Reincarnation of the Strongest Sword God - Side Stories Chapter 897 - Another Mortal God?

Flame Dragon God's Treasury, Central Plaza, Advanced Tent:

The representatives of the ten pseudo-apex powers all wore gloomy expressions as they sat at the round table, staring at their respective Magic Mirrors.

"Everyone, voice your thoughts," Tarnished Wind said, breaking the silence. "Do any of you know the origins of Dragon's Crown?"

Nobody spoke after Tarnished Wind. Everyone merely shook their head as they focused on the figures of the Dragon's Crown members displayed in their Magic Mirror, intent on uncovering any helpful information.

"Sure enough, no one knows," South Lake sighed. "Our luck is truly rotten, coming across a well-hidden apex power under such circumstances. It'll be difficult for us to appease the other party."

"Appeasing the other party shouldn't be difficult," Ember Dragon countered calmly. "While we might have organized the operation this time, that person was the one who asked for a fight. We can just compensate Dragon's Crown for its troubles afterward. At worst, we will have to sacrifice those involved. I doubt an apex power like Dragon's Crown will demand anything more. After all, we all have connections with apex powers. The other apex powers won't sit back if Dragon's Crown tries to take things too far."

"That's true." Tarnished Wind agreed with Ember Dragon. "Although we aren't subordinates of those apex powers, we trade with them a lot. If a hidden apex power tries to get involved in the Primordial Dragon Sanctuary and eliminate us all, it'd be no different from plundering the resources of other apex powers. Those apex powers won't sit still and do nothing. As a hidden apex power, I'm sure Dragon's Crown can understand this point.

"The problem is figuring out Dragon's Crown's goal in the Primordial Dragon Sanctuary. Dragon's Crown has hidden its existence so well until now, so why did it suddenly make such a high-profile appearance here? If we can't figure this out, we might unknowingly offend it in the future and get destroyed."
