Chapter 2470: Chapter 2466: Battle of Wits with the Dragon Ancestor (Thirty-eighth Update)_1

Dragon Ancestor wanted to ask something, and Yang Chen knew it all too well.

The other party must be trying to ask about everything inside the Twentieth Palace.

If he couldn’t answer this question well, then today, he would have to explain himself here, with no other possibilities.

There was no way around it, the Ice and Fire Sky Phoenix in the Twentieth Palace was too important for the entire Dragon Clan.

Let’s not talk about whether the Ice and Fire Sky Phoenix will later seek revenge against the Dragon Clan, even if the Ice and Fire Sky Phoenix doesn’t seek revenge, would these Dragon Clan members think so?

Definitely not.

Yang Chen’s heart was extremely uneasy, but his face remained as calm as ever.

Meanwhile, Dragon Ancestor gazed at Yang Chen with deep eyes, cunning and crafty!

It seemed calm on the surface, even praising Yang Chen numerous times, but deep down, he observed and scrutinized repeatedly, and his purpose couldn’t be more obvious.

First, flatter him until he feels proud, and when the time is right, deliver the fatal blow.

Luckily, Yang Chen wasn’t that easy to deal with. He remained calm without a ripple on his face, and patiently waited for Dragon Ancestor to ask the question.

"What did you encounter in the Twentieth Palace?" Dragon Ancestor asked.

Yang Chen put on a curious face: "I didn’t encounter anything in the Twentieth Palace."

"You didn’t encounter anything? That’s impossible." Dragon Ancestor clearly didn’t believe it.

Yang Chen scratched his head, equally puzzled: "I was very curious about this matter as well. I went to the Twentieth Palace with the purpose of finding a strong enough Dragon Soul to attach to me, but who would have known, I didn’t encounter anything."

Upon hearing these words, everyone’s mouths twitched awkwardly.

You thought the Dragon Souls of these two Late Boundaryless Stage Ancestors weren’t strong enough, chose to refine them instead of attaching them, and ran to the Twentieth Palace?

Now your greed has swallowed you up, and you haven’t gained anything, huh!

While they admired Yang Chen in their hearts, they still felt somewhat pleased with themselves.

Yang Chen continued to speak: "I wandered around the Twentieth Palace, but still didn’t see anyone."

He looked very wronged.

Inwardly, he cursed at the Ice and Fire Sky Phoenix.

It’s fine that the other party entered his body, but now he has to come up with excuses for it.

"Oh? You really didn’t encounter anything in the Twentieth Palace?" Dragon Ancestor asked.

"Really," Yang Chen said innocently.

Dragon Ancestor was half-convinced, but cold as ice on the surface. His expression darkened instantly: "Yang Chen, are you lying to me? I have been to the Twentieth Palace myself, and there is a terrifying creature there. How can you say that you didn’t encounter anything at all?"

All the other True Dragons turned pale.

Dragon Ancestor had been to the Dragon Soul Palace’s Twentieth Palace?

Yang Chen was also shocked in his heart.

Had Dragon Ancestor really been to the Twentieth Palace?

True or false?

Soon, Yang Chen calmed down!

Dragon Ancestor must be bluffing him! With some careful thought, it was clear. If Dragon Ancestor had truly been to the Twentieth Palace, he would directly mention the name of the Ice and Fire Sky Phoenix, so why say there was a terrifying creature?

It was clear that he didn’t know what was inside and was basing it solely on his conjecture.

Yang Chen knew all this, but still acted expressionless on the surface, putting on a puzzled appearance: "Dragon Ancestor, it seems that we encountered different things. I really didn’t encounter anything there. If there was anything, wouldn’t I be happy to attach it to me directly? I now feel very wronged. My trip to the Dragon Soul Palace was a waste."

The other True Dragons twitched the corners of their mouths.

Did you call this a wasted trip?

You took such a big advantage in the Dragon Soul Palace!

Now, Dragon Ancestor couldn’t tell if it was true or not. Yang Chen sounded so sincere that it was almost impossible to detect anything wrong.

However, Dragon Ancestor had lived for so many years, and he had seen all sorts of sly people.

At this moment, Dragon Ancestor didn’t believe Yang Chen right away but instead said, "I have the ability to judge whether it’s true or not, Yang Chen. Give up your resistance, and I will check your whole body. If you really didn’t encounter anything in the Dragon Soul Palace, I can detect it."

"This..." Yang Chen hesitated.

Dragon Ancestor might not have seen the Ice and Fire Sky Phoenix and probably didn’t know its existence like the Ice and Fire Sky Phoenix had said. However, the Inheritance from Dragon Ancestor must have pointed out that there was a terrifying existence within the Twentieth Palace.

After some thought, Yang Chen frowned inwardly, suspecting that the excuse he had chosen was not perfect. Despite more thinking, he found it impossible to come up with a more adequate excuse to cover it up.

But this excuse still had the potential to be misleading!

"I don’t know how well hidden the Ice and Fire Sky Phoenix is, but I hope Dragon Ancestor won’t discover anything. Otherwise, I’ll be in real trouble." Thoughts swirled in Yang Chen’s mind.

On the surface, he said, "Senior, everyone has their secrets..."

"Rest assured, I don’t care about your secrets. I just want to check if there are any creatures attaching to your body!" Dragon Ancestor calmly responded.

With a relieved expression, Yang Chen said, "Alright, senior, let’s do it."

He started to give up resistance, knowing there was no use in it, and that Dragon Ancestor was determined to inspect him.

At this moment, Dragon Ancestor’s internal power surged, instantly enveloping Yang Chen’s entire body...

Then, Yang Chen felt as if Dragon Ancestor had thoroughly seen through his entire body, a feeling he didn’t appreciate.

Obviously, Dragon Ancestor had used a powerful method. Yang Chen assumed that if there were even the slightest breath in his body, Dragon Ancestor would detect it with clarity.

It would be false to say that he wasn’t worried.

Yang Chen even silently clenched his sweat.

But to his surprise, after Dragon Ancestor inspected him once, he seemed as if he hadn’t detected anything.

Dragon Ancestor didn’t give up and examined him a second time but still didn’t find anything.

Yang Chen secretly rejoiced at this.

With what method did Ice and Fire Sky Phoenix hide itself? Even Dragon Ancestor, a Boundaryless Level existence, failed to detect it.

Where exactly did it hide?

As Yang Chen was puzzled, Dragon Ancestor’s face grew embarrassed.

He hadn’t detected anything at all.

Dragon Ancestor couldn’t help but feel a little humiliated, but after two inspections, further examinations would be unreasonable.

He coughed twice: "It seems that I misunderstood my young friend Yang Chen. As it turns out, you really didn’t encounter anything in the Twentieth Palace."

"Yeah, I’m puzzled as well. If I could just enter the Dragon Soul Palace again, that would be great. This time, I will cherish the opportunity and find a Dragon Soul to attach to me," Yang Chen said.

Dragon Ancestor’s mouth twitched a few times: "That’s impossible. Our Dragon Clan’s Dragon Soul Palace is generally not open to outsiders. Young friend Yang Chen, your one-time entry has already broken many rules. Entering it again would be difficult to justify."

Allow you to enter another time?

It would be foolish to let this demon enter again! The entire Dragon Soul Palace has been bled dry by your single entry. If you go in again, would it not be like letting a thief into a village and sweeping it clean?

Yang Chen only smiled, not seriously considering entering again. Seeing that the timing was about right, he said, "Haha, I understand. Since everyone has no more opinions about my being friends with Golden Claw, I will take my leave."
