I am just a mortal, why do you all worship me as a saint?

Chapter 966: Reward



Chapter 966: Reward

Chapter 966: Reward

With someone there to back him up, Gu Heng naturally didn't intend to be subservient. He didn't care whether his act was convincing or not; he simply started by saying a few words in a calm tone, subtly expressing his dissatisfaction.

Since they are all "Human Race Venerables" anyway, there's no need to be afraid of them.

"Senior Will of Burial Ground, this is indeed..."

The dragon clan prodigies, who had been forced to kneel on the ground by the pressure of the Burial Soil's will, stood up somewhat disheveled. Yang Zhun was about to speak when he was coldly interrupted by the Burial Soil's will.

"Did I let you talk?"

As soon as it finished speaking, it let out another cold snort, and its majesty surged towards Yang Zhun like a rolling wave, instantly turning his face pale as he was already struggling to breathe after just standing up. He wanted to say something in rebuttal, but seeing how serious the Will of the Burial Soil was, he could only swallow his words.

suffocated.

It’s so frustrating.

Yang Zhun had never been so humble before. Even when facing the elders of his clan, he was neither arrogant nor humble, but the will of the burial earth was something that even if he was forced to kneel repeatedly and was not allowed to speak properly, Yang Zhun was helpless.

Ultimately, the Dragon Clan civilization still values ​​strength above all else. In the face of power, neither status nor seniority matters.

The will of the burial earth was severely injured, but crushing them would still be an easy task for it.

"It was my overstepping my bounds, and I hope you will forgive me."

Yang Zhun, his face contorted with grief, cupped his hands and said.

The will of the burial earth did not answer, but turned to look at Gu Heng. Gu Heng simply nodded.

He was willing to argue, but since he was just using someone else's name, it would be best if both sides backed down. Otherwise, if he pushed him too far, he would lose face.

"Yes, Venerable Senior will not hold your rudeness against you."

Fortunately.

The two big shots weren't angry.

otherwise.

The will of the Burial Grounds is prepared to eliminate all thirteen little dragon cubs participating in the Ancestral Soul Trial and hold another trial!

As for whether the dragon prodigies might feel that the threatening actions of the Burial Ground's Will were favoring this human, and thus harbor resentment...

None of that matters.

If you have any complaints, go back and tell your elders later.

They might not even have the guts to say it.

“Your Excellency, you may now give them some rewards.”

Once the dragon clan prodigies had calmed down, the will of the burial earth spoke.

"Okay, let me think about it..."

Gu Heng nodded, then looked at the thirteen dragon prodigies who were now as obedient as could be. He then rummaged through his system backpack, picking and choosing among them.

His behavior was particularly unsettling to a group of dragon prodigies, as if he was deliberately making things difficult for them, or as if he felt they were unworthy of the reward!

Every one of them is a chosen one of heaven. In this world, even the strongest people from other races treat them with kindness and respect. They have never been treated with such contempt before!

Everyone was holding back, though some wanted to ask this Venerable One what he was planning, but the Will of Burial Earth stood by, watching intently, so everyone had to endure it. Except… one of them.

Of all the people who were affected by this sudden change, only Xiaobai was in a better mood.

His mind was in turmoil!

to be frank.

He hadn't moved just now, simply thinking he might be seeing things, but after that initial shock, Xiaobai realized it.

It's really him!

The master is back!

But Xiao Bai was so excited that he almost lost control of his current form. After all, his human body was not his true form. If he got too excited, he might cause an agitation that would attract the attention of other dragons. Even so, he was already trembling.

It's been so many years. If we count from the moment the owner disappeared, it's definitely been more than ten years, or even longer!

But he could hardly pay attention to the passage of time anymore. Unlike the lower realms of Origin, the myriad realms of heaven and earth had completely different pressures, and time and space were incomparable. Cultivation realms above the Origin Realm were becoming increasingly difficult and insurmountable.

Throughout the myriad realms, terms like "epoch" and "meeting" are used to refer to how much time has passed.

Although a typical era is 720,000 years, Xiaobai has also discovered that not every era is like this, and there are special exceptions.

For example, when a major event occurs, it usually signifies the end of an era, which may even be less than ten thousand years long...

Especially the Dragon Clan civilization.

Dragons in the world's realm, if they choose to sleep or remain dormant, will spend thousands or even tens of thousands of years.

The cultivators on the other side of human civilization are probably the same.

Therefore, time has become somewhat blurred for a novice.

He couldn't remember when he last contacted Qin Yiyao and those close to Gu Heng, but in any case, everyone's goal was to continue cultivating and becoming stronger under the current circumstances, in order to prepare for entering the Epoch Graveyard in the future.

It seems that plans can never keep up with changes.

Xiao Bai could tell that Gu Heng had been unintentionally dragged into this Ancestral Soul Trial. His hesitant appearance must have been because he was summoned by the will of the Burial Ground on a whim, so he hadn't made any preparations.

He had to endure it and not cause trouble for his master!

If I rashly go and claim veneration now, it will definitely cause other troubles.

So, Xiaobai decided to wait.

He had been waiting for a long time, and didn't mind waiting a little longer.

"...System, help me make a decision." Gu Heng had been thinking for a long time and had already made up his mind. He then glanced at Gu Xitong, intending to ask for her opinion one last time.

This time, Gu Xitong finally responded, whispering something in his ear.

at last.

Gu Heng decided to offer the rewards to these dragons.

He gave each dragon a bottle of pills and a weapon, then took out a picture book and tore out thirteen sheets of paper.

The first two are self-explanatory. His system inventory is mostly filled with pills he has refined and weapons he has forged himself. These are the treasures that the ghost brother mentioned, which are also used by dragons, as human cultivators can use.

That being the case.

Then Gu Heng won't be picky anymore.

As for that piece of paper... it was torn from the "Secret Diagram of Destiny Creation". The system said that this book was quite valuable to the Dragon Clan civilization, but Gu Heng didn't know exactly how valuable it was; he just tore the paper off anyway.

Anyway, he probably hasn't used this thing in a long time.
