Immortal of the Ages

"Sis! I didn't!" Bai Ao recoiled as if he'd been struck by lightning. He quickly shook his head. "I swear, I didn't look at her. If I'm lying, let the heavens strike me down!"

"What do you mean?! Are you accusing me without reason? You uneducated little brat, you dare to act cheap but won't admit it?" Shen Nanyin was initially aggrieved, but hearing these words made her furious. She glared angrily at the young man in white.

"Young Dragon Consort..." Bai Lu had hoped her brother would admit his mistake and that this awkward situation would pass. But in just a few sentences, it escalated to name-calling, and her anger ignited even more.

"Sis! I really didn't look!" Bai Ao clenched his sister's hand, tears streaming down his face.

"You still dare to argue!" Shen Nanyin was also crying with rage. Her face was full of indignation as she tightly grasped her husband's hand, biting her lip. "You little bastard, in the end, it's me who accused you? What kind of place is the Gu God Star that produces a coward like you who dares to act but won't take responsibility! If you had even a shred of manners, as a woman, would I have to ruin my reputation to educate you?"

Shen Nanyin was hysterical, as she'd been utterly wronged, her emotions genuine. Plus, this incident was tarnishing her reputation, causing some whispers among the onlookers.

"Bai Lu, that child is rude and has offended the Young Dragon Consort. Hurry and make him admit his mistake and kneel. If this matter escalates, it will be embarrassing."

"Yes!"

Several friends nearby came over to quietly advise Bai Lu.

"But I understand my brother..." Bai Lu knew she couldn't voice this thought. The other party was powerful, and the more Bai Ao denied it, the more embarrassed the Young Dragon Consort became. This nonsensical situation would only blow up.

She could only grit her teeth, press Bai Ao's shoulder, and force him to kneel, shouting, "Quickly kowtow to the Young Dragon Consort! Then leave the Grand Assembly Arena immediately and let Father discipline you!"

Upon hearing this, Bai Ao felt like he had been struck by lightning on a clear day. His eyes turned completely red. The boy couldn't stand being unjustly accused. Fueled by anger, he didn't understand the bigger picture or that his sister was trying to save him. He struggled to his feet, roaring at Shen Nanyin, "I'll say it again! I didn't look at you! I didn't look! I didn't look! You're the one who's falsely accusing me!"

With those words, the entire crowd fell silent.

Bai Lu was also stunned.

"Waaah, you bastard..." Shen Nanyin cried.

At that moment, the Young Dragon Lord found himself caught in this awkward situation. As the commander of a united army, a man who adored his wife and was beloved by the people, he felt torn in two different directions by his duties, almost splitting himself apart.

Should he continue to cherish and maintain his image, preserving face, or should he keep winning people's hearts?

When these two points conflicted, the Young Dragon Lord was momentarily disoriented.

"The Young Dragon Lord of the prestigious Southern Divine Dragon Realm—how dare some roadside mutts desecrate your woman, and yet you still have to kowtow to them? Are you part of the Dragon Devil Clan?" Shen Nanyin exclaimed bitterly, then lowered her head, choking back tears. "I'm sorry, this little beast has overstepped. I just can't bear such humiliation..."

There was no denying she knew exactly how to provoke the Young Dragon Lord!

His eyes, at that moment, resembled volcanic craters, spewing molten lava.

"As everyone knows, a woman would never stake her reputation on falsely accusing a man, so this Bai Ao..." a man from the Dragon Devil Clan spoke coldly.

"Young Dragon Lord!" Sensing his wrath, Bai Lu quickly bowed her head and hurriedly said, "I apologize on behalf of my brother! I will have him expelled from the Grand Assembly Arena immediately. In the future, my father will personally go to the Southern Divine Dragon Realm to make amends to you all!"

"Dig out his eyes and get out," the Young Dragon Lord suddenly declared. His voice was not loud, but it was resolute.

Bai Lu was stunned, her face turning unpleasant as she murmured, "Isn't that unnecessary..."

In her heart, even if her brother had looked, it would have been just a few glances. She had already promised to have their father go to the Southern Divine Dragon Realm to apologize. Wasn't that enough?

The disciples of the other celestial sects heard this and felt a chill. To serve a ruler was like serving a tiger; they feared this incident might happen to themselves!

"Are you going to dig them out, or should I?" the Young Dragon Lord replied coldly.

This was his true nature—cruel to others, harsh to his wife. There was no sense of righteousness or genuine affection; it was all an act.

But now, with a single word from Shen Nanyin, his deeply ashamed heart forced his true feelings to surface.

"Young Dragon Lord! I will dig them out myself!"

Unexpectedly, after saying this, Bai Ao let out a roar, suddenly thrusting both hands into his eyes, forcibly gouging them out. His hands were covered in blood!

Then he turned towards Shen Nanyin and hysterically shouted, "I have someone I love! I didn't even glance at you! I don't know why you have to falsely accuse me, but let me tell you, our Gu God Star would never pledge loyalty to people like you..."

"Shut up!" Bai Lu was utterly heartbroken. She quickly covered her brother's mouth and shielded his eyes, hoping that if they acted swiftly, his eyes could be repaired. But if they continued to defy the Young Dragon Lord, she was certain that the disciples of the Gu God Star would all die here!

"Young Dragon Lord! We're truly sorry. This child has spoken nonsense and dared to act without responsibility. We'll take him away now so as not to interfere with your great mission to eliminate evil," Bai Lu hurriedly said.

As she spoke, the people from the Gu God Star gathered together, forcibly restraining Bai Ao, preparing to leave.

"Stop!" The Young Dragon Lord coldly raised his head, his eyes burning with golden flames. His ten-foot-tall stature exuded an oppressive force.

Bai Lu trembled all over, sensing the lethal intent.

"He did it himself. It doesn't count," the Young Dragon Lord declared.

"Young Dragon Lord..." Bai Lu pleaded, her face desperate as she prepared to kneel.

Unexpectedly, the Young Dragon Lord waved his hand and commanded the 20 Dragon Devil Clan geniuses beside him, "Take them down!"

That single command clearly indicated that Bai Ao's stubbornness had escalated his anger, affecting the entire Gu God Star.

Those Dragon Devil Clan members immediately sprang into action!

This demonstrated that although the Young Dragon Lord was harsh to his wife, his possessiveness and desire for control over women were exceedingly strong, even more so than the average person.

Upon hearing this, Bai Lu's face fell into despair. She realized there was no way to explain it away and had no choice but to urgently shout to the other disciples of the Gu God Star, "Break through, go!"

What should have been a simple resolution through kneeling and admitting fault had escalated to this point, leaving her feeling helpless.

Throughout this ordeal, the Young Dragon Lord's cold-bloodedness and cruelty struck a severe blow to her, someone who revered strength.

The Dragon Devil Clan pursued, and the disciples of the Gu God Star fled in panic, too afraid to fight back.

Seeing the situation verge on internal chaos... just then, several people emerged from the crowd, standing before the Dragon Devil Clan geniuses!

"Young Dragon Lord, calm your anger!"

"Please, Young Dragon Lord, spare Bai Lu! Bai Ao made a mistake, and Bai Lu will discipline him."

"He has already paid the price of losing both eyes!"

"The Young Dragon Lord is magnanimous. This kid is truly foolish and ungrateful."

"The Gu God Star follows the Southern Divine Dragon Realm. Our fathers share a deep friendship. We should focus on attacking the Extreme Yin Celestial Realm for now."

Those speaking were all core disciples from various celestial sects, each on par with Bai Lu in status.

Their coming to defend Bai Lu only showed that she was indeed a good person, with many friends. Seeing her being implicated, quite a few stepped forward to support her.

"Gusu Yan from the Comet Immortal Gate, Bloodvine Young Master, and Ah Jiao from the Nether God Star..." The Young Dragon Lord looked at these individuals and listed several names in succession, his deep voice sending a chill through everyone present.

With this interference, Bai Lu and the other disciples of the Gu God Star successfully escaped.

"Young Dragon Lord!"

Those whose names were mentioned could only grit their teeth, clasp their fists, and await the Young Dragon Lord's judgment.

Their attempt to stop the Young Dragon Lord from killing was a serious provocation, but... if it happened again, they wouldn't be able to stand by.

Although Bai Ao had indeed been immature time and again, causing the Young Dragon Lord to lose face, his anger had spread to all the disciples of the Gu God Star. They truly felt... it wasn't necessary.

The Young Dragon Lord’s golden, fiery eyes scanned the crowd, filling them with unease.

Suddenly, he laughed. He shook his head with a smile and said, “You guys are something else. I was just joking with Bai Lu, and you all took it seriously.”

Everyone froze for a moment, still feeling unsettled.

Embracing Shen Nanyin, the Young Dragon Lord spoke firmly, “Bai Ao indeed lacks manners, but letting him feel the pain of losing his eyes will benefit his growth. With the Gu God Star’s methods, restoring his sight won’t be difficult.”

“Yes. As for Bai Lu…”

The crowd looked towards the Young Dragon Lord.

“She misunderstood me. I’ll send a flying talisman, and she’ll return shortly,” the Young Dragon Lord continued.

“Oh…”

The crowd exchanged glances and could only nod.

Was the Young Dragon Lord sincere, or had he calmed his anger only to maintain control?

Deep down, everyone knew the answer. Coming to the Grand Assembly of Myriad Sects meant having clear minds.

They were well aware of the Young Dragon Lord’s true nature and the dangers he posed.

By admitting it was a joke, the atmosphere at least lightened.

“It’s just a minor incident caused by a mischievous child. Let’s all laugh it off and focus on conquering the Extreme Yin Star.” The Young Dragon Lord’s gaze swept forward, channeling all his anger onto a common foe!!

“Follow the Young Dragon Lord and leave no survivors!” the crowd shouted, especially the several geniuses who'd just stepped forward.

“Continue!”

With a command, the army advanced once more, losing only about 20 people, which didn’t affect the overall plan.

The Young Dragon Lord regained his cheerful demeanor, still strategizing expertly.

However, from that moment on, he held Shen Nanyin’s waist more tightly, growing even more intimate.

“These people are all worthless scum. Why bother befriending them? Our Dragon Devil Clan has already slaughtered plenty of those scum from the Extreme Yin Star!” Shen Nanyin complained.

“You, shut up.” The Young Dragon Lord gritted his teeth, his palm pressing into Shen Nanyin’s waist, leaving five bloodstains.

Shen Nanyin stuck out her tongue, her face showing a coquettish smile. The violet nine-headed dragon in her left eye flickered a few times, making her gaze appear twisted and strange.

But the Young Dragon Lord didn’t notice any of this. He commanded the army, marching them out in a grand procession!

However, unlike before, the force was no longer filled with passionate righteousness. Instead, each person wore a different expression, burdened with their own worries…

“She misunderstood me. I’ll send a flying talisman, and she’ll return shortly,” the Young Dragon Lord continued.
