My wife who comes from a wealthy family-Chapter 935 - 936 Critical Situation

Boom!

The crowd exploded into chaos!

Thousands of spectators wore expressions of utter disbelief!

"What?! The champion, Ye Wudao, is actually a human?!"

"You’ve got to be kidding me..."

"This is absurd!"

Ye Wudao felt his heart jolt, sweat seeping from his palms, yet he forced himself to stay calm on the surface.

"Nonsense!" the old Dragon King roared. "A dignified dragon clan competition—how could a human infiltrate?"

"The Dragon King is absolutely right!"

"It is a humiliation for our dragon clan that a mere human could take the championship of our grand competition!" a group of dragon elders echoed in fury.

Four Supreme Elders sneered coldly, their razor-sharp gazes fixed firmly on Ye Wudao.

"Boy, you may have fooled others, but you cannot fool us!" the scar-faced Supreme Elder sneered sinisterly. "We cultivate the secret arts of the dragon clan. One glance is enough to reveal your true identity!"

The old Dragon King, the Grand Elder, and every dragon expert stared daggers at Ye Wudao!

The entire crowd watched Ye Wudao, waiting for his response!

Hu!

Ye Wudao took a deep breath and answered boldly, "Yes, I am indeed human!"

Boom!

Dragon Island fell into dead silence!

Not a sound to be heard!

The air itself seemed to have lost its voice!

No one knew who lost their composure first, but a shrill scream shattered the silence!

"What the hell? Wudao is human?!"

"This is... unbelievable!"

"A human managed to infiltrate Dragon Island and even won first place in the dragon clan competition?!"

As soon as Ye Wudao acknowledged the truth, the entire dragon clan erupted, each pair of eyes now seething with fury as they glared at him.

Dragons and humans were mortal enemies!

A feud as deep as fire and water!

An irreconcilable hatred!

"Strip him of his title as champion!"

"Kill him!"

"Kill this human!" The shouts of enraged dragons spread everywhere, supported by tens of thousands.

"My god, I never thought Young Master was human..." Black Fox whispered, utterly shocked.

"This is bad!" Long Mie said, worry etched across his face.

"You insolent brat! You court death!" the Grand Elder roared in a fury, preparing to strike, only to be stopped by the Dragon King’s shout. "Enough!"

"Yes." The Grand Elder dared not defy the Dragon King’s command and lowered his head.

The Dragon King locked his gaze onto Ye Wudao. His aged eyes shone with sharpness as he asked, "Why did you come to Dragon Island?"

The crowd stared at Ye Wudao with inquisitive eyes!

"Yeah!"

"Why would a human risk their life to come to Dragon Island, even participating in the dragon clan competition?"

The Grand Elder sneered, "This brat clearly came to show off. Besides, the rewards for our clan’s competition are extraordinary!"

"Ridiculous!" A voice of fury interjected.

Who?

Everyone turned their heads.

Long Mie stood up, looking indignant as he protested, "Ye Wudao is my brother, a once-in-a-millennium genius of the human race! How could someone of his stature care about showing off? As for the rewards mentioned by the Grand Elder, that’s even more laughable. He’s already reached this stage—do you think he’d care for mere trifles?"

This...

The Grand Elder’s face turned embarrassed!

Many in the audience nodded in agreement!

"He’s absolutely right!"

"Wudao’s talent is unparalleled not just among humans, but even within the dragon clan!"

"Long Mie, shut your mouth!" The Grand Elder barked angrily. "Mingling with a human is a grave sin! Even though you achieved third place in the competition, I’ll make sure you face punishment!"

"Do as you please!" Long Mie replied with an indifferent expression.

"You—you...!" The Grand Elder was furious.

The Dragon King turned back to Ye Wudao and said, "Your true purpose here is the Blood Dragon Crystal, isn’t it?"

"Yes," Ye Wudao admitted with a nod.

"The Blood Dragon Crystal is indeed invaluable, but it shouldn’t be worth risking your life as a human genius. Am I wrong?" the Dragon King asked.

"My fiancée is gravely ill, and only the Blood Dragon Crystal can cure her. That’s why I came to Dragon Island!" Ye Wudao replied.

Hiss!

The crowd gasped in shock!

"It turns out it’s for the sake of his fiancée!"

"Wudao is truly a man of deep love and unwavering loyalty!"

"Respect!"

Many in the audience looked at Ye Wudao with admiration and praise!

The Dragon King’s gaze softened, his eyes holding a hint of approval as he said, "Since this is your first offense, and your intentions are not malicious, I’ll let you go!" He waved his hand dismissively.

What?!

The Dragon King’s words sent fresh waves of shock throughout the crowd!

"The Dragon King shows mercy by sparing him!"

"Truly worthy of being a king—his heart is as vast as the seas!"

"Respected Dragon King," Ye Wudao clasped his fists in urgency, "I truly require the Blood Dragon Crystal! If you would lend it to me, I’m willing to pay any price!"

"This price is beyond what you can bear," the Dragon King said with a shake of his head.

"Please, Dragon King, name it. No matter the cost, I will accept it without regret or hesitation!" Ye Wudao vowed.

"What if the cost is your life?" the Dragon King asked.

The entire arena collectively held their breath, keenly watching Ye Wudao!

"If the Dragon King grants me the Blood Dragon Crystal, I will offer my life immediately!" Ye Wudao declared without a trace of hesitation.

"You!" The Dragon King hadn’t expected such a resolute response, and his heart was stirred!

"They say even heroes fall for beauty. Are you truly willing to pay such a steep price for a woman?" the Dragon King asked, perplexed.

"Willing!" Ye Wudao said firmly, without pause.

Seated above, Long Qingyue’s bright eyes grew misty, deeply moved by Ye Wudao’s words.

Many female audience members were now sobbing uncontrollably!

"Who says all humans are deceitful and cunning?"

"This Ye Wudao values loyalty and righteousness! He is a true man!"

"Respect!" Many members of the dragon clan gave their heartfelt comments!

The Dragon King retrieved a blood-red crystal adorned with intricate dragon patterns, emanating mysterious power—it was undoubtedly the Blood Dragon Crystal!

"I don’t want your life. I want you to complete a task for me!" the Dragon King stated.

Ye Wudao’s eyes lit up as he replied, "Respected Dragon King, please tell me your wish!"

"A sacred relic of our clan was lost in the Abyssal Depths of the ocean. I want you to retrieve the Dragon Soul Jade Pendant!" the Dragon King explained.

Woah!

The Abyssal Depths!

The crowd erupted once more!

Long Mie’s face turned pale as he exclaimed, "No! The Abyssal Depths are a death zone! No one has ever returned alive from there!"

"Alright!" Ye Wudao agreed without hesitation.

"Good! You’re a man. As a special exception, I’ll lend you the Blood Dragon Crystal!" The Dragon King tossed the crystal toward Ye Wudao.

Ye Wudao’s eyes gleamed with excitement as he prepared to catch it.

At the critical moment, a massive hand slammed into Ye Wudao, snatching the Blood Dragon Crystal away. It was none other than the scar-faced Supreme Elder!

Thud!

Ye Wudao spat blood, clutching his chest as he staggered back.

"Supreme Elder Long Ba, what is the meaning of this?" the Dragon King demanded coldly.

"Dragon King, this human is our sworn enemy! The Blood Dragon Crystal, such a precious treasure, must not fall into his hands!" Long Ba growled angrily.

"That’s right! How could such a prized artifact be entrusted to a sly, conniving human?"

"Dragon King, let us kill this boy, and we’ll return the Blood Dragon Crystal to you!" The Supreme Elders exchanged murderous glances and nodded in agreement.

A corpulent Supreme Elder stepped forward, his presence exuding overwhelming power—he was at the peak of the Unity Realm Stage!

"Damn, Unity Realm Stage peak!"

"Wudao’s in serious trouble now!"

"How dare you?!" The Dragon King roared in fury. "Stand down!"

However, the Supreme Elders held elevated status within the clan; while they were not equals to the Dragon King, they did not necessarily obey his commands!

"Brat, dying by my hand will be an honor for you!" The corpulent Supreme Elder sneered, launching a deadly punch at Ye Wudao.

It was over!

Ye Wudao’s pupils shrank. He couldn’t even see the elder’s attack!

"Young Master!" Black Fox screamed.

"Old Ye!" Long Mie roared in anguish.

Just as the attack was about to connect, a thunderous roar erupted like the wrath of ancient heavens, shaking all of Dragon Island. "HOW DARE YOU?!"
