Chapter 1400: The Life Core of Long Tianyang

Chapter 1400: Chapter 1400: The Life Core of Long Tianyang

Lan Xuanyu’s eyes burned with renewed fighting spirit at this thought.

Perhaps, the Mother of Deep Red might be an opportunity. He still needed to figure out what this Mother of Deep Red really was, her origins, and whether she could be utilized.

With this in mind, he immediately got up and walked outside.

Others might not know, but the Dawn Dragon Knight and Holy Light Dragon Knight must have some knowledge about the Mother of Deep Red. Even under the guise of curiosity, asking them wouldn’t arouse too much suspicion.

When Lan Xuanyu arrived outside the residence of the Dawn Dragon Knight Zhong Zhichang, he was surprised to find that Zhong Zhichang wasn’t there. He had not returned to rest.

With Zhong Zhichang’s divine consciousness cultivation, if he were present, Lan Xuanyu would only need to stand outside his door for the Dawn Dragon Knight to notice him, just as during their previous encounter. But now, there was no reaction at all.

Lan Xuanyu waited outside for a while but still didn’t see the Dawn Dragon Knight. This left him somewhat surprised.

It seemed the situation with the Mother of Deep Red was even more troublesome than he’d anticipated. The Dawn Dragon Knight was likely summoned to participate in a joint discussion about countermeasures.

He could only wait until they returned. The exchange conference here had already ended, so they would presumably return to the Sky Dragon Planet soon. He would wait to discuss it there.

Thinking of this, Lan Xuanyu prepared to return to his residence. Just as he had taken a few steps, a peculiar voice suddenly rang in his mind.

“At last, we can communicate now,” the voice said abruptly, startling Lan Xuanyu, who instinctively paused in place.

However, he quickly resumed walking, continuing along his path while wondering internally, “Who are you?”

This was already the third time this voice had appeared in his mind. The prior instances had convinced him this wasn’t an illusion but something real. He also deduced that before returning to the Sky Dragon Planet, this entity—having sought him out—would surely contact him again. The entity represented the greatest threat to his safety that Lan Xuanyu could perceive. But since it didn’t immediately expose its identity, it likely had an agenda, meaning there was room to negotiate.

“We’ve already met,” the voice continued this time, instead of stopping after a sentence.

Because the voice manifested directly within Lan Xuanyu’s consciousness, he couldn’t distinguish whether the speaker was male or female.

Frowning slightly, Lan Xuanyu reflexively asked, “The Mother of Deep Red?”

“No, of course not. How could I be that filthy and horrible creature? Quite the opposite; she is my greatest enemy,” the voice said with palpable disdain.

The Mother of Deep Red’s enemy? Lan Xuanyu’s mind instantly swirled with curiosity. Good—so it wasn’t the Mother of Deep Red. The Mother of Deep Red clearly opposed the Dragon Horse Star System. If it had found him and uncovered the secrets of his identity, the trouble could have been immense, with the possibility of his demise approaching one hundred percent.

“You don’t need to worry. I mean you no harm. At least not in the short term. I’m here for a mutually beneficial exchange,” the voice added.

Lan Xuanyu asked, “What kind of mutually beneficial exchange? Why seek me out?”

The voice explained, “Because you are the only glimmer of hope I’ve found—the only being whose veins carry the bloodline of a God King.”

Lan Xuanyu didn’t know exactly how much the entity knew about him, but when it mentioned this, he was nearly stunned into losing composure. It could even discern his Dragon God’s bloodline! Even the Sky Dragon Leader of the Dragon Clan hadn’t discovered this secret! Treasure Hunting Beast’s concealment seemed utterly ineffective against the owner of this voice.

Seeing Lan Xuanyu’s silence, the voice sighed softly and said, “You must be curious as to how I know so much and why I can delve deep into your inner mind. The primary reason stems from the disparity in strength. Additionally, you’ve been continuously siphoning life energy from me, even bringing others to steal it. How could I not know you? From the moment you stepped onto my body on your first day, I’ve been aware of you. Back then, I thought you might be my chance to escape everything—perhaps even my only chance.”

Anyone else hearing these words would likely be bewildered and lost, but for Lan Xuanyu, they sent a shockwave through his consciousness as he involuntarily exclaimed in his mind, “You—you’re the life core of the Sky Horse Planet?!”

In an instant, everything connected. Yes! Neither the Sky Dragon Leader nor the Sky Horse Sect Leader could discern his true nature, yet this being could. It could command life energy to benefit him, even cleansing the impurities of creation and destruction. How could an ordinary existence possibly achieve this?

Lan Xuanyu possessed a Life Affinity Constitution. On Douluo Planet, he had practically been the spokesperson for the Eternal Tree, the planet’s life core. Like Douluo Planet, powerful life-energy-abundant planets like the Sky Horse Planet and Sky Dragon Planet must, without a doubt, have their own life cores!

Back when Lan Xuanyu first arrived at the Sky Dragon Mansion, he had speculated that the Sky Dragon Planet’s life core might reside there—it was where the life energy was incredibly dense, especially around Lake Tianyang.

Wait, Lake Tianyang? She said they had met before.

Could it be…?

Lan Xuanyu felt his hair stand on end as he once again exclaimed in shock, “You are… Long Tianyang?”

“You truly are a clever human,” Long Tianyang’s voice echoed softly, this time mimicking her original voice within the mental realm.

While Lan Xuanyu gasped audibly, his heart grew slightly calmer. This elusive voice that kept appearing in his consciousness being Long Tianyang was far preferable to facing the Mother of Deep Red.

“You—you are the life core of the Sky Horse Planet? Then how could you appear on the Sky Dragon Planet?” Lan Xuanyu asked curiously.

Long Tianyang sighed lightly and said, “Take a guess.”

After a brief moment of contemplation, a bold guess formed in Lan Xuanyu’s mind. “Could it be that the Sky Dragon Planet and the Sky Horse Planet—the twin Sky Horse Stars—were originally one? Not only are you the life core of the Sky Horse Planet, but you’re also the life core of the Sky Dragon Planet? Or perhaps, you and Long Tianyang from the Sky Dragon Planet are twins? These are the only possibilities I can think of.”

Long Tianyang calmly replied, “You are indeed very clever; this increases my confidence in the potential success of our cooperation. Yes, you’re correct—both assumptions are true. We were originally one, forced into two separate entities. Let me take this rare opportunity to tell you my story.”

“The primary reason I couldn’t communicate with you earlier was that both the Sky Dragon and Sky Horse constantly kept my divine consciousness locked down. Under their monitoring, any excessive fluctuations in my consciousness would surely arouse suspicion, which would be problematic. Now, while their divine consciousnesses are forcibly shut off from external sensing and communication as they convene to discuss countermeasures against the Mother of Deep Red, I finally got this opportunity.”

“I am a natural child of this universe—an existence born from nature itself. To this day, I don’t know how I came to be. But through continuous evolution and deep understanding of the universe, I gradually realized that I must be a fragment of the original creation of this cosmos. I’ve lived for eons, progressing through countless changes and advancements to arrive at what you now know as the Dragon Horse Twin Stars. Of course, these were names given by the Dragon Clan and Sky Horse Clan. My original name was simply Tianyang. The surname ‘Long’—it was bestowed by the Sky Dragon.”
