“And this…”

“Is the achievement of my Dragon Clan!”

“The struggle between the Western Buddhas and the Celestial Gods, how could we possibly dominate it? To be able to cling to one side and survive is already quite good!”

“Now that the Fate of the Heavenly Dao is about to restart, in the future you…”

The Dragon Lord held back his anger, speaking rapidly.

At first, he spoke extremely quickly, as if without thinking.

...

Until the end.

The tone and voice of the Dragon Lord weakened, clearly realizing there was no need to explain so much to Cheng Guang.

With the Buddha dead, that was it.

The only option now was to look for other methods to secure a divine position for himself and the Dragon Clan.

Speaking of which.

For the Dragon Lord, the death of that Buddha wasn’t a complete disaster.

Its prior entry into the Ten Thousand Mile Dragon Cave was because the other four dragons were nearly unable to suppress that Buddha any longer.

Even its own venture into the Ten Thousand Mile Dragon Cave had been with the mindset that it might not come out alive.

Even though he felt that his own chances were slim, the Dragon Lord still had no choice but to do so.

Because he had to exert all his strength to suppress that Buddha.

If he hadn’t given it his all and allowed the escape of that Buddha, even if the Dragon Lord himself lived and was not badly wounded, he would still be found by the angry gods and be flayed and skinned.

In the Heavenly Court, there was one fearsome god who had once skinned a dragon alive.

The Dragon Lord had never experienced it personally, nor had it witnessed it, but it had heard of such things countless times from its parents.

Now that Cheng Guang had killed that Buddha, at least the Dragon Lord had managed to survive for the time being.

In the end, if the Celestial Gods questioned and pursued the matter, it wouldn’t be the Dragon Clan’s fault, they could all be thrown onto Cheng Guang who was of an unknown status within the Human Race.

Thinking this, the Dragon Lord felt a bright future ahead.

It even gave itself a figurative thumbs-up in that moment.

Feeling it was truly clever.

Meanwhile, Cheng Guang wasn’t paying attention to the petty thoughts of the Dragon Lord. Looking around, he already felt he couldn’t stay there any longer.

The system quest was completed.

Next, he needed to find a place to claim the system quest rewards.

With these thoughts in mind, Cheng Guang started walking towards the outside.

As he stepped towards the entrance of the Ten Thousand Mile Dragon Cave, Cheng Guang turned his head slightly, his gaze landing on the Dragon Lord.

“You…”

The Dragon Lord, having seen Cheng Guang preparing to leave and not planning any action against it, felt instantly at ease.

Filled with relief.

But then.

The Dragon Lord watched as Cheng Guang, a being not to be trifled with, suddenly stopped and turned his gaze upon it as he was about to leave.

The Dragon Lord nearly wet itself in fright.

“What, what do you want to do?”

The Dragon Lord’s legs trembled slightly, the full length of the dragon still hiding in the corner, a picture of “I can’t offend, but I sure can hide.”

Cheng Guang looked at the Dragon Lord, and seeing such a cowardly state, he had originally wanted to recruit the Dragon Lord, to have it follow him in whatever challenges lay ahead, whether against the Western Buddhas or the Celestial Gods.

Cheng Guang didn’t even want to depend on them.

He wanted to trample all those who hid in the shadows and secretly controlled the fate of the world underfoot.

Moreover.

The pressure Cheng Guang felt from the Great Tang Emperor at the moment was still too great.

Even though the Great Tang Emperor had not shown any malice towards him, but instead, had been completely benevolent.

But this…

Was only because the Great Tang Emperor hadn’t discovered that Great Tang Chang’an City was under his control.

The moment the Great Tang Emperor found out that he controlled Great Tang Chang’an City, Cheng Guang would instantly become a target.

The Great Tang Emperor wouldn’t let him get away with it.

Unless Cheng Guang voluntarily handed over Great Tang Chang’an City, otherwise, the Great Tang Emperor would never let him go.

And the idea of voluntarily handing over Great Tang Chang’an City to the Great Tang Emperor.

Was impossible.

Leaving aside what role Great Tang Chang’an City may play, how could Cheng Guang easily relinquish what he had acquired?

Even if Cheng Guang let go and handed over Great Tang Chang’an City to the Great Tang Emperor, knowing that he could control it, the Great Tang Emperor would never feel at ease or be calm about him.

An Emperor’s mind is to leave no trouble for the future.

Even if Cheng Guang himself wanted to do something, once targeted by the Great Tang Emperor, he wouldn’t have many ways to survive.

Cheng Guang thought of this, his gaze once again landing on the corner, as if still in doubt about the Dragon Lord, who was contemplating life.

“Do you want to follow me? Perhaps it isn’t inferior to the Various Gods and godhood you speak of in the future,” Cheng Guang said.

No sooner had Cheng Guang spoken than the Dragon Lord was utterly dumbfounded.

It wasn’t just the Dragon Lord who was dumbfounded.

Gu Wushuang and Black Cub at his side were also struck with stupefaction.

Although the two of them did not know what the Various Gods and godhood mentioned by the Dragon Lord were.

But.

It was evident from that Buddha Head Statue just now.

Those Various Gods were entities capable of contending with the powers behind the Buddha Head Statue.

And no matter how strong Cheng Guang was, he wasn’t necessarily a match for those beings who had lived for untold ages.

Gu Wushuang’s autumn-water-like eyes, after hearing such words from Cheng Guang, couldn’t help but stare tightly at him, utterly baffled as to why Cheng Guang would make such a statement.

To Gu Wushuang, the status of Cheng Guang, the Duke’s Heir, had greatly risen in her heart at this moment.

If it hadn’t been for such a significant elevation of his status, Gu Wushuang, upon hearing the Town-Nation Duke’s Heir say such things, would only think that Cheng Guang had gone mad.

But now.

Gu Wushuang couldn’t help but ponder the feasibility of what Cheng Guang had said.

Regardless of how powerful the Various Gods mentioned by the Dragon Lord were, just looking into the eyes of Cheng Guang, the Town-Nation Duke’s Heir at this moment, there was little fear or trepidation.

What was there.

Was nothing but full confidence.

Just by looking at Cheng Guang with such demeanor, Gu Wushuang, who had wanted to say something, suddenly fell silent, closing her mouth without speaking.

Black Cub at her side did the same.

His gaze unwittingly turned towards Cheng Guang, looking perplexed.

The Dragon Lord, on the other hand, wore an expression of disbelief, his eyes seeming to say, “Are you even listening to yourself?”

For a moment.

The Dragon Lord was completely dazed.

Once the Dragon Lord snapped back to reality, he swallowed dryly a few times and chuckled awkwardly as he shook his head.

“No…”

“There’s no need, your excellency. The thought is nice, but I am weak and alone, so I’d rather not follow,” the Dragon Lord said cautiously.

Fearing that his refusal might anger Cheng Guang.

As the Dragon Lord spoke, he watched Cheng Guang’s expressions closely.

If Cheng Guang were to get angry, the Dragon Lord would be forthright and bow his head decisively.

Not giving Cheng Guang any chance to become irritated.

That’s how the Dragon Lord liked to handle things.

It didn’t want to make Cheng Guang angry, so it wouldn’t.

However.

Just as the Dragon Lord thought that Cheng Guang, an enigmatic figure, was likely to get angry, he didn’t anticipate that Cheng Guang would merely glance at him and then casually walk into the corridor, leaving the Ten Thousand Mile Dragon Cave.

After Cheng Guang had left.

Gu Wushuang and Black Cub also followed closely behind Cheng Guang, leaving as well.

The Dragon Lord looked at the departing figures of Cheng Guang, Gu Wushuang, and Black Cub, the corners of his mouth twitching slightly.

It truly hadn’t expected that Cheng Guang, this unknown existence, would leave so swiftly.

At the same time.

The Dragon Lord felt a vague sense of loss in its heart.

It didn’t know whether its refusal to Cheng Guang was for the better or worse.

A foreboding feeling emerged unbidden in its heart.

It might have missed the greatest opportunity in its life and could come to deeply regret it later.

The Dragon Lord scratched its head, a bit puzzled as to why such a thought had suddenly appeared in its mind.

To contend with the Various Gods and Western Buddhas, aside from some ancient Earth Immortals from the past, there probably wasn’t anyone else…

Sighing, the Dragon Lord’s body completely slumped over.

Staring blankly at the other four dragon-shaped statues within the Ten Thousand Mile Dragon Cave.

Lost in thought, it was uncertain what it was pondering.
