Chapter 1333 - Tribulation (1) (1/2)
After learning everything he could about the Bai from Chenglei, Dyon abruptly opened the cage doors and left. Chenglei couldn't understand what Dyon meant by this, didn't he intend to keep them under lock and key until they repented?
He stood, walking to the opened cage door and slowly stretched his arm out. Half of him was cynical and believed that Dyon was playing a cruel joke. With the seals in them, they couldn't leave even if the roof above their heads was torn open as long as Dyon didn't want it. But, surprisingly, even after his arm stretched over the entrance line, he didn't feel any rejection coming from within.
Complex emotions flooded Chenglei's c.h.e.s.t as his brows furrowed.
The path before them was laid b.a.r.e and obvious. They could either leave on their own and never follow the path of Dragons again. Or, they could remain here and wait for Dyon to come back. If they chose the latter, their futures would be bright. At the very least, they would have a chance at reaching their full potentials.
Chenglei understood that they had no right to hate Dyon for not undoing their seals before letting them go. They had lost their dragon bloodline due to a war they chose to take a part in. What obligation did Dyon have to unseal them and awaken his constitution? He had none.
Seeing the paths laid out before him, Chenglei's will steeled as he decisively stepped out of the cage, followed by hundreds of his clansmen. The moment they did so, the last remnants of the seals within them disappeared like the wind.
'The Daiyu Clan will be rebuilt by my hands. I am a Dragon! I would never rely on another.'

Dyon immediately sensed what happened, but he didn't really have any reaction to it. Sure, it would be great to have an army of Dragons at his back. Pure blooded Dragons like the Daiyu, despite the fact their Dragon Souls were only of the bronze realm, were incredibly rare. Although Dragons were promiscuous and hate high fertility rates, that was only when they lowered themselves to the level of other species. When Dragons mated with their supreme grade beast counterparts, the story was very different.
Plus, Dyon had the means to improve even Dragon bloodlines. Not only did he have access to an entire world's – the limits of which he didn't currently understand – Primordial Energy, he also had millions of Reverse Scales acc.u.mulated from the Daiyu Tombs.
Although it would be impossible to raise them to the Gold realm even with this many reverse scales, the Silver realm was definitely a solid possibility. Such a support for his Kingdom would be astounding.
One had to remember that Dragons were the second ranked among the quadrants not because of their inferiority to the Star Clan. In terms of raw battle power, no one could match the Dragon Species, even though their bloodlines, much like that of seemingly every other tribe, clan and sect, were also declining. Their physical prowess was mind-boggling and their energy stamina was endless.
