Chapter 523 Ancient Dragon Ball
Lin Zhao and the family of three waited for about half an hour before the person Xuan Cang was waiting for appeared in their sight. It was a handsome young man, but the boy's face did not look very good. When he saw Xuan Cang, his expression eased a little.
"Brother Cang, it's really you!"
His eyes wandered between Lin Zhao and Pistil. He was unsure of their identities for a moment. Seeing Pistil holding A Bao, who looked similar to Xuan Cang, he confirmed her identity: "This must be my sister-in-law. My name is Xuan Ye, you can just call me Xiao Ye. Who is this girl?"
If it was an ordinary beautiful woman, Xuanye might have thought she was Xuan Cang's concubine. After all, the dragon clan likes beauties, and it is not uncommon to have several wives.
However, Lin Zhao's temperament and the subtle sense of danger she gave him made Xuanye reject this idea at the first opportunity.
Xuan Cang said: "Miss Lin is our lifesaver."
Hearing this, Xuanye nodded, bowed to Lin Zhao, and then looked at Xuancang: "Brother Cang, you're back just in time. I don't know what kind of luck that bastard Cang Chong got, he actually got promoted to the calamity, and that Jiaolong clan..."
Having said that, Xuanye realized something and subconsciously glanced at the pistil.
Xuan Cang waved his hand: "Go ahead, Madam will know sooner or later."
Xuanye exhaled: "Your previous fiancée has now become a Taoist couple with Xuan Chong. I always said that woman was not a good person. If she hadn't come forward to testify for the Northern King's lineage, you wouldn't have been expelled from the Black Dragon Clan."
Xuan Cang shook his head and said, "What happened in the past is all in the past. When the treasure was stolen, it was indeed my fault for not supervising it properly. I came back now mainly for A-Bao to recognize his ancestors and to bring Miss Lin to see... the clan leader."
Xuanye asked, "You still won't call back the clan leader, father?"
Xuan Cang said calmly: "I was expelled. Even if I wanted to recognize myself as a father, the clan leader might not recognize me as an unfilial son."
Xuanye said: "What are you talking about? Over the years, we have seen how much the clan leader wants Cangge to come back. After all, Cangge was the heir designated by the clan leader."
Xuan Cang said: "Let's see the situation first."
"Don't worry, even if the clan leader doesn't let you go back, your father will definitely make the decision for Brother Cang!" Xuanye patted Xuan Cang's shoulder.
Lin Zhao and Pistil followed behind the two of them and looked at each other. Pistil's eyes were filled with worry and uneasiness, while Lin Zhao seemed to be thinking about something until Pistil sent her a message.
"Lin Zhao, I thought Xuan Cang was just an ordinary Black Dragon prince, but I didn't expect that from what his younger brother said, he is actually the son of the clan leader? Or the former heir, and he has a fiancée. Do you think his father will recognize me like this?"
The usually tough female earth dragon now showed some anxiety like a daughter-in-law meeting her parents-in-law.
Seeing this, Lin Zhao patted her shoulder and sent a message back: "Don't worry, Abao is here."
Pistil bit her lip and tightened her arms around her son. Lin Zhao sent a message: "If they don't recognize you, come with me. I will take you back to the Zuhuang Empire and give you a fiefdom. You don't need to rely on anyone with your strength."
That was true. Pistil suddenly understood and gave Lin Zhao a grateful look.
After all, she is a female earth dragon with powerful fighting ability. Now she can be regarded as an expert in the Nascent Soul Great Perfection. At worst, if the Black Dragon Clan does not recognize her, she can just go home with Lin Zhao.
As for Abao...
Lin Zhao sent her another message: "They don't recognize you. I will help you take Abao away."
If someone else said this, Pistil would just sneer, but when Lin Zhao said this, Pistil straightened her back.
She looked at Lin Zhao with more respect and moved closer to her.
Before she met Lin Zhao, she always got a sense of security from her husband. But after she suddenly learned that her husband's status was much different from hers, the sense of security brought by her husband became shaky. Lin Zhao gave her a completely different sense of security.
This feeling will not change because of Lin Zhao's identity, but will become deeper and deeper as time goes by.
Xuan Cang walked in front and discussed with Xuan Ye. When he heard that Pistil was an earth dragon and A Bao was a black dragon with a relatively pure bloodline, Xuan Ye did not express anything else, but only sighed: "Sister-in-law worked hard back then. But as for the clan leader..."
If Xuan Cang's strength reaches that of a True Immortal, he may still have the right to choose his own marriage, but now he is just transcending the tribulation. He may have some say in the choice of his woman, but when it comes to his Taoist partner...
"Brother Cang, you should wait until the clan leader calms down before you tell him about your sister-in-law."
After all, Xuan Cang was driven out in the first place, and now he comes back with a member of the Earth Dragon Clan saying that he wants to be his Taoist partner. The clan leader will probably get so angry that he will drive him out again.
Xuan Cang shook his head: "My wife has always been with me, and I will never let her down. If the clan leader doesn't recognize me as his wife, then the Black Dragon Clan will just treat me as a sinful dragon."
There was something meaningful in his words, which made Xuanye look at him involuntarily: "Brother, have you found a way to clear your name?"
Xuan Cang was expelled from the clan because he failed to guard the ancestral temple and lost the Black Dragon clan's treasure, the Ancient Dragon Ball.
Originally, he was not considered a sinner in the clan because he had only lost it unintentionally. However, Xuan Cang's then-fiancée, Qing Yao, the princess of the Jiaolong clan, came forward to accuse Xuan Cang of dereliction of duty. During the time when the ancient dragon ball was stolen, he even broke into the soul land of the Black Dragon clan without permission, in an attempt to gain the recognition of the clan soldiers.
It would have been fine if he had just pointed the finger, but the Northern King took advantage of the situation and actually found the spiritual plant Dragon Grass, which was only found in the clan soul land, on Xuan Cang. This forced the Western King, who had sat on the position of clan leader at the time, to order his son to be severely punished.
As a result of multiple crimes, Xuan Cang became the sinful dragon of the Black Dragon Clan and was expelled from the clan. This was the result of the efforts of the clan leader.
After all, if it were any other black dragon, losing the ancient dragon ball would be enough to kill him, not to mention neglecting his duty in guarding the ancestral temple and trespassing into the land of the clan soul.
However, in recent years, the West King has firmly established himself as the clan leader. After his cultivation surpassed that of the True Immortal, he has become one of the top five ancestral dragon masters. He has already gained the final say in the Black Dragon Clan. Even the North King's lineage does not dare to use what happened in the past to resist the clan leader.
Therefore, Xuanye had the confidence to take Xuan Cang back directly.
"I have found the ancient dragon ball." Xuan Cang lowered his eyes.
He originally planned to live outside the clan with this bead for the rest of his life.
He did not neglect his duties at the beginning. The Ancient Dragon Ball was stolen by someone. He chased after the person when he saw him, but was defeated and knocked unconscious. When he woke up, he was identified by his fiancée, framed by the King of the North, and his biological father forcibly accused him of a crime in order to protect his position as the clan leader.
It was funny that he didn't understand anything at the time. He just thought that his father was deceived. After being tortured and thrown out by the tribe, he managed to hold on for a breath and followed the tracking talisman he had added on the thief to the Zuhuang plane and retrieved the ancient dragon ball.
However, before he returned, he learned the truth from his mother. He was disheartened and went to Wolong Valley, planning to stay there for the rest of his life.
