"Can you help Dream Scar recover now? I beg you, she's my only family. If you can help me escape the Primeval Troll's control, you can definitely help her too. Long Chen, I beg you …"
Yi Xue looked at Long Chen.
Her eyes were still glistening with tears …
Long Chen suddenly realized that these two were not young. However, on the path of cultivation, as long as one could maintain a vigorous progress, age was not very important.
At least to them, they were still young.
He recalled that when Dream Scar had fainted, her eyes had also turned black.
He felt much more at ease. "After I save her, I still have many questions to ask you."
Yi Xue nodded gratefully. "You've saved us, so you're our benefactor. We will definitely tell you everything we know."
That was enough.
Long Chen used the fire of life to burn Dream Scar's body. He could see that her wounds were rapidly healing, and her injured skin had returned to its perfect state. It was hard to imagine that her tender skin would turn into a body of steel.
Long Chen had made some preparations.
At that moment, Dream Scar suddenly opened her eyes.
They were black.
She jumped up immediately, looking around cautiously. She immediately saw Long Chen and Yi Xue. She quickly stood in front of Yi Xue, her black eyes filled with murderous intent staring at Long Chen. "Who are you?" she asked in a low voice.
Yi Xue hurriedly hugged her slender waist from behind and laughed tenderly in her ear, "Meng Hen, you're already naked, why do you still care who the others are? Hurry up and put on your clothes, they're going to see everything."
"Okay."
Dream Scar looked down, and her expression became very strange. She was angry, embarrassed, and unprecedentedly shy. Her movements were very fast, and in the blink of an eye, she had covered her exposed body and changed her clothes. It was still that ugly black robe.
During this process, she seemed to remember everything that had happened. She frowned and looked at Yi Xue in disbelief. "Yi Xue, we … we escaped the Primeval Troll's control."
"Yes, Dream Scar, we're free."
Yi Xue wrapped her arms around her waist, and the two of them hugged each other tightly. The curves of her chest were squeezed out of shape.
Meng Hen was still in disbelief. She stared blankly at Long Chen, her eyes filled with tears. She bit her lips and wiped them away, regaining her cold demeanor. She pulled Yi Xue out of her embrace and looked at Long Chen. "We fought before, but it wasn't of our own volition. Now, you've saved us. Thank you, I can't thank you enough."
From the looks of it, his decision was not wrong.
"Dream Scar, he's our benefactor. I have to tell him everything I know."
Although Yi Xue had fully recovered and was no longer in the state where she had been severely injured when she first fell, it was still not easy to move around on this gravitational star. She brought Dream Scar to sit on the star and beckoned to Long Chen. "Come over here."
Long Chen obeyed and sat down beside them.
Yi Xue smiled slyly. "Hey, you've seen my Dream Scar naked. Aren't you going to take responsibility? You can be the first person who dares to take advantage of her."
Dream Scar's body tensed up. "Yi Xue."
"Alright, hee hee, no one wants you, old lady."
Yi Xue laughed a few times. Seeing that Long Chen didn't have any reaction, she felt bored and said, "Ask whatever you want."
Long Chen's entire mind was focused on the matter of the Devil Star, so even the two beauties could hardly distract him. He had worked hard for so many years just so that he could learn more at this moment. Hence, he asked, "You should all know about my father's matter. I want to know why he broke the seal of the Devil Star and brought you, the devils who were controlled, to the Dragon God Domain. I hope you can tell me all the details."
"Let me think about your father." Yi Xue tilted her head.
"I know," Dream Scar said suddenly.
"Then you tell me," Yi Xue said.
"Mm."
Dream Scar looked at Long Chen and said, "Back then, your father had probably reached the peak of the Samsara realm. He was a half-step away from becoming a god. He was invincible, and no one on the Devil Star was a match for him. In order to take that last step, he traveled the world but couldn't find the answer. In the end, he came to the Devil Star. The outermost seal of the Devil Star can only be entered, not exited. Except for demons who had nowhere else to go, no one dared to enter. But he did."
Long Chen listened carefully.
Dream Scar continued, "After he entered, he met us, who were influenced by the will of the Primeval Troll. We originally pursued the Dao of Freedom, and wanted to use a method that didn't require us to pass the eighteen tribulations to become a god. But under the influence of the Primeval Troll, we became their puppets. Of course, there's a time limit. The Primeval Troll awakens one after another, and the Primeval Troll that influenced our will is called 'Ta'.
"'Ta' awakens once every tens of thousands of years. Every time he awakens, he uses his will to influence everyone on the Devil Star. You might not know this, but we also have descendants on the Devil Star. Most of our descendants don't cultivate the Devil Dao, but no matter what cultivation method they use, they're still influenced by 'Ta'. Yi Xue and I were born on the Devil Star, but we chose to become a demon. That's because only by becoming a demon can we avoid the eighteen tribulations and gain eternal life. That's equivalent to becoming a god. Of course, becoming a demon isn't easy, so Yi Xue and I are the lucky ones on the Devil Star."
He hadn't talked about Long Qinglan yet, but Dream Scar wasn't the kind of person who liked to talk nonsense. Long Chen only knew one thing.
"Because Ta awakens every tens of thousands of years, sometimes ten thousand years, or even thousands of years, there will be some newly born life forms on the Devil Star that are as normal as we are now. Or after tens of thousands of years, they will naturally awaken from Ta's control. When your father arrived there, it was the time when the controlled faction and the awakened faction were fighting. To be more precise, it was the time when the controlled faction was chasing after the awakened faction."
Now, it was time to reach the end.
Long Chen absolutely believed that Long Qinglan wasn't someone who deliberately stirred up trouble. His goal from the start was to find the path to godhood.
"In reality, your father approved of our methods of cultivation. It's just that our auras are similar to the Primeval Troll's, and we even have a common origin. That's why we were sent to the Devil Star. He took care of the awakened faction, helped them defeat their opponents, and became good friends with them. Then, it seems that the Eternal Dragon Emperor heard the awakened faction's pleas and asked him to take them away from here, so that they could truly obtain freedom. At that time, everyone from the awakened faction knelt on the ground and begged for his help …"
It was obvious that Dream Scar respected Long Qinglan very much.
Long Chen could also imagine the struggle in Long Qinglan's heart at that time. There were so many people in front of him begging him to save them, begging him to grant them freedom and let them leave the Devil Star. On the other hand, he was naturally worried that they would bring danger to others once they left.
"In the end, he agreed, right?" Long Chen said somewhat woodenly. "Yes, he was very noble.
He told the fifteen Dragon Emperors that he was researching the path to godhood with some of his friends on the Devil Star, and convinced the fifteen Dragon Emperors to obtain the five dragon balls. In reality, he just wanted to help us leave the Devil Star. I forgot to tell you that although the seal on the Devil Star only allows entry and not exit, it can't stop the Eternal Dragon Emperor. He can enter and leave freely, but he can't take people away. But in the end, he used the five dragon balls to remove the outermost part of the seal on the Devil Star, allowing the awakened faction to leave the Devil Star. Because most of them were humans, he brought them to the Dragon God Domain. I think he was still a little worried about our methods of cultivation. After all, demons have never had a good reputation. "
"What happened after that? Why did the demons massacre the humans? So it was because of you guys."
Long Chen asked somewhat agitatedly. He really couldn't tolerate it. Long Qinglan had done all of this out of good intentions. He was such a good person, so why did such a disaster happen to him, making him pay such a price in the face of so many people begging for help? Long Chen could imagine that if it were him, he would also choose to save them.
After all, the Devil Star was in such a miserable state.
Dream Scar shook her head and said helplessly, "Actually, it wasn't a problem with our methods of cultivation. The awakened faction spent half a year in the Dragon God Domain without any problems. At that time, I think the Eternal Dragon Emperor also trusted his friends without worry. But what he didn't expect, and what the awakened faction didn't expect, was that after half a year, 'Ta' actually woke up."
Long Chen stared at her, waiting for her to tell him what had happened after that.
Even your father was remembered. When Ta woke up, he released his will. Although he was so far away and had even escaped to the Dragon God Domain, the awakened faction was still affected. Even the Eternal Dragon Emperor was affected. This was something they didn't expect. They didn't expect Ta's will to be so terrifying. The Eternal Dragon Emperor left everyone in the Dragon God Domain in order to control them before any accidents happened. However, when Ta woke up, he just so happened to be attacked by Ta's will. He could only resist, and by the time he defeated Ta's will, the demons were wreaking havoc in the Dragon God Domain. The tragedy was also caused. Under grief, pain, and self-blame, he could only send the demons back to the Devil Star and seal them again. "
This series of words was incomparably heavy for Long Chen, but his eyes were still brimming with tears. This was the truth, this was his father.
