Bygone Days

Dragon Lord!

Ao Chi cried out, her voice reaching Xu Yang's ears and stirring memories of the past.

Back when he had first entered this world, he had cultivated in the body of a greenfish, defeating formidable foes like the giant turtle step by step. He had seized the Blackwater Divine Seal and the Earth Deity cultivation method, becoming the new master of the Blackwater River—the Blackwater Dragon Lord.

Those days had been exceedingly carefree. There had been no real rivals, and the world of Demonic Beasts and Spirit Monsters had been far simpler than that of humans. After becoming Dragon Lord, he had essentially lived a life of idleness—raising fish, refining pills, eating, drinking, and making merry. He had been outrageously comfortable.

Even so, in those peaceful years, he had established a foundation of his own. Among the various clans of the Blackwater River, he had enlightened quite a few Spirit Monsters and spirit beasts, drilled several aquatic armies, and trained many disciples.

Ao Chi had been one of them. Her true body had been a little electric eel in the Blackwater River, carrying a thin trace of Chi Dragon bloodline. Using the authority of the Blackwater River God together with the characteristics of an Earth Deity Skill, he had enlightened her and accepted her as an inner disciple.

Unfortunately, only a few years after this little one entered his school, Xu Qingyu's happy life had come to an end. The Mara Realm invaded, the blood moon descended, and an Asura Demon General arrived at the Blackwater River. He had been forced to self-destruct his dragon pearl and the Blackwater Divine Seal, perishing together with his enemy in a clash of jade and stone.

That life had ended in such haste.

Whether he died or not did not matter
