Chapter 123

"Who exactly are you?"

Di Tian's pupils trembled, and his voice shook.

A feeling told him that this guy in front of him was not human at all, but a true dragon.

"Azure Dragon of the East, ancestor of all dragons!"

"Bold unfilial son, seeing your ancestor and still not paying respects?!"

The Azure Dragon of the East's voice was low and deep.

The restrained dragon's might spread out, all falling upon Di Tian.

Di Tian's bloodline trembled; his body and soul were filled with fear, as if he had truly seen his ancestor.

On the spot, he dropped to both knees.

"Unworthy descendant Di Tian, I pay my respects to the Dragon Ancestor!"

Di Tian shouted.

It saw hope of waging war again in the divine realm.

"Di Tian, let him in; I want to have a chat with it."

Suddenly, a voice rang out in Di Tian's sea of consciousness: that of His Majesty, the Silver Dragon King Gu Yue.

Di Tian staggered, then replied in his mind: "It is Your Majesty."

The Azure Dragon of the East said indifferently: "Considering your sincere worship, this old ancestor will spare your life."

Having spoken, its figure faded away.

It turned back into Li Fei.

"Dragon Ancestor, that person of my family wishes to invite you into the small world for a chat; I don't know if you would honor us with your presence," Di Tian said nervously.

"Silver Dragon King Gu Yue?" Li Fei said lightly.

"Yes." Di Tian's pupils constricted; he hadn't expected the other party to really know—indeed, their background is not simple.

"How rare; then let's go meet them." Li Fei nodded.

"Please!"

Di Tian opened the entrance to the small world.

The two stepped inside.

The destroyed places outside also, at the same time, saw a rich life force rise, quickly repairing.

Upon entering the small world, the first thing Li Fei saw was a completely different soul beast forest.

Everything here is more spectacular than outside! Nobody expected that within this small world lay an expansive ancient forest.

Towering ancient trees stood upon the fertile soil, their branches and leaves like canopies blocking the sun; occasionally, the roar of fierce beasts echoed from the dense woods, shaking the hearts of intruders.

Sunlight filtered through the treetops, scattering in dappled patches upon the moss-covered ground, forming specks of light that seemed like elves lost in this ancient world.

At the forest's center lies a Life Lake, its water clear to the bottom, as if able to cleanse all dust.

On the lake's surface, lotuses stretched in patches; a gentle breeze brushed past, making the lotuses sway softly, emitting a rustling sound.

By the lake, beings of all races gathered to drink and play, the vital energy here converging, flowing, endless.

On the lake's other side, a massive fierce beast lay asleep, its body seeming to merge with the surrounding natural scenery; countless vines and wildflowers grew upon its huge frame, as if nature's mother had endowed it with boundless vitality.

Even in slumber, the majestic aura it exuded kept the surrounding creatures in awe.

Not far off, several young beasts frolicked, leaping among the treetops, chasing each other's silhouettes, filling the forest with joyous cries.

Their carefree demeanor reflected the tranquility and harmony of this world.

As night fell, a thin mist rose from the lake's surface, veiling this land of life in a mysterious shroud.

Moonlight spilled upon the lake's surface, shimmering like scattered stars falling into the mortal realm.

Here, time seemed to freeze; all worries and strife drifted far from the mundane, leaving only nature's breath and the pulse of life.

This is a small world brimming with mystery and beauty; the Lake of Life nurtures all things, the fierce beast guards its peace, and all beings coexist in harmony, together composing an ancient and eternal hymn of life.

"Dragon Ancestor, how do you find this place?" Di Tian harbored a little anticipation. "Very beautiful, even more beautiful than outside," Li Fei exclaimed.

He thought, after returning this time, he would use his own spacetime power to create a small world, move the Li family into it, and make the small world entirely the Li family's headquarters.

Just thinking about it makes him excited.

"Your Majesty, the Dragon Ancestor has arrived." Di Tian came to the side of the Life Lake and offered a respectful salute.

"Dragon Ancestor." Seven-colored jade appeared, emitting seven-colored light, carefully scrutinizing the tall youth before it; from his person, it indeed felt a dragon's might surpassing that of a Dragon God, prompting her to feel an urge to submit.

"Sir, who exactly are you, or rather, where do you come from? What is your relation to the Dragon God?"

The Silver Dragon King Gu Yue inquired.

"I come from beyond Douluo Star; I am unlike you—you are the dragon clan, and the Dragon God is as such, but I am a true dragon, not belonging to the dragon clan, but transcending the dragon clan and even the Dragon God!"

"All you dragons are my offspring."

"And I am the primordial dragon! The Azure Dragon of the East!"

"However, I am the inheritor chosen by the Azure Dragon of the East!"

Anyway, having come this far, Li Fei simply spoke up to give these people a little shock.

"From beyond Douluo Star?!"

"A true dragon? A primordial dragon?!"

"The Azure Dragon of the East? An inheritor?!"

Di Tian and the Silver Dragon King Gu Yue were both greatly shocked, even feeling a hint of incomprehension.

But just hearing it felt incredibly awesome.

However, coming from beyond Douluo Star, they are aware of that.

Because they are the same.

They originally did not belong to this planet.

It was only because after the Divine Realm war, the Dragon God was slain, the Soul Beast clan was defeated, and the surviving soul beasts fled the Divine Realm in droves, hiding in the Lower Realm to avoid being hunted by the gods of the Divine Realm.

The Silver Dragon King Gu Yue is one of the incarnations formed from the soul after the Dragon God was slain.

The Golden Dragon King formed from flesh was beaten to death, and his soul was imprisoned and suppressed beneath the Divine Tower of the Divine Realm.

The Soul Beast clan suffered a crushing defeat, utterly miserable.

She even still has wounds left from the Asura God's Judgment that have not healed.

According to her prediction, at least ten thousand or even twenty thousand years are still needed to heal this wound.

She had originally been asleep, but the previous appearance of the Eastern Azure Dragon woke her from her slumber.

"How does your rank compare to that of the other Divine Realm gods?" the Silver Dragon King Gu Yue asked curiously.

"Naturally, I surpass them." Li Fei said indifferently.

"As long as my soul power reaches level one hundred, I can inherit the divine position of the Eastern Rising, and my rank will surpass even the Creator God!" Having said that, he was full of confidence! "What is your view on humans, soul beasts, and gods?" the Silver Dragon King Gu Yue asked.

She wanted to confirm Li Fei's stance.

"There's no particular opinion; existence justifies itself." Li Fei said indifferently.

"Our soul beasts have been deprived of the qualification to become gods; is that also reasonable?" the Silver Dragon King Gu Yue said.

"This is the outcome of your rebellion, and also a form of punishment." Li Fei replied.

"In a world where the strong are respected, your failed rebellion makes you the weaker side; they became the victors, and establishing this rule is understandable." Li Fei's words left both Di Tian and the Silver Dragon King Gu Yue silent.

"If one day we counterattack the Divine Realm, which side would you stand on?"

After a moment of silence, the Silver Dragon King Gu Yue asked.

"I'm not particularly fond of the so-called gods of this world; perhaps I would stand on the side of god-slaying." Li Fei smiled slightly.
