What other options did Chen Xuan have? Since the black dragon was interested, what else could he do except nod?
"This story begins a long time ago, when I was just a tiny dragon!
At that time, Emperor Yu was still in power. The wind and rain were still very strong that year. Even with the protection of the Nine Cauldrons, the wind and rain were still very strong.
And I was born at that time.
At that time, each of our characters was cultivated as the national destiny, except Xuanniao, that is, Feng Zhou whom you met.
Dongfu, also known as Quanlong clan, was ordered by Emperor Yu to support the Xia Dynasty, which means he was supporting us.
When he met the black bird, he was very surprised. He wondered why a bird came out of a dragon's nest.
However, he did not care and carefully raised the Xuanniao and us, but he did not list the Xuanniao as the national destiny, because what Emperor Yu wanted was a dragon, not a pitch-black bird.
Later, Emperor Yu passed away, but we still did not grow up. Several of us even died in unclear circumstances, and no bodies were left behind. However, the Xuanniao became stronger and stronger.
Because of this, by the time Kong Jia came to power, Quanlong had already died, and all his skills were learned by Liu Lei, who became Yulong.
He could tell at a glance that some of us were fighting and devouring others, and thus separated us, and at the same time determined who would be the destiny of the nation.
I happened to be assigned to the Wei River, while the Black Bird went to the Shang Land..."
After hearing this, Chen Xuan guessed what was going on.
When he burned Feng Zhou to death, he guessed that it was not clean, but he only thought that it had swallowed up the national destiny of the Zhou Dynasty. He never expected that it had existed in the Xia Dynasty.
The story continues:
“…At this time, the Xia Dynasty’s national destiny had already emerged and began to protect the entire Xia Dynasty.
And we have become abandoned pawns, living under his protection, and living as a candidate for the country's destiny.
No one expected that with so many candidates for national destiny, the Yellow Dragon, known as the strongest, would be swallowed by the Black Bird in one gulp.
The Xia Dynasty was destroyed by the Shang Dynasty, and the Xuanniao became the national destiny of the Shang Dynasty.
Because I was weak and had no sense of existence, I survived by the Wei River.
Until a phoenix found me.
He told me that the Xuanniao was unrighteous and the Shang Dynasty was tyrannical, and they should be attacked.
I ignored him because he was not clean either, and he had the scent of the national destiny that I had shared with him.
I will just hide in the Wei River. He can't do anything to me, and I won't be stupid enough to go out.
So he left, and I thought that was all. But not long after, I heard the news of the fall of the Shang Dynasty.
I don't really want to recall the horror of the Xuanniao, but it was far beyond the reach of the Phoenix.
Until I saw the phoenix again, he was patrolling his own territory and clearing up the national destiny left by the Xia Dynasty.
The moment I saw him, everything became clear to me. I knew that Xuanniao had become Feng Zhou.
After all, we grew up together and knew each other to some extent, but he became the destiny of a country, while I just hid in the Wei River and dared not go out.
It was because of this that I survived, and it was also because of this that I was captured by Duke Wen of Qin and then hidden in the Qin ancestral temple for hundreds of years.
I didn't expect that the Qin State would be so bold. After all, they are the authentic Xuanniao, and they dared to worship a person who has nothing to do with Feng Zhou and even wants to kill him.
I hid there for hundreds of years, accepted hundreds of years of offerings, and I managed to recover some of my abilities.
Then, the Nine Cauldrons were pulled into Xianyang.
I met Feng Zhou and lost my life. So, you avenged me."
Chen Xuan looked at the black dragon in confusion. Feng Zhou was so weak and was far inferior to the black dragon. Why did the black dragon lose his life?
"Are you confused?" Black Dragon looked at Chen Xuan calmly. "It was because of me that Feng Zhou became so weak that you killed him alive."
"So, what do you want to say?!"
Chen Xuan didn't understand what the black dragon meant by talking so much, but he always felt that he had bad intentions.
"Don't you understand what I've said?" Black Dragon seemed a little disappointed, but continued, "Someone is supporting you, just like they supported us back then."
"Support me?"
Chen Xuan was even more confused. What was there to raise him for?
"Yes, they are raising you. The beast armor and the spiritual energy are both raised by others, but it's just that someone else is raising you." The black dragon looked at Chen Xuan like this, "The person who is raising you is probably more terrifying than Emperor Yu."
"Why do you say that?!"
Chen Xuan was a little frightened. Without the dragon form, [Calm as Water] seemed to have automatically lost its effect. Now all the emotions that humans should have were manifesting in Chen Xuan's heart.
"Because, back then, whether it was the Quanlong clan or the Yulong clan, they both mixed a handful of spiritual energy with water and fed it to us, instead of watering us directly with spiritual energy."
Black Dragon looked at Chen Xuan and spoke slowly.
"Feng Zhou was also raised in this way back then. If it weren't for you, this variable, I'm afraid he would have lived forever, and the entire Jiuzhou would have slowly become his [domain]."
"And then, something unexpected happened to me, and so...?!"
Chen Xuan seemed to have thought of something, and his face was full of ugliness.
"Why are you telling me all this? I used your body, and you can still be so kind?"
The Black Dragon laughed again. "As I said, according to common sense, I am already dead. But with your incident, I am you, but you are not me."
"Now I'm pulling you into the depths of my mind, just to unlock the blockade of your memory by the beast armor, which is also the blockade of mine.
