Chapter 588: Soaring Dragon City, Military Camp Part 2 (1/2)
The father and son sat on a high grade sofa facing each other, and Ximen Nu asked, “Yu'er, is there a matter for you to return this time?”
Long Yi nodded his head and said, “Father, you should also roughly know the matters of the Dragon Race. Divine Dragon Clan and Demonic Dragon Clan are like fire and water, but because of the appearance of the Devouring Dragon Physique, they have reached an agreement and unified. After one month, those two clans will hold a Dragon Race Convention on Blue Waves Continent.”
Ximen Nu was a wise man. Upon hearing this matter, he immediately thought of the effects that would occur from holding the Dragon Race's Convention on Blue Waves Continent. He stood up and walked two laps around the imperial study. Suddenly looking at Long Yi, he said, “The matter of the Dragon Race reappearing in Blue Waves Continent is not a simple matter. This father has already experienced the destructive power of the Dragon Race. Can you be sure that Dragon Race is friendly?”
“Father, since your son has handled the matter, you can rest a.s.sured. The dragon with the Devouring Dragon Physique that will lead these two clans is my daughter and also your granddaughter named Niur,” Long Yi said with a smirk.
“Since that is the case, this father will be at ease. I will give this matter priority, and I will inform all races to gather at our Soaring Dragon City and extend the influence of this Dragon Race convention to the fullest. It would be best if we can sign a pact with the Dragon Race. Then, the position of our imperial Ximen Clan would consolidate even further, hahaha.” Ximen Nu was worthy of being a wily old fox that had fought in the political arena for decades. He immediately thought of plans, and feeling happy, he complacently laughed.
“Then, I will leave the arrangements of this matter to Father. I have already set up a transfer magic array on Divine Dragon Archipelago. In a few days, I will set up a transfer magic array on Demonic Dragon Archipelago too. At that time, Father can send some people to discuss with both the Dragon Clans,” Long Yi said with a smile.

The father and son arrived at an agreement about the matter of the Dragon Race convention. Then, they discussed the empire's current state of development as well as some other matters. Unknowingly, the sky had already gotten dark.
“Father, where are mother and those girls now?” Long Yi asked.
“The news has just come today. They went to Elven Forest to visit under the invitation of Elf Queen. Hehe, your mother has silently stayed cooped here for more than 20 years for us father and son. This time, I think we should let her have enough good time.” When speaking about Dongfang Wan, tender feelings overflowed in his eyes. She had quietly suffered for the entire clan. Because she was here, he had never needed to worry about a number of the clan's matters that were loaded with trivial details.
Long Yi smiled. Sure enough, it was not outside his expectations. Elven Forest was so beautiful that he feared they would be reluctant to return.
“Yu'er, stay here tonight. In any case, it is almost dark. You can go to the military camp to stroll around for a while,” Ximen Nu said to Long Yi.
Long Yi also didn't object to it. Speaking about it, it had already been a very long time since he had visited the military camp.
The sun sank into the horizon, leaving behind an afterglow. Long Yi went towards the east side of the city where Violent Dragon Legion was stationed. After going through the blood refinement, Violent Dragon Legion had already become the world-famous iron-blooded legion, especially the Unparalleled Battalion in it which only had roughly 20,000 soldiers. Whether in terms of individual combat power or actual war, no other troops could come close to them. Practically any soldiers would be very proud to enter the Unparalleled Battalion. Even the soldiers within the lowest rung of the Unparalleled Battalion gained respect wherever they went.
When Long Yi arrived outside the military camp, many soldiers just happened to be returning from a drill while shouting a slogan.
Long Yi smiled and stood at one side. The officer at the front clearly recognized Long Yi, this Lord Crown Prince and also the founder of Unparalleled Battalion. He was already divinized by the military camp.
“15th squad captain of Violent Dragon Legion's b.l.o.o.d.y Cavalry Regiment Yu Chengjie pays respect to Great General. Salute!” This officer agitatedly ran over to the front of Long Yi and reported in a loud voice, before saluting Long Yi as per military ritual. Hundreds of soldiers behind him also simultaneously stood at attention, realizing the man in front of them.
Long Yi returned the military salute. This was a rule of the army. In the military camp, only the military position was viewed, regardless of the n.o.ble peerage. Long Yi looked at this group of soldiers with satisfaction and said with a smile, “Captain Yu, what kind of drill were you doing just now?”
“Answering to the Great General, it was a 50-kilometer armed marathon. My 15th squad has completely fulfilled the task. Not a single one has fallen,” Yu Chengjie proudly replied in a loud voice.
“It seems the training course for your cavalry is new,” Long Yi commented with a smile.
“Replying to Great General, this is the new training course implemented by General Beitang two months ago. General Beitang asked us to become the most elite cavalry, and also become the most elite infantry when without a horse,” Yu Changjie threw out his chest and said loudly.
