Chapter 1387 The Rising Dragon Platform
Seeing that everyone was worried about him, Long Wu was quite moved. To put everyone at ease, he smiled slightly, his eyes shining with confidence.
“I am well aware of the difficulties involved, but how can I know if I can succeed if I don’t try? Besides, Lu Chen has already prepared a foolproof plan for me.”
Hearing this, everyone turned their attention to Lu Chen, who was standing to the side. He wore a smile, looking confident and composed. Clearly, this was all part of his plan.
"Lu Chen, do you have any ideas?" Zhang Chuxuan couldn't help but ask, his tone full of anticipation.
Lu Chen slowly raised his head, his gaze deep and mysterious. "It's actually very simple, just one word—kill. If even one person dares to object, just kill them. If a group of people object, then kill them all. I refuse to believe that this matter cannot be accomplished."
Everyone was stunned upon hearing this, never expecting that Lu Chen's method would be like this.
Li Baichuan stared wide-eyed, his face filled with disbelief; Zhang Chuxuan frowned, seemingly weighing the consequences of such extreme measures; Li Yue looked worried, gently biting her lower lip.
"This...this is a bit too radical, isn't it?" Li Baichuan couldn't help but ask after thinking it over, his voice trembling slightly. "Won't what we're doing cause even greater chaos?"
Zhang Chuxuan nodded in agreement, saying, "Yes, Lu Chen, while doing this might solve the problem, it will also create countless enemies. If not handled properly, it could bring even more trouble."
Lu Chen smiled slightly, a cold glint in his eyes. "Sometimes, only the most direct and decisive way can solve problems. You must know that in this world of cultivation, the law of the jungle is an eternal rule. If anyone blocks our path, then we must kill them without hesitation."
His words made everyone ponder. Although they felt uneasy, they had to admit that what Lu Chen said was not entirely unreasonable.
The Ascension Platform is located in the core area of the Dragon Clan's territory, perched atop a towering mountain peak surrounded by majestic peaks, where the swirling clouds and mist create an atmosphere reminiscent of a fairyland.
The stone platform is made of ancient bluestone, and its surface is covered with complex runes. These runes not only symbolize the history and glory of the dragon race, but also contain powerful protective arrays.
Ascension Platform is not only an important place for the Dragon Clan, but also the venue for the election of the Dragon Clan Chiefs throughout history.
As is customary, the dragon race holds an election ceremony every 100,000 years to elect a new clan leader.
Of course, if any unexpected events occur during this period, a new clan leader will need to be elected. For example, this election was held because of Ao Tian's disappearance.
At this moment, elders from various branches of the dragon race had gathered on the Dragon Ascension Platform. Dressed in magnificent attire and with solemn expressions, they awaited the upcoming election ceremony.
These elders represent different bloodlines of the dragon race, each branch having its own unique characteristics and advantages.
The dragon race is divided into nine major branches: Ancestral Dragon, Azure Dragon, Black Dragon, Silver Dragon, Golden Dragon, Yinglong, Jiaolong, Panlong, and Chilong.
Each branch has its unique attributes and abilities, forming a rich and diverse power system for the dragon race.
As the election ceremony drew near, the atmosphere on the Ascension Platform grew increasingly tense. Powerful figures from all walks of life took to the stage, showcasing their strongest abilities in an attempt to win the elders' approval.
The air was thick with the smell of gunpowder. Everyone knew that this election was not only about their own fate, but could also affect the future of the entire dragon race.
At this moment, Qingfeng, the leader of the Azure Dragon Clan, stood in the center of the Ascending Dragon Platform, his figure appearing exceptionally tall and imposing in the setting sun.
He had already defeated more than a dozen other dragon leaders. At this moment, Qingfeng's eyes revealed confidence and joy, as if everything was within his expectations.
Barring any unforeseen circumstances, he will be the biggest winner in this election and become the new patriarch of the entire dragon clan.
The people from various tribes below the stage all looked at him with awe, and some even began to whisper among themselves that the new tribal chief would definitely be Qingfeng.
Qingfeng smiled slightly, secretly pleased with himself. He knew that his efforts had finally paid off; years of hard training and honing his skills had been for this moment.
However, just as a respected elder stood up to announce the final result, the entire room suddenly fell silent.
The old man's gaze swept over each clansman, finally settling on Qingfeng, and he slowly said, "Everyone, after many rounds of fierce competition, we have found the most suitable leader. The new clan leader is... Qing..."
Just as the old man was about to utter the name "Qingfeng," an untimely voice suddenly rang out: "Wait!"
This sudden sound instantly shattered the solemn atmosphere, leaving everyone stunned.
Everyone looked in the direction of the sound and saw two figures teleporting onto the Dragon Ascension Platform. They were Long Wu and Lu Chen. As for Li Yue, Yun Xi, Zhang Chuxuan, and the others, they were mixed in with the surrounding crowd, which was for their safety.
"It's you. What are you doing here in my Dragon Clan?" Qingfeng frowned and asked coldly after recognizing Lu Chen.
"Who are you? How dare you run wild in my dragon territory?" an elder of the dragon clan said in a deep voice, his tone clearly showing displeasure.
"Long Wu, what are you doing? Get down here right now!" The leader of the Black Dragon Clan shouted loudly after recognizing Long Wu.
On the Rising Dragon Platform, the atmosphere was so tense it seemed to freeze. Qingfeng frowned, his gaze fixed intently on the suddenly appearing Lu Chen.
However, Lu Chen seemed unconcerned about Qing Feng's emotional fluctuations. He cupped his hands slightly, a faint smile on his face, and said, "Everyone, I have come here today to witness the birth of your new clan leader."
Hearing this, Qingfeng's brows relaxed slightly, a hint of doubt flashing in his eyes. Perhaps he thought Lu Chen had come to congratulate him on his victory. But then, Lu Chen's next words instantly ignited his anger.
“But I believe that the new patriarch of your dragon clan should be my friend Long Wu, not someone else,” Lu Chen continued, his tone calm yet firm, as if he were stating an indisputable fact.
The audience was stunned by his words, then erupted into whispers. Some were surprised, some were angry, and many more were filled with curses.
Qingfeng's face turned ashen. He snorted coldly, a hint of murderous intent flashing in his eyes as he looked at Lu Chen: "Who do you think you are, daring to spout such nonsense here?"
Just then, a tall and imposing figure stepped forward—it was Long Wu. He said loudly, "That's right, I also want to compete for the position of clan leader. Does anyone have any objections?"
