Chapter 234 One of the Three Mountains
“Now do you understand the might of His Majesty!” Greendrake managed to drag the severely injured Goldendrake out of the wall.
Even though Goldendrake was alive, he was gravely injured, with broken limbs and internal. organs damaged, barely hanging onto life.
Greendrake sighed. He had intended to help Goldendrake, but after bringing him here, Goldendrake still seemed determined to court death.
Earlier, Greendrake had offered to fight, knowing that if Leones, the Dragon King, took action, Goldendrake would likely face near–certain death. And indeed, it had come to pass.
“Hmph! This is the fate of those who disrespect the Dragon King!”
“You should be grateful that the Dragon King spared your life. Now kneel and thank him!” Seeing this, Blackdrake and the others naturally felt no pity for Goldendrake.
Those who are pitiable must have done something to be despised. They had tried to persuade Goldendrake earlier but to no avail.
Now, having personally experienced the new Dragon King’s power, Goldendrake could rest in peace, knowing the truth.
Lying on the ground, Goldendrake was filled with shock and fear.
He realized that what Greendrake and the others had warned him about was not exaggerated. In fact, they had been somewhat understated.
After that battle, Goldendrake truly understood the meaning of being completely crushed. No wonder Greendrake and the others were now more powerful than he was. They had acknowledged a new master and reaped tremendous benefits.
“Goldendrake, have you yielded?” Leones asked.
“I… I yield!” Like a beaten dog, Goldendrake lay motionless on the ground, his head banging against the floor in submission.
“I have issued the Dragon’s Order three times, and you refused each one. Under normal. circumstances, you would be dead!” Leones said sternly, “But considering you were the sworn son of the old Dragon King and were loyal to him, I will spare your life.”
“Thank you, Your Majesty… thank you…” Goldendrake repeatedly knocked his head on the ground, feeling mixed emotions. Even though he was alive, he feared his remaining days would be filled with suffering. The possibility of living the rest of his life as a cripple filled him with regret. At that moment, Leones handed an elixir to Greendrake to give to Goldendrake.
“Thank
you for the medicine, Your Majesty!” Seeing this, Greendrake quickly thanked him on behalf of Goldendrake. Without any warning, he shoved the elixir into Goldendrake’s mouth. The elixir melted instantly, its effects rapidly spreading and nourishing Goldendrake’s bones and veins. In less than 10 minutes, Goldendrake sprang up from the ground, a look of disbelief on his face.
“Am… am I healed… what happened!?” Goldendrake felt as if he was dreaming. He wondered if he had passed out from the pain and was now in a dream. Otherwise, how could his broken limbs and damaged organs heal so quickly?
“The new Dragon King is not only a martial arts genius but also unparalleled in medicine!” Greendrake explained, “Your swift recovery is all thanks to the elixir given by His Majesty. You

should be thanking him for this gracious gift!”
Hearing this, Goldendrake was astounded. The fact that such a miraculous medicine existed in the world and that his severe injuries could be healed instantly was unbelievable. Could this new Dragon King be a god?
With that thought, Goldendrake immediately knel “Thank you, Your Majesty, for sparing my life and for your generous gift!”
Not only had he been spared, but he also received a miraculous elixir from the Dragon King. Goldendrake’s gratitude towards Leones was boundless, and he submitted it completely.
“Stand up.
I have questions for you,” Leones said.
“Yes!” Goldendrake got up, head bowed, awaiting the questions.
“I heard you’re from Yingville?” Leones inquired, “You’re familiar with Fatuma, right?”
Fatuma was a part of Yingville.
“Of course.” Goldendrake replied respectfully, “I’ve spent years around Fatuma. I know it well!” “How’s the situation there currently?” Leones pressed.
“The situation?” Goldendrake paused, not fully grasping Leones‘ question.
“I mean, are there any formidable figures there?” Leones added.
Leones was planning to visit Fatuma soon, so he inquired in advance.
“Yes!” Goldendrake responded, “The most powerful figure openly in Fatuma is Vulture!”
Vulture!?
Upon hearing this name, Blackdrake and the others expressions changed slightly.
It wasn’t Vulture himself they feared, but rather the power backing him.
Goldendrake continued, “He has a vast organization near Chamber Mountain. He’s even tried. recruiting me several times.
“But out of loyalty to my adoptive father, I always refused, which upset him. Climbing up the ranks in Fatuma became almost impossible.”
People like Blackdrake had their own territories and influences across the Nine Continents. But Goldendrake, stuck in Yingville, faced significant challenges due to Vulture looming over him. “I’ve heard Vulture is the worldly disciple of the cultivators of Chamber Mountain, which is why he’s so powerful!” Blackdrake interjected.
Cultivators of Chamber Mountain!? Leones was taken aback.
Blackdrake continued, “Your Majesty, do you remember the ancient warrior from the Newman family you killed?
“In the ancient warrior world, there’s a saying. Three Mountains, Five Sects, and Seven Families.
person you killed from the Newman family was just one of the seven families.
The
“And Chamber Mountain is one of the Three Mountains!
“Vulture dominates the area, mainly because he’s backed by Chamber Mountain. No one dares to challenge him.
“After all, you shouldn’t insult the ancient warriors, especially when it’s one of the most powerful of the Three Mountains in the ancient warrior work!”
