Chapter 281 Brazen Blackmail (2)
After a while, the ashen-faced Lei Qin folded back, but this time when she came back, she was followed by two guards, and the two guards worked together to lift a heavy wooden box and put it in front of Ji Fengyan .
"Grandpa..." Lei Qin didn't even want to look at Ji Fengyan, but just looked at Lei Kai hesitantly.
"Open." Lei Kai waved his hand.
Lei Qin bit her lip unwillingly, and hesitated for a long time before ordering someone to open the big wooden box.
There was also a long flat box in the wooden box, and the two guards carefully took it out, put it on the table beside it, and opened it slowly.
Inside the box, lay a heavy silver shield quietly. It was hard to tell what material it was made of, but both the skill and the shape were extremely exquisite. A lifelike totem of a dragon and a pair of giant wings were engraved on the shield. Unfolded, linked to both sides of the shield, two deep blue gemstones are inlaid in the dragon eyes, which are typical totems of ancient dragons, whether it is the dragon head or the slightly exposed fangs, they are all carved lifelike.
The origin of the Holy Dragon Empire has been rumored for a long time. It is said that at the beginning, when the ancient dragons disappeared for thousands of years, the founding father of the Holy Dragon Empire once saw a huge egg by chance with a stream, and it fell down by accident. He hatched that egg, but what hatched from the egg turned out to be a cub of an ancient giant dragon!
Back then, when the world was chaotic and the human race was weak, it was the era when giant dragons and alien creatures fought for hegemony. However, as time went by, the ancient dragons that once dominated the world gradually disappeared until they became extinct.
Their power and mystery have been passed down among the human race.
The founding father of the Holy Dragon Empire raised that giant dragon with his own hands. The tyranny of the ancient giant dragon had already surpassed all the fighting power that the human race had at that time, and it was precisely because of the appearance of this giant dragon that the Holy Dragon The empire has a history of founding a country and has become the most prosperous and powerful country in this continent.
Guarded by ancient giant dragons, none of the empires on the continent rushed to invade, and the Holy Dragon Empire gradually expanded from a small country at the beginning, and the only ancient dragon remaining on this continent was also regarded as the The Holy Dragon, and named the country after it.
However, with the fall of the first generation of Holy Dragon Emperor, the ancient giant dragon who was grateful to him also disappeared from the Holy Dragon Empire after his burial, and has never been seen again.
Thousands of years later, the Holy Dragon has become a spiritual symbol of the Holy Dragon Empire and a unique totem symbol of the royal family.
When the heavy shield carved with a giant dragon appeared in front of everyone in the Lei family, everyone's hearts trembled violently, and they looked at Lei Kai struggling.
Lei Kai ignored the resistance of his tribe, raised his head, and looked at the contented Ji Fengyan. His brows twitched involuntarily, but he still suppressed his anger and said, "Miss Ji, this is the Holy Dragon Shield. For the Jade Blood Exquisite Tree, I'm sorry about the matter, our Lei Family is willing to use this Holy Dragon Shield as compensation."
As soon as Lei Kai said this, everyone in the Lei family looked at Ji Fengyan with even more resentment.
However...
Ji Fengyan just glanced at the Holy Dragon Shield casually, then looked away, and said with a half-smile: "Patriarch Lei, are you kidding me? In the auction house, even your Holy Dragon Shield can't win the prize." You took pictures of the Jade Blood Exquisite Tree, but now you want to use it to pay me back, do you think I'm being taken advantage of?"
