Origin Court: Accepting Disciples With A System

Chapter 315 Curing The Dragon Emperor

"Nobody can turn it off."

This sentence froze Yang Lujia on the spot as he still entered the room where this Paramountcy Vessel was situated. However, when he tried to turn it off with all the means available at his disposal, he got frustrated, because he truly could not turn it off. He could not even destroy it.

Who was so powerful to make this kind of thing that even he could not destroy it?

This again reminded him not to be arrogant.

Without hope, he only sighed and went back to the room where Gu Tian was still blankly staring at an empty space, his eyes already devoid of emotions. It was as though he became an idiot.

Yang Lujia did not kill him for some reason as well.

"Why did you not kill him directly, master?" Long Guang asked, gritting his teeth in anger. He was not satisfied. He wanted to kill this man badly.

"I still have some use for him. No…" Yang Lujia looked at Gu Tian and continued, "In fact, if I kill him now, it might alert his master, the Temporal Lord. Once that happens, your Dragon Emperor Palace has a high chance of getting swarmed by several enemies."

"But I can kill all of them—"

"Long Guang," Yang Lujia softly called. He then looked at his disciple dotingly. "Always practice caution. Moreover, wouldn't it be better to let this man suffer more than kill him right off the bat? Isn't it letting him go easily?"

Long Guang felt enlightened and looked at his master reverently. Truly, his master was still the best master!

"Yes, master!" He bowed, his aura oozing sincerity.

Long Sheng was still shocked when all of this happened. Long Guang's master was actually this strong. If it was before, he would have neglected him and only hoped to wait for his so-called friend to hand him the cure for his son's situation.

He turned to Yang Lujia and knelt in front of him. He lost all the pride and arrogance he had in his heart as an old dragon. What was clouding his mind at the moment was saving his aggrieved son. If it wasn't for his negligence, things would not turn out this way. As he thought of this, he looked at his old friend.

Gu Tian should have orchestrated everything that happened. He must be the one who placed his son in his current condition. If it weren't for his association with this man, his son wouldn't have suffered like this. Regardless, it was all in the past. What was necessary to do was asked for someone's help, someone reliable.

"Please help my s-son…" Tears kept forming at the edges of his eyes as they crawled down his cheeks. "I beg you. You can take anything from me, even my life. Just save him…"

Yang Lujia actually felt warmth. Although he was not the one directly receiving such care from a parent, he still felt his utmost sincerity to save his son. He had not felt this. In fact, he never did. All his parents did were atrocities. They never cared for him, at least from his perspective. However, he was most certain of it that they never placed him in their eyes. His father, as a businessman, only looked at him as a tool for their company, as a biological asset—that once he had grown enough, he could help the company bear more fruits.

They never showed acts that they cared for him.

That was why seeing Long Sheng like this, although he was a skeptical person, he did not want to hope that his parents were also like this. Hoping was out of the question when he did not even witness their level of vulnerability towards him.

"You don't need to beg me. Just you being prepared to give up your life for your son is enough for me to feel the warmth. I am even grateful for you for what you showed," Yang Lujia said, trying not to let these warm emotions show on his face. "You don't have to worry anymore. Even the best poison of this realm could not deal harm to me."

Long Sheng was not anymore shocked. His heart was only overflowing with gratefulness. He was so grateful from the bottom of his heart. Seeing how Yang Lujia took care of Gu Tian that easily, he knew that this man before him could do it.

He looked at Long Guang and promised himself to make this kid the next Dragon Emperor of the Dragon Emperor Palace. If it were not for this kid, he would not have been able to save his son, even when he chose to give his dragon core. If Gu Tian was that scheming, he knew that he had got to be prepared that once he would fade away from this world, so would his son.

"Carnage Lotus?" Yang Lujia questioned when he heard Sheng Ao talk about this flower.

"Master, this flower should have originated from the Fiend Emperor Palace. It seems like the Fiend Emperor Palace also had a hand in things. Moreover, they might be related to what happened to me back then as well, before I was banished from the Holy Light Palace."

"There is such a menacing and dark aura around this flower that is eating up his vitality," Yang Lujia commented as he pointed at the Dragon Emperor's forehead. "However, this much is not enough to make me waver. To me, this aura is just child's play."

The rules of life-flame bloomed from Yang Lujia's hand as the flame navigated itself through the Dragon Emperor's veins and into his dantian that was slowly being corrupted. Life flourished inside the Dragon Emperor's entire body. In fact, he was glowing with a greenish aura, as though he was reborn from death.

Gradually, as Long Sheng tried to spy on what was happening inside his son's body, the Carnage Lotus was actually directly burnt by the life-flame. He wondered how high Yang Lujia's comprehension was to make something like the Carnage Lotus be burnt like that.

"Uh… master, I forgot to tell you… you should have extracted it from his body instead. Eldest senior brother might find it useful…" Sheng Ao said as he remembered that their eldest senior brother was very proficient in the rules of darkness.

Yang Lujia just remembered and slapped his forehead. "You should have told me earlier. Anyway, I can just turn back time."

SHOCK!
