As the saying goes, the stronger one gets, the less responsible he will be.
Wang Yu did not realise that the nature of relationships in-game mirrored that of real life. As long as one had sufficient strength, they would be able to gain the respect of others.
Wang Yu had proven his capabilities when he led Twilight City into independence.
Such a city was on par with Dragon Island. They possessed unparalleled strength and did not need others to shelter them.
Thus, Wang Yu was an existence equivalent to the Holy Dragon Emperor, even though Wang Yu was just a player who had yet to awaken.
“Since it happens to be Twilight City Lord, come over!” Holy Dragon Emperor answered.
“Where? Where do I go?” Wang Yu gazed around him and all he saw was endless wilderness. He was wondering how he should proceed.
Just when Wang Yu was still in a daze, there was a big hole that opened in the space before him as a huge golden claw beckoned him in.
In an instant, Wang Yu arrived in an incomparably huge palace.
The craftsmanship of the palace was mediocre yet the walls were made from gold and adorned with precious gems.
The opulence of the palace startled Wang Yu.
A booming voice rang, “Eh, it is indeed Twilight City Lord!”
“???”
Wang Yu lifted his head and he saw a huge massive Golden Dragon standing before him. This dragon was almost 100 metres tall and there was a pair of imposing wings on its back. His tail was situated on his backside and it was as large as a small hill. Even the biggest BOSS Wang Yu ever encountered was only as big as a single arm of this dragon.
The Golden Dragon blended in with the overall facade of gold… If it did not speak, Wang Yu would have thought that it was a giant piece of gold…
Wang Yu subconsciously threw out a [Probing Skill] but all it returned were questions marks alongside the attributes of the Golden Dragon.
The Golden Dragon seemed to have sensed Wang Yu’s [Probing Skill] as he said faintly, “I am the Holy Dragon Emperor!”
“Greetings to the Holy Dragon Emperor!” Wang Yu courteously stood forward to greet him.
The dragon race is a proud species. Seeing Wang Yu’s humble attitude, the Holy Dragon Emperor did not beat about the bush and coldly replied, “Our Dragon Island does not have relations to humans. The few dragons you have killed only happen to possess some dragon race blood. They are not true blooded dragons. On the account that you are the Twilight City Lord, I shall not pursue this matter. However, you cannot stay here indefinitely!”
The dragon race indeed had the ability to back up their proud and haughty nature. These three sentences that Holy Dragon Emperor felt more like a command rather than a request to Wang Yu.
Wang Yu was mildly disappointed… This beast actually went to all that trouble to bring him into the palace before commanding him to leave…
“No, no, no.” Wang Yu quickly interjected, “I did not come because of this matter. I came to find Dales.”
“Dales? Are you a Martial Artist?” Holy Dragon Emperor scrutinised Wang Yu from head to toe as he inquired.
Wang Yu nodded, “En, that’s right! I have met some obstacles in my cultivation. I was hoping that Dales could provide me with some pointers.”
“Hmmm!” Holy Dragon Emperor coldly scoffed, “Oh, so it’s no wonder with your trivial ability you managed to lead your people into independence. You actually obtained the inheritance of that terrifying guy.”
“Hm?” Wang Yu was perplexed.
That terrifying guy that Holy Dragon Emperor was referring to should be Martial God. To think that there is someone that the Holy Dragon Emperor actually fears. Could it be that the Martial God had mastered the [Eighteen Descending Dragon Fist Arts]?
Holy Dragon Emperor continued, “Since it is a matter pertaining to martial arts, I have to give you face. Unfortunately, Dales is currently not on Dragon Island.”
“What? Not on Dragon Island?” Wang Yu wanted to swear in exasperation.
Sh*t, I have already spent so much money and have already been criticised by this hateful dragon. Are all these going to be for naught?
Holy Dragon Emperor said, “Dales was a longtime companion of Martial God when they roamed the mainlands together. He is also a dragon race warrior who seeks the pinnacle of martial arts. Naturally, he will not stay under the relative safety of Dragon Island.”
“Shit!”
Wang Yu was feeling a little indignant after being toyed around by these NPCs…
“In this case, I shall take my leave!”
Just as Wang Yu was about to commit suicide to return to the city (Dragon Island has no teleportation formation to the outside world), Wang Yu suddenly remembered, “Your Majesty, do you happen to know the whereabouts of Dales?”
“I am the all-knowing, omniscient Holy Dragon Emperor. Of course, I know!” Holy Dragon Emperor nodded shamelessly.
“F*ck, I knew it!” Wang Yu sullenly retracted his knife. If he did not ask the question in time, he would have been dead and whisked away without any additional information.
“Could Holy Dragon Emperor please enlighten me on the location of Mentor Dales?” Wang Yu tossed out a bag full of money and respectfully inquired.
If it was a human NPC, they would have fleeced Wang Yu clean of his money. However, Wang Yu still harboured a glimmer of hope for Holy Dragon Emperor to provide him with the right information.
Hearing Wang Yu’s question, Holy Dragon Emperor snorted, “I can easily tell you, but you definitely cannot go to the place with the level of your current strength!”
“Ah? I cannot go there?” Wang Yu was stunned as he offered the bag of money, “Please illuminate me, Holy Dragon Emperor!”
Holy Dragon Emperor glanced at the bag and scoffed, “Young man, I have never seen someone giving a hundred gold coins.”
“F*ck!” Wang Yu was appalled. A hundred gold was almost equivalent to a few thousand dollars. This was just providing information to him after all. It only cost ten dollars in the real world.
“Give me ten boxes of jewelry and I will send you over!” Holy Dragon Emperor declared.
“F*ck!”
Wang Yu’s almost collapsed to the ground in shock. Holy Dragon Emperor really knew how to bleed his finances dry.
This animal dared to demand ten boxes of jewelry? Does he plan to eat jewelry for dinner?
Wang Yu answered in annoyance, “I don’t have it!”
Don’t even talk about ten boxes, I don’t even have a box! This stinky old dragon!
“Hehe!” Holy Dragon Emperor sniggered sinisterly, “I know that you don’t have jewelry any on you, but you can always go and steal it from others! I have received the news that someone in Sky Dragon City is shipping jewelry. Since my identity is precarious, I cannot possibly go out of my way to bully humans.”
