Chapter 280: Save the Wife or Save the Daughter
Long Dian stared at the divine restoration fruit in his palm, his fingertips trembling slightly.
This fruit might be the key to repairing the Dragon Grandmother's divinity.
He had read in the ancient books of the dragon clan that once the divine nature repair fruit was picked, it must be consumed within a very short period of time, otherwise the essence of heaven and earth contained in it would quickly dissipate.
Time was running out, so he didn't dare to delay. He immediately transformed into a dragon, soared into the sky, and flew towards the tree house.
The wind was whistling in his ears, but Long Dian's heartbeat was even more violent than the beating of his wings.
——Faster, faster!
…
Inside the tree house, Long Chen stood quietly in front of the window, his brows slightly furrowed.
The mark on the little phoenix remained calm, and the person behind the scenes had not yet appeared, which made him feel vaguely uneasy.
——What is the other party waiting for?
At this moment, a familiar breath suddenly approached.
"Dragon Ancestor!"
Long Dian's voice was filled with irrepressible excitement. As soon as he finished speaking, his figure appeared on the balcony, his long black hair fluttering and his eyes sparkling with excitement.
"I found a divine restoration fruit!"
He spread out his palm, and a longan-sized fruit was quietly suspended. It was crystal clear, with mysterious patterns flowing on its surface. The surging energy fluctuations even caused the surrounding air to slightly distort.
Long Chen's pupils suddenly shrank, and he flashed in front of him almost instantly, grabbed his wrist, and stared at the fruit.
——It really is the fruit of divine restoration!
His heart was beating like a drum and indescribable ecstasy was surging in his chest.
After so many years, the method to repair the divinity that he had been searching for finally appeared before his eyes!
"If Grandmother Long eats it, perhaps her divine nature can be restored." There was hope in Long Dian's voice.
Long Chen took a deep breath, suppressed his surging emotions, carefully took the fruit, turned and walked towards Ange.
"Ange, come, eat this." His voice was low and gentle, yet trembling slightly.
Ange raised her eyes, met his fiery gaze, and was slightly startled.
How long had she and Long Chen been waiting for this moment?
After her divine nature was repaired, the laws of heaven were no longer a threat, and Long Chen would not have to work so hard.
She nodded slightly, took the fruit and put it in her mouth.
The fruit melted in her mouth, transforming into a warm and powerful energy that flowed along her meridians and slowly seeped into her divinity.
In an instant, a faint golden light shone around her body, and the damaged divine nature began to heal at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Long Chen stared at her changes closely, his breathing almost stagnating.
——It really works!
Long Dian also held his breath, his eyes full of anticipation.
——Half an hour ago·White Bird Tribe——
Queyu stood in the middle of the tree house, his fingertips trembling slightly.
Just now my men reported that the divine nature repairing fruit has been delivered to Long Dian.
At this moment, she was facing the door curtain woven with colorful feathers, and cold sweat was oozing out of her back.
“Sir.” He lowered his head, his voice respectful and tense, “I have handed the Godhead Restoration Fruit to Long Dian.”
A light laugh came from behind the door curtain. The sound was ethereal and melodious, as if it came from the horizon, but it carried a chilling chill: "Very good."
Queyu's throat tightened and he didn't dare to look up.
"Have your people stop Long Dian." The voice continued, its tone gentle but unquestionable, "Don't give him the chance to find Little Phoenix."
As soon as he finished speaking, a wisp of mist floated out from behind the door curtain, as light as a gauze, but revealing a biting chill.
Queyu watched Him float out of the window and rush towards the direction of the fluorescent river.
Her heart sank... White Bird Clan, there is no turning back!
The ethereal and melodious voice came from the sky again: "If Long Dian dares to stop us, kill him at all costs!"
Long Chen, it depends on who you want to protect, your wife or your child.
——He wants Long Chen to personally extract the divine nature from Ange’s body!
…
——Now·Tree House——
The last bit of energy from the divine restoration fruit merged into Ange's body, but her face suddenly turned pale.
"puff……"
A mouthful of blood spurted out of her mouth without warning, splashing on Long Chen's clothes, so dazzling that it was frightening.
"Ah——!" Ange hugged her head and let out a heart-wrenching scream, "Long Chen... I'm in so much pain..."
Her body was shaking violently, as if something was tearing her apart inside.
"There's something wrong with this fruit!" Long Chen's pupils suddenly shrank, and he instantly poured his spiritual power into Ange's heart, trying to stabilize her soul that was on the verge of collapse.
However, as soon as his spiritual power came into contact with Ange's divine nature, it was violently bounced away by a cold force.
"How could this happen?!" Long Chen's face changed drastically and he rushed forward, but he could only watch Ange's pain worsen.
The fruit that repairs the divine nature actually contains a trace of the laws of heaven!
It was eating away at Ange's soul bit by bit, like a cancer attached to his bones, spreading madly.
Long Chen's fingertips felt cold.
——To save her, the godhead must be extracted immediately!
But once the godhead leaves the body, Ange's life span will rapidly decrease. Even if he survives, he won't have much time left...
This is a dead end!
At this moment, Long Chen's spiritual consciousness suddenly shook - the mark on the little phoenix moved!
"Little Phoenix is in danger!" He looked up suddenly, his eyes bloodshot and full of self-blame.
——The person behind the scenes has taken action!
What a great chain of schemes!
If he goes to save Little Phoenix now, Ange will surely die; but if he doesn't go, Little Phoenix's half of his divine nature will be taken away!
Long Chen's breathing almost stagnated, and his chest seemed to be violently stirred by a sharp blade.
Wife or children?
He had never been so desperate.
"Dragon Ancestor!"
Long Dian suddenly took a step forward and said in a firm voice: "I'll go!"
Long Chen looked at him suddenly.
"The little phoenix has my lifeblood." Long Dian's eyes lit up with a determined fire, "I can sense her and reach her quickly!"
His fists were clenched so tightly that his nails dug deep into his palms.
Without waiting for Long Chen to answer, he turned into a ray of green light and flew out.
Flames of anger burned in the blue dragon's eyes, and he finally realized that this was an elaborately planned killing spree.
The people behind the scenes had a firm grasp on Dragon Ancestor's weak spot - first they took advantage of the weakness of Grandmother Dragon who urgently needed to repair her divine nature, and then used the timeliness of the divine nature repair fruit to force them to take it immediately.
One thing leads to another, it's so vicious!
"Damn it!" Long Dian clenched his teeth, and the muscles under his dragon scales were tense with anger.
It was all my fault that I was not strong enough and was unable to detect the power of the laws of heaven hidden in the fruit.
"Little Phoenix..." Thinking of the little guy who always called him "Long Dian" sweetly, Long Dian's heart seemed to be tightly grasped by an invisible hand.
He madly urged the spiritual power in his body, and the dragon's tail cut through the sky with a sharp explosion, and the speed had exceeded the limit.
However, just as he was about to reach the fluorescent river, the sky suddenly darkened.
Tens of thousands of bird warriors swooped down from the clouds, their sharp beaks and claws shining coldly in the sunlight, instantly blocking the entire sky.
