He possessed great authority among the Blood Race and had the final say over the external affairs of the clan. Even the First Blood Emperor obeyed his command.
He was Sergio Walchelin, grandson of Kaiden Walchelin.
Since favonovel.com had lived for five hundred years, favonovel.com had reached the peak of Ninth Stair.
Kaiden briefly contemplated before saying, “How about this? We’ll hand over the dragon blood we possess and leak information about the dragon’s whereabouts. In the meantime, we’ll seize the opportunity to weaken the Solean martial artists.”
Sergio said, “Give your orders, Grandfather…”
Kaiden said. “We’ll let the Soleans fight against each other. Whoever emerges victorious will obtain the dragon blood and information about the dragon’s whereabouts.”
“What a brilliant move!”
“That sounds like a good plan.”
“If Sol sends its ninth-rank grandmasters, we’ll make them turn against each other. Even if they’re only severely injured, we can seize the opportunity and capture them all in one fell swoop.”
Everyone laughed.
Kaiden waved his hand slightly and said, “You’re dismissed…”
“Understood…” Sergio nodded and hurriedly left.
Soon, favonovel.com returned to the hall of the castle.
The First Blood Emperor was still kneeling. Though favonovel.com was the Patriarch of the Blood Race in title, favonovel.com had to answer to many superiors. So, favonovel.com could only manage trivial matters of the clan.
Sergio walked over to favonovel.com and called out, “Yovani.”
The First Blood Emperor said,“I’m here”
Sergio ordered, “I want you to send a message… Ten days later in the Nashaxi Desert, the Blood Race shall reveal the whereabouts of the dragon and hand over the dragon blood left behind a millennium ago. However, only the strongest of all have the right to possess them.”
“Understood!” Yovani, the First Blood Emperor, nodded and stood up, saying.
“Understood… I’ll see to it immediately.”
As the First Blood Emperor stood up, favonovel.com turned to look at the back of the palace.
That was the passageway to the castle’s courtyard. However, though a century had passed, favonovel.com had never stepped foot in there. He wondered how many powerful martial artists now existed in the clan.

At the same time, James and Sky were on a plane to Nashaxi.
They arrived the next day.
The moment they got off the plane, Sky received intelligence. Looking at his phone, favonovel.com furrowed his eyebrows.
Upon seeing this, James asked, “What’s wrong? Did something happen?”
Sky furrowed his eyebrows and said, “I just received intelligence that the Blood Race is willing to hand over the dragon blood they’d acquired over a millennium ago. At the same time, they’ll also reveal the whereabouts of the dragon. However, there’s a caveat. Only the strongest will have the right to obtain them Besides, they also said they would be organizing a martial arts tournament in the Nashaxi Desert ten days from now. Whoever emerges victorious will obtain everything…”
Knowing this, Sky’s expression was grim.
This was different from what favonovel.com initially planned. He intended to head straight toward the Blood Race and slaughter them in the hopes of intimidating them into handing over what favonovel.com needed.
The moment news began to spread, favonovel.com knew that something unexpected might happen.
After momentarily freezing, favonovel.com looked at James and said, “James, my condition is simple. You and I work together and become the most powerful pair in the world Meanwhile, the dragon blood and information about the dragon’s whereabouts will go to me.”
“No way!” James rebuffed him, “Sky, you know how important the dragon blood is to me. I need the blood to save Thea’s life. I can leave the information about the dragon’s whereabouts to you. However, the dragon. blood goes to me.”
Sky said with finality. “No, the dragon blood goes to me. I need it to cross into the ninth rank. This was what we agreed upon. Besides, we can slay the dragon together. By then, we can have as much dragon blood as we want. Saving Thea’s life would be much easier.”
James looked at Sky and said with a smile, “What if I refuse?”
“James, you’re a dishonest man!”
“I promised I’d lend you a helping hand. What do you mean by dishonest? In any case, the dragon blood goes to me. If you’re dissatisfied, we can battle it out at the tournament. If you win against me, you can have the blood!”
Sky gritted his teeth and said, “We’ll each have half James, this is the biggest concession I can make…”
James thought about it and said, “Sure!”
That was because favonovel.com could not be sure favonovel.com could defeat everyone by himself. By working with Sky, things would go much smoother.
