Evil Dragon: The young dragon I picked up keeps planning on becoming an empress-Chapter 443 - 275: Slaughter to the Abyss of Lost Ages
They were about to take away the offspring he was raising in the future, yet they still asked if he had any objections, only because he was currently the most powerful Judge in the Judgment Royal Court. If it were any other Demon Race members, considering the status and identity of these four old fellows, they wouldn’t even bother asking; they’d just take the person away.
It seemed that they had confirmed that the young Dragon had come from the future to this timeline, which is why they had come to him asking for the Dragon.
They were afraid that the young Dragon could leave at any time and return to the future.
He could not let them take the young Dragon away.
If the young Dragon were taken by them, it would be in grave danger.
These old fellows surely wanted to glean some information about the future from the young Dragon’s mouth.
It would be futile.
The young Dragon didn’t know much about the Abyss’ future, she had always lived in the Human World, and was completely ignorant about the history of the Abyss.
Even if they took her away, they wouldn’t be able to extract any useful information from her.
Lance, who had come outside the courts, flapped his wings and flew to the second-floor balcony. He patted the young Dragon’s head and shielded her behind him.
The future him was still waiting for the young Dragon to return and accompany him in his old age, he could not possibly let these four old fellows confine the young Dragon in this timeline.
Facing the four old fellows at once was troublesome. Normally, they’d have to fight desperately.
Now, considering the self-defense props that the future him had put in the Lucky Coin of the young Dragon, using up some of these items should allow them to leave this place and head to the Land of Chaos and Disorder.
"Lance, don’t forget your identity. You are a Judge of the Judgment Royal Court, responsible for the safety of the Abyss Royal City. Now, the Amethyst young Dragon hiding behind you might be from the future. Her every move could potentially affect our Abyss history.
If you think negatively, her coming from the future to our era might not only be to alter our history but also possibly to invade our Abyss.
Lance, you are also a member of the Abyss, tasked with the responsibility to protect the Abyss and the lives of countless members of the Demon Race. We know you regard this Amethyst young Dragon as family, but her presence is excessively dangerous. We suggest you temporarily hand her over to us.
Once we determine that her presence won’t affect the Abyss, we will then return her to you."
A Demon clad in a black robe with crossed arms tried to persuade Lance.
Lance was a capable member of his race; he didn’t want to push such a promising Demon to the other royal families because of his forcefulness.
The several great royal families of the Abyss seemed harmonious outwardly, but in reality, they were always competing behind the scenes. Each was hoping to consolidate the major royal families and elevate their own to imperial status.
They even hoped a Demon Emperor would rise again from the Abyss.
Only those with overwhelming power who could forcefully integrate the other royal families under their rule had a shot at becoming a Demon Emperor.

At present, no member of the Demon Race was powerful enough.
Every major royal family dreamed of nurturing a Demon that could suppress the other major families and become a Demon Emperor.
Lance was outstanding, and his strength was not weak, making him capable of suppressing other royal princes and princesses if cultivated properly.
For such an exceptional young Demon, it was much better to persuade him through conversation rather than forcing a confrontation.
The Demon with black scales on his face glanced at the three old fellows beside him; these three were probably just waiting for a conflict to erupt with Lance, to take the opportunity to entice him.
They wanted to take the Amethyst young Dragon and attract Lance, this outstanding Demon.
In their conception, given their status and their still relatively mild manner, Lance, the junior, should at least give them some face and let them take the young Dragon away.
But now, it seemed they had thought too much; Lance had no intention of letting them take the young Dragon.
He was even prepared to fight them.
Ah, the rashness of youth.
He even wanted to fight these old fellows.
"Go back, I won’t hand over the young Dragon to you. If you are prepared to forcefully take the young Dragon, then for her freedom, I’ll be forced to fight you. Additionally, I must remind you, if our fight harms the young Dragon,
and she gets injured... then prepare yourselves for my retaliation. Your descendants, the princesses of your clans, and heirs are all within my range of retaliation.
Don’t think I’m threatening you. If the young Dragon is truly hurt or even dies because of you, I will spare no expense to destroy the future hopes of your four clans.
You should have heard about my relationship with the young Dragon from the younger members of your clans. The young Dragon is my offspring, my daughter, and if you hurt my daughter before me, it’s only fair for me as her father to retaliate in the same way, right?"
Lance threatened the four old fellows verbally; with no confidence in an assured victory and fearing they might hurt the young Dragon during a fight, he resorted to this method to ensure they wouldn’t dare strike a lethal blow.
Daring not to mistreat the young Dragon lightly.
"Are you threatening us?!"
"I’m merely stating a fact. Consider this, if someone was taking your daughter away, what would your response be?"
"She’s not your daughter."
"Am I not aware whether I raised the offspring?"
"You’ve shown your true nature. Well then, let’s see if you have the strength to retaliate against us."
The Demon with crossed arms concluded and looked towards the other three old ones: "Do not think about dominating this young one any longer; from his words just now, it’s clear he’s not the kind of fellow who would willingly become a subsidiary of others."
