1202 War

"What will you even get out of this?! Tell me, Patriarch Cui!" Xi Meili continued to shout at him.

Patriarch Cui nonchalantly shrugged as he responded, "Nothing much. Just some of the Xi Family's treasures, a third of the Ancient Dragon City, and Xi Mingze."

"What? My mother?" Xi Meili had a baffled look on her face.

Patriarch Cui grinned at her reaction, and he clarified, "I have fancied her for a while now. In fact, I've had my eyes on her even before she met your father. Unfortunately, I was not strong enough to attract her attention."

"And you consider yourself a dragon?! What a disgrace! You sully our race with your mere existence! Even a wild beast has more morals than you bastards!" Xi Meili stared at him with killing intent flowing from her eyes.

"As dragons, it is our nature to desire power— to rule over everything within our gaze." Patriarch Liang spoke with a stern look on his face, "Once we consume the Xi Family, we will become royalties through the Blood Cleansing Ceremony! After that, we will finally leave this prison of a world and conquer the outside world and its humans!"

"The Blood Cleansing Ceremony…?" Xi Meili muttered as she realized something. "So this is your real motive. You want to acquire the Dragon Ancestor's blood so that you will have a royal bloodline!"

"Everything else is merely a bonus." Patriarch Liang showed a grim smile.

"You will not get what you want." Xi Meili said with gritted teeth.

"Oh, is that so? And what are you going to do to stop me? Run from here and scramble back to your parents to tell them? If that's what you want to do, I won't stop you."

"What are you…" Xi Meili was speechless and doubtful that he would really let her leave just like that.

Patriarch Liang shrugged with an arrogant smug on his face, "I already told you. We're fully prepared to take on the Xi Family, so it won't matter what you do now. Why else would we be doing this so blatantly?"

"..."

As much as Xi Meili hated to admit it, Patriarch Liang was right. Although the Xi Family may have a decent chance of victory if they fought with the Azure Dragon Family, that did not account for the Emerald Dragon Family's assistance.

If the Azure Dragon Family and the Emerald Dragon Family worked together, the chances of the Xi Family winning was slim to none.

Naturally, this did not account for Yuan's participation, either.

Xi Meili knew that if Yuan assisted them, their chances of winning would rise significantly. However, she has no intention of forcing him to fight for her family, as she would not be able to forgive herself if he were to get hurt because of it.

"You could leave, but I wouldn't suggest it." Liang Xuan suddenly spoke, and he continued before Xi Meili could say anything, "If you leave now, your brother and father will surely die. However, if you stay here and become my woman, I will spare their lives."

"..."

After a moment of silence, Xi Meili suddenly sneered with a smile, "Sorry, but that's impossible."

"Impossible?" Liang Xuan frowned.
