Chapter 1119: Has my opportunity finally come?Translator: G.o.dBrandy Editor: Kurisu
After ‘dying’, the Great Northern Emperor had seized the opportunity to cut his ties with the ancient Heavenly City.
Now, they discovered that the ancestral golden dragon also wanted to ‘die’, to give birth to a child, and also look for the Great Northern Emperor. Slow-Witted Song also wished for her plan to succeed.
Just like the Great Northern Emperor, the ancestral golden dragon also seemingly wanted to cut off her ties with the ancient Heavenly City. The Great Northern Emperor had done so by preparing a method that could allow him to be reborn. As for the ancestral golden dragon, was she planning to do so by giving birth…?
“Aren’t there other messages?” Song Shuhang asked.
“No, I’ve only found these messages so far. Perhaps there are others in the Dragon King Palace, but I have yet to find them,” Yu Jiaojiao said.
“In that case, let’s go ahead and see what messages were left on the plaque, painting, and half wooden statue,” Song Shuhang said.

The duo arrived in front of the half wooden statue, and Yu Jiaojiao’s body in the Dragon King Palace also rushed in front of the half wooden statue.
The message the ancient golden dragon had left here in this place was: [Surnamed Song, you are slow-witted, slow-witted, slow-witted!]
Song Shuhang carefully looked at the half wooden statue.
The sculpted figure was wearing a scholarly robe, and it was very likely Slow-Witted Song’s sculpture. Unfortunately, the sculpture’s upper half was missing, and there was no way to see Slow-Witted Song’s facial features.
“It would have been better if the upper half was here instead…” Song Shuhang muttered.
Even after inspecting the sculpture for a quite some time, Song Shuhang didn’t find anything useful.
“Slow-Witted Song didn’t leave any message on the sculpture?” Song Shuhang asked.
“Maybe he didn’t know how to reply to the question?” Yu Jiaojiao guessed.
Song Shuhang said, “You have a point. Let’s take a look at the other two messages.”

Next, the duo went to see the ‘painting’.
There was a lifelike divine beast drawn on the picture scroll. The beast seemed to be the combination of 36 different animals.
Song Shuhang stared at the painting, and asked, “What kind of divine beast is this?”
Yu Jiaojiao replied, “It’s the pet of the ancestral golden dragon, a divine beast that lived during the initial period of the remote era. It’s said that the beast possessed 36 different forms with different abilities. It’s a very powerful divine beast with great battle prowess.”
“A beast with 36 different forms and with each form having different abilities?” Song Shuhang held his chin and pondered. “Among its forms, was there one that looked like a pig?”
He had recalled that Senior Lightning Pig with sloth cancer he had met on the mysterious island, the same senior that had kidnapped Immortal Master Copper Trigram for breeding purposes.
Senior Lightning Pig, Senior a.n.u.s Pig for friends, possessed 36 different forms, and definitely matched the divine beast drawn on the picture scroll.
“Yes! If you look at this part of the picture, you’ll see the pig-like form.” Yu Jiaojiao pointed at the center of the picture. The curled up tail of the divine beast was that of a pig.
“Does it also have the form of a white crane?” Song Shuhang asked. The last time he saw ‘Senior Lightning Pig’, it had said that True Monarch White Crane had inherited part of its bloodline and thus one of its forms.
“Yes. Among its 18 wings, one is that of a white crane,” Yu Jiaojiao replied.
Song Shuhang was now sure that the lightning pig he had seen after dreaming about his experience on the mysterious island was the same divine beast depicted on the picture scroll.
If the lightning pig was the divine beast depicted on the picture scroll, the ‘white dragon’ it was protecting was possibly the child that the ancestral golden dragon had given birth to, her own method to cut off ties with the ancient Heavenly City.
Still, the small white dragon he saw on the mysterious island had been placed inside a crystal coffin, and its body had no life aura.
The dragon wasn’t dead, but it was waiting for the opportunity to come back to life. He knew it because when he was in the dreamland, the little white dragon came out and patted Song Shuhang.
The only problem was that something went wrong with her resurrection method.
If my guess is correct, something must have gone wrong with the ‘plan’ of the ancestral golden dragon. Just like the Great Northern Emperor, she is seemingly waiting to come back to life. The Great Northern Emperor was stuck because his foolish servant, the jade turtle, didn’t activate his resurrection method. As for the little white dragon, it must be waiting for the right conditions, Song Shuhang thought to himself.
When he was in the dreamland and recovered part of his memories of the mysterious island, he remembered carrying out a transaction with the skeletal dragon. Back then, he had poured some of his blood in the grooves of the crystal coffin.
Unfortunately, his blood didn’t resonate with the coffin in the end.
However, when he asked the skeletal dragon protecting the crystal coffin if whatever they were doing had failed, the reply he received was quite interesting.
The skeletal dragon had said, “It didn’t fail… but it didn’t succeed, either.”
