Shen Luo turned his gaze and looked at Dragon King Ao Guang. Then, he shifted his gaze and pointed at a person behind him.
"That person is … Princess Royal Ao Yue."
"What …" Everyone in the hall was shocked when they heard this.
"What nonsense are you talking about? How could it be Princess Royal?" The mussel boss was shocked.
"How dare you, human! Don't talk nonsense!" General Jie's eyes widened as he rebuked angrily.
It was no wonder that these people had such a big reaction. It was because Princess Royal Ao Yue held a high position in their hearts. After Ao Hong left the Dragon Palace, the one in charge of the defense of the Dragon Palace was not Second Prince Ao Zhong, but Princess Royal Ao Yue.
This Eldest Princess was different from the other delicate dragon girls. She had liked weapons and armor since she was young. She was also extremely talented in cultivation. She was born from the same mother as the Third Prince, Ao Bing. The siblings were the Twin Jade Annulus of the Dragon Palace.
Ao Bing's cultivation talent was very high, even better than Ao Hong's. He was the successor of the Dragon Palace. Unfortunately, before he could grow up, he had a conflict with Li Jing's son, Nezha, and was killed.
Since then, Princess Royal Ao Yue had been more diligent in her cultivation. She had fought for the Dragon Palace many times and protected the peace of the East Sea. Therefore, she had an excellent reputation and high prestige in the entire East Sea.
Compared to the angry reaction of the crowd, Ao Yue looked calm. She looked directly at Shen Luo, as if Shen Luo was not pointing at her and was not talking about her.
"Little friend Shen, Ao Yue is the Princess Royal of the Dragon Palace. If you don't have evidence, you can't accuse her. Even if you are Hong 'er's friend, you can't talk nonsense like this, right?" Ao Guang narrowed his eyes slightly and looked coldly at Shen Luo.
"Of course. How can I accuse others for no reason? Everyone knows how powerful the restriction formation in the Dragon Abyss is. If it is not the bloodline of the Dragon Tribe, how can the seal be loosened and the demon be released? "Shen Luo said calmly under everyone's gaze.
"Even so, you can't be sure that the person who loosened the seal is Princess Royal, right?" General Jie said.
"Actually, the reason why I believe it was done by the eldest princess is because it told me." Shen Luo rubbed his fingers as he spoke, and a dot of light lit up on his fingertips. Then, a long black stick as thick as a child's arm extended from it, and revealed its true form.
"This is …" Everyone was puzzled.
Only Dragon King Ao Guang's expression changed immediately. His eyes were filled with shock.
"The Sea Subduing Steel Staff. You actually have the ability to subdue this staff?" Ao Yue's expression immediately changed.
"What? Isn't this the treasure guarding the Dragon Abyss? How dare you take it out without permission? "General Jie's eyes widened as he questioned loudly.
"When we were in the Dragon Abyss, the Rain Master suddenly broke free and we were in a desperate situation. It was because Brother Shen was able to shake this Sea Suppressing Wrought Iron that we were able to kill the Rain Master with the power of this treasure. Otherwise, it would have been difficult for us to escape." Seeing this, Ao Hong took the initiative to explain for Shen Luo.
"Even so, this treasure of the Dragon Palace can't be taken away just like that, right?" Elder Clam said anxiously.
"This treasure is extraordinary. We can't just give it away," another minister of the Dragon Palace said.
The rest of the people also spoke one after another. They did not want the Sea Suppressing Wrought Iron Staff to fall into Shen Luo's hands.
Shen Luo did not want to take the treasure away just like that. However, he had already refined part of it previously, and this thing had some connection with him. He could not bear to give it up just like that.
Everyone focused their attention on Dragon King Ao Guang, waiting for him to make a decision.
"The Sea Suppressing Wrought Iron Staff was made based on the Sea Stabilizing Divine Needle. Like the Divine Needle, it was made by the Grand Supreme Elderly Lord. It is a supreme artifact with its own spirituality. It will definitely not recognize a mortal as its master. Since he could get the Wrought Iron Staff to recognize him as its master, there must be a special opportunity. Moreover, the Sea Suppressing Wrought Iron Staff was originally made to suppress the Rain Master. Since the Rain Master was destroyed by him, let him go, "Ao Guang said after a moment of silence.
Although everyone still felt that it was inappropriate, and although there were whispers, no one objected directly. The majesty of the Dragon Palace Lord was evident.
"You said that the Sea Suppressing Wrought Iron Staff told you. Could it be that this thing really has a spirit and can tell right from wrong?" General Jie asked.
"General Jie, you must be joking. Although this staff is magical, it has not reached the point where it can speak human language," Shen Luo said with a smile.
"Shen Daoyou, don't keep us in suspense. Hurry up and tell us what's going on," Qing Chi could not help but ask anxiously.
"Everyone, please wait for a moment. You will know when you see it."
Shen Luo did not delay any longer. He held the Sea Suppressing Wrought Iron Staff in his hand and circulated the Yellow Court Scripture in his body. Strands of mana flowed into the staff, and the long staff suddenly shone brightly, emitting waves of water-like halos.
At the same time, a faint wisp of blood vapor began to rise from some of the indentations on the staff. It turned into a wisp of red vapor and floated in the air. It floated in front of everyone one by one, and finally slowly flowed towards Ao Yue.
"Since this Wrought Iron Staff is the key to suppressing the Rain Master, why does it only contain the bloodline aura of Princess Ao Yue? If so, who else could it be but her who destroyed the prohibition? "Shen Luo asked.
When that wisp of Blood Qi flowed past them, everyone had also checked it out. Every single one of them was greatly shaken, and all of them looked at Ao Yue in silence.
"Yue 'er …" Ao Guang said in a low voice.
"I did it." Ao Yue walked forward and bowed to Ao Guang with her fists clasped and nodded.
Seeing her admit her guilt so easily, not only was Shen Luo shocked, but even the other people in the Dragon Palace were so shocked that they were speechless for a long time.
"Eldest Princess, how could …"
"Why …"
"Why would the Eldest Princess collude with the Demons?"
…
After a while, the questioning voices in the surroundings became louder and louder, and gradually, there was a momentum of boiling.
"Why did you do this?" Ao Guang asked in a low voice.
"I just feel indignant. The fate of our Dragon Clan should not be like this." Ao Yue bowed for a long time and did not get up.
"How can the fate of our Dragon Clan be judged by you?" Ao Guang said with a trace of regret on his face.
"Father, when the Yellow Emperor fought with Chi You in Zhuolu, our ancestor Ying Long followed him to fight. He cut through all obstacles and had outstanding military achievements. What was the result in the end? What did his descendant get? Nothing. Instead, he became a prison guard who guarded the prisoners. "Ao Yue still did not raise her head and argued.
"Prisoners? Prison guard? Is this how you see the mission of our Dragon Clan? "Ao Guang frowned and asked in return.
"It is not me who sees it that way. It is the Celestial Court who sees it that way … When have they ever cared about the feelings of our Dragon Clan? Back then, Jinghe Dragon King only made a small mistake and was caught to the Dragon Slaying Platform to be slashed. How miserable was his end? At that time, you and the other uncles had all petitioned the Celestial Court to plead on his behalf. What was the result? "Ao Yue said with gritted teeth.
When everyone heard this, the discussion from just now gradually died down. They could not help but think about this matter.
Shen Luo also felt helpless when he thought about Jinghe Dragon King.
