The Strongest Dragon in the Era of Beast Taming

Chapter 965: Chapter 959: The Lost Dragon

David Jones had seen the ocean before, but this was his first time leading a fleet across the East Sea.

Sniffing the oncoming sea breeze, he couldn’t help but leisurely pull on his fishing rod.

Seeing this, the little ones standing beside David Jones also began to subconsciously learn, each with a fishing rod in hand.

“Quack.”

The Star Frog opened its mouth wide, its gaze shifting back and forth between David Jones and Rainbow and the others.

They had been fishing for a day and a night, and it had been hungry for a day and a night too.

During this time, except for Daphne who managed to catch a salmon at the beginning, the Trainer and the big sister had caught nothing, not even a sea fish Beast of a slightly higher Species Level.

“Eat some Dragon Crystals to fill your belly first.”

David Jones casually fed Star Frog a high-level Dragon Crystal, then turned his gaze towards the wildly shaking float near Daphne.

“Eek!” (Another air raid!)

Rainbow unhappily pulled up the rod, its wide-open dragon mouth faintly exuding a whiff of Destruction aura.

“Mew.” (No using Arcane Force and intuition to cheat.)

Daphne quickly reminded.

“Roar.” (That’s right.)

The Gluttonous Beast looked at Rainbow with some unease.

Undoubtedly, the big sister who had evolved into a Destruction Emperor Dragon was the undisputed strongest member of the team.

When they couldn’t compete in terms of strength, casual fishing naturally became the best mode of competition.

“The Marshal seems to be in good spirits, but it’s very difficult to catch rare marine beasts on the Hualong,” Mattel Wright said, pushing his glasses with his fingertip.

The flagship Hualong was an eighth-refined heritage weapon warship, covered with layers upon layers of legendary Dragon Scales, possessing overwhelmingly powerful defense capabilities and Emperor Dragon Domination.

Moreover, with the many powerful trainers gathered on the fleet, most Marine Beasts below the strength of an Eighth-Rank Emperor would choose to avoid the Hualong, making it nearly impossible to encounter schools of fish.

Just as Mattel Wright shook his head inwardly, thinking David Jones would come up empty-handed, Daphne suddenly shouted, attracting his attention.

“Mew!”

As Daphne pulled hard, a dragon shadow with scales shimmering with a ghostly blue glow and eyes as deep as pearls suddenly leapt out of the water.

“Pet Name”: Bi Lan Jiao Dragon

“Pet Type”: Water, Dual Dragon Type

“Species Level”: Epic Overlord

“Grade”: Seventh Order upper-level

“Pet Profile”: A pureblood Jiao Dragon that feeds on sea spirits and is accompanied by sea souls, capable of causing tsunamis to flood islands in moments of rage, and is quite a brutal Marine Beast.

“???”

Seeing this scene, David Jones couldn’t help but widen his eyes.

What’s going on! Is this Daphne’s luck? Using an ordinary, baitless fishing rod, she actually managed to catch a Overlord Jiao Dragon in the vast ocean.

At this moment, not only was David Jones shocked, but even the Deity-level powerhouses resting on the battleships were somewhat surprised.

Why would an Overlord Jiao Dragon bypass the defense of hundreds of escort ships and approach the heavily guarded main ship, the Hualong?

“Mew!” (I won!)

Daphne didn’t care how preposterous it was to catch an Overlord Jiao Dragon; it only knew it had won the fishing contest.

“Eek.” (Boring.)

Rainbow crushed the fishing rod, showing no further interest in playing.

At that moment, the secretary-dressed Mattel Wright approached from behind David Jones and said in a low voice,

“The fleet heading to Sakura Soul Country must pass through the Misty Sea.”

“And the ruler of the Misty Sea is an Eighth Order Quasi-God Canglan Sky Dragon, a water type with formidable strength. One-third of the East Sea falls under its dominion, and it currently maintains a neutral stance towards humans.”

“If I’m not mistaken, this Bi Lan Jiao Dragon must be one of the many descendants of the Canglan Sky Dragon, though it’s a mystery how it breached the defense of the escort ships.”

Upon hearing this, information about the Canglan Sky Dragon flooded David Jones’s mind.

Unlike the Yamanano Brahma Dragon, which is hostile towards humans, the Canglan Sky Dragon, despite being an ultimate water type Emperor, seems to be a peace-seeking homebody dragon.

It has never invaded the territories of Flowery Kingdom, and even maintains a certain level of cooperation with the Seafront Province Beast Tamers Association, being one of the few mutant Emperor Dragons with whom communication is possible.

“Welcome to the Misty Sea territory, friends from Flowery Kingdom. I am Yun Lan, tasked with receiving and guiding you.”

At this moment, the voice of the Bi Lan Jiao Dragon was so gentle that it was almost unbearable for itself.

But there was no choice, the situation dictated the terms!

Unluckily, while it was tranquilly pondering a treasure hunt in the vortex current channel, it was swept in front of hundreds of warships by the current.

Sensing the intensely overwhelming Deity aura all around, the prideful Bi Lan Jiao Dragon decisively chose to empty its mind, lest these unfamiliar powerhouses notice something amiss and skin it alive.

“Hold on a second.”

David Jones raised an arm, signaling the powerful trainers present to calm their restlessness, then his gaze turned to the Bi Lan Jiao Dragon.

Even knowing words like “guide”, it seems this Pureblood Flood Dragon has had quite a bit of interaction with humans.

Thus, David Jones intentionally put on a murderous face and said coldly, “Guide? A guide wouldn’t appear here sneakily!”

“Speak, would you prefer to be steamed or braised?”

“If you don’t tell the truth, I don’t mind adding a dish for the little ones, since Star Frog here is also hungry.”

At these words, Star Frog’s eyes suddenly lit up, its saliva flowing.

“Ribbit!” (I like steamed dragon claws, braised dragon liver, crispy fried dragon scales, sautéed dragon loin, chicken-style dragon belly…)

Hearing this series of dishes, the Bi Lan Jiao Dragon’s complexion changed drastically.

What kind of monster had it encountered?

It had such an appetite that it wouldn’t even spare the hardest dragon scales!

David Jones averted his gaze, “No answer? That’s fine, Rainbow, do away with it.”

“Eek!”

Rainbow licked its lips, eager to try.

“Wait, I surrender!” the Bi Lan Jiao Dragon raised its dragon claws.

It was impossible to fight!

Just one brief look at Rainbow, and it had a sense of déjà vu, as if facing a terrifying demon god.

“The reason I appeared here is not due to the random transfers of the vortex currents, but rather I’m seeking a lost Heavenly Emperor Relic,” said the Bi Lan Jiao Dragon, unable to help but sigh.

For a life-fearing Flood Dragon, searching for a Heavenly Emperor Relic it had sought for over a hundred years was important, but it was nothing compared to its very life!

“The Heavenly Emperor Relic!!!”

At the mention of this, the powerful beings present couldn’t help but become restless, including the usually calm David Jones.

He couldn’t fathom how a Seventh Order Overlord Flood Dragon might be related to the Heavenly Emperor Relic.

After all, the Heavenly Court from the Ancient Age was the strongest force on the Sapphire Star, filled with countless mighty beings, even eternal immortal implements like Innocence in David Jones’s hand could survive the passage of time.

“Swoosh!”

David Jones’s figure flashed, his right forefinger aimed at the Bi Lan Jiao Dragon.

“While the forces of the Misty Sea are strong, with an Eighth Order Quasi-God Water type Dragon presiding, they can’t guard a precious Heavenly Emperor Relic,” he said.

“Tell me all the information you know. If the intelligence is of sufficient value, I might spare your life, and even give you a magnificent opportunity!” David Jones said enticingly.
