Yu Longyan casually kicked Lin Zhan, who was still faking it, "That's enough. Your grandfather sees your true nature clearly. Do you have any wine? I'll teach you some real skills later."
"Yes, of course. Old Ancestor, you just relax, and your grandson will take care of the rest." Lin Zhan immediately busied himself with enthusiasm.
"Old Ancestor, try this. This is tiger bone wine, this is fruit wine, and this last one is amazing – it's Hundred Flower Brew." Lin Zhan quickly brought out over ten jars of wine and poured them for Yu Longyan and the other two.
In fact, cultivators like Yu Longyan had long surpassed the concept of biology. They could go thousands of years without eating or drinking. However, everyone had their preferences, and the desire for good food and drink served as a form of regulation.
"It's alright, just a bit weak. Where did you get this wine brewed by a young tiger cub? It lacks flavor." The Black Dragon King, drinking the tiger bone wine brewed with a lord-level demon tiger, felt it was vastly inferior.
Yu Longyan observed everyone and nodded, thinking to himself that they were all good prospects. With these youngsters growing up, their Huaxia's future would not lack figures capable of bearing great responsibilities.
He then looked at Zhang Lingxiu specifically and asked Lin Zhan, "What is your relationship with that girl? Why does she still carry your aura?"
Lin Zhan replied with a shy smile, "Hehe, Old Ancestor, she's my wife. My grandfather arranged our engagement."
"You little brat, how old are you? You've done everything but consummate the marriage. Don't you want to cultivate properly?" Yu Longyan said, kicking Lin Zhan's backside. Su Dan Novel Network.
"Hahaha, I didn't realize this little fellow was so mischievous." The Black Dragon brothers roared with laughter.
"You little brat, treat this girl well. Don't even think about consummating the marriage within three years, or I'll castrate you."
Lin Zhan shivered and quickly clasped his legs, saying, "Old Ancestor, rest assured, I will focus on cultivation and promise not to mess around."
"You little brat, looking at your bloodline, you seem to be a descendant of that kid Zi Tang. How is Zi Tang doing?" Yu Longyan said, carefully observing Lin Zhan's bloodline.
"Zi Tang? Old Ancestor, my family only told me that the Lin family were descendants of Emperor Xin. I don't know anything else."
"Black Second, you slept for a long time. What's going on? This little brat doesn't even know who his ancestor is." Yu Longyan turned to the Black Dragon King when he heard Lin Zhan's answer.
"Emperor Xin is Zi Xin, the last ruler of the Shang Dynasty founded by Zi Tang. Unfortunately, after the Battle of the Gods broke out and the Shang Dynasty was defeated, Zi Xin became the last Human King. It is said that after Emperor Xin, there were no more Human Kings."
"Damn it, after we old guys are gone, humanity is bullied like this. I'll ask the Great Emperor when we get back to see what's going on. We need to reclaim our honor."
"Kid, what's the deal with those foreigners you tied up? And that dark-skinned one."
"Old Ancestor, those are hostages waiting to be ransomed. This dark-skinned brother is a new foreign subordinate we took in, and he's quite sensible." Lin Zhan pointed at Adam, the Buddhist disciple, and Babulu.
"Oh, this little fellow has even taken up kidnapping. It's a shame he doesn't have the surname Liu or Yu Long, otherwise, people would believe he's your descendant, Yu Longyan. You were just like him back then, doing everything but doing good deeds." The Black Dragon Emperor teased Yu Longyan.
Little Jin, salivating at the roasted wings, asked, "Black Dragon Old Ancestor, what does it have to do with my boss's surname being Liu?"
"The surname Liu is the bloodline inheritance of the Yu Long clan, personally bestowed by Emperor Xuanyuan. Otherwise, how could the Liu family sign a contract with the Black Dragon clan and invite them to participate in the war?" The Black Dragon Emperor looked at Little Jin with great fondness and tore off a piece of wing to feed him.
"You little dragon cub, you're a descendant of Golden Dragon Emperor Jin Ao, aren't you? And that little turtle cub, why are you so far from your ancestor? Come here, let your ancestor have a good look." The Black Dragon Emperor turned to Little Black, who was nearby.
The Black Dragon King also tore off a piece from his wing and fed it to Little Black, then turned to his elder brother and said, "Boss, this little turtle's bloodline has reverted to its ancestral form. It looks like it's the bloodline of our fourth brother, Xuanwu."
"It truly is fourth brother's bloodline. This is interesting. Jin Ao's bloodline and Xuanwu's bloodline have actually contracted with this kid from the Zi Tang family. Who is manipulating this from behind the scenes?"
The three old fellows, calling each other "Old Ancestor" one after another, had clearly been out of slumber for thousands of years and were now addicted to playing the role of ancestors. However, their words left Lin Zhan and the others bewildered. It seemed that humanity held too many hidden secrets.
"Alright, we've eaten our fill. Since we've consumed these youngsters' wine and meat, we must give them some benefits in return. Otherwise, how can we call ourselves ancestors?" Yu Longyan said to the Black Dragon brothers after eating and drinking his fill.
"Second Brother, these youngsters lack spiritual energy and have room for improvement. Take them to the spiritual脉 (língmài - spiritual veins) to cultivate and build a good foundation. Also, give that dog-raising kid some spiritual beast pills." Yu Longyan pointed at Leng Shan and the others.
"As for these two little brats, let First Brother take them for training. As divine beasts, how can their combat power be worthy of their bloodline?" He pointed at Little Jin and Little Black and the Dragon Emperor.
"As for this kid, I'll take him and train him well. I don't know how he cultivates; his body is full of spiritual energy, yet he doesn't know how to refine it. I'll also teach him some of the Yu Long clan's techniques. It's not fitting for him to be a divine beast and still fight with blades against others." With that, Yu Longyan grabbed Lin Zhan and vanished from the space.
"Boss, it seems Yan thinks highly of this kid. Is he going to pass down the Yu Long clan's legacy to him?"
"This child is indeed excellent and worthy of the Yu Long clan's legacy, especially since he is a descendant of our Huaxia's ancient bloodline." With that, the two brothers led everyone and vanished from the space.
"Wuwu, wuwu," Babulu looked at Adam Sol and the three bald brothers tied up together, unsure what to do.
"Hey, dark-skinned one, take these two pills, one for you and one for your little cat. Cultivate well." The Black Dragon Emperor's voice reached Babulu's ears, and then two pills flew into his hand.
"I'm so clever. If I hadn't followed these Huaxia big shots, let alone pills, I probably wouldn't even have my life now." Babulu was very satisfied with his intelligence.
"Hmm, it feels like something is missing. Adam and the Buddhist disciple are here, and nothing seems to be missing." Babulu looked at Adam Sol and the three drooling idiots in bald heads and suddenly felt that something had been forgotten.
William, the knight of Great Britain, who was at a loss in the valley, looked at the entrance before him but could not enter. He couldn't find an exit to go back either, and tears streamed down his face.
"Is anyone there? Who will save me? Lin Zhan, Ying Xuan, Zhang Haoran, where are you all? I'll give you money, give you spirit stones, just come out and tie me up!"
