Unfathomable Senior

Chapter 477

‘So how many potential hidden holy swords have you found.’

‘Currently, there are … 0 … matches for the specified criteria, do you wish to change the criteria?’

‘No we tried that already… just keep on searching.’

‘Affermitife’

Bob replied while Zhang Dong walked through the lush corridors of the castle that the Azure Dragon lived in. While he had been here before, his family was not. Thus the trip was a lot longer as everyone took their time to look around. At each corner, there was something fascinating and if they had cameras they would probably be taking all sorts of photos.

Long Yanyu was their guide along with a few other beauties that were sent over to greet them. While more than just his family members left the ship they had been divided into two groups. The one he was in only had his kids and his wife as the others were not allowed to enter the innermost palace where some secrets were hidden.

Zhang Jin was more than happy to be guided by some other beauties that were not related to the Azure Emperor. With his silver tongue, he hoped to have him foster some good relations with the Long Clan members. What Zhang Dong was interested in was his image with these people.

Being the golden dragon gave him a certain amount of power as he was in line for the throne. While normally the Azure Emperor’s children would only have that privilege his younger brother was a close second. If per chance the current Emperor died in battle he could take over depending on how the other clan members saw it.

If they only considered his combat prowess then he was more than qualified as the three royal offsprings were not his equals. Yet this was not a small clan or a sect with ten nascent soul masters, there were hundreds of them here. If they all banded together even his power would not be enough to get him the throne.

On the other hand, the clan members would probably not wish to antagonize him in such a way. If a battle broke out then the only ones that would be winning were their enemies. The more infighting in a clan the more it would be weakened. Outsiders such as the Heavenly Crane Sect could then use this as a chance to invade or take away some of the undefended lands.

His motivation didn’t align with the current Long Clan as well. If he was the Emperor now he would already be storming the border regions to take out the enemies and find Wang Long. He knew that the more they waited the more their enemies would build up their strategic advantage.

However they didn’t see those lands as worthwhile, they knew that the war would only take about a hundred years. For cultivators hundred years was nothing, if they could just wait here then it was fine.

‘Why risk your life if there is nothing to gain or lose huh? Would be nice if I could just tell everyone about the system and the other worlds but not like they would believe me… at most they would think that I’ve gone crazy or that someone altered my memories.’

There were techniques to make others spill all sorts of information. Thus there were also ones developed to counter them. One of them was altering the memories of the person after they were captured. If someone tried prodding their brain for knowledge the hidden technique would trigger to alter their memories. The person would not even know that they were changed and give wrong information.

Of course, there were other arts that allowed people to counter these altered memories before they were triggered. It was a delicate procedure that could turn the interrogation target’s brain into mush. Thus he believed that even if he was put under such a technique they would believe that his memories were probably altered instead.

‘I guess I can only slowly build up my trust with these people. I just hope that it isn’t too late by that point…’

“Welcome my precious brother!”

“I have arrived, my older brother.”

While he was thinking about getting his so-called brother on his side they arrived at the dining area. It was still strange to call this man his sibling as he knew well that they were not really related. Even if this body had the same blood as the Azure Emperor, the person controlling it came from a modern earth with no relations to anyone in this world.

The dining area had large doors through which someone that was ten meters tall would not have trouble stepping through. To the sides were many veiled beauties similar to the women he met when he teleported to the Emperor’s hidden villa. They were to the sides just standing there with their hands behind their back.

Long Qing and all of his children were already sitting next to their father and mother. The dining table was really long and reminded him of the over-exaggerated tables nobles used in the other world he was in. In his opinion, these types of furniture were not very intimate as they placed his side of the family on one end while the Emperor’s on the other.

All of the people here were ones that he knew, Long Shen the oldest brother that was looking a bit strangely in his direction. Probably after showing his swordsmanship the youth was eager to show off or ask for some pointers. Long Fengge the youngest was too afraid to meet his gaze after the previous encounter and the sister that escorted them here.

They all sat around their parents while his side did the same. Liena was to his left while his son was to his right. His little rascal of a daughter was next to her mother and already looking over the various dishes that were on the table. Zhang Dong was not much of a cook so whatever the chef made would be served at their home. The Long Clan had a long history so the food would probably be made with the best ingredients and taste accordingly.

“I’m glad that you have decided to bring your family along, I’m sure my children will get along with yours, isn’t that right?”

“Yes, father.”

All three replied in an instant as if they were afraid to go against their father’s wishes. He did notice that there was a little bit of tension in the Long family. The children respected their father a lot but there was also a hint of fear in there. When he looked at his own kids, this was not present. At least not in his daughter as she quickly abandoned her seat to sit in his lap. His son on the other hand was much more reserved.

“Xiu’er, you can’t be doing that in front of the Azure Emperor…”

Liena’s brows furrowed as she tried to wrestle her daughter away from Zhang Dong’s lap. The young girl wanted to have none of that as she clung to his lap. Jun on the other hand was just looking at the plate of food before him that he wanted to dig in.

“Yanyu used to sit in my lap just like that…”

Instead of being mad, the Azure Emperor seemed to be brought to the past when his kids were younger. For a moment he looked at this daughter that turned her head down while blushing. It was as if he was trying to tell her to sit on his lap as she did in the good old days.

All of them looked kind of awkwardly at their father who started laughing out loud once more. Each time Zhang Dong was here the Emperor seemed to get livelier. Perhaps after many years of being the top cultivator in the world had caused him to be bored of life but now with his brother around he had something to focus on once more.

“I see that your youngest is interested in the roasted seven-star duck, why don’t we have a chat after we are done eating?”

“I agree.”

Zhang Dong replied while nodding his head at Jun who could finally get some food into his body after the long trip. Before arriving here he had already used his spirit sense and system to see if there was any poison or drugs in the food and discovered no foul play.

Soon everyone was eating and he had to give it to the Long Clan, their food was superior to the one he used at his sect. He was not surprised that Long Qing’s children were so strong at their age as this food has just the right amount of spiritual energy to make everyone progress through their realms fast.

“Brother, you must give my regards to the chef, this food is just too good.”

“Hah, did you hear that, he likes it.”

To his surprise, Long Qing turned to his wife who started smiling.

“Oh, did sister-in-law make this?”

“It was nothing.”

She replied while they were finishing up with their meal.

“Finally, let us withdraw. There is something I wish to show you, my brother.”

“Oh?”

“How about we leave our wives to tend to the children, I’m sure they could exchange some wife pointers!”

“Wife pointers?”

He was not sure what he meant but he could not refuse. This was Long Qing’s city and even he as his brother couldn’t refuse him without having a good reason. Just like before no secret relics were found in this place but he did not give up.

“Yes, Liena take care of the little ones while I talk with my elder brother.”

They have already discussed some safety measures before arriving here. With the system, he could instantly teleport his Liena and his children to his own location or do the reverse. She just needed to insert some spiritual energy into her ring to signal if there was something wrong. Even if she was not able he had his faction mode that could monitor her status and alert him to any foul play.

“Come, come then!”

After the two parties split he was left going through more wide corridors through the palace.

“You left before I could show you the rest of your ancestral heritage.”

“There was more?”

“Of course there was! Do you think he would only leave you with one crummy casket?”

He had bolted to chase after Wang Long previously and Long Qing didn’t mention anything else. Thus he assumed that there was nothing else that was worthwhile for him here. Perhaps there he would find something useful for the current problem he was facing.

“Yes, you are the Golden Dragon, and just as the Azure Dragon your birthright is deep!”

Finally, after going around the corner he got a good view of that heritage that had remained hidden from him, a large palace made of mostly glistering gold that stood next to the Azure Palace…
