The Limitless Sect Plans to Create a Dragon
Unlike the tension in Sang Ying's courtyard, at this moment, the residence of Sect Master Wu was filled with the triumphant and satisfied laughter of powerful figures.
The thought that they would be able to obtain a share of the treasures on the black dragon in a few days, and use them to improve their cultivation and extend their lifespan filled the powerful beings with excitement. They couldn't wait to go to the dungeon and eliminate the black dragon!
As the host of this small banquet, Sect Master Wu had heard far too many compliments, but even now, he was still not tired of them.
"Today's events are truly thanks to Sect Master Wu. If it weren't for Sect Master Wu's strategic planning, we probably wouldn't dare to lay a hand on that evil dragon right now," one of the sect leaders said, offering his flattery.
An elder sitting next to him chimed in, not to be outdone. "Indeed, indeed! Who would have thought that Sect Master Wu could come up with such a clever plan, leaving that evil dragon with no chance of turning the tables?"
As everyone talked, they burst into laughter again, with Sect Master Wu, sitting at the head of the table, laughing the most heartily.
He suffered a lot of losses these days because of Sang Ying and Sword Frost Cliff also lost a considerable amount of Spirit Stone as a Limitless Sect.
Afterwards, in order to prevent his disciples from harboring resentment towards him as their sect leader, he even paid out of his own pocket to make up for the shortfall. Even Sect Master Wu felt a pang of heartache at the loss of so many Spirit Stones from his Storage Bag.
Fortunately, he was able to quickly recover his losses from the black dragon. He was still the biggest winner this time!
The atmosphere at the small banquet was just right when a cultivator sitting at the end couldn't help but ask, "I wonder who that person Sect Master Wu sent to impersonate Jiang Zhuoxue the other day? He really does look a bit like a real dragon to me?"
Upon hearing this, Sect Master Wu raised an eyebrow slightly. He knew these people would ask, "Since everyone is so curious about him, why don't we let him come out and meet everyone?"
Since Sect Master Wu has spoken, naturally no one will refuse.
He shouted "Xuan Lin" towards the outside, and a moment later, the tightly closed door creaked open.
A tall, black figure gradually entered everyone's line of sight, and the eerie black markings on the side of the man's face also came into view.
"These are the treasures of our sect now," Sect Master Wu introduced to the others. "Come, Xuan Lin, greet the seniors."
He beckoned to the young man as if calling a dog, but the tall, handsome young man's face remained icy as he bowed deeply to the group before him.
Everyone was taken aback and quickly asked, "Is this the person who played Jiang Zhuoxue earlier? We really couldn't tell. May we ask what cultivation level this young fellow is now?"
They were still somewhat curious about this person named Xuan Lin.
Upon hearing this, Sect Master Wu burst into laughter. "His cultivation level is different from that of our Human Race; he is a dragon!"
He summoned Xuan Lin to his side, and seeing the obedient appearance of the other, Sect Master Wu was filled with pride.
This event was also a fortuitous opportunity of the Limitless Sect. Years ago, their sect leader obtained a black dragon's scale and benefited greatly from it. He originally intended to continue capturing Dragon Race to profit for himself, but unexpectedly, Dragon Race were scarce, and few were willing to come down from the Upper Realm to suffer.
Frustrated by the lack of more Dragon Race, the sect leader conceived the idea of creating a true dragon himself.
Xuan Lin was the one he brought back from the Hidden Nether Realm. At that time, Xuan Lin was just a small snake that had just hatched. It was only because it carried some dragon aura and had a few drops of true dragon blood from who-knows-where that the sect leader brought it back and kept it in the house for a long time.
At first, the little snake was unruly and refused to obey. The former sect leader had no choice but to teach it a lesson. It was unknown how long the little snake was disciplined, being hit with a stick and then given a sweet treat, before it finally became somewhat obedient.
Unfortunately, the little snake did not become a dragon before the sect leader died. After that person, the successor sect leader took on this heavy responsibility, and the little snake gradually grew up under his guidance.
Ten thousand years later, in the hands of Sect Master Wu, the little snake finally escaped the tribulation of lightning and transformed into a dragon!
Although it was not as powerful as a true dragon, and ultimately did not meet the sect master's expectations, in Sect Master Wu's eyes, an obedient dragon was equally valuable.
Seeing Sect Master Wu's arrogance, the others praised him a few more times.
However, the conversation only briefly touched on Xuan Lin before quickly shifting back to Jiang Zhuoxue.
Halfway through the banquet, someone couldn't wait to ask, "Now that the evil dragon's crimes have been determined, and we'll execute it in a few days, how should we divide its remains?"
The question had stunned everyone present. The sect leaders paused, their hands holding wine glasses still, and they exchanged glances discreetly.
Since it concerned their own interests, they naturally cared about it. However, given that Sect Master Wu had contributed the most, they dared not speak up casually for fear of offending someone.
Now that someone has taken the initiative to speak up, they won't let this good opportunity pass them by.
Among the sect leaders, there was one who had been privately sought out by Sect Master Ji of Sword Frost Cliff. Sect Master Ji had even given him some pointers, saying that the most important thing about the black dragon was its scales and the Dragon Pearl inside its belly.
If we could obtain these two items, they would be the foundation for our own and our sect's survival!
The man kept these words firmly in mind, but what he didn't know was that Sect Master Ji had said these words to more than just him.
Everyone looked at Sect Master Wu at the head of the table, waiting for him to give a definite answer.
Sect Master Wu, well aware of their ambitions, didn't mince words and stated bluntly, "This matter should naturally be settled, but everyone knows that the Black Dragon was captured thanks to our Limitless Sect, and we also Limitless Sect the most to convicting him. Therefore, our Limitless Sect should receive the lion's share of the treasures on the Black Dragon."
Although many people Qi Ingestion with his words, they couldn't refute them.
"We should keep half of the Black Dragon's blood, and only take the two largest Black Dragon teeth. We'll only take one-third of the rest of the dragon meat, and most importantly, the Dragon Pearl, shouldn't we keep it too?" As soon as Sect Master Wu spoke, many people present showed signs of heartache.
One of the two most important items had already been taken by Sect Master Wu, so the rest of the group had no choice but to set their sights on the remaining dragon scales.
However, the next second, Sect Master Wu spoke up again, "Oh, I forgot, our sect's Black Scale Battle Armor was taken by that evil dragon. Coincidentally, the dragon scales weren't of much use anyway, so let's leave them to our Limitless Sect as compensation."
It's said to be left to the Limitless Sect, but anyone with eyes can see that it's actually meant for Wu Renyao himself!
The Dragon Pearl is gone, and the Dragon Scales are nowhere to be found. The Limitless Sect alone has taken most of the good stuff, leaving only the less desirable items for these dozen or so to divide. What will they possibly get in the end?!
The group of people smiled kindly on the surface and praised Sect Master Wu for his generosity, but in their hearts they harbored jealousy and hatred, like a volcano that could erupt at any time, and who knows what terrible consequences it would bring to Sect Master Wu after it erupted.
The atmosphere at the banquet remained lively, but Xuan Lin, standing next to Sect Master Wu, lowered his head slightly after scanning everyone's expressions, suppressing the look of anticipation in his eyes.
It seems that he won't need to personally take action to destroy the Limitless Sect.
The black snake bared its venomous fangs in the shadows.
