Watching Wei Chaoran leave, Chen Luoyang seemed to be deep in thought.
As one of the two commanders of the Eastern Zhou Army other than the royal family, Wei Chaoran, who had been in the army for half his life, was undoubtedly not afraid of death.
Xu Peng was stronger than him and could not make him compromise.
At most, he would kill Han Mei and Xu Peng would kill him.
It seemed like a fight of pride, but it was not worth it.
But if Wei Chaoran did not even have this bit of courage, it would be difficult for him to bravely advance to the 18th level, the peak of the Martial Sage Realm.
However, compared to his personal honor and death, Wei Chaoran had more important things at the moment. So, facing the Dragon King Xu Peng, he finally gave in and retreated.
This Dingyuan General of Eastern Zhou cared more about the Wei Clan's inheritance and prosperity.
After hundreds of years of hard work, the Wei Clan had finally reached unprecedented prosperity in his hands. In Wei Chaoran's eyes, this was his greatest pride and achievement in life.
Moreover, there might even be a better future waiting for the Wei Clan.
His two sons, Wei Ling and Wei Zheng, were dragons and phoenixes among men. Their futures were bright and promising, and they had already shown signs of surpassing their parents.
If the Wei Clan managed well in the future, it was not impossible for a Martial Venerable to emerge.
When that time came, the Wei Clan would be in a completely different situation.
But before that, they still had to work carefully and endure hardships.
Right now, the Wei Clan was at an unprecedented peak. But the danger behind the glory was also shocking, as if they were walking on thin ice.
In recent years, their situation in Eastern Zhou had become more and more awkward.
And other places seemed to be secretly paying attention to the Wei Clan.
If they were careless and made a wrong move, all their previous efforts would be wasted, and they might even be beyond redemption.
The next few years were the most critical period for the Wei Clan.
Just like going through a tribulation, success would be like a carp leaping through the dragon's gate. But if something went wrong, it might not be as simple as a great loss of vitality.
As the current head of the Wei Clan, Wei Chaoran was especially vigilant.
Although he had long heard of the Dragon King Xu Peng's reputation, the two had never had direct contact.
Today, when they met for the first time, after a simple exchange, Wei Chaoran was convinced that not only was Xu Peng's reputation unfounded, but many rumors were not enough to describe his strength.
This youth of similar age to Wei Ling was even more terrifying than the rumors.
If the Eastern Zhou Royal Family did not intervene, Xu Peng would be able to wipe out the entire Wei Family under the current circumstances.
It was often said that the Dragon King was a man of his word and that he would keep it. This was supported by an extremely strong force.
In Wei Chaoran's opinion, Xu Peng's position as one of the younger generation's Red Dust Ten Heroes was no longer worthy of him.
Just like the Empress of Dongzhou, the weight of such a person could no longer be measured by age or seniority.
If the other party resorted to unscrupulous means, their destructive power would be too shocking, and the Wei Clan would not be able to withstand it.
Or, it could be said that even if the Wei Clan was destined to fight to the death, or even to the point of destruction, it was not worth it to fight to the death for a single Han Mei.
Wei Chaoran quickly calmed his mind.
Although he was somewhat unwilling, he decisively let go of Han Mei and retreated by himself.
Chen Luoyang was observing Grand General Wei's thoughts from the side.
Previously, he had helped to save Han Mei's life as a test. Now, it seemed that Wei Chaoran's intentions were not without reason.
As for the number one direct disciple of Azure Dragon Island, Xu Peng …
Chen Luoyang glanced at him.
His strength was indeed extraordinary. Without moving the Azure Dragon Ten Absolutes, he easily locked the Dragon-Tiger Seven Sacred Spear of Wei Chaoran, who was also an expert of the eighteenth realm, with his bare hands.
Whether Zheng Chi, who had cultivated "Nuwa", could do it so easily and easily to make Wei Chaoran retreat in the face of difficulties was still a question mark.
However, compared to his strength, Chen Luoyang paid more attention to Xu Peng's style of doing things.
Azure Dragon Island was indeed one of the holy lands of the demonic path.
"Dragon King" Xu Peng perfectly displayed the temperament of his sect.
At the same time, he was cold and closed off, overbearing and fierce, not taking human life seriously.
Compared to the various rumors of his master, Island Master Bao Lvqi, in the mortal world, it perfectly matched.
The Island Master of Azure Dragon Island would only act like a kind old lady in front of the Demon Lord and his close disciples …
However, Xu Peng was a man of his word, and his actions were aboveboard. Apart from being aloof and cold, he also revealed the arrogance in his heart.
Unfortunately, his contact with him was still limited, and he could not see anything valuable for the time being.
Chen Luoyang thought quickly in his heart.
Han Mei thanked Xu Peng, "Thank you, Dragon King. Fortunately, you are here."
Xu Peng said calmly, "Master summoned Junior Sister Han, but we lost contact, so I came to see if you were also separated?"
"Yes, we happened to run into the dark sea rising from the ground and swallowing the mountains." Han Mei smiled bitterly, "I was separated from my sister, and I don't know where she is now."
Xu Peng nodded, "It's okay, I will continue to look for you. You should come with me, lest Junior Sister Han has to look for you after we find her."
"Thank you, Dragon King, for your care." Han Mei had seen Xu Peng before, and knew that he did not care about the so-called Dragon Slaying Formula.
In the eyes of the Dragon King of Azure Dragon Island, the Dragon Slaying Formula was only a martial art. Whether it could slay a dragon or not depended on who the dragon was.
"Thank you, Taoist Priest, for your help just now." Han Mei thanked the Half Sea Taoist that Chen Luoyang had transformed into.
It was true that Wei Chaoran could not defeat Xu Peng.
But it was not difficult for the top powerhouse of East Zhou to take her life.
Although the Dragon King did not care about the Dragon Slaying Formula, he would not pay special attention to her.
His fellow disciple was the "Jade Dragon" Han Zheng, not her.
Today's rescue was only to find her sister's whereabouts.
It was not a big deal for Xu Peng if something really happened to Second Miss Han.
Of course, the Dragon King was a man of his word. If Wei Chaoran really dared to make a move, he would kill Wei Chaoran on the spot, and then look for Wei Ling and Wei Zheng.
But the problem was that even if the entire Wei Family was annihilated at that time, it would be impossible for Second Young Lady Han to survive.
Therefore, Han Mei was also grateful to Daoist Halfsea, who had helped to pressure Wei Chaoran and persuaded him to give up.
"You're welcome, I just happened to be here." The Half Sea Taoist smiled slightly.
Xu Peng's gaze fell on the Half Sea Taoist.
His gaze was more penetrating than Wei Chaoran's.
"We've met before." Although Xu Peng said so, there was a rare hint of doubt in his tone.
Chen Luoyang thought, You should have seen the White Jade Dragon Bone that Azure Dragon Island Lord offered to me.
The Half Sea Taoist's expression was calm, but there was a mysterious smile on his face. "I'm also a 'dragon', but I'm different from the direct disciple of Azure Dragon Island, Benefactor Xu."
Xu Peng looked at the Half Sea Taoist from head to toe and did not say anything.
"The Dark Sea fluctuates, and the danger can be big or small. Since you want to find your fellow disciples, I won't disturb you anymore. Let's part here, and I believe we will meet again," the Half Sea Taoist said with a smile.
Xu Peng looked at him again, and then nodded. "See you."
After that, he immediately left with Han Mei.
Watching the azure dragon cloud disappear into the sky, Chen Luoyang nodded to himself.
Indifferent, eccentric, closed, and did not like to interact with the outside world.
If not for this, Azure Dragon Island's reputation might be even greater than Fu Sang Island's.
While thinking, Chen Luoyang also left the place to look for Leng Ji, who had just escaped.
In order to observe Han Mei, he had to temporarily put Leng Ji aside. Now it was time to pick him up again.
As for Han Mei …
A ruminating look appeared in Chen Luoyang's eyes.
Unlike when he watched Han Mei fight with the Unnerving Demon Monk, he seemed to have been affected by bad luck. This time, he was safe and sound.
But he could not be sure if it was because there was not enough time for it to act up, or because Han Mei had focused all her "power" on Wei Chaoran.
More experiments and observations are needed … Chen Luoyang thought.
He collected his thoughts and focused on tracking Leng Ji's whereabouts.
According to the latest information from the White Jade Bottle, Leng Ji had indeed fallen into the hands of the descendants of Misery Sea.
The Demon Monk Sheming had indeed done something to Leng Ji.
While he was restraining Wei Chaoran, the other descendants of Misery Sea used their unique secret techniques to track Leng Ji's whereabouts.
Leng Ji, who had not recovered from his injuries and had just been heavily injured by Wei Chaoran, was in an even worse state.
He was quickly found and chased by a small team of Misery Sea experts.
Although Leng Ji was fierce, he was unable to break through the enemy's encirclement. Eventually, he was trapped in a valley.
The people of Misery Sea wanted to capture him alive, so they did not try to attack him, but surrounded the valley.
After delaying for a little more time, more Misery Sea experts would arrive.
Chen Luoyang, who had transformed into Daoist Banhai, rushed to the valley at the fastest speed.
Before he got close, he saw a black ball of light from afar.
In the ball of light, there was a vague sound of chanting that made one's heart flutter.
The sound of chanting seemed to be sealed within the ball of light, enveloping the valley.
After Chen Luoyang roughly identified it, he knew that it was a direct descendant of Misery Sea expert in the Martial Sage Realm. He was using the Breaking Maha and the Demon Saves All Living Beings at the same time.
However, he seemed to be a Martial Sage in the sixteenth realm, and not a top Martial Sage like the Demon Monk Sheming in the eighteenth realm.
At the moment, Demon Monk Sheming could not be seen. He might be fighting with Wei Chaoran or the top experts of the Western Qin royal family, and could not make it to the valley.
The other Misery Sea experts were in charge of the valley.
Right now, they were clearly trying to purify Leng Ji in the valley.
Although Leng Ji could not use the qi of the two black dragons freely, if he urged the black dragons to engulf him, even Wei Chaoran could not stop it.
However, the unique skills of the world had their own strengths.
The Misery Sea was now combining the Demon Saves All Living Beings and the Breaking Maha to attack Leng Ji's spirit, trying to purify him, make him give up resistance and suicide, and obediently surrender.
Leng Ji, who was seriously injured and weak, had his spirit repeatedly attacked, and was on the verge of collapse. He wanted to activate the black dragon qi in his body, but he could not do it. He could only hold on with his will.
When Chen Luoyang was considering whether to make a move, he suddenly noticed that among the people of Misery Sea, there was a young monk who seemed a little strange.
