Simulating the primordial era? That's way too extreme.

Chapter 64 The Dragon Clan Will Return Like Lightning!

[In the 368th year of the Demon Calendar, the 10th cycle and the 11th period, all the leaders of the anti-feudal forces were ordered to ascend to heaven, voluntarily exchanging real power for sinecure positions. Among all the forces in the prehistoric world, only your Shouyang Mountain lineage remains.]

[Amidst all this attention, you act as if nothing has happened, continuing to single-mindedly expand your power.]

[In this next era, the entire Eastern Wilderness will belong to you. Hundreds of millions of demons, regardless of strength, will submit to the rule of Shouyang Mountain. In the blink of an eye, your sphere of influence has already surpassed that of the former overlord of the primordial world, the Ancestral Dragon. Even at the height of the Ancestral Dragon's power, he did not possess such a territory.]

Furthermore, given the large number of dragons and aquatic creatures under your command, many people unconsciously regard you as a second Ancestral Dragon...

"My great dragon race has been revived!"

[Some of the dragons and other creatures expressed this sentiment, and tears of emotion welled up in their eyes. They were moved by the return of their former dominance.]

Since the establishment of the Heavenly Court, the Dragon Clan's power has been greatly weakened. They lost all their territory in the four wastelands and could only eke out a living in the four seas, subject to the tyrannical power of the Heavenly Emperor.

Following the Heavenly Emperor's reversal of the previous order of dragon hierarchy, the old order of dragons has completely collapsed. Even true dragons have gone into seclusion, so it can be said that the concept of "dragons" has essentially died out...

[But the remnants of the dragon clan reconsidered: Wasn't Jin Bing also of dragon lineage? Even if the old dragon clan was extinct, wasn't the Shouyang Mountain force, represented by Jin Bing and Huang Long, still under the rule of the dragon clan?!]

[Jin Bing is the Great Chieftain of the Human Race, therefore the Dragon Race is superior to the Human Race. Jin Bing occupied the Eastern Wilderness, therefore the Dragon Race occupied the Eastern Wilderness... Rounding it up further, wouldn't that mean the Dragon Race has been revived?!]

After convincing themselves, the dragons were moved to tears, exclaiming, "The dragon race has become great again!" and "Our great dragon race has been revived!"

[Based on their self-justifying logic, many people actually believed it, and they kept spreading it around every day.]

"The dragons will return like lightning!"

"Let's recreate the glory of our Great Dragon!"

Humans: ?

"What are they yelling about?"

The young Xuandu, looking bewildered, pulled over a turtle demon and pointed at the group of excited, shouting dragons, asking them a question.

"Just hypnotize yourself!"

The turtle demon scoffed:

"Shouyang Mountain doesn't discriminate based on race. Chief Jin has always firmly taught us demons to be equal, to distinguish people by class, not by race. He never brings up his own dragon origins, yet these old dragons are using that to clamor for the revival of the dragon race..."

"Restore the glorious era of the Dragon Clan... Screw the glorious era of the Dragon Clan!"

The turtle demon pointed to his white beard and said angrily:

"I've lived from the primordial era to the present. Do you think I don't know whether the Dragon Clan has had a golden age or not?"

"The so-called golden age of the dragon race was always just a golden age for the true dragons. In ancient times, the ancestral dragon and his sons and grandsons occupied three parts of the prehistoric world. As overlords, they could do whatever they wanted. All the beauties and treasures in the world belonged to them, while the collateral dragon races and aquatic races were just dragon slaves! Their lives and deaths were not in their own hands."

"Fortunately, when the Heavenly Emperor established the cauldron, he dealt a heavy blow to these guys, and all the demons under heaven were freed from their enslavement. However, the Heavenly Emperor did not achieve complete success and could only compromise with the true dragons."

"Chief Jin has now completely annihilated the Dragon Clan and rescued all demons from their suffering, a feat unprecedented in history... Yet these guys actually want to twist the Chief Jin's great victory of equality among all races into a laughable revival of the Dragon Clan's golden age. It's utterly absurd!"

Xuan Du listened with a mixture of understanding and confusion, but then became extremely curious:

"The true dragon enslaves the collateral branches and aquatic creatures... So, according to that logic, these dragons were also enslaved in the past? Then why are they shouting about the revival of the dragon race?!"

"Who knows?"

The turtle demon scoffed.

"Perhaps it's to satisfy his vague notion of dragon orthodoxy...or maybe he wants to be the supreme demon, since even though collateral dragons are enslaved by true dragons, they can still enslave ordinary aquatic creatures...they just deserve to be slaughtered!"

At this moment, a white dragon that had joined the commotion also heard Xuandu and the old tortoise's conversation. Enraged, it stepped forward, pointed at the old tortoise, and began to curse:

"You old man, how dare you slander the dragon race like this! I bet you've crossed blood with a Qilin, haven't you? You traitor to the dragons!"

"Dragon traitor?"

The old tortoise looked at the white dragon with amusement:

"If you're not blind, you can see that I'm a pure-blooded tortoise, and have absolutely no relation to the dragon race. But you... you're neither dragon nor snake, what kind of bastard are you? And you're advocating for the dragon race, proud of your dragon blood? Back in the day, you were nothing more than a dragon's chamber pot!"

"you!!!"

They couldn't agree on anything, and soon started fighting. They were then both taken away by human law enforcement officers patrolling nearby to be imprisoned...

"Nonsense..."

Xuan Du shook his head, gave the enforcers a special instruction to be more diligent in their arrests recently, and then went to the chief's house alone...

"The Great Chief?"

Xuan Du knocked on the door cautiously and entered.

Jin Bing was sitting at his desk, reviewing documents sent from various places. His earnest attitude impressed Xuandu.

Other chieftains, as long as they have some power, will invariably plunder rare and precious materials in order to improve their own cultivation. Therefore, the human race's reporting work has basically never failed.

However, their own chieftain is completely different. Despite possessing vast lands and populations in the Eastern Wilderness and the Eastern Sea, with power even greater than that of the Ancestral Dragon, he never seeks personal gain and devotes himself entirely to the hundreds of millions of people. To this day, his cultivation level remains that of a True Immortal...

How could one not be moved by such a pure and virtuous person?

Xuan Du sighed inwardly:

Fortunately, the chieftain had some cultivation, otherwise he would have been exhausted to death!

"Xuan Du, you've arrived?"

Kim Byung put down the document and asked him earnestly:

"Are you aware of what those old-timers from the East China Sea have been up to lately?"

"Chief, I just encountered it..."

"So? Do you think there's a big problem?"

Jin Bing asked with a smile.

Xuan Du thought for a moment and replied:

"It may seem insignificant on the surface, but the consequences could be disastrous!"

Jin Bing's eyes revealed satisfaction:

Tell me about it.

Xuandu said solemnly:

"This may seem like a small matter, but it actually shows that the old culture and old ideas of the dragon race have not been completely eradicated and there is still a possibility of them being revived."

"Moreover, all the aquatic creatures that have been tainted with dragon blood regard it as an honor and look down on other races. If they are further influenced by old ideas, they may actually be inclined to restore the orthodoxy of the dragon race and undermine your grand plan for equality..."

Xuan Du's words were reasonable, well-founded, and clearly organized, and he quickly and concisely analyzed the deeper dangers of the incident.

Kim Byung smiled:

"Alright, I'll leave this to you. Remember not to abuse your power. They haven't openly rebelled, so we can't forcefully suppress them..."

Xuan Du was stunned for a moment, then stood up straight and bowed excitedly:

"Yes, sir! Mission accomplished!"

"Okay, go ahead."

……

After Xuandu left, Jin Bing picked up a document from the Heavenly Court, looked at the Heavenly Emperor's seal on it, and couldn't help but sigh:

"It seems I still can't avoid going to the Heavenly Court after all..."

The document was issued by the Heavenly Emperor and written by the Demon Master himself, so its status was exceptionally high.

The gist of the matter was that he was to be summoned to the Heavenly Court, because the Heavenly Emperor had just been blessed with ten sons and, to celebrate having sons, had invited many famous people to a banquet in Heaven.

As the top leader of the Eastern Wilderness and the Eastern Sea, and given his special status as a member of the Taiqing Sect, Jin Bing was naturally within the scope of the invitation.

To go or not to go?

There was no choice at all. The Heavenly Emperor had invited him, and as long as he hadn't rebelled, he had no choice but to go, even if knives rained down from the sky...

"But that's strange."

Jin Bing frowned and pondered:

"The various anti-confidence forces were disbanded one after another, but the Heavenly Emperor deliberately didn't allow me to disband them... Now he's asking me to go to Heaven to congratulate his son..."

What exactly does the Heavenly Emperor want to do?
