Rebirth of the Prime Dragon Master
Chapter 1907 A Risky Proposal

"l have been traveling in pursuit of an opportunity to make a name for myself. When I heard thatyour clan was holding a spiritual root test that could ensure the entrance to the holy land of thespiritual race called the Ethereal Valley, I came here to try my luck,” Rocky readily replied. Althoughhe had made-up answers, they weren't entirely a lie.

The young master interviewed him some more, and Rocky calmly responded to all his queries.When the young master had finished talking to him, he turned to Vivian and asked the same seriesof questions. She gladly answered each one just as well.

The young master looked surprised as he heard their stories. He then turned to glance at Vivian andRocky and finally asked, "Are you both willing to join our clan?"

"It would be an absolute honor!" Rocky uttered sincerely.

Meanwhile, Vivian opted to nod in response instead.

"Very well. From now on, you are members of the Wankong Clan. As such, you must dedicateyourselves to our clan till the end of your lives. Bear that in mind, for our clan allows no betrayal.”The young master made sure he was heard loud and clear as he made the declaration."Understood! Thank you, young master.” Rocky made an obeisance by cupping his hands. It seemedthat their plan went quite smoothly. The only thing that confused him at the moment was thatneither the middle-level Spiritual Emperor nor the young master disclosed the level of his spiritualroot to him or the public.

Of course, along with the other candidates, Rocky felt baffled. Nonetheless, since the young masterhad already announced his qualification, no one dared to raise a question.

"Now, both of you, come with me.” The young master motioned for Rocky and Vivian to follow him.Without a second thought, they went with him, leaving behind the other candidates who still gazedat each other in confusion.

"That does sound like great news. However, making sure that he truly is a chosen one would requirea series of tests. I'm afraid we don't have enough time in our hands for that right now."

"Indeed. If this happens to be a mistake, it will only disgrace our clan!”

"That's true. We must treat this with extreme caution.”

The elders and officials started discussing among themselves. Most of them believed that it wasquite unlikely that they could really have enough luck in replaceing the chosen ones.

"You all make a good point, but that is the very reason why I want to arrange for him and the othercandidates to enter the forbidden area of our clan. If he can take our clan's holy treasure from there,it will be enough proof that he is indeed a chosen one. We all know that the holy treasure is derivedfrom the Ethereal Valley. If his spiritual root is truly above the Heaven Stage, then he must have thepower to wield it. Besides, no one in our clan was able to do that in the past several hundred years.This could finally be our great chance in the upcoming quest to the Ethereal Valley!" The youngmaster did his best to persuade them with his proposal.

"That is too risky. We can't possibly let this guy enter the forbidden area before we can even replaceout his background. If he was sent by other clans, we'd be humiliated!"

"Young master, while that's a good idea, it might also put us in grave danger!”

"Chief, please consider everything before you make a decision.”

Obviously, most of the elders and officials supposed that the young master's proposal was quiterisky. After all, they knew nothing of the background of those two candidates, so they couldn'tsimply allow them to enter their clan's forbidden area. After all, if their holy treasure got stolen, theywould suffer a heavy loss.

"Are you absolutely certain about this?" The patriarch seemed to be deep in thought when he askedthe young master.

"No, not at all. Even so, I'm afraid this person is the last ray of hope for our clan. Father, you knowhow much our clan struggled to maintain parity with the four greatest clans. If we do not gainanything in the quest to the Ethereal Valley, we are sure to be subject to losing our place amongthem," the young master expressed bluntly. It was no secret that their clan was no longer in thesame league as the other four great clans.

"You're right. We practically have no other choice now. In order to maintain our status, we might aswell take this risk," Richard uttered firmly.

"C-chief!"

Many of the elders and officials reacted emotionally. They could not feel that it was their bestoption.

"Alright. I shall bring them to see you right away,” the young master immediately suggested.

"No, there's no need for that. This matter falls on you now. Whatever the result is, remember tokeep a low profile. If he truly is a chosen one, there's no way that the other four clans won't try totake him from us once they replace out about him," Richard dutifully reminded.

“Understood.”

The young master instantly went on his way.

The next day, the young master rode on a luxury carriage pulled by spiritual beasts and arrived atthe courtyard where Rocky and Vivian stayed.

Before he even reached the gate, Rocky and Vivian already sensed his arrival from a distance. With ablank face, Rocky slowly opened the door and stepped out.

"Sir! What brings you here?" Rocky greeted, feigning surprise.
