Chapter 37 It's my fault for not knowing my friends!
Chapter 37 It's my fault for not knowing my friends!
Now in a precarious situation, Zhulong can only hope that Haotian can be fooled.
After a moment's consideration, Zhulong spoke up: "Fellow Daoist Haotian!"
I have lost this contest of magic!
Now, please release me.
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhulong turned his gaze to Haotian.
I hope to see a way out of my predicament from his face.
pity!
Zhulong underestimated Haotian's intelligence.
Haotian was looking at him with a mocking expression.
The smile on his face was, perhaps, a mockery of Zhulong's self-inflicted trap.
Or perhaps it's the joy of winning a battle of wits.
But after waiting for a while, Zhulong still did not hear Haotian's reply.
At this moment, Zhulong also understood that Haotian's smile was mostly mocking.
This is mocking Zhulong for not being able to see the situation clearly.
At this moment, Zhulong couldn't help but recall what Haotian had said to Kunpeng before.
"After your demise, all the magical treasures will belong to me!"
These words, applied to Zhulong at this moment, roughly convey the same meaning.
Now, Zhulong is like fat meat in a cauldron, and Haotian can eat him however he wants.
Should Haotian just let him go like that?
impossible!
If Haotian had even a little ambition, he wouldn't have done this.
The principle of winning people over with virtue also depends on the individual.
Do you think these old fogies will be convinced just because you've done them a few favors?
Even Zhulong himself thought it was impossible, let alone Haotian?
Thinking of this, Zhulong had no choice but to speak again: "Fellow Daoist Haotian!"
The dragons are willing to submit to the Heavenly Court and will henceforth obey your commands.
Upon hearing Zhulong's words, Haotian said calmly, "Fellow Daoist Zhulong!"
Now that things have come to this, do you think the Dragon Clan can break away from the Heavenly Court?
I think so.
We're not going to talk about dragons right now.
Dragons?
Whether they submit or not is not up to them.
In the past, Emperor Jun and Taiyi were able to burn the sky and boil the sea.
I am confident that I am capable of doing so.
But whether the dragon race will still be the same dragon race at that point is hard to say.
But to me, it makes no difference.
Now, our problem lies with you, Fellow Daoist Zhulong.
How do you plan to resolve this situation?
I have already said that before.
If I were to take action, the price would be extremely heavy.
What are your thoughts now, fellow Daoist?
After saying this, Haotian stared intently at Zhulong.
Upon hearing Haotian's words, Zhulong's heart sank.
This is bad!
Judging from Haotian's expression, today you either need to bring out something that can impress him.
Either you have to learn from Kunpeng.
He was branded a traitor, and from then on, Zhulong was no longer a part of his life.
of course.
They could also refuse to comply even unto death.
But the consequence of doing this is that Zhulong will definitely die.
Haotian, at most, would put on a show and sigh with regret.
And shed a few crocodile tears as well.
He was praised for his integrity.
But this is not what Zhulong wanted!
If he truly had integrity, Zhulong would have been finished when facing Dijun and Taiyi.
Moreover, the time spent agreeing to the price from Haotian was far too hasty.
They didn't even greet me. What price will I have to pay for that?
They hastily assumed they could easily get away with it.
After thinking it over for a while, Zhulong decided it would be better to start with spiritual treasures first.
After all, what if Haotian was moved by his magical treasure?
Is this wishful thinking?
No!
This is the right way to approach negotiations.
I'll think about it.
Zhulong then spoke up, "Then what kind of magical treasure do I need, fellow Daoist, to let this duel go?"
Upon hearing this, Haotian couldn't help but give Zhulong a deep look.
He then slowly said, "Fellow Daoist Zhulong's words are a bit too frivolous."
Fellow Daoist Kunpeng intends to use my things to negotiate with me.
However, I saw through his scheme.
Do you think I would compromise with you, Fellow Daoist Zhulong?
Or, as Fellow Daoist Zhulong might think.
"Can the spiritual treasure you offer surpass the Hetu and Luoshu?"
Upon hearing Haotian's words, Zhulong felt a chill run down his spine.
Can Zhulong provide a spiritual treasure even better than the Hetu and Luoshu?
That is impossible!
If such a magical treasure truly existed, how could the Dragon Clan have fallen to its current state?
As for whether Haotian will compromise with Zhulong?
That's utter nonsense!
So, judging from the current situation...
There are not many options left.
He either dies and his spirit vanishes, or he turns back to see if the Ancestral Dragon will avenge him.
Either learn from Kunpeng.
He bowed deeply upon receiving a hand gesture.
A choice between two options.
Zhulong quickly made a decision based on his heart.
Let's learn from Kunpeng!
It's better to live a miserable life than to die a good death.
If you're not afraid of death, what's there to be afraid of in life?
Moreover.
With Fellow Daoist Kunpeng setting an example, it's not too shameful for me, Zhulong, to do the same.
After thinking it over, Zhulong said, "I am willing to submit to the Great Heavenly Venerable!"
We humbly request that the Great Celestial Venerable take us in!
Upon hearing Zhulong's words, Haotian did not immediately agree.
We're all veteran players, who doesn't know who?
Without proof, who would dare to make such a claim?
Kunpeng once gave a wisp of his primordial spirit to Dijun and Taiyi.
These can all be used to backstab someone at crucial moments.
Do you, Zhulong, think that I, Haotian, can trust you?
Don't blame me for being suspicious; it was that scoundrel Kunpeng who destroyed the trust.
If you want to blame someone, blame Kunpeng.
When Zhulong saw that Haotian did not reply, he immediately realized the problem.
Upon realizing the reason, Zhulong couldn't help but curse Kunpeng in his heart.
That guy has exhausted all the paths available to cultivators.
While cursing Kunpeng in his heart, Zhulong said aloud, "I know all the rules!"
I swear it now!
Then Zhulong repeated the oath that Kunpeng had made not long ago.
The same vow, recited by different monks.
At this moment, Zhulong's feelings were naturally quite different.
When Zhulong first heard Kunpeng recite it, he thought Kunpeng was a joke.
But now that it was being read aloud by himself, Zhulong felt as if he had a sentence to say.
After reciting the oath, Zhulong took out a wisp of his primordial spirit and handed it to Haotian.
"Please accept my sincerity, Your Majesty!"
Upon hearing this, Haotian glanced at the wisp of primordial spirit, then slightly raised his eyes to look at Zhulong.
"Thank you, Fellow Daoist Zhulong, for coming to the Heavenly Court and working together for the stability of the Primordial World!"
The words were spoken.
Haotian reached out and patted Zhulong on the shoulder.
Only then did he collect that wisp of primordial spirit and put it into the Investiture of the Gods.
Upon hearing Haotian's words, Zhulong's lips twitched.
Thank you so much for your thanks!
If possible, I would rather not accept this gratitude.
Your simple thank you came at a price I paid far greater than anything else.
Not only did they lose all the noodles, but they were also branded as traitors.
Even more seriously, freedom was lost forever.
Calming himself down, Zhulong tried to put on a smile.
"This is my duty!"
As a cultivator of the primordial world, I bear the inescapable responsibility for its stability and peace!
Haotian replied, "Good!"
If only I had known earlier that you had such a kind heart.
I would have invited you, fellow Daoist, to the Heavenly Court long ago to discuss important matters.
Whoops!
It's my fault for not knowing you!
But it's not too late now.
I hope that you, fellow Daoist, will join hands with me in the future.
Let's make this prehistoric world even more beautiful!
