Chapter 1746: Two Tribes Bestowing Swords

"What? You want me to keep your Green Dragon sword?" Chen Xiaobei cocked his head to one side. "This is a Spirit Immortal Instrument that your ancestors have passed down to you. How could you just give it away like that?"

"Please lend me your ears, Dragon Ancestor!" The Green Dragon Emperor said. "The Green Dragon sword can only be used in the Divine Dragon Ruin. Now that we will not be fighting against the Vermillion Dragons, we have no use for it. It would be a waste for me to keep it but if this sword goes to you, It has the opportunity to unleash its full potential! It can also be restored, and eventually reclaim its almighty strength! Our ancestors will definitely be proud of us! Most importantly, this sword is the only item that is worthy enough to repay Dragon Ancestor, so, please don't turn us down. We won't be at peace if you don't take it!"

The Green Dragon Emperor's explanation was sensible and filled with earnest. He genuinely wanted to use the sword to repay Chen Xiaobei.

Chen Xiaobei pondered the offer for a moment and then nodded. "I cannot find a reason to refuse your gift. I will accept the sword! From today onwards, I, Chen Zhufeng will protect the Green Dragon tribe!"

"Thank you, Dragon Ancestor, for your gracious protection!" The Green Dragon broke into a smile.

From this day onwards, whatever trouble the Green Dragon tribe would encounter, Chen Xiaobei would come to their help, protecting them and ensuring their safety.

This commitment was extremely valuable to the Green Dragon tribe!

"Plea... Please accept our Vermillion Dragon sword too...Dragon Ancestor..." The Vermillion Dragon Emperor came forward with the fragments of the Vermillion Dragon sword in both hands.

"You don't have to!" Chen Xiaobei said. "Keep the sword with you. It's your only trump card!"

"I'm afraid, Dragon Ancestor might not know about this..." The Vermillion Dragon Emperor quickly explained, "On the other side of the tear is no longer Divine Dragon Ruin territory! Away from the ruin, I won't be able to use the Vermillion Dragon sword either... Since we won't be fighting each other, the Vermillion Dragon sword is useless!"

Chen Xiaobei's eyebrows rose to this forehead. "So, you are hoping that I keep the Vermillion Dragon sword and restore it so that your ancestor, the Vermillion Dragon would be comforted in the underworld?"

"Exactly!" The Vermillion Dragon Emperor confirmed. "Of course, we are also hoping to be your protection! Please grant us this chance, Dragon Ancestor!"

"You really are clever!" Chen Xiaobei grinned. "Alright. I'll accept the Vermillion Dragon sword as well. With this, I too, will shield the Vermillion Dragon tribe!"

"Thank you, Dragon Ancestor!" The Vermillion Dragon Emperor wore a bright and grateful smile.

Chen Xiaobei put away both swords and then asked, "Oh, I still don't know where you live."

The Vermillion Dragon replied, "Dragon Ancestor, our tribe lives in Green Dragon Land! Of course, our territory is only the tip of the iceberg. Our tribe is merely a third-rate force in Green Dragon Land!"

"Third-rate force?"

Chen Xiaobei felt that he might have made a promise that he could not keep.

"Yes... Only third rate..." The Vermillion Dragon Emperor answered. "Green Dragon Land is closest to Earth-God realm. They have a great number of elites and prodigies! Factions like the Heaven Domination Faction is way more powerful than us!"

"Oh... I understand now..." Chen Xiaobei nodded. "You better lay low for the moment. I'm afraid it will be some time before I would be going to Green Dragon Land..."

"Don't worry, Dragon Ancestor! We will not get ourselves into in any trouble..." The Vermillion Dragon Emperor promised.

Chen Xiaobei nodded. "Alright, now that we've cleared things up. I have a small request that I hope you two would agree to!"

Both Dragon Emperors answered eagerly, "You don't have to be so courteous, Dragon Ancestor. Your business is our business. You only have to instruct us!"

Chen Xiaobei then replied, "After you've dealt with wrapping up the aftermath here, I hope that the both of you could begin to prepare your soldiers for war! In a month or two, I might need to use your troops!"

"Don't worry, Dragon Ancestor!" Both Dragon Emperors pledged. "We will prepare our men! You just have to say the word, and we'll fight to our deaths with whoever the enemy is!"

"No, no. You won't have to fight to the death!" Chen Xiaobei shook his head. "Even if a war breaks out, I will make early preparations to minimize deaths and injuries, and maybe, you'll even suffer none!"

"What?! How could there be no casualties in a war?" Both Emperors were confounded. "Dragon Ancestor, that is a brilliant plan!"

"The two of you are advanced in years, there's no need to brown-nose with me!" Chen Xiaobei waved them off. "I have to go make arrangements so I'll make a move first! You will have to settle things here yourselves! Contact me anytime if anything comes up!"

"Bye Dragon Ancestor...Bye Dragon Ancestor..."

Everyone present raised their hands and bowed to Chen Xiaobei as he turned to leave.

"Little Tiger, wait a minute!" Chen Xiaobei walked up to Ling Qingfeng and lowered his head, and whispered, "Brother Qingfeng! I'm in a hurry. Let's meet up sometime later, I'll buy the drinks this time!"

Ling Qingfeng blushed. "Alright! I'll wait for your return! Whatever you do next, take care of yourself! Don't take unnecessary risks, and don't show off! If you need any help, just give me a call!"

Seeing Ling Qingfeng yammering on, Chen Xiaobei suddenly felt warm and fuzzy, "Oh... Brother Qingfeng, since when you become so sappy? That's too feminine! It's unlike you at all!"

Ling Qingfeng hissed, "I'm just being kind! You don't have to be mean! Get out of my sight!"

"Now, that's more like you! Good brother, see you later!" Chen Xiaobei patted the Giant Barbaric Tiger's fluffy head.

The Giant Barbaric Tiger sprang up, and disappeared from the people's view.

Ling Qingfeng bit her lip, her pretty face bashful. "Stupid! I don't want to be your brother!"

"Heavens! Our little seventeen is changing her preference! Finally, she likes men!" The young princes cheered.

"Shut up, all of you! I will give you a good beating if you don't stop!" Blood rushed up Ling Qingfeng's face and she ran after the laughing princes.

Now that the battle was over, much-missed laughter that had been absent for so long reverberated once again.

...

Ding Ring Ring...

Chen Xiaobei's phone rang immediately after he left the ruin.
