After a round of scolding, Yue Zhenshan's face turned red and pale, yet he never bowed his head. Once Wang Long finished his tirade, he coldly replied, "You can call me cowardly or timid, but the facts are the facts! This is the way of heaven, the trend of the times, and no single person or force can change it!"
"In today's world, the Nine Continents have been in disarray for nearly a thousand years, and only now has the Human Emperor emerged to unify the realm! This is a decree from above! The fate of the world is at stake! Although you are the leader of Dragon City, you too cannot go against heaven's will and defy destiny!"
Wang Long sneered, "You, a mere Dragon Head and a rebellious person, dare to claim to represent heaven's will! What a joke!"
Yue Zhenshan coldly snorted but did not respond.
Jiang Xue spoke in a deep voice, "Take this person away as well, and then please bring Elder Du Yinping and all the Guardian Elders back so we can discuss matters together."
Soon, Yue Zhenshan was taken away, and the Guardian Elders entered.
Du Yinping cast a cold glance at Wang Long but said nothing. He reported solemnly, "Reporting to the clan leader, the battlefield has been cleared, and orders have been given for the injured soldiers to receive treatment."
Jiang Xue nodded, "Good... Since the Left Envoy, seven Supreme Elders, and five Guardian Elders are all present, along with the new Dragon Head of Dragon City here with us, let us discuss our next steps!"
Man Qianyi smiled and looked at Wang Long, saying, "Before we proceed, let us express our gratitude for Dragon City's assistance in this battle, especially to the Dragon Lord! If it weren't for your efforts in killing that man in black and seizing the Mysterious Heaven's Dark Wheel, who knows how the situation might have turned out!"
Wang Long waved his hand with a smile, "The Serpent Demon Clan has deep roots; even I was enlightened today. Even if I hadn't intervened today, those ambushers would still have faced dire consequences!"
Man Qianyi smiled but did not say more.
Jiang Xue then spoke seriously, "All elders have seen that the Human Emperor's ambitions have completely infiltrated the Kyushu Islands. Even figures like the Nine Provinces Dragon Head may have been bought off or are being prepared for such. Fortunately, he is currently engaged in fierce battles in the Southern Sea and cannot attend to the Kyushu Islands for now; however..."
"It may not be long before that changes... A mere vanguard commander can create such chaos against our entire Serpent Demon Clan. If the Human Emperor's Army truly launches a large-scale invasion, the consequences..."
Jiang Xue paused momentarily as many elders furrowed their brows, clearly having thought of this point as well.
"Moreover, today's battle took place within our Serpent Demon Mountain Valley. With the power of Eight Fiend Ancestor Python and a Serpent Warrior on our side and advantageous terrain along with support from Dragon City, we barely achieved victory. Without these advantages or lacking even one of them, it is hard to imagine what would have happened."
"Therefore..." Jiang Xue took a deep breath and said solemnly, "What I mean is that an alliance between our two clans is not only an inevitable choice but also the only choice! It is not just something we must do; it is urgent!"
"What do you all think?"
After saying this, she scanned the crowd with her eyes. For a moment, everyone was hesitant, but most had already accepted her views and decisions in their hearts.
Wang Long seized the opportunity to speak up: "Elders, I must be frank. Before I became the leader, I entered the noble forbidden area with Noble Clan Leader, into the ancestral tomb of the past clan leaders; there, besides the remains of the past clan leaders, there were also rare editions of Dragon Script and Heavenly Book, as well as the true manuscript of Serpent Clan Secret Classic... which is the Scroll of Rebirth!"
"I know..." Wang Long said loudly amid the rising clamor from the crowd. "The entire power of Serpent Demon Clan, including Dragon Techniques, comes from this Heavenly Book. However, throughout history, no one has ever fully comprehended all its mysteries, nor has anyone ever made it public..."
Du Yinping's expression changed as he sneered: "Are you implying that you have unraveled its secrets?"
"That's right..." Wang Long glanced at him and chuckled lightly. "Indeed, and... I am willing to completely translate the text and make it available for all elders to study!"
"Oh?"
Everyone was taken aback. The Dragon Script and Heavenly Book were treasures of the clan, the foundation of all methods. Historically, only the clan leader could comprehend them independently and pass on simplified and evolved Martial Arts to others.
If Wang Long truly translated and made public the entire volume of Dragon Script and Heavenly Book, it would almost be a revolutionary change for the entire Serpent Demon Clan.
Jiang Xue nodded and said: "I can also testify that there is indeed a complete version of this unique manuscript with the leader, and it is a true understanding after complete comprehension."
"Not only that... If there ever comes a day when our two clans can coexist peacefully and work together side by side, even the three volumes of Dragon Script and Heavenly Book from Dragon City can be brought out for us to study together," Wang Long added with a great temptation, smiling.
"What?!"
"This..."
Only Du Yinping remained unconvinced, sneering: "Although your words are tempting, they are indeed insubstantial, persuading others with unseen benefits. If we are truly to form an alliance, there should be concrete actions to demonstrate it..."
"Lord Right Envoy makes a valid point..." Wang Long interjected to stop Li Xinghe and Liu Chengyan from making any rash moves behind him. He smiled and said: "Then... how about the entire Southern State?!"
"Southern State?"
"What does 'Dragon Head' mean?!"
Wang Long smiled and said, "Southern State Dragon Head, plotting chaos, colluding with outsiders, scheming unlawfully! As the Dragon Head of Dragon City, I will completely eradicate him from the Kyushu Islands and never employ him again! As for how to deal with his life and such matters, that is up to you, after all, he is your prisoner of war..."
"However, this means that no one will lead the Southern State in the Kyushu Islands... If the Serpent Clan is willing to ally with us, I am willing to hand over the entire Southern State to you! From now on, you will be the official leaders of the entire Southern State!"
With this, everyone couldn't help but be tempted. Even Du Yinping's expression changed as he looked at Wang Long in disbelief, seemingly trying to discern some conspiracy from his face.
The Serpent Demon Clan had been hiding in the Valley for thousands of years; would they really be willing to remain hidden forever? They also knew how vast the outside world was; who wouldn't wish to walk freely in it? Unfortunately, under the dominance of Dragon City and the human race, this was almost impossible!
However, today, Wang Long's words told them that not only could they act freely from now on, but they would also lead a territory, completely handing over one-ninth of the Ancestor Continent's land—the Southern State—to them!
Such temptation was something no one could refuse.
At this moment, Man Qianyi suddenly spoke up.
He smiled slightly and said, "The Dragon Head has good calculations; such a twofold benefit is casually thrown out. Not only can it win the trust of the elders here and agree to ally with Dragon City to resist external enemies, but it can also stabilize the Southern State! Right now, the Southern State is without a leader and will inevitably lead to chaos. If we leverage the power and influence of the Serpent Demon Clan, we can quickly quell it. With just one word from the Dragon Head, there are tens of thousands more allies and a loyal guardian for himself!"
