My System Is Three Thousand Years Early

Chapter 670: Chapter 179: Your Excellency might not have given up on me yet, still wanting to recruit me (Please Subscribe)_3

Upon hearing the Dragon Lord’s Envoy speak thus, the Dragon Lord also took the hint and did not ask further. To the Dragon Lord, the way the Envoy answered clearly indicated an unwillingness to share.

If the Dragon Lord were to keep asking, it would appear somewhat insensitive.

Even though the Dragon Lord itself did not need to know the subtleties of human relations.

However, it was to vie for a divine position among the Celestial Gods on behalf of the Dragon Clan in the future.

Therefore, at this time in the Eight-layered Devil Realm, the knowledge might not be necessary, but the Dragon Lord still knew to be aware of certain nuances.

But even so.

...

Even if the Dragon Lord’s Envoy did not tell the Dragon Lord.

The Dragon Lord could roughly guess that the master mentioned by the Envoy was very likely the Human Race individual who had just left.

After all.

Besides that group of the Human Race, no one else, or any Demon Beast had come to this Cultivation Mountain of Ten Thousand Devils.

“Did your master, in having you follow me, tell you if there’s anything I need to do?” asked the Dragon Lord.

The position of the Dragon Lord was very correct.

Knowing that the Envoy was very likely one of its own, the Dragon Lord no longer maintained the condescending attitude it had at first.

Because it knew that Cheng Guang, that member of the Human Race, was not simple.

To be able to disregard the Western Buddhas and the Celestial Gods speaks volumes of his significance. How could he be simple? @@novelbin@@

Even if the Dragon Lord itself did not want to be associated with Cheng Guang, maintaining good relations with him was not much of a problem.

At the very least, it would be good to have an additional escape route.

The Dragon Lord’s Envoy shook his head, “My master did not say.”

Upon hearing this, the Dragon Lord found it strange, “Your master did not say, did not ask me to help with something, and only had you follow me?”

“Are you to do tasks for me??”

The Dragon Lord voiced these words in surprise, muttering to itself.

However, upon hearing this, the Envoy of the Dragon Lord nodded slightly.

“My master meant just that, I was previously acting as the Dragon Lord’s Envoy,” said the Envoy.

These words nearly made the entire Dragon Vein of the Dragon Lord burn.

What nonsense??

Acting as the Dragon Lord’s Envoy???

How did you know something was amiss on my Cultivation Mountain of Ten Thousand Devils???

And how did you so timely impersonate the Dragon Lord’s Envoy????

A wave of suspicion rose in the Dragon Lord’s heart, and at the same time, it quickly realized.

“All these days I’ve been missing on Cultivation Mountain of Ten Thousand Devils, without being exposed, and without the Devil Emperor coming to investigate, could it all be your doing?”

The Dragon Lord’s gaze became fixed as it scrutinized the Envoy.

The Dragon Lord’s Envoy nodded slightly, his numb face revealing little emotion, maintaining a calm and indifferent appearance.

This very composure once again made the Dragon Lord involuntarily take a cold breath.

The shock and astonishment in its heart could no longer be contained.

“Since when have you been pretending to be the Dragon Lord’s Envoy?”

The Dragon Lord took a deep breath, trying to calm the tumultuous emotions within, and addressed the Envoy.

The Envoy replied, “Since the day you, Dragon Lord, disappeared.”

Upon just hearing these words, the Dragon Lord felt that something was not right.

If the Dragon Lord’s Envoy was under that member of the Human Race,

Then it’s likely that that Human Race individual had already foreseen all of this.

He might have predicted this accident in advance.

However.

That member of the Human Race did not do anything to it, nor caused any destruction.

Instead, he immediately sent a Demon Beast with an unfathomably deep power, which even the Dragon Lord could not fully see through, to pose as a fake Dragon Lord’s Envoy, maintaining the illusion that it was still in Cultivation Mountain of Ten Thousand Devils and had not disappeared.

“This…”

“This…”

The Dragon Lord opened its mouth slightly, wanting to say something, but due to the shock in its heart, was unable to articulate anything.

All of this was beyond the Dragon Lord’s expectations.

In its anticipation.

Cultivation Mountain of Ten Thousand Devils would be chaotic.

Eight-layered Devil Realm would be disorderly.

If afterwards it could no longer suppress that Buddha, even its entire Dragon Clan might be implicated.

But now.

Someone was helping it maintain the pretense that it was still on Cultivation Mountain of Ten Thousand Devils, that it had not disappeared.

Someone took care of that Buddha for it, though it cut off a part of its chance to please the Various Gods, the danger brought by that Buddha also disappeared.

At this moment, the Dragon Lord was unsure whether the sudden appearance of Cheng Guang was a good or bad thing.

Although the Dragon Lord could not understand it, it could feel.

Cheng Guang, this member of the Human Race, might very well be an old creature who had lived for countless years.

Also an entity capable of contending with the Western Buddhas and the Celestial Gods.

Upon this realization.

The Dragon Lord itself could understand why Cheng Guang had previously spoken with such confidence about whether it wanted to follow him or not.

Following Cheng Guang, perhaps, could really mean standing shoulder to shoulder with the Buddhas and the Gods.

But just now…

“I rejected that member of the Human Race…”

The Dragon Lord’s eyes couldn’t help but become distant, feeling a bit melancholic, as it realized it might have indeed missed out on a great opportunity.

While the Dragon Lord was lost in thought, the great dragon eyes mirrored the figure of the Envoy.

Looking at the Envoy, a glimmer of hope once again ignited in the Dragon Lord’s eyes.

“Not right.”

“Not right.”

“That member of the Human Race, after all, left you with me.”

Muttering to itself, the Dragon Lord then realized that if Cheng Guang was truly an ancient and nameless existence,

then even the casual mention of Cheng Guang behind his back could be sensed by him.

He might think it disrespectful.

If because of this, any trouble arises later, then the Dragon Lord would truly be bereft of any place to cry.

“Perhaps he has not given up on me, still wanting to recruit me,”

“Though I may not be as formidable, compared to his excellency, perhaps even insignificant, at least I still have some uses,”

thought the Dragon Lord.
