In the great crack in the south of Dragon City, deep underground in the Dragon Palace.

A hole of about 100 square meters**, surrounded by large and small cracks, the smallest one is one finger thick, and the largest can allow several people to walk together. In the center of the cave, a one-meter-high stone platform was arched, and above the stone platform was a palm-sized fiery red bead, like a flame. If you look closely, you can faintly see a golden symbol imprint in the beads.

On one side of the stone platform, a middle-aged man in a fiery red cloak stood, silently looking at the beads on the stone platform.

I don't know how long later, suddenly there was a sound of rustling from the depths of the cave, but the man in the cloak by the stone platform was indifferent to the sound. Soon, a figure slowly appeared in the depths of the cave, a man dressed in a dark color suit, walked to the stone platform ten meters away and stopped.

"How is it?" Approaching the stone platform, the man in the power suit showed a serious face, and it was the general of the Fire Empire, Long Yu.

The man in the cloak didn't react, still looking at the fiery red beads on the stone platform.

Long Yu sighed and said again: "If it doesn't work, it's better to sacrifice with blood......"

"No!" Long Yu was interrupted by the cloaked man before he could finish his words.

"But our time is running out, and the situation is getting more and more chaotic now, maybe it will ...... at some point" Long Yu was silent for a while, and then said, "Yuan He has already been in contact with him, and I don't know if his plan will succeed." ”

As he spoke, Long Yu explained in detail several major events that had happened recently.

After silently listening to Long Yu's introduction, the man in the cloak slowly turned around and looked at Long Yu. Long Yu, on the other hand, looked at the man in the cloak without flinching.

The man in the cloak raised his hand, took off his hood, revealing a face similar to Long Yu's seven or eight points, and said in a hoarse voice, "So, have they arrived in the outer city now?"

"It arrived a few days ago, and Yuan He has already gone to look for them. Long Yu nodded, "However, I don't think his plan can work, in the end, it depends on our own strength." ”

"We didn't expect this in the first place, and Yuan He also knew. The cloaked man turned to look at the beads on the stone platform again, and continued, "As long as it can delay for me for a while." ”

Long Yu looked at the other party with some concern, then looked at the beads suspended on the stone platform, and stopped talking. And the man in the cloak seemed to know Long Yu very well, and still looked at the beads and said, "I don't need anything, give me a little more time." ”

"Time is running out, now that even Zhan Yueji has been obtained, if our guess is correct, there are already four emperors. Long Yu also looked at the beads on the stone platform, "The only one who can deal with the power of the emperor is the emperor." Anyway, Sakura, as the princess of the Fire Empire, is also her responsibility. ”

"But I'm also the king of this empire, so give me a little more time, brother. ”

Long Yu looked at the man in the cloak, bowed his head slightly, and then turned to leave. It's just that Long Yu didn't take a few steps, and the beads on the stone platform instantly burst into red light, reflecting the entire stone room as if burning.

"Huh!" the man in the cloak looked at the beads with some surprise, and Long Yu, who was on the other side, also looked at the former suspiciously. The man in the cloak shook his head and slowly reached out to hold the beads.

At this moment, the red light emitted by the beads on the stone platform became brighter and brighter, and the air gradually began to burn. However, Long Yu and the man in the cloak were not weak, so they naturally didn't care about the heat, but the man in the cloak still withdrew his hand. But the beads on the stone platform were still glowing, and they were getting brighter and brighter, like a sun. Suddenly, a golden light flashed in the center of the bead, and a burst of coercion instantly appeared in the cave, and the hearts of Long Yu and the man in the cloak flashed with horror.

"This is ......" Before Long Yu's words fell, the beads on the stone platform instantly returned to their original state, and the cave also dimmed, and everything before seemed to disappear.

"What's going on?"

The cloaked man shook his head, then reached out and grabbed the beads on the stone platform, and said, "It seems that our previous guess is true. ”

"What?" Long Yu asked blankly, as if he could still feel the coercion emanating from the beads before.

"He's still alive!" the cloaked man looked at the beads lying quietly in his palm, then turned to look at Long Yu, and continued, "You take the affairs of the empire first, anyway, we have already planned it." Now, I'd like to take a trip down there. ”

Long Yu was still digesting the previous piece of news, and when he heard what the man in the cloak said, he flatly refused: "No, that's too dangerous." It's better to let Sakura do the ......."

"No, it's not fair to Sakura. And I've made up my mind, so don't stop me. After saying that, the man in the cloak didn't care about Long Yu and left the cave directly.

After listening to the cloaked man's words, Long Yu just quietly watched the other party's figure in the dark. He turned, glanced at the stone platform not far away, sighed lightly, and left the cave along another path. The path went higher and higher, and soon, Long Yu came to a stone door. Long Yu didn't speak, he pushed open the stone door and entered a small room.

"How's it going?" The room appears to have been converted from a cave, surrounded by smooth stone walls, with a few stone chairs and a stone door at the entrance to the cave. And now, Yuan He sat on one of the stone chairs and asked Long Yu, who came out.

Long Yu shook his head, walked over to Yuan He and sat down, and said, "It seems that the record is true, and our speculation is also true, he is still alive." He turned his head and looked at Yuan He beside him, "Now, let's go ahead with that plan." ”

Yuan He nodded, and asked again: "Anyway, it is within the plan now, and there is nothing wrong." Oh, by the way, what about Your Majesty?"

"Second brother, he's going to go down. ”

"Go down, do you mean that forbidden place underground?" Hearing Long Yu's words, Yuan He was taken aback.

Long Yu didn't speak, just nodded.

"That's too dangerous, if it doesn't work out, it's not just death, even the Dragon Balls will be sealed there. ”

"So, I've always wanted Sakura to ...... her"

"No," Yuan He stood up angrily as soon as he heard Long Yu's words, "That would be too cruel to Sakura, and too hurtful." ”

"I talked to Sakura, and she agreed with me!" Long Yu gradually lowered his head at this point.

"Sakura-chan," Yuan He couldn't say anything for a while, and said after a while, "Then that's it for now, I'll go down and arrange it first." ”

Seeing that Long Yu was silent, Yuan He quietly exited the room.
