Chapter 309 Ch 309: Fourth Stage Martial Saint
_Imperial Palace_
Jin Wudi brought Ye Xiao to the Imperial Palace and let him stay in a room for the time being. After settling him there, Jin Wudi went to inform his father.
The Dragon Emperor was shocked when he heard Jin Wudi telling him that the Heaven Devouring Divine Dragon has come to their Imperial Palace and he wants to know the location of the Grand Xia Empire because his father is there.
It never occurred in Dragon Emperor's mind that there were two Heaven Devouring Divine Dragon in this world. When he heard the loud yet domineering voice a few years ago, he only thought that there was one dragon and he even doubted if that dragon was worthy to be called the Heaven Devouring Divine Dragon.
Now that the young Heaven Devouring Divine Dragon was here, after being shocked, he immediately became excited. His face was now full of enthusiasm.
The Dragon Emperor wanted to go and meet Ye Xiao immediately but he held himself back. Instead of going to meet Ye Xiao, he first went to the Forbidden Ground to inform his ancestor about Ye Xiao.
When the Dragon Ancestor heard this, he immediately stood up. When he thought about it more carefully, he guessed that there might be some connection between Ye Xiao and the fluctuation of energy he felt before.
Well, after hearing that the Heaven Devouring Divine Dragon was here, the Dragon Ancestor decided to meet him.
Fifteen minutes later, The Dragon Emperor was sitting in front of Ye Xiao with Dragon Ancestor. Jin Wudi was also there.
"So, you are Heaven Devouring Divine Dragon?" The Dragon Emperor asked.
"Yes, I am!" Ye Xiao firmly nodded his head.
"I heard from Wudi that you want to know the location of the Grand Xia Empire, and your father is also there?" The Dragon Emperor again asked.
Ye Xiao smiled and replied, "Yes! Since you all already know, can you tell me the location of the Grand Xia Empire? In return, I can give you anything you ask for but yes... it should be under the condition that I have them or I can obtain them."
Hua!
When the Dragon Emperor and Dragon Ancestor heard him, they looked at each other first before looking at Ye Xiao again.
The Dragon Ancestor tried to probe Ye Xiao's cultivation but for some reason, he failed to see his cultivation. The Dragon Ancestor never thought that Ye Xiao must have used some sort of secret technique to hide his cultivation. He didn't think much over it.
As for Ye Xiao's offer, after secretly talking with the Dragon Emperor via voice transmission, the Dragon Ancestor gave Ye Xiao a small map where the location of the Grand Xia Empire was marked. After that, he said, "You told me that you can give us anything!"
Ye Xiao nodded his head and seeing that, the Dragon Ancestor again said, "Can you tell me about you... I mean... About the Heaven Devouring Divine Dragon. We are dragons and we, the Golden Dragons ruled over the Dragon Empire for hundreds of thousands of years and we are still ruling, but even after so many years, we never heard of a dragon named the Heaven Devouring Divine Dragon. Can you tell me what kind of dragon are you?"
Ye Xiao frowned his eyes a little before saying, "There is nothing to say. The Heaven Devouring Divine Dragons are just ordinary dragons. There is nothing special about us."
Although Ye Xiao said so, be it the Dragon Ancestor or the Dragon Emperor, none of them believed him. A few years ago, they had clearly heard that domineering voice that had travelled all the way from the Grand Xia Empire to all over the world. How can such a dragon be just an ordinary dragon?
After all, Jin Wudi told them before that he felt suppression from Ye Xiao's dragon's aura. It was the aura that can suppress the bloodline of the Colossal Golden Dragon. How can the owner of such aura be just an ordinary dragon?
Although they knew this, they didn't ask Ye Xiao anything. They clearly understood that Ye Xiao did not want to tell them the truth.
Although Ye Xiao did not tell them anything about the Heaven Devouring Divine Dragon, but since he already got the map from the Dragon Ancestor, he decided to return the favour.
Ye Xiao took out a stalk of Water Spirit Herb and gave it to the Dragon Ancestor, saying, "This is a Seventh Grade Medicinal Herb called the Water Spirit Herb. It can help a Martial Saint Realm cultivator break through two or more stages of the same realm!"
The Dragon Ancestor was already at the Fifth Stage of the Martial Ancestor Realm and he had not advanced in his cultivation for more than two hundred years. He thought that there is no chance for him to advance his cultivation further but now, Ye Xiao has given him a treasure that can let him break through two or more stages in his cultivation. How can he not be happy?
The Dragon Ancestor immediately took the stalk of Water Spirit Herb from Ye Xiao and said that he appreciated Ye Xiao for giving him the Water Spirit Herb.
After talking with the Dragon Ancestor and the Dragon Emperor for a short while, Ye Xiao bid his farewell to them.
"Woosh!"
Ye Xiao suddenly vanished from his spot. Ye Xiao's speed was so fast that only the Dragon Ancestor saw him going outside while in the eyes of the Dragon emperor and Jin Wudi, Ye Xiao simply vanished from his spot.
Since he had already given the Water Spirit Herb to the Dragon Ancestor, Ye Xiao immediately left. He did not want to stay there anymore as he could clearly greed in the eyes of the Dragon Emperor.
.....
_Grand Xia Empire, Azure Dragon Country_
In the Imperial City of the Azure Dragon Country, a figure was slowly walking while looking here and there. Not long after, he arrived at the Alchemist Association.
"Master, After more than three years, I have finally returned!" Ye Xiao muttered slowly while looking at the Alchemist Association.
It's been fifteen days since he left the Dragon Empire. After thirteen days of flying over the vast sea, he finally returned to the Grand Xia Empire. After arriving at the Grand Xia Empire, it took Ye Xiao two days to return to the Azure Dragon Country.
Taking a long breath, Ye Xiao entered the Alchemist Association. He arrived at the reception and asked if his master, Grandmaster Wang was here or not.
To his surprise, he got to know that his master had long left the Alchemist Association and went somewhere unknown. He also received the letter his master left for him in the Alchemist Association.
Ye Xiao came out of the Alchemist Association. Then he went to an inn and rented a room for three days.
Inside the room, Ye Xiao sat down on his bed and entered the Heavenly Pearl. Then he opened the letter and started to read it. The more he read, the more surprised he became.
It turns out that his master was someone from the Upper Realm which he had already suspected before. What shocked him was the fact that his master was an Immortal Emperor when he was still at his peak. He was attacked by the joint force of his enemies and was injured very badly. Because of his injuries, his cultivation started to fell down.
It was his good friend, old man Tong who saved him at a critical moment and brought him to the Azure Sky Continent to hide.
After consuming the drop of Vitality Essence that Ye Xiao gave Lin Hao to deliver to Grandmaster Wang, Grandmaster Wang's injuries immediately recovered and his cultivation also started to recover slowly.
After recovering from his injuries, Grandmaster Wang went back to the Upper Realm. He also wrote down his address in the letter. Knowing the address, Ye Xiao could meet Grandmaster Wang after ascending to the Upper Realm.
Ye Xiao took a long breath after knowing all of this.
It turned out that his master was actually an Immortal Emperor when he was still at his peak.
Well, after reading the letter, Ye Xiao took a deep breath and went to the Second Floor of the Nine Story Pagoda.
After plucking out another stalk of the Water Spirit Herb, Ye Xiao went to the First Floor of the Nine Story Pagoda, sat down cross-legged, and swallowed the Water Spirit Herb.
The moment he swallowed the Water Spirit Herb, a burst of spirit energy immediately rushed inside his body and started to wreak havoc.
Ye Xiao immediately started to circulate the Third Layer of the Nine Dragon Universal Circulation Technique and slowly refine the burst of energy of the Water Spirit Herb.
Not long after, Ye Xiao successfully refined the energy of the Water Spirit Herb, successfully advancing to Peak of the Fourth Stage of the Martial Saint Realm.
He broke through two minor stages in one go.
