Chapter 122 Long Dream

——Why don’t you speak?

Long Wang opened his eyes.

He lay on his back on the lake, the water gently supporting his body so that he would not fall into the water.

Fish swam past him, creating ripples.

"I just had a dream, a very long dream."

Long Wang was too lazy to get up and simply rolled over on the lake.

——Precognitive dream?

Long Wang said: "That shouldn't be the case. The person in the dream was not me. He was standing on a tall building and turned around to look at me."

——It’s you. It should be you when you were washing your scales.

——It is said that the strongest dragon can even dream of reincarnation tens of millions of years later. I am talking about you.

Long Wang laughed: "You are not omniscient and omnipotent, and you are only two people who can flatter others."

——Slightly, slightly, slightly.

Long Wang turned over again, his golden eyes staring at the sun above his head, which seemed to be brighter than the sun itself:

"When will big brother come back? I've been waiting for so long that the flowers have wilted."

——You have waited for a thousand years, so just a little while longer won’t make a difference. You can take another nap, and when you wake up, he will be back.

Long Wang blew a bubble out of boredom, then suddenly lifted himself up from the water and half sat up:

"I'm going to go see my sister-in-law and my nephew, to prevent those old folks from playing dirty tricks at the last minute."

——Yes, and then you will quarrel with them, and then you will raze Xingyue Peak to the ground for the seventh time.

"I will be more restrained this time and try not to do anything."

——Does not exist.

"Come on, it's not like I can't beat them. This is the last time anyway. When my big brother comes back, they'll be in big trouble."

Long Wang left a nonchalant remark and disappeared from the spot.

The water surface was rippling with waves, and then slowly returned to calm.

…

Xingyue Peak, Changyin Pavilion.

"Sister-in-law, are you busy?"

When Long Wang walked in, Yin Chanli was knitting something by the window.

"It's ready now. You came at the right time."

Yin Chanli cut off the excess threads and showed the finished product to Long Wang.

It was a longevity lock, a silver lock and a red rope.

The lock is of a very common style, but the hanging rope was woven by Yin Chanli herself, expressing her deep love for her future child.

"Sister-in-law is so skillful, and big brother is so blessed. Unfortunately, the dragon race takes a long time to form. My nephew is still a dragon egg. I don't know how long I have to wait if I want to wear sister-in-law's longevity lock."

Long Wang's gaze lingered on the red rope for a moment, and he silently memorized the structure of the knot in his mind.

Although he was also born into the dragon clan, he was different from the old-fashioned, silent and conservative elders in his family. He liked these bright and exciting little things.

"I was impatient, but..." Yin Chanli sighed lightly, with some worry in his eyes: "I have always felt empty in my heart recently, and I always feel that something bad is going to happen."

"What bad thing happened? Did your old friends bully you again?"

Long Wang frowned, and a faint golden light floated around him. However, he remembered the promise he had made not long ago, and barely suppressed the anger in his heart, and comforted Yin Chanli:

"It will be soon. When big brother comes to pick you up in a sedan chair, no one will ever embarrass you again."

——That doesn't exist. It would be good enough if Long Ye Xilin could give her a status after he returns.

Long Wang's face froze, and he said, "If he dares to treat you and my nephew badly, I will beat him up."

[Shut up, or I'll beat you up right now.]

——Slightly, slightly, slightly.

After hearing what Long Wang said, Yin Chanli's expression improved a lot: "It would be great if all dragons could be as good as you."

Long Wang swore solemnly: "Don't worry, sister-in-law. I dare not say anything about other dragons, but I know my elder brother. In order to marry you, he did not hesitate to fight against the elders, enlighten the Golden Cicada Clan, and share his life with you... I believe he will treat you well in the future!"

…

Half a year later, the thousand-year-long scale-washing ceremony came to an end, and tens of thousands of scales reunited in the Dragon Temple after thousands of reincarnations.

The throne of the Dragon God had been vacant for tens of thousands of years, but finally a true dragon qualified to ascend the throne arrived.

However, after his baptism, Long Ye's temperament changed drastically. After saying "The Dragon God is not me, but my younger brother", he disappeared and no longer paid attention to the guests who came to him.

As for his wife, whom he met thousands of years ago and who took great risks to bear a dragon egg for him, although he acknowledged their brief romance, he was unwilling to fulfill the promise they made back then to be together for the rest of their lives.

He has experienced thousands of reincarnations, each of which was a complete life. He has lived countless lives, fallen in love with countless people, and perhaps made countless promises.

Yin Chanli was just the most insignificant one among them.

Afterwards, several elders of the Dragon Clan joined forces to put pressure on Yin Chan. In order to protect the Golden Chan clan, Yin Chan took the initiative to cancel the contract and died.

Long Wang and Long Ye fought a fierce battle. The two real dragons transformed into their original forms and fought each other, shaking the sky and the earth. The sun and the moon changed color. They only stopped after destroying half of the upper sky. In the end, Long Wang was defeated by Long Ye and was imprisoned in the Dragon Locking Array for reflection.

The Dragon Locking Formation cannot trap a real dragon. To Long Wang, every time he went to the Dragon Locking Formation in the past, it was just a formality.

Many times he would enter the dragon array the day before, and the next day he would continue to cause trouble everywhere, and no one dared to say a word.

The dragon clan has very few offspring, and he is the only true dragon in the dragon clan in nearly ten thousand years. So, just like his name, he is pampered and does whatever he wants.

But this time, it's different from the past.

Long Wang lay at the bottom of the Dragon Locking Formation with drooping eyelids, looking up weakly. For the first time, he felt that the steep cliff was so high, so high that it seemed he would never be able to fly out. The layers of overlapping formations were so overwhelming that they were as terrifying as the memory of eternal reincarnation.

——Long Ye was able to defeat you only because he took advantage of Xi Lin.

——You are less than a thousand years old, but you can fight back and forth with a real dragon that has completed the scale cleansing. When you complete the scale cleansing, you will definitely become the strongest dragon in the history of the dragon clan.

"The strongest dragon... so what?"

Long Wang smiled sarcastically:

"Even if I can become the Dragon God, will the dragon on the throne still be me?"

He had seen his eldest brother and sister-in-law being extremely affectionate. Their love transcended race, identity and status, and was as bright as the sun that never sets.

He still remembered what his elder brother said to him before he took him away. He asked him to take good care of his sister-in-law and the dragon egg, and to control his temper. He also said that after the scale cleansing was completed and the body was reshaped, there would be a few extra dragon scales that could not be replaced. At that time, one would be given to his sister-in-law, one to the dragon egg, and one to him.

But in the blink of an eye, his sister-in-law died, the dragon egg was lost by the elders, and as for the scales... he did get them, but he tore them off Long Ye's body with his own hands and swallowed them into his stomach along with the blood.

It was like a big dream. I woke up with tears streaming down my face and didn’t know where I was.

——Of course it is you, you who have eternal memories.

"It's just a beast... with a memory of ten thousand lifetimes."

——Don’t be angry, just be patient, and you can take revenge when you come back from Xilin.

"I can't wait that long."

Long Wang coughed twice, and the corner of his mouth that was bleeding had almost healed in a short while.

This extremely strong healing ability is also one of their characteristics. Nothing in the world can take their lives.

"I'm going to take revenge now. I'm going to wake him up and let him see what a beastly thing he is doing."

——No, you can't beat him.

"How do you know I can't beat him? I was just too angry and didn't perform well. Give me another chance and I will definitely pin him to the ground and beat him up."

Long made a false explanation.

——How could I not know? I am your companion spirit.

Long Wang started yelling: "You also know that you are my companion spirit, and you don't help me..."

——Why don’t I help you? I told you everything I know, doesn’t that count as helping you?

——And didn’t I tell you a long time ago that after Long Ye washed his scales, it was impossible for him to have any feelings for the golden cicada anymore?

——Everyone knows that the dragon race forbids love before the scale cleansing. The Golden Chan secretly seduced Long Ye for the prosperity of the race. Her intention was ill-intentioned. Now she is just getting what she deserves. To say that she deserves what she gets is too much. If she hadn't borrowed Long Ye's life span, she would have died a hundred years ago.

“…”

Long Wang was speechless for a moment, and he only felt the pain in all the wounds on his body that had not yet healed.

The truth is a sharp blade. Every stroke of the blade can cause blood to flow.

"Can you, can you say something nice?"

——The dragon race does not tolerate lies.

"Haha, yes, that's how it is."

Long Wang laughed.

Yes, the dragon clan does not tolerate lies, because there is no need for the strong to lie.

They are born with the cultivation level of the gods of the upper three realms. After being cleansed, they become the gods of a region, able to make all creatures bow to them. They are the strongest race in the upper three realms and the race closest to the throne of gods.

But, but...

But weren't those vows and promises also spoken by Long Ye in the past?

He believed in his elder brother, what was he wrong?

Long Wang murmured, "By the way, my elder brother said that I will be the next Dragon God."

——Yes, everyone thinks so. No one is more suitable to be the Dragon God than you.

——When you return after washing your unicorn, you will be the Dragon God.

"He's wrong, and you're wrong too. I can't be a dragon god because... I don't know how to wash my scales."

Long's words were so powerful that they could cut nails and cut iron:

"I would rather die than wash my scales."
