Chapter 1829: Chapter 1825: Emperor Flowing Pulp, Holy Land Source (Part 2)
Xue An patted An Yan’s hand and gave a slight nod with his eyes.
An Yan understood and stepped forward to take Ah Rou’s hand, then walked away first.
Only then did Xue An approach Huyue and couldn’t help but chuckle, "Huyue, I never thought you’d have such charm, even the Second Princess is deeply infatuated with you!"
"Get lost, at a time like this you’re still mocking me? I don’t need that mad woman’s deep infatuation!" Huyue was furious and shouted angrily.
Xue An remained unfazed and instead lowered his voice, "Why don’t you shout a bit louder? If Ao Qing hears, what do you think he’ll make of it? Don’t forget your purpose for coming to the Dragon Clan!"
Huyue suddenly realized, and his previously arrogant demeanor immediately deflated.
"Alas, why is my fate so bitter, what should I do now!" He lamented with his head down.
Xue An patted him on the shoulder, "Alright, there will always be a way. If worse comes to worst, you could just marry the Second Princess too, and enjoy life with both of them, wouldn’t that be delightful?"
Upon hearing Xue An’s words, an image of his life after marrying Ao Yi flashed through Huyue’s mind, causing him to shudder.
That scene... just thinking about it was exciting!
Since the Divine Temple had been demolished by these reckless members of the Dragon Clan, Ao Qing led Xue An and the others to the Holy Land she had always guarded.
This was a space closely connected to the Dragon Ancestral Land, yet it formed a world of its own.
It is said that the ancestor of the Dragon Clan was born from this very world.
But because of the passage of time, no one knows if this legend is true or false anymore.
However, this place has always been passed down as the Dragon Sacred Land, and it became the burial ground for successive Bai Kings.
Amidst these enormous tombs, there was a small, elegant green mountain.
On the summit was a tea pavilion.
Ao Qing led Xue An, Huyue, and others, including the Great Elder, to this place.
"Please have a seat!"
Xue An first glanced at the tombs surrounding the small mountain, with a thoughtful look in his eyes, before sitting down.
"I heard Lord Red Lotus loves tea, so I specially traded with the Tree Demon Tribe for this exquisite demon tea. Lord Red Lotus, please taste its flavor?"
As he spoke, Ao Qing personally filled Xue An’s cup with tea.
Xue An nodded in thanks, then lifted the teacup to take a slight sniff. The faint aroma of tea wafted into his nose, refreshing his mind.
After sipping it, a warm current coursed through his body, making him feel entirely comfortable.
"Good tea!" Xue An couldn’t help but exclaim, "I never thought the Demon Race would have such fine tea!"
Ao Qing smiled slightly, "If Lord Red Lotus likes it, you could stay here, and not only will there be plenty of tea, but everything else will also be provided. Our Dragon Clan would even fully support you in returning to the peak of The Multiverse! How about it?"
Once these words were spoken, the tea pavilion fell silent.
Everyone had heard the implied meaning of Ao Qing’s words.
Standing behind her sister, Ao Shu’s palms were sweating with tension, her head lowered, she didn’t dare look at Xue An, silently praying in her heart.
Dragon God above, please let Brother Red Lotus agree!
Unfortunately, not even her Dragon God could sway Xue An.
In the gaze of everyone, Xue An didn’t even blink, calmly saying, "Thank you for the Great Princess’s kindness, but if I want to drink tea, I can buy it myself. As for returning to the peak..."
Xue An smiled, "What I’ve lost, I’ll naturally reclaim myself, without needing others’ help!"
Even though she had anticipated Xue An’s refusal, when she heard it, Ao Shu couldn’t help but tremble all over, her eyes brimming with tears.
Ao Qing sighed lightly, "Won’t you reconsider?"
Xue An slowly leaned back in his chair, gently holding An Yan’s hand beside him, calmly saying, "What do you think?"
Ao Qing was silent for a moment, then nodded, "Alright, I understand!"
Then her tone changed, "But I wonder, why did Lord Red Lotus trouble himself to come to our Dragon Ancestral Land?"
Xue An didn’t hesitate and directly said, "I have a subordinate who is a Jiaolong, gravely injured and thus lost most of her life energy. So I wish to let her enter the Dragon Sacred Land’s source to aid her recovery!"
"No!" Ao Qing refused without any hesitation.
Xue An was slightly taken aback.
Ao Qing said lightly, "If Lord Red Lotus came for this matter, then don’t mention it again. It is absolutely impossible!"
"Why?" Xue An couldn’t help but ask.
Ao Qing was silent for a moment before saying slowly, "Because only our Dragon Clan can enter the source of the Holy Land, no one else is allowed!"
"But Xiao Sha is also a Jiaolong!" An Yan said.
Ao Qing displayed a mocking look, "Can a Jiaolong be considered part of the Dragon Clan?"
"Can’t it?"
"No!"
At this, Ao Qing picked up her teacup, took a delicate sip, and then said, "Lord Red Lotus, if it were anything else, I might help you, but for this, I cannot!"
Xue An looked at Ao Qing, his gaze flickering as if contemplating something, without speaking.
Ao Shu couldn’t help but say, "Big Sister..."
"There’s no need to say more. No matter who pleads, it’s useless!" Ao Qing said firmly.
The situation suddenly fell into a deadlock, with silence enveloping the tea pavilion.
Even the expression of the Great Elder became a bit unnatural.
Finally, Xue An slowly sat up straight, looking at Ao Qing across from him, half-smiling, "Alright! Since the Great Princess says so, I will give up this idea. Let’s end this matter here!"
An Yan was shocked upon hearing this.
What does it mean?
Is her husband planning not to save Xiao Sha anymore?
Ao Qing also did not expect Xue An to give up directly, and was taken aback.
Meanwhile, Xue An continued, "I now have one more question for the Great Princess, this should be possible, right?"
Ao Qing nodded, "Please go ahead!"
Xue An placed his arms on the table in front, leaned forward slightly, and stared intently at Ao Qing, emphasizing each word, "I wonder if the Great Princess knows the whereabouts of the Emperor Flowing Pulp?"
Upon hearing this, Ao Qing’s body shook dramatically, and her usually calm demeanor changed.
"Emperor Flowing Pulp? What do you want it for?" Ao Qing asked in a trembling voice.
Xue An said calmly, "It’s simple, to save someone!"
Ao Qing pondered for a moment, eventually shaking her head, and in a bitter voice said, "I’m sorry, I don’t know!"
With that said, she muttered confusedly, "In fact, in today’s Multiverse, no one should know the whereabouts of the Emperor Flowing Pulp!"
The atmosphere became incredibly heavy.
Huyue’s face was full of despair because if even the Dragon Clan’s Great Princess didn’t know the whereabouts of the Emperor Flowing Pulp, it implied that this elusive thing might not exist at all.
But just then, Xue An suddenly sneered, "So, are you also just going to watch the source of the Dragon Sacred Land perish?"
These words, like a thunderous shock, caused Ao Qing’s expression to change dramatically.
