Chapter 1295 Traitor

While they waited for the food, Yuan asked Liang Xiaosheng, "Tell me a little about your family's history."

Liang Xiaosheng quickly replied, "Our family has a lineage dating back to the Primordial Era. If there's any specific aspect you'd like to learn about, please feel free to ask, and I'll do my best to provide the information."

Yuan clarified, "I'm interested in the history of this specific branch of your family, not your entire family lineage."

"Oh, if that's the case, then our Azure Dragon Family came down to the Third Heaven shortly after the Divine Heavens was split into nine separate realms at the end of the Immortal Monarch's Era."

Liang Xiaosheng continued in a dispirited manner, "Well, when I say we 'came down,' it's more like we were exiled by the main branch. Our bloodlines were considered weak and unfit to stay in the upper heavens, so we were basically cast out."

Hearing this, Yuan couldn't help but ask, "Do you hold a grudge against the main branch for their decision? For kicking you down here?"

Liang Xiaosheng immediately shook his head, "Of course not! That'd be outrageous! We bear no grudge against the main branch because we understand that our own limitations led to our exile down here. Compared to those in the main branch, we're practically just humans with unique features. We simply don't deserve to remain up there."

"Moreover, if someone with a strong bloodline is born in our family, we can always send them to the upper heavens, where they can receive proper nurturing. So, we're not completely confined to the lower realms."

Another idea came to Yuan when he heard such words, and he asked, "What if — and this is purely just me thinking out loud, but what if I could improve your bloodline and help you ascend?"
