Eternal Beast Taming Family

Seeing that its struggles were futile, the "Blazing Sunbird" gave up and lay down on its side in the shadows, folding its wings.

"Want me to submit? Forget about it. My loyalty to Your Majesty Phoenix Feather Demon Lord is as clear as day and night. Forget about it."

"A bird like you has nothing tough about it except for its beak. Keep it locked up for now."

Chu Shengyuan shrugged, and the tail of the "Mysterious Black Dragon Emperor" flicked gently, causing the black Shadow Prison to crash onto the deck behind the warship, carrying the firebird.

"Sigh, aren't you going to offer some conditions? How can you try to persuade someone to surrender like this?"

The voice of the "Blazing Sunbird" came from afar, as if they were discussing something.

Chu Shengyuan heard it, but he didn't have time to pay attention to it. The general of the city had already been subdued, and Black Dragon City could be taken down without breaking a sweat.

The enormous dragon head slowly descended above the city, and the black dragon's deliberately deep voice resounded.

"I am the Black Dragon. This city was born from the blessings of my clan. Now that my clan has been revived, this city should serve a wise ruler and follow my Black Dragon clan as its master."

"Open the city gates immediately and welcome my men into the city!"

A massive black dragon head floated in the sky, and the pressure it released was absolutely terrifying, not to mention the city's natural pursuit of the black dragon race.

Before long, the four gates of Black Dragon City were slowly opened from the inside.

Among them were several domain-rank demonic beasts resembling scaled claws, which, after leaving the city, paid homage in the direction of the "Mysterious Black Dragon Emperor."

"Welcome back to the Black Dragon Clan! We are ready to welcome His Majesty the Black Dragon into the city."

"Mysterious Black Dragon Emperor" and Chu Shengyuan slowly landed at the city gate facing east.

The four scaled, claw-like source beasts that greeted them all carried an aura of shadow, suggesting they had been exposed to the aura of the Black Dragon Secret Realm for a very long time.

So much so that when they faced the "Mysterious Black Dragon Emperor," they truly exhibited the natural submission and fear that a subordinate race would show to a superior race.

Perhaps it was because they were tainted by the aura of the black dragon that the "Mysterious Black Dragon Emperor" felt a sense of familiarity when looking at them, so it slightly restrained its own aura.

"In this Black Dragon City, are you four demons the most powerful?"

The four demonic beasts, some with sharp horns on their heads, others with scales on their faces, and still others crawling on all fours, all nodded.

One of the beasts, which was closest to humanoid in form except for its blue hair and curved horns, respectfully spoke:

"Originally, the city was dominated by the Blazing Sun Bird, but now that it has been captured by you, the four of us demons are the ones in charge of the city."

"Have you truly submitted and accepted the teachings of my Black Dragon Clan?"

The four demons exchanged glances and then smiled obsequiously, saying, "Black Dragon City was originally built because of the Black Dragon Clan. Now that Lord Black Dragon has been resurrected and returned, we naturally submit sincerely and are very willing to accept his teachings."

Looking at the demons, they didn't seem to have any objections. On the contrary, they seemed to have a faint expectation, hoping that after the Black Dragon took over the city, it would bring them a leap in their racial level.

Chu Shengyuan stepped past the four demons and headed towards the city gate.

"Let's go into the city and take a look." These few words came out of Chu Shengyuan's mouth.

The enormous head of the "Mysterious Black Dragon Emperor" nodded slightly in the air, then followed Chu Shengyuan into the city.

The four demons who lagged behind looked at each other, all of them seeing the doubt in each other's eyes. How come this human seemed to be above Lord Black Dragon in status?

Could it be that the human is a chosen one of the more noble demon race than Lord Black Dragon, who is also the recipient of the blessing?

Could there be a race more noble than Lord Black Dragon at the Transcendent Realm? Could it be...? Thinking of a certain possibility, the four demon beasts paused for a moment.

A moment later, as if waking from a deep dream, they quickly turned around and trotted to follow Chu Shengyuan and the black dragon.

Although I had been to Black Dragon City before, I had gone directly into the Black Dragon Secret Realm last time and had not actually entered the city.

Black Dragon City is undoubtedly much better than Black Rock City was back then. The streets are wide, but perhaps because of the battle just now, there are hardly any pedestrians on the streets.

The doors of the houses on both sides were tightly closed, and through the cracks in the doors, one could see curious eyes staring out, some human and some demon beasts.

The fact that demonic beasts also lived in houses was quite strange to Chu Shengyuan, because when he first arrived in Black Rock City, the demonic beasts either lived in the open air or in caves.

According to the monsters, they found the houses built for them cramped and inconvenient. Later, Chu Shengyuan renovated Black Rock City.

Suitable houses were built for the different sizes of various monsters, so that they gradually got used to living in the houses.

The monsters in Black Dragon City seem to be more civilized, with some exhibiting more human-like features than most in Black Rock City.

For example, this "Azure Bamboo Floating Scale Demon" with blue hair and long horns is almost identical to a human. Only the two horns on its head and the strong demonic aura make it easy to identify.

Perhaps if we venture deeper into these Hundred Thousand Mountains, the monsters in those cities will become increasingly similar to humans, until it becomes impossible to distinguish between humans and monsters.

"Since you've sincerely submitted, let's go straight to the treasure vault."

Having traveled this far, aside from the somewhat dim buildings shrouded in shadow and the somewhat oppressive atmosphere within the city, there was really nothing new or exciting, not at all as vibrant as the newly built Wandao City by the Chu family.

Upon hearing Chu Shengyuan's words, several powerful demons within the city immediately changed direction, pointing towards the north of the city.

"The treasure vault is over there."

Chu Shengyuan followed several demonic beasts and changed direction. However, the beasts would occasionally raise their eyes and look at him furtively, as if they had something to say but were holding a grudge.

Unexpectedly, even demonic beasts would behave so hesitantly. Chu Shengyuan stopped and looked at the demonic beasts.

"Just say what you have to say. Don't act so timid and hesitant. It makes people uncomfortable."

The demonic beasts exchanged glances, and it was the one that most resembled a human, the "Azure Bamboo Floating Scale Demon," that spoke first.

"I want you to know in advance that although Black Dragon City has a treasure vault, there are not many treasures inside. The treasures have all been presented to the upper city by the Fiery Sunbirds that guard it."

Aside from some essential cultivation supplies, we haven't accumulated any real treasures here, even after many years of accumulation.

Hearing the beast's words, Chu Shengyuan raised an eyebrow.

"Your city, belonging to the scaled-clawed source beasts, is ruled by a feathered demon beast, and it hasn't even left behind any treasures. Haven't you realized this blatant suppression?"
