Chapter 534: His Oath
"Long Tingxuan, the first patriarch of the Silver Lightning Dragon clan... he might know about the Silver Lightning Dragon clan, right?" Aldrian thought.
"Mr. Tingxuan," Aldrian said, prompting the others to look at an old man who still appeared quite energetic and had few wrinkles. The man was stunned when Aldrian suddenly looked in his direction and called his name.
"Yes, Your Majesty?" he answered.
"Mr. Tingxuan, I want to ask what happened to the Silver Lightning Dragon clan. When I met Long Leiyun of the Silver Lightning Dragon clan, he asked for my help to avenge the Silver Dragon clan. Can you tell me the fate of your clan, if you know about it?"
Hearing Aldrian’s question, Long Tingxuan was silent for a moment before he parted his lips.
"The Silver Lightning Dragon clan is already extinct."
Aldrian was stunned. He couldn’t help but sigh. He had already guessed that something terrible had happened to the clan, and after knowing there had been a war, what he feared most had become reality. In war, the annihilation of a clan was not rare. Many bloodlines had been erased from the world, ending the history of long-standing families—something depressing, but not surprising.
The others also seemed to know what had happened to the clan, as they showed sad expressions.
"My apologies and condolences for bringing up a painful topic," Aldrian said. "I’ve already made a promise to avenge your clan. I’m not someone who takes my own promises and words lightly. I will keep that promise. If I can truly return to the peak, like in my past life, your clan will be avenged."
He spoke with a serious expression.
Long Tingxuan was stunned, but his eyes grew slightly teary before he kowtowed to Aldrian.
