Chapter 9 Lowering the Proud Head (2/2)



Wenren Yang took it and left with longing eyes.

He simply couldn't muster even the slightest thought of resistance...

The contents of Long Ye's paper were similar to those of Wenren Yang's, but even so, it infuriated him so much that he gritted his teeth and suppressed his anger.

But when he was halfway through reading, someone else came from outside the courtyard.

"Sixth Miss," it was the First Elder, "the compensation we agreed on for what happened before..."

The elder was stunned by the scene in the courtyard.

"Your Highness, Your Highness..."

The dragon elders following behind the Grand Elder were dumbfounded!

What did they see?

Why is Your Highness kneeling and reading from a piece of paper?!

The dragon elders looked over with complicated expressions, completely unable to understand this behavior.

Tianning shrugged helplessly. She had already tried to persuade them... but they just wouldn't believe her.

Long Ye's proud head, which he had never lowered, now shrank back in embarrassment.

That's so embarrassing!

How can he tell his face that he was humiliated?

He could accept secretly telling his father after returning to the Dragon Palace, asking his father to kill Tianning, but he could not accept making this matter known to everyone!

Are you going to stomp on the face of that little prince of the Dragon Palace?

Even if they were from the same clan, he would never let them know!

"This... I was just playing a game with the Wen family siblings..." Long Ye lied awkwardly.

As soon as the elders entered the courtyard, the white tiger shrank back to its cat form, and the oppressive aura in the courtyard vanished in an instant.

This made Long Ye's lie sound somewhat believable...

Yeah, right!

Playing games is bullshit!

Look at how badly the door to this house is smashed, and the little prince looks so disheveled—they'd believe he'd been in a fight!

Long Ye had no patience to get them to accept his explanation, so he changed the subject and questioned them in return:

"What are you doing here?"

Several dragon clan elders glanced at Wenren Xue and Wenren Yang in the courtyard, their eyes darting around.

There are outsiders present. Even if it wouldn't hurt to tell the young prince about this, we can't say it now...

"What exactly happened?" Long Ye had already stood up and looked at them suspiciously.

"Didn't she not have a contract with the dragon race?"

Why did these elders specifically come to find that brat?

"Actually... the Dragon-Guiding Stone has found a contracted partner..."

"Elder Yan!" another elder hurriedly called out to remind them, "There are other people here!"

The Dragon King had already given orders that the Dragon Ancestor's affairs must not be known to a fourth human!

Elder Yan knew this, of course. He braced himself and took out a dragon egg: "We are here to escort the Sixth Miss's contract partner."

Dragon Elder: 6

You're quick-witted, kid!

The two sides were locked in a tense standoff, each telling lies to the other.

Wenren Xue and Wenren Yang stared at the dragon egg, puzzled. Long Han was surprised, while Long Ye's expression was extremely grim.

That egg... was the designated successor to the Dragon King.

My father's first child!

The emperor had been full of anticipation, but the egg had been incubating for nearly a thousand years without any sign of hatching, forcing the emperor to shift his attention to his other children...

But Long Ye knew all too well that his father’s love for that dead egg had not diminished in the slightest. Not only did his father not discard the dead egg that could not be hatched at all, but he even allowed an egg to occupy the position of the eldest prince of the dragon clan and refused to establish a crown prince.

It can be said that as long as something hatches from this dead egg, his position as the most favored prince of the dragon clan will inevitably be in jeopardy!

Long Ye was wary of it!

That's right, it's facing an egg.

As time passed, he had long forgotten about a dead egg that posed no real threat, but he never expected that it would suddenly reappear one day!

He was bound by a human contract he wanted to kill...

Very good, very good!

The things he hated came together.

He watched as Elder Yan handed the dragon egg to Tian Ning and sneered, "Didn't you give it all away? Why aren't you leaving yet?"

"..."

"Actually... His Majesty the Dragon King has something else for us to give to Miss Six."

Long Ye's eyelids twitched: "What is that?"

Then he watched as the dragon elders took out a pile of treasures that even he coveted: a Heavenly Grade Pill Furnace, a Top-Grade Magic Robe, Ninth-Rank Spiritual Plants, Top-Grade Pills... and hundreds of millions of High-Grade Spirit Stones.

Long Ye couldn't believe his eyes!

The others couldn't help but gasp—

That's incredibly extravagant!

Anyone who didn't know better would think Tianning was the Dragon King's illegitimate daughter!

Even though Long Ye was the young prince, he had never seen so many good things. Wenren Yang and Wenren Xue looked on with even more fervor as Elder Yan put the items into the storage bag and handed them to Tian Ning.

As members of a prominent family, does this mean they can also get a share of the pie?
