It exploded?

Zhao Yi was completely stunned.

Why isn't this following the usual storyline?

According to typical novel plots.

Isn't the Red Gold Dragon supposed to be eaten as a supplement by the real Red Gold Celestial Dragon?

What kind of situation is this explosion?

"Are you sure?" Zhao Yi asked suspiciously.

Miaoyin's eyes swept over Zhao Yi's face, suddenly understanding: "This is your first time seeing the Red Gold Celestial Dragon of the Zhao clan, right?"

Zhao Yi nodded.

Miaoyin nodded: "That's exactly it!"

Zhao Yi became even more confused: "What exactly is it?"

Miaoyin asked: "When you just saw the Red Gold Celestial Dragon, did you feel a sense of familiarity, as if that dragon was affectionate towards you, like you've known it for a long time?"

Zhao Yi's eyes widened: "How do you know?"

Miaoyin: "Because every Zhao clan disciple feels this way the first time they see the Red Gold Celestial Dragon!"

After speaking, she looked at Zhao Yi with a face full of disdain.

"What have you been doing all these years, why don't you know even the most basic things?"

Miaoyin spoke in a serious tone: "The deep-seated familiarity Zhao clan disciples feel the first time they see the Red Gold Celestial Dragon has existed for a thousand years, and this feeling can be traced back to the ancestors of the Zhao clan!"

Looking at Zhao Yi, Miaoyin suddenly asked: "Were you nervously asking me about the Red Gold Celestial Dragon because you suspected it had tampered with your family's bloodline?"

Zhao Yi didn't hide it from her, nodding: "Indeed, I had that feeling! But when you said the Red Gold Celestial Dragon's projection exploded along with the Zhao clan members, I dismissed that thought!"

After speaking, he looked at Miaoyin and said: "I just asked one question about the Red Gold Celestial Dragon, and you guessed my thoughts. Did others have similar suspicions before?"

Miaoyin nodded: "Yes, and many have. If not ten thousand, then at least eight thousand!"

Saying this, Miaoyin looked at Zhao Yi with emotion and said: "The Great Xia Zhao Clan is the most contradictory family in the world! On one hand, you're cursed by your bloodline, and everyone must endure terrible tribulations! On the other, talents abound in your family, with brilliant individuals as numerous as fish crossing a river!"

Miaoyin told Zhao Yi: "The possibility you suspect has been tested countless times by the Zhao family's extraordinary talents."

"And the final result?" Zhao Yi asked.

Miaoyin shook her head: "There's no conspiracy, and there's no scheming! The Dragon God Technique may have taboos, but its flaws are limited by your Zhao clan ancestor's abilities, and it has nothing to do with the Red Gold Celestial Dragon!"

Saying this, Miaoyin seemed to remember something and told Zhao Yi: "Based on millennia of analysis and tests by Zhao clan disciples, there are two different hypotheses regarding the Dragon God Technique and the Red Gold Celestial Dragon. Do you know what they are?"

Zhao Yi became interested and asked: "What are they?"

Miaoyin replied: "These people are divided into two factions: Dragon Race faction and Dragon God faction."

"The Dragon Race faction believes that the Zhao clan ancestor is the Red Gold Celestial Dragon!"

"They think it's impossible for anyone to fully see their entire existence, and the same goes for the Red Gold Celestial Dragon. Hence, the Dragon God Technique it created isn't complete either."

"This faction calls themselves 'Heirs of the Celestial Dragon', and they refer to the Zhao clan as the 'Dragon Race'."

Miaoyin added: "The Dragon Race faction believes the Red Gold Celestial Dragon is the Zhao clan ancestor, which explains why the projection of the Red Gold Celestial Dragon feels familiar towards Zhao clan descendants. They call it 'generation-skipping affection'!"

"Generation-skipping affection?"

Zhao Yi's eyes widened: "The Zhao clan ancestor is the Red Gold Celestial Dragon? All Zhao clan members are Heirs of the Celestial Dragon? This speculation is too bold!"

Miaoyin shrugged: "Although bold, the Dragon Race faction has a set of evidence to substantiate their claims."

Zhao Yi asked: "What evidence?"

Miaoyin's expression turned solemn as she spoke about the Zhao clan's past.

"First, after the Zhao clan ancestor created the Dragon God Technique, they disappeared! Zhao descendants have tried to trace the ancestor's path but could neither discover their origin nor find where they went. It's as if they appeared out of thin air and then vanished in the same manner."

"Second, no one has seen the real Red Gold Celestial Dragon! All the legends about the Red Gold Celestial Dragon came from the Zhao clan ancestor."

"After the Zhao clan obliterated the Heaven-Facing Sect and completed the conquest of the whole world, the Imperial Clan Court sent twelve hundred and sixty-seven Tier Nine Saint King Realm madmen to scour the entire world, attempting to find the Red Gold Celestial Dragon and complete the Dragon God Technique, but ultimately found nothing!"

"The Imperial Clan Court then turned its attention to the Four Seas Dragon Race, but even when the Four Seas Dragon Race was nearly annihilated, they never disclosed the whereabouts of the Red Gold Celestial Dragon!"

"Since then, the Red Gold Celestial Dragon, like the Zhao clan ancestor, has become an unsolved mystery that has perplexed the Zhao clan for a thousand years!"

"Based on this information, the Dragon Race faction speculates the Zhao clan ancestor is the Red Gold Celestial Dragon, and all Zhao clan members are Heirs of the Celestial Dragon!"

Zhao Yi listened, dumbfounded.

This reasoning sounds absurd at first, but upon careful thought... It still seems far-fetched!

Zhao Yi twitched his mouth slightly.

He considers the possibility of the Zhao clan ancestor being the Red Gold Celestial Dragon to be less than one in ten thousand.

Zhao Yi isn't speculating aimlessly.

He's deducing based on the original text.

He's an Awakened, and he's very aware of the background setting in the original text.

This book only wears the guise of fantasy, its core is actually a clichéd romance.

The male and female leads fall in love, the male lead creates a harem.

These plots occupy over ninety percent of the original text's content.

The mystical world is really just the backdrop.

There's no such profound setting at all!
