While some were happy, others were sad.
In the Dragon Emperor Palace, in a secret room at the bottom of the Relic Pagoda, several Su Lao had ugly expressions. They were discussing important matters, but they were unexpectedly interrupted by the Dragon Emperor Bell.
Immediately, someone came to report what had happened on the river.
"The Water Splitting Spell was activated, and the Dragon Emperor Bell rang? Is this the benefactor of the Dragons, or his descendant? "
A tall, fair-skinned middle-aged man frowned and asked.
He wore a golden silk robe, a jade belt around his waist, and a pair of boots on his feet. There was an ancient-looking long sword hanging on his back.
He was the younger brother of King Dalong Of Zhao, Mu Zhao, and also the second in command in the Dragon Emperor Palace. Now that King Dalong Of Zhao was injured, he should be in charge of day-to-day management. However, because of the great calamity of the Dragons, Long Po, who had been in seclusion for hundreds of years, came out, Mu Zhao was worried about this.
His subordinates were also a little frightened. Someone said worriedly, "If it really is the one from five hundred years ago, we can't afford to offend him. I heard that his swordsmanship is godly, and he can overturn rivers and seas like an immortal. I think … we should postpone our plan?"
"Nonsense!" Someone immediately retorted, "Who dares to disobey the orders of the Lord? Besides, the Second Prince has been planning for so many years. Are we going to fail? "
Someone hurriedly comforted, "Prince, everyone, don't worry. Our lifespan is limited. Five hundred years might be enough for us Dragons. But how can humans live for so long? Even if the one from back then was like a ghost, after five hundred years, he should have turned into a pile of dirt. Why should we be afraid of him? "
The one who used the Water Splitting Spell might not be the benefactor. Maybe he just had some relationship with him and came to the Dragon Emperor Palace to ask for help.
Mu Zhao frowned even more and ordered, "Investigate again!"
Soon, news came. The one who came was Shen Zhenyi, the famous Abandoned Sword Villa of Feilan Province, and also the neighbor of the Dragon Emperor Palace.
Everyone was dumbfounded.
"This person's Sword Dao can be considered profound, which is why he can dominate the Flying Mist State. However, how could it be related to that person from five hundred years ago? He's a country bumpkin from the Nine Serenities! "
"Didn't he go to the Juntian Nine Heavens with the princess? Why are you back so soon? "
The news of the Nine Heavens had yet to reach the Dragon Emperor Palace. Mu Zhao also did not know that Shen Zhenyi had easily subdued Shangguan Bai. He sneered and said, "So it's him. Then there's no need to worry. No matter what, he's just a brute. "
The bloodline of the Dragons had always looked down on humans, not to mention that Shen Zhenyi came from the Nine Serenities and had no foundation.
The people of the Feilan Province guessed that he was so awe-inspiring because he had obtained an ancient inheritance. However, in Mu Zhao's opinion, this was just a temporary pride.
No matter how powerful he was, would he care about the Dragon Emperor Palace? When the disaster came and the Dragon Emperor Palace changed owners, Shen Zhenyi would be helpless.
"Shen Zhenyi somehow obtained the Water Splitting Spell and dared to come to the Dragon Emperor Palace to show off. I'll definitely make him lose face!"
Mu Zhao waved his hand and shouted, "Send orders to prepare a banquet for the Third Young Master Shen. The Grand Ceremony has not started yet, let me play with him! "
At the same time, Cynanchum Chinense and Shen Zhenyi had just arrived at the entrance of the Dragon Emperor Palace.
With the Water Splitting Spell, the two of them walked down smoothly as if they were walking on flat ground.
Cynanchum Chinense was still in a daze.
She was shocked by Shen Zhenyi's ability to split open the river with one word. She walked here in a daze and looked around. She saw the river was like four walls surrounding the two of them, but she couldn't get close to them. The river moved with their steps, always maintaining a distance of about ten feet.
"This Water Splitting Spell is really amazing!"
Cynanchum Chinense reached into the water and found that the current was turbulent, but water was water and there was no change in its nature.
She asked curiously, "Master, with this Water Splitting Spell, wouldn't we be able to roam the world as we please? Can we go to the southern seabed and play? "
Shen Zhenyi smiled and shook his head, "The Water Splitting Spell is not effective everywhere. This Water Splitting Spell is a gift from the Dragon Emperor Palace and is only effective for the river here. It won't work anywhere else."
Dragons were familiar with water and allied with the water in their habitat. Only then could they use the Water Splitting Spell to build a palace underwater.
But the water was ever-changing, and they would have to re-establish their alliance in another place. Only the Lord of the Dragons could command the water in the world to retreat. The Dragon Emperor Palace was only a side branch of the Dragons. They were lucky to be able to control the river.
"So there are regional restrictions …" Cynanchum Chinense was amazed.
While they were talking, they heard the sound of drums and music. The main door of the Dragon Emperor Palace opened, and several luxuriously dressed Dragons Su Lao came out together to welcome them.
The person in front laughed and said, "So it's the Third Young Master Shen of the Abandoned Sword Villa. Please forgive me for not coming out to meet you!"
He was arrogant and respectful, so he was definitely not a good person. Cynanchum Chinense pursed her lips and complained in her heart.
Just now, when they said the name of the Third Young Master Shen on the river, a mere Yaksha patrolling the river dared to refuse them.
Now that Master came knocking on their door, what's the use of being polite?
Sure enough, Shen Zhenyi did not give them any face and just said lightly, "I have already registered on the river. The Abandoned Sword Villa and the Dragon Emperor Palace are good neighbors, so why did you stop me at that time?"
Master, you really asked so directly!
Cynanchum Chinense secretly gave her master a thumbs up in her heart. She admired his style of not hiding things.
The dignified Third Young Master Shen came to visit, and you dared to close the door and not welcome him. Don't think that you can just pretend to be polite and welcome him. No matter what, you have to give an explanation!
The leader Su Lao's expression was slightly sluggish. They had not dealt with Shen Zhenyi before, and Mu Zhao always felt that humans would leave some face for the Dragon Emperor Palace no matter what. He did not expect that the other party would actually directly question them.
This was a little awkward. Everyone could not react for a while, and the scene was silent.
A few of the wavering Su Lao looked down and acted as if it had nothing to do with them. They were happy to see Mu Zhao's party make a fool of themselves.
"There have been a lot of things happening in the Dragon Emperor Palace these days. It must be that the patrolling Aquatic Tribe had eyes but did not recognize Mount Tai. They acted on their own accord and offended the Third Young Master Shen. We will definitely punish them later. The Third Prince, please forgive us … "
The leader Su Lao smiled bitterly. He could only put on a humble attitude and plead for Shen Zhenyi's forgiveness.
The patrolling Aquatic Tribe had just crawled back. They wanted to report to Mu Zhao, but they did not expect to hear that they were going to be severely punished. They were scared out of their wits and went into the palace gate listlessly. They wanted to cry but had no tears.
