"Imprisoned in the second level of the Dragon Abyss. Why do you ask?" Ao Guang was puzzled.
"I was attacked by the Giant Abyss Demon on the way back to the Dragon Palace with Shen Luo. At that time, I thought the Dragon Abyss had fallen and the demon had escaped," Ao Hong said immediately.
"What did you say?" Ao Guang's expression suddenly became dignified.
The expressions of Yuan Yan and the other officials also changed. They still remembered the time when the Giant Abyss Demon was wreaking havoc in the East Sea. Their eyes could not help but show some panic.
"Are you sure it was the Giant Abyss Demon?" Ao Guang leaned forward slightly and asked with a frown.
"I didn't see wrongly. Fellow Daoist Shen also fought with it and even smashed one of its heads," Ao Hong said.
When everyone heard this, their eyes fell on Shen Luo.
"That demon had a human face and a snake body. One of its heads was a thousand feet in size. It was very powerful. After I smashed one of its heads, it quickly retreated," Shen Luo had to step forward and say.
"What a joke. If it was really the Giant Abyss Demon, how could you defeat it by yourself?" Ao Zhong sneered when he heard this.
The rest of the people also began to talk about it. Their words showed that they did not believe it.
Yuan Yan kept his hands on the side and did not speak. He seemed to be thinking about something.
"There is a powerful restriction in the Dragon Abyss. Moreover, it has been closed for many years. I have never heard of a demon escaping. This time, the Ninth Prince must have encountered some other demon and misunderstood," Mussel Spirit said.
"Everyone, what the two of us have said is absolutely true. If you don't believe it, you can send someone to the depths of the Dragon Abyss to investigate. If the Giant Abyss Demon is gone, it is enough to prove that what we said is true, "Ao Hong said.
"The Dragon Abyss is not a trivial matter. Since Hong 'er said that he was attacked by the Giant Abyss Demon, then he will personally go to the depths of the Dragon Abyss to investigate and find out the truth. The succession of the Dragon King will be discussed after the investigation of the Dragon Abyss is completed, "Ao Guang said after a long silence.
"Father, I want to go with you to investigate." Ao Zhong stepped forward and cupped his fist.
When Ao Guang heard this, his face revealed a look of hesitation.
"Father, if there is a change in the Dragon Abyss, the risk of Ninth Brother going alone is not small. I can also take care of him." Ao Zhong said again.
"I am also willing to go." Qing Chi and Ao Xin said in unison.
"Very well. Since that's the case, the two of you can go together," Ao Guang nodded and said.
"Father, please allow Shen Luo to go with me," Ao Hong said.
"How can the human race set foot in the Dragon Abyss?" Ao Zhong immediately rebuked when he heard that.
"Now that the Demons and Demons are in conflict, why should we differentiate between the human race and the dragon race? Since Little Friend Shen once repelled the giant abyss monster, then let him go with us. Remember, after entering the Abyss, no matter what happens, you must work together, "Ao Guang exhorted.
"As you wish." Ao Hong and Ao Zhong looked at each other and cupped their fists at the same time.
"Alright, go ahead." Ao Guang waved his hand, looking a little tired.
Everyone took the order and left. Except for the Eldest Princess Ao Yue, everyone slowly left the hall.
"Two princes, shall we take Shen Daoyou and Ao Xin to the treasury to choose the treasures?" Yuan Yan raised his two long eyebrows slightly and asked Ao Hong and Ao Zhong for instructions.
Ao Zhong silently nodded his head.
"Thank you for leading the way, Uncle Yuan," Ao Hong said.
The old Prime Minister turned and walked in front with a smile, leading them all the way to the back of the Xiushui Palace.
Shen Luo had some doubts in his heart. He wanted to ask Ao Hong directly, but after thinking about it, he sent a voice transmission to Qing Chi.
"Brother Qing Chi, what happened to Ao Hong three hundred years ago? Why was he stationed outside the Luhua Palace and only returned to the Dragon Palace now? "
Hearing Shen Luo's question, Qing Chi was silent for a long time before he said, "You two are good friends, this matter … It is better to ask him directly."
"Elder Brother Qing Chi, that's too much of an outsider. Just now when I saw someone mention this in the hall, Ao Hong's face was a little strange. It seems that this matter has a great impact on him. If it is something sad, how can I take the risk to ask him? Don't you think so? "Shen Luo smiled embarrassedly.
"You are so thoughtful … This matter is indeed a sad matter, back then …" Qing Chi suddenly understood.
From Qing Chi's slow narration, Shen Luo gradually understood the general context of the matter. It turned out that three hundred years ago, the West Sea tried to marry the Eleventh Princess, the pearl of the Dragon King of the West Sea, to the East Sea.
The Dragon King of the East Sea naturally agreed, and at the request of the Dragon King of the West Sea, he married the Eleventh Princess to the Ninth Prince Ao Hong. The two could be said to be a perfect match.
It was originally a great thing, but unfortunately, when it came to Ao Hong, it was rejected by him. There was no other reason other than that his heart already belonged to someone else, and he had tied the knot with her.
The person whom Ao Hong loved was called "Ying 'er", who was a spirit transformed from a jellyfish. Although she was born smart and beautiful, it was difficult for her to enter the eyes of the Dragon Palace due to her low bloodline, and she was not allowed by the Dragon King.
At that time, Ao Hong had a high prestige in the Dragon Palace and was regarded as the next Dragon Palace Master. However, because of this matter, he fell out with the Dragon King directly.
"At that time, in order to force the Ninth Prince to submit, the Dragon King even imprisoned Ying 'er. However, the Ninth Prince's attitude was so tough. He did not care about the overall situation of the Dragon Palace and the relationship between the East Sea and the West Sea. He directly broke the cage and rescued his sweetheart. He fought all the way out of the Dragon Palace and went to live elsewhere," Qing Chi transmitted.
Shen Luo's face did not show the slightest change, but he was secretly cheering in his heart, "Screw the overall situation, screw the relationship between the East Sea and the West Sea … The world is big, but my heart's desire is the biggest."
This situation was not like the time when the Nie family came to force the marriage, but the situation seemed to be worse.
"If this is the end of the matter, it is not a big deal. But then that thing happened, which caused the Ninth Prince to leave the Dragon Palace directly and did not return for three hundred years. Even his cultivation realm fell into a bottleneck and could not break through, "Qing Chi continued.
"Could it be that Miss Ying 'er …" Shen Luo had vaguely guessed the truth.
"You guessed right. Later, the place where the Ninth Prince lived was attacked by demons. In order to save the Ninth Prince, Ying 'er was imprisoned by the demons. The Ninth Prince went back to the Dragon Palace to ask for help. He knelt and begged for three days, but the Dragon King did not agree. Instead, he was met with a remnant soul of Ying 'er who came to see him for the last time. Since then, he almost broke with the Dragon Palace and went to the Luhua Palace and never came back. I don't know if the Dragon King regretted it or something else, but later, he sent a group of people from the Dragon Palace to the Luhua Palace, "Qing Chi continued.
After hearing this, Shen Luo could not help but sigh in his heart. He really felt sorry for Ao Hong and Ying 'er.
"Speaking of which, this Miss Ying 'er has something to do with you," Qing Chi suddenly said.
"Something to do with me?" Shen Luo was surprised.
"Do you still remember the Green-eyed Golden Toad in the sinkhole in Dali Mountain?" Qing Chi asked.
"Could it be that the person Ao Hong went to Dali Mountain alone to find the Green-eyed Golden Toad to save was this Miss Ying 'er?" Shen Luo was slightly surprised and asked.
"Yes, it is her," Qing Chi quickly gave a definite answer.
After hearing this, Shen Luo sighed in his heart.
