Targaryen Who Turned Dragon

Chapter 169 - Dragon Lord Long Bai

"As you command, Dragon God."

Aerion smiled. "Your first order as a Dragon Lord of Primal Chaos will be to scatter the forces of the alliance and lead the Legion of Fire to victory! Anyone who does not bend is to be met with no mercy while those willing to serve should be spared. Is that clear?"

"Mn, I will do as you say, Dragon God. The alliance will be no more after I am done with them."

"Good, I expect only the best results from you."

Aerion went to another star realm, where one of his paths was looking over Qianye Ying'er. She was surrounded by several other God-Emperors, much like Xia Qingyue previously. With a single wave of his right hand, the entire alliance force on the star realm was frozen.

Heaven Absorbing Silver Claw.

Aerion took the alliance's cultivation strength for later and then he removed the ice with his fire. The Legion then ruthlessly slaughtered the cultivation-less alliance on the star realm while Aerion landed beside Ying'er.

"You fought well, my fiancée. This little war is due to end soon and with it, my conquest of the God Realm."

"What of the Northern Divine Region?"

"I'll let the devils keep their independence for a few years as there are more important matters at hand, such as the Crimson Crack. Speaking of more important matters, I have a wonderful gift for you before we get married. It is something that will greatly assist both of us when it comes to the way of the True Gods."

"What is this 'something'?"

"I'll tell you later as the battlefield isn't the best place."

"Hmph, so you intend to make it a surprise? Either way, I want to know what my position will be once I become your wife."

"You'll be one of the Celestial Dragon Emperor's wives which places you in a position that is above everyone else in Primal Chaos, except for my heir. That is how I see it."

"My position among your wives is what I meant, Aerion. Every God-Emperor can have countless concubines but only one God-Empress."

Aerion smiled. "I am the Dragon Emperor of the God Realm, not some God-Emperor so such concepts do not apply to me. Never will I take a concubine or place one wife above the other, if that's what you wished to know."

"Hmph, you should still select an Empress." Qianye Ying'er replied.

"No, that would cause unnecessary issues. I intend to choose my heir based on ability and not who his mother was. Therefore, all of my wives could be considered Empresses."

Qianye Ying'er wasn't exactly satisfied with his answer but she did not push the issue further. In truth, she believed that she was better than the rest in all aspects, mainly; beauty, background, status, and cultivation. She was widely regarded as the Goddess, after all. Only the Dragon Queen herself could compare with Qianye Ying'er in the God Realm when it came to beauty.

However, the 'God Realm' didn't exactly account for any of his wives or women from Blue Pole Star. Not yet, anyway.

"The Brahma Monarch Goddess, or should I say Brahma Heaven God Emperor, wishes to be the Celestial Dragon Emperor's main wife, eh? Hahaha, her ambition does not seem to be restricted to just cultivation anymore. Naturally, since they are all 'equal', your women will want to one-up each other."

Competition is a good thing, Rotias.

"True enough."

After a few days of battle, the alliance fell under the overwhelming might of the Celestial Dragon Emperor and his Legion of Fire. Led by their Dragon Emperor, the Legion of Fire was a truly frightening force which feared nothing, not even death. They were more than willing to sacrifice their lives for the greater cause, for their Emperor's grand vision. The first Dragon Lord of Primal Chaos, Long Bai, proved his worth by defeating the last two God-Emperors of the alliance and routing the rest of the rebels.

Upon shattering the alliance's forces, the Legion of Fire rallied on a single star realm in the eastern-most side of the Southern Divine Region. It could be considered as a border between the two Divine Regions. Why this place? Because Aerion intended to finish what he had started.

"As you all know, the alliance has fallen," Aerion announced. "But the Southern and Western Divine Regions have yet to be conquered which means the God Realm has yet to be conquered. Even more so, the entirety of Primal Chaos has yet to be conquered! It is this Dragon Emperor's ambition to unite Primal Chaos once and for all, under the banner of House Targaryen. Devils and gods... such petty feuds are not worth my time."

"In the end, every person, no matter their race, will be given the option to bend the knee or burn. If the Northern Divine Region must be purified and shown the light, then so be it, I will be more than willing to purify every last one of them! But would you be willing to be my flame, divine warriors of fire?"

Every soldier present bowed and displayed their resolve through four simple yet heavy words which shook both heaven and earth. "Yes, Your Divine Grace!"

Aerion smiled. "Excellent, I expected no less from my Legion. Long Bai, come here."

Dragon Lord Long Bai approached Aerion and bent the knee before him. "What does His Divine Grace wish of me?"

"I will grant you a blessing which will ensure a swift and decisive victory." Aerion's silver scales emerged on his index finger as he bestowed a large amount of cultivation strength onto Long Bai. It was that of four other God-Emperors which was enough to push him past the Divine Master Realm.

"This..."

"In my Divine name, you will lead the Legion of Fire and conquer the rest of the God Realm."

Long Bai nodded. "With your blessing, victory is all but guaranteed. This Dragon Lord will put the rebels in place and ensure absolute stability in your Divine name. I promise that the whole God Realm will be under House Targaryen in less than a year."

Aerion nodded. "You may rise and begin immediately."

Long Bai did not waste much time and neither did the Legion of Fire as they all flew into space. The only people who remained were Jasmine, Caizhi, Xia Qingyue, Qianye Ying'er since they weren't direct members of the Legion of Fire.

Aerion was glad that Jasmine was understanding and did not hate him for returning Xisu to the dead after he properly explained his reasoning. This had happened when the Divine army of the Eastern Divine Region was being gathered.

"I suppose we're not joining the conquest?" Jasmine stated.

"Mn, the Eastern Divine Region needs to be stabilised and prepared for the return of its 'heaven chosen' children." Aerion turned to the Moon God Emperor. "Qingyue, is the Vanishing Moon Celestial Palace ready for use?"

"Yes, it was recently supplied with quite a few valuable profound crystals."

"Then we will be leaving for the Snow Song Realm first."

~

Aerion made the walk to the Ice Phoenix City after leaving the Vanishing Moon Celestial Palace to settle a matter of great importance.

"Did you succeed in your battle against the alliance?" Feng Xue'er asked.

"Well, I wouldn't be here otherwise."

"The people of the God Realm are fools to believe that my dear husband could ever be corrupted by something as lowly as some darkness profound energy." Tai Xia stated.

"I was affected by it, Xia," Aerion replied. "But it wasn't enough to turn me into a devil. Nevermind that, the Eastern Divine Region and its borders are secured so you no longer have to stay in the Snow Song Realm. I've decided to make the Star God Realm my personal star realm so it's one of the options, along with Blue Pole Star, of course."

"I will be returning to the Illusory Demon Realm then." Haun Caiyi responded just as Aerion had predicted.

"That is fine but Daeron stays with me."

Daeron shook his head. "I want to go with mother."

Aerion felt betrayed for a moment.

Eh, don't ask me why you're not my heir in the future.

"The profound energy in Blue Pole Star is extremely thin so you'll fall behind Aurion. Are you sure about this decision, Daeron?"

"Of course, I'll just catch up later. Big Brother can hog all the glory for now."

Aerion chuckled. "Alright then."

"He truly is his mother's boy." Haun Caiyi laughed.

I can't win every battle.

Aerion looked at Feng Xue'er. "Xue'er, do you wish to return to Blue Pole Star as well?"

"Mn, but only temporarily."

"I'd like to visit my father so I'll be going as well." Tai Xia added.

"I see, we're all returning to Blue Pole Star." Aerion smiled.

My twenty-eighth nameday had just passed and I have yet to celebrate it. Hmm, a pity.

The Moon and Brahma Heaven God Emperors returned to their respective realms. Caizhi and Jasmine remained with Aerion as he travelled to Blue Pole Star using conventional means, space travel, of course. It did not take long with his current strength.

After a few hours upon returning to Blue Pole Star, Aerion laid in the gardens.

Finally, a sense of peace.

Well... not quite, there's still that Heaven Smiting Devil Emperor to deal with. Unfortunately, Vena destroyed the Night King to prevent me from making use out of her bloodline. Haha, but now I have the complete legacy and can decide my own Ancestral Goddess of Ice.

Originally, I thought of Xia Qingyue but Mu Xuanyin is a good candidate as well. Surge's legacy is also wide open yet I can't think of a suitable candidate. Decisions, decisions...
