Chapter 3708 - The Three Greatdragon Stars
“Dragonoids?” Tianming was surprised.
“Yes! Among our people in the Middlekin Star Ruins, our lifebound beasts and totems are mostly dragons!” Long Chen said with pride.
It reminded Tianming of the Xuanyuan Dragon Sect. He had even brought quite a few people from the sect, such as Long Wanying, to the Upper Star Ruin. She had a strong affinity for absorbing the Flameyellow Bloodsoul, and Tianming was curious to see if she could interact with the cosmic god blood in the future.
“I heard from my seniors that, long ago, our people were numerous and the three great fortuna-class worlds surrounding this Middlekin Star Ruin, along with the ruins itself, all belonged to us. Back then, they were called the Three Greatdragon Stars! But now....”
Long Chen lowered his head and awkwardly smiled, saying, “That rumor is probably false. We all have the heavenly shackles; how could we have ever ruled over fortuna-class worlds? We don’t even have a home. Generation after generation, we’ve been sent to the Middlekin Star Ruins to risk our lives mining middlekin stars for the powerful figures of the three great worlds.”
“The Three Greatdragon Stars?” Tianming fell silent. He knew the stories of their ancestors had to be true. But over time, their descendants had lost the courage to believe in them.
It meant that the Midstar Myriadpath that Myriadpath Valley used to be had probably fallen from somewhere near this Middlekin Star Ruin, but it wasn’t one of the Three Great Dragon Stars. It might be connected, or it might not be.
“Little Chen, you all don’t have a home?” Tianming looked at the determined young boy.
“No, how could we? I was born in this Middlekin Star Ruin, and for years, the people of the Three Great Cults sent us wherever they pleased. My sister led some people in escaping and built a secret base, which we call the Dragonsburrow. But....” Long Chen hesitated and didn’t continue.
“But what?” Tianming placed his hands on Long Chen’s shoulders.
“That place is on the outskirts of this Middlekin Star Ruin. Energy’s extremely thin there, making it very difficult to cultivate. That’s why we often come to steal middlekin stars. Without them, we wouldn’t survive in the Dragonsburrow. So, for us, it’s just a temporary home.” Even then, Long Chen’s expression still carried warmth when he described his home.
“I see.” Tianming nodded. The Upper Star Ruin was vast, and filled with darkness. The three great fortuna-class worlds surrounding them existed, but couldn’t be seen.
