Chapter 138 The Four Seas and Four Rivers, Dragon King of the Rivers
On the back of the golden eagle, the scenery on both sides of the river was rapidly receding.
Xu Yang was thinking about his next plan.
There are less than five years left before the Hydra sect appears. Other forces do not know the location and appearance time of the cemetery, which is their advantage.
But they vaguely knew that the Hydra had a tomb in the Yinshan area, and Xuanzhu Palace had been sending people to search for it over the years.
If I can't hide myself, I'm afraid I will have to face endless harassment.
You should know that the Nine-headed Insect is the ancestor of Xuanzhu Palace, and the main god worshipped in Xuanzhu Palace is this Nine-headed Insect.
If they knew that he had taken their ancestor's Taoist teachings, he would either hand over the Taoist teachings, gain the friendship of Xuanzhu Palace, and get some verbal rewards, or run away with the Taoist teachings.
Therefore, confidentiality must be maintained and it is best to use the local demon tribe as a cover to ensure that nothing goes wrong.
Even if someone notices any movement in the mausoleum, just don't blame yourself.
The golden-eyed eagle continued to move forward.
On the way, Xu Yang discovered many people, including monsters, ghosts, and various kinds of cultivators.
He even discovered a young man from the county palace, a guy named Gu Yuchan, who was followed by several monks.
And the twin brothers from Zhenmeng County Palace.
The other group of people were dressed differently. Some wore crane cloaks that gave them a Taoist look and held whisks in their hands. They were the best-looking Taoists Xu Yang had ever seen.
The other group of people were dressed simply, like country Taoists.
"This is the Jade Emperor Palace of Fengxian County, and the Blood-transmitted Jade Emperor Palace." Zhao Ziyan, who looked like a servant beside him, said in a low voice.
The former worships the statue of the Jade Emperor and practices the Jade Emperor's unique skills.
The latter is dressed simply, unconcerned with material possessions, and claims to have inherited the Jade Emperor's legacy, practicing with the method of experiencing tribulations.
"I see."
Worshiping the Jade Emperor does not necessarily mean he is the real Jade Emperor. Anyway, the heaven is gone and belief in him is just something people talk about and should not be taken seriously.
Soon, everyone arrived at the surface of the Xingjiang River, which was a hundred miles wide.
The dragon boat was waiting here early.
Everyone gets on board.
clack clack...
The dragon boat capsized.
The next moment, the environment changed drastically.
Dragon boat sailing on calm water.
On the shore are endless crystal palaces. There is no sun in the sky, and the forest-like corals on the shore emit white light.
The space was illuminated, and everywhere were water spirit monsters wearing iron armor.
Some are in human form, while others have not yet shed their demonic forms.
Everyone came to the Crystal Palace in the center.
Although the Great Snake Clan is called the Great Snake Clan, they are essentially dragons. The palace of a dragon is characterized by magnificence, and this place is no exception. Fist-sized luminous pearls embellish every corner like candles.
Rows of tables are carved from white jade.
The table was already filled with delicacies from land and sea.
Sitting on the main throne is a white-haired "young" Dragon King.
The Dragon King's hair and beard are all white, his sideburns flutter like dragon whiskers, there is a large horn like a cockscomb above his forehead, his face is as white as jade, and his age cannot be seen clearly, he looks a bit like a young man.
This is the King of the Gongdu Snakes, the Lord of the three thousand snakes, the Gongdu Dragon Lord.
Everyone paid their respects to the Dragon Lord in turn.
There are three types of Dragon Kings in the world. The largest Dragon King is the Sea Dragon King. The ocean is boundless and he has countless subordinates. The powerful Dragon King forms a realm of his own.
The most powerful Dragon King is the Dragon King of the Four Seas, and the rest are Dragon Kings of some small sea areas.
The second type is the river dragon king. His area is much smaller than that of the ocean, but he has a longer river basin and passes through more places. He is the dragon clan with the most faiths.
The Gongdu Dragon King is one of the river dragon kings. His strength is not top-notch. The strongest of this kind are the Four Rivers Dragon Kings.
The Yinshan Xingjiang River has many tributaries, but he cannot fully control them, and the main stream of the river does not pass through the human basin.
The third type is the Dragon King of the Well and Pond.
This type of Dragon King has extremely limited territorial restrictions. A pond or a well is their sphere of influence. The strong ones are very strong, the weak ones are very weak, and some are just old loaches at best.
Everyone took their seats.
Xu Yang happened to be sitting next to Gu Yuchan.
"Fellow Daoist, long time no see." Gu Yuchan greeted with a smile.
"Yes." Xu Yang bowed in return.
Gu Yuchan was a little confused, wondering why Xu Yang and Zhi Gang rarely appeared in the county palace recently.
Even the grand sacrificial ceremony that everyone in the county palace had to attend was not attended by anyone.
As time went by, rumors spread within the county palace that conflicts had occurred among the upper echelons and that Zhigang's faction had been marginalized.
Of course, this is just speculation and there is no solid evidence.
However, this also proves that Master Zhigang's status within the county palace is almost nothing.
No one cares about Xu Yang's side. Many disciples often choose to go to the two counties to train.
Now that the county palace has not made any corresponding arrangements, it is very likely that there is a conflict between the two sides. "Zhang Luan of the Chechi Zhang family respectfully meets the Dragon Lord!"
A handsome and feminine man appeared in front of Long Jun. His appearance was first-class among the crowd. When he came in, he attracted a lot of attention.
"Gui Yuan of the Guiche tribe pays homage to the Dragon Lord!"
Another handsome Taoist priest, his green eyebrows showed that he was from the Guiche clan.
Everyone took their seats under the guidance of the Turtle Prime Minister.
The two of them were right next to Xu Yang.
"Xu Yang? You are here too?" Zhang Luan said with a smile, his tone familiar, as if the person in front of him was not the murderer of his clan member Zhang Siyuan, but a good friend whom he had not seen for many years.
"Why can't I come?" Xu Yang asked back.
"What a pity, we can't do anything in the Dragon Palace, otherwise I would chop off your head and offer it in front of the Zhang family's ancestral altar."
Zhang Luan's tone was still so relaxed, as if he was describing something that had nothing to do with him.
The original intention was to anger Xu Yang, make him lose face in front of the Dragon King, and even offend the dragon clan.
"Zhang's ancestors? Your old man is a eunuch. You should think about how to continue your family line. Otherwise, Zhang's ancestors will be the first to punish you, their unworthy descendants. Haha."
As he spoke, an arc of electricity as thin as a hair jumped at Xu Yang's fingertips.
The Zhang family members were furious. The old eunuch was a scar that the Zhang family could not reveal. Seeing the electric arc on Xu Yang's hand, Zhang Luan's pupils shrank and murderous intent rose in his heart.
This is Zhang family's unique Yin Lei.
This person actually learned Zhang family's Yin Lei?
This person must not be allowed to stay!
"Hmph, you are sharp-tongued." Gui Yuan of the Guiche Clan sneered, "You are an incompetent bandit who can only show off his ability of talking."
"Haha, my sword is sharper. The cultivators of your clan should have sensed this. To be honest, Gui Xiang of the Guiche clan is still a slave in the Taoist temple. When will you go to rescue him?"
"you!!"
These words made Gui Yuan want to get angry, but he didn't dare to.
"Pfft..."
A woman's bell-like laughter came from behind the crowd.
When I turned around, I saw that it was a maid from the Dragon Palace.
Rows of Dragon Palace maids stood on both sides of the aisle, looking very charming and holding trays in their hands.
The woman who laughed was not a stunning beauty. She had black hair like a waterfall, a chubby chin, eyes curved into crescents, and cute dimples on her cheeks.
Apparently he heard the conversation between the two parties and couldn't help laughing.
Zhang Luan glanced at the maid indifferently, with a threatening look in his eyes, but the woman seemed not to see it and just smiled to herself.
This place is the Dragon King's territory, so Zhang Luan couldn't get angry.
"Everyone, the Ghost Festival is the time when yin and yang meet. This is the time when all spirits grow. Let us celebrate the Ghost Festival!"
"celebrate!"
Everyone raised their glasses and drank the only glass of wine on the table.
Maids walked around the aisle carrying trays.
The monks calmed their minds and got to the point.
These are not real maids. Most of them are women from the Great Snake Clan, and most of them are related to the Gongdu Great Snake.
If you like a maid, you can wave to her.
If the other party comes forward, kneels down and pours wine, the marriage is considered a success and the man can marry the beauty.
If the other party pretends not to see it, it means the woman is not interested.
The first step of the first banquet is called the selection of a son-in-law in the Dragon Palace.
It may not necessarily succeed after being selected.
The next step is to pass the test of the Dragon King. The second step is called the love test.
Only after passing the love test can he marry the dragon girl and receive a large dowry from the Dragon King.
Otherwise you can only wait until next time.
It was with this trick that the Dragon Lord won over the children of most of the surrounding forces.
This is the way to long-term stability.
Next, everyone showed their magical powers. Some used their magical eyes to try to find the real dragon girl; some were greedy for beauty and chose women with excellent looks.
Xu Yang was no exception. His eyes were dark green and he used his innate Yin-Yang eyes while secretly pinching the Great Fundamental Seal to sense things.
Some have full Taiyin, which indicates that they are just fertile; some have mixed aura, which indicates that they have rotten crotches.
Some are unremarkable, just ordinary little monsters.
Xu Yang searched for a long time but couldn't find the so-called dragon girl.
"Hey, this woman has good qualifications."
It was the little dimple that made the laugh just now. Her talent was not too high, but she had hidden magical power and inner beauty.
Since the Dragon Girl cannot be found, or is not here, it is better to choose one who is compatible with him. It is the first time that Xu Yang has seen such a cute and lively girl.
So he waved to the woman.
