As he spewed Divine Fire, trying to burn off the "Dog Skin Plaster" sticking to his mouth, Yang Longxi, seeing his own schemes had succeeded, couldn't help but burst into wild laughter:
"A bunch of juniors must now recognize the methods of the Dragon Rhino Ancestor."
"Don't cry, don't cry, your ability to struggle to this point is already praiseworthy."
"Moreover, after I succeed, it won't even count as a bad thing for you, nor can it even be considered a failure."
"I heard from my beloved disciple Sanyuan that you group of Great Sect talents have supported this kid with the Ancestor Dragon Bloodline, who's stuck to my mouth now, and together you've built the Ancestor Dragon Society, aiming for national salvation and the well-being of the world, so that tens of millions of mortals here no longer have to suffer from the Evil Demon's harassment, the trampling of wars, or the ravages of plagues."
"If that is your wish, this old ancestor can also realize it for you."
"Back in the day, I, Yang Longxi, also harbored such grand aspirations, and truly achieved them. While I may not have been the best Emperor, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say 'the country was peaceful and the people safe' when I was on the throne."
"Once my true body descends to this world, I will surely spread the Dragon Rhino Dao Power throughout this province, using my Dao to rescue these ignorant masses, hoping that everyone can transform into dragons and achieve Great Freedom... As long as the tens of millions in New Moon Province all become my Dragon Sons and Grandsons, all cultivate my 'Nine Revolutions Dragon God Scripture,' venerate me as the Daoist Ancestor, praise my honored name, and follow my Dao Path, naturally there will be no illness, no catastrophe."
"After a thousand years, this mortal world's charm is still intoxicating; this old ancestor simply cannot wait any longer."
Yang Longxi clearly saw that with every word he spoke, the expressions of Zhong Ziyang, Chen Xiyi, Lin Ru Niu, and other disciples of the Great Sects became uglier.
Even fear that they dared not believe began to emerge on their faces.
Almost simultaneously, they turned their heads to look at him.
Seeing this, the old monster felt extremely satisfied.
He thought his methods had completely subdued these talented juniors.
Little did they know, what Zhong Ziyang and the others were staring at… was Ying Qingdi.
In the minds of the nine of them, a revelation was thundering back.
It was Tao Qian's secret disclosure from the beginning.
"It's true, it's the prayer of Ying Qingdi."
"The rebellion succeeded, saving All People, freeing millions of New Moon from numerous calamities in this way?"
"Are our efforts and struggles nothing but a joke?"
"Is this the truth? Is this the conclusion?"
It's no wonder Zhong Ziyang and the others would think this way, acting so out of character.
When Tao Qian disclosed the secret, he mentioned many examples of how Ying Qingdi had realized his wishes from childhood in a special way.
But those instances were minor, inconsequential.
All the talents believed that with their methods, if they united against him, they could change the outcome.
Who would have thought that the final outcome would be ; naturally, they were unable to accept it.
Just as they were overwhelmed and somewhat in a daze, abruptly, a message entered their ears:
"My friends, do not be disheartened."
"This is not over yet. I am sure that old monster will not get the Demon Pill, just look inside the Evil Cave."
These words, had they come from someone else, might not have been believed.
But coming from the Brother Lin Ru Niu, who had given them surprises several times before, the effect was different.
The nine, including Zhong Ziyang, hurriedly looked towards the corpse portal following the voice, and at that moment, indeed, there was a change.
On one side of the Evil Cave was Beichan, expert from the Xuan Dao sect, and in the firmament above was the Ten Thousand Spirit Demon Machine, gliding around, devouring corpses for Alchemy.
It was precisely beneath that Demon Machine, a mountain-sized Floating Island suddenly exhibited traces of the Forbidden Technique, before immediately exploding.
A dozen figures flew out from it, the very first one being an odd-looking youngster.
This youngster appeared comical, with green robes, green hair, and a sausage-shaped mouth.
His mood was terrific, and as he flew out, he was grinning broadly.
Anyone could see why he was so delighted: treasures.
The youngster, like a Duobao Child on a tour out of the mountains, was adorned with treasures all over his body; rainbows and radiant lights, Immortal Radiance and Buddha Light, arose in strands, soaring through the sky.
His usual singing catchphrase also came through the portal: "I am a Wild Leek from the mountains, I come to this place to pick up treasures..."
Halfway through his song, he suddenly saw the Ten Thousand Spirit Demon Machine moving above.
Far from showing fear on his face, he became even more excited, turning his head and shouting to two figures behind him:
"Little Age, Lian Jing'er."
"Quick, don't say Brother Shan Jiu doesn't look after you, there's a big thing up there, it's your favorite kind."
"Mealtime, mealtime."
