Yu Changliu’s body trembled as he looked at the golden…pangolin in the bathtub. His gaze was filled with deep shock.

This was due to his shock at the offspring of the Dragon Sovereign, but even more so, it was due to Shen Yuan’s seemingly casual statement.

How could Shen Yuan, a mere mortal, make the decision about the highly revered Dongting Dragon Sovereign?

If it had been before this night, his mockery would surely have followed if Shen Yuan had made such a statement.

However, he had witnessed tonight the dissolution of the Dragon Sovereign’s lingering dream that had persisted for tens of thousands of years and Shen Yuan’s taking away the Dragon Sovereign’s offspring from the dream. These events made Yu Changliu realize that this young man before him was not just an ordinary person.

“He… might truly be able to secure the status of Dragon Sovereign!”

After the Yunmeng Dragon Palace was destroyed ten thousand years ago, the waters of the entire Yunmeng Swampland were encroached upon by other rivers, causing the swampland to continually dry up.

Today, it was less than half of what it had been in its prime.

Even the name Yunmeng Swampland has gradually been forgotten due to the fall of the Yunmeng Dragon Monarch, turning into what is now Lake Dongting.

Because the after-effects of the Yunmeng Dragon Monarch slaying dozens of Water Gods are still present, coupled with the fact that the Aquatic Tribe has been self-focused for the past thousands of years, no Water God dares to take control of Lake Dongting.

This has made Lake Dongting an ownerless land today.

As the only descendant of the Yunmeng Dragon Monarch, the pangolin completely qualifies to inherit the Dragon Sovereign’s position and become the Dragon Sovereign of Dongting.

But of course, being eligible is one thing, whether or not one can actually become the Dongting Dragon Sovereign is another matter.

The pangolin has just been born and is not even able to transform into a Mirage Dragon yet, so naturally, it would be difficult to vie for Dongting Dragon Sovereign’s position.

However, due to the favor of the Yunmeng Dragon Monarch, Shen, Shen Yuan has no objection to pushing him to the position of the Dongting Dragon Sovereign.

Moreover, the pangolin is not without some foundation. When the Dream Fragment dissipated, the Yunmeng Dragon Monarch must have given all his inheritance to the pangolin, including the Divine Arts.

With such a foundation, coupled with the rare True Dragon body in the world, it would not be difficult for the pangolin to quickly grow into a qualified Dragon Sovereign.

Shen Yuan has various considerations, but what Yu Changliu perceives is a completely different picture.

In Yu Changliu’s view, Shen Yuan simply appointed the position of Dongting Dragon Sovereign with a casual statement, which made him feel more awe towards Shen Yuan.

He stepped forward slowly, looking at the turbid blood in the fish tank. The pangolin seemed very uncomfortable with the water quality and kept swimming in the fish tank.

The kinship from the bloodline made him not doubt the authenticity of the pangolin as the offspring of Yunmeng Dragon Monarch, but his brows were deeply knitted due to the turbid water in the tank.

And the culprit, Bai Xue, cleaned his little paws like a nonchalant person, obediently squatting next to Shen Yuan.

“Sir, would you allow me to change the dirty water in the Dragon Subordinates’ aquarium?”

As he spoke, Yu Changliu’s gaze fell on Shen Yuan, who was covered in blood.

“Of course, I will also prepare hot water and clothes for your bathing.”

…

As Shen Yuan came out of the bathroom, he had already cleaned the dirty blood on his body and put on the clothes that Yu Changliu had prepared for him earlier.

Yu Changliu had already changed the water for the pangolin, now carefully holding the fish tank in both hands.

Seeing Shen Yuan coming out of the bathroom, Yu Changliu’s eyes lightened up instantly.

The handsome young man in front of him, dressed in a silk white long shirt of antique style, was decorated with a delicate golden cloud pattern, and his color was elegant but luxurious.

Combined with the ethereal aura brought by the False Primordial Spirit Refinement, he seemed like a banished immortal who might take off with the wind at any time.

“As expected, this gentleman is no ordinary person!”

Yu Changliu exclaimed in admiration:

“Yunmeng Village holds an annual Dragon Sovereign Festival, featuring a drama that has been passed down for thousands of years called ‘Banished Immortal’s Discourse’. It tells the story of a banished immortal’s deep conversation within the dream with the Dragon Sovereign in the Yunmeng Swampland.

This costume was personally tailored by me for the character of the banished immortal in the drama a month ago. Since the Dragon Sovereign Festival has not yet begun, no one has worn it.”

“I originally just thought that since we didn’t have any extra clothes at home, the gentleman could temporarily wear this costume while others go out to buy more.

However, with you wearing this costume, it’s as if you’re a real immortal who has walked out from ‘Banished Immortal’s Discourse’…”

As he got to this point, Yu Changliu seemed to realize something, his pupils trembling abruptly.

To outsiders, that drama, which has been passed down for thousands of years, seemed to be a legend, but for the Yu family, who possess half-dragon blood, it is genuine history.

The dream conversations between the mythical figure of the banished immortal and the Dragon Sovereign in history are too similar to the events of today.

So much so that a bold idea has risen in Yu Changliu’s mind.

“Could he be the banished immortal who discussed Tao with Dragon Sovereign a thousand years ago?”

Naturally, Shen Yuan has no knowledge of what’s going on within Yu Changliu’s mind.

Just now, while he was washing, Shen Yuan also intentionally investigated his physical condition.

He is only a step away from advancing from the peak stage of Essence Refining. His state has reached an unprecedented peak, and the information of the Rain Invocation Divine Capacity Seed is also being digested non-stop.

Compared to the Earthly Destroyer Divine Capacity Seed, the difficulty of refining the Heavenly General Divine Capacity Seed far surpasses ordinary difficulty. Even the initial stage of refinement requires a considerable amount of energy.

However, what made Shen Yuan feel fortunate was that perhaps due to the enlightenment of the Yunmeng Dragon Monarch’s divine skills, Shen Yuan didn’t feel any hurdles in the initial refining of the Rain Invocation Divine Capacity Seed.

In not too long, Shen Yuan would be able to have a glimpse of the power of the Heavenly General Great Divine Power.

Thinking about it, even with Shen Yuan’s current state of mind, there is inevitably some waves.

Looking around the room, Shen Yuan didn’t see Bai Xue or the Maine Coon that he brought. He hadn’t seen them since he came back from the Dragon Sovereign’s dream.

Shen Yuan didn’t worry at the time, but now that he has some free time, he then asked Yu Changliu:

“Have you seen the two cats I brought with me?”

Just when the modest Yu Changliu was about to answer, a series of “meow” sounded from outside the house.

The place where Yu Changliu lived was a small separate courtyard built inside the Dragon Sovereign Temple. Shen Yuan stepped out of the room and saw Bai Xue and the Maine Coon in the courtyard.

He saw Bai Xue sitting on top of the Maine Coon’s head, her little head high up in a very proud posture.

Bai Xue’s gaze was directly locked on the pangolin in the bathtub, as if, by patting the Maine Coon under her, she was displaying her power to the pangolin.

The pangolin, which originally thought that it didn’t need to fear Bai Xue anymore as it had Yu Changliu’s protection, instantly panicked.

To it, the big cat below Bai Xue was undoubtedly a horrifyingly huge creature like none it had ever seen before.

If such a cat, roughly the size of a palm, can suppress the pangolin, what about that beast of a Maine Coon?

The pangolin was scared and immediately curled up in the corner of the fish tank, shaking.

Seeing the future Dragon Sovereign be terrified to this extent by a Qi Transformation Stage mythical cat, Shen Yuan couldn’t help but twitch the corner of his mouth and felt that his decision seemed a bit rash.

The Maine Coon knew about what happened, including the part where the young Bai Xue beat up the dragon offspring, from the moment they arrived home. It saw it just as children’s play and naturally didn’t want to get involved.

The Maine Coon walked over to Shen Yuan with a solemn expression on its face and whispered:

“Sir, I felt the presence of the monster tribe outside Yunmeng Village.”
