Chapter 1000: Two Qi (I)
"Bright Yang."
With the Wei's Li Family in decline at the time and Buddhist cultivators in the lead, the Northern Buddhists naturally sought to contend for the Fruition Attainment.
Li Zhouwei continued, "So, judging from how things stand now, with the Undefeated King of Brightness dead, it seems the Buddhist cultivators lost in their struggle for Bright Yang."
White Banyan spoke after a long pause. "Correct."
Knowing better than to pry, Li Zhouwei sat quietly on the dharma artifact.
Dingjiao... thought Li Zhouwei.
The Dragon Crown Prince had indeed treated him well, yet Li Zhouwei still harbored deep doubts in his heart. However, he never showed them because of the Dragon Clan’s strength.
The Azure Pond Sect and Luoxia Upper Sect weren’t saints, but was the Dragon Clan any better? Even if the matter of swallowing thunder had yet to be settled, it had been thousands of years and the Dragon Clan’s role has rarely been an honorable one.
The Dragon Clan had begun arranging the swallowing of thunder years ago. How could Dongfang Dingjiao not know that Li Qinghong’s life or death was still uncertain in the sea? Yet the Dragon Crown Prince acted as though nothing was happening as he chatted and laughed warmly.
Li Zhouwei had remained composed during his time in the grand hall, offering an occasional smile. This was already giving Dingjiao enough respect. First, the Dragon Son was of noble status, and second, forming good ties with the Dragon Crown Prince might give Li Qinghong the slightest chance of survival in the matter of swallowing thunder.
