Chapter 172 Water Spirit Child, Crystal Dragon Palace
In the waters of Xingjiang River, there is a crystal palace under the water.
The Crystal Palace originated from the Dragon Clan of the Four Seas. As the strongest force of the Dragon Clan, almost all the Dragon Clan forces since then, whether it is the Dragon King of Rivers or the Dragon Clan of Wells and Ponds, have built Dragon Palaces in the image of the Crystal Palace, without exception, as if having the Crystal Palace is the orthodoxy of the Dragon Clan.
In addition to the Crystal Palace, the surrounding sea is dotted with honeycomb-shaped rocks.
Many giant snakes of huge bodies came in and out. These snakes had extremely high status and commanded all aquatic creatures.
On the river, patrolling yakshas and strange-looking aquatic creatures are roaming.
A prawn the size of a mortal was lying on the surface of the river, gazing at the sky with its round eyes.
Suddenly, a white line passed through the blue sky, as if dividing the sky into two.
boom! !
White clouds descended on the river, causing huge waves hundreds of feet high.
The deafening sound was like thunder in his ears. Da Xia jumped up in fright and shouted loudly.
"Oh no, the enemy is attacking!!!"
"Wait a minute!"
Water droplets solidified in the air. A man and a woman stood on the white clouds. The leading cultivator smiled gently and said, "I am the son-in-law of the Dragon Palace. Please send a messenger to inform him that Xu Yang is here."
"who!"
boom!
Before Da Xia could reply, a whirlpool formed on the water surface and a huge man with black armor and a dragon beard emerged from the whirlpool.
When Zhen Qiu saw that it was Xu Yang coming, his face immediately turned unhappy.
When he asked for Zhao Ziyan that day, Xu Yang's words did not give him any face at all. When he came back to complain to Long Jun, he was scolded. This made Zhen Qiu hold a grudge against him until now.
Seeing that there was another peerless beauty whom he had never seen before beside Xu Yang, Zhen Qiu felt itchy and wanted to replace her.
"Just wait, one day, I will definitely take you down." Zhen Qiu thought to himself. He didn't dare to look at the woman, but just glanced at her lightly, not daring to reveal his true thoughts.
If this person reports me, I will be scolded again.
Ever since his second brother died, Zhen Qiu thought he would be given an important position, but unexpectedly Xu Yang got there first.
This person's status is incomparable to before.
"Please inform him that I'm here." Xu Yang smiled faintly, then walked to Zhen Qiu and put a hand on his shoulder. "If you don't want to die, be humble. Do you understand?"
"You!" Zhen Qiu was furious and was about to take action, but found that he could not move. The hand on his shoulder was as heavy as a mountain.
Great Dane?
Has this person made another breakthrough?
When Zhen Qiu met the man's calm eyes, his heart trembled suddenly. He was afraid that someone was really going to die. He even didn't know whose side the Dragon King would stand on.
What’s even more terrifying is that an invisible force from nowhere is suppressing his bloodline.
Thinking of this, Zhen Qiu instantly gave in, with a flattering smile on his face, and said, "It's just a joke, nephew, don't mind it."
"That's good, pass the message quickly."
"As ordered."
The real dragon dived into the water in a panic, and reappeared after a while.
There was no hindrance during the whole process.
"Long Jun asked you to come in."
Zhen Qiu led the two into the water.
During this time, Princess Halloween said nothing, as if she was observing the things around her and preparing for the battle that was about to take place.
As she went deeper, her brows remained furrowed.
"My lord, this seems to be a formation, you have to be careful. It is a bit difficult to defeat this monster here, it is best to find a chance to lure it out." Perhaps they can defeat the Dragon King here, but he is determined to escape, and they can do nothing about it because of the formation in front of them.
This dragon must have been in business for many years, and Princess Halloween underestimated him.
The two passed through the Crystal Palace and saw many beautiful girls on the road. Using their magical eyes, they found that they were all girls from the Great Snake Clan, or dragon girls in the words of the Dragon Palace.
Along the corridors, the luminous pearls everywhere illuminated the faces of the two people clearly.
Wherever he went, there were only maids and guards. The patterns on the crystal wall showed the scenery of a hundred miles around, and it seemed to be some kind of mysterious restriction.
Xu Yang came here only a few times, and this time he made an intentional investigation and actually discovered quite a few mysteries.
Everywhere is dangerous and everywhere is confidential.
Sitting on the main seat was a scholar in white clothes, with white horns on his head and an elegant temperament.
There were several human monks seated at the tables on both sides.
"Are you here? Come and sit down."
The Dragon King greeted them, and then introduced to everyone that those human cultivators were also the sons-in-law of the Dragon Palace. Of course, their status was still somewhat different from that of himself, the real son-in-law of the Dragon King.
Dragon Palace establishes connections with surrounding forces based on this relationship, and the strongest son-in-law at present is naturally Xu Yang.
After all, she was a wild monster. Disciples from famous and upright sects disdained to marry these snake girls, and Xining, who wanted to marry her, couldn't.
Those who come here to seek opportunities are usually small forces, so Xu Yang is considered pretty good.
"You've come just in time. It's just right for you to help." Dragon King subconsciously thought that Princess Halloween was a maid brought by Xu Yang. Due to the limitation of bloodline, he could not see the true strength of Princess Halloween.
"What advice do you have, father-in-law?"
The Dragon King did not answer, but asked: "Why are you here?"
"It's nothing serious. The temple just happened to be short of materials, so I came to take a look."
"Okay, just tell me what you need, you're welcome."
Xu Yang sat down and the maid brought him some wine.
As time went by, more and more people came to the banquet.
After a rough observation, most of them were at the foundation-building stage, a small number were at the true qi stage, some were independent cultivators, and there were also people from Taoist temples. Most of those true qi cultivators had the mark of the county palace, so perhaps these people were selected because of their potential.
"This time I invite you all to come here to kill monsters. There have been many water spirits causing trouble in the river recently, so I ask you to catch as many water spirits as possible. All the catches will belong to you. I will give you an extra pill and provide a talisman for finding water spirits."
Water spirits, also known as water children, have naked human bodies, are three to five feet tall, and carry a wooden basin full of water on their heads. They are weak on land, and once they enter water, they immediately transform into various aquatic beasts.
What's even more terrifying is that they can blend into the water at any time and cannot be discovered by outsiders. Even if there are talismans to find water spirits, most of them can only be sensed within a certain range.
Fortunately, the water spirits are not united enough. Most of them live in groups of three or five, or are divided into different tribes according to their different true forms in the water. Different tribes even kill each other. Otherwise, if they unite, the big snake tribe will have to step aside.
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone's eyes lit up.
The Dragon King has always been generous, and Water Essence is a treasure for refining elixirs and weapons. With a backer like the Dragon King in charge, there is basically nothing to worry about.
Not everyone was as rich as Xu Yang, and soon everyone agreed.
"Xu Yang, please send out a few zombies." Long Jun looked at Xu Yang.
Killing water spirits is an annual activity, mainly for communication, and it is not a life-and-death battle.
"Father-in-law, I have a way to find the whereabouts of the Water Spirit Clan. If you want to fight them, then fight them harder. How about we set out together and head straight to the Water Spirit Clan's lair?"
At this time, Long Jun noticed Xu Yang's changes.
"You broke through?"
"Exactly."
The Dragon King was very impressed. He couldn't imagine the talent of his future Dragon Son. Before that, he first squeezed out Xu Yang's value. So he said, "Your idea is good. Let's do it as you wish."
