"Oh……"

After listening to Li Guanqi's question, the dark dragon who called himself Hades let out a deep chuckle.

I don't know if it was an illusion, but Li Guanqi seemed to hear some sarcasm, or self-deprecation?

"What do you think is the difference between us dragons and you humans?"

The dark dragon looked at Li Guanqi and asked slowly.

"There are a lot of differences."

Li Guanqi shrugged, "For example, you are as big as a mountain, and a human being in front of you is not as big as your eyes... But you definitely don't want to hear me say this, so don't be pretentious and speak directly.

."

"Dragons and humans are the same."

The dark dragon's voice was hoarse, "In other words, all creatures with high intelligence are the same. They will do whatever it takes to get what they want, such as power, status, and glory.

198 years ago, the dragon clan elected the dragon king of the previous generation.

His name was Apollo Leopold Gladstone Leanchard Croton.

It is a golden dragon.

Before Croton, the Golden Dragon Clan had been the leader of the Dragon King for eight consecutive terms. This was the longest consecutive term for the Golden Dragon Clan, equal to history.

And it wants to continue this re-election record.

For Croton, if it can become the new generation of dragon king, it will allow the golden dragon family to break the record and achieve the epic record of nine consecutive dragon kings, and it will be famous in history.

, to be remembered by future generations, this is an unparalleled honor.

Who can say no?

At least Croton couldn't refuse.

Croton is very strong. He wants to stand out in the ‘battle selection’ and get the only three places. It will hardly be a surprise for him.

However, in terms of prestige, it is not as good as another dark dragon named Luke Gresham Summerfield.

Summerfield is also very strong.

Like Croton, it is a being that can stand out in the 'battle selection' 100% of the time.

Although three dragons will be selected in the 'battle selection' session, in fact, all the dragons that year knew that the final dragon king would only appear between Croton and Summerfield.

Croton was born into the golden dragon clan and had a noble background.

Summerfield, who was born into the dark dragon clan, has a humble background in comparison.

However, Summerfield is the strongest person in the history of the Black Dragon Clan. He is the first and so far the only black dragon in the history of the Black Dragon Clan to reach the Nine Palace Level Great Perfection.

Moreover, it has already accumulated a lot of reputation among the Dragon Clan by virtue of its every move. In terms of reputation, Croton cannot compare with it at all.

If it were a normal election, Summerfield would definitely win in the 'voting' session after the 'battle election', defeat Croton, and become the final Dragon King.

However, things backfired.

Just three days before the 'voting' was about to start, a piece of news spread throughout the dragon clan.

——The reason why Summerfield can be so powerful is because it has devoured the remains of all the ancestors of the black dragons in the ancestral graves of the black dragons, and exchanged powerful power at the cost of desecrating the remains of the ancestors, so it can become the best in the history of the black dragon clan.

The strongest.

As soon as this incident came out, the entire dragon clan was shocked.

Giant dragons value the remains of their ancestors the most. Among the dragon clan, this kind of behavior is even ten thousand times more serious than killing a fellow human being.

So, under the joint witness of all the dragons, Summerfield and the black dragon clan dug up the tombs of their ancestors in an attempt to prove themselves.

But what’s the result?

Empty.

The ancestral graves of the Black Dragon clan were all empty, and there was not even a single ancestor's skeleton.

Therefore, the crime was confirmed.

——The reason why Summerfield is powerful, and the reason why it can become the strongest in the history of the black dragon clan, is because it treasonously devoured the remains of its ancestors and desecrated its ancestors.

What a reasonable thing?

Yes, the Black Dragon clan is supposed to be weak and incompetent, but it can actually produce a Jiugong-level Dzogchen. It must have devoured the remains of its ancestors.

All dragons think so.

Including the Black Dragon clan themselves.

Therefore, the day before the 'voting' was about to begin, Summerfield was convicted of being a sinful dragon and expelled from the dragon clan.

Logically speaking, it should be punished by death for desecrating the remains of so many ancestors, but its Nine Palace Level Great Perfection strength finally made the dragons give up this option, and in the end they just expelled it.

After Summerfield was expelled, Croton became the undisputed first in the vote and became the Dragon King.

Croton successfully helped the Golden Dragon Clan to reach the epic record of being crowned Dragon King for nine consecutive terms. Therefore, it became famous in history. If nothing else, countless dragons in the future generations will hear about its legend.

As for Summerfield?

Oh, who cares about the whereabouts of a sinful dragon..."

At the end of the sentence, the dark dragon who called himself "Hades" let out a sigh of extreme exhaustion.

Li Guanqi, who was standing in front of it, turned his head slightly and met the eyes of Olena, the Queen of the Night beside him. Both of them were a little surprised.

Obviously, even Olena had never heard of this before.

"You are Summerfield."

Li Guanqi looked at the dark dragon with complicated eyes, "Did Croton frame you? Is it the former Golden Dragon King who secretly dug out the black dragon's ancestral grave?"

Judging from the interests involved, the person who did this was either the Golden Dragon Clan or Croton himself.

"Is this important?"

The dark dragon's voice was calm, "It's not important anymore. What's important is that the inferiority complex of the black dragon family has been engraved in the bone marrow. When all the dragons were questioning and angrily scolding Summerfield, its compatriots did not stand on its side."

, but also scolded it angrily.

Why?

Because even the Black Dragon clan themselves do not believe that any Black Dragon can reach the realm of Nine Palaces level perfection by relying solely on their own strength.

How ridiculous is this?

Black dragon, a dragon species with low self-esteem...ha..."

"You haven't tried to prove yourself?"

Hearing this, Queen Olena couldn't help shouting: "This is unfair! You were framed! You should find evidence to prove your innocence and bring down that despicable golden dragon Croton!"

"..."

The dark dragon was silent for a moment, "I have tried, but there is nothing I can do. The world is so big, finding a pile of bones is as difficult as finding a needle in a haystack, and if nothing goes wrong, the remains of the ancestors will be dug out as soon as possible.

, has been directly destroyed. As for looking for other evidence... I can only say that the guy who did it almost did it flawlessly."

"So you have been wandering around as a sinful dragon for 198 years?"

Li Guanqi looked around and looked at the black crystal cave, "Then, are you going to live out your old age here and die in this cave that no one cares about?"

"What do you want to say?"

The dark dragon's voice was calm.

"go back!"

Li Guanqi looked at him and said seriously: "Follow me back to the dragon's ancestral nest, let those dragons with holes in their brains know the truth, and restore your innocence! If you want to die, you have to prove your innocence before you die.

, you have to leave your innocence in this world, right?!"

"Um?"

The dark dragon was obviously a little confused, "But, 198 years have passed, and I didn't find the evidence back then. Do you think you can find it?"

"Physical evidence is hard to find."

Li Guanqi said solemnly: "But the witness...oh no, the dragon witness, it should not be difficult to find. Secretly hollowing out the tombs of the ancestors of the Black Dragon clan is definitely not something that Croton can accomplish by himself.

It definitely helps.

Moreover, it is very likely that your own compatriots from the Black Dragon Clan are helping it, so that it can guard against theft and complete it without leaving any trace.

Now is the election of the Dragon King, and most of the dragon clans in the world have gathered in the dragon's ancestral nest. If you want to find an informed dragon, now is the best chance!

Summerfield, don’t hesitate any more, take me there, and let’s prove your innocence together!”

"It's possible in theory, but almost impossible in practice."

The dark dragon lowered his eyes, "Do you think that as long as you give a speech in the past, the informed dragon will come forward with guilt? Or do you think that these dragons will squat in place obediently and let you pass one by one?

Search the soul to check the memory?"

"Speech? Of course I'm not that naive."
