Only the Ancestral Dragon and Xi were the heroes of the world!
Feng Xi conveyed this idea and successfully employed his grand art of motivational-salesmanship deception, knocking open the Dragon Ancestor's bewildered heart. Every word struck home, and little by little, they unified their front.
At this moment, they were no longer opponents! No longer enemies!
They were all great heroes fighting for the righteous path of the Primordial World, supreme champions throwing punches at those stray dogs and parasitic-crab-like Pangu incarnations!
The bigger picture had been completely opened up!
The light of universal salvation was scattered everywhere, and who knew how many worlds' radiance was shining.
They blurred the boundaries between clans. The people of the four seas and five lakes were all brothers, and the eight wastes and six directions were one family!
Since they were brothers... then your business was my business!
Even brothers had to keep clear accounts. Behind closed doors, they could debate who was higher or lower... but if an "external enemy" provoked them, they would unite as one and resist the enemy together!
Of course!
As for how much sincerity each side truly had in this exchange... perhaps only time could prove that.
Had the motivational mentor's lesson been useful?
Had the Dragon Ancestor, whose blood had been stirred by the provocation, truly been "rescued" successfully by the Emperor Yan, rising once more to fight for the justice of the Primordial World? Or had that fighting spirit never truly died from beginning to end, and was he still trying to attract Human Dao's angel investment in his predicament, not minding playing dumb and acting as a weapon while silently developing himself?
—After all, Human Dao had been willing to patiently deceive him... Setting everything else aside, could they perhaps discuss the debt problem?
