Chapter 701: Acting
Chapter 701: Acting
Now it was time for Zhong Feng to showcase his acting skills.
He acted as if he had a belly full of fire, unleashing a torrent of scathing insults at the Third Elder hovering in the sky.
During this tirade, another Seventh-Rank Red Dragon Elder arrived. This Red Dragon Elder, along with the Third White Dragon Elder, were the only two Seventh-Rank Dragons left to guard Dragon Island. (The others had all gone to Earth.)
Zhong Feng didn’t hold back, including the Red Dragon Elder in his verbal onslaught.
The two Dragon Elders, despite being on the receiving end of Zhong Feng's scolding, did not get angry. His words hit a very sensitive nerve.
Zhong Feng was right; Dragon Island was far too small!
Dragon Island covered an area of about 70,000 square kilometers (roughly the size of two Hainan Islands). However, compared to the vast 850 million square kilometers of land on Skrul, this area was insignificant.
The Dragon Clan had one Eighth-Rank Divine Dragon and twelve Seventh-Rank Legendary Dragons, yet they only controlled this tiny territory. Honestly, it was quite embarrassing.
To save face, the Third Elder tried to defend himself, “The main reason we haven’t expanded is due to reproductive issues. Our clan’s ability to reproduce is becoming increasingly difficult… Besides, the treaty we signed with the Skrulians benefits both sides…”
“Benefits both sides?” Zhong Feng interrupted him immediately. “So, you’re telling me that after signing the treaty, the Skrulians won’t be riding on your backs?”
“Um…”
“Are you sure it’s an equal treaty and not the Skrulians using you as mounts and lackeys?”
“Um…”
“Our Dragon Clan controls tens of thousands of habitable star systems, and all the beings in those systems are our servants. Do we not have reproductive issues? Shouldn’t you be reflecting on this more deeply?…”
Zhong Feng was now fully immersed in his role, delivering another scathing tirade at the two Dragon Elders.
The two Dragon Elders, like students who had committed a grave mistake, landed in the arena, heads lowered and wings drooping, too afraid to speak.
Zhong Feng's aura grew stronger.
This was exactly the effect he wanted to achieve.
Zhong Feng was portraying a “sorrowful and angry” image of an alien dragon. The more furious and disappointed he appeared, the more likely the Skrul Dragon Clan would believe him and his words.
Conversely, if he showed any signs of weakness, hesitation, or reluctance to speak loudly, the Dragon Elders would be more likely to doubt his identity.
To avoid any slip-ups, Zhong Feng was giving it his all.
...
Sure enough, the Dragon Elders and the surrounding dragons had no doubts.
After being scolded, they were even more convinced that Zhong Feng was from the Holy Dragon Star.
After all, no one in their entire clan would dare to unleash such a verbal assault on Seventh-Rank Dragon Elders.
Furthermore, Zhong Feng had indeed demonstrated superior combat skills, leaving no room for doubt about his “mainline dragon” identity.
When Zhong Feng’s tirade finally came to a halt, the Third Elder heaved a sigh of relief and said respectfully, “We apologize; it is indeed a problem within our clan, and we are currently unable to resolve it.
However, let’s leave this place. It’s not appropriate to discuss such matters here.
Regardless, since you have come to our Dragon Clan with such an identity, you will always be our most honored friend!”
Daniel had been crouching beside Zhong Feng, too afraid to speak during the scolding.
After all, he was terrified of his father being scolded like this, and his father hadn’t even shown a hint of anger.
If his father didn’t get angry, how could he dare to show any anger?
Now, hearing his father invite the alien dragon to leave, Daniel stepped forward and offered, “Father, all of this is thanks to me! If it weren’t for me, we would have almost certainly missed the fact that he is an alien dragon.”
“Shut up!” the Third Elder snapped at his son.
Indeed, without Daniel, they would not have discovered Zhong Feng's true identity. However, Daniel's hot-headed behavior of challenging everyone to duels had definitely offended Zhong Feng. Otherwise, why would Zhong Feng have been so rude just now? Still, the Third Elder didn't want to lash out at his foolish son at this moment. He turned and flew ahead, leading the way while politely saying to Zhong Feng, "Please, follow me."
Zhong Feng gave him the respect and followed him out of the arena.
...
Afterward, Zhong Feng was treated with the highest honors on Dragon Island.
The two to three thousand dragons living on the island, along with their families, came to welcome (or rather, gawk at) him. The bigwigs of the dragon race also appeared to greet him warmly and presented him with some local specialties as gifts.
The next morning, one of the five Great Dragon Kings, the Black Dragon King, returned to the island to welcome this guest from another planet.
In the presence of these leaders, Zhong Feng fully immersed himself in his role, acting as if he were truly a "Mainline Dragon." He critiqued the current state of the Skrul Dragon race and displayed a sense of superiority in many aspects.
These displays of superiority successfully reinforced the Skrul Dragons' belief in his identity.
Princess Coco also played a significant role in this. She actively promoted Zhong Feng, dispelling any doubts among the dragons, and arranged for him to have several friendly matches with the Black Dragon Clan's strongest warriors. Zhong Feng then taught some practical attack techniques (skills) to the Black Dragon Clan.
Thanks to the combined efforts of Zhong Feng and Princess Coco, Zhong Feng's identity remained intact, and everyone firmly believed in his story.
...
Zhong Feng stayed on Dragon Island for a full three days.
During this time, he made every effort to build good relations with the dragons, teaching the Black Dragon Clan attack techniques and visiting the island's powerful dragons.
The dragons were also very courteous to Zhong Feng, always treating him with the highest honors while subtly inquiring about the situation in the Mainline Dragon realm.
Zhong Feng didn't hold back, telling them a completely fabricated story about the Mainline Dragon realm.
Throughout, he never revealed any flaws, so his cover remained unbroken.
...
On the second night, Zhong Feng found an opportunity to slip away unnoticed and made his way to the White Dragon Queen's lair to complete his transaction with Princess Coco.
This time, he brought six bottles of [Master-level Life Recovery Elixir] and received 30 tons of gold and over a hundred large barrels of spiritual energy in return.
Both parties were very satisfied with the trade and agreed on what they would exchange next time.
Besides trading with Coco, Zhong Feng also secretly searched for the dragons possessed by Senior Tao Qian and Senior Jun Shiyi.
To his surprise, he actually found them!
On the third day, in a desolate area of Dragon Island, Zhong Feng and the two seniors agreed to meet.
At 3 PM, Zhong Feng arrived at the meeting spot on time, and the two seniors did not stand him up, appearing in the sky at the agreed location.
The two seniors still did not know Zhong Feng's true identity and assumed, like the other dragons, that he was a dragon from another planet.
They were a bit puzzled by Zhong Feng's request to meet them privately, but they accepted his invitation and showed up.
In the desolate area,
Without waiting for the seniors to land, Zhong Feng smiled and transmitted his voice to them, "Senior Tao, Senior Jun Shiyi, are the two of you getting along well here?"
