I Have Seven Dragon Souls In a cultivation world

Karther was overflowing with gratitude to the man.

He practically got rid of all his problems!

His main competitor vanished overnight. If nothing went wrong, the position of the patriarch was guaranteed to be his!

And all this was thanks to the powerful young man in front of him.

Regardless of the good impression Karther had, His Baleview Clan was still in a dire predicament.

Rylan took a few shaky steps, appearing before the seated Dante and Rebecca

"Bang!"

Instantly, Rylan knelt on the ground as he kowtowed towards Dante

"Lord Dragon Son! Please forgive the insolence of my Baleview Clan.

I know that the previous actions of some members of my clan may have offended you, but I beg that you let your anger end at them and spare the rest!"

Despite The old man Rylan's dire plea, Dante didn't bother to look in his direction.

he was seemingly more interested in the splendour of the ruby in between his fingers than Rylan's apology.

Rylan instantly noticed the disinterest of Dante and broke out into a nervous sweat as he stammered

"Lord Dragon Son, I know that this can never compensate for the displeasure you felt, but I hope that the treasure we brought today can ease some of your pain."

Hearing the magical word, Dante's ears seemed to twitch. And so, for the first time since Rylan entered the room, Dante looked up to get a clear look at him.

But this didn't ease the pressure Rylan felt, but instead made it even worse!

When Rylan looked up, what he saw was an emotionless pair of amber, serpentine eyes glaring down on him!

The eyes seemed to stare into his very soul whilst a terrifying archaic aura seemed to radiate from Dante's body, stunning Rylan into silence!

In his life, Rylan had only met one person who could even rival the aura Dante had right now

'His Majesty, King Raiden...'

This was the first person who came to mind when Rylan saw Dante.

The aura, the pride, the confidence!

Dante seemed to have everything. 

Rylan didn't even have to think twice before he could realise Dante for who he was,

A natural-born leader!

well, as natural as you could call having two dragon souls!

With a wave of his hand, Rylan quickly instructed Karther to come forward.

Karther didn't even hesitate as he brought out 10 giant chests from his space ring.

Karther slowly opened each chest, and as Dante saw the contents, a wide smile crept on his face 

Each chest was filled with piles and piles of treasures that they presented to Dante.

The Baleview Clan really bled this time as, to appease Dante, they had probably spent almost anything from around 40% of their clan's total wealth!

Now if you consider that most of the clan's actual wealth is contained in fixed assets like mines or weapons stores, this would probably mean these treasures donated by the clan could be anywhere from 60% to 80% of this clans total liquid assets!

Dante was truly pleased by the sight of all these treasures in front of him and couldn't help but take a moment to admire the sight. 

Seeing Dante's smile, Rylan knew that now was the time to act.

He quickly urged Karther to move as he presented the treasures to Dante 

"Lord Dragon Son, please forgive this old man but these are all the treasures my pitiful clan could bring you"

As Rylan was speaking, Dante rose from his chair and slowly descended the steps between them, eventually standing before the kneeling Rylan.

"Is that all?" asked Dante in an emotionless voice.

"Pa.. pardon?" Said Rylan, struggling to get his words out 

"You heard me," said Dante 

"I asked, is that all you have to offer?"

"Lord Dragon Son, please have mercy! My Baleview clan is only so large I can assure you these are all the treasures we can bring at the-"

Before Rylan could even finish speaking, Dante lightly flicked his wrist, bringing out a parchment of paper.

Once Rylan got a good look at the parchment of paper, Rylan honestly felt his heart stop beating! 

Holding the piece of paper in front of Rylan's eyes, Dante smirked cruelly as he began speaking.

"As I'm sure you can see for yourself, this parchment doesn't contain very good news for you and your Baleview Clan."

"An official document of solicitation for the Legendary Death blade guild, asking for the assassination of the new Dragon Son. And all this signed by none other than your wonderful son, Marco!"

looking at the piece of paper in front of him, Rylan almost collapsed!

Before this, he had actually felt some sadness at the disappearance and supposed death of his son, but now all that instantly vanished!

If anything, Rylan wished he could bring that bastard back to life just so he could beat him back to death again!

Before, even if Dante wanted to deal with the Baleview clan, it would have to be done in the dark by using various schemes and underhanded plots.

But now, with the evidence that Dante had, the Baleview clan was as good as finished!

What Dante had was evidence of a serious crime.

The assassination of its young talents was one thing that the Hidden Dragon Academy truly despised.

If they were killed in open battle, there was a chance that the Hidden Dragon Academy could overlook it and move on.

But if one of their top talents was actually sneakily assassinated, then the Hidden Dragon Academy wouldn't rest until they had the culprit's head!

This wasn't just something said by the Hidden Dragon Academy for show, they really had evidence to back it up.

On more than one occasion had the Hidden Dragon Academy gone to war against other countries for just having the courage to assassinate their young talents!

Of course, all this was done with the help of the Vaenam Kingdom, and there were also many other factors to take into consideration.

But this took nothing away from the fact that The Hidden Dragon Academy didn't play around when it came to protecting their young talents.

Any assassination attempt would have to pay in blood!
