Zhang Kuohai said in a deep voice, "Just now, after the continuous battles in Dragon Mound, with Dragon Without a Leader and Dragon Soul reappearing, I fear... I fear that Li Xinglie will use these two events to absolve himself of blame and push all the responsibility onto you!"
"What? He..."
Zhang Kuohai sighed heavily, "All the elders and clan leaders know that you are sealed with Dragon Soul, which is a very unstable factor that could erupt at any moment. And now, with Li Mo Yuan dead, the battles in Dragon Mound ongoing, and both Dragon Without a Leader and Dragon Soul appearing simultaneously... and the dragon head dying an untimely death, anyone would think that it was your Dragon Soul that revived and came to Dragon Mound to harm the dragon head!"
Wang Long was taken aback and then said, "No... With you here, you can completely prove my innocence..."
Zhang Kuohai forced a bitter smile, glanced at Serpent Clan Leader and Jiang Xue, and shook his head. "What kind of person is Li Xinglie? After tonight, he will surely spread rumors about my relationship with Azure Spirit. Given my experience in the Dragon City War and my connection with Serpent Clan Leader, do you think anyone in Dragon City will believe me?"
For a moment, the entire world seemed to fall silent again.
Wang Long had never thought about these things before, but at this moment he suddenly felt a chill run through him, trembling uncontrollably.
Jiang Xue suddenly broke the silence and said solemnly, "So... you are my father?!"
Zhang Kuohai turned around to look at Jiang Xue's still cold and beautiful face and sighed deeply. "Yes, it has truly been hard on you all these years..."
Serpent Clan Leader sneered, "Do you think you have the right to say that?"
Zhang Kuohai suddenly spoke in a serious tone, "And what about you? Do you consider yourself a good mother?"
"I... You! My whole life has been ruined because of you!"
Jiang Xue coldly interrupted them both, "Stop arguing..." After saying this, she resolutely turned away and took Wang Long's hand.
Wang Long forced a smile at Jiang Xue and bent down to lift the dragon head's body. He said to Zhang Kuohai, "No matter what happens, I must take the dragon head's body back for a proper burial."
Zhang Kuohai sighed and took a deep breath. "Alright, I will accompany you. Regardless of the outcome after this matter, even if I can no longer stand in Dragon City, so be it!"
He glanced at Serpent Clan Leader as if asking for permission.
"I..." The clan leader's face turned pale as he sighed, "I should return to the Serpent Clan first... Jiang Xue, you..."
Jiang Xue stubbornly shook her head. The clan leader sighed again, turned his back, and slowly left.
By the time the three returned to Dragon City, it was already bright outside. However, in front of the Ten Thousand Dragon Hall, there was a cacophony of voices; all the heads of families and elders seemed to be waiting for something.
Although the fierce battle in Dragon Mound last night was far away, those high-ranking elders could still feel its intensity.
The appearance of the Dragon King and the Dragon Soul, two unparalleled Fierce Beasts, sent tremors deep within everyone's souls.
Yet, with only Li Mo Yuan's corpse and a few words from Li Xinglie, no one could be certain that Wang Long's sealed Dragon Soul had broken free and killed the Dragon Head who was in closed-door cultivation.
It wasn't until Wang Long approached the Ten Thousand Dragon Hall, holding the corpse of the Dragon Head, that the noise in the hall suddenly ceased. Everyone's gaze was fixated on the body Wang Long held in his arms.
"What is this..."
"Dragon Lord, he..."
"Silence! Quiet!" A loud shout rang out, causing everyone to stop their chatter and look towards the speaker.
Wang Long looked up and saw a familiar yet unfamiliar figure.
It was Wang Yuanxian speaking.
"The sudden death of the Dragon Head has thrown Dragon City into turmoil. This is a moment for all elders to unite and face this crisis together! Heads of families, elders, follow me into the Ten Thousand Dragon Hall for a meeting!"
Wang Yuanxian shouted, and everyone exchanged glances before following him inside.
Wang Long glanced over and saw Li Xinglie coldly looking at him, a barely noticeable sneer appearing at the corner of his mouth as he followed the crowd inside.
"Eight Divisions of Heavenly Dragons, step forward and take charge of the situation!"
Wang Yuanxian commanded, and the heads of the four great families along with the elders of the four major departments stepped forward simultaneously.
Li Mo Yuan was dead, and at this moment, his brother Li Mohai temporarily took his place as the new Li Family Head.
Meanwhile, Wang Yuanxian was seated in the position of the Wang Family Head.
At this moment, Wang Long finally understood that the Wang family did not lack a family head; rather, he had always been present beside him, yet few had noticed his existence.
Wang Yuanxian, Li Mohai, Zhang Minghan, Liu Huaiyang! The leaders of the Four Great Families sat together on the left side.
Wang Chengding, Li Xinglie, Zhang Kuohai, Liu Hongchuan! The four great elders of the major departments sat together on the right side.
With the Dragon Head gone, the Eight Divisions of Heavenly Dragons now represented the final decision of the entire Dragon City.
"Elder Li, please tell us what happened last night!" Wang Yuanxian said loudly.
The many elders fell silent and began to listen to him recount the events.
Wang Long tried several times to erupt in anger but was firmly held back by Jiang Xue, forcing himself to endure it.
Li Xinglie was highly respected in Dragon City and had risen alongside the Dragon Head as two new stars. He was also the grand elder of Dragon Tooth and had made significant contributions in repelling the Serpent Legion a few days prior.
Naturally, no one dared to refute his words, especially since what he said was reasonable. The terrifying might of Dragon Without a Leader and Dragon Soul could be felt by everyone present.
His words pointed directly to how Wang Long's Dragon Soul had suddenly erupted from within him, seeking revenge for being sealed over a decade ago. It controlled Wang Long's mind and engaged in a fierce battle with the Dragon Head. Although both he and Li Mo Yuan arrived in time and the Dragon Head used such a supreme artifact as Dragon Without a Leader, they ultimately could not withstand the overwhelming power of Dragon Soul, leading to both Li Mo Yuan and the Dragon Head meeting their demise.
Although everyone had doubts in their hearts, they couldn't help but nod secretly, feeling that his words were coherent and not unreasonable.
Wang Yuanxian's face turned pale upon hearing this, but he said nothing more. He turned to Wang Long and asked, "So, do you have anything to say?!"
Wang Long suddenly stood up, angrily pointing at Li Xinglie and exclaimed, "He is lying! He is completely talking nonsense and fabricating lies! It is him and the Li Family; they colluded with external forces, not only secretly conspiring with the Serpent Clan to rebel but also colluding with the Divine Might General under the Human Emperor, intending to overthrow the entire Dragon City!"
Upon hearing this, everyone was in an uproar, shaking their heads in disbelief.
Clearly, compared to Wang Long's accusations, people were more willing to believe Li Xinglie; Wang Long's claims were not only abrupt but also lacked substantial evidence.
However, he continued unabated, recounting everything that had happened last night in detail.
During this time, everyone shook their heads in skepticism regarding various details of his account.
When he finished speaking, the entire Ten Thousand Dragon Hall fell silent, with no one voicing support.
Zhang Kuohai sighed lightly and stood up, saying, "I was present at that time; I can stake my life as a guarantee that every word Wang Long said is true!"
Li Xinglie sneered and replied, "Zhang Kuohai, do you think I don't know about your matters?"
