474 Laexs Big Brother (2/2)
---
Laex was on the sixth Level at the moment, one above Krune. He went up one cultivation level in the past six months, being now in the 1st Stage of the Divine Path Realm. Although it was only a stage, it was a Realm Breakthrough, so his power increased a lot more than a breakthrough in the same Realm's stages.
He had been worried about Liriu just like Tiane and Ruik, but even after looking for information everywhere between the cultivators and demon beasts, he didn't find any clue. Without any other choice, he could just go up and expect to meet the others in the 10th Level.
However, while he was following the flow of Godly Energy, he ended bumping into another Dragon Race member. Worst of all, it was someone he knew.
”Drovax!”
Laex knew this Dragon from the time he stayed in the Dragon Race. He was 21 years older than Laex and had a very serious personality. He often gave training to the young Dragons in the Dragon Race territory, and Laex still remembered just how spartan he was.
Due to Drovax's Divine Sense, he noticed Laex's presence first. Although Laex had a different appearance, Drovax would never mistake his aura.
”Laex!”
Laex, of course, turned around and fled straight away. He really didn't want to talk get involved with this guy. There was nothing more than bad memories when it comes to Drovax.
”Laex, you better stop right there! If you don't, don't blame me for being nasty!”
”Who the hell would stop? Shoo, shoo! You are one of the last Dragon I want to see in my life!”
”Hmph! Don't say that I didn't warn you.”
Drovax speed suddenly increased, and the distance between them began to reduce. Drovax was already in the 4th Stage of the Divine Path Realm, and he was mainly focused on Wind Element and Laws. That was also why he could be so fast.
”Shit!”
Laex put even more effort into the running, but Drovax still caught him up in the end.
”Dragon Stomp!”
Boom!
Laex's body was hit, and he crashed against the ground. However, Drovax wasn't really trying to hurt Laex, so Laex only received a few bruises. First of all, neither of them turned back into their Dragon Forms, so it was obvious that they weren't going all out.
Drovax then landed beside Laex while looked at that ragged body on the ground.
”I told you to wait, didn't I? Do you perhaps want to receive my punishments like in the past? I still have my Dragon Rod with me, you know?”
That Rod was made specially to be used against young dragons who didn't follow the orders. Although it didn't cause any injury to the body, it inflicted a terrible pain. With Laex's personality, one can already imagine just how many times he was spanked by it. Those were real, painful memories.
Laex felt a chill on his back when he heard that and immediately kneeled in front of Drovax.
”Ancestor Drovax, there is no need for such seriousness. This lowly one was just showing how fast he became after receiving your training in the past. How could I really run in front of my great big brother?”
”Hmph! If I didn't know you, perhaps I would fall for this trick.”
Drovax's eyes then got serious before entering the main topic.
”I will not ask how the hell you got a slot to enter the Holy Land. However, the Dracophoenix is another story. Speak, where is it?”
Laex then looked away as he spoke.
”Oh! That? Did you see the video I sent Uncle? I'm being controlled by that Dracophoenix, so I really can't tell you anything, it is his orders.”
Drovax then took out a rod that was covered in azure scales from his spatial ring.
”Who the hell would believe that you are under control with that trash performance?! I see, so you don't want to talk. Don't worry, I will make you change your mind. Just so that you know, the elders already asked a few Divinity Realm cultivators and Demon Beasts with Destiny Major Divine Souls for help. After putting their efforts together, they were able to confirm that the Dracophoenix was really alive. It seems like you really know him, too, so you better be prepared.”
Laex's expression changed when he saw that azure Rod, but he was still adamant about not saying anything.
”I already did my part and told the Dragon and Phoenix Races that the Dracophoenix existed. My duty to you and the elders is completed. But other than that, I won't say anything else. You guys will have to find him by yourselves.”
Seeing Laex's determined expression made Drovax hesitate a bit. He had never shown such a face in front of him in the past. But he soon came back to himself.
”Whether you want or not, you will talk, even if I have to force it out of you.”
