After Cang Gongzi bade farewell to the two of them, he hurriedly walked to the edge of the Greater Rat Underground City.
He looked back. Although it had only been a few days, there was some nostalgia in his eyes.
In this place, the person he missed the most was not Elder Ancestor Bai, not Bai Shixin, and definitely not anyone else.
Instead, it was the Greater Rats that worked diligently on the streets. Although they did not have a noble bloodline and were incomparably humble, they represented the true future of this clan.
However, he could faintly feel that this place was rejecting and alienating him.
Whether it was the Greater Rats at the bottom or the higher-ups like Bai Shixin, they all seemed to be very polite, but in reality, they were all in awe of his power and bloodline. None of them treated him sincerely.
He could imagine that if these two things were cut off, he would be worse than a bug here, even if he was still the same person.
Thinking of this, he let out a long sigh and turned to leave the city.
At this moment, that person appeared in front of him again.
Elder Ancestor Bai looked at him with a complicated gaze.
"Now, do you understand?"
"Understand what?" Cang Gongzi looked at the old man in front of him and asked despite knowing the answer.
"Survival of the fittest, survival of the fittest, existence is reasonable."
Cang Gongzi was silent.
However, Elder Ancestor Bai did not let him go.
"If you didn't have the power, do you think Nie Yuan would have retreated just because you are my son?"
"If you didn't have the power, do you think he would believe Bai Shixin's words and wait for me to become a god before handing over the throne to you?"
"That won't happen. Any demon knows that handing the throne to a powerless descendant is the same as waiting for others to eat it."
After that, Cang Gongzi had a complicated look in his eyes. After a long while, he said, "So, you've never cared about those things in the past because you wanted me to understand this principle?"
"You only found out now?" Elder Ancestor Bai shook his head in disappointment.
"No, I already knew that. However, the law of the jungle isn't the truth, and there are many 'existences' that are inherently illogical! "Cang Gongzi's tone suddenly became serious!
"Humans and demons are both intelligent. We shouldn't kill each other. Everyone is rational, there should be a possibility of coexistence! I can be friends with many ordinary people. There's no reason why we can't live together! "
Elder Ancestor Bai looked at him deeply and suddenly laughed.
"Hehe, very good, very good. You finally found your own path. Then continue walking. I will always be watching you. "
Out of Cang Gongzi's expectation, the other party did not continue to refute him.
His mood was complicated. He stood there in a daze for a long time, as if he was pondering something.
Elder Ancestor Bai did not leave either, he only looked at him.
Finally, Cang Gongzi whispered with difficulty, "What Bai Shixin said, was it true?"
"Right now, you don't have the right to know." Elder Ancestor Bai shook his head in disappointment, as if he felt that he should not have asked this question.
Upon hearing that, Cang Gongzi's face flushed red. His body shook once again, and white gas erupted from his body, spreading in all directions.
This time, it was far more powerful than when he intimidated Nie Yuan!
Because he knew who the person in front of him was, he used his full strength!
The entire Greater Rat City was in an uproar as countless Greater Rats felt a strong pressure in their hearts!
There was not only the suppression of the bloodline and the soul, but also the shock of encountering his natural nemesis!
From afar, Cang Gongzi looked like a towering white torch.
He stared coldly at the person in front of him, as if the other party had nothing to do with him.
He said in a low voice, "Right now, do I have the right?!"
"Not bad, you've finally learned a real skill that suits you." Elder Ancestor Bai smiled as he looked at the huge torch without changing his expression.
His body moved slightly, and a pale yellow aura emerged from the top of his head.
After a while, it quickly expanded, and an equally huge pale yellow torch appeared, blocking Cang Gongzi's white gas pressure, and even suppressing it slightly.
"You," Cang Gongzi saw this, his expression changed, "You condensed the clan energy so quickly?! This is impossible … "
"You still don't know anything about true power." Elder Ancestor Bai looked at him, then suddenly retracted the pale yellow aura around him, turned around, and slowly walked away.
Cang Gongzi stared at his back, but he did not make a move.
He could not help but worry. Once the clan energy was born, the other party's strength would improve by leaps and bounds.
If it was as Bai Shixin predicted, the other party would use the return of the moon to allow the Greater Rat Clan to be officially recognized by the Heavenly Axiom of this realm, this person's strength would rapidly grow to an unbelievable level.
When that time comes, would the Venerable Dragon God still be able to deter him and stop him from causing trouble?
This person's ambition had always been huge.
He knew this very well.
With deep worry, Cang Gongzi returned to the ground without turning back.
…
Vigilante A's farm villa.
It was already the beginning of August, midsummer. The trees were lush, and flowers were in full bloom. The hardworking workers were meticulously taking care of the farm villa's chores.
At this moment, a white hamster was slowly crawling into the living room, and it heard a sour voice.
"Oh my, I heard that a certain fellow who only knows how to eat chestnuts every day is now going to become a city official … That's unbelievable."
This sour voice came from the fish tank in the living room. Who else could it be other than Dragon Carp?
When Cang Gongzi heard this familiar voice, he felt a little comforted, 'I'm finally home.'
Only here, no matter if he was a human or a demon, strong or weak, no one would look down on him.
Except for this Dragon Carp that only knew how to brag every day …
However, with his magnanimity, he would definitely not be calculative with Dragon Carp.
He looked around, and was a little confused. He crawled a few steps and jumped onto the white marble table where the fish tank was.
"Didn't Brother Dragon Carp and Brother Brett go to the Land of Heritage to cultivate? It's only been two weeks, and you're back already? Did Brother Brett have a big breakthrough? "
As the white hamster spoke, it instinctively sensed Brett the Black Dog's whereabouts, but it still could not find it.
The dog and the carp had been inseparable recently. Now that there was only one fish around, it was really strange.
"There's no need to look, I've asked Brother Brett to look for lamp oil materials. In no time, I'll be able to recover my magical energy and truly serve Master. By then, Master will definitely give me a big position. A small city official is nothing to you, sir. "Dragon Carp explained.
"You're talking about the wishing lamp that Brother Xue and Bai found in the Land of Heritage?" The white hamster asked.
"Yes, that's right. You know about it too. That's right, you joined earlier than me, it's normal that you know about it. "Dragon Carp came to a realization.
"Then I'll congratulate Brother Brett in advance, and congratulate the two of you for recovering your powers soon." The white hamster said politely.
The Dragon Carp didn't feel embarrassed at all after being praised like that. It accepted it completely.
However, after hearing the compliment, it was happy and no longer targeted Cang Gongzi.
Seeing how polite the white hamster was, it rolled its eyes and asked, "Yes, thank you for your kind words. On the other hand, City Official Cang, did you get anything good from your trip to the Underground Rat Town? You're the young master of the Greater Rat Royal Family, there should be a lot of people sending gifts to curry favor with you. "
The white hamster shook its head, "No one sent gifts. I'm just an outsider there, it's good enough that someone received me, how would I dare to ask for gifts? "
"That's fine. When you officially start the construction of the city, the people sending gifts will definitely line up a mile away, it'll annoy you to no end. I'm afraid you don't have the experience of receiving gifts, right? "Dragon Carp pointed out.
The white hamster was confused, it asked tentatively, "That's true. What advice do you have for me, Brother Dragon Carp? We're both serving under the Venerable One, there's no harm in speaking frankly. "
Dragon Carp swayed its tail and said happily, "Sigh, you're from the royal family after all, you're broad-minded. I'm in the wrong for what happened in the past, we'll forget about it. "
The white hamster nodded, it had never taken it to heart, it had always treated Dragon Carp as a talkative parrot, what was the big deal about being criticized by a parrot?
Dragon Carp took the opportunity to say, "I've worked for the True Dragon Clan's clan leader for many years, I have the most experience in receiving gifts.
"After Officer Cang Cheng takes office, can you suggest to Master to bring me along? I can also help you with the chores of welcoming and sending people off, so that you can focus on what Master has instructed you to do, and build that Morality City."
Cang Gongzi thought about it, it was true.
Thus, he said gratefully, "It's rare for Brother Dragon Carp to be so warm-hearted, I'm really grateful, I think the Venerable One will agree. However, why did Brother Dragon Carp keep calling me 'city official'? "
He was not stupid, he knew it was not a good title.
Dragon Carp said awkwardly, "Hehe, I'm really sorry. I'm used to giving people nicknames, aren't you going to be in charge of the construction of the city, and be the chief official? I'll call you City Official for short. Do you want me to give you a more prominent one? "
"No need, Brother Dragon Carp is much older than me in actual age, you can just call me Xiao Cang." The white hamster thought to himself, 'Don't give me any more prominent titles.'
Dragon Carp was very happy to hear that, it immediately said, "Alright, alright, Xiao Cang, you're really forthright. When Brother Brett brings back some lamp oil, if there's more, I'll give you a chance. "
Cang Gongzi was about to reject it out of habit, then he had an idea, he nodded and said, "I'll do as you say, thank you for your generosity, Brother Dragon Carp. However, does the Venerable One know about the search for the lamp oil? "
"Of course Master knows, how can I, Dragon Carp, not ask Master before doing something? Then I've been working as a doorman for so many years. After the lamp oil is found, half of it will be used by Master, we'll split the remaining half. "Dragon Carp said confidently.
Cang Gongzi nodded, there was knowledge everywhere.
Dragon Carp seemed to be very arrogant, but when it came to doing things, it was impeccable.
In comparison, he was too closed off in the past, and lacked practical experience. In the future, if he wanted to achieve his goal of living as a mouse and walk the path that he had chosen, he must pay attention and learn.
Immediately, the hamster and the fish communicated through the fish tank about things to pay attention to when they took office in the future.
Dragon Carp had seen a lot of people, it was really good at handling chores, it immediately explained to Cang Gongzi how to deal with different people, and how to assign different people.
However, whether it was Cang Gongzi or Bai Ruocang, none of them could guess this fellow's real purpose.
If Zheng Dao was here, he would definitely be able to tell.
This fellow had stayed in the Venerable One's house for too long, and it had not gotten any benefits for a long time, so it wanted to take the opportunity to earn some extra income.
Different from the other followers, although Dragon Carp was loyal to Vigilante A, it was much more selfish.
After all, it had the blood of a True Dragon, and it should not be forgotten that it was from the same clan as Sir System …
Dragon Carp was not like the Black and Yellow Dogs.
As long as the two of them had a canine girl who understood them, and could eat well, they would be very satisfied. They did not desire power, nor would they care about money, they had never asked for a salary.
It was also not like Zheng Dao and Cang Gongzi, who both had lofty goals and ideals in life. They followed the Venerable One to realize the value of life.
Dragon Carp was very different, it was very greedy.
Back then, when it was guarding the lotus pond in the True Dragon Clan Leader's house, if its status was not high enough, they would have to first throw some treasures into the pond to make a wish …
After the two animals talked for a while, Cang Gongzi asked curiously, "Brother Dragon Carp, why did you want to use that magic lamp? I heard that the material for the lamp oil is very rare and hard to find. "
"Haha, that's for other people. Back then, I've collected countless rare materials," Dragon Carp immediately boasted, "If it wasn't for those guys from Dragon City University, I could have provided the oil."
Thus, Cang Gongzi heard the whole story.
When Dragon Carp was chatting with the Black Dog in the Land of Heritage, it angrily said that the Yellow Dog was originally not as good as it, it had taken a shortcut and used the magic lamp to obtain power, breaking through to Lake-level in advance.
After hearing that, it immediately had an idea. The materials for the lamp oil, such as "ambergris, thousand-year pine resin, sacred beeswax" and so on, seemed difficult to find, even its master did not specially collect them.
However, it knew very well which environment would produce these materials. That was why it sent the agile Brett to search for them.
However, those environments were usually very dangerous, so it did not follow …
The reason why it knew was because in the Upper Realm, countless races wanted to enter the True Dragon Clan, so it collected countless treasures in the pond.
Although it never found anything that was too powerful, it could basically say that it had seen all kinds of precious materials from all over the world.
Unfortunately, it did not bring any of them down. Before it left, they were all divided up by Dragon City University and the others …
Dragon City University and the others said that it was useless even if it had it, it would be a pity if it broke when entering the barrier, so it was better to keep it for emergencies. This made it very angry, but it could not do anything about it.
In the end, it said indignantly, "No wonder Dragon City University and the others allowed me to accept gifts all the time, it turns out that I'm working for them in the end …"
When Cang Gongzi heard this, he faintly felt that something was wrong, it seemed that this person had a previous record.
He immediately reminded it, "We work for the Venerable One, so we must be honest in the future, so that we don't hurt the Venerable One's reputation."
Dragon Carp was speechless when it heard that, it bragged too much, and suddenly revealed its true colors …
Thus, it swayed its tail and spat out a few bubbles to cover up its guilty conscience, then said, "Of course not, I've changed after following Master for so many days. Little Cang, don't worry about this. "
