As he stood proudly in the void, Ao Ye felt his face heat up.
Those strange gazes made him feel uncomfortable.
He coughed lightly and snorted. "I came from afar. Is this how the Divine Firmament Sacred Ground treats its guests?"
The Divine Firmament Sacred Leader's heavenly aura rippled even more intensely.
But his voice remained calm and amiable. "Don't say that. I have already prepared a welcoming banquet. Dragon King, please come in for a chat."
With that, all the Spirit Mountains in the Divine Firmament Sacred Ground lit up with dazzling Spirit Light.
Clouds danced in the sky, cranes flew, and Arowana swam in the streams. It was a beautiful scene.
Of course, Chu Longhe would not dare to act recklessly at such a time. Otherwise, even if the Divine Firmament Sacred Leader was emotionless, he would definitely kill him.
This concerned the sect's honor. It was no small matter!
The Nine Dragons Chariot entered the Divine Firmament Small World, its surging dragon aura filling the sky.
But compared to before, those Dragons seemed a little dejected now. All of them had strange and aggrieved expressions.
Why?
Of course, they were suppressed by seniority!
The Black Dragon King, Ao Ye, was considered very senior in the Dragon race, but even he still had to call Shen Tian Uncle.
What would the other Divine Dragon Guards call Shen Tian? What would they call the Divine Firmament Sacred Ground's elders?
In the end, the other elders were all at least of your grandfather's generation.
Still trying to show off? They couldn't afford to lose that dragon!
...
The Divine Firmament Sacred Ground's welcoming banquet was very grand. After all, they were welcoming the Black Dragon King.
North Sea's Black Dragon Island was on par with Southern Border's Nirvana Ridge. They were both leaders of an entire region.
In comparison, the Divine Firmament Sacred Ground's status was far from Black Dragon Island's. Thus, the Divine Firmament Sacred Ground was very grand in welcoming the Black Dragon King.
But none of the Divine Firmament Sacred Ground's elders felt aggrieved.
On the contrary, everyone felt proud and elated at the banquet.
Why?
Haha, of course it's because the Divine Firmament Sacred Ground had produced such an outstanding Saint, Shen Tian!
Since the beginning of the banquet, the elders had been talking about how good our Saint Son was, how much luck our Saint Son had, how much potential our Saint Son had, and so on.
The Black Dragon Island's Revered Dragons and the Black Dragon King felt a toothache when they heard this.
Of course!
In this kind of holy land reception, if you praise your child for being sensible and hardworking, I will follow your words and praise him, pat his head, and praise him.
However, the current situation was too special. Shen Tian was even more furious than the Black Dragon King, Ao Ye.
Ao Ye couldn't possibly pat Shen Tian's head, smile, and say, "Uncle, you're really talented. You have to work harder in the future and become a Sage as soon as possible!"
That scene was extremely strange just thinking about it!
Auntie Ao Bing, you really found a little ancestor for our Black Dragon race!
…
Of course, it wasn't that there weren't any dragons at the banquet. They felt a little better.
For example, Ao Wu was in a good mood because he was the only one who had to address Shen Tian as Little Grand-Uncle.
Now, a large group of people from the Dragon race had rushed to the Divine Firmament Sacred Ground, and a few of the Divine Dragon Guards were about the same age as him.
Also, those Divine Dragon Guards were much older than him. Even they had to address Shen Tian as Little Grand-Uncle. What pressure did Ao Wu have?
Nothing at all!
As long as others are worse off than me, I feel much better.
After eating and drinking to his heart's content... Yeap, or maybe he was just casually eating, the Black Dragon King left in a hurry.
"Sacred Leader Longyuan, to be honest, I specially came to visit your sacred ground today to bring Auntie Ao Bing back to North Sea."
As the only Rank-9 Black Dragon in 10,000 years, Ao Bing's status in the Black Dragon race was extraordinary and irreplaceable.
Only when she returned to the Dragon race and recovered her cultivation level would she have a chance of defeating the Immortal Phoenix Queen.
Only then would the Black Dragon race have the confidence to suppress North Sea and become the true ruler of North Sea.
And if Ao Bing was left outside, not only would she not be able to recover her cultivation level as quickly as she could on Black Dragon Island, but she would also be in great danger.
After all, although the five regions seemed peaceful on the surface, there were undercurrents surging in the dark. Not every force was willing to see Black Dragon Island rise again.
The Immortal Phoenix Queen might be happy to see her former opponent rise again, but it did not mean that the other Sages in Southern Border would be happy.
Not to mention that the other powerful beings in North Sea might have ulterior motives against the Dragon race.
And the Evil Spirit Sect mighty figures hiding in the dark might also make a move.
Killing a future invincible Dragon Sage was definitely very attractive to the Evil Spirit Sect.
Thus, it was imperative for the Dragon race to bring Ao Bing back!
The Divine Firmament Sacred Leader's heavenly aura rippled gently. "Dragon King, you are too polite. Dragon Lady Ao Bing is your island's Eldest Princess. It is only right for her to return to Black Dragon Island.
"Also, Miss Ao Bing has already signed a Dragon God contract with Tian 'er. My Divine Firmament Sacred Ground welcomes her at any time.
"I hope that in the future, my sacred ground can be friendly with your island. After all, we are one family!"
After all, they were one family!
Ao Ye's mouth twitched. To be honest, he did not really want to admit that they were one family.
However, one should not slap a smiling face. Also, the Divine Firmament Sacred Leader did not place Ao Bing under house arrest. This made Ao Ye heave a sigh of relief.
One had to know that a Rank-9 Black Dragon bloodline was extremely tempting even to sacred grounds.
On a smaller scale, they could steal Ao Bing's Dragon bloodline power to refine supreme-grade pills and Dharma artifacts.
On a larger scale, they could hold Ao Bing hostage and extort a huge amount of treasures from Dragon Island.
In any case, Ao Bing's value was not small. It was indeed very rare that the Divine Firmament Sacred Ground was willing to send her back so easily.
This also made the Black Dragon King's impression of the Divine Firmament Sacred Ground slightly better.
"Then, Auntie Ao Bing, when are we returning to Black Dragon Island?"
Ao Ye turned around and looked at Ao Bing with anticipation. He could not wait to leave.
After all, this was a sacred ground that had twice his seniority. He really did not want to stay a minute longer.
"Returning to Black Dragon Island?"
At this moment, Ao Bing was pouring wine into her mouth.
Hearing that Ao Ye wanted to bring her back, she pouted. "Why? The Dragons on the island are all ugly. Not a single one is good-looking. "
Ao Ye, "..."
Ao Bing hugged Shen Tian's arm and burped. "Shen Tian is very good-looking. I will stay by his side!"
Zhang Yunxi's face gradually darkened. "Dragon Lady, you are too frivolous. Although Junior Brother Shen Tian is your contract partner, it is improper for you to pull him like this."
Ao Bing glanced at Ao Bing and sneered. "Little brat, what's the use of being so tall?
"Your chest is so small, yet you dare to challenge this consort? Why? Do you want to prove that you are poor and evil? "
Sizzle!
The table in front of Zhang Yunxi crackled, and golden lightning danced on the table. "Damn it, you old female Dragon, you are too much!"
The Black Dragon King's face also darkened. "Divine Firmament Saintess, please respect Auntie and be careful with your words."
Zhang Yunxi snorted. "She is the Dragon King's Auntie. She is just my equal."
Ao Ye, "? ...? "
So infuriating! I really want to kill this lass with my dragon breath!
...
The atmosphere, which was gradually getting more and more harmonious, became tense once again.
The Divine Firmament Sacred Leader said helplessly, "Yunxi, don't be rude. Dragon King, Dragon Lady, please calm down.
"Dragon Lady Ao Bing's situation is special. I suggest you return to Dragon Island to recuperate first. After all, your cultivation level is less than 10%.
"Firstly, Black Dragon Island is the Dragon race's ancestral land. It definitely has special methods to help you recover quickly. You can recover faster on Dragon Island.
"Secondly, the news of Miss Ao Bing's rebirth has already spread. I'm afraid there will be people who will harm you.
"Now that our sect has many guests, we may not be able to completely protect Dragon Lady Ao Bing's safety.
"If Dragon Lady Ao Bing is really injured, our sect will not be able to answer to Dragon Island.
"Dragon Island has a strong foundation. Dragon Lady Ao Bing will definitely receive the best protection if she returns.
"Thirdly, Dragon King's visit is the best opportunity for Dragon Lady to return. With your protection, no one will dare to attack."
Seeing that the Divine Firmament Sacred Leader was so cooperative, the Black Dragon King looked "grateful".
Hmph, at least this kid knows what's good for him.
Never mind. Although I had some conflict with my Third Young Master in the past, I'm still young.
It's normal for them to fight. It's not a big deal.
If the Divine Firmament Saint is really talented and Auntie Ao Bing likes him, then I'll give them a chance.
As for seniority...
Eastern Wilderness and North Sea are far apart. At most, I won't come back to Eastern Wilderness in the future. It's not a big deal!
Ao Ye was scheming in his mind!
Ao Bing pursed her lips. "I understand that, but I don't want to go back."
Haha, go back to Dragon Island?
There are so many young dragons who are a few generations younger than me, calling me "Great Grandaunt", "Great Grandaunt", "Great Grandaunt".
It's scary just thinking about it!
I'm clearly still a peerless Dragon Lady in the prime of my life!
I haven't even found a spouse, yet I've become a great grandaunt for no reason. I won't go back, even if I die!
Wouldn't it be better to stay by Shen Tian's side? This kid is pleasing to the eye, and he has so much Divine Juice Wine. I can drink it for free.
Life can't be more comfortable!
Ao Ye, "..."
Why are you still hanging on!?
Why? Is Black Dragon Island not good enough for you?
Ao Ye wanted to cry. "Auntie Ao Bing, what do I have to do for you to agree to go back?"
Ao Bing said, "Why should I go back? The invincible cultivators of Black Dragon Island have all become powerful after roaming the five regions.
"Since I was able to be reborn from the Primordial Battlefield, I will not be afraid of being plotted against by others, nor will I stay in Dragon Island's protection!"
The Divine Firmament Sacred Leader smiled. "Dragon King, if I'm not wrong, Chaotic Star Island will appear in another month, right?"
Chaotic Star Island?
Why did Zhang Longyuan ask about this at this critical juncture?
Ao Ye said coldly, "Yes, but Chaotic Star Island only allows those below 500 years old to enter."
The Divine Firmament Sacred Leader continued. "I heard that only the prodigies of the North Sea divine beast races and their contractors can enter Chaotic Star Island.
"Tian 'er has already signed a contract with Miss Ao Bing. I wonder if he has the right to enter Chaotic Star Island?"
The Divine Firmament Saint wants to enter Chaotic Star Island?
Ao Ye frowned. It should be pointed out that Chaotic Star Island was the mystic realm that the North Sea races valued the most.
It was hidden in the Chaos Array in the depths of North Sea, shrouded in dense chaotic aura. Even Sages could not enter.
Every 300 years, the Chaos Array would experience a "period of fluctuation", and cracks would appear.
Through these cracks, the North Sea prodigies could enter Chaotic Star Island.
There were tens of thousands of mysterious islands, floating above the North Sea like stars, floating and moving.
As long as one could successfully break through the natural restrictions on the surface of the islands and enter the islands, they would be able to obtain large amounts of fortuitous opportunities and treasures on those islands.
Even Sage artifacts, imperial sutras, and extraordinary items had been discovered on those islands more than once.
It could be said that at least 30% of the fortuitous opportunities of the North Sea divine beast races came from there.
Don't underestimate 30%!
It should be pointed out that North Sea was boundless and unfathomable. There were countless fortuitous opportunities and treasures hidden within.
Chaotic Star Island appeared once every 300 years, and each appearance only lasted for about a year.
However, the fortuitous opportunities obtained in just this one year were equivalent to a small portion of what one would obtain in 300 years of adventuring and treasure hunting.
One could imagine how rich the treasures on Chaotic Star Island were. It was terrifying!
...
It should be pointed out that when Ao Bing had been adventuring on Chaotic Star Island, she had swept away many of her peers and obtained many fortuitous opportunities.
It was a pity that Chaotic Star Island had its own rules. All living beings over 500 years old could not enter.
If one tried to force their way in, then the originally dispersed chaotic aura would instantly surge and envelop them.
By then, even if one was extremely powerful, they would be quickly disintegrated by the chaotic aura.
Otherwise, Ao Bing could make another trip to Chaotic Star Island. Perhaps she would obtain some fortuitous opportunities there.
Ao Ye said calmly, "The Divine Firmament Saint is Auntie Ao Bing's contractor. Of course, he has the right to enter Chaotic Star Island.
"However, I'm here to invite Auntie Ao Bing back to the island. If I can't successfully invite Auntie back, I'm afraid I won't be able to return."
What a joke! I'm here to invite Auntie Ao Bing back, not Uncle!
You want to adventure on Chaotic Star Island? Sure, think of a way to persuade Auntie Ao Bing to go back.
Otherwise, if your Saint wants to enter Chaotic Star Island to freeload on fortuitous opportunities... Haha, just freeload on loneliness.
The Divine Firmament Sacred Leader smiled. "That's easy. Tian 'er, follow the Dragon King and send Miss Ao Bing back to Dragon Island!"
With that, the Divine Firmament Sacred Leader looked at Ao Bing. "Dragon Princess, what do you think about letting Tian 'er accompany you?"
Let this kid accompany me?
Ao Bing glanced at Shen Tian and then at Zhang Yunxi, who was gritting her teeth.
A sly and playful smile appeared on her young face. "Since Shen Tian is accompanying me, then sure!"
Zhang Yunxi, "..."
Ao Ye, "???"
She agreed just like that?
I've tried so hard to persuade her for so long, but to no avail.
In the end, just one sentence of "Shen Tian accompanying me" was enough to make Auntie Ao Bing obediently return home?
Indeed, Father's words back then were right. Auntie Ao Bing was a complete and utter beauty complex!
...
The Black Dragon King did not have a good time at this welcoming banquet, so he just turned it into a farewell banquet.
After the banquet, Ao Ye invited Ao Bing and Shen Tian onto the Nine Dragons Chariot, and they rushed back to North Sea.
He did not want to stay in this godforsaken place for even a second longer. After all, the seniority here was too high!
The Nine Dragons Chariot flew into the distance. The Divine Firmament Sacred Leader looked into the distance.
The lightning and heavenly aura around him rippled continuously.
"Tian 'er, I'll wait for your triumphant return at the sacred ground."
