Chapter 50 The Exiled Dragon Clan
Zi Ji is a direct descendant of the Hell Dragon King and the Abyss Dragon King.
The Hell Demon Dragon King is the strongest dragon king below the nine great dragon kings. He and the Abyss Demon Dragon King are both the left and right arms of the Zihuang Annihilation Dragon, the ancestor of the dragons and dragons that are companions of the dragon god.
Back then, they joined forces with Zihuang to destroy the Heavenly Dragon, along with the Behemoth Clan and the Phoenix Clan, to launch a rebellion against the Dragon God.
Zihuang Mietianlong revealed that the Dragon God intended to deal with the Phoenix Clan and the Behemoth Clan, thus uniting them.
Di Tian's father, the Light Dragon King, killed the Hell Demon Dragon King, and his mother, the Dark Dragon King, killed the Abyss Demon Dragon King, who was the wife of the Hell Demon Dragon King.
Their young offspring, along with the women and children of both clans, were exiled and transported to the Douluo Plane at the edge of the star system via a celestial ladder. Zi Ji naturally learned of this history from Di Tian.
Until the battle of the Dragon God, the connection between heaven and earth was severed.
The celestial ladder was destroyed in the battle of the gods, and the energy fluctuations from its destruction swept through the worlds connected to it...
When Zi Ji hatched, she was in a bloody swamp made of the flesh and blood of her own kind, and she was able to grow by consuming the energy of the flesh and blood of her own kind.
Murasaki possesses the attributes of death, devouring, and extreme evil. Her ancestors willingly fell into becoming demonic dragons, and their sins flow in their blood.
Murasaki's bloodline is incomplete; she does not know her exact origins, has no past, only the present and the future.
After countless years, she finally exhausted the energy of the blood pool, survived the heavenly tribulation, and gained 100,000 years of cultivation. She flew out from the dark underground and headed straight for the core area of the star pool.
The first powerful being she encountered was Di Tian.
The first impression was terrible—powerful, yet lifeless and utterly desolate, fueled by an instinctive hatred emanating from the depths of his bloodline.
"Old man, who are you trying to fool with that half-dead look!" The hot-blooded young Lady Ziji challenged him without hesitation.
The result, naturally, was that they were taught a lesson.
However, Di Tian was very careful with his strikes, and she only suffered minor external injuries. For a long time afterward, she sought out Di Tian to fight every day.
Xiong Jun once lamented that when he first challenged Di Tian, he was almost beaten to death and it took him tens of thousands of years to recover before he dared to challenge him again.
Each time, Zi Ji only suffered external injuries, and Bi Ji would kindly treat her (although Zi Ji thought it would heal on its own if left untreated). Di Tian would even provide combat guidance.
"Hey, Old Dragon, have you ever been outside Star Dou?"
After one battle, Murasaki gazed at the starry sky and asked, "After I defeat you, I will go out and see how big and vast this world really is."
"No," Di Tian replied at the time, "but it might just be any ordinary planet."
"You haven't even been there, yet you're making such a judgment!"
Zi Ji suddenly leaned closer, her gaze intense. "Me, Bi Ji, and so many other soul beasts live on this planet! You are one of them! To us, you are unique!"
Di Tian stared into her bright purple eyes and was speechless for a moment.
Murasaki felt a little embarrassed by his gaze and looked away first.
Later, Di Tian decided to travel, but refused her request to go with him.
"Stay put, little dragon." He left with only these words before flapping his wings and flying away.
Zi Ji could hear the smile in his voice.
She desperately wanted to catch up, but she knew she was not strong enough, and that there might be unknown horrors hidden on this planet.
After a long wait, Di Tian finally returned, wounded, but his eyes were no longer as silent as before.
He recounted his travel experiences, and Zi Ji listened intently, secretly thinking to herself: I have fallen in love with this old dragon.
"...Old Dragon, do you still want a partner?"
One day, she mustered her courage and asked with a touch of shyness, "Um... I think Brigitte is pretty good too... Anyway, if you don't agree, I'll keep getting stronger until I can defeat you!"
Di Tian was silent at first, then chuckled as if he had heard something funny.
"Shut up!" Zi Ji slapped him with her claws in annoyance.
"How old are you? You're not even 100,000 years old," Di Tian said at the time.
"I...I've known you for fifty thousand years!"
Murasaki argued, "I don't know exactly how old I am, but... I'm way past the age where I can have children..."
"Di Tian, my name is Zi Ji. This is the name I gave myself. Remember it."
She stared intently into his golden eyes and solemnly declared.
"Di Tian, I'm serious." After that, Zi Ji finally got her wish and became Di Tian's second partner.
Time passed slowly, and fifty thousand years quietly went by. Zi Ji could sense that ever since Di Tian brought Huo Yutong back to the core area of the Star Dou, this old dragon had quietly changed.
He was still himself, but a new life seemed to have been injected into the depths of his soul.
He was an old-fashioned, stubborn man. Just like the previous meetings of the ferocious beasts in the core area, on the surface they were discussing things together, but in reality he had already made his decision. He was just going through the motions to inform everyone.
The Demon King was much smarter than Xiong Jun and the Red King, and often helped her guide those two fools' ideas toward Di Tian's line of thinking.
Brigitte understood perfectly and always offered her silent support.
However, Di Tian himself was filled with countless thoughts, but he could only utter less than 11% of them. Sometimes, he even said things he didn't mean, and he always seemed to get stuck on inexplicable issues...
He knew better than anyone else that the Silver Dragon King was not the Dragon God.
The night was as cold as frost, quietly creeping into Zi Ji's cave.
Zi Ji leaned lazily against Di Tian's chest as Di Tian recounted the amusing stories of teaching the soul beasts to read and write, his tone tinged with a hint of disappointment.
As they talked, Zi Ji adjusted to a more comfortable position and nestled against Di Tian.
Di Tian gently embraced her: "We have spent a long time together, and we have endless years to come."
Yes, the ferocious beasts have lived for too long, their thinking has become rigid, as if they have been living in the past.
Although human lifespan is as short as that of a mayfly, we are always moving forward, with our vision becoming increasingly lofty.
The things that the soul beasts did 100,000 years ago are still the same today; in contrast, the human world has undergone a complete transformation.
This gap made Murasaki, who had been to the human world, feel a sense of urgency, but it also aroused her competitive spirit.
Difficult? She loves challenges!
"Di Tian," Zi Ji suddenly rolled over, pinning Di Tian beneath her, her hands bracing herself on either side of him, her purple eyes locked tightly on his golden gaze.
"Believe me, look at me! One day, I will be with you, and we will reach that 'sky' you've been longing for!"
Di Tian didn't say anything, but responded with action, kissing her... Their shadows were cast on the stone wall, constantly changing... Gradually transforming from humans into dragons... Their dragon tails were tightly intertwined.
Di Tian, if one day you decide to kill the Silver Dragon King, I will be with you, I will stay with you.
