The purplish-gold dragon leaped off Chen Mingyue's shoulder, muttering indignantly, "You're overthinking it."

"The Starry Sky Sect is such a large force; there are countless cultivators with higher cultivation levels than you. Even if the Starry Sky Ancestor wanted to possess someone, he would prioritize taking over a powerful junior."

"Someone like you is far inferior to the cultivators of the Starry Sky Sect. Even if that old guy were to possess someone, you probably wouldn't even rank among them. Why are you so conflicted? Aren't you just making yourself uncomfortable?"

"Furthermore, to be honest, only by possessing the body of a powerful junior member of the Starry Sky Sect can one perfectly take over everything in the sect. If one possesses a weaker disciple, one might need to start cultivating all over again."

"That old guy even invented something like 'Demon God's Descent,' do you think he's stupid? If there's a shortcut, he'll definitely think of taking it. Otherwise, he would never have created a technique like 'Demon God's Descent.'"

The purplish-gold dragon flicked its tail as it spoke.

Clearly, he believed that what he said made perfect sense.

The Starry Sky Sect is the most powerful and famous sect in the entire Starry Sky Immortal Realm. Its disciples are truly hidden talents, including countless prodigies and heroes.

Moreover, those sect disciples lived within the Starry Sky Sect, and compared to a traitor's son like Chen Mingyue, they were undoubtedly more familiar with the entire sect.

Therefore, no matter how you calculate it, Chen Mingyue will not become the vessel for the Star Ancestor to possess.

Or rather, a cultivator of Chen Mingyue's caliber is simply not worthy of becoming a vessel for the Star Ancestor.

Although "Demon God Descends" can improve a cultivator's cultivation level and enhance their talent, this enhancement obviously cannot be unlimited.

As the saying goes, good steel should be used on the blade. No matter how desperate the Star Ancestor was, he would still go to great lengths to possess Chen Mingyue's body.

Chen Mingyue was so angry that his teeth itched. Although he belatedly realized that what the little purple-gold beast said wasn't entirely unreasonable, its tone really annoyed him.

What does this mean?!

So, Chen Mingyue isn't even qualified to be a vessel for the Star Ancestor?

"You're right, get down here right now." Chen Mingyue said irritably to the purple-gold dragon in mid-air.

On the surface, Chen Mingyue appeared to approve of him, but in reality, she was secretly gathering her strength, planning to teach him a lesson as soon as the purple-gold dragon came down.

Don't be fooled by the fact that this purplish-gold dragon is still in its juvenile stage; it is actually far stronger than human cultivators of the same age.

If the purple-gold dragon were to flee with all its might, even Chen Mingyue wouldn't be able to do anything to it.

"Hehe, I'm not going down!" The purplish-gold dragon seemed to have seen through Chen Mingyue's scheme, floating in mid-air and swaying its tail, refusing to go down.

"I admit you have a point," Chen Mingyue continued.

"Of course!" The purplish-gold dragon proudly raised its chin and continued, "You don't need to worry about anything right now. Just focus on cultivating 'Demon God's Descent'! Getting stronger is the most important thing!"

"You're right, I've figured it out." Chen Mingyue nodded, feigning agreement.

"Ahem. I admit what I said just now was a bit harsh, but it was all the truth!" The purple-gold dragon couldn't help but tremble as it looked at Chen Mingyue's face, which was as black as the bottom of a pot.

Although he was a dignified dragon and shouldn't be afraid of this human brat, he still planned to adventure with Chen Mingyue, and angering Chen Mingyue wouldn't be a good thing.

Seeing that she couldn't get this little brat down, Chen Mingyue's face darkened completely, and she said, "What else do you want to say?"

That's like asking the little purple-gold dragon if it had any last words.

However, this purple-gold dragon was still too shallow in its cultivation. As a demon beast, it was indeed powerful, but it could never understand the intricacies of human affairs.

"Don't worry, I can guess it. Your Starry Sky Sect's leader, elders, and all those old guys probably know about this."

"The matter of 'Demon God's Descent' is considered a secret outside the palace, but among those in power, it's hardly a secret at all. They might even be secretly preparing a suitable resurrection vessel for your ancestor."

"That resurrection vessel has been pampered since childhood, eating the finest food and drinking the most luxurious drinks. It's far superior to a weakling like you."

"Even if you ascend to immortality in the future and go to your ancestor's spirit to ask her to be resurrected in your body, your Star Ancestor might not agree. After all, you're just a wildling; how can you compare to a proper disciple of the Star Sect?"

Chen Mingyue: "..."

Chen Mingyue's lips twitched violently. Although she had to admit that what this little beast said made perfect sense, it was still unpleasant to hear.

Seeing that Chen Mingyue remained silent for a long time, the purple-gold dragon assumed that the weakling had finally put down and swooped down, landing back on Chen Mingyue's shoulder.

"Hmph, you've finally come down." Chen Mingyue placed her hand on the tail of the purple-gold dragon.

The purple-gold dragon. "!!!"

I was careless; I didn't dodge!

This kid has no sportsmanship!

crackling sounds...

Chen Mingyue grabbed the purple-gold dragon by the tail and gave it a good beating. Fortunately, the monsters were tough and resilient, and even with Chen Mingyue's full strength, she couldn't hurt the purple-gold dragon too much.

The purple-gold dragon struggled at first, but soon realized that Chen Mingyue's fists only looked fierce and didn't actually hurt at all, so it lay down and let Chen Mingyue go berserk.

Chen Mingyue hit the purple-gold dragon for a while, only to feel pain in her hand. She looked up at the purple-gold dragon, which looked drowsy and obviously was fine.

Seeing the purple-gold dragon in this state, Chen Mingyue was even more furious, but unfortunately, he had no other choice at the moment.

Moreover, after such a long period of analysis, Chen Mingyue had long since let it go.

The little purple-gold dragon was right. His talent was nothing compared to the disciples of the Starry Sky Sect. Even if the Starry Sky Ancestor were to try to possess someone, it wouldn't be his turn.

Seeing Chen Mingyue gradually lower his fist, the purple-gold dragon yawned and nestled on his shoulder. "Good thing!"
