Chapter 1057 Ch 1057: Betrayal

Pygon gestured to Ye Xiao and pointed toward the pit.

Ye Xiao nodded and arrived at the border of the pit and looked down, only to see a small pool full of pure white liquid. This liquid seemed more like milk but was more than ten times denser.

Moreover, Ye Xiao could sense a different yet very familiar aura from the pool of milky white liquid. This aura was the same as the aura of the Primordial Mark.

The moment Ye Xiao sensed this aura, the Primordial Mark on his forehead reacted and appeared, causing Ye Xiao's forehead to shine with a pure azure light.

Ye Xiao felt as if he was being called by something very attractive to dive into the pool.

He first turned to Pygon to confirm if he should take that step or not.

Seeing Pygon nodding with a smile, Ye Xiao no longer hesitated and jumped into the pool full of milky white liquid. He had thought of many kinds of reactions his body would feel the moment he would touch the milky white liquid.

However, he had never thought that the moment he touched the milky white liquid, he would fall unconscious. Even with his powerful soul, he was unable to keep himself conscious and fainted.

In fact, it would be right to say that his very soul fell asleep the moment he touched the milky white liquid.

Pygon looked at Ye Xiao and sighed. Then he turned around and saw the three old men standing. He asked: "Is it really alright for not fulfilling our promise? Anyone who completes the trial could become a Primordial, that was our promise. Is it really alright to betray someone's trust just like that? And it is him who went through many things to complete our trials and it is because of him, the Heavens is going to help us return!"

Yuan Shi De sighed and didn't say anything. He was also feeling very conflicted in his heart. He was the one who took the trial of primordial. He had a very good impression of Ye Xiao and it could be said that he really liked him as a person a lot.

However, when it come to truly becoming a Primordial, he didn't know what to do or say.

Thus, he chose to keep quiet.

On the other hand, Yuan Shan De thought for a few seconds and finally said: "Pygon, you must know what kind of race we, the Primordial Race, are. Say it yourself, is it really alright for an ordinary human to become a Primordial?"

"Ordinary?" Pygon shook his head and laughed. Then he spoke: "Senior Shan De, do you really think Ye Xiao is ordinary?"

Yuan Shan De nodded without hesitation. Then he spoke: "He wasn't previously, but he is now. He no longer has the support of Nine Ancestral Dragons or the Second Universe. He is even the enemy of Heavens. And even Queen had left him."

"Tell me, what part of him is more than ordinary?"

Finally, Yuan Shi De could not keep quiet. He looked into Yuan Shan De's eyes and spoke: "Shan De, you should know that he was able to complete the third trial even though he no longer has the support of the Queen, the Second Universe, or the Nine Ancestral Dragons. Not to mention, he even obtained the Token of Heavens' Promise. It means, even as an enemy, Heavens is with him. Then be it for only once, but it could not be denied that Ye Xiao could ask for anything from the Heavens as long as he could complete what Heavens ask him to do."

"See! Even you know he has to first complete a mission for the Heavens to make Heavens give him what he wants." Yuan Shan De shook his head and took out a point. Then he continued: "Shi De, I know you like him, but you should know that not a single outsider should become a Primordial."

"Although we don't have a weakness, however, if we let an outsider become a Primordial, it means we will be creating a weakness for ourselves!"

Yuan Shi De knew it was true, so he could not refute it.

"Stop it!"

At this moment, Yuan Ming De opened his mouth, causing Yuan Shi De and Yuan Shan De to stop. From this, it could be seen Yuan Ming De's status was higher than Yuan Shi De's and Yuan Shan De's.

Yuan Ming De spoke: "This conversation should stop here."

As Yuan Ming De spoke, he looked at Yuan Shi De and continued: "Although we are not fulfilling our promise of making him a Primordial, we did give him the Mark of Primordial that belonged to our patriarch. How valuable is our patriarch's Primordial Mark? Nothing could be compared to it!"

"Not to mention, we are letting him absorb the energy from Primordial Pool. With the help of Primordial Mark, he could absorb and improve in every direction. When he comes out, he might even break through and become an Ancient God. Moreover, after coming out from the Primordial Pool, his ability to sense and comprehend the Profound Meaning of Heavenly Laws will also increase by many times."

"These benefits could be considered compensation for not fulfilling our promise!"

This time, not a single one of them spoke anything again. They choose to stay quiet and started waiting for Ye Xiao to come out.

They had already made an excuse to explain to Ye Xiao why he failed to become a Primordial.

However, unknown to them, at this moment, inside Ye Xiao's small universe, his Divine Nascent Soul that was sitting cross-legged on top of the Domineering God Crystal had its eyes opened. It was even looking in Pygon and others' directions.

​ Its eyes seemed to be able to pierce through the layers of the small universe and see as well as hear everything they were talking about.

When they stopped talking, the Divine Nascent Soul also closed its golden pair of eyes.

Although Ye Xiao's Ancient Divine Emperor Soul was sleeping, he was still able to hear and see everything through the Divine Nascent Soul.

Ye Xiao didn't expect these people of the Primordial Race to betray him as well. He was angered and wanted to immediately wake up so that he could go out and have a "good" talk with them.

However, on second thought, he did not try to wake up his soul.

Since there were still some benefits to gain, why should he lose them? He would counter them after obtaining every bit of benefit from here.

And just like that, time started passing slowly.

.....

In a world somewhere in the Divine Realm...

_Wilderness City_

"Are we really going to face an Ancestral Dragon?" The city lord of Wilderness City asked in a trembling voice.

Lin Hao nodded his head and spoke: "This is our mission. That dragon should be here anytime soon. Although it is coming for me to get the God Slaying Sword, you all might be affected as well."

"God Slaying Sword... Is that the weapon of legend?" City Lord trembled and asked in a low voice as he realized what kind of existence was standing in front of him.

Lin Hao nodded and spoke: "There is not much time. I came here to inform you so that you could get ready and protect the citizens here. Otherwise, even the aftershock of my battle against that Nine Hell Serenity Dragon is enough to destroy the entire city!"

"City Lord, I'm going to begin. Please get ready." Lin Feng bellowed as he sensed something or maybe someone coming from a different direction. He stood and flew in the sky. After arriving at a Savage Mountain a few miles away from the Wilderness City, he roared loudly, causing the entire Savage Mountain to tremble.

The City Lord of the Wilderness and many other experts flew out to watch this shocking scene.

Lin Hao pointed at a distance and shouted. A terrifying savage and destructive aura spread out from his body.

All the experts had no choice but to use their True Essence to resist, barely managing to maintain their balance. However, they did not dare to breathe too loudly. A wave of pressure made them unable to move.

"This... Lin Hao, just who is he?"

"Why is he so powerful?"

The City Lord of the Wilderness City looked up at the sky with a face full of fear as Lin Hao pointed at the distant land in the sky, as if he was a god rebuking the heavens and earth. He was domineering and powerful.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

The terrifying aura caused the sky to change as dark clouds appeared and thunder started rumbling, making loud noises and flashing with long snake-like lightning.

"Roar!"

And it was at this moment that a dragon roar shaking the sky came from far.

Very soon, a huge dragon made its appearance in front of Lin Hao. It was extremely huge and Lin Hao was like an ant in front of its size.

However, there was not a single trace of fear in Lin Hao's eyes. He took out his God Slaying Sword and was ready to face the Nine Hell Serenity Dragon.
