Villain : After Slacking Off, The Protagonist Collapse

Chapter 111

The Azure Dragon clan had a deep relationship with the True Dragon clan. If the Azure Dragon clan is destroyed and the True Dragon clan did not intervene, it would confirm their intentions.

Naturally, they would have no reservations anymore. After all, the Soaring Snake clan was a big piece of cake. If they could share it, it would significantly enhance their own foundation and strength.

“But why has the True Dragon clan suddenly declined?” Zhu Yan was extremely puzzled. Millennia ago, the True Dragon clan was still extremely powerful and showed no signs of decline.

Suddenly, they mysteriously retreated and disappeared, no longer active in the outside world. This was very strange, as if they had suddenly suffered a severe blow. This made Zhu Yan extremely confused.

What had happened to cause the once-powerful True Dragon clan to decline? Zhu Yan had a vague feeling that the True Dragon clan was planning something big.

What exactly it was, she did not know. But if the True Dragon clan succeeded, it could overturn the entire Nine Heavens Realm.

“If that’s really the case, we can’t let the True Dragon clan continue! If not, it’s a good opportunity!”

Zhu Yan thought to herself.

“Huang Tuan action was decisive! In just a few hours, he annihilated the Azure Dragon clan!”

“It seems he’s quite certain that the True Dragon clan has problems! It’s probably true!”

“Given Huang Tian’s character, he wouldn’t dare act rashly without full confidence!” The leader of the Golden Crow clan spoke softly.

They were from the same era and understood Huang Tian well. They knew he was someone who would only act if he was confident; if he wasn’t, he wouldn’t act rashly, even if it meant swallowing his pride. Now, Fengtian’s immediate action indicated that he was indeed fully confident.

“Soaring Snake clan, oh Soaring Snake! After following the Undying Phoenix clan for so many years, you chose to follow someone else at the most critical moment!” The Golden Crow clan leader shook his head.

When it came to the depth of relationships, the Soaring Snake clan was definitely a bit closer to the Undying Phoenix clan. Their relationship was almost like that between the Primordial Holy Land and the Pure Yang Holy Land – as close as brothers.

But he hadn’t expected that at such a time, the Soaring Snake clan would betray the Undying Phoenix clan. And at the time when the True Dragon clan was weakest, they stood on the side of the True Dragon clan…

It must be said that the choice of the Soaring Snake clan was truly poor. They often chose the worst side instead of the best one.

“The Azure Dragon clan has actually been annihilated!” Upon learning this news, the Soaring Snake clan leader was extremely surprised. He didn’t know what Huang Tian was trying to do.

Why would he annihilate the Azure Dragon clan for no reason?

There was no conflict between the two.

The next moment, it seemed that he thought of something, and the Soaring Snake clan leader’s face drastically changed: “Could it be that the True Dragon clan has encountered problems?”

“This is Huang Tian’s way of annihilating the Azure Dragon clan, to test the reaction of the True Dragon clan, and also to show the other ancient imperial clans!”

“He’s preparing to annihilate my clan!” Thinking of these possibilities, the Soaring Snake clan leader suddenly panicked. If it had been earlier, he would have had some confidence. Because with the True Dragon clan standing behind him, he could deter the other clans.

“Should the True Dragon Clan face tribulations, losing their prestige and deterrence, their situation will become exceedingly precarious,” the Soaring Snake Clan Leader pondered with a heavy heart, his thoughts in disarray.

“Such a scenario would inevitably lead to alliances between other powers and the Undying Phoenix Clan.” He continued his ruminations.

Once an alliance is formed, even the mighty Soaring Snake Clan will struggle to contend against such united forces. It’s akin to the old saying, ‘one fist can’t contend with four hands,’ much like the situation of the Gu family.

Were the Gu family weak? Not in the least. Even the Primordial Holy Land had to spill blood to confront them. That, however, was under the premise of unilateral action. If multiple powers join forces, the dynamics change drastically, just as when they united against the Primordial Holy Master.

“The mere thought sends shivers down my spine,” the Soaring Snake Clan Leader muttered under his breath. “No, I must contact the True Dragon Clan immediately! And I need to reach out to the other ancient imperial clans as well!”

His mind was a whirlwind of panic, acutely aware that if the True Dragon Clan fell, the Soaring Snake Clan would face a catastrophic downfall. Suddenly, a message arrived that left the Soaring Snake Clan Leader stunned and in utter despair.

It was a message from the True Dragon Clan, instructing them to represent the True Dragon Clan in deterring the Undying Phoenix Clan.

“Cursed fate!” he cursed under his breath, knowing all too well they couldn’t possibly take such a stand. The target of Huang Tian’s eradication was none other than their clan.

Now, to represent the True Dragon Clan was akin to announcing to the world the True Dragon Clan’s incapacity to act, thereby severely undermining their own prestige.

“This will obliterate the prestige the True Dragon Clan has built over the years,” he lamented with regret. “We should never have sided with the True Dragon Clan!” The Soaring Snake Clan was filled with resentment.

Without the support of the True Dragon Clan, they were now exposed to the full brunt of the Undying Phoenix Clan and the other ancient imperial clans’ onslaught.

“What to do?” the Soaring Snake Clan Leader paced back and forth anxiously, desperately searching for a way to break the impasse. But the more he thought, the more hopeless he felt. There seemed to be no way out of this predicament.

With the Azure Dragon Clan annihilated and the True Dragon Clan hidden, Huang Tian’s forces were growing stronger, not just him alone.

Conversely, his side’s power was waning. Even the races that were once allies would likely choose to observe from the sidelines, not daring to get involved. Worse still, they might even turn into executioners for the other side.

In a sense, the Soaring Snake Clan was backed into a corner with no room for maneuver. The only option left was to return to the Undying Phoenix Clan’s fold, an impossible scenario.

“I may have no choice but to leave alone!” With this thought, the Soaring Snake Clan Leader’s eyes glinted with determination.

As long as he survived, the annihilation of the Soaring Snake Clan was of no consequence to him, especially since his son had already perished at the hands of Jiang Chen.

As the Soaring Snake Clan Leader prepared to make his move, unexpectedly, the high-ranking members of the Soaring Snake Clan had already gathered.

At the same time, he noticed the space around him was completely sealed, with a golden phoenix soaring in the void – the Emperor weapon of the Undying Phoenix Clan.

Three days passed in the blink of an eye. Since the annihilation of the Azure Dragon Clan, there had been no word from the True Dragon Clan, as if they had vanished from this world.

Not a single member of the True Dragon Clan was seen in the Nine Heavens Realm, leading to rampant speculation about their whereabouts over the millennia.

Soon, the news of the True Dragon Clan’s decline spread throughout the Nine Heavens Realm. On the same day, the four great ancient imperial clans joined forces, and their Emperor weapons hung in the void, enveloping the entire Soaring Snake Clan!
