Chapter 272 - Arrival of the Fire Dragon God

n“Do you think he will come back?” asked Darlene.
nHewlett did not know how to answer. After a long silence, he finally shook his head.
n
n
n“I don’t know.”
n“Last week, there was a bard who came to Bulo, reciting an epic, the legendary story of the Platinum Throne, the first sun-level genius on the pillar of stars, the youngest and most powerful throne in history, saving the entire continent from the devil disaster. Even the Silver Dragon King and the Dark Throne were cut off by him.”
n“That person’s name is also called Joelson Edward.”
nHewlett’s eyes could not help but reveal a deep shock. He whispered, “I really don’t know. Is it just the same name, or is it really him?”
n
n
nDarlene did not seem to hear Hewlett’s words. She said from the side, “I know. He will definitely come back.”
nDarlene stroked her long dark purple hair. She had once cut a strand of hair and given it to Joelson.
nIn her daze, Darlene seemed to see…
nIn the distance, the figure of a giant dragon was flying out from the sunset and approaching quickly.
n
n
nDarlene thought her eyes were playing tricks on her. She looked carefully and came closer and closer.
nMore people noticed the giant dragon and all looked over in a daze.
nBecause of the existence of the Fire Dragon God, the Akenshi clansmen yearned for the giant dragon more than they feared it.
nThe giant dragon was too beautiful. Its red scales were flickering under the sunset’s rays, like the finest rubies.
nThere was also its huge and slender body, combining power and beauty.
n“It’s Lord Fire Dragon God’s giant dragon!”
n
n
nSome children cried out in joy.
nMore children cheered, “Fire Dragon God, Lord Fire Dragon God is back!”
nThe dragon was closer and everyone could see it clearly.
nOn the back of the dragon, there was really a young figure.
nEveryone was excited.
nThat figure really looked like the Fire Dragon God statue in the middle of the tribe!
nDarlene’s eyes became brighter and brighter, and a layer of mist gradually appeared.
nHewlett’s eyes also widened. Finally, he couldn’t help but shout, “It’s Joelson. Oh, no, it’s the Fire Dragon God. Lord Fire Dragon God has returned!”
n
n
nThe dragon flew to the sky above the Akenshi tribe and looked down.
nThe terrifying aura set off a huge wind pressure, blowing the dust on the ground.
nAfter the shock, no one was afraid. Instead, they cheered and jumped happily.
nThis was probably the first time that Du Lu had met a ‘bug’ that was not afraid of him.
nJoel slowly walked down from Du Lu’s back.
nDarlene looked at the man in front of her that she missed every day.
nHe stood tall and straight, his face was more handsome, and his back was wider. He had completely lost the last bit of his youth, and his entire body exuded the dignity of a superior.
nHowever, Darlene did not care about this. She quickly rushed towards Joelson and pounced into his arms, as if she wanted to squeeze her entire body into his body.
nWho said that dark elves were cold?
nJoelson smiled bitterly but his eyes became gentle. He gently hugged Darlene’s thin body and gently smelled the faint fragrance of flowers in her hair.
nWhen he finally let go, Darlene’s face was already full of tears. She glared at Joelson and said, “You’re finally back. In another year, I would have hunt you down.”
nJoelson smiled and didn’t say anything. He held her hand.
nHe turned his head and looked to his side. A large group of Akenshi tribesmen had already knelt down.
n
n
nThe blind Grand Elder was still alive. He was helped out and moved his empty eyes to Joelson. He said respectfully and joyfully, “What I saw is happening!”
nThe dragon’s might of Du Lu, who was at the peak of the saint level, and the powerful aura of Joelson had been continuously and deeply shocking the people of the Akenshi tribe.
nAt this moment, the image of Joelson in their memories became more and more vivid.
nIt was deeply imprinted in their bones and they worshipped him as a god.
nThe children widened their pitch-black eyes and hid in a corner to look at Joelson.
nTheir eyes were filled with respect, admiration, and joy. They wanted to approach but were also afraid.
nThe Fire Dragon God!
nIt really was the Fire Dragon God!
nThe Fire Dragon God that they cheered for every day was now standing in front of them. It was like a dream.
nDarlene was the same as five years ago but she seemed to have lost a lot of weight.
nThe elves had a long lifespan. It was difficult for time to leave too many traces on their bodies.
nOn the contrary, Hewlett, the leader of the Sword and Rose Mercenary Group, had experienced a lot of vicissitudes. He looked completely like a mature uncle.
nAfter letting the Akenshi people go, Joelson and the former members of the mercenary group reminisced.
n“Platinum epic.”
nHewlett held a stack of parchment that he copied from the bard and asked curiously, “Are you the one I’m talking about, Joelson?”
nThe others also looked at him curiously.
nJoelson nodded slightly. “Many things have happened in the past few years.”
nAfter being personally acknowledged by Joelson, everyone’s bodies trembled, and the expressions on their faces became even more respectful.
nThe throne.
nSuch a distant existence was actually standing in front of them right now.
nHoliness was already far enough for the middle-class people, not to mention the divine domain above the saint-rank.
nMost people had never even heard of it.
nHowever, they at least knew about the demonic calamity in the past few years. Who knew how many saint-rank powerhouses had fallen? Yet, Joelson had actually managed to turn the situation around by relying on his own strength.
nIt was too shocking.
nJoelson swept a glance at everyone. Their strength had increased to different degrees.
nHewlett and Darlene had both broken through to the level of a ninth-rank knight. They were only one step away from reaching the saint-rank.
nAfter thinking for a while, a few dozen magic crystals appeared in his hands.
n“These are the combat aura and magic books I got from the land of heritage. They should be of help to you. The Akenshi Tribe needs these too.”
nEveryone looked excited.
nHewlett, in particular, had completely exhausted his potential. It was almost impossible for him to take another step forward. If there were no other opportunities, he would be stuck at tier-9 for the rest of his life.
nNow, the opportunities were right in front of him.
n“Also, the Spring of Life.”
nJoelson took out the remaining Spring of Life from the Elf Forest and gave it to everyone.
n“The Spring of Life!”
nDarlene’s eyes were wide from surprise. She said in a low voice, “The holy relic of the Elf Clan, why do you have it?”
n“This is the purpose of my return.”
nJoelson looked at Daliana and said seriously, “I want to take you back to my hometown, on the other side of the central continent.”
nAfter sacrificing his normal lifespan, Joelson found that the intimacy between him and the Dark Demon Dragon had increased a lot.
nThis discovery surprised him.
nThe Spring of Life could increase his lifespan and it could allow the elf prophet to live for more than two thousand years.
nIf he had a large amount of the Spring of Life, would he be able to quickly control the Dark Demon Dragon’s power?
nThen, he needed to return to the Southern Region as soon as possible.
