Chapter 529 The Dragon Clan is Angered
The Black Lord also realized that the Chief had stepped in to support Xuan Cang and incidentally drive away the Jiao Lord's lineage.
Now it all depends on the attitude of the Dragon Lord.
Of course, in terms of cooperation time, the Black Lord's cooperation time with the Flood Dragon Lord was longer. However, over the years, the Flood Dragon Lord and his daughter had treated the good men of their Black Dragon Clan like dogs. In the end, the Flood Dragon Lord chose the Northern King Clan, with whom he had a long-standing estrangement.
To say that the Black Lord was unaware of the Northern King's wolfish ambitions and his schemes against Xuan Cang would be a complete joke.
However, he understood that neither the Northern King nor his son were particularly capable and could cause any trouble. In addition, they had some value to him, so he decided not to deal with them.
However, not taking any action doesn't mean that the Black Lord can tolerate the father and son, one coveting his position and the other coveting his son's position.
The Black Lord looked at the Dragon Lord: "Brother, look at this matter... It's not that I don't support Rong'er, whom we've watched grow up, but Miss Rui is also the daughter of the Chief, so it wouldn't be good to let the Chief lose face, would it? Speaking of which, it would be a good story if Rong'er and Miss Rui married into the Black Dragon Clan together. Anyway, Rong'er and A Chong's marriage was already arranged."
The Flood Dragon Lord clenched his fists but did not speak. As for the Flood Dragon Queen, if Xuan Cang had not cleared his name and appeared in full force, capable of defeating Xuan Chong, she might still have taken a liking to him.
But with the Xuancang Pearl and Jade in front of us, what is Xuanchong?
"Father, you said I would definitely marry the next patriarch of the Black Dragon Clan!" Jiao Rong shook Jiao Zhu's shoulder.
Upon hearing this, a cold glint flashed in Kuro's eyes.
Because we needed to form an alliance with the Dragon Lord, wasn't that the situation back then?
Whoever can please Jiao Rong and marry her will become the next clan leader.
Even though Xuancang was his own son, he never thought of leaving Xuancang any other way out, especially after seeing that Xuancang was stubborn and unyielding. He allowed others to slander Xuancang and eventually expelled him from the clan.
But just because he can do these things doesn't mean he's willing to let Jiao Rong tell him.
The Black Dragon Clan looked at the little girl he had always doted on: "Rong'er, you can't say things like that. The succession of the next patriarch of our Black Dragon Clan depends on strength."
You can seek alliances through marriage, but how can you possibly gain strength from them?
The Black Dragon Clan ultimately reveres the strong.
Upon hearing this, the Dragon Lord's expression changed. He realized that the tacit understanding between him and the Black Lord had been shattered by the appearance of the Chief and his more talented disciple.
However, given his actions over the years—ensuring his daughter didn't frame other people's children and not providing substantial assistance to the Black Lord even when allied—it's not necessarily true that he'd want to see the Black Lord choose to ally with the Lord.
"Good! Brother Mang, you certainly have guts! I just don't know if your son and the leader will be as you wish. As for Rong'er and Xuan Chong's marriage... how can a perpetual second-place finisher be worthy of my Jiaolong clan's most noble princess?!"
The dragon lord was also furious and simply tore off the mask of civility.
Hearing this, the Black Lord found it laughable. Over the years, the Black Dragon Clan had suffered countless injustices because of his daughter, and Xuan Chong had treated Jiao Rong like a grandson. Now, he said she was not good enough for him?
The Black Lord glanced at Xuan Chong, whose expression had darkened at the Dragon Lord's words, and said, "Ah Chong, you and the Dragon Princess are not yet bound by marriage..."
Xuan Chong clenched his fists, glanced at Jiao Rong, stood up, and suddenly knelt before Jiao Zhu and Hei Zhu.
The Dragon Lord was startled by his kneeling, while the Dragon Face was somewhat impatient: "What are you doing?"
Xuan Chong ignored her and spoke directly: "Please forgive me, two clan leaders, and hold a Daoist couple ceremony for Rong'er and me! Rong'er is already carrying my child!"
"..."
The scene was very quiet for a while.
The Dragon Lord's mind was in turmoil, the Dragon Glory was completely blank, and the Chief was so gloating that he almost pulled out some melon seeds from his Qiankun bag to watch the show.
The Black Lord, however, had anticipated this, yet he feigned a troubled expression, looking at the Flood Dragon Lord: "Brother Flood Dragon, what do you think of this..."
After realizing what had happened, the Dragon Lord's face turned ashen. If this were known privately, it would be one thing; in the cultivation world, there are countless cases of fathers leaving their sons behind.
However, if we were to discuss this in front of the three masters of the Ancestral Dragon, it would be one thing if Xuan Chong were truly so incompetent as to be completely unworthy of Jiao Rong. But Xuan Chong was also considered a promising young talent, and by common sense, he could be considered a barely acceptable match for Jiao Rong.
If he doesn't agree to Xuan Chong's request, then his daughter will never find a better Daoist partner than Xuan Chong; if he does agree...
It's like forcing him to choose between two piles of excrement that don't smell bad, and then making him hold his nose and eat one of them.
He glanced sideways at the smiling Kuro, and asked in a gloomy tone, "You know?"
Hei Zhu laughed and said, "Brother Jiao, I don't like hearing that. How would I know such a thing?"
He could only guess that Xuan Chong, with his underhanded methods, had left himself a backup plan. If the leader hadn't appeared, the Black Master was confident he could handle that, but now…
He'd love to shove this pile of shit into the dragon master's mouth; how could he possibly solve it for him?
Over the years, Jiao Rong and Jiao Zhu have done a lot of trouble for him, so the Black Lord naturally wants to get his revenge.
After all, he's the kind of person who would scheme against even his own son, let alone a business partner.
The Dragon Lord gritted his teeth, left with the words "Let's talk another day," and departed with Jiao Rong and the people of the Dragon Clan.
The Black Master reminded him, "Ah Chong, why don't you take your father to your in-laws to discuss the marriage?"
Xuan Chong got up from the ground and quickly replied, "Yes."
The Northern King followed.
They witnessed the Black Lord's reactions throughout the entire process, and the Black Lord had even anticipated Xuan Chong's methods.
After this experience, the father and son realized that the clan leader was not someone they could challenge at their level.
In that case, they should hold on even tighter to what they can hold onto.
After seeing these people off, Hei Zhu glanced at Xuan Cang and thought to himself that this kid was really lucky.
"A Cang, bring your wife and A Bao with you."
This tone was completely different from when he talked about the pistil earlier.
Xuan Cang felt disgusted, but since he had to get past this hurdle to be accepted into the ancestral clan, he could only nod.
When he arrived at the main hall with Ci Rui and A Bao, Hei Zhu still praised Ci Rui a few times out of respect for the leader, but most of his attention was focused on A Bao.
After confirming that A Bao's bloodline had not been diminished by his mother being only an earth dragon, Hei Zhu laughed heartily: "Not bad, not bad, this child has quite the potential in the future!"
Xuan Cang remained expressionless, while the leader beckoned to the pistil.
Before arriving, the pistil had been instructed by Xuan Cang and stepped forward to pay her respects to the leader.
Compared to his meticulous attention to every detail in his apology to Jiao Rong, the leader adopted a completely different attitude towards Ci Rui, saying, "Look at you, child, why are you so formal?"
She pulled the pistil closer to herself, as if she and the pistil truly had a deep affection for each other over the years, and said with a smile, "You didn't even tell your master you were back? You came to see your little junior brother."
Ning Wengui nodded towards the pistil: "Senior sister, where is Zhaozhao?"
