The Chaos Dragon Prince

"Of course, we wouldn't want to disturb your Majesty. We wish you success in your endeavors." After receiving Shi Wei's contact ring, both Xun Kung and Qiu Lan deeply bowed. 

Xun Kung exterior was diginfed and calm. But internally, who couldn't be more happier! After all, he managed to gain the means to directly contact the unfathomable Ancient Dragon Empress!

Anyone across the entire Thunderous Collision could only dream of having such honor. This was the equivalent of having another lifeline. Even when he returns to his Sect, Xun Kung's own position will considerably elevate.

Although, he was still fraught with curiosity over Cain's situation. He had an inkling to ask just what was going but decided against it. 

The Ancient Dragon Empress would've already told him if she wanted him to know.

As soon as Xun Kung and Qiu Lan finished bowing, both Sword Masters didn't waste a second more, quickly leaving the main grand hall. 

For a short moment, Shi Wei didn't do anything but quietly watch them leave.

It wasn't until the Sword Masters was far away enough that Shi Wei suddenly snapped her attention towards her left, narrowing her gaze on a specific spot. 

Seconds passed, and still zero movements.

Soon enough, Shi Wei curled her brows as her expression considerably dropped. She didn't stimulate even an idiota of power. And yet, just from her slight dip in expression, it was like the whole divine atmosphere plunged to freezing degrees!

If anyone from the Heaven Sky Planet were to experience this atmosphere, their Soul's Core would've shattered to nothingness, instantly killing them on the spot.

This was the pure Draconic Might slumbering all throughout Shi Wei's veins!

And as this Draconic Might engulfed the grand hall, distortions in space started to occur.

Black lines began to ripple through the air as if reality itself was breaking apart. Even though the space in God Galaxies is incomparably stable and tough, a high-level expert could easily tear a hole in it.

Proven as the one currently hiding in a space distortion channel was struggling to stay stable under Shi Wei's Draconic Might. 

"Hmph. Still want to struggle against me?"

Shi Wei's ice-cold voice seemed to infuse into space itself, causing her own slight black lines to ripple through the air. 

"Dilong quit messing around. No matter how much you train, you will naturally be inferior to me."

An indifferent smile, full of cold malice, graced Shi Wei's lips. If someone like Xun Kung were to see this smile, goosebumps would've taken the whole of his entire body.

'Chiii~!' 

And at Shi Wei's called out, a large hole tore open space. Out from the space gap, a tall, handsome man slowly strolled. 

At his appearance, it was like time itself came to a standstill.

Every fiber of this man's being radiated with supreme power that no mortal can even begin to fathom. His abyss-like black eyes seemed to contain endless profound truths as a hypnotic black energy glow shimmered from the depths of his pupils. 

His face seemed divinely perfect, completely like he experienced nirvana several times. He wore an elegantly designed black robe that was crafted from the finest of divine energy. And his long black hair that flowed down to his waist perfectly accentuated his practically godly charm. 

This man's whole presence carried the authentic Aura of a God-Emperor.

All under him have absolutely no choice but to obey! 

Even against the older supreme Elders of the Royal Family, they all still need to pay respect to the current Dragon Emperor, Huang Dilong!

However, at this moment, the mighty Dragon Emperor Huang Dilong actually had an incredibly subdue appearance. 

When facing Shi Wei, his eyes only contained respect. He didn't dare to show anything else, at least not on the surface. 

Huang Dilong simply gave a curt nod, asking, "Elder Wei. You truly become more unfathomable every time I see you. And I mean no harm for my spying. I simply trying to understand some things…"

"Oh? Just what kind of things?" Shi Wei's sweet voice carried a noticeable dangerous edge. 

An edge that Huang Dilong didn't dare try to provoke. He calmed his rising mental state and said, "You see…I still can't quite figure what is Elder Wei and Elder Wulong's goal is with this marriage contract. Young Cain is…well, wouldn't this just end badly for him?"

Shi Wei's indifferently cold smile didn't twitch at all. "You will see when the time has finally come. Now then, tell me what else is on your mind. I can see it from your eyes."

For a few moments, Huang Dilong didn't reply. He wasn't surprised at all that Shi Wei could read him. But more so felt a slight heavy pressure on his mind as he recalled a critical topic.

When comparing this critical topic to this marriage contract, it inspired odd feelings within Huang Dilong's mind. He couldn't shake the feeling that this was all for naught. 

Compared to those Sword Masters, he didn't have blind faith in Shi Wei's ability. Still, Huang Dilong didn't dare to speak his disrespectful thoughts. 

He only said, "I know you don't need a reminder, but the Heavenly Banquet is starting far earlier than any other previous year. We all need to have our own representatives, and our choice has to be absolutely perfect."

"Oh, it is starting earlier, right?" Shi Wei only gave a slight nod, seeming as if she didn't care at all. 

Although she still continues to ask, "Have they told you yet if the God Decree Martial Meeting officially decided on a new date?"

Huang Dilong's mood considerably worsen. "Indeed they have. Compared to the dozens of years we had before to prepare, now the time frame almost seems like night and day. Last year, our results were average at best. And this year, I'm not sure if we can improve. During these last dozens of years, the resurgence of genius has crazily surged. It's almost to an outrageous degree how freakish these new waves of geniuses are. And as for our geniuses…"

As Huang Dilong trailed off, Shi Wei curled her brows. While she may not appear around others often or at all, she is keenly aware of everything occurring within the main Royal Family.

Her smile only dipped just a bit as she said, "Are you insinuating that I put my efforts into raising one of my younglings? Do you truly believe our youngling's talent is this lacking?"

"Putting it bluntly…well, I can't help but worry." Huang Dilong slowly shook his head. "In terms of Perception abilities, Divine Law comprehension, cultivation manual comprehension, and other Profound Traits, even you can see we are a bit lacking. The Crown Prince is our highest hope, but he can only improve so much in such little time."

Despite having reigning supreme in their realm, Huang Dilong knows their Royal Family isn't as domineering as it seems. It could be said it's good enough that they managed to achieve their current position with a far shorter history than other Middle Realms.

But engraved deep within every Royal Dragon's very bloodstreams was the greed for more. 

The greed to push past their current status and shoot high into the stars, taking everything for themselves!

To achieve such fantastical dreams like that, their young talents play the most critical roles. With an incredibly talented genius or geniuses, they will be able to shift the entirety of their Royal Family for the better!

And to reach that level of achievement, they need to actually foster a promising young genius that can rise above all ranks. Because of the deep resources and divine-quality means, such a thing seemed easy on paper.

But, to truly gain and foster a peak divine genius to their full potential is harder than ascending to the Heavens! 

So many various factors go in when determining one's Martial Talent.

Factors that even Huang Dilong's Royal Family truly doesn't have at this moment. With his pride and obsession on the line, Huang Dilong naturally turned towards Shi Wei so she could spread her guidance. 

However, to his dismay, Shi Wei only stayed intently aware of Cain and Kali. Even now, she hasn't made any effort to train the top-ranking geniuses in their Royal Family.

Their Crown Prince, whose Martial Talent is the greatest out of thousands of years, will only get ignored by Shi Wei. 

And despite Shi Wei's unwillingness, there wasn't anything that could be done about it.

The strongest Ancient Dragon Emperor is her husband and usually listens to every word she says. Even if the Ancient Dragon Emperor were to put his foot down, if Shi Wei is stubborn enough, nobody can move her mind.

Because of this, Huang Dilong just had the faintest of hope that Shi Wei would finally change her mind this year. 

The rapidly approaching event of the God Decree Martial Meeting is far too strange to ignore. Furthermore, it caused their annual Heavenly Banquet tradition to come far faster than before. Both factors should be enough to affect any unfathomable expert's mind.

But contrary to Huang Dilon's faint expectations, Shi Wei still didn't look worried. She did stay silent for a few moments before eventually saying, "The degree of Martial Cultivation these days… it's becoming a bit muddled. You and practically everyone else here are far too focused on the results. Although…I can't necessarily blame you all. This was how we rose so high. In any case, you know my answer still remains the same. Their Martial Hearts are not firm enough to be truly trained."

"Firm enough Martial Heart…" Huang Dilong furrowed his brows. "Just, what do you mean by that? In terms of perseverance, naturally, every single one of us is incredibly high. We have innate advantages putting us over even Heavenly Bloodline Humans. Moreover, our talents don't stay cooped here. They all venture on various adventures, whetting themselves on the Martial Road. Not a single one of them hasn't sharpened themselves."

"Mn… I'm fully aware of all of that. And truthfully speaking, you're not even wrong at all. Venturing to lucky chances, sharpening themselves, skirting the edges of death, it is all indeed parts of the Martial Road. However, they and even you haven't taken a critical threshold step. You haven't yet come upon a truth that will truly broaden your views. Reaching this threshold step, you may have a chance to reach my level."

As Shi Wei slowly explained, Huang Dilong fell into silence. This honestly wasn't the first time he heard this advice from her. It was told to him several times, in fact. Just each time had different variations.

However, no matter how hard he tried to understand the mysterious truths Shi Wei explained, it all was lost on Huang Dilong. At his mental state level, he believed there wasn't much he couldn't understand.

The only things that would be are Laws and cultivation manuals far stronger than he is now. 

But even with this, whatever Shi Wei wanted as an answer seemed utterly impossible to grasp! And if even he couldn't grasp this, there was no need to mention the younger generation. 

Taking a calming breath, Huang Dilong couldn't help but try and ask, "Just, is it really not possible for you to give me or anyone else a hint on the answer you want us to seek? With actual proper instructions, I'm sure we can greatly grow."

Instead of answering, Shi Wei turned around and began slowly walking around. Without turning back, she left with these parting words, "Even if I were to give a hint, you wouldn't necessarily be able to understand it. Moreover, if you do manage to perceive it, your achievement would be far lower than if you managed to naturally perceive the answer. As for our young geniuses, all I have to say is, just wait and see. Even you will be left recoiling in awe."

As her words reverberated in Huang Dilong's mind, Shi Wei had already left. 

Certainly, if this wasn't anyone else boldly claiming he would recoil in shock, he wouldn't regard their statements at all.

But someone like Shi Wei so confidently stating it…Huang Dilong couldn't suppress an inevitable growing curiosity about the future.
