In the Dragon Race

“So, he still won’t come back?” The dragon king asked Long Jinghuan sullenly.

Long Jinghua nodded and said, “No.”

“After all these years, he still hates me!” The dragon king sighed and said helplessly.

Long Jinghua frowned and said, “Some day, he will think it through.”

The dragon king shook his head and smiled wryly, “Your elder brother is stubborn. It’s hard for him to think it through himself. Maybe he will never forgive me for all his life.”

Long Jinghua lowered his head, with a wisp of helplessness flashing across his eyes.

“Did he really slaughter the whole race of the Flaming Divine Birds?” Asked the dragon king.

Long Zhanghua nodded and said, “Yeah.”

The dragon eking narrowed his eyes, “that race also has a few top masters! Are they all dead?”

“All dead. I saw the bodies.” Long Huanghua replied.

The dragon king sighed lightly, “his strength has improved again, but has caused bigger trouble, I’m afraid the phoenix race wouldn’t let go of him so easily.”

Long Jinghua said, “These years, he has become more and more unscrupulous.”

“He has resentment in the heart, and his perverseness is excusable.” The dragon king said disapprovingly.

long Jinghua bowed his head, looking a bit complicated in the eyes. Since he was little, people had compared him with his elder brother. At first, because of his prominent status in the dragon race, everyone placed great hopes on him, while his elder brother got excluded everywhere. He got his father’s love, and his elder brother became the neglected one.

But after Boss Long left the dragon race, he gradually cut a figure, and since his blood dragon identity got exposed, everything had changed. Compared with the brave and powerful Boss Long, he was more like a little flower in the greenhouse. And his father was very inclusive for what Boss Long had done because he felt guilty for him. Every time, he would secretly cleaned the mess for him.

“Did you tell him about dragon lady thing?” Asked the dragon king.

Long Zhanghua nodded and said, “Yes, but he refused.”

“Did he say anything?” The dragon king made a sigh and asked.

Long Jinghua picked his eyebrow, and gave the dragon king an uneasy look, opened his mouth wanting to say something.

The dragon king smiled helplessly and said, “Say it, don’t worry about me.”

Long Jinghua took a careful looked at him and then said, “He said, aren’t you afraid he might give birth to a few red dragons to lose your face?”

The dragon king’s dignified face appeared cracks, it took him quite some time to resume his usual expression, “So, he still hates me.”

Long Jinghua looked at the expression of the dragon king, holding some kind of complicated feeling.

“Is he still alone?” Asked the dragon king.

Long Jinghua shook his head, “No, he got someone from the phoenix race by his side.”

The dragon king was astonished, “Someone from the phoenix race? How is it even possible?”

Their dragon race and the phoenix race had been hostile for a long time, both sides guarded against each other, but the number of the phoenix race was much less than the dragon race, if someone their class fell into Boss Long’s hands, there was no reason they still stayed so quiet.

“That one from the phoenix race is kind of special. He should have just ascended from the lower world, and hasn’t changed his star source force into divine source force.” Said Long Jinghua.

“Someone ascended from the lower world? No way. Because it’s hard for them to have offspring, so they built quite a few rainbow bridges to receive those of the phoenix race. How is it possible someone was still left down there?” the dragon king was wondering.

“That’s a black phoenix.” Long Jinghua said gingerly. Black is considered unlucky in the phoenix race. The little phoenix should have been left in the lower realm on purpose.

The dragon king took a deep breath, closed his eyes deeply and said, “Like attracts like. So he sees himself on the other side?”

Long Jinghua looked at the dragon king’s disappointed appearance, feeling kind of awful.

…

“Zhenbaozhai? Shall we eat here? Is the food good here? I don’t see many guests.” Cang Qian flashed his eyes.

Boss Long looked at Cang Qian with disdain and said, “You think this is your lower realm? The fewer customers there are, the more upscale the restaurant is, because it only serves distinguished guests, such as me.”

Cang Qian, “…”

“So that’s why!” Cang Qian nodded.

“Come on. If I don’t take you with me, you’ll be thrown out.”

Cang Qian hurriedly complimented him, “Thank you then.”

“As long as you knew.” Boss Long held his head high and said proudly.

Cang Qian, “…”

“Bring us a table of wine and food of the highest standard.” Boss Long threw a stone to the boss. The boss’s face turned pale, and he immediately replied respectfully and stepped out.

“What did you give the boss? His face changed. I’ll look for one some other day.” Cang Qian asked with his eyes full of curiosity.

“A divine core, you also have one in your head, but yours can’t even exchange for the lowest dishes here.” Boss Long wore a fake smile.

Cang Qian, “…”

…

“Have you heard about the Flaming Divine Birds’ thing?”

“Yes, it is said that it was done by the big prince of the dragon race. Such a tragedy. There is not a single living one left.”

“The Flame Divine Birds are the vassals of the phoenix race. They will not give up easily.”

“What can they do? The big prince has reached the middle stage of divine class, and he is a mutated divine beast, with astonishing fighting capacity. Ordinary phoenix race is not his match at all. Maybe their leader has a chance. But, you know what kind of person the big prince is, despicable, shameless, nasty, as wicked as possible. If he is the other side’s rival, he’d keep fighting, but, if not, he’s instantly flee, totally not care about the dragon race’s dignity. If he wants, even the leader of the phoenix race could do nothing to him.”

“This big prince seems to hold deep prejudice against the phoenix race.”

“Of course. The big prince was very unlucky. After he was thrown out of his race, the phoenix race has ever sent people trying to kill him for a lot of times. Of course he holds the grudge.”

“But I heard his relationship with the dragon race is also not good.”

“Of course. He has been teased and satire in the dragon race by everyone. How could he hold a good relationship with them?”

“Yes! How could the dragon king have taken his outstanding son as a red dragon?”

“What can he do? Blood dragon and red dragon are exactly the same. Only when they grow big enough, one could tell the difference through their fighting capacity.”

“It is said that the dragon race has sent people to mend fences with the big prince several times, but those people were all beaten and disabled by him.”

“It is said that the prince suffered a lot in the dragon race when he was a child. Now that he lives such a carefree life, of course he wouldn’t go back.”

…

Cang Qian looked at Boss Long and asked curiously, “Hey, are they talking about you?”

Boss Long looked at Cang Qian and said, “If you are still so nosy, I’ll pull out your tongue.”

Cang Qian, “…”
