But now, after the little scout's reminder, everyone in the Eight Gates immediately became agitated. No one intended to let Bai Long go so easily. Originally, Xiaobai wanted to seek protection from Xu Yang, but this time Xu Yang just spread his hands lightly, clearly imitating Bai Long's deliberate prank just now.

“I’m sorry, but I can’t do anything about it. I even think what they say makes sense. You’ve been guarding this strait and stirring up trouble over the years. I don’t know how many teams and top cultivators have fallen in your hands.

Are you saying you don’t have any secret stash?

No one here will believe it. What's more important is that if you hand over your treasures now, it will be regarded as your redemption for the sins you committed in the past.

I believe that the person you are afraid of in your heart can also feel your sincerity.

After all, whether you are a human or a dragon, sooner or later you will have to pay for your actions. Don't you want to give yourself more consideration?

Besides, it is not easy to join my Xu Yang's team. Even if you have relatively pure dragon blood, you can never do whatever you want in my team. Now is the best opportunity for you to show your sincerity and perfectly integrate into the team.

If I miss it, I don’t know when I’ll get the next chance.”

So, with Xu Yang's help in coercion and inducement from the Eight Gates, the little white dragon finally chose to compromise and took out all the small treasury he had accumulated over the years to share with the Eight Gates.

There are some top-level ancient skills, some rare treasures, and more importantly, some powerful ancient artifacts with additional attribute powers.

There are also quite a few who can match up with the Eight Gates team. After all, this team originally had very different types of practice and techniques. If they were all practicing swordsmanship or a certain lineage's exclusive inheritance, it would be really difficult to divide the spoils.

But now almost everyone can find the most suitable thing for themselves in Xiaobai's small treasury. Although everyone said something scary, they didn't actually empty Bailong's small treasury completely.

At least more than half of the resource reserves were left for him, but the rest were basically nothing valuable. Xiaobai couldn't stop blushing when he saw this scene, but what else could he do?

"Hahaha, Brother Bailong, you don't need to be so sad. Although we took your treasure, we also appreciate your kindness. From now on, you will be a real member of our Eight Gates team.

If anyone dares to bully you in the future, I will be the first one to stand up for you."

When Xiaobai heard what Big Crab said, and how he was being so discerning about seniority in front of him, he almost vomited blood.

After all, he was a true descendant of the dragon clan who had lived for tens of thousands of years or even longer, yet this humble human guy called him "big brother" in front of him.

However, in order to adapt to his life of living under someone else's roof as quickly as possible, Xiaobai finally chose to endure the helplessness, with a bitter face, and nodded repeatedly.

After finishing the treatment of Xiaobai, Xu Yang continued to lead his team, with the help of the Five Princes' team, towards the end of the Withered Maple Man.

In the blink of an eye, another five days passed and they finally broke away from Ku Feng Xia and the most difficult waters near the Fallen Dragon Abyss. They arrived at the calm other side of the strait, with less than a day left before the actual landing.

For the rest of the journey, because the waters were relatively shallow and there were not too many winds and waves, the speed of travel was much faster than before, and the Fifth Prince felt a lot of pressure relieved.

But he also knew that the reason why he could be so helpful was all due to the role played by Xu Yang's team. If it were just him, he would probably not be able to get through the Withered Maple Man so easily in his lifetime.

That day, everyone had already started celebrating in the cabin and successfully landed on the other side of the Withered Maple Man.

Just as everyone was toasting each other, Xiaobai, who had transformed into a human form and was eating and drinking with everyone, suddenly frowned.

He looked at Xu Yang with a serious face.

Then he put down the wine glass in his hand.

Little did he know that Xu Yang also had a premonition. The moment he looked at him, he noticed something and the expression on his face became a little more complicated.

"Master, you should have noticed it too, right?

Something seems to be wrong. I actually felt the breath of another dragon. This is almost impossible in the entire Yingzhou continent!

But I can tell you clearly that my judgment should not be wrong. A breath of dragon should appear near the sea, and it is very likely that it has been watching us for a long time. "

Xu Yang nodded gently. "Your judgment is not wrong. I have been dealing with you before. The dragon aura on you is too pure and you are too close to me. That is why I temporarily gave up my guard. As expected, there is a clear difference between your aura and the aura of the giant dragon you found."

After hearing the conversation between the two, the others no longer had any desire to eat or drink, especially the Fifth Prince, whose expression became extremely solemn again. He had originally planned well, thinking that there would be no more difficulties after dealing with the white dragon, but he did not expect that there would be problems with his understanding of the rumors about the dragon clan in Yingzhou Continent.

"Boss, what do you think about this matter?"

Everyone turned their eyes to Xu Yang, and Xu Yang also gave his own deeper interpretation.

"Logically speaking, 80% of the forces that appeared in the Withered Maple Knight in advance should be from the palace. However, the one that came was a giant dragon, which made me think more. Now there are two possibilities.

Either this guy who released the aura of a dragon was originally a hidden force lurking in the palace, or he was also a servant of a powerful figure in the royal family.

Then, there should be only a handful of people in the entire palace who can control a giant dragon."

Having said that, Xu Yang set his gaze on the Fifth Prince. How smart is the Fifth Prince?

He immediately understood Xu Yang's hint, "You mean it's possible that this dragon was sent by the Emperor?"

Xu Yang nodded gently, "It is definitely possible, so we must not act rashly next, and first find out the true origin of the person who released the dragon's breath.

If he is really sent by your father, we cannot fight him easily. The best way is to adopt the strategy of taking advantage of his own strength.

If we show off our strength, we may not be able to keep this guy. Instead, our ambition will be exposed. If we do this, you may not have a good life after entering Xuanyuan Imperial City."

The Fifth Prince fully agreed with Xu Yang's persuasion and judgment, and nodded quickly.

"What you said makes sense. In that case, I'd like to trouble Lord Xu Yang to make another judgment and see who this guy who released the dragon's aura is.

However, according to the intelligence I have collected, no one in the palace has ever controlled the true power of the dragon.

As for my father, he has many strong men around him, but we, the princes of the Seven Veins, know nothing about the trump cards of this level of strength. Even if I were my father, I would not be able to figure out his own strength now. "

Xu Yang smiled and nodded gently, "This is normal. With your father's personality, if he could let you see it so easily, I'm afraid he would not be qualified to sit on the throne of the Central Region Royal Family."
