After putting away Number One Under Heaven, Yuan turned to look at Jiao Zhenhai, who was sitting on the floor with a dazed look on his face, and said, "I apologize for the destruction of this place."
Jiao Zhenhai looked around with a dumbfounded look on his face before responding, "I-It's fine. As long as the treasures themselves aren't damaged."
"Thank you. Now then, about what you were trying to tell me about our offer…"
Jiao Zhenhai slowly stood up before speaking in a solemn tone, "I am willing to give you the Tear of the Azure Heavens for the Immortal Monarch's blood, but I want one more thing from you."
"What is it?"
"Help me defend my Azure Dragon Clan," said Jiao Zhenhai with a serious frown on his face.
"Defend the Azure Dragon Clan? What about you talking about?" Yuan raised an eyebrow, unaware of what the Second Elder said to Jiao Zhenhai through voice transmission.
Jiao Zhenhai immediately explained the situation.
"The Mystic Sea Dragon Clan, whom the elders have been working with, are coming here as we speak. The Second Elder said this to me right before his death through voice transmission. Without the Three Elders, our chances of defeating the Mystic Sea Dragon Clan are slim to none. However, with you—and your sword's assistance—we might be able to win."
Yuan didn't immediately respond. Zi Xuan had expended most of her energy just now and would probably take several weeks, if not months, to fully recover. If the Mystic Sea Dragon Clan showed up before she recovered, it might get a bit dangerous.
Of course, he still had Dragon Goddess Yeyou, but he wasn't sure how much she could actually do in her current state.
After contemplating for some time, Yuan nodded and said, "Alright, I'll help the Azure Dragon Clan. However, I will need the Tear of the Azure Heavens now. My sword is exhausted after killing the Second Elder and needs to recover."
Jiao Zhenhai nodded, "Okay."
Some time later, Jiao Zhenhai handed the Tear of the Azure Heavens to Yuan.
"I'm going to use this right now. You should alert the rest of your family."
"I know this isn't the proper time to ask this, but… what does it do?" Jiao Zhenhai couldn't contain his curiosity.
However, Yuan shrugged and responded in a genuine voice, "I don't know."
"What? Then why do you want it?"
"My instincts," he said.
"..."
Jiao Zhenhai fell silent.
After a moment, he asked, "Are you going to do it here?"
"Preferably. Since nobody can disturb me here. Don't worry, I won't steal your treasures, if that's what you're worried about."
"I trust you."
Without saying anything else, Jiao Zhenhai left the treasury and summoned everyone from the Azure Dragon Clan.
Meanwhile, Yuan sat on the floor with the Tear of the Azure Heavens in his grasp.
