He could sense that the three of them, including Nangong Yijian, were all quite young. Even Nangong Yijian, the oldest among them, was probably much younger than him.

However, he could sense a sense of threat from Nangong Yijian and the other two.

Clearly, all three of them are extremely powerful.

Such powerful young experts, who are considered true prodigies in their Eastern Heavenly Dynasty, are merely Li Jing's guards and maids.

hiss!

Duanmu Yuan couldn't help but gasp, realizing that the friend he had made this time might be even more extraordinary than he had imagined.

Thinking of this, Duanmu Yuan felt extremely happy. The more capable his friends were, the happier he became.

For no other reason than to make someone happy!

Duanmu Yuan knew that Nangong Yijian and the other two were either guards or maids, so he knew they wouldn't sit down with him. He sat down opposite Li Jing and said, "Brother Li, did you come to Yunlong County this time to try and seize the inner core of the dragon?"

"Dragon's inner core?"

Li Jing raised an eyebrow and said.

"Yes, the inner core of a dragon."

"Rumors are circulating that the thirteenth prince and his entourage came to Meteor Dragon Lake for top-grade divine medicine or for the Black Python King."

"That statement is both right and wrong."

Duanmu Yuan nodded and said.

"I understand what Brother Duanmu means. They are indeed after the Black Python King."

"But the real purpose is not the Black Python King, but the inner core of the Flood Dragon after the Black Python King transforms into a Flood Dragon."

Li Jing said thoughtfully.
