Foot Washing Water? No, This Is a Blessing for Me, the Dragon Ancestor

In the farmhouse yard, inside the house.

Seeing the Jade Emperor drooling and chuckling foolishly, Zhang Yifan shook his head. He had no idea what his silly son was thinking to be grinning like that.

However, he didn't seem possessed.

Ignoring the Jade Emperor, Zhang Yifan finished washing his feet, dried them, and then carried the basin of foot-washing water outside.

Outside the house, in the courtyard, there was a pond.

This pond had some lotus flowers planted in it and some fish swimming around.

At this moment, the Seven Fairies and the Queen Mother were by the pond, admiring the moon and playing.

"Sister, look at that fish, why doesn't it look like a fish at all?" the Seventh Fairy, Tianyu, pointed at a golden fish in the pond and said.

"Little sister, what are you talking about? What fish doesn't look like a fish?"

"Exactly, if it's not a fish, could it be a dragon?"

The fairies and princesses chatted noisily, while the large golden fish in the pond rolled its eyes.

"Look, that fish just rolled its eyes!" the Seventh Princess pointed at the fish again.

"Let me see, which one?"

"That big golden fish."

The golden fish rolled its eyes again.

"Oh my, it's true!"

"Mother, look at that fish, it's actually rolling its eyes and looking down on us! Should we just kill it!" the Seventh Princess exclaimed indignantly, feeling looked down upon by a mere fish.

The Queen Mother was speechless and followed the direction her seventh daughter was pointing.

Upon looking, the Queen Mother's eyes narrowed.

This large golden fish, unremarkable at first glance, was not simple upon closer inspection!

Its cultivation was so profound that even she, a mighty being at the early Quasi-Saint stage, couldn't see through it.

Something was strange, very strange.

The Queen Mother stared at the fish, her mind racing.

This aura, why did it feel so familiar?

"Dragon Ancestor!"

Suddenly, the Queen Mother's eyes widened, her pupils contracting, and she exclaimed in disbelief.

Hearing this voice, the golden fish couldn't help but roll its eyes again.

Damn it, could it really be the Dragon Ancestor?

The Queen Mother rubbed her eyes, looking at the golden fish before her with some incredulity.

It's possible it's real!

Here, the Old Ancestor Qilin has become a Big Black Dog, so what's strange about him, the Dragon Ancestor, being a fish?

"Senior, are you truly the Dragon Ancestor?" the Queen Mother tentatively asked.

"That's right! It is I," the golden fish raised its head, its expression quite smug.

Even after hearing the golden fish's confirmation, the Queen Mother still felt a sense of shock.

This was truly the progenitor of the dragons, the Dragon Ancestor!

"Wow!"

The fairy princesses all let out exclamations of surprise.

They had experienced too many shocks today.

First, the Old Ancestor Qilin as a Big Black Dog, then the Golden Crow as a little bird, followed by food that increased cultivation upon consumption, and now they had discovered that the Dragon Ancestor resided in their grandfather's pond.

"I never expected this. I thought the Dragon Ancestor had been used by Dao Ancestor Hongjun to fill the Eye of the East Sea, but I didn't expect him to appear here," the Queen Mother mused.

"The Eye of the East Sea, can't it connect to this pond?" the golden fish retorted with an eye roll.

What the—!

The Queen Mother was momentarily speechless.

The Eye of the East Sea, connecting to here? To this pond?

The dignified Queen Mother couldn't figure out how to answer for a moment.

"Alright, alright, quickly make some space. The master will be coming out soon."

Seeing the Queen Mother in a daze, the golden fish grew impatient and asked them to move aside.

"Why is Grandpa coming out?" the Eldest Fairy asked curiously.

Just then, Zhang Yifan came out carrying the foot-washing water.

"What are you all doing here?" Zhang Yifan asked, looking at the women.

"Are you admiring the night view? It's much better here, Grandpa," the Seventh Fairy said with a giggle.

"The night view here is indeed good. No industrial exhaust pollution, and the starry sky is very clear," Zhang Yifan chuckled. As he spoke, he poured the foot-washing water into the pond and then went back inside.

Industrial exhaust pollution? What's that?

The Queen Mother and the fairies and princesses looked on in confusion.

But the golden big fish didn't care at all. Its eyes were practically shooting out golden light, and it was incredibly excited.

The moment Zhang Yifan poured out the foot-washing water, it swam into the area where the water was being dumped, moving rapidly. Its large fish mouth opened and closed quickly, as if it were eating something.

Just then, the Queen Mother noticed the abnormality of the Dragon Ancestor and couldn't help but ask curiously, "Uh, Senior, what are you doing?"

"What am I doing? Can't you see I'm grabbing treasures to eat!" the Dragon Ancestor exclaimed, extremely excited. Every night at this time was his happiest, most joyful, and most exhilarating moment.

"Treasures? What treasures are there?" the Queen Mother stared at the pond, puzzled. Where were the treasures? Zhang Yifan had just poured out a basin of foot-washing water.

"You can't see them? Look at this dead skin, this shed skin, isn't that it!" The Dragon Ancestor's eyes gleamed as he greedily swallowed the dead skin and shed skin that Zhang Yifan had scraped off his feet, even leaping up excitedly.

Oh, this!

"Ugh..." The Queen Mother gagged upon seeing this, almost throwing up.

Damn it.

So, these "treasures" were actually the dead skin and shed skin scraped from Zhang Yifan's feet.

This is just unbelievable!

"Hmm?" The golden big fish, the Dragon Ancestor, heard the Queen Mother's gagging sound and his eyes turned cold, showing his displeasure.

"My apologies, Senior, I couldn't help it. Please continue," the Queen Mother said with an awkward smile, gesturing for it to go on.

"Hmph, I know what you're thinking, but you know nothing. My Master's shed skin and dead skin contain more complete Great Dao laws than food. Swallowing even a piece is equivalent to tens of thousands of years of cultivation."

"You think this is just foot-washing water, but to me, it's a blessing! It's my supreme glory!" the Dragon Ancestor declared proudly.

This isn't foot-washing water; it's a blessing to me, the Dragon Ancestor!

Ah!

The Queen Mother was shocked again. The dead skin scraped from Zhang Yifan's feet actually contained more complete Great Dao laws than food?

No wonder the Dragon Ancestor was so frenzied! Anyone else would probably go mad.

"Ugh, it's still better to eat Grandpa's food," the Seven Fairies couldn't help but gag and say subconsciously.

Yes, that's right!

The Queen Mother jolted, snapping back to reality.

As a daughter-in-law, I don't lack food, so why would I think about that! the Queen Mother secretly rejoiced. Thankfully, she was a daughter-in-law and not some stray cat, dog, or fish pet. Otherwise, she probably wouldn't be much better off than this Dragon Ancestor.

Meanwhile, the golden big fish, the Dragon Ancestor, kept rolling its eyes. It thought, Cultivators, all laws return to one, all paths lead to the same destination. How can one achieve great things if they are concerned with such trivial external matters!

The Queen Mother then relayed everything that had happened by the pond to the Jade Emperor.

Upon hearing that the Dragon Ancestor was in the pond, the Jade Emperor was both surprised and delighted. He was surprised that his father, the Old Ancestor, was so powerful, with so many great beings in his courtyard. He was delighted that if there were so many great beings in his father's courtyard, then perhaps he, as the young master, could command them? If he could command them, then, hehehe. Thinking of this, the Jade Emperor chuckled.
