Chapter 769: Chapter 764: This Wretched Old Man is Not a Good Person! Chapter 769: Chapter 764: This Wretched Old Man is Not a Good Person! Jingzhe City.
Bai Qi casually relished the local delicacies by the seashore, his eyes never leaving the huge ship docked at the harbor in the distance.
“I didn’t expect such advanced shipbuilding technology in this era. The wisdom of our ancestors is indeed not to be underestimated.”
As Bai Qi put a piece of fish into his mouth, he reflected.
“Indeed so. After the Dragon Emperor ca to power, he vigorously promoted the developnt of all kinds of industries, one could say he incited a big burst of thought in this era.”
Bai Qiucha nodded and said, “This Wolong Number is the accomplishnt of the Armor Sect. To put it frankly, they might be the founders of your chanical Engineering Departnt.”
“Oh?”
Bai Qi instantly developed an interest at these words. Although knowledge surely advanced with the progress of ti, that did not translate to older knowledge being inferior to the future’s.
Sotis, the vintage series was even better than the future series.
“It’s a pity there’s not enough ti, otherwise I would definitely seize so opportunity to get in touch with it. It would also be useful for Schuck.”
Bai Qi sighed regretfully. Suddenly, he raised his eyebrow and turned to look behind him.
Their location was near the largest restaurant by the port. The view was exceedingly beautiful and many people were coming and going, making it quite lively.
However, the new batch of custors who had just co upstairs gave Bai Qi a peculiar feeling.
“Murderous intent? It doesn’t seem quite like it.”
Bai Qi watched a few individuals out of the corner of his eye, feeling puzzled.
“Bai Qi, those people…”
Bai Qiucha noticed the abnormality and quietly asked Bai Qi.
“Hmm, they all ca from the battlefield.”
Bai Qi nodded and looked back at the street outside the window.
For so reason, a few individuals of a similar temperant appeared on the street below, and among them were so Legendary Beast Masters.
“It seems the Dragon Emperor is about to arrive…”
Bai Qi squinted his eyes, looking towards the other end of the street.
Upon a wave of noise, the figures of the Dragon God Guards appeared within sight and then several gigantic dragons erged in the sky.
Seeing this, the people on both sides of the street knelt down one after another, calling out long live.
The Golden Dragon Carriage then slowly drove up.
“As expected!”
Bai Qi’s eyes brightened at seeing this. Although he’d already seen two human emperors, this did not hinder his curiosity about the Dragon Emperor.
Moreover, at this point in ti, the Dragon Emperor should be at his strongest.
I wonder, did the Dragon Emperor at this ti possess the strength of a Demi-God?
The dragon carriage slowly approached, and the people around it beca frantic.
So were ecstatic because they could see the Dragon Emperor with their own eyes.
Others, however, clearly held different reasons…
Bai Qi caught a glimpse of several corners around him. Those few individuals were firmly fixing their gaze at the direction of the Dragon Carriage, their fists clenched, seemingly a bit anxious.
“Cha, keep an eye on those guys. Zhuge Chen, rember to protect ordinary people around you if anything happens.”
Bai Qi whispered a few words and then gazed at the legendary figures below.
“As for those below, leave them to .”
Finally, the Dragon Carriage arrived near the restaurant. The surroundings beca exceedingly quiet—no sound could be heard, even breathing was clearly audible.
But precisely because of this, the solemn murderous intent beca even more perceptible, seeming as though it would take on physical form at any mont.
“Be ready, they’re about to act.”
Bai Qi’s eyes flashed with cold light, he was ready to summon his beast at any mont. However, just then, the Dragon Carriage suddenly halted.
The sudden stop clearly caught everyone off guard. Seeing the Dragon God Guards leaving their ranks and approaching the restaurant, Bai Qi could clearly feel the few people around him quickening their breaths.
Had these individuals’ movents been detected?
Raising his eyebrows, Bai Qi thought it was indeed possible. The Dragon Emperor’s strength at this ti could indeed border on semi-divine. At the very least, he was a top-notch power among legends. If even he could spot the abnormality, there was no reason the Dragon Emperor could not.
The Dragon God Guards quickly arrived at Bai Qi’s floor and walked straight towards the window.
To his surprise, their target was not the suspicious characters Bai Qi was thinking of, but rather, himself.
“Sir Bai Qi, his Majesty requests your presence.”
A Dragon God Guard holding a golden scroll approached Bai Qi and respectfully handed it to him, leaving Bai Qi utterly baffled.
How did the Dragon Emperor know his na?
Was it the Green Dragon Tribe Leader? Or had the intelligence capacity of the Dragon Dynasty beco this scary?
“Sir Bai Qi, his Majesty said he will explain your doubts in person. Please co to his Majesty’s Dragon Carriage.”
The Dragon God Guard’s attitude was extrely respectful. Bai Qi scrutinized him for a good while but was unable to find any sign of him pretending, thus he took the scroll and opened it.
“Young man from the future, look down.”
Seeing the words on the scroll, Bai Qi’s pupils contracted. He leaned over and looked out the window, only to find that the window of the Dragon Carriage had opened a crack at so point. Through the gap, an aged man dressed in dragon robes was vaguely visible, beckoning to him.
“I understand, gentlen, would you please lead the way.”
Releasing a heavy breath, Bai Qi signaled for Bai Qiucha and Zhuge Chen to follow him, only to be stopped by the Dragon God Guard.
“Apologies Sir Bai Qi. His Majesty wishes to et only you for the ti being. These two individuals are not included.”
“Only ?”
Bai Qi frowned slightly, summoned Alpha to guard them, and then followed the Dragon God Guard away.
“Bai Qi… he wouldn’t be in danger, would he?”
Zhuge Chen was sowhat worried, but Bai Qiucha seed to think of sothing, saying, “I think Bai Qi should be okay. Additionally, this distance shouldn’t pose any problem for Alpha. Don’t worry.”
“I suppose so.”
Zhuge Chen nodded slightly, not speaking further, yet his eyes still betrayed his lingering concern.
After all, that was the Dragon Emperor.
Under the guidance of the Dragon God Guard, Bai Qi arrived before the Dragon Carriage. Before Bai Qi could knock, the wooden door to the Dragon Carriage slowly opened.
Without further ado, Bai Qi pushed the door open and walked in.
“Greetings, young man from the future.”
As soon as Bai Qi entered, he saw an old man giving him a warm smile. If it weren’t for the royal robes the man was wearing, Bai Qi might have taken him for an ordinary old man on the street.
“Your Majesty, what is the purpose of your summoning?”
Bai Qi looked deeply into the Dragon Emperor’s dichromatic eyes and figured out his ga, getting straight to the point.
“Actually, there was no particular issue, I just wanted the rare opportunity to have a conversation with a ti traveler.”
A conversation?
A smirk tugged at the corners of Bai Qi’s mouth, clearly unable to accept this flimsy excuse.
“I understand. You aren’t much of a talker. Let’s change the topic.”
Seeing Bai Qi’s reaction, the Dragon Emperor chuckled and stated, “In one more month, I’ll be dead. Interested in accompanying this decrepit old man to the end?”
Hearing the Dragon Emperor’s words, Bai Qi finally showed so emotion. He looked at the indifferent Dragon Emperor and sighed helplessly.
“Your Majesty, seeing you so detached from mortal coil, I am in awe,” Bai Qi moved to sit next to the Dragon Emperor and asked, “Having foreseen your own demise, have you not thought about changing your fate?”
“Change my fate? Of course, I have thought about it. But as you should know, before the continuum of ti, such attempts are rely a joke.”
The Dragon Emperor laughed indifferently, Bai Qi fell silent.
Indeed, judging by his experiences so far, changing one’s fate was a joke. All his actions did so far were nothing more than ensuring the course of history.
“Let’s not talk about such a weighty topic, my Candle Dragon inford that it detected a similar aura on your familiar. Can you summon your familiar and let have a look?”
The Dragon Emperor’s eyes turned back to their normal black as he suggested this, following which a stunning crimson divine dragon appeared by his side.
It is indeed the Candle Dragon!
Seeing this, Bai Qi understood. The Dragon Emperor had long foreseen everything through the Candle Dragon. No wonder he exposed himself without any concern.
“Delta, co forth.”
Seeing this, Bai Qi made no fuss and summoned Delta directly.
“Excellent! Excellent! Excellent!”
Upon seeing Delta, the Dragon Emperor exclaid three tis and then laughed, “A Divine Dragon with both Ti and Space attributes, what a pity you don’t belong to this era, otherwise, I would entrust you with the Dragon Dynasty, whatever it took!”
“Your Majesty, please don’t jest.”
Hearing this, Bai Qi couldn’t help but laugh. However, when he saw the Dragon Emperor’s expression, his smile froze on his face.
The Dragon Emperor seed to be serious!
“I never joke.”
The Dragon Emperor’s stern expression returned. His awe-inspiring deanor seed to be coupled with a dreadful pressure that landed on Bai Qi.
The Dragon Emperor, he truly was a demi-god!
Fortunately, the Dragon Emperor soon realized his lapse in deanor, his aura retracted imdiately and said, “My apologies, I beca too accustod to speaking this way and lost control.”
“No harm done, it’s just… I didn’t expect Your Majesty to have reached demi-god status.”
Upon hearing this, the Dragon Emperor smiled and said, “So what if I’m a demi-god? I still can’t change the course of destiny.”
Having said this, the Dragon Emperor paused and said, “However, you’re different from . Your future still holds endless possibilities.”
“?”
Bai Qi was taken aback and was about to inquire more when he saw the Candle Dragon suddenly disappear from its spot and appear right before Delta.
Delta, who was placed in this situation, instinctively wanted to fight back, but found himself incapable of even moving. He could only watch as a pair of candle-like flas flew out of the Candle Dragon’s eyes, rging into its own.
“Don’t be alard. The Candle Dragon is only giving you a small help, it will benefit you in the future.”
Seeing Bai Qi’s tense expression, The Dragon Emperor only chuckled. The Rune Mark on his forehead flared montarily and the Candle Dragon disappeared from the spot as the Dragon Emperor’s eyes returned to their dichromatic color.
“Thank you, Your Majesty. But what did you an just now?”
After patting Delta and receiving an affirmative response, Bai Qi asked again.
“Don’t you understand? History may remain unchanged, but you can change.”
The Dragon Emperor stared at Bai Qi, his face solemn as he said, “In the process of ti traveling, both you and your familiar are growing stronger by the day. If you continue to grow, perhaps even beco strong enough to surpass ti’s control, you might be able to change history!”
“Supass ti’s control… Is it really possible?”
Upon hearing these words, Bai Qi fell silent. Yet a glimr of hope twinkled in his eyes.
“Of course not.”
There was a pause and Bai Qi just faltered in shock.
Damn, he even began feeling a spark of hope, and it turns out to be rely an illusion.
To even deceive such a naive boy, that old codger is no gentleman!
