nd himself.Thus, the true qi that erupted ahead slammed heavily into him."Pff!"The man in black spat out a mouthful of blood, his entire body shooting backward like a cannonball, landing thirty meters..."Who told you that you are the guardians of the Divine Dragon" Fang Yu took another sip of tea and asked.

"This is the family motto passed down from our ancestors, Ye," Ye Shengxue said with a serious expression and a lowered voice, "And we also have evidence. Our ancestors saw the dragon with their own eyes!"

Have you ever seen a dragon with your own eyes

This message is quite a bombshell.

But legend has it that the dragon's body is at least hundreds of meters long and nearly a hundred meters wide.

If it really appeared, wouldn't it cause a sensation

But Fang Yu had a change of heart.

After absorbing the essence of the Divine Dragon, a small golden dragon began to coil and swirl in his dantian.

Thinking about it... If Shenlong appeared in a similar form, it's quite possible it could avoid being noticed.

Fan Yu raised an eyebrow and said, "What else"

"Many of the secret manuals in our family were bestowed by the divine dragon," Ye Shengxue said.

"Where did the dragon go after that" Fang Yu asked.

"That... I'm not sure. The ancestral precepts mention that the Divine Dragon will leave behind its bloodline, but this bloodline is uncertain in time and place, and could appear in anyone in the world."

“The mission of our Ye family is to find the person with the bloodline of the divine dragon and protect his growth...until he becomes a true divine dragon.” Ye Shengxue said.

Fāng Yǔ listened, his brows furrowing deeper and deeper.

At first, he thought Ye Shengxue was making things up, but after listening to so much, he suddenly felt that Ye Shengxue didn't seem to be entirely talking nonsense.

The Divine Dragon left behind its bloodline...

Is it that the it was left in the deep sea beneath Kowloon Island

At this moment, Fang Yu once again remembered the little golden dragon circling around his dantian.

Could this be the bloodline of the divine dragon that Ye Shengxue spoke of

It seems right, this little golden dragon, does indeed resemble a young dragon!

Fang Yu raised his eyes and looked at Ye Shengxue, asking, "I remember the original words you said last night were to ask me for help Why do you need help Isn't it just to find someone with the bloodline of the dragon and protect him"

Upon hearing this, Ye Shengxue's face suddenly turned ugly, and she whispered, "As I just said to you, the Shenlong chose our Ye family as its guardians... and bestowed upon us many treasures and martial arts..."

But with a deal with the dragon, the price is relative.

"When the Divine Dragon bestowed these upon us, it also placed a curse upon our Ye family bloodline."

At this point, Ye Shengxue's face turned pale as snow, her lips trembling slightly.

"What curse" Fang Yu asked.

"If we fail to find someone with the bloodline of the Dragon God, every thirty years, half of our family members will die." Ye Shengxue said in a trembling voice.

Fang Yu's brows furrowed.

Every thirty years, half the people in the family die. It's a good cycle.

The remaining members of the surviving half are to continue nurturing the next generation within these twenty years and continue guarding the possessor of the dragon bloodline, whose whereabouts remain unknown.

Even with the blessings of the divine dragon's techniques and treasures, the Ye family would find it difficult to truly grow in power under this curse. They could only resign themselves to endlessly searching for the descendants of the divine dragon.

"This curse... is truly vicious," Fang Yu thought.

When it came to curses, Ye Shengxue seemed to recall a painful memory. Her eyes reddened, and crystal tears welled up in her beautiful eyes.

"We have no other choice. The curse left by the Divine Dragon is irreversible. We can only generation after generation, desperately searching for someone with the bloodline of the Divine Dragon, hoping to escape this hell sooner." Ye Shengxue wept.

Fang Yu quietly looked at Ye Shengxue, without speaking.

Ye Shengxue quickly stopped and wiped away her tears, looking up at Fang Yu and saying, "Nineteen years have passed since the last time the curse struck. We only have a year left. If we don't find the owner of the dragon bloodline within this year, half our family will die again."

And I am one of them.

Fang Yu raised an eyebrow and said, "How do you know you'll be one of them Isn't it random"

Ye Shengxue shook her head slightly and said, "Ten years after a curse strikes once, a mark will appear on the family members...and this mark signifies who will be the sacrifice during the next outbreak of the curse. Moreover, as the time of the curse's recurrence approaches, the body of the marked person will become increasingly weak."

When she said this, Ye Shengxue didn't have any expression on her face and acted very calmly.

She suddenly pulled her sleeve back, revealing her entire arm.

At this moment, Fang Yu saw that there were many gray markings on Ye Shengxue's arm skin. They were lines intertwined together, forming a complex and intricate network.

"Over the last year, the mark would creep up my neck, then onto my face, spreading all over. And by then, that's when my life force would be gone." Ye Shengxue said.

At this time, the waiter is preparing to serve the dishes.

Ye Shengxue pulled her sleeves back and took a deep breath.

Fang Yu frowned, deep in thought.

Ye Shengxue's words should all be true, she didn't lie.

A girl her age, if she were lying or acting, wouldn't escape Fang Yu's eyes.

But Fang Yu still had many doubts.

< Why didn't he hear a whisper about it over a thousand years ago when the dragon appeared >

Why would the Shenlong leave its bloodline in a random corner of the world And entrust an ordinary family to be its guardian And leave such a vicious curse to force a family to serve it

And perhaps most importantly, if the Shenlong vanished completely after entrusting the Ye family with guardianship a thousand two hundred years ago, then where did it hide during its long millennia-spanning history Why does all information about it stop at ten thousand years ago

Something doesn't feel right.

Moreover, the whole affair was imbued with a sinister and esoteric aura.

The dragon is a divine beast, controlling sacred power and symbolizing light.

Could it really place such a vicious curse upon an ordinary family

And does the bloodline of Shenlong truly require protection by a human family

"If you find the owner of the Shenlong bloodline, how can you lift the curse from your bodies" Fang Yu asked.

“As long as you bring people to the ancestral hall in our home, the curse on us will automatically be lifted.” Ye Shengxue stared intently at Fang Yu.

This time, in addition to her, her mother, cousin, and cousin sister also appeared with marks on their bodies.

These are all the people closest to her, she doesn't want to see them die!

Fang Yu, she's her last straw!

If Fang Yu is willing to go to the Ye family once, her family can be saved!

But Fang Yu didn't make a statement, instead, he began to eat the food with his head down.

Ye Shengxue's heart was full of anticipation, but she knew that this kind of thing couldn't be forced, and she couldn't get too anxious.

She had only known Fang Yu for a couple of days, and she had already said a bunch of things that seemed completely absurd to others. It was already pretty good that Fang Yu didn't treat her like crazy.

She still has about a year, she can convince Fang Yu of this.

At least for now, she could see hope. The Ye family wouldn't be as dark as it had been for the past thousand or two hundred years!

Thinking this way, Ye Shengxue felt much more at ease.

"Mr. Fang, take your time and eat. Although this restaurant is a Michelin three-star establishment, the dishes are not unlimited, you know." Ye Shengxue smiled and said.

Fang Yu ate one mouthful after another, finishing everything in front of him in three or two bites.

Ye Shengxue immediately asked the waiter to come in and continue ordering dishes.

In the room, Fang Yu ate sullenly, while Ye Shengxue quietly watched him, not touching the food in front of her.

After a while, the room opposite suddenly began to make a lot of noise.

It's like people are drunk and yelling at each other.

Ye Shengxue's brows furrowed slightly as she called over a waiter and asked, "Why is it so noisy across the way"

"I'm so sorry for the inconvenience this has caused you, Miss Ye. I'll be right over to take care of it." The waiter bowed deeply and retreated.

No more than five seconds after the waiter left, a louder voice erupted from the room across the way.

"Do you **ing know who I am You dare say I'm noisy Even your boss wouldn't dare talk to me like that!"

"Bang!"

Next came a chorus of screams, followed by the dull thud of heavy objects hitting the ground.

Ye Shengxue's face changed, and she immediately stood up and walked towards the outside of the room.e named Sikong Chen, accompanied by over ten other disciples from the same gate Is this true" Huixu asked. 。Si Kongchen is certain, as for his group of subordinates, their attire are all the robes of...
