A Son of Destiny Gets a Wife Thrown at Him the Moment He Leaves the Beginner Village
[Day 47 of entering the Secret Realm]
After waiting for several days, the opportunity finally arrived.
[Alien Race launched another massive invasion; in the distance, the flashes and deafening roars of colliding energy echoed continuously.]
[Seizing this opportunity, Long Yu let out a low shout, and a surge of powerful Spiritual Power erupted, causing the Heaven and Earth Law to manifest!]
[The Dharma Manifestation Image clenches its fist and unleashes a barrage of punches at the pre-marked spots beneath your feet!]
[Boom! Boom! Boom!...]
The earthquake trembled violently, and debris flew everywhere.
[After dozens of punches, a bottomless crater was smashed out.]
[But that's not enough; below lies a thick layer of solid rock.]
[Long Yu manipulated her Dharma Manifestation, bombarding it continuously for nearly half an hour, a slight sheen of sweat appearing on her forehead.]
Finally, after a heavy blow, you vaguely saw a dark red light shining through the flying debris below!
"I've got it!" you exclaimed in surprise.
[Long Yu dispersed her Dharma Manifestation, breathing slightly heavily.]
[The two of you carefully climb down the steep path that had been forcibly carved out.]
[Below was indeed Grotto Heaven, what originally appeared to be a huge underground cavern, later buried due to a major war or geological shifts.]
[After passing through several narrow crevices in the rocks, the sight before you takes your breath away--]
A gigantic dragon egg, as tall as five or six people, its body a deep crimson like blood jade, with mysterious patterns of light flowing across its surface, stands silently in the center of the cave!
[Beneath the dragon egg, concentric rings of intense, almost tangible, crimson light are spreading outwards. As you approach, the frequency of these waves increases noticeably, as if they are cheering and jumping for joy.]
["Was it you calling me?" You couldn't help but step forward, reaching out to touch the strange dragon egg that resonated with your bloodline.]
However, just inches from the eggshell, the fingertip was firmly blocked by an invisible barrier.
["Hmm?" You push forward with force, but the barrier doesn't budge.]
"Blocked?" Long Yu murmured, stepping forward to try and touch it, only to be blocked as well.
"That's impossible..." He frowned, carefully observing his surroundings, and after a moment, it dawned on him.
"Look at these stone statues around us, they're all top-tier demons."
[As you observe, you discover that several stone statues exuding a vast and fierce aura stand around the cave, vaguely recognizable as the true forms of powerful Demon Race.]
[Long Yu's gaze swept over the stone statues, her voice slightly deep: "It seems that these great demons did something that caused this thing to be sealed."]
"What should I do?" The hope that had just risen in your heart sank again. You thought finding the source would solve the problem, but it seemed so close yet so out of reach.
[Just then, a clear and melodious female voice, yet carrying supreme authority, suddenly rang out behind you:]
"As expected, destiny brought you and the Sacred Relic together."
[You turn around abruptly and see a woman in a magnificent long dress, with an exquisitely graceful figure and breathtaking beauty, slowly walking towards you from the direction you came from, accompanied by several powerful Dragon Clan guards.]
[Her eyes immediately fell on you, her gaze filled with excitement and a barely perceptible sense of relief, and she nodded slightly.]
[But when her gaze shifted to Long Yu beside you, a chilling Killing Intent suddenly flashed in her beautiful eyes!]
Without any warning, she waved her slender hand, and a Dragon Form burst of energy shot out, striking Long Yu precisely in the chest!
[Bang!]
Caught off guard, Long Yu let out a muffled groan and flew backward like a kite with a broken string, crashing heavily into a large demon statue in the distance, cracking the statue and sending fragments of stone raining down.
["What are you doing!" you exclaimed in shock, rushing to Long Yu's side, spreading your arms to block the woman, glaring angrily.]
The woman didn't attack again, but coldly looked at Long Yu, whom you were protecting behind you, and explained, "The aura on him is that of a mixed-race person."
[A hybrid of the Dragon Clan and other races? No wonder Eldest Brother Long Yu is reluctant to talk about his background.]
[You thought it in your heart, but didn't hesitate to say it aloud.]
"So what if I'm mixed race?!" you retorted stubbornly.
[The woman reluctantly withdrew her hand, took a deep breath, and explained, "Being mixed-race is not inherently wrong."]
[However, he is a hybrid of the Demon Race and our True Dragon Clan.]
[And the Demon Race, regardless of its lineage, are the mortal enemies of my True Dragon Clan!]
"Eldest Brother Long Yu is a good person!" you exclaimed excitedly, recounting how Long Yu had cared for you, guided you, and walked alongside you throughout your journey.
The woman listened patiently, her expression remaining unchanged regarding the details of the care provided.
[But when she heard that "Eldest Brother Long Yu could also feel the strange call," her expression clearly changed, and her gaze sharpened as she swept it over Long Yu, who was struggling to his feet.]
Finally, after weighing her options, she toned down some of her hostility, turned to you, knelt on one knee, and spoke in a solemn voice:
"I pledge my allegiance to you, Son of Destiny. My name is— Long Yue."
"I am the Sacred Heir Fate Warden of the True Dragon Tribe, in charge of the clan's core inheritance and Fate Warden affairs."
"From this day forward, I belong to you."
She slowly raised her eyes, her glassy eyes looking over.
"I will be the sword in your hand, the shield before you, and your only 'Fate Warden.'"
"Whether it's the main hall by day or the bedroom by night... I will oversee and fulfill all the rituals and services you require."
"Our offspring will be the hope of our people."
[The moment the words "serve" and "offspring" were uttered, you could clearly see the Dragon Clan servants standing like statues beside you, their eyes piercing straight at you.]
[Within it surged intense emotions that were almost impossible to conceal—a deep-sea envy and a naked jealousy that could scorch.]
You could almost read the unspoken message in that gaze: Why me?
[This jealousy is so intense that it secretly brings you a sense of satisfaction.]
[It makes sense—this is the first time in your life you've seen such a beautiful woman, with her jet-black hair, crystal-clear dragon horns, and features so exquisite they seem almost ethereal. When she lowers her eyes, she's as aloof as Deity; when she looks at you, her focus makes it seem as if you are the sole meaning of her existence.]
The word "peerless beauty" seems so inadequate when applied to her.
[However, precisely because her beauty was so breathtaking, this promise, made so easily even to the point of including future children, cast a deep shadow of doubt in your heart.]
["Loyalty? The Son of Destiny?" You support Long Yu, whose mouth is bleeding, and a sense of unease begins to creep into your heart.]
[Long Yue stood up, her gaze fixed on the sealed crimson dragon egg, and explained, "This is the supreme Sacred Relic of my True Dragon Clan — the Ancestral Dragon Egg. It possesses the miraculous power to cleanse bloodlines and restore one's original nature."]
"For ordinary Dragon Clan like us, this Sacred Relic can only enhance our strength and purify our bloodline. But for you, it's entirely different."
"The bloodline within you is pure and ancient; you are the Destined One, as prophesied by our people."
"Once you enter the Sacred Relic and undergo its baptism, you will be able to fully awaken the deepest hidden Ancestral Dragon Blood, and recreate the Ancestral Dragon Might. At that time... you will become the Emperor of Ten Thousand Dragons, the sovereign of the Dragon Clan."
[A beauty by the tatami mat, the Emperor of Ten Thousand Dragons.]
These words carry a chilling weight and allure, causing a slight tremor in your heart.
[But then, the kind smile of the Azure Cloud Sect master, the playful antics of the senior brothers and sisters, the adorable look of the junior sister eagerly awaiting your return to cook... a series of heartwarming images flooded my mind.]
You shook your head, your eyes regaining their resolve. "I don't want to be some kind of Emperor of Ten Thousand Dragons."
