Chapter 1023 Azure Dragon Tribe (7)

?

The Azure Dragon Tribe head saw this and said with a smile, "I'm sure that you're all curious who this guest is."

He didn't get to the main point and beat around the bush like this, making them feel more and more anxious.

But this was all done on purpose.

After talking nonsense for a while, the Azure Dragon Tribe head finally said, "This is a friend who has come all the way here from the Lin Astral Empire."

As soon as the words "Lin Astral Empire" were said, there was a chill that ran down Qing Qiang's spine. As for everyone else though, they all revealed confused looks since they didn't remember their Azure Dragon Tribe being associated with the Lin Astral Empire.

So why would someone from the Lin Astral Empire suddenly show up here?

That is unless they figured out that the envoy that was sent came from him…

So Qing Qiang couldn't help becoming more and more nervous as he stared at this envoy cloaked figure.

Finally, he couldn't take it anymore and stood up to say, "Father, how are we certain that this is a real envoy from the Lin Astral Empire? They have no connections to us at all, so why would they suddenly send an envoy?"

Doing this was naturally very rude, but Qing Qiang had been forced into a corner and he had no other choice. If he didn't take the initiative now, when he was forced even further back into the corner, he wouldn't be able to do a thing.

So even if it was rude, he had to speak up now.

As soon as he spoke up, the three representatives from the Black Dragon Tribe, the Gold Dragon Tribe, and the Purple Dragon Tribe all backed him up.

While they didn't know what he was doing, they were certain that this "envoy" was definitely someone called by the Azure Dragon Tribe head. They couldn't let this envoy speak or it would be bad for them.

But the Azure Dragon Tribe head didn't panic when he saw this.

He just looked at the four of them with a smile on his face, just like he was watching a bunch of kids.

When the four of them saw this, they couldn't help feeling nervous.

They knew that the Azure Dragon Tribe head wouldn't look this way unless…he already had some kind of countermeasure to their arguments.

So they couldn't help feeling uneasy.

After their voices fell, the Azure Dragon Tribe head looked at Qing Qiang and said, "Are you done? Have you finished embarrassing our Azure Dragon Tribe yet?"

Qing Qiang's face turned red when he heard this.

Even if there was a power struggle, his father had never talked to him like this before. Even if there was a power struggle, his father had always treated him with respect, which was one of the things that he respected about his father even though they were on opposing sides.

Now that his father was suddenly speaking to him in this tone, he couldn't help feeling very strange.

But he couldn't back down now.

So Qing Qiang said, "Embarrassing our Azure Dragon Tribe? I'm protecting our Azure Dragon Tribe from those sneaky humans. How could that be considered embarrassing?"

Since he didn't know what the situation was, the only thing that he could do was stick to his guns. He always presented himself as someone who thought about the prosperity of their tribe, so he would use this to defend himself.

But it wasn't the Azure Dragon Tribe head who answered.

Instead, it was the cloaked figure who spoke.

"This young master of the Azure Dragon Tribe really is disappointing. Without even waiting to judge the situation, he charges in rashly without even thinking. If he were to take over as the head of the Azure Dragon Tribe, it really will be the end of the Azure Dragon Tribe." The cloaked figure said in a voice filled with disdain.

When he heard this, Qing Qiang's face turned completely red from anger out of shame.

But before he could respond to this cloaked figure, the Azure Dragon Tribe head said, "I apologize for this fool. I didn't raise him well."

Qing Qiang's face twisted when he heard this.

It was one thing if a random stranger insulted him, but when his own father said this about him, it really was hard for him to accept.

He puffed and huffed, looking like he was about to explode from his rage, but before he could…

The cloaked figure suddenly took out a token that had the word "Lin" on it and presented it to everyone.

When the crowd saw this, they couldn't help being shocked.

That was because there was no mistaking the aura that came from this token.

This was the aura of the Ruler Realm and this token was a representation of the Lin Astral Family.

That meant that this envoy was legitimate and was even sent by the Lin Astral Family.

This was not a small matter.

Qing Qiang's mouth froze and he immediately swallowed the words that he was about to say.

Even if he was a fool, he wouldn't go as far as insulting the representative of the Lin Astral Family to his face once he proved his identity. He could still get away with it if he played the previous things that he said as concern for the Azure Dragon Tribe, but…he knew that it wasn't as simple as that.

But there wasn't anything that he could really say in this situation.

After all, if he were to say anything, he would be revealing what he had done before…

So Qing Qiang could really feel the pressure that was being placed on him.

As for the three representatives from the war faction, they could tell that this situation wasn't good. They didn't know exactly what it was, but they could tell from Qing Qiang's expression that there was something that he knew that he wasn't telling them.

The three of them started exchanging glances and secret words, preparing for the worst case scenario.

After Qing Qiang settled, the Azure Dragon Tribe head continued as if nothing had happened, "This friend from the Lin Astral Empire is here for a simple matter that we'll be addressing today. This is also why I've invited the friends from the seven other tribes here."

As they heard this, the war faction representatives all knitted their brows.

But on the other side, the four from the peace faction also couldn't help revealing surprised looks.

They had also been keeping an eye on the situation and helping the Azure Dragon Tribe's head as much as possible. However, they had never heard of anything like this before.

Seeing the looks on everyone's face, the Azure Dragon Tribe head looked like he had already expected this and he was even satisfied with this reaction. So he continued by saying, "I will now hand this over to the friend from the Lin Astral Empire."

The cloaked figure gave a nod to the Azure Dragon Tribe head before walking forward to take the stage.

Once he stood on the stage, he didn't say a word as he looked down in front of him. His eyes swept over the crowd in front of him before finally landing on Qing Qiang who was still standing there.

Of course, he couldn't see those eyes looking at him because of the cloak, but he could feel the gaze on him.

With this gaze on him, he felt even more unsettled as if his guess had been confirmed. It was almost as if this person was specifically targeting him…

After a long silence, the cloaked figure finally started speaking again, "Hello everyone, I'm here on behalf of the Lin Astral Empire to solve a problem that we're currently facing."

When they heard him use the word "problem", they couldn't help knitting their brows.

If the Lin Astral Empire was facing a problem, how was that related to their Dragon Race, or rather, how was it related to the Azure Dragon Tribe?

The cloaked figure didn't say anything even after seeing all these confused looks.

Instead, he just deliberately waited while looking in a certain direction.

This direction was in the direction of Qing Qiang.

Qing Qiang even almost felt like this person was waiting and giving him a chance to confess.

But Qing Qiang would never do anything like that.

Even if he was beaten to death, he would take this secret to his grave.

So he just firmly stared back at this cloaked figure.

Seeing that Qing Qiang didn't show any sign of remorse or repentance, the cloaked figure no longer waited and said, "Just a few weeks ago, there was an envoy sent by the Dragon Race that came to our Lin Astral Empire."

As soon as he said this, everyone couldn't help revealing shocked looks.

That was because they had no idea what he was talking about!

They had never heard of their Dragon Race sending an envoy to the Lin Astral Empire before.

In fact, most of these tribes had never had any dealings with the Lin Astral Empire.

The only thing that they could remember was sending their congratulations to the Lin Astral Empire over their new heir.

But for something like this to happen during the period where the new heir had appeared…

It was almost as if someone was targeting their Dragon Race…or it might be someone from their Dragon Race that was having thoughts about the Lin Astral Empire.

The representatives from the seven tribes couldn't help looking at each other as this thought passed through their minds.
