The Chaos Dragon Prince

Cain was once again aware of Huang Zilong and Linlong's intentions. But this time, a strange thought streaked in his mind.

Suppose what Huang Linlong is saying is true.

If so, then how come he ended up in this body if the previous guy fell into a simple coma?

Cain had always assumed the previous guy died since he still retained his own Soul's core and memories. But if it was just a coma, how did he so easily possess this body with zero obstruction?

It was all questions for the future, but Cain would be sure to have them in mind going forward.

Outwardly, Cain's expression didn't even twitch as he calmly said, "I am also fully aware of Xun and Dai's attitude. And naturally, I have guards up against both of them. But, at the same time, they have both been very frank to me, almost to perfect degrees. I can't deny the efforts they're putting in. Just like the efforts you're putting in."

Neither Huang Zilong nor Linlong particularly liked that answer. In their eyes, there was one royal descendant that was particularly troublesome than the rest.

Of course, it had to be the calm and calculating Huang Xun.

Huang Jielong was powerful, Dulong and Jaolong were ruthless, and Dai had excellent social etiquette to keep up a good public image.

But none of them could compare to Huang Xun's unpredictable mind.

Even now, Huang Zilong and Linlong can instantly recall memories of Huang Xun being a thorn in their sides. She was a pain even at times when they were in a higher position than her.

What was the most grueling was the fact that Huang Xun carried the same indomitable spirit as the rest of them.

Scheming against her, suppressing her, stealing from her only ignited that indomitable Dragon Will slumbering inside them all.

Thus Huang Zilong and Linlong had in mind to persuasively speak out against Xun.

Huang Linlong was only moments away from her opening her mouth again when she suddenly heard Zilong's voice in her mind.

'No. It's better to take a step back and see how this situation develops. Even messing with Xun now can lead to unfavorable consequences in the future. She can take this round for now.'

His words made reasonable sense, so Huang Linlong held her tongue. Though her mind couldn't help but spawn numerous ideas for the future.

On the outside, that short exchange was but a split moment.

Neither Huang Zilong nor Linlong even made a change in their facial expression.

But, Cain did catch noticeable glint lighting in their eyes at the mention of Huang Xun specifically. It seemed to him like she could trigger unfavorable emotions or at least memories for them within moments.

Cain was inwardly curious.

The balance of power wasn't wholly off-shift. It's more than evident to Cain that Huang Zilong and Linlong suffered at Xun's hands but were unwilling to speak up for whatever reasons they had.

With this short little conversation out of the way, Cain decided it was time to leave.

He stood up and tossed out his contact ring while saying to them, "Well then. I think it's time for me to leave. Here's my ring if I ever want to contact either of you."

Cain was decisive, promptly turning to leave without a second look back.

But before he could take even a step, Huang Zilong hurriedly spoke up.

"Oh, leaving already? Perhaps you want to stay and chat with us about cultivation? We have considerable attainment in the Heaven and Earth Path."

"Mn. Not only that, I practice with Divine Sword Laws. I see that you sometimes use a golden spiral sword, right? I believe we can exchange pointers to further your way of the sword." Huang Linlong perfectly added on.

Their offers didn't go on deaf ears.

Cain paused, feeling a small amount of intrigue, mainly into Huang Linlong's suggestion.

For the longest, he's never been able to make any significant process with Sword Laws. He only managed to master using the golden spiral sword's weapon energy to draw forth its full power.

But even then, his potential is severely limited with the Sword Path.

Unless he can actually comprehend Sword Laws and for a Sword Law Sphere in his dantian, the strength he can gain from Spiritual Weapons would practically be minuscule.

After all, Cain's prowess can breach through to the realm of Divine Ascensions.

All of his skills needed to be absolute top-tier if he ever wanted a considerable change to his combat prowess.

And above all, Cain was quite fond of handling the sword.

It was fast, sharp, and easy for him to dominate his opponent. Comprehending Sword Laws would be the perfect icing on his cake.

Still, Cain wasn't going to let Huang Zilong or Linglong gather even the slightest momentum. The trouble they can bring is still very real.

Cain merely paused for a few moments before continuing to walk.

He told the duo, "Perhaps another time. There are other things that I do need to complete today. See you later."

Without any more interruption, Cain promptly left the imperial chamber.

Alone with each other, Huang Zilong and Linlong's expressions shifted back to their usual calm indifference.

A multitude of thoughts swirled within their minds.

Some good, others a bit concerning.

But overall, they had a general feeling that the meeting went over well enough. At the very least, there was another chance for a future one, given Cain's last response.

Huang Linlong slowly spoke after a few moments of silence. "So? You're thoughts on him? Personally, I believe he's of the same wavelength of Xun's mind. With the small glances he gave, I could tell nothing was escaping his eyes. Thankfully, he seemed to be more of an opportunist than wildly cruel or overly ambitious."

"Mn. He can certainly leave a good first impression." Huang Zilong nodded. "But I don't doubt getting on his bad side can lead to disastrous results. The stronger he gets, the more emphasis the Supreme Ancestors will place on him. Hell, I don't doubt father and mother will put more value on Cain. I know for sure your parents are already attaching far higher value to him."

That response made Huang Linlong's face become a bit downcasted. Not out of feelings but more of practical emotions.

She asked, "By now, his and Kali's combat prowess can suppress us. And when they reach the Divine Origin realm, they will cast us far aside. By then, Supreme Ancestors, my parents, the Dragon Emperor, and the Empress will fall under Cain and Kali's whims. They could probably completely ruin our lives in that situation."

"And that's why we must tread very carefully with Cain and Kali. We'll have to put in all of our thoughts if we want to see some kind of road in the future." Huang Zilong solemnly said.

Huang Linlong's worries only increased as she continued to think more and more about Kali.

Her tone even dipped into grave territory when saying, "Speaking of Kali, she could be even worse than Jaolong and Dulong in some aspect of ruthlessness. I don't doubt our impressions on her are at rock bottom. Plus, she and Cain have a tightly close-knit bond. Probably even stronger than Dai and Xun's. If we try to interfere there, I'm afraid we'll end up on a terrible end before even knowing it."

A cold chill couldn't help but creep through both Huang Zilong and Linlong's spines. Their usual brand of scheming was simply ineffective against supreme prowess and genuine feelings.

They had no way to suppress the Divine Mortals. Plus, the kinship bonds between them are thicker than blood.

Huang Zilong and Linlong also couldn't help but feel amazement about it.

After all, it is far too common within powerful Holy Forces, whether it is a Sect or Martial Family, that the general feeling of kinship is fragile.

This thin kinship commonly happens because of the foundational beliefs and values of their God Galaxies society.

The foundational belief of nearly, if not all, God Galaxies inhabits is to survive.

Whether it is surviving other powerful races' invasions or the wrath from the Heavens, nobody wants to die.

Martial cultivators especially have a fervent desire to achieve the greatest lifespan possibility so as they can pursue their life-long goals.

But just the desire to survive is nowhere near enough to actually be able to survive.

In a universe where natural disasters can destroy massive primary planets, unexplained mythological beings roam at random places, alien races invade for territorial conquest or internal fighting among each other, the only way to resist anything is through strength!

With higher cultivation, could one obtain the strength to survive, better their personality, broaden their minds, pursue their life-long dream, or even just live a simple, quiet life.

Without strength, it is impossible to even properly survive in such a cruel world.

Thus, the value of strength is engraved to the core of the God Galaxies.

Their cycle of life simply doesn't permit the weak to thrive unless they are born under special circumstances.

This also means it is merely natural to disdain the weak.

The weak are the chains holding back society's survival. God Galaxies' inhabits can't find any value in people like them.

Cain and Kali's cruel treatment by their direct family is only the byproduct of a society that survived upon the foundation of strength for millions of years.

Forming authentic and genuine relationships is much more complicated when the stipulations of strength and value are thrown into equations.

Too many times did Huang Zilong and Linlong see betrayals all because one needs strength or can't find any value in their partners anymore.

However, it wasn't as if such genuine relationships were impossible to exist.

In fact, it can happen as often as surface-level relationships.

And if it can occur, the bonds will be astonishingly profound.

Surviving through a life-or-death crisis, choosing choices that are only meant to help the other person, forgoing all values commonly known for the sole purpose of helping one's partner serves to forge bonds that are deeply engraved into one's Soul.

Cain and Kali are also prime examples of this.

They had each other to survive their cruel times when they were cultivations wastes. Only confining with each other since practically birth, their relationship is impossible to be broken up.

Huang Dai and Xun appear similar on the surface.

But Huang Zilong and Linlong know they can't possibly compare to being practically inseparable from each other like Cain and Kali.

The value of a relationship can be a surprisingly terrifying force, especially if it's between equally powerful people.

When considering all of this, Huang Zilong and Linlong gave another long sigh.

Their expressions gradually returned to normal as Huang Zilong said, "This is why we need to succeed in the sea realm. With some measure of strength to protect ourselves, we should be able to shelter from the inevitable wither and storms. And perhaps we can even find an opportunity with that trio during that time."
