Whether a group of initially loyal subordinates from the Azure Sea, who pledged allegiance to the Nine-headed Worm, and those mixed-blood dragon descendants can truly threaten the Nine-headed Worm enough to make him change his mind, neither Ao Lie nor Fang Xing can tell for sure. Probably even those dragon descendants themselves couldn't understand why the Nine-headed Worm confined them initially, severing ties with them to avoid being massacred. They only know that the Nine-headed Worm not only devoured their mother but after devouring her, showed no remorse or sentimentality, even stating that he didn't consider them family; if they crossed him once, he would kill them all...
Would such a heartless person really have any lingering sentiments as Ao Lie suggested?
