Dragon Tamer-Chapter 798 - 802: The Arrangement of Old Heavenly Father
Chapter 798: Chapter 802: The Arrangement of Old Heavenly Father
The Sect Seal came under rather unusual circumstances.
While herding, Zhu Minglang saw a sect called the Building Dragon Sect.
This sect was rather peculiar. Despite being down to only one doddering old man, it still enjoyed the worship of a thousand cities, and its reputation across the entire Tian Shu God Domain was surprisingly not weak.
The old man’s cultivation base was not low, being a Quasi-god; however, with the decline in members, the sect failed in one struggle after another and completely fell within just a few years.
The old man had already prepared to close the sect for good, but unexpectedly, he met the Dragon Shepherd Zhu Minglang who had come up the mountain to learn. …
Saying it was to learn was actually just an excuse to see if the Building Dragon Sect had any celestial treasures suitable for his dragon pets; as it turned out, the old man had a keen eye and saw that Zhu Minglang was a Dragon Phoenix among gods. Leaving behind the sect’s inheritance and a Sect leader seal, the old man rode a crane to the west.
Therefore, the first day Zhu Minglang climbed the mountain was also the last day for this sect.
According to Mr. Jinli’s explanation, this was also a source of divine blessing, related to the good deeds Zhu Minglang had done within the Ming God Clan’s territory.
Thus, Zhu Minglang gained a new identity, Sect Master of the Building Dragon Sect.
This renown sect now had only one person – Zhu Minglang!
The Sect leader seal is a rare item, coveted by many and invaluable, and also an extremely important symbol of identity in Tian Shu, endowed with many privileges that ordinary cultivators could not possibly have. Zhu Minglang hadn’t yet experienced what exactly they were.
“Sect Master, Sect Master, Building Dragon Sect Master, this way, please, this way, please!” As soon as he entered the city, a woman holding a large wooden sign called out loudly, waving continuously at Zhu Minglang.
Zhu Minglang looked at the woman somewhat puzzled, then glanced at the City Gate Guardian.
The Guardian smiled and said, “Saint Honor is hospitable and has requested that we set up welcome disciples in every city. The Tian Shu Leaders’ Saintly Meeting will be held in the God Country Capital soon, and since you are the Sect Master of the Building Dragon Sect, you naturally can enjoy this special reception treatment.”
“…” Zhu Minglang was at a loss for words for a moment.
Is this the privilege of a Sect Master?
To be greeted by beautiful female disciples whenever you enter a city!
Zhu Minglang had heard about the Leader’s Conference along the way.
Such conferences were usually held in Huachou Divine Nation’s Capital, but this time it was set in Xuange Country Capital.
“Could it be that Hua Chou, whom I chopped, is temporarily unwilling to show his face, so this time’s Leaders’ Conference is hosted by Xuange?” That’s what Zhu Minglang thought.
Hua Chou was definitely not demoted to a mortal.
But his situation didn’t look too bright either, as there were rumors in Tian Shu that Hua Chou was injured in the Dragon Gate and had gone into seclusion for healing.
The fact that this crucial Leader’s Conference was being held in Xuange certainly indicated what people were guessing.
Zhu Minglang was the person involved. He was the one who slashed.
In fact, he was quite curious about what condition Hua Chou was in. If Hua Chou were to be demoted to Godson or God will, then Zhu Minglang would have to carefully plan how to slay the Seven Star God!
After slaying the Seven Star God, his divine achievements should skyrocket, right? Perhaps the Old Heavenly Father would send an Immortal God Goddess or something like that to him… Oh, he had already sent one, so never mind.

“To have such a young Sect Master, is this Master Zhu’s first visit to our Xuange Divine Country?” The female disciple of Xuan Ge Temple seemed very lively.
“I’ve also recently assumed the position of Sect Master, and this is my first visit to your Divine Nation,” Zhu Minglang answered.
“At God Marquis Mansion, Lord Song God has already been drinking with a few other Sect Masters. You’ve arrived just in time: fine wine, exquisite dishes, and dancing girls to liven up the atmosphere…” the female disciple said.
So, it wasn’t an exclusive reception, just guiding him to a place.
That’s fine, that’s fine. He almost thought there was some strange rule involved, like having a personal escort along the way, which would be difficult to refuse…
Upon arrival at God Marquis Mansion, in Xuange Divine Country, the descendants of the gods had a fairly strict hierarchy, similar to a noble class: Deity Officials, Lords of Divine City, and Lords of Divine cities were considered to hold a higher status among the God Clan.
Reaching the mansion, it was largely constructed of the most luxurious Silver Rockwood, with architectural artistry far superior to Supreme Court, almost at the level of a divine temple.
Passing through the silver corridor, he arrived at a garden blooming with a hundred flowers. In the center was a white jade banquet pavilion surrounded by petals strewn about like a handwoven carpet. Numerous dancers, dressed in thin veils, swayed their soul-stirring figures, holding flowers, stepping on petals, with a fragrance wafting in the air…
There were about five or six individuals clad in expensive robes sitting in the white jade pavilion, enjoying fine wines and exquisite dishes that were very rare and precious meats, and the cooking could be considered perfect.
“This is the Sect Master of the Building Dragon Sect, who has just arrived in our city…” The female disciple performed a courtesy gesture, leading Zhu Minglang to the side of those distinguished individuals.
A crowed man stood up; he was also quite young. He smiled, greeted Zhu Minglang with a bow, and then personally came forward to welcome him, inviting Zhu Minglang to take a seat.
“Building Dragon Sect?? I remember, over a decade ago, the Building Dragon Sect made quite a splash at the holy meeting, and your Sect Master even dared to rebuke the gods!” The man with the neatly trimmed beard said.
“It’s been over a decade, eh? Outdoing the teacher is indeed overdoing. I never expected that the Building Dragon Sect would now be handed over to such a young and dignified person. Young Sect Master, how is your old Sect Master?” The man with black and white hair interlaced smiled as he asked.
It turns out that the Building Dragon Sect was indeed quite famous.
All these sect leaders actually knew…
That old coot hadn’t been deceiving him.
Zhu Minglang smiled, feeling hungry, he took a few bites of his meal, and saw no need for excessive responses, simply stating indifferently, “The old sect master passed away.”
The sect masters feigned a few sighs of sorrow, then began to reminisce about how the old sect master of the Building Dragon Sect used to be, mentioning how many young talents at Tianshu would have killed to get into the Building Dragon Sect, but the old sect master was extremely picky, accepting only a few dozen over more than a decade.
Just a few dozen…
Now, there was only Zhu Minglang left.
And he was someone who had just joined their sect on the first day.
From the conversations of the other sect masters, Zhu Minglang roughly grasped the situation of the Building Dragon Sect.
Fan Guangzhong, the sect master of Building Dragon Sect, was indeed talented; he had reached the God Child Level decades ago, and he had even fought a True God at that Saintly Meeting, defeating him and establishing the reputation of the Building Dragon Sect.
Unfortunately, Fan Guangzhong’s judgment was poor; he was extremely selective with his disciples, with less than a hundred people in the entire sect, and he had only one direct disciple. This direct disciple, who had done very well in his façade, learned all he could from Fan Guangzhong and then betrayed his teachings. Enraged, Fan Guangzhong expelled him from the sect…
As a result, this direct disciple, who understood the human heart very well, took the majority of Building Dragon Sect’s talents with him when he defected, joining the Hua Chou Divine Nation’s Sail Dragon Palace, becoming its palace lord within a few short years!
The Sail Dragon Palace was among the top Dragon Shepherd forces of Tianshu, backed by the powerful Hua Chou God Manor and, favored by Hua Chou, it thrived, securing its position as the number one Dragon Palace under Hua Chou.
The palace lord had formerly been called Fan Dongming, but now he had changed his name to Hua Dongming, having previously gone by the name Haodongming…
It seemed that with his boldness to change his surname according to his allegiance, he indeed was not faring badly.
So that old coot had such a glorious and painful past, he thought. It made sense, on the day one was almost ready for the coffin, still having a cultivation base at the Quasi-god Level, one’s past must have been legendary.
But legend is just legend; why did the burden fall on him?
And ultimately, it even involved Hua Chou; the Building Dragon Sect’s traitor had become the first palace lord within the Hua Chou God Manor.
On one hand, the Building Dragon Sect had fallen so low it had only one person left, needing to find just anyone who came up the mountain to carry on the lineage.
On the other hand, the Sail Dragon Palace was a crucial part of Tianshu’s strongest divine presence, revered and worshipped by millions of cultivators, with an exceptionally high status and an immeasurable future…
“A toast to you, for having the valor to participate in this Leaders’ Saintly Meeting—we all should drink to your courage,” said Lord Song God, laughing with a teasing tone.
Zhu Minglang didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.
It seemed that the Sail Dragon Palace would definitely participate in this Leaders’ Saintly Meeting. If these high-status individuals in Tianshu all knew about the grudge between Building Dragon Palace and Sail Dragon Palace, then his stepping into the Xuange Divine Country as a lone sect master really did seem like a fearless venture into humiliation!
Shouldn’t his merits transform into divinely granted blessings?
Zhu Minglang felt as if the Old Heavenly Father saw that he had been too lackadaisical in recent months and intentionally gave him a task with a higher degree of difficulty.
He also blamed himself for coveting the old coot’s inheritance—what was he doing, juggling being a True God with the side job of a sect master?
However, upon reflection, he didn’t see the matter as too burdensome or troublesome.
He and Hua Chou were irreconcilable, mainly because Hua Chou refused to let go of the past grievances that had started with Zhu Minglang striking him down at Sky Peak. Zhu Minglang had no choice; for the sake of his achievements as a True God, and for a peaceful life, he had to find every way to deal with Hua Chou.
This sect grudge seemed to be of some interest.
Since the Sail Dragon Palace was the first Dragon Palace of the Hua Chou God Manor, and given that Hua Dongming was now a favorite of Hua Chou, taking him down would also mean weakening Hua Chou’s alliance.
Most importantly, with this identity as a sect master, Zhu Minglang could rightfully seek to defeat Hua Dongming without revealing his True God identity prematurely. It was common knowledge that there was bad blood between their two sects, so casualties would be considered normal, and Zhu Minglang would not expose himself as a True God too soon.
“Could it be that the Old Heavenly Father also intends to remove Hua Chou and, thus, has arranged this blessed opportunity for me through the mysterious workings of fate?” Zhu Minglang pondered deeply.
Having witnessed the abilities of the Prophet Li Xinghua, especially after becoming a god and seeing the world from a completely different angle, Zhu Minglang thought this possibility was significant.
For some reason, as Zhu Minglang thought deeper into this matter, a flash of insight almost grasped at his mind.
It seemed that if he concentrated a bit harder and thought a bit deeper, the entire thread of the matter would unveil itself in his mind completely.
True God Instinct?
Had he guessed correctly?
Or perhaps, he had guessed a part of it right!
