“Elder Ancestor Dragon,” even Wang Anye felt that things were going too smoothly and couldn’t help but ask, “This relic that lay buried within Long Ze must be considered as belonging to your family, right? Elder, why do you seem so unconcerned about it?”
“Since you were seeking the Blood Venerate’s relic, you must have already learned sothing about this person.” Elder Ancestor Dragon glanced at Wang Anye, his expression sowhat complex.
Wang Anye nodded slightly, picking his words carefully, “We know he was from the Divine Martial Dynasty Era, and we know of so of his deeds. We’ve heard that this person was one of the top ten fugitives of the Divine Martial Dynasty Era…”
He dared not say more, worried that the Blood Venerate might turn out to be so benefactor of the Azure Dragon bloodline. What if he misspoke?
“He was more than just a fugitive; he was a deranged madman,” Elder Ancestor Dragon lanted, “Speaking of which, this is a painful mory for our Azure Dragon Clan of the Divine Martial bloodline.”
“This matter dates back to the Divine Martial Dynasty Era. At that ti, our branch of the Divine Martial bloodline’s Elder Ancestor, a Peak Level Twelve Azure Dragon, was deceived by the Blood Venerate, captured by him, and since then confined in his lair as a subject of experints, living a life of unbearable indignity.”
With Elder Ancestor Dragon’s narration, everyone finally understood the reasons.
Long after the Blood Venerate disappeared, the sealed and sleeping Azure Dragon Elder Ancestor woke up once again. By that ti, the Blood Venerate’s lair was long abandoned.
Because it was unattended, much of the equipnt and seals within the lair were gradually damaged over ti due to earth’s crust changes, allowing the Azure Dragon Elder Ancestor to escape.
By then, the outside world had changed dramatically, and the Blood Venerate’s lair had been subrged under a vast Wild Marsh.
The Azure Dragon Elder Ancestor had nowhere to go and simply settled down in this Daze, claiming it as his own territory.
Later, during his travels, he discovered a young female Azure Dragon and captured her back to the ancient marshes of the Southern Wilderness to start their important mission of propagating their species.
Although the Azure Dragon Elder Ancestor was at Peak Level Twelve, due to the tornt he endured and continuous draining of his bloodline which hard his vitality, his constitution was far less robust than a normal Level Twelve Divine Martial Azure Dragon.
Further compounded by prolonged sealing and sleep, his body sustained irreversible damage, which led to his early demise, short of the lifespan typical for an Azure Dragon of Level Twelve.
Before his death, due to his fear and resentnt towards the Blood Venerate, he made his progeny swear never to step into the Blood Venerate’s relic.
And this ancestral decree of the Dragon Clan had been passed down through generations, with every Azure Dragon pledging to abide by it under the guidance of Elder Dragons after coming of age.
“So, Elder Ancestor Dragon, what you an is that you are both fearful of, and curious about, what’s inside the Blood Venerate’s relic,” Wang Anye suddenly realized, “Thus, you hope soone else could go in to check it out for you.”
“Correct.” Elder Ancestor Dragon chuckled, “The secrets within the Blood Venerate’s relic have tornted this old dragon for a lifeti. Since I find you quite agreeable, I naturally plan to go with the flow.”
“Is that so?” Chii Demon Master continued scrutinizing Old Yao; that really was quite a deal for Anye.
“Though you say that, Elder, I still feel sowhat uncomfortable about receiving such a favor without giving sothing back,” Wang Anye thought aloud after a pause, “Perhaps, Elder, you could suggest so conditions.”
The expression on Chii Demon Master’s face instantly stiffened.
What should one say about this child? The Elder Ancestor Dragon already agreed to let him in, couldn’t he simply accept it? Wouldn’t simple and hassle-free be better?
Who actively asks others to set conditions? Isn’t that like stretching out one’s neck for the slaughter?
Oh dear~ Anye, this child is all-round good but just too inexperienced with the harshness of the world.
“Very well~ Anye, you surely are a good boy, I have not misjudged you,” Elder Ancestor Dragon said cheerfully, “If you truly want to compensate, just send us so Spirit Cow at for our Divine Martial Azure Dragon Clan. It’s my fault as an old fogey for eating too much, leaving our clan rather poor. They haven’t had the chance to eat anything decent since they were young.”
“That’s a trivial matter,” Wang Anye waved broadly, “then send five hundred.”
“Pfft!”
Wang Anxin almost spat blood, hurriedly pulling Wang Anye aside, “Brother, each Level Five Snow Pattern Spirit Cow weighs 30,000 jin when slaughtered, selling for about four to five hundred thousand Qian Gold each. Five hundred heads would be equivalent to two to three billion Qian Gold!”
That’s almost on par with a decent Divine Spiritual Treasure.
Wang Anxin knew that his brother, unlike others, didn’t have a clear concept of money and also wasn’t quite familiar with the difficulty of breeding and market prices of Snow Pattern Spirit Cows. He worried Wang Anye might not understand the situation fully, thus his generosity.
“That’s too much, far too much; a hundred or two would suffice,” the Ao Family dragons, although very eager for those five hundred Snow Pattern Spirit Cows, were honestly startled by the value and quickly declined modestly, “If each dragon could have one, we would be very content.”
“It’s fine, although money is precious, relations are priceless,” Wang Anye calmly stated, “Since I said five hundred, then it will be five hundred. Anxin, follow up on this matter later. If our Wang family isn’t enough, you can use my Identity Token to borrow from the Imperial Household.”
