Four-Nothing True Man and Yellow Dragon Instantly Become Rich Second Generation, Journey to the East Sea!

Yellow Dragon had been wandering the Primordial World, getting by well enough on the Nebula Staff, a high-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure gifted by his master.

Suddenly, a Jade Slip from his master arrived.

"Disciple, you are of the Dragon Race by birth. Now the Dragon Race faces a calamity and needs you to go and take charge. Go at once—do not waste time."

Facing his master's command, Yellow Dragon naturally had to obey.

But his attitude toward the Dragon Race was somewhat complicated.

His original form was the Mysterious Yellow Qi, the root and foundation of a primordial God and Devil.

Yet when he transformed, his origin was damaged. Fortunately, a single drop of First Dragon Essence Blood had been left behind.

He devoured the First Dragon Essence Blood and finally succeeded in transforming, becoming the Yellow Dragon True Person of today.

But in the end, his origin was still that of a fur-and-scale creature, unworthy of Yuanshi's regard.

After transforming, Yellow Dragon first went to cultivate among the Dragon Race for a time.

After joining the Exposition Sect, he naturally understood the Dragon Race's predicament and wanted to lend some support.

Ao Guang, who saw things clearly, spoke bluntly.

"Clan brother, do not trouble yourself over the Dragon Race. That you were able to join the Exposition Sect is already a path forward for the Dragon Race."

"The Yuqing Saint does not favor fur-and-scale, wet-born, egg-laid beings. Do not return to the Dragon Race again—remember this well."

Both sides were doing their utmost for the Dragon Race, yet they could only go their separate ways.

At the same time, after joining the Exposition Sect, Yellow Dragon felt himself disliked by his master.

No divine powers, no treasures, no cultivation realm, no disciples.

A complete Four-Nothing True Man—bearing only the empty title of a Saint's personal disciple, forced to bide his time in the Exposition Sect.

It was only recently that his master suddenly summoned him and bestowed the high-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure, the Nebula Staff.

A small gesture, yet it warmed Yellow Dragon's heart and filled him with ecstatic joy.

"Master hasn't forgotten me! Master doesn't hate me!"

But suddenly being sent to aid the Dragon Race—what was that about?

Yellow Dragon frowned, muttering in confusion.

"Master despises fur-and-scale beings. Could this be a test to see my attitude toward the Dragon Race?"

These words fell into Yuanshi's ears, and he slammed his hand against the desk before him.

Desk HP -1 -1 -1...

At the same time, he sighed, gazing into the distance with some melancholy.

Inside the Eight Scenery Palace, Yuanshi suddenly frowned and asked.

"Is my dislike of fur-and-scale, wet-born, egg-laid beings really that obvious?"

Tongtian suddenly turned his head, staring intently at Yuanshi's profile, and said with utter seriousness.

"Second Brother, you might as well have those words written on your face."

Yuanshi glanced at Tongtian, then abruptly changed the subject.

"Come, let your elder brother test you on the strategies we discussed earlier. How well have you understood them?"

Tongtian's face was full of bitterness as he turned away.

He hadn't understood a thing!

Yellow Dragon returned to the Dragon Race with a nervous heart.

But the moment he stepped through the gates of the Dragon Palace, he saw the Four Dragon Kings—Ao Guang, Ao Run, Ao Qin, and Ao Shun—lined up in welcome.

"We welcome Clan Brother Yellow Dragon's return to the Dragon Race!"

Yellow Dragon was stunned. Before he could react, he was surrounded by the dragons and ushered into the Dragon Palace.

He looked up and saw in the hall—

Ao Guang personally presented a Fangtian Halberd, saying with a smile, "Clan brother, this is the high-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure, the Profound Yuan Dividing Water Halberd. It was the supreme treasure of the ancient Dragon Race when they conquered the Four Seas."

Ao Qin held a crown in his hands, cheerfully saying, "This is the high-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure, the Water-Repelling Golden Crystal Crown. It can ward off all laws, impervious to water and fire."

At the same time, one could see Immortal Fruits piled high on the table—Flat Peaches, Yellow Plums, Dragon Blood Coral, and other Innate Spiritual Roots stacked like mountains.

These treasures were rare even in the Exposition Sect.

Ao Run, standing by the table, waved his hand grandly and said with great authority, "Clan brother has carved out a different path for our Dragon Race. These Immortal Fruits are naturally yours to take."

Ao Shun, holding a single scale in his hand, explained.

"This scale is a manifestation of the remnant soul of our Dragon Race's ancient great power, Torch Dragon, containing the top-tier divine ability—the Time Reversal Scale Art. It should naturally be granted to you, clan brother!"

Time Reversal Scale Art!

One of the top-tier divine abilities in the Primordial World, capable of briefly manipulating the flow of time. It was the signature ability of the Dragon Race's great power, Torch Dragon.

Yellow Dragon held the wine cup that Ao Guang had shoved into his hands, his hands trembling slightly with excitement.

"Fellow Daoists, why treat me so generously?"

Hearing this, Ao Guang stared at Yellow Dragon with a bewildered expression.

"Clan brother, did you sneak back on your own?"

Yellow Dragon quickly shook his head in response.

"No, no. My master said the Dragon Race was in trouble and ordered me to come and take charge."

At these words, Ao Guang breathed a sigh of relief, a smile returning to his face.

"Then it's settled. The Sage taking the initiative to send you, clan brother, shows that he holds no grudge against the Dragon Race and even intends to show us favor."

"Since he openly allows you, clan brother, to connect with the Dragon Race, then naturally the Dragon Race must treat you generously in return."

"Coming from our Dragon Race, I won't boast about anything else, but we never lack for wealth. Take whatever treasures, Immortal Fruits, or artifacts you wish."

"As long as you, clan brother, fare well in the Exposition Sect, the Dragon Race will prosper alongside you. Perhaps we can even revive our ancient prestige."

"Clan brother, do not refuse. Accept it quickly!"

With that, the Dragon Kings of the Four Seas all piled heavenly treasures and earthly rarities before Yellow Dragon.

Yellow Dragon wore a completely dumbfounded expression, sighing inwardly.

"This... a penniless kid suddenly becomes a top-tier rich second-generation in the Primordial World?"

He gradually adapted, leaning back in his chair with a smile.

"Now this is what sect heritage looks like!"

"Come, drink!"

Meanwhile, within the Southern Blazing Undying Volcano, Li Yuan was consolidating his physical realm.

He naturally did not forget to clock in and record his daily Diary.

[I didn't expect to recruit Kong Xuan into the Exposition Sect right after coming down the mountain. A pretty good harvest. But I wonder where that Six-Ears is.]

Inside Biyou Palace, Tongtian's eyes gleamed with sharp light as he let out a soft chuckle.

"Second Brother taught me the art of scheming for a long time. Why not scheme for this Six-Ears?"

"Since he's mentioned in Junior Martial Nephew Li Yuan's Diary and is famed alongside Kong Xuan, he should naturally enter my Interception Sect."

[Six-Ears, one of the Four Primordial Monkeys, skilled in hearing, able to discern principles, knowing all things. If taught by a Sage, he might not be inferior to Kong Xuan.]

Tongtian was already grinning wildly.

"Hehehe, he must enter my Interception Sect. This Daoist must be the one to teach him. The Four Primordial Monkeys—the foundation of the Chaos Demon Ape—powerful!"

[But as for seeking out Six-Ears, I'll leave it to fate. If I happen to meet him, having him join the Interception Sect would be a fine choice.]

Tongtian slammed his hand on the table with a sharp crack, shouting excitedly.

"Yes!"

"Exactly right!"

"He should join the Interception Sect—a wise choice!"

[For now, the Dragon Race has shown me respect. I can't let them truly be blamed by the Demon Court. I'd better go check on the situation. It's also a good entry point to ease the Wu-Demon conflict.]

Li Yuan nodded slightly, saving and uploading the text file.

Just then, the system's voice echoed in his mind.

[Ding! Congratulations, Host, for accumulating six thousand years of diary writing. You have received a System Critical Strike Reward!]

[Ding! Congratulations, Host, for receiving the system reward: Eastern Emperor Taiyi's Essence Blood!]

The moment Li Yuan saw the system reward, a question mark seemed to appear above his head.

"So you're telling me you're dead set on plucking Golden Crow feathers from those two Demon Emperors?"

"Forget it. Time to make a trip to the Eastern Sea!"
