Chapter 763 - Heavens Mandate (1/2)
After springing up from his bed, the Dragon King looked around in a confused look.
”W-What in the heavens' name was that killing intent just now?”
The Dragon King was left puzzled when there was nobody in his room.
”Did I have a nightmare because of my stress? I haven't been able to sleep properly since the Dragon Emperor disappeared, after all…” The Dragon King released a deep sigh.
However, just as the Dragon King laid back down on the bed, he heard a voice resound inside his room, and the voice sounded like it was responding to him.
”No, you're not dreaming.”
The Dragon King's eyes snapped wide open, and that's when he saw the old man standing beside his bed.
”Fuck! It's a ghost!” The Dragon King screamed for his life.
”Ghost? Can a ghost do this?” The old man suddenly released this divine aura that even though the Dragon King has never experienced before, he instinctively as a cultivator knew that this aura belonged to an immortal.
”I-I-Immortal?!”
The Dragon King was even more shocked to learn that he had been woken up by an Immortal than a ghost!
”I am looking for someone. Can you tell me more about this Dragon Emperor that you took to your household not long ago?”
”T-The Dragon Emperor?”
It took awhile for the Dragon King to process the situation, but when he eventually did, he immediately kowtowed on the bed and apologized, ”I'm sorry! The Dragon Emperor had disappeared in my home! We have been searching for him nonstop since his disappearance, but we haven't had any luck!”
The Dragon King mistook the old man as someone the Royal Dragon Family had sent because the Dragon Emperor hasn't returned to his original home.
”Tell me, why do you call him the 'Dragon Emperor'? And what does he look like?” The old man asked the Dragon King even though he already asked the Fairy Empress, as he wanted to confirm the information.
”Why? He was wearing an authentic pair of Golden Dragon Robes, he had a Dragon Spatial Ring, and he can even use Dragon's Gaze!” The Dragon King responded.
And he continued, ”As for his appearance, he was a young man with long black hair and brown eyes. His face also looked pure and kind.”
The old man silently pondered, 'They say he's a Dragon Emperor, but that's only because of his treasures. It doesn't really prove that he's a Dragon Emperor. Anybody can acquire the Golden Dragon Robe and the Dragon Spatial Ring in the upper heavens if they really try. As for his Dragon's Gaze… The Master and the Dragon Ancestor were like brothers, it wouldn't be weird at all if the Dragon Ancestor taught him Dragon's Gaze.'
”You said this Dragon Emperor suddenly disappeared, is that correct?”
”Yes, that is correct. I left him in one of our guest rooms to rest, and when I went to check on him later, he was already gone.”
”And you have no idea where he could have gone?”
”Unfortunately. We have searched everywhere, but we couldn't find him, almost as though he never existed in the first place—”
