Gods: Start with Goblins

. Jiaolong heard this, and a hint of hesitation flashed in his eyes. He knew very well that what he said might involve some sensitive topics, and might even cause conflicts between the demons and other creatures in the ancient barrier. But looking at the city lord's firm eyes and the man's expectant eyes, he finally nodded and decided to tell them everything he knew.

Thus, a conversation about the ancient enchantment and the escaped living beings quietly unfolded in the corner of the Demon Clan's palace. And this conversation will also become an important turning point in the future destiny of the Demon Clan.

In the dark and solemn palace of the demon clan, the conversation between the city lord, the man and the dragon continued. The dragon's words were full of awe and expectation for the adult who escaped from the ancient barrier. He said slowly: "It's only the demigod level, but it's suppressed. It takes a while to recuperate before it can sprint to the god level! But after this adult sprints to the god level, our future is just around the corner!"

When Jiaolong said this, his eyes sparkled with excitement, as if he had seen the demon clan moving towards a glorious future under the leadership of that adult. He waved his huge tail ecstatically, splashing up pieces of dust, and the whole cave seemed to tremble with his joy.

"That's great!" The city lord couldn't help but smile. He knew very well what the appearance of a god-level strongman meant to the demons. He looked at Jiaolong, his tone full of gratitude, "Thanks to you for telling us this important information, otherwise we don't know when we will know the existence of this master."

The dragon lowered his head humbly, saying that this was just what he should do. Then, he changed the subject and mentioned what happened to his master: "After our master escaped from the barrier, he was in a terrible state. He was attacked by humans and is now seriously injured and is recuperating in seclusion."

At this point, Jiaolong paused deliberately, as if recalling that thrilling experience. His eyes dimmed, and his voice became much deeper: "Those human cultivators, relying on their numbers and powerful magic weapons, pursued our master relentlessly. If I hadn't risked my life to protect him, I'm afraid..."

Jiaolong didn't say anything more, but the city lord and the man could sense the sadness and helplessness in his words. They were silent for a moment, and then the city lord spoke to comfort him: "Brother Jiaolong, don't be too sad. Since your master has escaped and is still recuperating, it means that he still has hope of recovering his strength. Moreover, with our demon clan here, we will definitely not let your master suffer any harm again."

Hearing this, Jiaolong's eyes flashed with gratitude. He knew that he was alone now and had no relatives in the demon clan, but the words of the city lord made him feel a little warm and reliable. He nodded and said firmly: "Thank you for your concern, Lord City Lord. I believe that my master will recover his strength as soon as possible. When the time comes, we will join forces to fight against the human race and let them know how powerful our demon clan is!"

The city lord and the man smiled at each other. They were both moved by Jiaolong's determination and courage. In this conversation about the ancient barrier, the god-level strongmen, and the future of the demons, they seemed to have seen the dawn of the rise of the demons. And the adult who escaped from the barrier would undoubtedly become the key to their glory.

In the dark and deep palace of the demons, the voice of the dragon echoed in the empty cave, carrying with it endless anger and unwillingness: "Those humans are so ambitious, they don't take our family seriously and bully our adults in every way! Our adults had no choice but to drift here, fortunately they received your treatment!" As the dragon spoke, tears flashed in his eyes, and his huge body trembled slightly, as if telling a past that was too painful to recall.

The city lord and the man listened quietly, their hearts filled with sympathy and anger towards the Jiaolong family. The city lord said in a deep voice: "Those humans are really too much! However, since you have come to the demon clan, you are our friends. We will definitely do our best to help your master recover his strength so that you can stand up again and fight against those hateful humans!"

Hearing this, Jiaolong's eyes flashed with gratitude, but then he revealed a worried look: "In fact, we came to the Demon Clan and wanted to go to the Spirit World. It is said that there is a Bodhi tree in the Spirit World, and there is endless vitality under the Bodhi tree. If we can get a chance under the Bodhi tree, maybe our strength can be restored to what it was before."

The city lord and the man were both stunned when they heard this. They didn't expect the Jiaolong family to have such a plan, but then they understood. After all, for any living being, strength is the most important. And the Bodhi tree, as a divine object in the spiritual world, is undoubtedly a great opportunity for them to restore their strength.

The city lord pondered for a moment, then slowly said: "It seems that your master's strength is extraordinary. He was just bullied by the human race, but he has fallen to this point. I think if you want to cooperate, you have to ask our master for permission. After all, this matter involves the future of our demon race, and we can't make a decision easily."

As he spoke, the city lord stood up and motioned for the man and Jiaolong to follow him. They walked through the winding corridor and came to a secret room deep in the palace. The door of the secret room was closed, but the city lord knew that Lord Long was in seclusion in there.

The city lord knocked gently on the door, and Lord Long's deep voice came from inside: "What's the matter?"

The city lord replied respectfully, "Lord Long, we have brought a dragon that escaped from the ancient barrier. He has something important to discuss with you. Is it convenient for you to see him now?"

There was silence for a while, and then Lord Long's voice came: "Let him in."

Upon hearing this, the city lord opened the door and walked in with the man and the dragon. In the secret room, Lord Long was sitting quietly on a cushion with his eyes closed. He exuded a powerful aura that made people feel awed.

When Jiaolong saw Lord Long, a trace of awe and expectation flashed in his eyes. He knew that his future destiny might be in the hands of this Lord. So, he respectfully said: "Lord Long, I am Jiaolong who escaped from the ancient barrier. My Lord was bullied by the human race and ended up here. We heard that there is a Bodhi tree in the spirit world, and we want to go there to find opportunities and restore our strength. I wonder if you are willing to cooperate with us?"

Hearing this, Lord Long slowly opened his eyes. His eyes were deep and wise, as if he could see through everything. He glanced at Jiaolong, then slowly said, "Cooperation? That depends on what you can bring to me. However, since you want to go to the spirit world, maybe we can go together. After all, I am also quite interested in the Bodhi tree."

Jiaolong was delighted when he heard this. He knew that he had taken the first step towards restoring his strength. Next, they would embark on a journey to the spirit world with Lord Long to find the legendary Bodhi tree and the endless vitality. Deep in the dark and mysterious palace of the demon clan, Luodan was concentrating with his eyes closed, focusing on his own cultivation. He was in a secret room made of obsidian. The walls were inlaid with magic crystals that flickered with faint light, adding a bit of strange brilliance to this dark space. Luodan's breathing was slow and deep, and every breath seemed to be in some subtle communication with the surrounding demonic energy.

Suddenly, he frowned slightly, and felt two unusual waves coming from the outside world. One wave was strange and powerful, with an indescribable pressure; while the other wave made him feel inexplicably familiar, as if he had encountered it at some distant moment.

Luo Dan slowly opened his eyes, with curiosity and doubt flashing in his dark eyes. He blinked, trying to capture more information about the familiar fluctuations, but unfortunately, the fluctuations seemed to only stay for a short while before disappearing without a trace.

At this moment, the city lord's voice came from outside the secret room, breaking the silence inside: "Sir, my men deliberately rushed back from outside, and he claimed that he had something important to see you. I wonder if it's convenient for you now?"

Luo Dan's heart moved when he heard this. He felt vaguely that this subordinate who suddenly asked for a meeting might have some connection with the familiar fluctuations just now. So, he nodded and responded simply: "Let them in, I also want to see who they are."

Following the city lord's order, the stone door of the secret room slowly opened, and a figure walked in. Following behind him was another demon member whom Luo Dan did not recognize. As soon as they entered the secret room, they immediately felt the unique atmosphere here. The whole room was filled with pure natural demonic energy, which was pure and rich, and different from any demonic energy they had encountered before.

The demon member whom Luo Dan did not know had a flash of surprise in his eyes. He obviously did not expect that there was such a place full of demonic energy in the depths of the demon palace. The subordinate who deliberately requested to meet him had a flashing look in his eyes, as if he was looking for something.

They walked up to Luo Dan and saluted respectfully. The subordinate said, "Sir, I am the city lord's subordinate, my name is XXX. I came here specially because I found some important information that may be related to you, sir."

Luo Dan raised his eyebrows slightly, indicating that he should continue. XXX took a deep breath and began to tell everything he had experienced, including the familiar and powerful fluctuations he felt in the outside world, and how he suspected that this fluctuation was related to Lord Luo Dan.

As XXX continued to talk, Luo Dan's brows furrowed more and more. The doubts and curiosity in his heart grew like weeds. He began to realize that the fluctuations mentioned by this subordinate might be the same as the familiar fluctuations he had felt before. And all of this seemed to indicate that something important was about to happen...

In the magnificent palace of the demon clan, the lights were on and the place was magnificent. In the center of the palace, Luo Dan sat on a throne carved from obsidian, surrounded by a faint demonic aura, looking majestic and mysterious. His eyes were like stars in the abyss, flashing with wisdom and power. At this moment, his eyes were fixed on the palace door, where two demon clan soldiers stood, their eyes shining, obviously full of anticipation for what was about to happen.

"Sir, this is our model general who has won every battle before!" A soldier introduced in a loud voice, his tone full of respect and pride for the general. As he finished speaking, another soldier led a huge dragon slowly into the hall. The dragon exuded a faint luster, and its scales sparkled brightly in the sun. It was obvious at first glance that it was extraordinary.

"This is the dragon he specially invited. It once had a close relationship with our demon clan." The soldier continued, with a hint of expectation in his eyes, as if he really hoped that Luodan would accept this dragon.

However, the moment Luo Dan saw the dragon, his eyes suddenly became fierce. He narrowed his eyes, and the scene of the last battle with the dragon emerged in his mind. That time, he wanted to capture the dragon, but unexpectedly let it escape. Now, the dragon dared to appear under his nose, and Luo Dan's anger was instantly ignited.

He clenched his fists, his knuckles turned white due to the force, and there was a slight sound. The surrounding demon soldiers noticed that something was wrong with Luo Dan, and they all turned to look at the dragon, secretly speculating in their hearts what kind of grudges there were between this dragon and the adults.

"Humph, so it's you, this evil beast!" Luo Dan finally spoke, his voice as cold as the wind, with unquestionable majesty, "I let you get away with it last time, but today you dare to fall into my trap again!"

Jiaolong was startled when he heard this, but he remained calm. He knew that the purpose of coming here today was to seek the protection of the demons to fight against the bullying of the human race. So, he bowed his head respectfully and said in a sincere tone: "Sir, I came here this time with the sincere intention of joining the demons. I know that there were some misunderstandings between you and me before, but please believe me, I came here with sincerity this time."

Luo Dan heard this and sneered: "Sincerity? How can you, a beast, talk about sincerity? However, since you dare to come today, then tell me the reason why you surrendered to the demon clan. If you can convince me, maybe I will give you a chance."

Jiaolong was delighted when he heard this, as he knew this was his only chance. So he began to tell in detail about his grievances with the human race and the importance of the demon race to him. His words were sincere and his emotions were genuine, which moved the demon soldiers present.

After listening to Jiaolong's story, Luo Dan's coldness gradually disappeared. He pondered for a moment and finally said, "Okay, I'll give you a chance. (End of this chapter)
