Chapter 728: First Arrival in Lion Kingdom! Explosion!
Chapter 728: First Arrival in Lion Kingdom! Explosion!
Fog enveloped the city, shrouding the ancient metropolis in a veil of mystery and age.
In the low sky, one could see a colossal golden lion statue, over a kilometer tall, lying at the heart of the city like a conqueror of the vast wilderness. It dominated the city, forcing all who arrived to submit to its presence.
This was the capital of Lion Kingdom, the core of the most powerful Beast Tamer nation in the Western Continent.
Sufen was visiting for the first time. She glanced at the massive golden lion and pursed her lips.
However, she had done her homework. The golden lion statue was the royal Beast Pet of Lion Kingdom, the Sacred Gold Lion, a peak Holy Spirit Level Beast Pet with rare attributes of gold and light.
Moreover, the upper echelons of Lion Kingdom possessed many methods for breeding and advancing high-level lion-type Beast Pets to Emperor Rank and Holy Spirit Level, much like the dragons of Dragon Kingdom.
However, there was a fundamental difference. The high-level lion Beast Pets in Lion Kingdom could be obtained by civilians, though it was risky if discovered. In contrast, the dragons of Dragon Kingdom had unique channels and specialized breeding facilities, making each dragon traceable and giving them a unique and iconic status.
In Dragon Kingdom, every dragon’s origin could be traced, bestowing unparalleled honor and identity to Beast Tamers. This was something other Beast Tamer nations struggled to match.
Nevertheless, the combat power of Lion Kingdom’s Sacred Gold Lion was undeniable, serving as a fitting representative of the royal family. The royal family’s rule was also firmly established, with a limited number of members, ensuring a strong grip on power.
Of course, the actual impact of the royal family on a Beast Tamer nation could be debated.
The plane landed, and a waiting specialist approached. Although the Legend of the Holy Dragon was not present, there were other significant figures:
A tall, blond man with piercing blue eyes, around thirty years old, whom Sufen recognized as the Lion Kingdom’s Crown Prince, Andrewsen. He had already reached Holy Spirit Level in his forties, and while there were a dozen Crown Princes in the royal family, it was unknown who would ultimately succeed.
Additionally, a familiar face was present: Olivia Conner, the undoubted first in the cultivation world of Lion Kingdom, the head of the Royal Grand Library, and a former visitor to the Core of Ten Thousand Spirits.
Alongside them were numerous Beast Tamer guards, each at Emperor Rank. The reception was indeed impressive.
Sufen and Feng Lao, walking at the forefront, were the center of attention. As Sufen stepped off the plane, the Crown Prince Andrewsen, who could have been her father’s age, lit up and hurried over to shake her hand.
"Su Cultivator, it’s an honor to finally meet you. I’ve heard so much about you and am a big fan!"
Sufen smiled at his fluent Dragon Kingdom language. "Thank you. I didn’t expect you to come, Your Highness, especially at this time."
Her candidness made Feng Lao and Olivia, who were also exchanging pleasantries, slightly taken aback. Crown Prince Andrewsen’s expression became a bit awkward.
No one was foolish; they understood the underlying meaning of Sufen’s words. In a recent interview, the legendary Grandmaster Charles had openly expressed his hatred for Sufen.
Despite the long-standing tensions between Dragon Kingdom and Eagle Kingdom, such direct conflict was still unimaginable. No one would risk offending Charles, a powerful Grandmaster, to get close to Sufen, who, though promising, was still too young.
So, Andrewsen’s willingness to come and be so friendly was unexpected.
Andrewsen narrowed his eyes and chuckled. "Su Cultivator, you flatter me. This is the Cultivator Ceremony, a grand event for the entire Blue Star. I represent Lion Kingdom, not just myself."
Sufen’s respect for the Crown Prince grew. Despite Lion Kingdom’s recent decline and the Connor family’s desire to defect, it still had a solid foundation.
However, after this ceremony, whether this friendliness would continue was uncertain. Lion Kingdom might view Dragon Kingdom as its primary adversary.
Of course, politics were complex. The Legend of the Holy Dragon had his reasons for making this decision.
Sufen merely smiled and followed Andrewsen into the specially prepared vehicle. Three vehicles had arrived, as the Dragon Kingdom delegation, including Cultivators and Beast Tamer guards, numbered over ten and couldn’t fit into one car.
Before getting into her car, Sufen silently summoned Feifei. Feifei’s form was unique; even Legendary beings might struggle to detect it. As a Mechgod Core, Feifei’s sensitivity to machines was unparalleled.
After receiving Feifei’s confirmation, Sufen acted as if nothing was amiss and got into the car, secretly giving Feifei a special command. In a foreign land, caution was essential.
Moreover, her opponent was no ordinary Holy Spirit Level being. Who knew what schemes the awakened Charles had in store for her?
This ceremony in Lion Kingdom was a significant test for her. However, passive waiting wasn’t her style; proactive action was.
In the car, Andrewsen introduced Lion Kingdom and its interesting Beast Pets, and Sufen feigned great curiosity, which she genuinely felt.
After ten minutes of driving, a sudden burst of energy erupted.
The next moment, a thunderous explosion ripped through the car from below!
'Boom!'
The ground trembled from the force of the blast.
