Many years ago, King Wu usurped the Zhou Dynasty and the Zhou Dynasty collapsed.
Zhou Qing, the king of the Great Zhou Dynasty, led his remnants to retreat steadily, and was eventually forced into the desolate and remote northern region. Since then, the Great Zhou Dynasty, which once had a powerful influence on the vast continent, collapsed. King Wu founded the Dawu Dynasty and replaced it, becoming the top of the vast continent.
dynasty.
King Wu planned to seize the "Sacred Dragon Luck" from Prince Zhou Yuan of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and instilled it into the bodies of male and female twins born by King Wu's wife on the same day of the same month. As a result, the Wu Dynasty had the "Dragon and Phoenix Luck" to protect it and suppress the national destiny.
.
During these years, the fortunes of the country of Dawu were at its peak, like the bright sun rising over this vast continent, and all the countries coming to court, the atmosphere was complete.
…
Dawu Palace, Houyuan.
In an open space, several sturdy guards surrounded a little boy wearing bright yellow clothes. The little boy stood with his hands behind his hands. The arrogance in his eyes seemed to emanate from his bones, as if he was born to be a king.
The surrounding guards stared at him eagerly, and after a moment, they rushed out violently, their fists and kicks making a sound of breaking wind, and there was an afterimage, and they violently hit the little boy.
Watching the people attacking, a smile appeared on the corner of the little boy's mouth, with a hint of ferocity in his smile.
boom!
Not only did he not retreat, but he shot straight out, rushing directly into the offensive. Only a faint source of energy could be seen on his small fist. The seemingly small fist contained a lot of energy.
Heavy force.
Bang! Bang!
Whenever his fist fell on the body of a guard, the latter's body shook, his chest seemed to collapse, and a mouthful of blood mist spurted out.
The little boy struck ruthlessly and showed no mercy. When his figure passed through, the guards all flew out and rolled on the ground, covered in blood.
This result seems somewhat unexpected.
"Haha, good, you are worthy of being the dragon of my martial arts family!" When the battle ended, there was a sudden burst of laughter on the stone steps on the side, and the surrounding guards and maids quickly knelt down.
What I saw there was a tall, middle-aged man with a smile on his face. He looked resolute, and his brows were full of majesty. A sense of oppression emanated from his body, making people tremble.
Astonishingly, he is His Majesty King Wu of the current Dawu Dynasty.
And the little boy he could call the Dragon of the Wu Family was naturally the prince of the Dawu Dynasty—Wu Huang.
Next to King Wu, there was an old man in black who smiled and said: "His Royal Highness is really a genius. He just came into contact with cultivation two years ago, but now he has opened seven meridians. This speed is unprecedented.
."
King Wu smiled and nodded, his eyes looking at Wu Huang were also full of satisfaction. With Long'er like him, why should the Wu Dynasty not prosper?
And while he was smiling, when he looked in the other direction of the back garden, his brows couldn't help but wrinkle.
In the garden, a little girl wearing a small skirt was sitting cross-legged. In her arms, she seemed to be holding a bird with an injured leg. She was carefully wrapping the injured bird around.
leg.
Although the little girl is still young, her little face already reveals the outlines of a peerless beauty, and her fair skin is like white jade, glowing in the sunlight.
The little girl's name is Wu Yao, and she is also the little princess of the Wu Dynasty.
King Wu looked at Wu Yao and frowned. Originally, he also had high hopes for Wu Yao. After all, it was Wu Huang and Wu Yao who had the fortune of the Holy Dragon, Prince Zhou Yuan of the Great Zhou Dynasty.
But now, in the past few years, Wu Huang has completely awakened the holy dragon's destiny and made it his own. He started practicing two years ago and has made rapid progress. Now he has opened seven meridians.
Wu Yao, on the other hand, showed no movement at all. The fate of the holy dragon that he once swallowed did not show any difference at all. Even his cultivation was quite slow, no different from ordinary people.
Obviously, she did not let the holy dragon's destiny awaken in her body.
This made King Wu, who had high hopes for her, extremely disappointed.
"Is it possible that Wu Yao's body is not suitable for the aura of the holy dragon?" King Wu's eyes flickered slightly.
He was silent for a moment and said slowly: "Wu Huang and Wu Yao will be eight years old tomorrow..."
"Go and ask people to prepare for tomorrow's baptism. I hope that this time, Wu Yao can awaken the Holy Dragon's destiny in her body and start practicing. Otherwise, this Holy Dragon's destiny will be too wasteful for her."
King Wu's face was expressionless and looked a little cold. He said calmly: "If she is really not suitable, then find a way to deprive her of the Holy Dragon's destiny and infuse it into Wu Huang."
"Only in this way can Wu Huang fully unleash the Holy Dragon's destiny and protect me, Dawu, for thousands of years."
The old man in black on the side was shocked when he heard this, and whispered: "Your Majesty, if you deprive the little princess of the holy dragon's energy, I'm afraid it will severely damage her vitality, and she may even be unable to practice in the future.
."
King Wu was silent for a moment, looked at him indifferently, and said: "Even if she can't practice, she is still my princess of Dawu, and I will not treat her badly. She is the daughter of the royal family. She has been superior since she was a child, so naturally she should be my princess."
Do something."
The old man in black was silent, looking at the little girl in the garden, and sighed in his heart. No one in Dawu knew that this little princess was weak and kind at heart. Unfortunately, among the royal family, kindness is probably the worst thing.
No more needed.
I hope that tomorrow, the little princess will be able to awaken the destiny of the holy dragon in her body.
While they were talking, Wu Yao among the flowers carefully held the bird that was entangled in the injured leg with her little hands, with an innocent smile on her little face.
"Hey, this bird is almost dead, why are you trying to save it? Let me roast it and eat it!" But at this moment, a voice suddenly came, and then a hand stretched out and hit it.
He grabbed the bird in Wu Yao's hand.
Wu Yao was shocked and turned pale, and hurriedly protected the little bird in her arms.
Bang!
The palm slapped Wu Yao's arm with great force, knocking her to the ground immediately. A look of pain appeared on her face, and a bruise appeared on her arm.
"Wu Huang, you!" She looked angrily at the little boy in front of her, it was Wu Huang.
Wu Huang curled his lips, stretched out his hand to grab it, and said: "It's just a bird, give it to me quickly."
At the same time, he suddenly said angrily: "Why do these things deserve your care and protection?"
He stared at the panicked bird in Wu Yao's arms, and for some reason he became more and more angry. There was even a hint of murderous intent towards the innocent bird in his eyes.
He's just an insignificant little beast, does he deserve her care?
Even when she was facing him, she never cared so much, right?
An unspeakable jealousy arose in his heart.
Facing Wu Huang's pull, Wu Yao defended her with all her strength, but Wu Huang was not as strong as Wu Yao. She was so angry that tears welled up in her narrow eyes.
"Wu Huang!"
Fortunately, at this moment, a stern woman shouted.
I saw a woman in palace attire and phoenix crown walking quickly, surrounded by a group of palace maids. The woman's body was thin, and her cheeks were extremely pale and weak. She was supported by the palace maids and stared at Wu Huang, saying: "Don't bully Wu Yao!"
Wu Huang could only retract his hands with a groan, cupped his fists and said, "Mother."
Wu Yao quickly got up and hid behind the woman in palace attire and phoenix crown, and said aggrievedly: "Mother."
This phoenix-crowned woman is the current queen of Dawu and the biological mother of Wu Yao and Wu Huang.
The queen touched Wu Yao's little head lovingly, then looked at Wu Huang and said in a deep voice: "Didn't I tell you that you are not allowed to bully Wu Yao with your strength? Apologize to her quickly."
When Wu Huang heard this, he immediately raised his head and said in dissatisfaction: "She is too weak."
"You!" the queen glared.
"Haha, okay, okay, it's just a joke among children, why should you take it seriously, Queen?" There was laughter from behind, and King Wu strode over and smiled at the Queen.
"It's up to you. If you're not feeling well, why don't you stop running around and take a good rest?"
Seeing King Wu protecting Wu Huang like this, the queen also smiled helplessly, coughed violently a few times, and felt a weakness emanating from her body. This was the day King Wu used means to force her to be born.
The sequelae of three years of delay.
King Wu patted Wu Huang on the shoulder, then looked at Wu Yao who was hiding behind the queen, with a faint smile, and said: "Wu Yao, tomorrow is your eight-year-old baptism. This time, you must awaken the Holy Spirit in your body.
Dragon Luck must never fail again, do you understand?"
His voice was quite stern, making Wu Yao tremble slightly.
After King Wu finished speaking, he stopped staying and turned around with Wu Huang, without looking at Wu Yao again.
cough!
The queen looked at King Wu's leaving figure and coughed violently again. The maids beside her also hurriedly supported him.
"Mother, are you okay?" Wu Yao tugged on the queen's robe, her little face full of worry.
The queen smiled lovingly at her, knelt down, touched her little face, sighed softly, and said: "Yao'er, you must succeed in tomorrow's baptism, otherwise what will you do in the future?"
As a couple, she knew King Wu very well. As a utilitarian person, he would do anything for Da Wu.
Back then, he had tried so hard to seize the Holy Dragon Luck from the crown prince of Dazhou and poured it into Wu Yao and Wu Huang respectively. But now Wu Yao shows no sign of awakening. Obviously King Wu will not sit idly by and let it happen.
Let her waste that holy dragon luck.
Wu Yao hugged the queen's arm and said: "Don't worry, mother. I will avoid Wu Huang when I see him in the future. Besides, the queen is still here."
The queen gave a bitter smile. She looked at the innocent and kind-hearted Wu Yao, her eyes were slightly red, "Yao'er, I'm afraid that my mother won't have much time to watch you grow up."
"Yao'er, promise my mother that I will wake up early... In this world, only your own power can prevent you from being bullied by others. My mother hopes that you can protect yourself well." The queen looked at Wu Yao and said.
Looking at the Queen's serious gaze, Wu Yao did not dare to act coquettishly anymore. She nodded her head and said with a hint of understanding: "Mother, I understand!"
The queen then smiled slightly and touched Wu Yao's little head happily. Then she raised her head and frowned as she looked at King Wu's leaving figure.
King Wu's previous words made her feel a little uneasy.
I hope...it's her illusion.
The next day.
Dawu Palace, in a deep hall.
There are two pools in the main hall, and now, the water in the pool is boiling. The water is dark red and exudes a delicate fragrance. It is refined by gathering many precious raw materials.
Next to the two pools, King Wu stood with his hands behind his hands. In front of him, Wu Huang and Wu Yao were both wearing single clothes, but the way they looked at the boiling pool in front of them was completely different.
Wu Huang is fiery and urgent.
Wu Yao, on the other hand, seemed a little scared.
"Wu Huang, Wu Yao, get ready to go down." King Wu said in a low voice, "These two pools of water have consumed a lot of precious raw materials, so they are most suitable for baptism."
"yes!"
Wu Huang responded excitedly, and then jumped into the pool water without hesitation. The boiling water made him grin, and then he sat cross-legged in it and began to absorb the purity contained in the pool water.
Origin Qi.
Wu Yao, on the other hand, was a little hesitant and looked at the queen behind King Wu with a pair of big eyes asking for help.
The queen also looked distressed, but looking at the expressionless King Wu in front of her, she could only sigh secretly and shake her head at Wu Yao.
Seeing this, Wu Yao could only bite her lips, with some mist in her big eyes. Then she gritted her teeth and stepped into the boiling water step by step. Suddenly her face was burned hot and her skin was as white as jade.
They all turned red.
But in the end she forced herself to endure it and sat cross-legged in the pool.
The hall became quiet.
King Wu's slightly nervous eyes kept turning back and forth on Wu Huang and Wu Yao.
boom!
And this kind of silence lasted for about a stick of incense. Suddenly, there was a low muffled explosion in the pool where Wu Huang was. The water waves were rolling, and fluctuations of Origin Qi were emanating from Wu Huang's body.
His body seemed to have become taller and stronger at this time.
"Open the eight meridians!" King Wu was overjoyed when he saw this scene. He looked up to the sky and laughed and said: "Okay, okay, you are worthy of being the dragon of my Wu family. In less than two years, you have opened the eight meridians!"
This kind of speed can be said to be quite outstanding.
King Wu's face was full of joy, but when his eyes turned to the pool where Wu Yao was sitting, his smile faltered because he saw Wu Yao still sitting cross-legged in it, but there was no fluctuation of origin energy.
It seemed that Wu Yao was unable to absorb the pure source energy in the pool.
As time went by, the boiling water in the pool gradually cooled down, and the pure source energy contained in it also dissipated. Wu Yao sat cross-legged in it, and the bone-chilling cold water made her shiver.
"Father...Father, can I, can I come out?" Wu Yao said in a trembling voice, her teeth chattering.
The queen on the side also quickly looked at King Wu.
King Wu's face was clouded, and he looked at Wu Yao with eyes that seemed extremely disappointed. In the end, he didn't say a word, waved his sleeves, and turned around coldly.
Obviously, after this baptism, Wu Yao still did not awaken the destiny of the Holy Dragon.
In the pool, the little girl, who was all wet and cold, looked at King Wu's leaving figure. The latter's eyes were full of disappointment and indifference when he left, making her already cold body even colder.
"Yao'er, come out quickly!"
Only the queen was standing by, holding a thick blanket and saying distressedly.
Wu Yao stood up from the pool in a depressed mood, letting the queen help her wipe it, and whispered: "Mother, my father seems to be very disappointed with me..."
The queen's hands froze and she forced a smile and said, "Yao'er, don't think too much, my father is just anxious and is not disappointed in you."
Wu Yao nodded slightly when he heard this, but his expression was obviously still a little downcast.
Outside the main hall.
King Wu walked out with a gloomy expression, and an old man in black robe followed him from the side.
King Wu put his hands behind his back, was silent for a long time, and said slowly: "Let's start preparations. Tonight, we will strip away the holy dragon energy from Wu Yao's body and pour it all into Wu Huang's body."
"Since she can't awaken the destiny of the Holy Dragon, we can't let her continue to waste it."
The black-robed old man's body trembled slightly, but in the end he didn't speak again and just nodded lightly.
"yes!"
…
Boom!
Over the capital city of Dawu, thunderclouds gathered, and the roar of dark thunder echoed throughout the city.
The whole world seemed extremely depressed.
In a corridor of the palace, King Wu walked slowly forward, and beside him, Wu Huang followed step by step.
"Father, where are we going?" Wu Huang looked around and asked with some confusion.
King Wu looked forward. He was silent for a while and said slowly: "Wu Huang, you are blessed with the destiny of the Holy Dragon. You are a born king. In the future, you will be able to fly to the nine heavens and be worshiped by thousands of people."
Wu Huang smiled and said: "Father, I am not surprised by this."
There is strong confidence and arrogance in his words.
Because he has been looked up to by countless people since he was sensible. No matter what he does, the achievements he makes always attract the admiration of countless people.
Those respectful eyes had already made him aware of his own extraordinaryness.
King Wu also smiled and said again: "But you only have half of the Holy Dragon's luck, and the other half is in Wu Yao's body. Today, I plan to give you half of the Holy Dragon's luck in her body."
Wu Huang was stunned for a moment, with rare hesitation, and said: "Father, you want to deprive Wu Yao of the Holy Dragon's luck in her body? Will that cause harm to her?"
Although Wu Huang is young, his character is far beyond that of his peers.
King Wu said calmly: "There may be a little incident, but it won't hurt your life."
When Wu Huang heard this, a look of struggle appeared in his eyes.
King Wu looked at Wu Huang and said slowly: "Wu Huang, do you think you can accept Wu Yao's marriage in the future?"
Wu Huang raised his head fiercely, shook his head decisively, and said: "How can anyone else in this world be worthy of Wu Yao?!"
Wu Yao was born with his compatriot, and in the view of the arrogant Wu Huang, only the blood of the two of them is the purest. Perhaps it is because both of them have the luck of the Holy Dragon. Wu Huang has a special feeling for Wu Yao.
A closeness that comes from the heart.
This kind of closeness has gradually deteriorated in recent years and turned into a desire for control. Therefore, whenever Wu Huang sees Wu Yao showing concern for those insignificant things, he will be extremely angry.
Because in his opinion, except for him, anything else is not worthy of Wu Yao's concern.
As for Wu Yao getting married in the future, from Wu Huang's point of view, this is even more impossible to accept.
With a faint smile on his lips, King Wu said: "If Wu Yao loses the luck of the Holy Dragon, she may not be able to practice. In the future, she will have to stay in the palace, and you can always protect her. When the time comes, she
I will listen to you in everything."
Wu Huang lowered his head and was silent for a moment. Finally, he nodded gently.
When King Wu saw this, he smiled happily and touched Wu Huang's head.
"Good boy."
Thunder clouds filled the sky and the earth outside, and thunder echoed. Wu Huang led Wu Huang through the corridor, and finally stopped deep in the palace. Here, an altar stood.
On the stone bed at the top of the altar, there was a little girl lying on it as if in a coma, it was Wu Yao.
Under the stone bed, there were countless strange source patterns flickering.
"Lie down on it." King Wu pointed to the stone bed next to Wu Yao.
Wu Huang nodded and walked up to the altar. He looked at Wu Yao who was lying quietly on the stone bed. After a while, he lay down next to her. At the same time, he stretched out his palm and held the latter's cold little hand.
"Wu Yao, in this world, we are together..." he whispered.
King Wu looked at this scene, and slowly raised his palms. The source energy from heaven and earth surged in quickly, and countless strange source patterns flickered on the altar.
Those source patterns began to squirm as if they were alive, gradually climbing up and covering the bodies of Wu Yao and Wu Huang.
The source pattern was like an awl, stinging Wu Yao's body. Even when she was unconscious, a look of pain appeared on her face. In her body, there seemed to be a line of blood that began to squirm, along with Wu Huang's palm.
Wherever it touches, there will be a surge in the latter's body.
Between heaven and earth, there seemed to be a faint roar of dragons.
King Wu looked solemn as he controlled the altar, not daring to be distracted, but his eyes looked extremely fanatical. As long as he succeeds today, Wu Huang will be able to enjoy his own luck, and his future achievements will surely be limitless.
By then, their Great Wu Dynasty will be unstoppable.
"My lord, what are you doing?!"
And just when King Wu was concentrating on controlling the altar, suddenly, a sharp sound sounded from behind it.
King Wu frowned and glanced around, only to see the queen coming quickly with a pale complexion.
"Queen, what's going on here has nothing to do with you. Go and rest." King Wu glanced at her and withdrew his gaze, saying indifferently.
The queen stared at the two figures on the altar and said miserably: "You, you actually want to attack Wu Yao?! Your Majesty, are you so cruel?!"
King Wu said calmly: "It's just depriving Wu Yao of the Holy Dragon's luck. At most, it will make her unable to practice in the future, and it will not harm her life."
The queen smiled miserably and said: "In your eyes, is everyone just a tool to be used?"
"Back then, you tried your best to make me delay my childbirth for three years just because of your plan. Do you know how badly my energy was damaged after that? Do you know how long I have left to live?"
"But even if this is the case, I don't blame you. As long as I can give birth to Wu Yao and Wu Huang, I can bear the sacrifice of my life."
"But why, why, do you still treat Yao'er so cruelly?!"
The queen rushed towards King Wu and said with tears streaming down her face: "Let Yao'er go! Please!"
She grabbed King Wu's arm.
King Wu was concentrating on controlling the altar. When he was interrupted by her, he couldn't concentrate. He immediately said angrily: "Get away!"
boom!
A source of energy burst out from his body.
The queen had never practiced cultivation and her body was weak, so she could not withstand the impact of his Origin Qi. Even though she flew backwards, she hit a stone pillar with her head, causing blood to flow out.
"Queen?" King Wu was shocked when he saw this, and wanted to go to help her up. However, the altar was at a critical moment, so he could only stamp his feet and look away cruelly.
The queen slowly collapsed along the stone pillar, blood pouring from her face, gradually covering her sight.
She stretched out her palm weakly and grabbed at the altar, as if she wanted to catch the little person, but in the end, her palm fell down feebly.
The sight returns to darkness.
Yao'er, my mother failed to protect you... I'm really sorry.
Perhaps, she should not have agreed to King Wu's request back then. If she had not given birth to the two of them three years later, perhaps all these grievances would not have happened again.
This may be retribution...
Boom!
Thunder resounded between heaven and earth, and the thunder was like a giant python entrenched in the sky, extremely ferocious.
On the altar, Wu Yao's closed eyes suddenly opened at this moment. She sat up from the stone bed and looked under the altar as if she was sensing something.
In the pool of blood next to the stone pillar, the queen's body gradually became cold.
King Wu was shocked when he saw this scene. He didn't expect Wu Yao to wake up at this time.
"Mother...mother?" Wu Yao said with a trembling voice, and she climbed down from the stone bed.
"Wu Yao?" Wu Huang also climbed up and grabbed Wu Yao's little hand hard, trying to stop her.
boom!
However, just when Wu Huang stood in front of Wu Yao, an extremely powerful source of energy suddenly burst out in the latter's body, and Wu Yao punched out.
Poof!
That punch directly knocked Wu Huang backwards, and a mouthful of blood spurted out.
He looked at Wu Yao, whose long hair was gradually becoming windless in front of him, with some horror. The power of that punch far surpassed him, and the origin energy emanating from Wu Yao's body was also stronger than his.
The richness!
"Go away." Wu Yao murmured, then staggered down the altar and walked towards the queen in a pool of blood.
King Wu was also looking at Wu Yao blankly at this time. After a moment, a look of ecstasy emerged in his eyes.
"It turns out that all nine meridians are open at the same time!"
"Wu Yao, you have finally awakened to the destiny of the Holy Dragon!"
Facing King Wu's ecstatic gaze, Wu Yao didn't notice at all. She came to the queen's body, slowly knelt down, stretched out her little hands, and held the queen in her arms.
Boom!
Thunder pierced the night sky.
The heavy rain poured down at this time, and the rain curtain enveloped the sky and the earth.
Wu Yao held the queen's body, her little body trembling. Finally, she couldn't help but raise her head, her pale face covered with tears, and her heart-wrenching cries resounded in the rain.
"Queen mother!"
"Queen Mother, wake up!"
"I'm Yao'er, would you please wake up?!"
"Yao'er will listen to you in everything!"
When Wu Yao let out heartbreaking cries, she didn't see that behind her, there seemed to be flames rising. In the flames, there seemed to be a fire phoenix, gradually emerging.
…
The queen died, and the great warrior mourned.
In front of a tall mausoleum, Wu Yao, wearing a white little mourning dress, knelt quietly. She took out paper money and threw her face numbly into the flames. Sometimes the flames burned her palms, but she remained indifferent.
Behind her, there were many palace maids kneeling.
I don’t know how long she had been kneeling, but Wu Yao’s unwavering eyes finally showed some sparkle. Her little face was extremely cold, and the innocent smile she had in the past seemed to have been annihilated in the heavy rain that day.
.
Looking at Wu Yao, who exuded an aura of indifference, the palace maids around her were trembling. They felt that the little princess now seemed different from before...
Wu Yao slowly raised her head and looked towards the Great Wu Palace.
Although it is the mourning period for her mother, she knows that the palace is still celebrating her awakening of destiny. From now on, Dawu will continue to prosper.
What an irony.
Wu Yao opened her mouth slightly, and the paper money in her hand burned, then she lifted it and put it in front of her eyes.
There seemed to be flames burning in the pair of narrow phoenix eyes.
This disgusting palace, disgusting city and people, and this disgusting so-called holy dragon destiny...
Mother, you are right. In this world, only by controlling power in your hands can you prevent others from harming you...
In this case, from now on, I will become the strongest person in the world.
Queen Mother, I know that you have never liked this palace... Maybe you don't even like the Great Wu Dynasty...
In this case...
If there is a chance in the future, I will use them to burn fireworks to commemorate you...
Wu Yao's eyes slowly closed.
And when it opened again, the eyes that were once full of kindness and innocence were gradually covered by cold and ruthless frost.
Starting today——
I am the new Wu Yao!
In the future, the strongest person in this world!
