Survival of the fittest.
After listening to Long Potian's words, Long Ao's state of mind seemed to have changed. He had just broken through to the mid-level Earth Emperor realm, and now he had broken through to the high-level Earth Emperor realm.
A breakthrough?
Long Potian's heart was pounding hard. He seemed to be in disbelief. Although it was only a breakthrough, he knew what it meant.
He had only said a few words, and Long Ao had comprehended it. Such talent was too terrifying.
"Long Ao, are you even human?"
Long Ao, who had smoothly broken through to the high-level Earth Emperor realm, was very depressed when he heard Long Potian's words. However, it was completely understandable. Long Potian must have been shocked by his sudden breakthrough.
With a helpless smile, Long Ao said, "I was just lucky to break through."
Looking at the innocent face beside him, as if he was forced to break through, Long Potian couldn't help but want to give him a good kick.
Although he was surprised, Long Potian was not envious, jealous or hateful. Because in his opinion, the stronger Long Ao was, the more help he could provide. People who envied others but did not want to break through themselves would never be able to reach the pinnacle of martial arts.
"With such talent, even in the third-grade Long family, you can definitely look down on your peers."
Long Ao just smiled and didn't say anything.
"Long Ao, do you know the situation in Crimson Province?"
Shaking his head, Long Ao didn't know what Long Potian wanted to say, so he didn't ask. He knew that since Long Potian had already spoken, even if he didn't ask, he would still say it.
"Long Ao, Crimson Province is different from Tianzhou. There are nine families ruling over it. The nine families are the Wang family, Hao family, Duanmu family, Long family, Miao family, Wei family, Zhou family, Fang family, and Yan family."
Long Potian continued, "Among the nine families, my Long family's strength can only be considered as below average. It won't be easy for us to rise."
"What do you want?"
"I want to form an alliance."
"With who?" Long Ao was even more surprised. He didn't know why the Long family of Crimson Province would tell him if they wanted to form an alliance. He couldn't control the Long family or other forces.
Long Ao thought of something and looked at Long Potian. Could it be that Long Potian wanted his family to ally with him?
"Long Ao, I believe you've already guessed it. That's right. What I mean is very simple. If our two families form an alliance, we'll definitely be able to develop quickly."
It would be a lie to say that he didn't want to form an alliance. Long Ao was well aware of the strength of the Crimson Province's Long family.
The Crimson Province's Long Clan was a peak Level Four existence, only one step away from officially entering the ranks of Level Three. If that was the case, why would they choose to ally with his clan?
"Long Potian, even if we agree, will your family agree?"
Long Ao didn't think that a high-grade clan would be willing to form an alliance with a low-grade clan. It was already good enough that they didn't discriminate.
Long Potian seemed to have guessed that Long Ao would say this. He smiled and said, "When I speak the truth, your family alone doesn't have the qualifications to form an alliance with mine."
Hearing this, Long Ao wasn't angry at all. He knew that Long Potian was telling the truth. Because of this, Long Ao couldn't understand why Long Potian would say that they could form an alliance with his family.
"Long Ao, your talent and potential are the strongest I've ever seen. As long as you can grow, I can guarantee that you'll definitely become an overlord in the future. This alliance is my investment. My family and I will do our best to help your family. I just hope that when you soar in the future, you can take care of my family. How about it?"
Staring at Long Potian, Long Ao had to admit that Long Potian was indeed a genius. He even dared to make such an investment.
Since things had already reached this point, Long Ao knew that he couldn't refuse.
He nodded and said, "It's a deal."
"It's a deal."
Long Ao and Long Potian were both super geniuses in their respective families. Although they were juniors, their words carried more weight than anyone else's, including the heads of their families. Because of this, the two of them dared to form an alliance. Otherwise, even if they formed an alliance, wouldn't it be nonsense if their families were different?
Long Ao and Long Ao's alliance was a cross-province alliance. After all, Tianzhou and Crimson Provinces were very far apart. However, Long Ao knew very well that as the alliance began, their families would quickly enter a proper state. At that time, they would be able to develop.
Long Ao had always wanted to see his family grow stronger. That way, he would be able to travel and gain strength without worry.
"Brother Long, if you want your family to grow stronger, remember that you must first obtain the approval of the Long family. Otherwise, your family will be stuck at rank four for the rest of your life and will never be able to reach rank three."
"Why is that?"
"Long Ao, you don't know. When our family breaks through rank four and reaches the peak of rank four, the Long family will test us. Powerhouses are one thing, but more importantly, genius disciples. If they are not satisfied, the family will not be able to obtain their approval and will not be able to advance."
So that's how it is.
Long Ao of course understood the meaning behind Long Potian's words. In the end, if the family wanted to advance, they must first obtain the approval of the Long family. Otherwise, everything would be nonsense.
If the family did not advance, it would mean that the family would not have the opportunity to enter the Dragon Valley, obtain a dragon companion, and become a Dragon Warrior. According to the rules of the Long family, only those who reached rank three would have the opportunity to enter the Dragon Valley.
Entering the Dragon Valley and becoming a Dragon Warrior was the dream of every Long family disciple.
The family must advance, Long Ao firmly told himself in his heart.
Unknowingly, the two of them arrived at a valley surrounded by giant mountains. It was impossible to see the situation outside. In the valley, a gentle breeze blew and white clouds drifted, giving a very comfortable feeling.
"This is the place where the Warrior's Tomb is?"
"That's right. Back then, a senior discovered the Warrior's Tomb here and attracted countless warriors. However, after so many years, no one else was able to discover the tomb. However, the Heavenly Hound did not give up and would come to take a look every once in a while."
Yet another one who refused to give up.
Thinking about it, Long Ao felt as if a lifetime had passed. Because if he had not persevered for ten years, he believed that he would not be where he was today. In addition to talent, a martial artist also had to persevere. Long Ao had always believed in one sentence, and that was that one's efforts would always be rewarded.
"Looks like the Heavenly Hound is not here yet. Long Ao, I have already explained the situation to you. When the time comes, you must attack with all your strength. It's best if you can kill it in one blow and not give it any chance. Otherwise, we will be in big trouble."
