Chapter 0376: Entering the Ancestral Dragon Pool

The Four Seas Mansion.
Bradd looked at Huang Long with a strange expression and said, “Young master, are you planning to challenge Bishop in the next interdimensional war?!” Bradd only learned about Huang Long’s plan to challenge Bishop when he accompanied him to submit the trial task at the Heaven and Harmony Hall.
A hundred years ago, Huang Long had just become a high-ranking deity—how could he dare challenge such an unparalleled powerhouse?! No wonder Bradd looked so puzzled.
Bradd considered himself strong, ranking among the top among unparalleled powerhouses, but compared to Bishop, he still fell short. After all, Bishop was the eldest of the Ruining family, the foremost family in the Netherworld. His strength was so great that, aside from the supreme deities, few in the Netherworld could surpass him.
“Heh, then what do you think of my fight against Bishop?” Huang Long asked with a smile, noticing Bradd’s expression.
Bradd hesitated. “Young master, do you really want to hear my opinion?”
Huang Long nodded.
“You’ll lose, without a doubt!” Bradd shook his head.
Although his newly recognized master had constantly surprised and baffled him with his mysteries—sometimes even keeping even him in the dark—no matter what secrets Huang Long had or how much he trained, it was impossible for him to become an unparalleled powerhouse within ten thousand years, let alone defeat Bishop.
Hearing Bradd’s words, Huang Long instead smiled.
He had expected Bradd to respond that way.
Bishop, an unparalleled powerhouse? Huang Long sneered inwardly.
Seeing Huang Long smile after hearing his answer, Bradd was surprised and puzzled. Could the young master really be confident? But then he shook his head again. Even if the young master was the son of the Supreme God and had his support, it was still impossible for him to defeat Bishop within ten thousand years.
“And what about the Wind and Thunder Pearl? Do you know anything about it?” Huang Long remembered the task assigned by the family at the Heaven and Harmony Hall and asked Bradd.
As an unparalleled powerhouse who had lived for over a dozen eras, Bradd should know.
Sure enough, Bradd nodded. “I know.” Then he frowned. “But young master, finding this Wind and Thunder Pearl will likely be quite difficult.”
“Oh, why?” Huang Long asked in surprise.
“It originates from a mysterious place in the Netherworld—the Sea of Wind and Thunder,” Bradd explained.
“The Sea of Wind and Thunder?” Huang Long looked at him skeptically.
“Yes. It’s located near the Nether Sea, at the border between the Nyaa Continent and the Nether Sea, in Huyuan Mansion. It’s in the far north of Haiyuan Mansion, where winds and thunder rage all year round,” Bradd said.
“Winds and thunder rage there?” Huang Long pondered. “Do you mean it’s very dangerous?”

“If the young master goes, with me by his side, there should be no danger. However, although this Wind-Thunder Pearl comes from the Sea of Wind and Thunder, it’s not easy to find,” said Bradd. “Even the most powerful warriors would return empty-handed if they lack the right opportunity.”
Huang Long nodded.
At that moment, the guards of the mansion came in and reported, “Young Master Huang Hai, Young Masters Chester and Fat Francis have arrived and are waiting outside the hall.”
Hearing that Chester and Fat Francis had come, Huang Long smiled and said to Bradd, “Let’s go. I’ll take you out to meet these two clowns.” With Bradd’s puzzled look, he led him out of the back yard. As soon as they reached outside the hall, they heard someone say, “Brother Huang Hai has made a huge splash upon returning! He even knocked Daniel down with a single punch! Haha, that’s great! I’ve always disliked Fei De and the Daniels, but I never dared to take action. Now Brother Huang Hai has given me some satisfaction!”
Huang Long smiled at that fat guy.
It was indeed Fat Francis’s voice.
Then, Huang Long led Bradd into the hall. When Fat Francis saw Huang Long, he stopped talking, stood up, and laughed loudly, “Haha, Brother Huang Hai, you’re finally back!”
Chester said gloomily, “What do you mean ‘finally back’? It’s not like Brother Huang Hai couldn’t come back.”
Fat Francis frowned slightly, looked at Huang Long, and said with a grin, “That’s not what I meant. I’m just happy.” Then he stepped forward and sized Huang Long up. “Hey, Brother Huang Hai, you’re really popular now! You’ve caused a big stir upon returning, and everyone on the streets is talking about you.”
Normally, a direct descendant breaking through to an Upper God wasn’t a big deal in the Runing family. But if it happened within a hundred years, with a descendant breaking through from the peak of a Middle God to an Upper God during a single trial, it would definitely be astonishing news. Moreover, Huang Hai had just broken through from the later stage of a Middle God to its peak before that trial.
Such a speed of cultivation was simply terrifying.
Throughout the Netherworld, there was no record of any godly warrior breaking through from the later stage of a Middle God to an Upper God in over a hundred years. Not only in the Netherworld, but even in other divine realms, such a thing had never been heard of.
On top of that, Huang Long had defeated Daniel right after breaking through to an Upper God. Daniel had been an Upper God for countless billions of years, yet Huang Long had defeated him in one strike!
Daniel was the grandson of the Grand Elder Bishop and ranked among the mid-tier members of the Runing family’s core generation, earning him some fame.

Now, news that Huang Long had defeated Daniel in one strike was being hotly discussed in every corner of the headquarters.
“Brother Huang Hai, who is this?” Chester asked, referring to Brad behind Huang Long.
At that moment, Huang Long introduced Brad to Chester and Fat Francis, saying, “Brad is a friend I met during this trial; he’s been of great help.”
Brad looked at Huang Long with gratitude. As an unparalleled warrior, if Huang Long introduced him as a guard to Chester and the others, though he wouldn’t say anything, he would still feel somewhat uncomfortable. Huang Long had shown him respect, as befits an unparalleled warrior.
“Oh, haha, so it’s Brother Brad,” Fat Francis said with a smile after hearing Huang Long’s introduction. “A friend of Brother Huang Hai is also a friend of mine, Brother Brad. If you ever need anything in the future, just come to me; I’ll help you resolve it.” Saying this, he patted his “plump” chest, causing the fat to jingle.
Huang Long shook his head, smiling inwardly. Chester rolled his eyes.
Brad smiled bitterly. Brother? When he was king in the Nimeng Mountains, his top generals were at least upper gods at the peak of the Seventh Rank of the King of the Underworld. An upper god at the Seventh Rank of the King of the Underworld? He was just one of their subordinates. Though he thought this in his heart, he said aloud, “Thank you very much, Brother Francis.”
Fat Francis was delighted upon hearing Brad’s words. “You’re too kind,” he said, then laughed heartily.
Brad glanced at Huang Long. He now understood his master’s intention—this fat man was indeed a jokester, and seemingly quite narcissistic as well.
Everyone sat down in order.
“Brother Huang Hai, I heard that you hunted down 125 Upper God Azure-Scaled Cloud Lions this time, broke through to the rank of Upper God, defeated Daniel, and even shocked the clan leader and the elders,” Chester said after sitting down, his tone filled with admiration.
“Yes, yes, Brother Huang Hai. I heard that the clan leader might want to meet you soon, and regarding your entry into the Ancestral Dragon Pool, my grandfather said it should be arranged within these days,” Fat Francis added.
Huang Long smiled. “Within these days?”
Finally, it was time to enter the Ancestral Dragon Pool! This was Huang Long’s most important goal in coming to the Runing family. However, he hadn’t expected to make successive breakthroughs even before entering the pool. It seemed his decision to come to the Runing estate had been right.
After that, the group talked for over an hour. Huang Long asked them some questions about the Ancestral Dragon Pool, and they naturally answered everything he asked.

Of course, Chester and Fat Francis were still “curious” about Bradd’s background, and from time to time they asked him some questions. Bradd had been prepared, so naturally, Chester and Fat Francis couldn’t get anything out of him.
In the end, Fat Francis insisted on dragging Huang Long along, saying that Tianxiang Pavilion should treat them.
Huang Long had no choice but to agree. After completing this trial, ascending to a higher divine rank, and capturing such an extraordinary warrior as Bradd, it was indeed time to celebrate.
It wasn’t long before Huang Long and his three companions arrived at Tianxiang Pavilion.
To their surprise, they ran into Fei De, Daniel, and a group of other young members there.
“Hehe, isn’t this Daniel? What, even my defeated subordinate has come to Tianxiang Pavilion to celebrate?” Fat Francis joked.
Fei De, Daniel, and the others looked displeased. Daniel glared at Fat Francis and said, “Fatso, say that again?!” Then he glared hatefully at Huang Long.
Having suffered a crushing defeat at Huang Long’s hands in Tianhe Hall, he had now become the laughingstock of all the direct descendants of the Luning family. Back at their residence, they were also rebuked by elders like Bishop.
In just one day, everything had changed completely.
“I told you, Daniel, what can you do to me?” Fat Francis puffed out his chest.
Before Daniel could reply, Fei De interrupted, “Enough, let’s go in!” With that, he headed straight into Tianxiang Pavilion. Daniel shot Huang Long another hateful glance before following the others.
As they passed by Huang Long, Fei De sneered coldly, “I hope you can keep laughing until the next interdimensional war.” Then he led the group into Tianxiang Pavilion.
Huang Long watched Fei De’s retreating figure, a cold glint in his eyes.
“Let’s go in too,” Huang Long said, and along with Bradd and the other two, they entered Tianxiang Pavilion.
After returning from Tianxiang Pavilion, Huang Long stayed at Sihai Residence with Bradd, not going out.
After waiting for three days, Kennedy and Donald arrived.
Of course, Kennedy and Donald praised Huang Long greatly before finally telling him about entering the Ancestral Dragon Pool.
“You’ll enter the Ancestral Dragon Pool the day after tomorrow.” Huang Long finally knew the exact date for entering the pool.
“Huang Hai, as a direct descendant of the Luning family, you only have one chance to enter the Ancestral Dragon Pool. Make the most of it,” Kennedy said earnestly, just as Donald had advised him before he entered the Tianlong Space.
Huang Long replied respectfully.
He would surely make the most of his chance to enter the Ancestral Dragon Pool!
