Ao Run and Ao Shun exchanged glances, and their figures moved simultaneously. One to the left and one to the right, they flanked Ao Hong.

“Dragon Chant, ride the wind and break the waves,” Ao Run shouted loudly.

A clear dragon chant resonated as both he and Ao Shun manifested dragon shadows that soared into the sky and roared. Their aura suddenly spiked to the peak of True Immortal, and they moved like ghostly specters, transforming into two blurred afterimages that vanished.

Ao Hong's heart chilled when he saw this.

These two old fellows were using lethal moves right from the start, showing no mercy at all.

While the two Dragon Kings made their move, the South Sea Dragon King Ao Qin watched coldly from the sidelines, his gaze seemingly fixed on Ao Hong but actually carefully monitoring Ao Zhong.

However, Ao Zhong stood with his back to the scene, showing no intention of intervening.

In an instant, the two Dragon Kings appeared simultaneously, one above and to the left, the other below and to the right, each transforming a palm into a dragon claw. Their five clawed fingers glistened with a cold light as they reached for Ao Hong's head and Dantian respectively.

Ao Hong was about to move, but it was already too late. He had just taken a step back when the two dragon claws closed in from both sides, piercing his head and Dantian and simultaneously tearing his body into fragments.

“Ao Hong…” Shen Luo exclaimed subconsciously.

But before his words had time to fall, he saw that the torn figure spilled no blood, but instead transformed into a series of transparent bubbles that dispersed.

The next instant, a sound of breaking air suddenly came from behind the North Sea Dragon King Ao Shun!

A streak of cold light tore through the void, and a bright Silver Spear suddenly thrust out from it, aiming straight for the heart of Ao Shun's back.

Following the Silver Spear was the chilling face of Ao Hong, and an unmistakably fierce murderous intent.
