"Dragon Lord, I already know the full story. My clansman was indeed at fault, but I cannot possibly hand him over to you! The elders of my race are on their way; could we discuss this matter?" Su Mo shot the man beside him a fierce glare!
This man was none other than the fellow who had previously filmed the battle between the North Sea Demon Race and the demons. Ever since hitting a wall at the East Sea Dragon Palace last time, he had returned to the Human Race and thought about it constantly. The more he thought, the itchier his heart became. So this time, he secretly slipped in and caused a massive disaster—he had actually slept with the Dragon King of the East Sea's Seventh Princess!
This fellow was named Liu Suifeng, a wastrel from a small family in Luo Shui City. His talent was ordinary, and ever since childhood, he had loved wandering everywhere. After the Red Dust Pearl activated its information-uploading function, he seemed to have found his calling. Every day, he searched for different places to upload content from. Gradually, he actually turned it into a profession, exchanging his reward points for cultivation materials every time he received them.
Before long, he slowly advanced to the Golden Immortal Realm. After that, his footsteps carried him beyond the Human Race's borders, and he began roaming the Primordial World. As he accumulated more and more points, it was as if the road of cultivation had suddenly opened before him. The true turning point came when he filmed the Battle of North Sea!
One hundred thousand points allowed him to purchase many spells and divine abilities in one go. Among them was the spell that had gotten him into trouble this time: the Water Transformation Art, which allowed his body to become water—formless and colorless!
After obtaining this art, he headed straight for the East Sea. Transforming into a stream of water, he entered the Dragon Palace without obstruction!
Ordinary aquatic beings could not detect him at all. Yet he got lost within the enormous Dragon Palace. What followed was the classic scene: he accidentally entered the Seventh Princess's bedchamber and was discovered by the dragon princess, who was innately close to the Law of Water. But rather than exposing him, she had him keep her company and chat. As time passed, one human and one dragon grew increasingly familiar! Could a man and a woman share a room for so long without things going wrong? Besides, cultivators all looked pleasing by ordinary standards.
Slowly, they fell for each other! With dry tinder meeting blazing fire, the sort of thing adults understood happened!
Unfortunately, the Dragon Clan differed from the Human Race. After a dragon's first intimate union, the scales near their eyes would shed while in human form. The Seventh Princess had been too occupied with romance to remember such a thing. The revelation threw the Dragon Palace into an uproar. Ao Guang, the Dragon King of the East Sea, exploded with rage. His precious daughter had been scooped up, pot and all, right under his own roof! He immediately sought to capture Liu Suifeng. Fortunately, the Seventh Princess risked her life to stop him, allowing Liu Suifeng to escape!
Tianyuan City
Ao Guang looked at the heavily guarded Human Race below, as well as the Taiyi aura emanating from the humans ahead. He slightly suppressed the fury in his heart. Though he was in the Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal Realm, he truly did not dare make a move and wipe out all of Tianyuan City!
The Dragon Clan's situation at present was simply terrible. During the war of the three races, the Dragon Clan's elites had all been wiped out! Every survivor was burdened by sin and karma. Let alone advancing their Cultivation Level, they could count themselves blessed by the Ancestral Dragon if they did not regress!
The reason the Dragon Clan could still hold on until now was because of the four Zenith Heaven Golden Immortals among the Four Sea Dragon Kings, along with several Quasi-Sages recuperating in the Dragon Clan's ancestral secret realm. But one of them had already failed to pull through and died. No one knew how much longer the rest could endure!
According to other Primordial World novels, around this period, the Dragon Clan's remaining foundations would soon be drained dry by Taiyi of the demon race. Taiyi had been frightened by the Dragon Clan's Quasi-Sages and had not forcibly incorporated them into the demon race. Those old fellows, meanwhile, had perished after clashing with Taiyi!
As their neighbor, Ao Guang knew very well just how deep the Human Race's foundations ran. A mere twenty thousand years—and the Human Race already had over a hundred Zenith Heaven Golden Immortals, with even more below them! That force alone was not something the Dragon Clan dared provoke, let alone the fact that the Human Race had Empress Nuwa above them!
Moreover, the Human Race city lord's attitude was fairly decent, so Ao Guang endured it and agreed!
A moment later, Ji He and Mount Tai Lord arrived.
When Su Mo saw the two Human Race figures, he finally let out a small sigh of relief. This shouldn't have anything to do with me now, right?
After learning the details, Ji He could not help looking at Liu Suifeng. What kind of mess was this? Not long ago, he had heard of a human who married someone from the Qingqiu Fox Race. Today, another fellow had appeared who had slept with a dragon woman. Each was more formidable than the last!
But this concerned both races, so he directly sent the matter to the Clan Leader for handling!
In truth, Jiang He had long known that Liu Suifeng had gone to the Dragon Palace. As a high-quality major client of the Red Dust Pearl, Jiang He was well aware of Liu Suifeng's movements. He simply had not expected the man to be so fierce that he even dared sleep with a dragon maiden!
After giving it some thought, Jiang He set out for Tianyuan City. The distance was no short one. Looking at the cities he passed along the way, Jiang He even wanted to set up a Teleportation Array to link all the territories together!
After meeting the Dragon King of the East Sea, the two began negotiations over the matter. After all, what had happened had already happened. Even if Ao Guang killed him, wouldn't his daughter still have been slept with for nothing? Better to simply let the two marry!
Still, Jiang He did not shortchange the Dragon Clan. After all, as a descendant of the dragon in his previous life, he still felt a certain kinship toward them!
Jiang He promised that the Dragon Clan could send their younger generation to study at the Martial Arts Academy in Luo Shui City. Dragons would also be free to travel through Human Race cities bordering the East Sea, where they would receive the same treatment as humans!
He also invited Ao Guang to tour the major cities of the Human Race for a time.
After Ao Guang returned to the Dragon Clan, he gathered his other three brothers to discuss their attitude toward the Human Race and explain the Human Race's current strength!
With the marriage of Liu Suifeng and the Dragon Clan's Seventh Princess, Ao Ling, many dragons began appearing throughout the Human Race's territory. Before long, people discovered that wherever dragons were present, the Human Race's fortune grew, the winds and rains came in season, and good luck never ceased!
The Dragon Clan also discovered that wherever humans gathered, the karmic burden they carried would gradually be washed away!
As for Ao Ling, who had married Liu Suifeng, the karmic burden on her body was now almost nonexistent!
News of these matters swiftly reached Jiang He and Ao Guang!
Both found it somewhat unbelievable. Jiang He knew that dragons were symbols of auspicious beasts and totems, but he had never expected them to provide such an immense boon to the Human Race!
When Ao Guang received the news, old tears streamed down his face. At last, he saw hope for the Dragon Clan. For so many years, the karmic burden upon the Dragon Clan had weighed so heavily on him that he could scarcely breathe. The pride he had once possessed as one of the younger generation's prodigies during the war of the three races had gradually been ground away!
At once, the Four Sea Dragon Kings headed together for the Dragon Clan Secret Realm!
Soon, the Human Race and the Dragon Clan began secret negotiations in Luo Shui City. This time, the Dragon Clan had sent five Quasi-Sages to lead the delegation. All were late-stage Primordial Golden Immortals—late-stage Quasi-Sages, since Hongjun had not yet preached the Dao in the Dragon Clan's era. Yet Jiang He saw that every one of them was injured; they likely could not bring out much of their combat strength!
To demonstrate sincerity, Jiang He had Empress Nuwa's statue brought over!
The five Dragon Clan Quasi-Sages thought Jiang He was using Empress Nuwa to pressure them. And though they were right, they had no choice but to endure it!
After both sides made their case, they confirmed that the two races indeed shared a special bond in which unity benefited them both. Thus, beneath the witness of Empress Nuwa's statue, the Dragon Clan became the Human Race's steadfast ally.
Before Empress Nuwa's statue.
Ao Guang, the Dragon Clan's current Clan Leader, wore a solemn expression as he bowed to the statue. "Empress Nuwa above, I, Ao Guang of the Dragon Clan, today represent the Four Sea Dragon Clans in forming an eternal bond of friendship with the Human Race. To demonstrate the sincerity of this alliance, the Dragon Clan is willing to become the Human Race's Guardian Totem. I ask Empress Nuwa to bear witness!"
At that moment, Empress Nuwa's statue was shrouded in golden light. The statue transformed into Empress Nuwa's dharma body. "Granted!"
As soon as the word "Granted" fell, Nuwa's dharma body transformed into golden light and scattered over the Dragon Clan Quasi-Sages present. In an instant, every hidden wound on the five Quasi-Sages was healed, restoring them to their peak condition!
For a time, all members of the Four Sea Dragon Clans throughout the Primordial World seemed to hear the voices of Ao Guang and Empress Nuwa!
Their expressions stirred with excitement. They were not angered that Ao Guang had lowered his status to become the Human Race's Guardian Totem. Rather, hearing Empress Nuwa's voice filled them with joy. They too were now a race protected by a Sage!
The Dragon Clan's bitterness over these years was truly beyond words!
After the war of the three races, the Dragon, Phoenix, Qilin three races had borne endless karmic burden from heaven and earth. The surviving members could not advance even an inch in cultivation, while those born afterward found cultivation as difficult as climbing to heaven! Now, in the Primordial World, they had fallen into a state where countless races bullied them! Ordinarily, they did not even dare show themselves in the Primordial World!
Some races even boasted of eating dragons to proclaim their own strength! How laughable—why had they not dared say such things during the war of the three races? They only knew how to bully the fallen descendants of the Dragon Clan!
But now that they had the Human Race and Empress Nuwa backing them, their once-bent backs instantly straightened!
Do not think it was a joke to say the Human Race would stand behind the Dragon Clan. One only needed to know the Human Race's image among the races of the Primordial World today: they protected their own, and they did so with extreme unity! If one person was beaten, they summoned an army of thousands and tens of thousands!
The races that had once secretly ambushed Human Race adventuring parties had all vanished. Everyone knew perfectly well where they had gone!
Now that the Human Race had Empress Nuwa at their back and had no ambition to contend for dominance over the Primordial World, who would have to be out of their mind to offend that pack of madmen!
