Chapter 1051: Yuan Shi Accuses Huang Long

“Do you want me to go and kneel in welcome?” Huang Long asked indifferently.
“Yes, master. This kid is even more arrogant than during the Peach Festival, shouting for you to go and kneel in welcome right away!” Pi Long was furious. “I almost couldn’t hold back from slapping him!”
Huang Long smiled upon hearing this. “Then why didn’t you slap him?!”
Guang Chengzi was the top disciple of the Chan Sect and the strongest among its current disciples. Though not as powerful as the demon master Kunpeng, he had reached the mid-stage of the twelfth era. Meanwhile, Pi Long was only at the late stage of the sixth era.
With a resentful expression, Pi Long said, “I held back because I saw that he was the master-disciple pair with our master in his past life.”
Huang Long chuckled.
This rascal dragon really put it nicely.
“Alright, let’s go now. You don’t need to hold back later—just smash him!” Huang Long said with a smile before standing up.
Hearing this, Pi Long opened his mouth. “Huh? Really smash him?”
Seeing Huang Long heading outside the palace, Pi Long didn’t hesitate and rushed after him.
Since Su Shan and the others were cultivating, only Pi Long and Thunder Beast followed Huang Long outside.
Not long after leaving the Two Immortals Palace, Huang Long saw Guang Chengzi standing high in the sky on a cloud, holding a scroll that resembled golden silk. That was undoubtedly Yuan Shi’s decree.
Seeing Huang Long and his companions emerge, Guang Chengzi sneered.
“Master!” Huang Long’s semi-saint subordinates rushed forward to pay their respects upon seeing him.
“Get up!” Huang Long told them to stand, then approached Guang Chengzi. “Speak. What does Yuan Shi want you to convey?”
“Huang Long, how bold you are!” Guang Chengzi’s expression darkened upon hearing Huang Long call Yuan Shi by name. He flew into a rage. “To dare call your teacher by name is sheer treason!”
In truth, Huang Long had been reborn, and everything from his past life had been severed with his rebirth. Yuan Shi could only be considered his teacher from his past life. Now that Huang Long had achieved sainthood, it was perfectly acceptable for him to call Yuan Shi by name.
“Tch! Treason? Teacher? That so-called teacher—how did Yuan Shi treat our master back in your Pan Gu Chan Sect? And how did you all treat our master?!” Pi Long glared angrily. “Is Yuan Shi even worthy of being our master’s teacher?!”
Over these days in Pan Gu, Pi Long had learned somewhat about how Huang Long was treated in the Chan Sect before. He had always resented it for Huang Long. Now, seeing Guang Chengzi scold Huang Long with such arrogance, he could no longer contain his anger.
“You!” Guang Chengzi snapped in fury. “Damn you!” His eyes flashed coldly as he sent a palm strike at Pi Long.

Guangchengzi thrust his palm straight at Pili Dragon, whose expression changed instantly. But at that very moment, Huanglong casually waved his sleeve, dissipating the power of Guangchengzi’s palm strike without a trace. Guangchengzi felt as if he had been struck in the chest by a giant hammer; with a muffled cry, he kept retreating until he finally stopped in front of a sacred mountain behind him.

“My men’s fate isn’t up for you to decide—not even Yuanshi can do that!” Huanglong said indifferently. “Speak up. What did Yuanshi send you here for? If it’s nothing, get lost!”

Guangchengzi stopped and stared at Huanglong in horror. It seemed now that he truly recognized Huanglong’s true strength! Before coming here, acting on Yuanshi’s orders, he had arrived at Erxian Mountain full of arrogance, hoping to suppress Huanglong and avenge himself from the Peach Festival. But he never expected Huanglong’s strength to far exceed his estimates!

“Fine, Huanglong. I hope you’ll still be as arrogant when you go to Biyou Palace and see your master!” After his expression shifted, Guangchengzi pulled out Yuanshi’s decree. “Huanglong, kneel down and listen to your master’s decree!”

“Kneel?” Huanglong sneered. Even now, Guangchengzi still tried to use Yuanshi to pressure him.

Seeing Huanglong still standing there, along with Pili Dragon and Leiting Beast looking at him like a clown, Guangchengzi grew furious. But in the end, he wisely held back and began reading out Yuanshi’s decree: “You wretched Huanglong! At the Peach Festival, you ignored brotherhood, showed no respect for hierarchy, and attacked your own peers. Return to Biyou Palace immediately to atone for your crimes!”

After finishing reading, knowing Huanglong wouldn’t kneel to accept the decree, Guangchengzi sent it toward Huanglong with both hands. With a cold snort, he waved his sleeve and vanished into the sky on a cloud.

When Yuanshi’s decree reached Huanglong, he glanced at it briefly. Instantly, storm clouds gathered around him, and golden rays shot into the sky. At the Peach Festival, he had let Chisengzi go, only for him to go back and complain to Yuanshi!

“Ignoring brotherhood? Attacking my own peers?!” Huanglong burst into laughter. At the Peach Festival, it was Chisengzi who wanted to kill him first—Yuanshi must have known that. Yet now, he was being blamed instead?!

“Yuanshi, am I really that unwelcome in your eyes?!” A cold glint appeared in Huanglong’s eyes as a golden beam shot out. Yuanshi’s decree began to burn like the demon master Kunpeng, disappearing from existence.

“Master, Yuan Shi is really outrageous! Damn it, he’s even accusing you of crimes!” Pi Long snapped angrily. “Let’s storm Biyou Palace now. I want to ask Yuan Shi if his head’s been kicked by a donkey—how can he not distinguish right from wrong?”
“Exactly!” Thunder Beast also roared in anger. “Let’s go to Biyou Palace right now!”
Yellow Dragon raised his hand.
The two stopped.
“You two don’t need to go. I’ll go,” Yellow Dragon said solemnly.
That was good. This trip to Biyou Palace was the perfect chance to completely resolve the karma from his past life with the Chan School and Yuan Shi.
In fact, distorting the truth and siding with Chi Jingzi like this was something that often happened in his past life as well.
Back then, Yuan Shi had always held a prejudice against Yellow Dragon just because he was a dragon!
Yuan Shi despised those who hatched from feathers and scales the most. In the words of Guangchengzi and others, it was your poor background to blame.
Back then, Yuan Shi took Yellow Dragon as his disciple only because he hadn’t explicitly stated that he wouldn’t accept those from the scaled clans when opening his school, so he had no choice but to accept Yellow Dragon.
It was originally a wrong fate.
“Master, let us go with you. I promise I won’t act impulsively. I’ll do whatever you say,” Pi Long said anxiously when he heard Yellow Dragon wouldn’t take him.
Thunder Beast also spoke up in agreement.
“No need!” Yellow Dragon said firmly.
This time, he was going to Biyou Palace to settle the karma and grudges from his past life with Yuan Shi. It would be inappropriate to bring Pi Long and the other with him.
Hearing Yellow Dragon’s resolute tone, Pi Long and Thunder Beast didn’t dare say anything more.
Yellow Dragon gave them a few instructions, then his entire body flashed with golden light as he disappeared from sight.
After countless cycles of life and death over millions of years, Yellow Dragon was finally about to set foot on Kunlun Island again to face Yuan Shi once more! Looking in the direction of Kunlun Island, Yellow Dragon’s expression remained indifferent.
