Note: Although the plot is very clear, I must reiterate that there is no blood relation between Lanling and Lankou.

...

Lanling said, "Get out!"

Shi Yiyue coldly stared at Lanling and Lancome for a while, then backed out.

Lanling said, "Remember my words, Yao Xing embodies the chaotic will of the Ancient Gods and Demons and the Ancient Dragon. Don’t flatter yourselves. Let your council members talk to me."

Shi Yiyue left without a word.

Only Lanling and Lancome remained in the room.

Lancome struggled slightly, trying to break free from Lanling’s embrace, but Lanling held her tighter, pressing his palm against her abdomen, teasing her, almost playfully.

Lancome seemed a bit uneasy; during their years on Earth, although there was mutual affection, they behaved very properly, barely even holding hands.

"I find it hard to imagine how to live in such an environment for three thousand years," Lanling said.

Lancome said, "It’s not that bad, since there is internal reincarnation. From birth to adulthood to old age and death, each cycle lasts about a hundred or a hundred and fifty years. To trigger new inspiration, many things have to be relearned from scratch. In energy research, someone might suddenly move in a different direction at a certain time. I’m quite special, as I retain a certain memory after each coming of age, that is, the memory of you, very vividly. As for the memory of the Dragon Emperor, it’s very vague."

Lanling said, "The Lunar Holy Palace has ulterior motives!"

"Yes, they do have ulterior motives," Lancome said.

Lanling said, "Does everyone in the Lunar Holy Palace reincarnate?"

"No, strictly speaking, only citizens of the sixth class or above have the privilege of reincarnation. I’m quite exceptional," Lancome said, "and each time, many people are denied reincarnation qualifications."

"Even so, the class solidification of the lunar super civilization has become appallingly severe," Lanling said. "Higher classes remain high, while lower classes remain low. No wonder there has been no major breakthrough in the energy civilization for tens of thousands of years."

"Yes, class solidification," Lancome said, "but only this way can this civilization run stably for tens of thousands of years. Otherwise, it would have long been torn apart by civil wars."

Lanling acknowledged this point; although class solidification leads to slow progress, it allows for a relatively stable structure. Especially in the lunar super civilization, where the Supreme Temple Council holds all power, it allows the world to run smoothly for countless years.

Then, Lancome suddenly asked, "How long have you been on the Dragon Demon Planet?"

"You don’t know?" Lanling asked in surprise. "It was you who had Yao Xing bring me here."

Lancome said, "I’m completely ignorant of the time conversion between Earth and here."

Lanling said, "I’ve been here for about thirteen years."

"Only thirteen years?" Lancome said incredulously. "And you’ve already unified the entire Dragon Demon Planet? You’re amazing."

Then Lancome asked, "Have you married on the Dragon Demon Planet?"

Lanling nodded and said, "Yes, and not just one or two, not even just four or five, but many."

As he said this, Lanling felt quite embarrassed.

Lancome remained devoted, while he was so widespread.

"Amazing, my little brother is indeed popular with girls," Lancome said with a gentle smile, seemingly proud rather than angry or jealous.

This left Lanling even more bewildered.

However, this was quite normal, as each life reset by the Sky Holy Palace erased Lancome’s memory except her memory of Lanling at a certain age.

For dozens of lives, Lanling was her only consistent memory.

Thus, their original familial bond had already been very strong, now it was entirely a matter of belief. In Lancome’s heart, Lanling was her lover, family, brother, and even half a son.

So a devoted sister hearing her brother is liked by many girls would inevitably feel proud.

...

As expected, it wasn’t until three hours later that the Lunar Holy Palace sent someone.

It was a meticulously groomed woman, incredibly beautiful, yet her hair was cut very short and styled precisely, held in place with hair gel. She wore a unisex uniform, with a silver moon emblem embedded in the collar.

Upon entering, she immediately sensed a whiff of hormones, but coolly glanced at Lancome, showing a distinct sense of superiority.

"Only inferior beings indulge in such lowly reproductive behaviors," the woman said, "I am Tang Mo, assistant to Ms. Bai Ling, the deputy member of the Supreme Temple Council, and an eighth-level citizen of the lunar super-energy civilization."

Lanling coldly replied, "I wanted a Temple Priest to negotiate with me."

Tang Mo said, "I am a priest as well, aren’t I? An apprentice priest is still a priest. Please believe that I have accumulated millennia of wisdom, and negotiating with you is already a climb for you. Moreover, I must tell you, this negotiation with me is of the highest standard!"

Lanling said, "Is this sense of superiority also a negotiation tactic of yours? Overpowering me with your demeanor, making me, the Chaos Emperor, instinctively feel inferior."

Tang Mo said, "My sense of superiority is merely an instinctive reaction. Just as humans feel disdain when witnessing two dogs mating on the roadside."

"Haha, you constantly proclaim yourselves as a superior civilized race," Lanling asked, "Then let me ask you, regardless of whether it’s the Demon Race or humans, aren’t they descendants of Ancient Gods and Ancient Dragons?"

"Yes," Tang Mo said, "Your Earth has the legend of Nuwa creating humans, and we also originated from the Dragon Demon Planet. Countless years ago, the Ancient Dragon and Ancient Gods used their bloodline to create humans and the Demon Race, heavily referencing Earth’s humans because they hastily created humans and the Demon Race, so they could only copy them."

Lanling said, "Is Yao Xing the chaotic will of Ancient Dragons and Ancient Gods? Then, as the master of Yao Xing, am I also the monarch of your lunar super-energy civilization? As the Chaos Emperor, am I not only the emperor of the Dragon Demon Planet but also the emperor of your lunar super civilization?"

The deputy member’s assistant, eighth-level citizen, androgynous beauty Tang Mo looked at Lanling for a long time, then sniggered, immediately covering her mouth, and couldn’t help but laugh again, then within seconds completely stopped, replacing it with a cold poker face.

"Let me give you an analogy!" Tang Mo said, "In your Earth’s China history, there was the 800-year Zhou Dynasty, where the Zhou Son of Heaven was the common ruler. The Heshibi wasn’t a possession of the Zhou Son of Heaven but was excavated by the people of Chu and later transformed into the Jade Seal by Li Si of the Qin Dynasty. After thousands of years of evolution, if someone came to 21st-century China with this Jade Seal, claiming to be a descendant of the Zhou Son of Heaven, thus the ruler of 21st-century China, insisting that everyone bow to him and recognize him as king. Would anyone obey his orders? Would they treat him as a king or a madman? And your current act is exactly like my metaphor."

Lanling said, "What if the descendant of Pangu and Nuwa came? Would humanity recognize them?"

Tang Mo said, "Pangu and Nuwa are merely myths and not real."

Lanling said, "But in this world, Ancient Gods and Ancient Dragons are indeed real. By unrecognizing my status as the master of Yao Xing, you are denying and betraying Ancient Dragons and Ancient Gods, hence denying your creators, disrespecting the Divine Demon and Ancient Dragons!"

Tang Mo was silent for a moment, then raised her head and said, "Exactly, correct! We do want to disrespect the creators, disrespect the Ancient Dragon and God Demon! So what?"

Lanling was completely shocked!

This can no longer be described as heresy; the Lunar Holy Palace has fundamentally denied the creators.

"The master of Yao Xing, in our eyes, is merely a tool with pretentious authority, nothing more," Tang Mo said, "Ancient Dragons and God Demons created humans and the Demon Race. But now, we also create life, and the life we create can even replace most naturally born humans and Demon Race. What defines a god? Creating life and creating excellent life. We have achieved this, so we too are deities. Why should we still worship the Ancient God Demon and Ancient Dragon? We already possess godly power, why must we bow to old gods? It’s like you 21st-century humans being far superior to ancient humans but still worshiping a primitive who just learned to use fire, truly self-degrading!"

Lanling realized, there’s nothing to negotiate anymore.

The other party’s sense of superiority, their superiority complex isn’t fabricated but truly comes from their heart, from their bone.

The other party even denied the Ancient Dragon and God Demon, let alone care about a master of Yao Xing.

The superiority developed over tens of thousands of years is intrinsically impossible to eradicate.

So, there’s no room for negotiation!

Unless the lunar civilization is destroyed, forcing this woman to bow under duress, only then would she lower her high head.

After a long silence, Lanling asked, "What happened to the Ancient Gods and Ancient Dragons?"

"The two creators?" Tang Mo said, "They are dead!"

"How did they die?" Lanling asked.

Tang Mo said, "They died confronting the Void Master, which is why the Dragon Demon Planet faces the destiny of collapse. Abandon the old gods, pledge allegiance to the new gods!"
