Chapter 1746: Chapter 1744: Persuasion
Ling Feng sighed; actually, he too greatly disapproved of the Dragon Clanâs actions back then. Now the Half-Dragon Lineage is kicking them while theyâre down, which can only be said to be the Dragon Clanâs own doing, and they have no one else to blame!
However, now that Ling Feng is the Young Master of the Dragon Clan, he must face this issue to resolve it, and itâs actually a very good opportunity for him!
For if it were not for deep love, how could the hatred last so long?
"Destroying the Dragon Clan, will that truly make you happy?" Ling Feng looked calmly at Yueqiu. "No matter how you put it, dragon blood runs in your veins, you are part of the Dragon Clan. Although the Dragon Clan has wronged you before, is there really no desire in your heart to return to the Dragon Clan?"
Yueqiu sneered coldly, "Return to the Dragon Clan? Return to that cold-blooded race for what? My only thought right now is to watch the Dragon Clanâs destruction, only then will it not betray the years of suffering endured by our Half-Dragon Lineage!"
Ling Feng shook his head, "Destroy the Dragon Clan? Thatâs impossible. As long as Iâm around, the Dragon Clan will not be destroyed! Regarding the right and wrongs of the past, I donât want to say much, because the Dragon Clan indeed went too far back then."
"But now the Dragon Clan is under my leadership. Should your Half-Dragon Lineage wish to return to the embrace of the Dragon Clan, I, Ling Feng, would be very welcoming, and I promise that such things will not happen again!"
"Thatâs impossible!" Yueqiu shook her head, saying coldly.
Ling Feng smiled a little, "In this world, nothing is impossible! For you, Yueqiu, to represent the Half-Dragon Lineage, it means you are by no means an ordinary member of it; you have very strong influence within the Half-Dragon Lineage!"
"If Iâm not mistaken, these years, the Half-Dragon Lineage has been rising and falling, not having a comfortable time at all, right?" Ling Feng said lightly, "If the Half-Dragon Lineage had been living comfortably, it wouldnât be possible that theyâre still thinking of seeking revenge on the Dragon Clan now!"
"As a representative of the Half-Dragon Lineage, I think more than the average member, your true concern is embracing a better life for them rather than just seeking revenge!" Ling Feng said in a serious tone, "Covering your sight with past hatred is by no means the action of a wise leader. With your intelligence, you should understand this!"
Yueqiu stared hard at Ling Feng, "You say so much merely because the Dragon Clan is now wavering, right? Do you think I can be deceived by your flattery?"
Ling Feng laughed, "Wavering? I think you misunderstand the current state of the Dragon Clan! From my perspective, the Dragon Clan is not on the verge of collapse, rather, it stands at the starting point of rejuvenation and rise!"
"Yueqiu, in light of past mistakes made by the Dragon Clan, I can invite your Half-Dragon Lineage to return!" Ling Feng said calmly, "I will give your Half-Dragon Lineage enough respect, but if you insist on choosing the wrong path, my mercy has its limits!"
"Youâre threatening me?" Yueqiu said proudly, "What right do you have to threaten me?"
"Itâs not a threat, but advice!" Ling Feng shook his head and said, "Iâm the Young Master of the Dragon Clan, I can represent them, which is why I can give you such a promise. As for how your Half-Dragon Lineage chooses, itâs up to your vision!"
"Do you choose to clash with the Dragon Clan out of a momentâs anger, or do you choose to put aside past grudges and create a brilliant future jointly with the Dragon Clan?" Ling Feng looked deeply at Yueqiu, "Thatâs for you to decide, but I hope you make a choice soon, or else, when the City of Obliteration falls, if you still havenât decided, it will be too late!"
"The City of Obliteration falls?" Yueqiu paused for a moment, subconsciously saying, "Thatâs impossible!"
Ling Feng shook his head, "Nothing is impossible. Previously the City of Obliteration wasnât attacked by the Dragon Clan because the Dragon Clan chose to rest and recuperate. But now that I am the Controller of the Dragon Clan, I will not allow such an existence as the City of Obliteration. So, Yueqiu, time is not in your favor!"
Yueqiu gritted her teeth, her eyes showing signs of struggle, feeling as though Ling Feng had seen through everything.
The situation for the Half-Dragon Lineage is indeed very bad, or should be said, ever since being expelled from the Dragon Clan, their situation has never improved!
They drifted and wandered, without a place to call home, enduring suffering that the people of the Dragon Clan couldnât imagine. Moreover, throughout all these years, they placed the root of their suffering on the reason for their expulsion by the Dragon Clan back then, which is why the Half-Dragon Lineage harbors such hatred against the Dragon Clan.
But, as Ling Feng said, this is precisely why Yueqiu feels deeply torn. As a leader of the Half-Dragon Lineage now, her considerations extend beyond revenge to also how to improve their lot!
In essence, Ling Feng had struck a nerve with Yueqiu.
This is also why Yueqiu detests Ling Feng, for putting her in such a difficult position.
"Donât think for a second that I donât know the current state of the Dragon Clan!" Yueqiu took a deep breath and said, "The Dragon Clan is a paper tiger now, talking about destroying the City of Obliteration is nothing short of daydreaming!"
"Then letâs wait and see!" Ling Feng smiled, "The strength of the Dragon Clan will exceed your imagination, Yueqiu. As a leader, donât let the hatred of history blind your eyes. I look forward to your wise decision!"
Saying this, Ling Fengâs figure gradually faded away before Yueqiu, leaving nothing behind as though he had never been there at all.
Yueqiuâs eyes flickered; after a long pause, she sighed, "Ling Feng... you truly are a formidable opponent! Perhaps under your hand, the Dragon Clan really will undergo a revival. But... I wonât be easily swayed by your words. If you want my Half-Dragon Lineage to return to the Dragon Clan, then show your true strength!"
"I never expected Yueqiu to be with the Half-Dragon Lineage!" Ling Feng left Yueqiuâs palace, exhaling as he murmured to himself, "I hope my words will lead Yueqiu to make a wise choice!"
Actually, even while saying those words to Yueqiu, Ling Feng felt a bit uneasy. He firmly believed in the Dragon Clanâs eventual victory, but the strength of the City of Obliteration definitely couldnât be underestimated!
Yet, Ling Feng had no choice but to consider destroying the City of Obliteration, for if the Dragon Clan seeks revival, they must crush this stumbling block standing in their way!
"Itâs time to think seriously about how to defeat Rimian!" Ling Feng chuckled lightly and then turned back towards the Thousand Dragons Mountain.
