"Dispense with the formalities. The East Sea Dragon Palace is indeed full of talents." Cave Master Rong Xu nodded with a smile.
"Deputy City Lord Xue of Jiuyang City has been invaded by the Corrosive Demonic Qi. We can't delay the rescue of Deputy City Lord Xue. We have to choose elite soldiers to go in with our little friend Dongfang. According to the Dragon King, who should we choose to go with us? "
Cave Master Rong Xu looked at Ao Tong. "Don't worry, Dragon King. As long as you try your best, I'm not an irresponsible person. I won't let the Heavenly Court get angry with the Dragon Palace."
"Thank you, Exalted Immortal. To be honest, if the Dragon Palace sends an army to fight for the Heavenly Court, I won't hesitate. However, I'm really afraid of ruining the Heavenly Court's plan. After all, the consequences are serious if we don't do it well and delay Deputy City Lord Xue's recovery. I'm really worried. " Dragon King Ao Tong was slightly relieved after hearing Cave Master Rong Xu's words. However, he didn't completely believe Ao Tong. If something really went wrong, the Dragon Palace would be blamed.
After pondering for a moment, he said, "The Dragon Clan's resentment in the Dragon Tomb is getting denser and denser. It repels all living beings except the Dragon Clan. The Heavenly Court can use some means to let the Pill Sage Dongfang in. After all, there's no other suitable person who can guarantee the efficacy of the Ksitigarbha Three Yin Water. However, it's really inappropriate to send Sky Immortals other than the Dragon Clan. Not only will they not be able to protect the Pill Sage Dongfang, but they will also put him in more danger. "
"It's not good to send more than four people in at the same time. With the Pill Sage Dongfang as the core, I don't think Ao Shen, Ao Yuan, or Ao Zhan are more suitable. Ao Zhan is the strongest and Ao Yuan is more sensitive to the resentment in the Dragon Tomb. The terrain in the Dragon Tomb is complicated and the Ksitigarbha Three Yin Water isn't constant. If there are changes, the Ksitigarbha Dragon Origin Technique that Ao Shen cultivates will be of great help in finding the Ksitigarbha Three Yin Water. Even the Dragon Clan will only send people in during the Clan Sacrifice. At that time, the resentment is the lowest. Even during the Sacrifice, the Dragon Clan can't send too many people in at once. Even if the Dragon Clan members go in now, the risk is too great. If there's an accident, the plan, at best, the plan will fail, at worst, the whole army will be annihilated. "
"It seems that the Dragon King already has a plan. In that case, I'm relieved."
Cave Master Rong Xu glanced at Ao Shen, Ao Zhan, and Ao Yuan. Amongst the group of Heavenly Immortal dragons before him, their strength was indeed above average. Especially Ao Zhan, even in the entire Honghao Heavenly Court, he was a rare expert. However, Cave Master Rong Xu changed the topic. "However, if you ask me, Ao Shen and Ao Yuan are fine. After all, they aren't weak. They each have their uses in the Dragon Tomb. As for Ao Shen, he is also strong, but he might not be the strongest in the Dragon Tribe."
"Exalted Immortal, you may not know this, but due to the recent changes in the South Sea Dragon Palace, I've already sent a few capable juniors to oversee the situation. The pressure from the South Sea Dragon Palace is extremely great. Only the elite soldiers of the clan can match it. "
Ao Tong said with a bitter expression. "Also, I'm not afraid to tell you the truth, Exalted Immortal. Those guys have also developed some tempers in their previous battles. After entering the dragon tomb, I'm afraid they're not as dedicated as Ao Zhan. I'm sure Exalted Immortal is no stranger to this. "
"Forget it. Let's follow the Dragon King's arrangement. For the time being, the three of them will be entering the dragon tomb with the Pill Sage Dongfang. As for when to enter, I'll think about it carefully. " Cave Master Rong Xu nodded. The Dragon Tribe's Clan Sacrifice was held once every thousand years. At that time, the resentment in the dragon tomb would indeed decrease significantly. However, there were still more than eight hundred years before the next Clan Sacrifice. With Xue Daoyuan's current condition, how could he last that long?
If they really waited until the Clan Sacrifice, regardless of whether Xue Daoyuan died from his injuries or his strength declined to the Golden Immortal realm, it would be a great loss to the Honghao Heavenly Court. Cave Master Rong Xu could understand the difficulties Ao Tong mentioned. The more capable one was, the more arrogant one would be. The Dragon Tribe was more talented in cultivation than most humans.
It was just that they had been suppressed for so many years. However, those who had already gained experience discovered that the vast majority of human immortals who were inferior to them were actually superior to them. Thus, they had to do some of the dirty and tiring work, but in the Immortal Realm, they were treated with even more suspicion and vigilance. Those who were the strongest were naturally unhappy, which became the source of the resentment in the dragon tomb. Even for Ao Tong, being able to cultivate to his current level, the resentment in his heart was no less than the other Dragon Tribes. In fact, it was even more difficult to resolve. However, Ao Tong knew that if the East Sea Dragon Palace wanted to continue to exist, they had to endure the humiliation. Otherwise, the East Sea Dragon Palace would only continue to decline without a leader.
"Alright, the Dragon Palace is ready. We're just waiting for the Exalted Immortal's order. A few juniors can set off at any time to assist the Pill Sage Dongfang." Ao Tong quickly responded.
"Thank you, Dragon King." Cave Master Rong Xu raised his cup to toast Ao Tong. Regardless of whether the other party had resentment in his heart, it was enough for Cave Master Rong Xu as long as he could do things clearly.
For so many years, the Dragon Tribe's strength had been limited to a certain extent. Under the huge Heavenly Court, there was no room for them to turn the situation around. In the entire East Sea, the East Sea Dragon Palace was indeed the main force. However, the Heavenly Court also supported a few other sea demon tribes as constraints to monitor the existence of the East Sea Dragon Palace.
"You're too kind, Exalted Immortal. It's my duty to contribute to the Heavenly Court." Ao Tong smiled.
Lu Xiaotian looked at the conversation between Cave Master Rong Xu and the Dragon King of the East Sea and shook his head secretly. It seemed that the Dragon Tribe's position in the Heavenly Court was more awkward than he had imagined. The Dragon King of the East Sea was so careful with Cave Master Rong Xu. After all, the other party had a status recognized by the Heavenly Court. Lu Xiaotian, who started from scratch, would most likely not be able to escape death once he was discovered.
In this way, Lu Xiaotian was not too worried about the Dragon Tribe. Perhaps his situation would be worse than theirs in the future.
After the banquet, Lu Xiaotian, Mu Xia, and Heavenly Marquis Nie were each arranged to a luxurious residence in the Dragon Palace. There were groups of maidservants outside waiting to be summoned. Ao Tong was meticulous in taking care of this aspect.
As soon as the banquet ended, Lu Xiaotian found Cave Master Rong Xu and said, "Senior, this Dragon Tomb is more dangerous than I imagined. The Wind Five Spirit Diagram belongs to Mu Xia. It's not good for me to keep using her self-defense item. Since the Heavenly Court has appointed me to enter the Dragon Tomb, there must be other arrangements."
"Of course there are. Little friend Dongfang, you've always been calm before. Why are you a little confused now? Do you suspect that the Heavenly Court will really send you to your death in the Dragon Tomb?" Cave Master Rong Xu laughed.
