Being a talent in the Chusheng Demon Sect

Chapter 1002 Filial Piety and the Old Dragon Lord

Lu Yang was startled by the old dragon king's decisiveness.

No, I haven't said anything yet. I just called your name once, and you immediately called me "Dad." Don't you have even the slightest doubt in your heart?

But he quickly reacted.

'That old mudfish, he's actually quite shrewd!'

Meanwhile, the old dragon king maintained a respectful, fearful, and admiring gaze towards Lü Yang, while already plotting his own scheme.

He certainly had doubts.

But does that matter?

The important thing is not whether the person in front of him is Zu Long or his father, but that the other party can now completely control his own life and death.

This rule applies: regardless of whether Lü Yang is the First Emperor or not, he must treat him like his own father. If he is, that would be ideal—father and son recognizing each other, a win-win situation. If not, that's fine too. I've already called him "father," which means I've fallen for the trap. You can't just kill me now, can you?
Thinking of this, the old dragon king's expression became even more sincere:

"Dad, me"

"enough."

Before the old dragon king could finish speaking, Lü Yang interrupted him directly: "Ao Guang, after all these years, you have not only become cowardly, but also increasingly hypocritical."

Old Dragon looked completely bewildered.

Lu Yang, however, sized him up, inwardly sneering: 'This old mudfish is actually quite cunning; a mere name clearly can't scare him.'

Yes, the old dragon king has now realized that his name is indeed a secret known only to the Nascent Soul Dao Lord. But so what? The Dao Lord can simply tell this secret to his subordinate Great True Lord and have that Great True Lord set a trap for him.

After all, if others don't know, how could he not know?

"The Dao Lord has no shortage of Great True Lords under his command!"

From the golden age of cultivators to the era of the Cave Heaven Method, after all these years, do you really think that there aren't even double-digit numbers of Great True Monarchs in the Immortal Pivot?
Don't say anything else.

Of the three fundamental paths, aside from the destroyed Dharma body, there are still many practitioners of magical power and spells, and even more so of the Five Elements and Yin-Yang.

What about the five major celestial numbers?

[Variables] and [calamities] are one thing, but what about [destiny], [fate], and [fate]? Are there no cultivators among these three families?

Of course, the old dragon king himself was not clear about the details, but he was certain that there were several great true lords under the command of the four dogs of the Immortal Pivot, but they had been hiding in the world until they were needed to take action, just like the Taiyin Immortal Venerable who appeared out of nowhere five thousand years ago and took control of the Heavenly Palace.

'This person might be one of them.'

'Otherwise, it's impossible to explain how he could conceal his wisdom so perfectly. It's probably not his doing alone, but rather that a Dao Lord was secretly helping him conceal it.'

The old dragon king pondered in his heart.

After much deliberation, he still felt that the person opposite him was his biological father, and the possibility of it being Zu Long was not high, since Zu Long was personally suppressed by the Holy Sect's founder.

He has faith in the Holy Ancestor.

Given that person's "destiny," the seal they set up should have been completely flawless. The only "variable" they deliberately left behind was the old dragon king himself.

'While the [variable] aspect is undeniably powerful, it is undoubtedly the number one force in the Light Sea.'

However, since it lacks a Dao Lord to oversee it, there are still ways to suppress it once the opposing [fixed force] reaches a certain strength.

For example, the seal of the First Emperor.

The Holy Ancestor sealed almost all the gaps, but left the Old Dragon Lord alone as a "variable" in the seal, allowing him to survive.

However, in reality, the "variable" Old Dragon Lord was still under his control. Through this method, the Holy Sect Ancestor completely sealed off the Ancestral Dragon. Otherwise, with the status of a Nascent Soul Dao Lord, he could have made infinite variables with a single thought, and the Immortal Pivot would not have been stable for so many years.

at this time.

Looking at the old Dragon King kneeling on the ground, Lü Yang spoke again, but the old man's expression was playful as he whispered, "Ao Guang, what are you thinking?"

"Huh?" The old dragon king was taken aback.

Before he could even think of a reply, Lü Yang spoke for him: "You're thinking that I couldn't possibly be the Ancestral Dragon, but rather that I'm an imposter." "You suspect that I'm a Great True Lord under another Dao Lord."

"You think the seal suppressing the Ancestral Dragon is indestructible and that the Ancestral Dragon could not escape. No wonder, no wonder, Ao Guang, you dared to refine such a treasure."

Boom!

Lu Yang's last words echoed in the old dragon king's ears like the grand sound of a great bell, causing his dragon body to tremble and making it almost impossible for him to conceal his emotional turmoil.

'He knew! He actually knew!'

'How could he possibly know?!'

If the name Ao Guang was still a secret, not unknown to anyone, then what Lü Yang revealed at this moment was the deepest secret of the Old Dragon King.

Could the four Dao Lords possibly know this?

Of course, but this matter concerns fundamental cultivation, so the Dao Lord needs to come and see for himself. Otherwise, it's unlikely that any clues will be discovered.

However, the person before him knew.
For a moment, the old dragon king was terrified and knelt on the ground, speechless. After a long while, he finally managed to squeeze out a sound through gritted teeth:

"Father, I don't understand what you mean."

Can't admit it!

His private actions, whether the person in front of him is truly Zu Long or a subordinate of the Four Immortal Dogs, would be impossible for anyone to tolerate once they find out!
Soon, the voice of the Taoist priest in black robes came from top to bottom:

"Don't you understand what I mean? I think you understand in your heart but are just confused on the surface. I'll just ask you one question: where are the corpses of the other dragon lords?"

"The bodies of the Dragon Lords are not merely about holding positions of power, but also about their origins. They were created by the Ancestral Dragon with his own gaze, and you are the embodiment of that gaze. Therefore, among the five Dragon Lords, you are the first, and the other Dragon Lords regard you as a kind and respectable elder brother."

"But what about you?"

"Rivers, lakes, and seas, five dragon lords, the best true dragons of our time, and one of the finest materials in the world, are absolutely perfect for refining true treasures."

At this point, Lü Yang shook the [Dragon-Dispelling Ruler] in his hand.

"You should refine them all."

"Your four blood brothers, plus yourself, make a total of five true treasures. You wish to use this to attain a higher level of enlightenment, a level of enlightenment born from the Ancestral Dragon."

Lü Yang's voice was ethereal and unremarkable.

However, each word felt like a mountain pressing down heavily on the old dragon king, causing him to tremble slightly and his forehead to press even closer to the ground.

That's right, all of it.

At this moment, the old dragon king almost stopped thinking, because every word Lu Yang said seemed to see through his thoughts, leaving him with no way to refute them.

Let me guess what you're thinking.

Lu Yang smiled faintly and said in a low voice:
"Since my brothers are all dead and the Ancestral Dragon has been sealed away, I might as well let them become the foundation for my further advancement, so that they can shine for me and for the True Dragon Clan."

That's right, that's it.

The dead dragon is meaningless; it is no longer a brother, just a few chunks of meat, and even then, it's meat that others covet. I can't keep it at all.

Since you're going to benefit someone else sooner or later anyway, you might as well benefit yourself first.

The same applies to Zulong. Since his father had no way out anyway, wouldn't it be better to leave the inheritance to him sooner rather than later?

Old Dragon King remained silent, a last glimmer of hope lingering in his heart: 'I've never revealed myself; he's probably just bluffing. As long as I deny everything.'

The next second, Lü Yang spoke.

He uttered only three words, which, like a storm, shattered the last glimmer of hope in the old dragon king's heart, leaving him utterly despairing and collapsing helplessly to the ground.

"【The Dragon King】, right?"
