Wordlessly Huang Xun strolled towards Cain's bed, Huang Dai following closely behind her. With each step she took, the Aura Tracker crystal started to shine brighter while vigorously pulsating. 

Feeling the change within her hand, Huang Xun couldn't stay calm. Gradually she was even beginning to feel a slight stinging sensation. 

Then, an unbelievable situation occurred. 

Immediately when Huang Xun got within a foot from Cain's bed, loud cracking noises burst from the Aura Tracker crystal!

Huang Xun swiftly raised her palm, both her and Dai intently staring into the crystal. To their horror, the crystal started to rapidly crack all over. 

The speed of the cracks was alarming, almost appearing like it was going to burst open!

Just what was going on? 

Huang Xun briefly snapped her eyes to the bed and then back on the crystal. Could Cain's life aura source truly be this potent to the degree of affecting a God Galaxy item?!

Such a feat was truly too frightening! 

After all, this was an item imbued with the Divine Essence of the Heaven and Earth! This was essence that completely surpassed anything from the Lower Realm!

But as Huang Xun nearly recoiled in horror, a blinding green flash temporarily blinded the siblings. 

A resounding shatter, akin to thousands of glass shards breaking, burst into Huang Xun and Dai's eardrums.

In this instance, the Aura Tracker crystal completely burst open! It simply couldn't handle the intensity of Cain's vibrant life aura! 

"This…this…?!" 

Huang Xun and Dai's eyes instantly flashed back open. What they saw nearly frightened them out of their wits. 

Upon Huang Xun's palm, there was no Aura Tracker crystal. All that was left were simply tiny pieces of crystal shards!

Silence, complete and utter suffocating silence, fell between the siblings. Neither knew what to say or think in this scenario. 

It wasn't until after what seemed like hours passed that Huang Dai finally spoke up.

He felt his throat spasm as he struggled to say, "E-even for ordinary time, this will be far too strange. Cou-could this really mean that he can actually cultivate?! Isn't this just too fantastical?!"

It was like both his and Huang Xun's world was flipped entirely on their head. All that they thought they knew shattered into tiny bits and pieces, never to reform ever again. 

Even when ignoring that the Aura Tracker crystal had somehow shattered, the mere fact the Draconic Aura signature was so intense gave it all away. 

With this, it should be case close; no more questions are needed.

However, Huang Dai and Xun felt as if they had just stumbled upon one of the greatest secrets in the universe. 

After all, how could they suddenly discover that Cain could cultivate while their best World Spirit Masters identified him as a tragic case?

Additionally, neither Huang Dai nor Xun can act as if someone else lived within Cain's room. 

The only people who can enter these Royal Chambers are other direct Royal children. And their other siblings have zero reasons to ever sleep in Cain's bed. 

Moreover, a particular scent permeated the room, and Huang Dai and Xun recognized it as only Cain's scent.

With all this in mind, Huang Xun's mind went into overdrive. Her puzzlement rapidly drained from her face, now replaced by a harsh critical light. 

There were many things she still couldn't possibly understand about this situation. But one sure fact is that their grandmother has done something heaven-shaking for Cain! At least, she is very possibly directly involved in Cain's possible cultivation discovery.

All of Huang Xun's thoughts led back to precisely two months ago. That time was exactly when she gave her special drink to Cain with the pretense of helping out his lifeforce. 

Her original intention was to induce Cain and Kali into a coma for her own plans, not really caring about how negatively it would affect their health. 

But beyond her expectation, Cain awoke right back up the next day with seemingly zero side effects.

After that, Huang Lei reported to her that Cain acted just a bit different but nothing too major. Following that, a sudden mandatory meeting was called. Then, he and Kali suddenly vanished under the pretense that their grandmother was guiding them. 

On their own, these events seem too weak to go together. At best, they have a flimsy connection of being a strange coincidence. 

But this was all when considering that Cain couldn't cultivate. 

Now that the revelation was plainly laid out for them, something definitely was amiss. 

Arrogant and rigid as she is, Huang Xun wouldn't dare question her Supreme Dragon Elders' ways.

Since the Aura Tracker crystal intensely reacted this way, obviously, Cain could cultivate. And not just cultivate, but also have an underlying potential that can prove to be considerably valuable!

As a deep thinker, Huang Xun slowly connected these thoughts, bringing her to a near firm conclusion. 

Of course, she wouldn't say that she's 100% right in her theory. But the leads she has now are more than enough for further investigation.

A light breath spewed from Huang Xun's mouth. Her shoulders sagged as if she experiencing a sudden drop of heavy workload. Then, in a slow voice, she said, "Dai, you might as well accept it. Cain can cultivate, and our grandmother most likely has a major hand in this."

"Hm?" Huang Dai instantly snapped out of his stupor, his thoughts chaotically stirring. 

While he could accept that Cain could magically cultivate now, he didn't see how their grandmother had any connections.

He had even personally witnessed their grandmother failing to cure their younger siblings. So just how could she be possibly involved after so many years? 

As if Huang Xun could sense Dai's confusion, she continued to slowly speak.

"Truthfully, I don't believe my own theories are 100% right. But in essence, Cain, who had zero cultivation before, somehow broke through a drink that had Dragon essence in it. Mind you, this essence could even ruin a minor Nascent Formation cultivator, yet he so easily shrugged it off. Then, after awakening, his personality changed just slightly, and Lei described his eyes as if he grew just slightly overnight. And after that, Royal grandmother suddenly took him and Kali away. Are you following me so far?"

Staying silent, Huang Dai seriously contemplated her words. Looking deep into these small events, now armed with new knowledge, he could faintly see how Huang Xun was raising so many suspicions. 

In any case, the action of their aloof grandmother was far out of character. She has never been willing to guide any of the younger generations throughout the entire history of their Royal Family.

And while Shi Wei dotes on Cain and Kali numerous times, she never went in-depth about cultivation, knowing that they will never be able to properly cultivate. 

The fact that at least one of them can cultivate would be a significant game-changer.

"Ok…so Royal Grandmother has secrets that she keeping from all of us…" Huang Dai's brows still closely furrowed in great puzzlement. "But, just why is she keeping it a secret? And for that matter, I still don't understand how this is possible."

Huang Xun shook her head. "Neither do I know of her means. But the more I think about it, the more I realize there was to that sudden meeting we all had to participate in. I think…I think it was planned that the Dragon Emperor just so happen to have news that he needed to give out. In the end, we need to figure out this rabbit hole. This will affect our entire family. No matter our personal feelings, Cain needs to return home now. Many things can change with this new involvement."

"So what should we do now? Are you thinking about getting the Ancient Dragon Rules involved? I mean, that would be our only way to get anything done." Huang Dai curiously suggested, entirely on board with whatever plan Huang Xun has brewing.

"The Ancient Dragon Rules…" Huang Xun's eyes glazed over in deep thought. 

In their hierarchy, the ones who have the most control are the Ancient Dragon Emperors and Empresses.

The current Dragon God Emperor is undoubtedly powerful and wise. But he still isn't near the levels of their Ancient powerhouses.

Each Ancient Dragons lived for at least dozens of millennials, having wisdom that far surpasses anyone of them can come up with.

And most importantly, each of them has overwhelming strength! 

Their cultivation is unfathomably deep, almost seeing god-like to both younger and Elder Dragons. 

In their generations, each Ancient Dragons would be significantly revered as immense heaven-defying geniuses who can sweep through all competitions. Now with so many years passing, their strength never stagnated, only gradually grew to mind-shattering levels.

All of this is how their Huang Dragon Royal Family can stand tall despite their far shorter history. 

But at the same time, the distribution of strength isn't all harmonious. 

These Ancient beings all have overflowing pride that isn't willing to so easily back down.

As powerhouses that can command billions of lives, these Ancient beings naturally have determined beliefs that are incredibly unwilling to change. As a result, they all have their own methods on just how they develop their Royal Family.

And the problems come when these ideals clash with each other. 

When stark ideals clashed, the test of might quickly became involved. It was the most logical sense of progression, after all.

There are no rigid rules or regulations on how anyone should use their powers. So when things devolve to a point where simple words can't be used, Martial strength will be the final decider! 

With greater Martial strength, it is realistically impossible for someone to go against their ideals. Unless they want to continue to torture themselves, eventually meeting a foolish dead end.

However, when it comes down to that everyone's Martial strength is equal, that is finally when compliances must take place. 

At the end of the day, none of the Ancient Dragons want to see their Royal Family stagnant or grow weaker.

So when it comes down to issues that can affect the entirety of their Family, the Ancient Dragons will need to reach a democratic decision. 

This was one of the Ancient Dragon rules that were passed down from generation to generation. 

And for a situation concerning a direct Royal child who was suddenly cured of an incurable disease, it should be enough to call for an Ancient meeting. 

Understanding this, Huang Xun swiftly turned around, strolling towards the door.

Without looking back, she said, "Come on. We need to inform either Royal Mother or Father about this. They will be able to set up the Ancient meeting." 

Surges of anticipation swelled within Huang Dai. He never cared for his younger brother before, but if he was a true Martial talent, they all would be able to accomplish far more valuable things. 

Without any more unnecessary words, Huang Dai and Xun strolled out of Cain's room, their parents as the only destination within their minds.
