Deities: Starting From Goblins Chapter 1313

Chapter 1313: Chapter 720 True Dragon_2 Chapter 1313: Chapter 720 True Dragon_2 “Could it be that you've made a mistake?” the man finally couldn't help speaking, his voice trembling slightly with skepticism, “This time when I was wandering outside, I also brought back someone who had escaped from the Ancient Barrier. He is a Flood Dragon with great strength, wanting to seek refuge with our Demon Race, and he has even experienced a great upheaval among the Human race!”

Upon hearing this, the City Lord's eyebrows slightly furrowed, and a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes. He knew very little about this Lord Dragon, only that his strength was unfathomable and his origin mysterious. Now, the man suddenly mentioned that he too had brought back someone who had escaped from the Ancient Barrier, which piqued his interest.

“Oh? Tell me more, what is the situation with this Flood Dragon?” The City Lord leaned forward slightly, clearly very interested in the topic.

Seeing this, the man was delighted, knowing he had caught the City Lord's attention. He took a deep breath and began to recount his encounter during his travels: “That day, as I was passing through a desolate valley, I suddenly felt a powerful aura. Following the aura, I saw a huge Flood Dragon being attacked by a group of Human cultivators. Even though the Flood Dragon was powerful, he seemed to have been severely injured and was trapped by the Human's magical treasures. I intervened and drove off those Human cultivators. In gratitude, the Flood Dragon then revealed that he had escaped from the Ancient Barrier and wanted to seek refuge with our Demon Race for protection.”

After listening, the City Lord fell silent for a moment, his eyes gleaming with contemplative light. He was filled with curiosity and desire for everything about the Ancient Barrier, and now, not only was there the mysterious existence of Lord Dragon, but also the Flood Dragon brought back by the man… All of this seemed to be hinting at something.

“Hmm, you did well,” the City Lord finally spoke, his voice carrying a hint of approval, “This Flood Dragon may be of use to us. As for Lord Dragon… since he has come out from the Ancient Barrier, then his strength and treasures are surely needed by our Demon Race. You must show him sufficient respect and loyalty, and you must not harbor any ulterior motives. Do you understand?”

The man shivered inwardly and quickly nodded in agreement. He knew that the City Lord's words were indisputable. And he himself would play an important role in this conflict concerning the Ancient Barrier, Lord Dragon, and the Flood Dragon.

In the deep and dark palace of the Demon Race, the City Lord and the man were conversing in low voices, both of their gazes flickering with curiosity and desire for the unknown. The man suggested, “Why not meet this Flood Dragon and see if we can get some information out of him. He may know more about the Ancient Barrier and could possibly bring us unexpected gains.”

Upon hearing this, a glint flashed in the City Lord's eyes, fully aware of the value of this suggestion. So, he nodded and said in a deep voice, “You first take me to see this Flood Dragon, and I'll assess the situation!” With that, the two left the palace together, embarking on their journey to the location of the Flood Dragon.

After some twists and turns, they finally arrived at the hidden cave where the Flood Dragon was housed. Inside the cave, the Flood Dragon lay curled up with his massive body, seemingly calm, but the powerful aura that had been passed down from Ancient Times was impossible to ignore.

The City Lord carefully observed the Flood Dragon, inwardly marveling. He was indeed as the man had described, possessing no simple strength, exuding an ancient and mysterious aura all over, undoubtedly a remnant from Ancient Times. However, when he noticed the faint mark of a Contract on the Flood Dragon's body, his eyebrows slightly furrowed.

“You, serving as someone else's mount, why would you think to come and seek refuge? Aren't you afraid your Ancient Master might claim you back?” The City Lord's voice carried a hint of skepticism, eager to uncover the secrets hidden behind this Flood Dragon.

Flood Dragon heard the words and slightly lifted his head, his eyes flashing with a complex emotion. He slowly spoke, “Actually, it was my Owner who wanted me to come to the Demon Race to cultivate with you for a while. My Owner has sustained serious injuries and is currently in secluded cultivation, unable to attend to me. And since you all are somewhat kin from the old days, I thought you wouldn't refuse my request.”

Upon hearing this, the City Lord suddenly realized. He recalled that the Demon Race and the Flood Dragon race indeed shared some ancient blood ties, which, although now distant, still existed. He glanced at the man, noticing a contemplative expression on his face.

“Well, what you say is true, we indeed share some relations,” the City Lord slowly said, his tone laced with nostalgia, “Since your Owner has such intentions, we can't properly refuse. However, during this time, you must follow the rules of the Demon Race and must not cause any unnecessary trouble.”

Flood Dragon hurriedly nodded in agreement. He was well aware of his current situation and understood that only by leveraging the power of the Demon Race could he grow faster, to better assist his Owner later. Thus, a mysterious connection involving the Ancient Barrier, Flood Dragon, and the Demon Race quietly began to unfold. And the City Lord and the man, in this connection, gradually unveiled more about the Ancient Times' mysterious veil.

In a dark and secretive corner of the palace, the City Lord and the man stood quietly before Flood Dragon, their eyes filled with scrutiny and curiosity toward this being from the Ancient Times. Flood Dragon lay on the floor, his massive body looking even more imposing under the dim lighting, while his deep eyes twinkled with wisdom and steadiness.

“This Flood Dragon indeed knows how to speak and show manners,” the City Lord inwardly praised, feeling very satisfied with Flood Dragon's demeanor. Flood Dragon seemed to sense the City Lord's goodwill, slightly lifting his head and making eye contact, a flash of gratitude in his eyes.

After a moment of silence, Flood Dragon seemed to remember something and slowly began to speak, “Since Lord City Lord is so concerned about the situation in the Ancient Barrier, I will tell you about it. Actually, a long time ago, the Barrier was subjected to a mysterious tremor so intense that even we living within it felt an unprecedented panic. Later, we discovered a small breach in the Barrier, although not large, it was enough for some powerful beings to escape.”

The City Lord was shaken upon hearing this. He hadn't expected such events to occur within the Ancient Barrier, and Flood Dragon's words also reminded him of the Lord Dragon mentioned earlier by the man who had escaped from the Barrier. He looked incredulously at Flood Dragon and asked, “Are you saying there are others like you who escaped from the Barrier? Is that really true?”

Flood Dragon nodded, his tone carrying a hint of certainty, “Yes, after that significant disturbance, the Barrier indeed had some problems. Although I don't know exactly how many escaped, there were definitely more than just me. However… this Lord who escaped possesses extraordinary abilities; I am unaware of his level of existence.”

The City Lord took a deep breath, trying to calm his inner turmoil. He slowly spoke with a weighty tone, “If that's the case, then things have become complex. Every being from the Ancient Barrier possesses great power. This Lord who escaped, whether a friend or foe, significantly impacts our Demon Race.”

At this point, the City Lord paused, glanced at the man, then turned back to look at Flood Dragon and continued, “However, since you have already come to our Demon Race, you are a guest of our race. I hope you can tell us in detail what you saw and heard in the Ancient Barrier, including the circumstances of the Lord who escaped. This way, we can better prepare for any challenges that might arise.”
