Heaven's Devourer Chapter 1315: Two Great Revered Dragons

Wu Yu was not very happy.
Why should the Tian Ming Dragon Lord, who he had defeated, get his wish of 10,000 years?
The loser should not get the winner's prize. Even if the winner did not need it.
But when he looked at the Sky Will Dragon King's expression, he knew that he supported this, although it might be bending the rules.
Wu Jun said, "They are a powerful force. Getting these prizes is already enough for us. Be a little more open. Don't press it."
Wu Yu nodded. "All right." Since he had already gotten the Floating Dreams Sword, he could not be bothered with the Tian Ming Dragon Lord.
Besides, there were also 10 destinable immortal talismans and 10 destinable immortal medicines, five of which were Genesis Mystical Pills. There were also three Immortal Lord Realm techniques. There were precious quintessences, immortal kernels, and immortal essences, all of which had 1,000 spiritual marks or more. Of course, most important was the destinable immortal treasure, the Floating Dreams Sword.
Finally, the Sky Will Dragon King said, "I have consulted the two revered dragons. This suggestion does not adhere to the rules of the Immortal Dragon Imperial Realm. It is not valid."
The mystical dragons sighed, and the Sky Chariot Dragon King was angered anew. But Wu Yu was pleasantly surprised. He had thought that the Sky Will Dragon King would decide everything.
With this, the Dragon Emperor's Purgatory came to a full close. The mystical dragons could leave now.
Wu Yu, of course, also wanted to go back quickly. He wanted to explore the mystery of the Floating Dreams Sword and the white dragon scale.
One word from the Sky Will Dragon King, and they could leave.
However, at this time, he suddenly turned serious and called, "Sky Heart Tribe's mystical dragons, join me in paying respects. I present the Empyrean Revered Dragon and the Fire Mark Revered Dragon!"
There was general surprise that the two revered dragons, who had observed from the shadows, would suddenly want to reveal themselves after things had concluded!
All of the mystical dragons prostrated themselves on the ground, and even Wu Yu took a knee. After all, these were the greatest experts of the mystical dragon tribe. Wu Yu guessed that they had surpassed the Great Void Immortal Realm and were Eternal Immortal Emperors of legend!
They were the most fearsome beings in the entirety of the sky palaces, the elite immortals that the Yan Huang Ancient Emperor had spoken of!
They, too, had perhaps mistaken the immortal behind Wu Yu.
"Rise."
Above in the skies, a powerful voice rang out. Only then did the mystical dragons lift their heads.
When Wu Yu lifted his, he felt his neck being pressed down. So revered dragons could not be looked at directly. He saw that there was a beast's vague presence amidst white clouds. That should be the Empyrean Revered Dragon, from the Sky Heart Tribe. The other half of the sky was covered in flames. It was the Fire Mark Revered Dragon from the Burning Life Tribe!
Actually, things would normally have ended here, and the two revered dragons would not have shown themselves. Unless there was some problem with the trial, some skulduggery? The dragon kings and dragon lords were suspicious.
Wu Yu could not lift his head, and Luo Pin was by his side. Both were in human form, and she reached out a petite hand to hold Wu Yu's. He could sense her anxiety. Wu Yu himself could guess that their appearance had something to do with him.
Could it be that they knew he had obtained the white dragon scale?
Or had they seen through Wu Yu, and knew there was no immortal behind him?
Or did they know the Great Sage, Heaven's Equal?
After all, they were the highest level beings.
There were many wild guesses running through his mind.
He could even sense that both revered dragons were looking at him.
"What is the will of the two revered dragons?" the Sky Will Dragon King asked.
One amiable voice said, "There is something we wish to ask Wu Yu."
Shock all around. So it was about Wu Yu! The revered dragons' appearance made even Wu Jun nervous.
"Revered dragons, please speak." Wu Yu was very brave. Although he could not lift his head, he still dared to speak.
The friendly voice must have come from the Empyrean Revered Dragon. He asked, "Your mystique. Which being from the Heavenly Palace is it?"
Wu Yu held his breath. "Esteemed revered dragon, I do not know myself. All this time, I have been trying to find clues. Otherwise, I would not have come to the Immortal Dragon Imperial Realm after ascending."
He refused to admit it.
This was also a gamble.
Against such mighty beings in the sky palaces, his frail power would have to be gambled. He gambled that these two revered dragons would also fear the immortal backing him, and would not dare to do anything to him.
"It seems like that immortal does not wish to be exposed," the Empyrean Revered Dragon said.
He seemed content not to pursue further.
"Let me ask you a second question." This was a much rougher voice, probably the Fire Mark Revered Dragon.
He asked, "You are not an immortal, but some sort of twisted immortal beast. You even have the aura of a demon immortal and ghostly immortal. Let me ask you, do you know what manner of immortal beast you are? By my knowledge, I have never seen your like within the sky palaces before."
These words brought great alarm. Who would have thought that Wu Yu was not an immortal, but an immortal beast? Not even the dragon kings had been able to tell. Thinking back, that golden Immortal Ape was definitely not an immortal beast, but the black beast was! Only, they had been preoccupied with other matters.
Wu Yu could only go with the flow. He replied, "Esteemed revered dragon, I also do not know what manner of immortal beast I am. But perhaps that is the reason the immortal chose me."
His words sought to throw them into confusion. If they feared the immortal in the shadows, they would hesitate to interrogate him, for fear of offending that immortal. After all, this was the sky palaces. The mystical dragon tribe was an excellent placed tribe, but the sky palaces were ultimately controlled by the immortals.
Those beings at the top were not beings that the Nine Great Dragon Emperors could compare with. For example, the Jade Emperor, the Queen Mother of the West, the Great Emperor of Middle Heaven North Star, the Old Man of the South Pole, the Celestial Venerable of the Primordial Beginning, the Heavenly Lord of Spiritual Treasures, the Grand Supreme Elderly Lord, and many others.[1]
This reply also walked a tightrope.
After Wu Yu replied, the two revered dragons fell silent, probably conferring amongst themselves.
The crowd was still very tense, as was Wu Yu. If they were just a little bold, he could be finished. The Immortal Dragon Imperial Realm was no easy place to get along with.
Finally, the Empyrean Revered Dragon spoke.
He said, "Wu Yu, our kind have no ill intention against you. But our mystical dragon tribe has our own rules. Do you know them?"
"I am willing to listen," Wu Yu said. He had spoken very politely. This meant that they were afraid of the immortal behind him.
At least his life was probably not in danger.
The Sky Chariot Dragon King was listening with great anticipation, and while hearing the courteous tone of the two revered dragons, his heart went cold. Yet still he listened eagerly to what the revered dragons would say.
The Empyrean Revered Dragon said, "We know of your relationship with the little dragon Luo Pin. Our mystical dragon tribe indeed has a precedent of marriage with superb immortals. Immortals are the most influential within the sky palaces. However, my tribe has virtually no precedent of intermarriage with other immortal beasts. That is because other immortal beasts are like rivals to us. Our immortal dragon tribe is the foremost race amongst immortal beasts. We are unwilling to let our tribe intermarry with immortal beasts. Before, I had thought you were an immortal. I was surprised that you are an immortal beast. That makes things different. As for my tribe, we have never given immortal beasts Immortal Dragon Imperial Decrees before. Therefore, I will take back your Immortal Dragon Imperial Decree."
Wu Yu had not expected this turn of events. Otherwise, he would not have shown the Heaven Devouring Titanic Beast body, even at the cost of defeat. The Heaven Devouring Titanic Beast body was indeed considerably more powerful.
Immortals and immortal beasts were treated differently.
But that was understandable. The mystical dragon tribe was proud. There were many immortals, and they governed the sky palaces. They had to submit. But amongst the immortal beasts, the mystical dragon tribe was the foremost tribe. Other immortal beasts were competitors. Therefore, those like the phoenixes and qilins were all rivals. That was why the mystical dragon tribe could accept immortals, but not other immortal beasts.
The Fire Mark Revered Dragon said, "This Dragon Emperor Purgatory has ended. You may pack your things and leave. Hereon, you are not allowed to enter the Immortal Dragon Imperial Realm, or have special relations with Luo Pin. This is not the mortal domain. Your affinity has been severed. We have already set these rules, and must abide by them to answer to the tribe. We are not purposely breaking you apart, but your union indeed violates the rules of our tribe."
These words were like lightning bolts that struck Wu Yu and Luo Pin.
The other mystical dragons, especially those from the Three Great Empires, finally showed some laughter. Change is the only constant, the wheel of fortune turns. Wu Yu had held the upper hand until a moment ago, and now he was in trouble. Even the injured Tian Ming could not help but laugh.
"How fate pays back! Haha!" Tian Ming snickered.
"Get out of the Immortal Dragon Imperial Realm! Rotten immortal beast!"
The mystical dragon tribe indeed looked down on other immortal beasts. They were the undisputed leaders, and would not abase themselves.
Many other mystical dragons finally smiled, their sullen faces cast aside.
The grimmer Wu Yu's face got, the more smug they felt.
This change shocked Wu Yu. Wu Jun and the others had also not known that Wu Yu was an immortal beast. Therefore, they had not considered this point.
But actually, Wu Yu was not an immortal beast. The Heaven Devouring Titanic Beast was a Spirit of the Universe. But it was evidently difficult to tell apart now, and he could not accurately say what he was either.
But they had put him down as an immortal beast....
"Wu Yu, if you meet your master, let your master know that the mystical dragon tribe sends their greetings, and asks for his understanding. Besides that, the rewards of the Dragon Emperor's Purgatory were earned by your own efforts. They belong to you. We will give you five days' time. In five days, do not appear in the Immortal Dragon Imperial Realm again," the Empyrean Revered Dragon said.
They had made their decision.
Wu Jun quelled his anger and frustration. Their hands were also tied. Rules were rules, and could not be broken.
Wu Yu held tightly onto Luo Pin's hand, fingers interlaced. At this time, Luo Pin suddenly said, "Revered dragons, I wish to ask. You said before that we had ‘virtually’ no precedent of intermarriage with other immortal beasts. ‘Virtually’ implies that there are precedents?"
She was still thinking calmly.
Ye Qianning seemed to recall something. She said, "That's right! I recall that 700,000 years ago, there was a Dark Wing Phoenix King who married one of our dragon lords. He even held a marriage ceremony in the Sky Heart Tribe, and the Dark Wing Phoenix King was given an Immortal Dragon Imperial Decree. He worked on our behalf for many years, until the dragon lord came to an unfortunate cultivation accident and died. Only then did the Dark Wing Phoenix King return to the Eternal Phoenix Tribe. He must be an Eternal Immortal Emperor by now?"
Her memory was good. After all, this was a very romantic story. Besides her, many other dragon kings also recalled this. She was not making things up.
"This...." The Empyrean Revered Dragon was stumped.
1. The Queen Mother of the West is the wife of Jade Emperor. The Three Pure Ones are the highest gods in the Taoist pantheon, made up of the Celestial Venerable of the Primordial Beginning (Jade Pure One), the Heavenly Lord of Spiritual Treasures (Supreme Pure One), and the Grand Supreme Elderly Lord (Grand Pure One).
