Chapter 170: The Shock of the Three Dragon Kings

The Three Dragon Kings remained standing in the sky, their presence dark and overwhelming, stretching beyond the horizon. 

Countless clouds filled the sky, making it impossible to see the edges, but it was clear that a massive force had arrived.

The Dragon King's guards, cautious and vigilant, looked at the Three Dragon Kings but refrained from taking any action. They knew they were no match for them. 

The Three Dragon Kings exchanged glances, nodding in silent agreement.

They understood the temperament of their Dragon Emperor, Zhu Kun, very well. If he had truly returned, he would have shown his fury by now. But after shouting for so long, receiving no response, it was evident that Zhu Kun hadn't come back.

Not coming back was good news!

If Zhu Kun had returned, their good days would be over. But if he hadn't, they could continue their lavish lifestyles. Who could stop the Three Dragon Kings?

However, before they resumed the celebration, they needed to figure out one thing: where did the recent Dragon Emperor's aura come from?

The elders of the East Dragon Island, including the Chief Elder, approached the scene. Among them was also Hun Tiandi, observing the sky.

The West Dragon King grinned, murmuring to himself, "People have a lot to say about the Dragon Emperor, but I believe the times have changed. The era now belongs to the Three Kings. Without our benevolence, your East Dragon Island would not have survived. You should thank us!"

The Chief Elder, named Qing Shan, had a dark expression as he faced the West Dragon King. "West King, don't spout nonsense and unfounded rumors. One day, the Dragon Emperor will return. As blood relatives of the Dragon Emperor, you should know his character and principles."

"He detests betrayal the most. When the Dragon Emperor returns, you Three Kings won't be able to escape."

"Humph!" The North Dragon King snorted, "Qing Shan, don't test our patience with your daring challenges." 

"You should know us Three Dragon Kings well; we mean what we say. Don't provoke us, Qing Shan, and honestly tell us where that recent Dragon Emperor's aura came from."

"After all, we don't want to destroy East Dragon Island. The Ancient Void Dragon Clan on East Dragon Island is also our kin, and we don't wish to see our own kind fighting. So, be smart, Qing Shan, and don't push us too far!"

"If you push us to our limits, there's nothing we won't do."

"You..." Qing Shan was furious, but he knew better than to take on the three powerful Dragon Kings singlehandedly.

"Simply put, you're behaving like beasts!" he retorted, seething with rage.

The Three Dragon Kings' threat was undeniable, and Qing Shan didn't want to escalate the situation further. But he couldn't divulge where the recent Dragon Emperor's aura had come from either.

The Three Dragon Kings stood firm, waiting for a response, but it seemed the East Dragon Island elders were not going to give them the answers they sought. The situation remained tense, with both parties at an impasse.

And so, the Three Dragon Kings' anger simmered beneath the surface, as they assessed their next course of action. 

The confrontation between the four most powerful beings in the Ancient Void Dragon Clan had begun, and the fate of East Dragon Island hung in the balance.

There was a slight gap in strength between the four of them, but Qing Shan still wanted to crush these three arrogant old bastards. However, his current power did not allow for such an action.

"Beasts?" North Dragon King chuckled after hearing Qing Shan's insult. 

"You're right. We are all beasts. Everyone here is a beast. Let me remind you, Qing Shan, when you insult someone, first be clear about what we are. We are dragons, Ancient Void Dragons. Aren't we beasts?"

"Shameless..." Qing Shan's face turned red, and his body trembled as he managed to spit out the word.

"Shameless?" the North Dragon King replied with a smile. 

"Thank you for the compliment. I quite like being called shameless. Can you do anything about us? Before absolute power, you are nothing but ants struggling in vain. In my eyes, you are all just fools."

Qing Shan gritted his teeth, but he knew he couldn't challenge the Three Dragon Kings alone.

The atmosphere became even more oppressive as the Three Dragon Kings' terrifying aura permeated the surroundings. It wasn't just their overwhelming strength that caused fear; it was also the might of their bloodlines.

Under their combined pressure, many strong individuals present couldn't withstand it and knelt down. Only a few remained standing.

Hun Tiandi observed the Three Dragon Kings with disdain. In his eyes, they were like three clowns jumping around.

He thought, "These three are not ruthless enough. If they want to control the Ancient Void Dragon Clan, they shouldn't be concerned about this or that." 

"They will never become the true Dragon Emperor of the Ancient Void Dragons. They won't have any chances because I'm here now."

Hun Tiandi stepped forward and asked, "Do you want to know where the recent Dragon Emperor's aura came from?"

"Who are you?" The Three Dragon Kings were taken aback when they saw Hun Tiandi step forward.

They were familiar with the powerful figures of the Ancient Void Dragon Clan and had seen most of them before, but this person was a stranger.

Normally, they wouldn't have paid attention to Hun Tiandi, but under his aura, only a few people managed to remain standing. The fact that Hun Tiandi stood unperturbed despite their oppressive presence showed his immense strength.

Curiosity arose among the Three Dragon Kings about the identity of this enigmatic figure.

Hun Tiandi replied indifferently, "You don't need to know who I am. I'm asking you, do you want to know where the recent Dragon Emperor's aura came from?"

His words were arrogant, causing the Three Dragon Kings to feel irritated. However, they also realized that Hun Tiandi was mysterious and powerful, so they didn't dare act recklessly.

The North Dragon King asked, "Do you know where the recent Dragon Emperor's aura came from?"

"Yes," Hun Tiandi nodded.

Then, he extended his hand...

The ancient and simple token floated in the palm of Hun Tiandi's hand, emanating a faint but undeniable aura of authority.

"This..."

The Three Dragon Kings were no longer composed. Their pupils shrank in astonishment, and their overwhelming aura diminished by half. They trembled as they exclaimed, "The Dragon Emperor's Token!"

The sight of the token left the Three Dragon Kings dumbfounded, and the shock in their hearts was beyond words.

"How do you have the Dragon Emperor's Token?" They couldn't believe their eyes, and their voices quivered in disbelief.

"Where did you get the Dragon Emperor's Token from?" The North Dragon King gradually regained his composure, staring at Hun Tiandi with astonishment.

The appearance of the Dragon Emperor's Token meant that Zhu Kun, the Dragon Emperor, was still alive.

If Zhu Kun was alive and returned, and learned about their actions, the Three Dragon Kings would be completely finished.
