Chapter 1555 The Purple-crystal King Gained The Benefit (1/2)
”No need to thank us. We only did what we thought was right. Scott decided to stay behind in the human race. Besides, the Archean Dragon Soul left in your halberd has proved to be advantageous to Scott,” the Purple Gold Dragon Ancestor said, humility resonating from his tone.
”Have you been able to find that...” Finally breaking his silence, the Yellow Gold Dragon Ancestor sensed something strange and alerted the Purple Gold Dragon Ancestor.
”No... Human ancestor!” As soon as the Purple Gold Dragon Ancestor confirmed it for himself, he was left shocked, unable to string the right words to say. The human ancestor had the aura of the supreme god radiating from himself!
What did that mean? It meant only one thing: the human ancestor had committed the taboo method to forcefully progress his cultivation level by leaps and bounds through triggering the Archean Dragon Soul to reach that of the Supreme God Realm. The ones who dared step over this boundary had their fates sealed. They would have to atone for the extreme act at the cost of their life.
”No... This can't be...”
Sighing with deep regret, the two dragon ancestors hung their heads, feeling helpless.
”It's all our fault. If we came on time, you wouldn't have to resort to such extremities,”
The two dragon ancestors were overcome with grief, their voice cracking between their words.
”I'm the one who made this bed, and I am the one who shall lie in it. You have no share in this situation. This is my fate, and I shall embrace it. After my passing, I want you two to ensure the survival of the younger generation of the human race in my stead. If you're unable to dissolve the looming strife, then flee with the remaining remarkable talents of the human race to continue on living. Thank you, both of you, for everything you've done so far. I am deeply indebted to you.”
Keeping his dignity intact, the human ancestor voiced his wishes without breaking his composure and bowed before the two dragon ancestors.
”You don't have to thank us.” Returning his gesture, the dragon ancestors quickly bowed to him with mutual respect. ”We promise that we will spare no effort to protect the human race against the dangers that await them. And if push comes to shove, we will do what must be done. You can rest assured. We won't let you down.”
Hearing their reassuring statements, the human ancestor smiled to them and nodded. With their promise honoring his wishes, he felt relieved.
”Scott's Archean Dragon Soul has returned to his body. It will take about half a month for him to fully recover. By then, he will be able to revert to his ancestor form. Once he awakens, please ask him what he intends to do. Whether he wants to stay here to guard the human race or head to the abyss to assist Darren, he holds complete freedom to choose whatever path he wants to walk on,” the human ancestor said, his hands behind his back.
”Understood. Is there anything else you want us to do for you?”
