After Ao Tian had left, Black Dragon sneaked back from the depths of Dragon Island with a sneaky look in his eyes. Seeing Fat Long standing on the beach, his eyes lit up and he strode over.
"Hey."
With uncontainable joy in his eyes, Black Dragon patted his chest, raised his arms in the air, and gesticulated, his face beaming with pride, "See? Fat Long, I've achieved Divinity Transformation, I've successfully transford."
"Hmm... right."
With a feigned nonchalance, Fat Long nodded, responding, "I've achieved Divinity Transformation too."
Black Dragon completely ignored Fat Long's words and walked over to the Chao Tian Sect disciples, approaching each one of them with his grin stretching ear to ear.
"I've achieved Divinity Transformation!"
"See? I, Black Dragon, have achieved Divinity Transformation!"
"Still recognize ? Feel a bit unfamiliar after Transformation, don't you? I'm Black Dragon."
The disciples of Chao Tian Sect were sowhat indifferent, dimming the excitent in Black Dragon's eyes. Just as he was about to share his joy with his sisters and aunt, a voice suddenly ca from behind him.
"Wow."
Staring at Black Dragon in disbelief, Qu Gui's voice trembled with shock, "I just realized... you're actually Black Dragon. I didn't recognize you after your Transformation. Don't you still have three hundred years until adulthood? How did you suddenly achieve Divinity Transformation?"
"This is impossible!!!"
"Ahem."
Black Dragon, headed towards the deeper areas of Dragon Island, stopped and turned to look at a stunned Qu Gui, his face overflowing with pride and excitent, feigned nonchalance as he spoke casually.
"Ever heard of 'Dragon Palace'? It's the most mysterious Forbidden Land in the palace, where there's a Dragon Clan heritage. Whoever passes the heritage will instantly reach adulthood and gain the Dragon Clan heritage."
"Of the Dragon Clan who participate in the heritage, less than one in a hundred survive to erge."
"Not only did I co back alive, but I also obtained the highest Grade of the Dragon Clan heritage."
"Interested in hearing more?"
"This..." Qu Gui was elated, "Is it really okay for to hear this? It won't leak any divine secrets, will it?"
"It's fine."
Clearing his throat, Black Dragon began to enthusiastically recount his story with a dramatic flair, "The first round of the Dragon Clan heritage was to defeat a giant dragon in its pri, and that's a pri giant dragon, mind you. I'm just a Young Dragon, how could I possibly defeat a pri giant dragon?"
"Yes, how could that be possible?" Qu Gui's eyes were full of concern.
"But maybe, just maybe, I do have so talent. During the fight, I comprehended the Bloodline Secret Technique of the Cloud Hiding Dragon, 'Dragon Poison'!"
"Deserving of the na Black Dragon!"
"Then with a little trick..."
"Wow, unimaginable!"
"Black Dragon, you're really amazing!"
"Just realized not only is your strength exceptional, your strategies are truly unparalleled!"
"Ah, that must have hurt, right?"
"You're too harsh on yourself, Black Dragon. With such a resolute spirit, you're definitely destined for greatness!"
"If it were , I would have just given up."
Qu Gui's exaggerated expressions and bombastic tone had beco a spectacle on the beach. With such an enthusiastic audience, Black Dragon grew more excited as he recounted the challenges he faced during the Dragon Clan heritage, with Qu Gui constantly providing intense emotional responses to each point.
...
"..."
With a sigh of helplessness, Fat Long didn't quite know what to say as he watched this scene unfold. It had to be said, Qu Gui's skill in playing the supportive role was indeed professional – if Cultivation didn't work out, he could certainly make a living as a storyteller in a teahouse.
Perfect.
And then——
Black Dragon, having finished his story, suddenly pulled Qu Gui over to his side, his face serious as he looked at him, "Fat Long, you helped get the 'Dragon Clan Bloodline Token' from my father, allowing my Bloodline to be upgraded from Grade Seven to Eight."
"I won't forget your kindness to ."
"I know you've been good to ."
"The reason I managed to pass the heritage was that during the fight, I activated the 'Dragon Clan Bloodline Token', succeeded in advancing to Grade Eight Bloodline, and even comprehended the Cloud Hiding Dragon's Bloodline Secret Technique 'Dragon Poison'."
"So——"
"I suggest, the three of us!"
"Black Dragon, Fat Long, Qu Gui, how about we, like your Human Clan Cultivators, swear brotherhood today? What do you say?"
Standing behind Black Dragon, Qu Gui whispered softly, "Elder, Black Dragon dragged over here."
"Huh?"
Fat Long paused, then looked at Black Dragon in bewildernt, "It's not that I don't want to beco sworn brothers with you, Black Dragon, but doesn't this relationship seem a bit... mixed up in terms of seniority?"
"I'm an elder of Chao Tian Sect, Qu Gui is an outer sect elder. Based on age, would I have to call him brother in the future?"
"And I'm about to marry your sister, which would make your brother-in-law. What would you call then?"
"No problem."
Black Dragon shook his head, "We keep each matter separate, we don't follow age order. If we did, I should be the eldest brother."
"Let's have Fat Long as the eldest brother, I'll be the second elder brother, and Qu Gui will be the third."
"So, third brother it is..." Fat Long said exasperatingly.
"Third brother sounds nicer."
"..."
With a sincere tone, Black Dragon tugged at Fat Long's arm, his eyes full of anticipation as he urged, "Please, Fat Long, and about marrying my sister, you don't need to take that too seriously. In the Dragon Clan, there isn't even a concept of marriage. Father was just imitating the Human Race."
"He wanted to use the marriage to strengthen the bonds between the Dragon Clan and Chao Tian Sect."
"So blunt?" Fat Long's face showed a tinge of awkwardness.
"According to stories in the human world, you and my sister are political sacrifices."
