Chapter 1470: Chapter 1470: Do You Understand Now?
Jiang Weiqiang was taken aback, furrowing his brows slightly, and said, "But when it’s necessary, she will definitely support me. You know, her situation is very special. Since I chose her back then, and it was with her support that I was able to get to where I am today..."
Zhang Chujia said indifferently, "But she can’t even give you offspring."
Jiang Weiqiang furrowed his brows slightly and said, "What do you mean by that? Do you want me to change my Mount Dragon? Do you want Lan to become my Mount Dragon? That’s impossible. She won’t agree to it, and neither will Zhong Zhichang and the others. Besides, she’s still too weak now."
Zhang Chujia shook her head and said, "Of course not. I will first recognize her as my foster daughter. The parents’ mandate, the words of the matchmaker. Do you understand?"
Jiang Weiqiang stared at his mother with wide eyes, "But I’m so much older than her... This..."
"Is she not beautiful or is her bloodline not strong? If she were to give birth to offspring for you, wouldn’t the inheritance of her bloodline also have a part of you? If she becomes your wife, whether you rule the Dragon Clan or she does in the future, what’s the difference? As the Sky Dragon Leader, you hold a revered position. The women of the clan have always been there for you to command as you wish. Can’t you bear to lose face just a little? Have you thought about how, if she becomes your wife, Zhong Zhichang and the others would think? They could swallow any bitterness they had to. All the benefits she brings would be yours."
Jiang Weiqiang was truly stunned. He had never thought in this direction, but listening to his mother’s words now, he suddenly felt as if all the problems seemed to resolve themselves under these circumstances.
Zhang Chujia said calmly, "So, now you not only cannot suppress her, nor can you give her pressure. Instead, you need to help her, even better than Zhong Zhichang and the others. Treat her like a dear younger sister. Don’t let her resent you. Understand what I mean?"
"But what about over in the Dragon Realm?" Jiang Weiqiang said with a bitter smile.
Zhang Chujia said indifferently, "That’s your matter. You handle it yourself. As a person in power, now as the federation’s leader, you should know how to make choices for consolidating your position, for your family, for your power and future."
Jiang Weiqiang’s eyes flickered with complex light as Zhang Chujia waved her hand, "Alright, I’m tired. The Dragon Horse Grand Auction is about to begin. This is also your time to perform. Although you’ve grown older, use your youthful methods for me. I permit you to be shameless for once."
Jiang Weiqiang’s mouth twitched, shameless? Shameless in chasing girls? He, the leader of the Dragon Horse Federation, the Sky Dragon Leader!
"Mom, let me go back and think first. Your words have made my mind a bit chaotic. There’s no need to rush immediately, nor make it too obvious, otherwise Zhong Zhichang and the others will become suspicious."
Zhang Chujia said indifferently, "How you specifically operate is your matter. I’ve already told you what is the situation for maximizing benefits. But no matter what you do, if you want me to live longer, don’t touch her until she reaches Ultra Divine Level. Each time she evolves, her bloodline will help extend my lifespan a bit. Perhaps, that day might indeed come."
"I understand."
...
Sky Dragon Plaza.
Just at the break of dawn, in the sky above the mighty Sky Dragon Plaza, the dragon roars are already echoing, with giant dragons circling back and forth in the sky, displaying their vast bodies and overwhelming might.
The outskirts of Sky Dragon Plaza have long been crowded with people. A huge high platform was built on the north side of Sky Dragon Plaza, facing south.
On either side of the high platform, six giant dragons guard it, emanating strong dragon presence.
In front of the high platform, a total of one hundred and eight Sky Horse Clan people demonstrate their self body, holding Long Spears, standing guard.
The seats in the front row are spacious and comfortable armchairs, with separate partitions. The seats extend backward in a tiered arrangement, with a total of forty thousand seats arranged in different regions. Undoubtedly, the farther back the seats are, the worse their relative quality. The furthest ones couldn’t even clearly see the situation on the stage.
This is not like the Douluo Federation with high-tech means, the Dragon Horse Grand Auction follows the most traditional method of raising cards for bidding. Everyone has a numbered card. Moreover, the bidders in the front row have priority in bidding. Those who can sit in partitioned private boxes either hold revered status or lead a clan, making them among the most prominent figures of the Dragon Horse Federation.
The rising sun illuminated the massive temporary auction site, where the dragon roars in the sky continued unceasingly. The people in the periphery came mostly to witness the grand spectacle. The federation had long dispatched a large number of troops, all composed of strong combat species, maintaining order in the outskirts.
A bulletin had long been issued: anyone causing trouble at this auction would be dealt with temporarily by the military, and execution was permitted without mercy.
Now, since the Dragon Horse Federation has just been established, it is the crucial phase of integration. It is very likely that some races might come to create disturbances, to which the Dragon Horse Federation was fully prepared.
With so many super strong presences sitting in, to disrupt this auction unless the Mother of Deep Red came personally it would be impossible.
Below, at the center was a gigantic private box, larger than ten of the surrounding ones combined. There are two such mega boxes: one belongs to the Dragon Clan, the other naturally belongs to the Sky Horse Clan. This shows the status of the two great races.
The auction will last a full three days, as there are very many items to be auctioned. Many bidders had arrived early in the morning. The auction seating at Sky Dragon Plaza is truly extensive. According to the rules, once the auction begins, no one can walk around anymore and can only stay seated. During the auction, even going to the restroom is not allowed. Once left, it’s considered forfeiting the bid.
For the strong, this is naturally not a problem, as the impurities within their bodies can be dissolved with their own energy. But for the weak, this is not achievable. Hence, this is one of the bidding thresholds.
As members of the Sky Dragon Assembly, Lan Xuanyu and Bai Xiuxiu naturally don’t need to arrive so early, waiting until right before the auction started, a staff member came to notify them. Holding a silver Space Source Crystal, they handed it to Lan Xuanyu and Bai Xiuxiu.
With divine consciousness sweeping across the Space Source Crystal, spatial positioning completed. Silver light flickered, the next moment, Lan Xuanyu and Bai Xiuxiu were already at Sky Dragon Plaza.
Bursts of dragon roars resounded across the heavens and earth. The entire Sky Dragon Plaza and its surroundings saw the gathering of over a million from different races and bidders participating in the auction.
Lan Xuanyu and Bai Xiuxiu were surprised to discover that the place they appeared in was a private box. The box was very spacious, with a circle of seats lined in a semicircular manner, numbering over twenty, all wide, thick sofas. Various precious foods and drinks were placed on the table in front of them. Right in front was the auction stage, from their position, they could see the auction stage’s situation very clearly.
"We’re here?" Bai Xiuxiu asked Lan Xuanyu puzzledly.
Lan Xuanyu took her out of the box to look around, immediately confirming that their current location was at the best place in the entire auction hall. Undoubtedly, this was exclusive to the Dragon Clan, and likely exclusive to the Dragon Knights.
At this moment, there were no others in the box. They were the earliest to arrive.
"I don’t know, let’s wait and see, there’s no hurry to sit down." Lan Xuanyu had some judgments in his heart but was not in a rush to sit.
Just then, a superior Dragon Clan member came over, respectfully saying, "Lord Lan, Lady Xiuxiu, the two of you can take your seats now. Your seats are over here." Saying this, guiding them back into the box, their seats were at the side, near the edge.
