A Wild Guess from the Dragon Clan

The Old Dragon chuckled, recalling what Ling Xiao had told them in the Dragon Palace.

They say the future protagonist is a race called the Descendants of the Dragon.

Now it seems highly likely that it was this Human Race, who has the air of a chosen one.

But he couldn't understand why Human Race of dragons. Did Human Race have some connection to their Dragon Clan?

Upon hearing this, Ao Zhan laughed heartily and said, "Who knows? Ling Xiao might just be spouting nonsense."

"I think this Human Race is more like a descendant of the Qilin. Isn't that large seal the treasure of that stubborn old man, the Beginning Qilin?"

The Qilin Seal may be unfamiliar to other living beings, but it is all too familiar to Ao Zhan, the current patriarch of the Dragon Clan.

He had dealt with the Beginning Qilin more than once. Although he was just there to make up the numbers with the Ancestral Dragon, his familiarity with the Qilin was far beyond that of ordinary creatures.

"That makes sense, Xiao Zhan, your observation skills have become even more acute," Old Dragon said with a smile, his face full of satisfaction.

Ao Zhan's lips twitched, utterly speechless. Such a large Qilin Seal —anyone with eyes could see it. Was this a compliment or an insult?

"However, I believe that Fellow Daoist Ling Xiao would never speak recklessly, and there must be a reason behind his words. If we did not understand them, that is our own problem. Let's think about it carefully again and see if there is any other meaning behind them?"

Old Dragon wore a kind smile. He knew many secrets: Ling Xiao had already become a saint and had appeared during the sermons of the saints, achieving remarkable feats.

Such a powerful being wouldn't speak empty words; everything he says must have meaning.

Perhaps Ling Xiao had already foreseen the future, but didn't say it explicitly, only expressing it cryptically.

"Is it really that mysterious?" Ao Zhan, looking surprised.

"This matter concerns the future of our Dragon Clan, so we cannot be careless. Sometimes opportunities will just flash by, and it depends on whether we can seize them," the Old Dragon said solemnly. He was always extremely careful about the future of the Dragon Clan, but he would never let an opportunity slip by.

Just like when they first faced Ling Xiao, two paths lay before them: one was to mobilize the entire clan to defeat the three Ling Xiao brothers and seize the supreme treasure Void Mirror.

Secondly, give up the precious treasure and forge a good relationship with Ling Xiao.

Based on his intuition and shrewd experience, Old Dragon chose the latter and befriended Ling Xiao.

In retrospect, his choice was incredibly wise. If he had tried to seize the treasure that day and made Ling Xiao his mortal enemy, the consequences would have been unimaginable.

Even a peak-level Dragon Clan, or the Ancestral Dragon himself, would be utterly defeated by a Sage, with no chance of turning the tide.

It's really not worth it for an Innate Supreme Treasure.

Now, the Old Dragon believes that his Dragon Clan still has some connection with Ling Xiao.

He even had some influence with Ling Xiao.

Recalling what Ling Xiao had said in the Dragon Palace, the Old Dragon felt that it wasn't just idle talk, but perhaps a hint, giving their Dragon Clan a chance.

Upon hearing this, Ao Zhan straightened his expression, entered serious mode, and began to ponder.

He rarely acted like this, after all these years he had just been eating and drinking, without any passion or excitement. But right now, Ao Zhan seemed to have sensed an opportunity, a feeling.

Their chance for the revival of the Dragon Clan may truly be coming.

"Descendants of the dragon..." Ao Zhan pondered the sentence, his thoughts racing as he tried to interpret it.

A moment later, his eyes lit up, as if he knew something, and he tentatively said...

"Does the term 'Descendants of the Dragon' mean that the Dragon Clan's absolute power over heaven and earth will eventually be passed on to the Human Race?"

"Dragon Clan and Human Race share a common Fate and are interdependent."

"So, if my Dragon Clan wants to revive, it needs to connect with the Human Race?"

As Ao Zhan, his words became increasingly plausible, and he eventually became excited, feeling as if he had glimpsed the truth, a sense of accomplishment he could not express.

Upon hearing this, Old Dragon was immediately shocked, his eyes widening as he stared intently at Ao Zhan.

"Xiao Zhan, what you said may seem far-fetched, but it's not without reason."

He rarely praised Ao Zhan, and it was a genuine compliment, almost the first time in his life.

Even something he hadn't expected, Ao Zhan had somehow managed to decipher.

After the Dragon-Han Catastrophe, and after a long period of time, the Wu and Demon and Yao races rose to prominence. However, it seems that these two races are somewhat abnormal, and it is still uncertain whether they can become the future protagonists of destiny.

On the contrary, the Human Race made a name for itself right from the start, showing the makings of a protagonist, and it is very likely that the future world will belong to the Human Race.

The journey from the Dragon Clan through the Wu and Demon and demon races, and finally to the Human Race, makes perfect sense when you think about it this way.

The Phoenix Clan and Qilin Clan were almost completely wiped out, while the Dragon Clan was relatively well preserved. This suggests that the Dragon Clan still has a chance to revive.

Based on Ao Zhan's analysis, the answer has become clear.

"Elder, do you think so too?" Ao Zhan asked with great surprise, not expecting that his rare suggestion would be approved by the shrewd elder.

That was so difficult!

The Old Dragon nodded slightly and said earnestly, "Not bad, you're becoming more and more of a proper Dragon Clan leader."

"The next decision concerns the rise and fall of the Dragon Clan, so it is up to you, the clan leader, to decide!"

Upon hearing this, Ao Zhan immediately lost his composure.

What's going on?

He was a little unaccustomed to being suddenly put in power.

I've always been obedient to him, so I'm really flattered to be allowed to make the decision myself today.

Ao Zhan even started to panic.

They're testing me!

Is this a test for me?

"Elder, you..." After struggling with his question, Ao Zhan hesitated again.

"Xiao Zhan, be bold and make your own decisions. As the patriarch of the Dragon Clan, you can't be without any opinions of your own," the Old Dragon encouraged.

Upon hearing these provocative words, Ao Zhan immediately stood up in surprise.

"Let's do it!"

"Believe in the descendants of the dragon!"

The Sun Star.

Ling Xiao gazed thoughtfully at Mount Shouyang. Not long ago, he had detected a subtle fluctuation, the kind that even Sage couldn't detect.

He possesses the Eye of Divine Punishment, so he can naturally detect this extraordinary fluctuation.

The only one capable of achieving this is naturally the one from the Purple Heaven Palace.

"Hongjun couldn't resist making a move after all..."

Ling Xiao smiled faintly. As the saying goes, "If the general trend doesn't change, Hongjun won't intervene." Now, Hongjun couldn't help but make his move.

This means the situation has already affected him.

If Hongjun intervenes, it can also be interpreted as his skill being compromised, which is a crucial point.

Just like a monarch personally leading a battle, while it may seem impressive, isn't it also a form of helplessness?

Ling Xiao smiled with satisfaction. The fact that Hongjun had personally intervened in the scheme meant that the two of them were now on equal footing.

There has been significant progress compared to before.

Ling Xiao's gaze shifted, his pupils changing as he searched the Human Race land.

"It was him..."
