Rebirth of the Supreme Celestial Being

Chapter 688 - All Parties Inquiry

Edited by Ea

“Mother, be careful of what you say.” Longyao Lingheng immediately said, “Even though this place belongs to the family, the walls have ears. The Yan family doesn’t like it when other Divine Clans talk about the succession. Mother should still be cautious.”

Hearing this, the Dragon Queen frowned. “Even you dare to contradict me?”

Longyao Lingheng was somewhat helpless. “That’s not what this child meant. It’s just that our North Land never took a side in the dispute over the throne of the Qianyuan Dynasty, let alone favored any party. Queen Mother, why bother giving others ammunition to use against you?”

“The Queen Mother was just upset, so she needed to vent a few words. Your Highness doesn’t have to be so nervous.” Longyao Yizhu’s perception was very good. When she saw the Dragon Queen was about to get angry, she smiled and comforted, “Besides, Your Highness just said that there are only our people here. So why worry about these words spreading?”

Longyao Yizhu was delicate and charming, and she was also the Holy Maiden of the dragon clan. In her early years, because she had no father and mother, she recognized the Dragon Queen as her adoptive mother. Her status was not low, and because she knew what to say, she was naturally liked by many people. Among them, Longyao Lingheng was also included.

Longyao Lingheng gave Longyao Yizhu face as he bowed his head and said, “It’s the son who worries too much. Queen Mother should not be angry. If she is angry, it’s the child’s fault.”

The Dragon Queen’s face turned from cloudy to sunny. She looked happy for a while and lightly scolded, “Look at you. All I’ve done is for you. You’re not as sensible as Yizhu.”

Longyao Lingheng quickly pleaded guilty.

Longyao Lingguang came up to the Dragon Queen and said with great enthusiasm, “Yan Tianhen really isn’t easy to deal with. Soon after he arrived at Myriad Dao Academy, he shamelessly stuck himself to Huarong Sword Venerable. Likely because Huarong Sword Venerable has connections with Fuyao Sect’s Esteemed Lan Yue, he didn’t refuse Yan Tianhen but maintained a superficial relationship. Later, Yan Tianhen pushed his nose and face more and climbed up the ladder. I don’t know what dirty means he used, but it made Huarong Sword Venerable regard him with special respect.”

The Dragon Queen frowned. “I heard that Huarong Sword Venerable’s fate is extremely noble, and he is probably the reincarnation of some ancient powerhouse. It is said that when he was in the Major Perfection Stage, he sneaked into the Tomb of Youshan alone, and two years later, he actually broke the barrier of the Tomb of Youshan and became a great power in the Grandmaster Stage. Such talents are really shocking! Now he is standing on the side of Hai Kuanglang, which is really unfavorable to us.”

Longyao Lingguang nodded. “This is what I was most worried about before. Huarong Sword Venerable and Esteemed Lan Yue are close friends, and Hai Kuanglang is Esteemed Lan Yue’s disciple. If he also enters the Dragon Tomb, wouldn’t it give Hai Kuanglang a big boost?”

The Dragon Queen took a deep breath. “He’s a Grandmaster. Is he truly shameless enough to join this fight?”

Longyao Lingguang replied, “It’s hard to say. Yan Tianhen is shameless, and Huarong Sword Venerable is obsessed with him. He really believes his words. If Yan Tianhen asks, he won’t refuse.”

It had to be said that although the direction was wrong, Longyao Lingguang’s guess was not bad.

The Dragon Queen immediately got angry and struck the table. “No, I can’t let him enter the Dragon Tomb!”

Longyao Lingheng didn’t care too much. “Even if he is a Grandmaster, if he enters the Dragon Tomb, his cultivation will be forcibly suppressed by the array. It will be no different from my master.”

“What do you know?” The Dragon Queen took a deep breath and said with dark eyes, “Once a Grandmaster, always a Grandmaster. Even if he is suppressed by the array to Major Perfection Stage, his aura is still that of a Grandmaster’s. I need to find a way to stop Lin Xuanzhi from ruining your victory!” ɴᴇᴡ ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀʀᴇ ᴘᴜʙʟɪsʜᴇᴅ ᴏɴ ɴovᴇl_Firᴇ.ɴet

Longyao Lingheng looked down for a moment. “The Dragon Tomb Holy Land doesn’t forbid Grandmasters from entering. There is also no such restriction in the rules of this competition. I am afraid that if Lin Xuanzhi insists on going in, there is nothing we can do.”

“It’s not like we can’t do anything.” Longyao Lingguang’s eyes turned, and he hooked his lips into a smile. “If something happened to Yan Tianhen, I think that because Huarong Sword Venerable loves him so much, he will never help Hai Kuanglang again.”

Longyao Lingheng’s eyelid twitched. “You mean, you want to do something to Yan Tianhen? Haven’t you forgotten what his status is? If he finds out afterwards that we are the culprits, the entire King Ye’s Palace will not let us go so easily.”

Longyao Lingguang replied, “Wouldn’t it be resolved if he didn’t find out that we did it? There are two white tiger cubs with Yan Tianhen, which are extremely stupid. If he’s not careful, one of them might have some problems... hehe.”

Truly, the silence made Longyao Lingguang’s intention clear.

Longyao Lingheng frowned. “No, it’s too risky.”

However, the Dragon Queen said, “I think it’s feasible. After all, we don’t have to do these things ourselves. If something really goes wrong, someone else will take the blame.”

Longyao Lingheng shook his head. “This matter has to be considered for a long time. We can’t be rash.”

Just then, someone called from the outside, saying that it was the person who arranged accommodation for Hai Kuanglang. After coming to report back to the Dragon Queen, she stopped the previous conversation and sat dignified. “Let him enter.”

When the servant arrived, the Dragon Queen asked, “What did he say about the place you arranged for him?”

The servant lowered his head. “He’s not very satisfied.”

The Dragon Queen sneered, “Good, let him be dissatisfied. Moreover, he still has to hold back his dissatisfaction, otherwise there will be no other place for him to live in the Dragon Palace.”

The servant spoke with some hesitation, “But, Dragon Queen...”

The Dragon Queen swept him a glance.

The servant took a deep breath and continued, “Hai Kuanglang said that if I didn’t give him a more comfortable place, then he would announce to the entire public that he’s the illegitimate son of His Majesty the Dragon Emperor, and he also said...... that the Dragon Queen mistreated him like a bastard!”

When the Dragon Queen heard this, she was immediately furious. She slammed her hand on the table. “He actually dares to babble blatant nonsense. How can he dare to casually say these things?”

The Dragon Queen bullying him was a secondary matter. More importantly, those words involved the Dragon Emperor’s illegitimate son. Even if it was proven to be false in the end, the spread of those rumors would still have a major impact on the Dragon Emperor’s reputation.

If at that time the Dragon Emperor found out that Hai Kuanglang had gone crazy and spouted nonsense because the Dragon Queen didn’t give him good arrangements, the Dragon Emperor would be angry.

“This man had a wild temper and truly deserves his name,” Longyao Lingheng commented.

Longyao Lingguang suddenly stood up and said in a cold voice, “I’m going to meet him and see how he can act so wild inside the Dragon Palace!”

“You don’t have to do that.” Longyao Lingheng acted as if he were already Crown Prince. “My father told me a few days ago that the competition for succession is just around the corner, and visitors from all sides are coming. No accident must happen. Let’s not make trouble now. It’s just a place to live. My Longyao family is not unable to afford it. Let him settle down for a few days first, and we can deal with him after entering the Dragon Tomb Holy Land.”

Longyao Yizhu also said, “Your Highness is right. Even if you hate him, you must still tolerate him on the surface. Who knows what will happen once Hai Kuanglang succumbs to madness? At special times, you still need to be patient first.”

The Dragon Queen took a deep breath and squeezed her fist tightly. “In that case, it’s up to Lingheng to do it. I’m really too lazy to deal with that bastard again!”

“Queen Mother, rest assured.” Longyao Lingheng raised his lips slightly. “I will make it so that he can find nothing wrong. If you want to take it, you must give it first.”

When it was time, he would never show mercy.

The day of entering the Dragon Tomb Holy Land was coming soon. All the guests who should be here have arrived, and the assistants who would be following the descendants of the dragon clan to enter the Dragon Tomb were already in place.

When Lin Xuanzhi reported his name, it caused a lot of gossip and made the results confusing. Originally, Longyao Lingheng was basically sure that he would get the Crown Prince’s position. Even though Hai Kuanglang occupied a position in Fuyao sect, he had no foundation in the dragon clan, and many people didn’t even know there was such a dragon in the clan.

However, when the new Grandmaster Huarong Sword Venerable, who was unparalleled in the limelight, stood so blatantly behind Hai Kuanglang with the Qianyuan Dynasty’s second heir, the results became uncertain. There were still seven days left before the Dragon Tomb opened.

During this time, the descendants of the dragon clan would be winning over people and polishing their claws. Even though the disciples kept saying that this position had nothing to do with themselves, who didn’t want to become heir? What if in the Dragon Tomb, the remnant soul of the old ancestor recognized their genius and found that one of them was the one with strong blood and continuous blessing? They wouldn’t lose anything by taking a chance.

However, if anyone’s name was mentioned the most, it must be Huarong Sword Venerable. Many dragon elders came to find Lin Xuanzhi, trying to beat around the bush or bluntly tell him to withdraw from supporting Hai Kuanglang. They pressed him using a sense of honor and also mentioned the Grandmaster’s Oath. Unfortunately, it failed.

Longyao Wuji came over to scold him, pointing to Lin Xuanzhi’s nose and saying that he was shameless, bullying the small with the big and so on; after a series of bad words, Hai Kuanglang was finally willing to take Zhan Fengting to visit the two people who would help him in the future.

Yan Tianhen was cleaning the table with a handkerchief.

Seeing this, Hai Kuanglang asked, “Shidi, what are you doing?”

Yan Tianhen said with disgust, “Just now, Longyao Wuji sprayed spittle all over the table. It made me sick. He didn’t even clean it up before leaving.”

Hai Kuanglang showed a color of disgust. “Why don’t you have him clean it?”

Yan Tianhen was even more angry. “I told him to wipe it clean, so he ran away. He must have run away because he didn’t want to wipe! Say, isn’t he too much?!”

Hai Kuanglang nodded. “It’s really too much. No respect for the elders.”

Zhan Fengting, “...”

Lin Xuanzhi, “...”

Zhan Fengting apologized, “I’m really sorry that you’ve been disturbed so much these days.”

Yan Tianhen blinked and said, “What is Eldest Martial Brother saying? We volunteered. It’s not like you ordered them to come to our door. Why would you apologize?”

Hai Kuanglang hooked an arm around Zhan Fengting’s waist and said, “I told you not to be so formal, but you still had to come and be annoying. Tsk, a human can’t be too rigid.”

Zhan Fengting pushed Hai Kuanglang. “Little Lang, tell Ah Hen and Huarong about your recent discovery.”

Yan Tianhen asked, “What did you find?”

“Know your enemy and know yourself, and you can win every battle. That’s why these days, Longyao Lingheng has sent people to inquire about the situation of the two of you, and Shixiong and I have secretly explored the identity of the black-clad guy beside Longyao Lingheng who is afraid to show his face. Finally, some progress has been made.”
