"What conjecture?" Jiang Fei asked curiously.
"Hmm …" Yue Ting pondered for a moment. After organizing his words, he said to Jiang Fei, "You see, our clan has not produced any offspring for many years, but now that you have successfully impregnated Feng Ling …"
"Teacher, what are you trying to say?" Jiang Fei's forehead was a little sweaty.
"Don't think too much, kid. There's nothing good that can happen to you!" Yue Ting rolled his eyes, then said to Jiang Fei, "After so many years of closed-door reproduction, although our Naga bloodline has been maintained pure, I always feel that this kind of inbreeding is not particularly good. Now, you have proven it with your actions." Yue Ting rolled his eyes, then said to Jiang Fei.
"Look, you have the bloodline of the returning Winged Dragon. Even though it's a little thin, you've still been replenished with dragon blood. As for Feng Ling, she's also a member of the Dragon Clan with a foreign bloodline. The two of you aren't related to each other, so you're able to reproduce successfully," Yue Ting concluded.
"What the f * ck! You've even come up with the conclusion that incestuous marriages can kill people? "Jiang Fei asked with his eyes wide open.
Of course, Jiang Fei, who came from a modern civilized society, knew that inbreeding would increase the probability of genetic mutation. This kind of mutation was not fixed. It could be a good direction, making the child stronger and smarter, but it could also lead to all kinds of bad situations.
Compared to the mutation that was beneficial to the human body, the possibility of the mutation being harmful was much higher. Therefore, in terms of probability, it was not worth it to risk a high probability of abnormality for a small probability of a genius.
Currently, the Naga were facing such a problem. Because the clan had been intermarrying all year round, and there were not many clansmen, this caused the entire Naga's reproductive ability to become weaker and weaker.
"Then what do you want to do?" Jiang Fei asked. Although he already had an idea in mind, the problem was that he needed the support of the elders of the Naga.
"Kid, you already have an idea, right? Do you really want me to say it? "Yue Ting was also an old fox. He was not willing to be the first to say something that violated the ancestral teachings.
"Hehe …" Jiang Fei smiled embarrassedly, but still refused to say anything.
"You're such a sly little brat. Fine, if you don't want to say it, then I'll do it!" Yue Ting smiled, then continued, "Since our Dragon Clan is unable to reproduce because we are all close relatives, then why don't we summon those mixed blood Dragon Clan back, recognize their Dragon Clan bloodline, and then let them marry freely with the orthodox Dragon Clan!"
"Teacher, are you serious?" Jiang Fei had long wanted to break this rule. Unfortunately, the elders were extremely stubborn, so Jiang Fei could not open his mouth at all.
"Yes! Go ahead and execute it. I'll take charge of this matter! " Yue Ting said after thinking for a while. Although the ancestral teachings of the Dragon race could not be violated, the continuation of the race was more important in comparison!
"Then teacher, you …" Jiang Fei still did not forget to ask Yue Ting to come out of the mountain.
"Well, as long as you do this for me, then I will help you!" Yue Ting immediately nodded.
"Thank you, teacher!" Jiang Fei bowed deeply and left Yue Ting's residence with Feng Ling.
After returning to his own palace, Jiang Fei first settled Feng Ling down and told her to take care of her pregnancy. Then, he went straight to the main hall to summon the dragons.
"Greetings, Great Sage!" The group of Dragon elders had been waiting for Jiang Fei to summon them. They had been discussing since Jiang Fei returned. In the end, it was almost a month before Jiang Fei finally summoned them.
"Alright! Rise! "Jiang Fei waved his hand.
"Thank you, Great Sage!" The group of old dragons stood on both sides of the main hall.
"Everyone, I have been discussing something important with Teacher Yue Ting for the past few days." Jiang Fei went straight to the point.
"Thank you, Great Sage …" The old dragons did not know that Jiang Fei had been 'working' for the past half a month. They really thought that this Great Sage was very diligent.
"Hehe …" Jiang Fei smiled and waved his hand. Although he knew that these people were sucking up to him, he still felt quite happy.
"Great Sage, what important thing were you discussing with Teacher Yue Ting?" At that moment, the Great Elder asked.
"I'm talking to my teacher about the reproduction of the Dragon race." The moment Jiang Fei said this, the Dragon race's elders started to talk among themselves.
"Could it be that Great Sage has a solution?"
"I don't know!"
"He hasn't seen us for so many days. Now that he suddenly called us over, he obviously has a solution!"
"If that's the case, that's great!"
"Yes, God bless our Dragon race. Our Dragon race is saved!"
…
Seeing how excited these elders were, Jiang Fei was secretly happy. Although it was not easy to change the ancestral teachings, at least these people knew the seriousness of the loss of their offspring.
"Sage, I wonder if you and teacher have come up with a solution?" The Dragon Queen asked from the side.
"There is a solution. After putting it into practice, it is indeed effective," Jiang Fei said.
"Really?"
"It is effective! It is effective! "
"That's great! Our Dragon race is saved! "
…
Jiang Fei's words made the elders of the Dragon race cheer again. After all, there had not been a baby Dragon for hundreds of years. No matter how old these old dragons were, they should be anxious.
"Great Sage, since the solution is effective, why don't we implement it immediately?" The Great Elder asked.
"I'm afraid that's not good …" Jiang Fei shook his head.
"Great Sage, since it can save our race, why do you say that it's not good?" The Dragon Queen asked.
"Could it be that the materials used are too rare and cannot be promoted on a large scale?" The Great Elder asked.
"It doesn't cost anything." Jiang Fei waved his hand.
"Then why can't it be promoted?" The Dragon Queen asked.
"Because this method is against the ancestral teachings!" Jiang Fei sighed.
"Against the ancestral teachings?" When Jiang Fei said these four words, all the elders fell silent.
The ancestral teachings could not be disobeyed. This was deeply ingrained in the hearts of the elders. Otherwise, Jiang Fei would not have become a Great Sage so easily with just a few words. Even when he killed the former Dragon Emperor, no one held him responsible. Even the Dragon Queen was willing to assist him. All of this was because of the ancestral teachings!
Now, if Jiang Fei tried to overthrow the ancestral teachings, his own legitimacy would be questioned!
"Great Sage, if this matter is related to the ancestral teachings, then you really have to think twice!" The Great Elder was the first to speak.
"I don't think so. Now that our race is in danger, we can be wiped out at any time. Compared to the ancestral teachings, I think it's more practical to live!" Another elder stood up. This was a more pragmatic elder.
"But we have not reached the final step yet. What if there is another way?" The Great Elder argued. His opinion also represented the majority of the stubborn elders.
