I will become the Demon Immortal known to the whole world-Chapter 430 - 24 The East Sea Submits
Chapter 430: Chapter 24 The East Sea Submits
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Azure Dragon was the first to kneel.
The powerful members of the Dragon Race standing at both sides had eyes filled with both trepidation and excitement. None were fools; they seemed to understand something.
After Azure Dragon knelt, they knelt as well.
"Honor the command of the Dragon Monarch."
Then, they retreated in an orderly manner.
After the court meeting had ended, the entire West Sea began operating at full capacity.
A series of envoys set out one after another, travelling at the greatest speed towards the Southern and Northern Seas.
At the same time, nine red Flood Dragons, pulling a golden chariot, rushed towards the East Sea.
Like a round sun, they illuminated sea region after sea region, with nothing to hide their brilliance.
.....
East Sea.
Unlike the Dragon Palace of the West Sea built deep within Chaos, the Dragon Palace of the East Sea was constructed under the sea, occupying one-tenth of the entire East Sea.
It was immensely grand, magnificent, and dazzling.
But at this moment, the grandeur of this vast palace was stripped of its usual elegance and luxury.
Shouts of argument, curses, and the sounds of battle sporadically emerged from within the palace.
"Old Eighteen, don’t forget, I am the strongest among my father’s descendants. Contending with me is a death wish."
A Flood Dragon with a fierce countenance caused ripples with every movement.
Its draconic eyes looked down, gazing at another Flood Dragon sprawled on the ground, its pupils filled with a bone-piercing intent to kill.
The moment the Battle of Ruins ended, the jade tablet belonging to the East Sea Dragon Monarch within the palace shattered.
When the news spread throughout the entire palace,
A battle inevitably broke out. Various Dragon Sons fought and killed each other, all vying for the position of Dragon Monarch, aspiring to become the ruler of the boundless seas.
In the end, it was he who emerged victorious. Now, all that was left was to deal with the West Sea Dragon Monarch.
Everything would soon come to a conclusion.
All kinds of thoughts continually raced through his mind.
The Crown Prince gradually subdued the killing intent in his eyes and spoke to an old man with a Turtle Shell on his back:
"Elder Turtle, please take the eighteenth brother away and confine him in the side hall."
The old man nodded.
Since the conflict for the throne of the Dragon Monarch had concluded, the Turtle Clan could assist this Dragon Monarch in handling affairs.
With a grasp of his hand, the weakened Flood Dragon began to shrink and was held in the palm of the old man.
"The West Sea Dragon Monarch’s visit this time likely harbors malicious intent."
"Of course, there’s malicious intent. Father has just passed, and he has already arrived."
The Crown Prince retracted his true form and transformed into human shape, his face looking grave.
"But that Azure Dragon who came from the Lower Realm indeed has remarkable strength, to be able to slay Third Uncle."
"To make him retreat this time will certainly come at a significant cost."
"Your Majesty, a necessary price must be paid. The East Sea needs time to regain its strength."
The old man analyzed carefully.
"I know what to do!"
Seeing the Crown Prince heeding his advice,
The old man nodded, stepped forward, and gradually vanished from sight.
Nine days!
Ao! Ao!~
Atop the vast East Sea, dragon roars echoed between heaven and earth.
An endless authority, mixed with burning vitality, enveloped everything, causing infinite beings to tremble.
"The West Sea Dragon Monarch has arrived; why not send ahead a greeting card for us to welcome you from afar?" A loud laugh spread through the sea.
Two figures leaped from the sea surface.
One was a dignified middle-aged man dressed in a Dragon Robe.
The other was an elderly man with a green Turtle Shell on his back, standing behind the middle-aged man with a respectful expression.
Azure Dragon stood inside the chariot, looking at the Crown Prince who had come to welcome them, his eyes flickering. The East Sea Dragon Monarch must have met with a mishap.
Otherwise, how could it be that a junior was welcoming them?
Liang Hui stood staunchly in the chariot, supporting himself on the railing, his gaze falling downward:
"The Dragon Palaces of the Four Seas are interconnected. The East Sea Dragon Monarch was slain in an ambush by the Demon Tribe, and I am deeply grieved by this news."
"Father was killed in an ambush by the Demon Tribe? How do you know this," the Crown Prince asked, his expression puzzled.
Liang Hui’s demeanor was indifferent, showing no intention of responding as he continued:
"Before the East Sea Dragon Monarch’s passing, he transmitted a message to me, entrusting me to oversee the Dragon Race’s affairs."
The youth stepped forward, standing atop the head of a Flood Dragon, his head slightly bowed, and enunciated each word:
"Now all of you kneel down!!"
Boom!
The Crown Prince, usually a figure of nobility and valor, now had a face contorted in savagery.
"To ask me to kneel, how dare a mixed dragon from the Lower Realm be so bold."
The old turtle advanced with a slight bow in his body.
"East Sea Dragon Monarch, my lord is now the reigning Dragon Monarch."
"The death of the former East Sea Dragon Monarch cannot be concluded in such a hasty manner."
"We must obtain accurate information to verify the truth, please go back."
"Are you finished?"
Liang Hui’s mouth curled into a sinister smile, his body leaning forward, his arm lifting.
His five fingers spread open and slammed down with a thunderous force!
"Then go to hell!"
Crack! Bang!
Bodies broke apart, blood and white bones splattered.
In an instant, two massive carcasses fell upon the ocean, staining the entire area red.
The so-called newly appointed East Sea Dragon Monarch and the strong members of the Turtle Clan floated lifelessly in the sea so easily.
There was no resistance throughout the ordeal, or rather, there was no strength to resist.
The dragons standing on the chariot were filled with terror.
The Emperor’s actions were too explosive, too ruthless, causing even them to tremble with fear.
"Follow me!"
A soft whisper, as though coming from hell.
Instantly awakening the stunned dragons, they watched the advancing figure.
They immediately drove their chariots to keep up.
Liang Hui moved forward, walking slowly into the Dragon Palace, admiring the splendid palace in front of him.
With a casual flick of the hand, he slashed one strong being after another.
Those who resisted were killed, those who begged for mercy lived.
It was that simple, that clear-cut.
Dragon Race or Guest Elder, there was no difference.
Gradually, on the land, the ground was paved with blood, and all the living beings kneeled, forming a dark mass.
Liang Hui stood on the staircase, shaking his palm to get rid of the dripping blood.
"As the East Sea Dragon Monarch lay dying, he entrusted me with overseeing the great affairs of the Dragon Race."
The same words were spoken again.
At that moment, the atmosphere became even more oppressive and silent, yet still no being dared to speak first.
"Ha!"
Liang Hui chuckled lightly, his eyes indifferent as a god’s, his hand reaching out once more.
"Half of them!"
’What does he mean by half?’ the numerous beings kneeling on the ground wondered.
The next moment, darkness fell!
The dragon claws occupying half of the Dragon Palace emerged above, and suddenly pressed down.
Boom! Boom! Boom!.....
Dense, blood-colored fireworks burst open within the Dragon Palace.
The blood rose, covering the majestic palace in a layer of blood mist.
The surviving beings saw half of their number perish in an instant.
Not one less, not one more.
Compared to killing one by one, the shock of half of the Dragon Palace’s beings dying together silenced all who were present.
"As the East Sea Dragon Monarch lay dying, he entrusted me with overseeing the great affairs of the Dragon Race."
"What is your intention?"
The playful laughter rose once more.
"Your Majesty, I shall rule over the East Sea; anyone who dares to defy will be killed by me."
A dragon kneeling on the ground roared with blood-red eyes, scanning all the living beings surrounding him.
"None but Your Majesty deserve the title of Dragon Monarch."
"We are willing to honor Your Majesty’s command!"
"Your Majesty, we hold no other thoughts."
...
One after another, the beings began to speak, with no hint of hesitation or doubt.
Liang Hui’s extended hand gently pressed downward.
In an instant, all noise ceased, falling into silence.
All the beings kneeling on the ground awaited his command.
This was a level of submissiveness that not even the living East Sea Dragon Monarch had ever seen.
