HE WAS STARTLED. Yang Lujia didn't expect to find his second disciple so soon. Moreover, it was a person from the Dragon's Lair, and he was more talented than Lin Diyu.
A triple S-Class genius!
"Lin Diyu, hold on tight. Your reputation as my chief disciple shall never be despised by your future junior sisters and junior brothers!" he thought.
[Target's Information: The SSS-Class Genius is a three-month-old infant named Long Guang. He possesses the Dragon King Body, the recognized sixth strongest body of the five realms. However, just an hour ago, the echinemons decided to plot against the Dragon's Lair of the Realm of Death because of Long Guang's terrifying body that could possibly suppress the echinemons' only genius, Zhao Dilao, who embodies the seventh strongest body of the five realms, the Fiend Echinemon Body. Both bodies are the nemesis of each other. Long Guang's parents were killed, sacrificing their lives for Long Guang's life and transporting him to the depths of the Dragon's Lair.]
[New Mission Triggered: Kill the Child of Pan Gu, Zhao Dilao! Reward: System Upgrade, Twenty Lottery Draws from the System's Wheel of Fate!]
[Main Mission Triggered: Insufficient System Level! Needs Upgrade!]
Reading the information of his second to-be-disciple, his eyes twitched. The system always found him an enemy. Lin Diyu had not yet resolved his own issue, but at the moment, the system gave him a signal of another headache. In the end, he shook his head. Since he couldn't find a way to strengthen his cultivation anymore, he might as well kill some time by recruiting disciples.
"Lin Diyu, let's go," Yang Lujia said after he plundered all the wine from the restaurant. "We will have to rescue your junior brother."
Lin Diyu's eyes lit up. He would finally have a little junior brother! Ignoring his master's deed of stealing wine, he impatiently nodded at his master.
Just as he left, the owner of the restaurant burst out an aura at the True God Realm. The customers were taken aback; their backs were filled with cold sweat.
"Who angered the owner of the restaurant? He is a powerhouse at the True God Realm! Someone really dared to make him react like this? What did the other party do?"
"I also knew that the owner of the restaurant was on the verge of breaking through and reach the God King Realm. However, just now..."
"Yes, those wines, I heard he accumulated all of them just to prepare for his breakthrough to the God King Realm."
HISS!
Everyone couldn't believe that there would be someone so bold to do such a thing. As though unaware of what happened, the customers and some guests went on to their food and ate peacefully.
On the other side, Yang Lujia let out a sneeze while flying towards the coordinates given by the system.
His disciple, Lin Diyu, looked at him with concern. "Master, are you sick?"
Yang Lujia glared at the direction where they left. "No, someone was just badmouthing me. He dares to badmouth me!" He raised his right hand and chanted: "Misfortune Enhancement!"
When the owner of the restaurant walked down the stairs of his restaurant, he suddenly tripped and fell down with his fat body. His eyes were fuming with anger, and his ears were seemingly emitting some steam. The moment he stood up under the gaze of his own customers, his stomach made a gurgling sound. A fart roared loudly, causing his face to turn bright red. Swallowing the shame and anger, he went back upstairs, but he unexpectedly met a force pushing him down the stairs once more.
PUFF!
"Sorry, I need to do something very important!" a customer said, almost pushing out a mocking laugh after staring at the demise of the owner of the restaurant. Not daring to be presumptuous in front of such a powerhouse, he sacrificed his urge to laugh and went outside.
In the ruins of the Dragon's Lair, Yang Lujia's eyes swirled and turned purple. "It was indeed the echinemons' auras. Grandpa told me a story before. Echinemons are the nemesis of dragons. They are immune to the dragons' suppressive aura. Plus, they love to do sneak attacks. Their appearances was akin to a lion with the face of a wolf. It had a soft fur and the its feet soles were tinted with black."
"Echinemons? It's my first time hearing such a name for a creature, master."
"I don't need your opinion."
"..."
"Let's go and meet your little junior brother. When we finally recruit him, don't do bad things to your little junior brother. Although you're not brothers in blood, treat him like your own brother."
Lin Diyu got enthused about his junior brother. For the master to have been able to perceive and accept this junior brother personally, it goes to show how talented his junior brother would be.
Walking into the ruins, Yang Lujia thought of wine and went to the treasury area of the Dragon's Lair. Grumpily, he left the sight as the whole area's treasures were already ravaged. He got exasperated at the thought—that he wanted to go to the place of echinemons at the moment and flattened their place. However, he couldn't do so.
He must wait for this three-month-old disciple to grow up. Revenge can only become the most satisfying when done by one's own hands. Thus, his wine must definitely wait. Besides, he had too much wine in his possession at the moment to count, not to mention those heaven-ranked elixirs.
"Owah! Owah! Owah!"
The sound of cries reached their ears when they finally reached the depths of the Dragon's Lair. If not for Yang Lujia, no one would have found this place within the depths of the Dragon's Lair. It was so hidden that if not deliberately searched, no one would be able to find it.
Entering this place, the whole space warped. Within the space, there was only one infant, crying, wrapped in white cloth. Seeing the child's situation, Yang Lujia's stiff expression softened.
Although he was strict in his past life, a child's cry could completely soothe his raging emotions. He had no kids of his own, but he had seen, met, and even mingled with several. Moreover, Yang Lujia could still remember that scene when he first came to this world.
Wrapped, like in this case, he was also picked up by someone who soon became his adoptive grandfather. Melancholy appeared in his always-indifferent eyes.
"Grandpa, how are you doing now? This child..." He then shook his head and stared at the baby with compassion.
Seeing his master's caring eyes for his little junior brother, he was stunned and stretched a gentle smile on his face. "Master..."
Yang Lujia soon came to Long Guang. "Come, come, come to grandpa..."
"Grandpa?" Lin Diyu was dumbfounded.
Realizing what he said, Yang Lujia coughed and corrected himself: "I mean, master." His feelings for his grandfather almost broke out. If he did not suppress it quickly enough, the image of himself before his disciple would definitely be destroyed!
He lifted the baby and placed it across his arms. He stared at the baby's face. It was as pure as white. This baby, at first glance, could not possibly be a waste!
This time, looking at Yang Lujia's face, the baby laughed in his tiny voice. Long Guang felt a familiar aura from Yang Lujia. Due to this, the baby was feeling ecstatic and excited.
"Papaa!"
"Huh?" Yang Lujia was stumped.
Lin Diyu was, on the other hand, dumbfounded.
"..."
"Papaa!"
"No! Call me master!"
"Papaa!"
"Master!"
"Papaaa!"
"Master!"
"Papaa!"
"Alright!"
Lin Diyu: "..."
[Ding! Congratulations to the Host for obtaining your second disciple, Long Guang!]
[Rewards: Dragon Emperor Scripture, War Dragon Hammer (Heaven-Ranked Divine Artifact), 10,000 Bottles of Heaven-Ranked Elixir, and a chance to draw from the Wheel of Fate lottery!]
Like it? Add to library!
YANG LUJIA TOOK no notice of the system's prompt. His eyes were focused on his second disciple, Long Guang, the little dragon. Perhaps because of the fact that he has the Avatar Dragon Body, he was able to feel a bloodline connection with the little boy.
Long Guang's large green eyes were lucid while his mouth was slightly open. His body as if covered with scales was quite difficult to pierce through. According to the system, Long Guang has the bloodline of the Dragon Emperor, giving him the appearance of the first dragon in the history of the universe: Asgorath, the dragon who created the other dragons.
Asgorath, the strongest dragon, fought with the Primordial King of Terror, Erek-Hus. Ending to his defeat, he was split into two by the latter. A year after, two dragons emerged from his torn body. However, it was said that his consciousness was still present in the universe, overlooking his children, the dragons. If the situation demands him to take action, especially if for a talented dragon, he would not hesitate to sacrifice his consciousness for his child.
It was only a legend. But he felt like there was something more to it.
[Ding! Does the Host want to use the one chance to draw from the Wheel of Fate?]
When Yang Lujia heard of another prompt, he glanced sideways. "What is the Wheel of Fate?"
[Ding! The Wheel of Fate is one of the top 10 wonders of the universe. It can generate treasures, elixirs, special bodies, and several more.]
Pinching the baby's nose, he responded to the system: "Use the one chance to draw from the Wheel of Fate!"
[Ding! Drawing from the Wheel of Fate is now starting! The Wheel of Fate will only stop spinning after the Host says stop.]
Yang Lujia looked at the four-cornered bluish box in front of him. A wheel appeared on it, spinning so fast that its contents were not readable. Helpless, Yang Lujia exclaimed in his mind: "Stop!"
[Ding! Congratulations to the Host for obtaining a heaven-ranked divine artifact called the Baby Milk Bottle!]
[Baby Milk Bottle: It can produce an infinite amount of heaven-ranked milk elixir to help you raise a healthy baby. Because the baby may explode due to the potency of a heaven-ranked elixir, it can manipulate the concentration of the heaven-ranked milk elixir to the baby's current capacity and mix it with water from the Lake of Life. As the owner of the bottle grows, the concentration of the heaven-ranked milk elixir will also change.]
Reading the description of the Baby Milk Bottle, his eyes lit up. It was the perfect thing for his second disciple. Without any second thoughts, he pulled the Baby Milk Bottle from the system's space and happily gave it to Long Guang.
"Long Guang, this is your master's first gift to you. This is called the Baby Milk Bottle. It has unlimited heaven-ranked milk elixir inside and will be mixed with the water from the Lake of Life," he said dotingly.
Lin Diyu's eyes were wide, staring at the Baby Milk Bottle. He couldn't help but twitch his lips.
Is the master a treasure trove?
That was his first thought, although it was really reasonable.
"Don't worry. When you grow up, the master will give you more treasures to play with. Also, the master will avenge your mama and papa!" As soon as he said the last sentence, Yang Lujia's eyes revealed a hint of anger. "Not one of my disciples can be hurt! Otherwise, I'll destroy their whole family!"
Lin Diyu's expression turned soft. Although his master was a bit unprincipled and endlessly strange, he truly cared for him and his second junior brother, Long Guang. Anyhow, if it weren't for his master, he would have remained a waste. If his master wouldn't want him to exact revenge, he would do it without hesitation.
Turning to his first disciple, Yang Lujia said to the baby: "Long Guang, this is your stupid senior brother with a low IQ. However, when you grow up, since he is your senior brother, even if you grow stronger than him, you have to respect him, okay? You must respect the old!"
Lin Diyu's cheeks flushed. "Master, I'm not yet old! At least I'm only 16 years older than my second junior brother!"
"Don't talk. If I say you're old, you're old, okay?"
"..."
Holding the baby, Long Guang, in his hands, Yang Lujia wrapped Lin Diyu with qi once more and disappeared from the place. They went to another city nearby. Renting a room for a place to stay, Yang Lujia thought of something and began to do forging. He intended to forge a crib for his precious second disciple. When Lin Diyu caught sight of this, his eyes turned gentle.
"The master is really the best!"
Yang Lujia warped the space inside the room and isolated it from the outside with his qi. Then, he undressed his robe, leaving only his white loose pants. Carrying the hammer with one hand, his fine-featured upper body was ruthlessly shown, slightly slim but muscular in a way. Along with his sharp and bluish eyes, he stared down at the forging table.
He began to hammer a piece of a heaven-ranked divine artifact for disintegration, allowing Long Guang to float on the side swathed in his qi and watch him forge the crib.
While watching his perceived father, Long Guang was on cloud nine. He was chuckling, especially when Lin Diyu started playing with him.
"Second junior brother, do you know that your master is the most powerful being in the world?" Lin Diyu talked to Long Guang while the latter was looking at him with eyes as clear as water.
"Ah-yu?" Long Guang uttered questioningly, his head slightly tilted to the side.
"Ah-yu bababa, nana ju, yaba ru! Nana baba yu ya bubaba!"
"Ah-yu! Ah-yu!" Long Guang was intrigued by Lin Diyu's words, his blood boiling with curiosity.
"Those are baby words!"
"Ah-yu?"
"Yes!"
Long Guang stared at his senior brother curiously. "Bro... bra... der?"
Lin Diyu's eyes stretched wide. "What did you just call me?"
"Ah-yu?"
"No! Not that one!" Lin Diyu was feeling a bit over the moon. "You called me brother, right?"
"Ah-yu?"
"No!"
"Yu-yu?"
Lin Diyu couldn't take it anymore and pinched his second junior brother's nose. "You're the cutest, junior brother!!!"
"Ah-yu?"
When Yang Lujia finished the crib he was forging, he turned to look at his two disciples interacting with each other. His eyes soon softened. He couldn't bear to hurt such disciples, nor could he make them suffer from the enemies' attacks. Nothing could be more precious than they are.
"Long Guang! Master has already made something for you to sleep in! It's called Long Guang's Heavenly Crib! Since your Dragon Emperor Scripture is a scripture that requires you to sleep in order to cultivate, I especially made you a crib that could easily gather the qi of heaven and earth around it. When you sleep on it, it would be akin to sleeping in heaven!" Wiping the sweat off his forehead, he genuinely smiled.
Hurriedly, Lin Diyu brought his junior brother to the crib. He placed him gently in the crib. The moment Long Guang laid down inside the crib, his eyes showed thrill.
As Yang Lujia put on a new robe, he pointed his index finger and pointed at Long Guang's forehead. Long Guang's eyes turned blank. After a while, he closed his eyes and slept.
"Master, what happened? Did second younger brother fall asleep right away?"Lin Diyu asked.
"No, he's cultivating."
"What?"
"Yes."
"..."
Yang Lujia then condensed a small world in his palm and placed Long Guang and the crib inside this small world fueled by his own qi. "Stay there, Long Guang. Master still needs to strengthen senior brother so he can protect you."
"Yes, Long Guang!" Lin Diyu's eyes turned firm, disregarding the thing his master miraculously did. "Senior Brother Diyu will protect you until your death."
Yang Lujia stared at this disciple of his approvingly.
"Oh, right? I haven't signed in to Da Sishen yet!" Yang Lujia thought. Then, he decisively gave the system an order. "System, sign in the Da Sishen!"
[Ding! Congratulations to the Host for obtaining Thanatos' Bloodline!]
"Thanatos?"
[Ding! Thanatos is the representation of death. His bloodline contains the rule of death.]
Thinking of Lin Diyu's own talent, Yang Lujia thought of something. "System, can I pass this bloodline to one of my disciples? For example, to Diyu?"
[Ding! As long as he is a disciple of the Host, the bloodline can be passed.]
His eyes showed an inexplicable joy. "I have no need for such a bloodline. I already comprehended the rule of death. And since Diyu's cultivation is leaning toward a demonic-type of cultivation practice, system, pass the Thanatos' Bloodline to Diyu!"
[Ding! Bloodline Assimilation has started! Lin Diyu, the first disciple, has been identified as the target for assimilation!]
