Soul Land IV (Douluo Dalu) : Ultimate Fighting - Chapter 1471: Goddaughter
Chapter 1471: Chapter 1471: Goddaughter
Although the position is just at the very edge, they all understand that this is a place only Dragon Knights can sit, and being able to also be in this room is already a full testament of their status.
At this moment, a flash of light appeared and a figure materialized out of thin air, whom Lan Xuanyu and Bai Xiuxiu recognized as Holy Light Dragon Knight Huang Liangwei.
“Lord Holy Light.” Lan Xuanyu and Bai Xiuxiu hastily saluted.
Seeing “them,” Huang Liangwei couldn’t help but laugh heartily, saying, “Lately, the atmosphere has been very tense every day, it’s finally something to relax a bit. We’re all family here, no need to be formal.”
In the Dragon Clan, to gain respect, one must rely on their own strength. Besides personal strength, Lan Xuanyu’s recent performance at the Sky Dragon Assembly has been increasingly recognized by the Dragon Knights.
The standard for Dragon Knights is primarily combat power and strength, specifically Super God-level powerhouses. But they aren’t all versed in wisdom or command. When someone has better ideas, they naturally have much less to worry about. Moreover, many have high regard for Lan.
“Lan! Have you thought about what your future Dragon Knight title will be?” Huang Liangwei asked with a laugh.
Lan Xuanyu was taken aback for a moment, shook his head, and said, “I’m still far from it.”
Huang Liangwei smiled slightly, saying, “Far or not, can we not see it? With your bloodline, achieving Dragon Knight status in the future is almost inevitable. You can start considering it. Haha. The title of the Golden Dragon Princess is already unsuitable for you.”
Lan Xuanyu knew he was joking with him and remained silent, just smiling. But in his heart, he secretly thought, what Dragon Knight, I want to be called Dragon God, what do you think?
Figures began to appear in the room, transmitting a series of Dragon Knights.
Lan Xuanyu and Bai Xiuxiu, having the lowest status, simply did not sit down to avoid standing up repeatedly and greeted each Dragon Knight.
Eighteen Dragon Knights, soon more than a dozen arrived, even more complete than at the Sky Dragon Assembly.
Lan Xuanyu had heard from Luo Lan that some Dragon Knights don’t attend the Sky Dragon Assembly not because they don’t have time, but because they don’t want to think. These types simply follow whatever the assembly decides. But such Dragon Knights should not be underestimated, often being exceedingly strong in combat and representatives of a warlike nature.
The dozen or so Dragon Knights’ arrival quickly stirred up the room. After Lan Xuanyu and Bai Xiuxiu greeted everyone, they certainly did not put on airs, being very polite to them. However, the Dragon Knights were somewhat curious as well, as normally, the room shouldn’t allow anyone besides Dragon Knights inside. This required special permission from the Sky Dragon Leader, even the Secondary Leader Zhong Zhichang couldn’t decide this.
At this moment, a silver flash occurred, and Dawn Dragon Knight Zhong Zhichang and Moke Dragon Knight Luo Lan arrived.
“Greetings, Secondary Seat, greetings, Lord Luo Lan.” Lan Xuanyu and Bai Xiuxiu naturally hurriedly saluted.
Seeing “them,” Zhong Zhichang and Luo Lan were apparently a bit surprised, Luo Lan straightforwardly said, “You’re here too? Special permission from the Leader?”
Lan Xuanyu said, “We don’t know! It’s the Sky Dragon Assembly staff who provided the teleport coordinates, and we ended up here. It seems we’re allowed to sit on the side.”
Zhong Zhichang’s eyes flickered briefly and said, “Then just sit here. Participating in the auction is also quite good.”
“Yes.” Lan Xuanyu respectfully answered. Although he’s a human undercover, he had a good impression of Zhong Zhichang; this Dawn Dragon Knight has always taken care of them, even inviting Hou Dingzhong to create Artifact-level Divine Dragon Armor for them. He’s essentially their support in the Dragon Clan now.
The staff hurried over, guiding Zhong Zhichang and Luo Lan to their seats.
As the two took their seats, Luo Lan couldn’t help but show a surprised expression, while Zhong Zhichang had no reaction. Luo Lan, being ranked sixth, naturally sat more to the side, but Zhong Zhichang was not seated at the very center either. As he seated, there were two vacant seats in the center, meaning that Zhong Zhichang, as the Secondary Dragon Leader, was assigned the third position.
The Dragon Knights also noticed this, Dark Devil Dragon Knight Luo Yayuan said, “Is the Sky Horse Sect Leader coming over here?”
Luo Lan puzzledly said, “But aren’t there still several vacant seats?” On the other side of Zhong Zhichang, near the center, there indeed were several empty seats.
At this time, the low dragon roar suddenly became clearer, and the originally noisy sound outside turned quiet instead.
Silver light flickered, and five figures appeared simultaneously in the room, led by none other than the current Sky Dragon Leader Jiang Weiqiang.
His arrival naturally made all Dragon Knights stand immediately, but then, these Dragon Knights looked at Jiang Weiqiang respectfully supporting that person with shock on their faces.
A bright red dress, exceptionally beautiful features, crimson hair cascading down the back. The temperament of an upper-class person is unmistakable. Especially in contrast to the Sky Dragon Leader, it amplified her prestige.
They naturally had seen this person, but the last time was over a thousand years ago.
If it wasn’t for the presence of the Sky Dragon Leader beside her, they wouldn’t necessarily recognize her at first glance.
“Greetings, Leader, greetings, Divine Fire Dragon Knight Lord.” The Dragon Knights hurriedly saluted.
The one Jiang Weiqiang was supporting was naturally Divine Fire Dragon Knight Zhang Chujia.
Accompanying them, naturally the other three of the Four Ancestors.
Seeing Zhang Chujia, the Dragon Knights were all filled with awe, as who wouldn’t know this was once the most beautiful lady and a true leader of the previous generation in the Dragon Clan! But they never imagined Zhang Chujia would reappear in such splendor. She is over five thousand years old, yet shows no sign of being at the end of her life!
Lan Xuanyu and Bai Xiuxiu were also shocked, Bai Xiuxiu clearly guessed who she was, while Lan Xuanyu was stunned by Zhang Chujia’s status within the Dragon Clan, exceeding his expectations. He didn’t know she was the mother of the Sky Dragon Leader, but Jiang Weiqiang’s demeanor showed him just how esteemed Zhang Chujia is.
“Divine Fire Dragon Knight Lord,” Zhong Zhichang as the Secondary Seat had already stepped forward at this moment, respectfully supporting Zhang Chujia’s other hand.
Zhang Chujia smiled and said, “Zhichang! Long time no see. I always hear your mentor praising you, so much that my ears are about to grow calluses. Don’t call me Divine Fire Dragon Knight, just call me Aunt. I’ve long since ceased being a Dragon Knight.”
The Dragon Knights saluted again. To her, they felt genuine reverence.
With Zhang Chujia supported by the Sky Dragon Leader and Zhong Zhichang, she arrived at the central main seat and sat down with Jiang Weiqiang. But her gaze soon fell on Lan Xuanyu, her smile brightened, and she beckoned to Lan Xuanyu.
Lan Xuanyu quickly stepped forward, came before Zhang Chujia, and bowed deeply, “Elder Zhang.”
Zhang Chujia smiled, “How is it? How’s your recovery?”
Lan Xuanyu said, “No real issues. Just feeling a bit weak.”
Zhang Chujia reached out her hand, Lan Xuanyu could only extend his hand for her to grasp. Zhang Chujia looked towards Jiang Weiqiang and the other Dragon Knights, saying, “I’m telling you, Lan is going to be my goddaughter from now on, none of you can bully her, otherwise, though my old bones don’t have many years left, I won’t spare you. Understand? Weiqiang, you included.”
This statement left everyone astonished.
