Chapter 3694: Concerns

them were hidden inside an hollowed-out green watermelon rind, with a watermelon rind hat on their heads. 。That guy was still being a real show-off, putting his fiery red cloak over the watermelon rin...The attitude of the Heavenly Court towards the East Sea Dragon Palace put it in an extremely awkward position. While a considerable number of dragon descendants and underlings among the sea monsters indulged in pleasure, a significant portion of the dragons and the sea monsters under their command had been tempered through various battles, emerging as stronger forces after such conflicts.

And the East Sea also has some troublemaking monsters every year, as well as uncontrollable alien forces that need to be conquered by the Dragon Palace of the East Sea. Part of the bloodshed and carnage also honed a group of strongmen out of the Dragon Palace of the East Sea.

Therefore, the East Sea Dragon Palace at this time also gave people a feeling of being like the world described by Mao Dun. On one hand, a considerable part of them indulged in pleasure and were superficial; on the other hand, there was also a part who had gone through hardships and were unwilling to remain stagnant. After this part fell, the resentment in their hearts was particularly strong.

If one were to underestimate the East Sea Dragon Palace simply because of its outward display of luxury, that would be a clear case of prejudice.

“The Dragon King is being too modest. The East Sea Dragon Palace has stood for so long, it's certainly not just a facade. Otherwise, even if the Heavenly Court acknowledged the existence of the East Sea Dragon Palace, the palace itself might struggle to survive. Today we only see the opulent side of the palace, but there are no young talents among the dragons. I presume the Old Dragon King is worried that the Heavenly Court will be wary of this, the Dragon King overthinks things. I am not one for so much talking.” The master of Rongxu Cave shook his head.

"Haha, the celestial immortal is joking. The East Sea Dragon Palace is under the jurisdiction of the Heavenly Court, and the Dragon Palace's authority over the East Sea was also bestowed by the Heavenly Court. I haven't even had time to express my gratitude for the Emperor of Heaven's generosity, how could I possibly suspect the Heavenly Court" Old Dragon King Ao Tong chuckled.

“Though I have lived a long life and cultivated to this level, I am still subject to the ravages of aging. There are indeed a few incompetent descendants within our clan. If you, esteemed immortal, are interested, I will summon them during tonight’s banquet. However, some of these descendants are arrogant and ignorant of their place. Should they offend you, please disregard their behavior.”

“How could that be We are all valiant generals under the Heavenly Emperor. I wouldn’t be so petty.” Rongxu Cave Master chuckled calmly, “Furthermore, this time entering the Dragon Tomb to obtain the Three Yin Waters of Di Zang, besides Dongfang Dan Saint and Fan Xianzhou, we also need members from the Dragon Palace to accompany us. Since Dongfang Dan Saint has such a heavy responsibility, I also want to personally examine the accompanying personnel sent by the Dragon Palace. If they are merely seeking pleasure, it would be hard to reassure myself. I’m afraid it would disappoint the Heavenly Emperor’s trust.” Rongxu Cave Master said.

When it came to conversation, Lu Xia Tian and his companions had followed Ao Tong to the Dragon Palace's grand hall for guests. At this time, there were countless exotic fruits and delicacies; each person had their own table, with the most food placed on the table in front of Rong Xu, the master of the Rongxu Cave.

"This is natural, I would never dare to mess up Heavenly Court's important affairs. Senior Immortal, please wait a moment, in a while, I will personally select the attendants to accompany Eastern Dan Saint to the Dragon Tomb. Just, just..." Ao Tong readily agreed, but when he got to the end, Old Dragon King Ao Tong's face became somewhat embarrassed.

"What troubles the Dragon King" Rongxu Dongzhu, taking his seat first, asked.

“As for the tasks assigned by the Heavenly Court, I naturally take full responsibility and will do my best. However, over the years, the Dragon Tomb has accumulated a heavy amount of resentment, making it extremely dangerous inside. It poses a certain threat to even dragons themselves. Any species outside of the dragon race that enters the Dragon Tomb may encounter unforeseen dangers. The Di Zang San Yin Spring is one of the most perilous areas within.”

Ao Tong said solemnly, "Apart from that, there is another factor that must be considered."

"What factors" Lu Xiaotien asked, as his safety was at stake, he naturally had the right to ask.

“Ever since the celestial immortals and the Eastern Divine Saint left Yu Xuan Heavenly Court, enemy figures appeared at the border between the East Sea and the South Sea. Although our side had made many preparations, we could only guard against the main force of their dragon army. As for the Xuanxian and Tianxian level juniors who infiltrated through, we were unable to completely block them.” Ao Tong said with worry.

"So, the Dragon King means that the Jade Xuan Heaven Court will intervene in this matter through the South Sea Dragon Palace and stir up trouble" Rongxu Cave Master's expression finally became serious. Although Ao Tong pointed out the crux of the problem at this time, it was not without the suspicion of shirking responsibility, but Rongxu Cave Master had to take it seriously.

During this trip to the Jade Xuan Heavenly Court, Lu Xiaoteng had beaten those who challenged him so badly that their faces were swollen. From Chu Zhaoyang to Xuanhu Venerable, to Xing Yichi, the Lord of Starcloud City, it was clear that they were far from magnanimous individuals. If Lu Xiaoteng and his group encountered trouble within the Jade Xuan Heavenly Court's territory, the consequences would be enormous. However, if something happened in the East Sea Dragon Palace, it would be a two-bird-with-one-stone situation for the Jade Xuan Heavenly Court.

After all, this time the face of Jade Xuan Heavenly Court was almost swollen by Lu Xia Tian. How could they possibly let it go Especially since Jade Xuan Heavenly Court felt that over the years, their strength had gradually surpassed Hong Hao Heavenly Court. It's understandable to be bullied by someone stronger than themselves, but being bullied and humiliated by someone weaker is absolutely unacceptable.

Furthermore, Lu Xia Tian's potential at this time was extremely astonishing. Compared to cultivation, what made Yu Xuan Heaven Court wary was Lu Xia Tian's achievements in alchemy. At this time, the scale of spiritual energy within Lu Xia Tian's body was already greater than that of Kuang Ziyou, and its purity had a huge room for improvement. It was very likely that he would advance to the rank of a four-grade Pill Saint. Once he reached this level, it would be extremely easy for him to nourish his cultivation realm in return.

For the Jade Xuan Heavenly Court, taking advantage of this opportunity to execute Lu Xiaitian within the Dragon Tomb would not only eliminate a powerful potential enemy for the court. It could also be an opportunity to provoke dissatisfaction in the Hong Hao Heavenly Court towards the East Sea Dragon Palace.

In any case, being able to take the opportunity to eliminate Lu Xia Tian within the Dragon Tomb would be beneficial for Yu Xuan Heavenly Court and could also vent the anger of Lou Yi Kong, Cen Ye, and others who had been defeated by Lu Xia Tian.

"This is one of my concerns. There's another factor: the Sihai Dragon Palace and the Desolate Sea each have their own dragon burial grounds. In the distant past, many fallen dragons were buried in various places, and occasionally the residual energy from these dragon burial grounds would surge together. If the South China Sea Dragon Palace manipulated this situation, causing the resentment in the dragon burial grounds to intensify or directly sending a contingent of dragons through occasional connections between the burial grounds, it would be a grave danger."

"Ao Tong looked worried and said, 'The Heavenly Court has issued an order, and I will do my best to fulfill it. However, with chaos everywhere, even if I try my utmost, I can't guarantee that the plan will go smoothly. The Eastern Dan Saint has limitless potential. Before we are fully prepared, we must not rashly enter dangerous situations.'"

"According to Yi Longwang, what constitutes being fully prepared" Although there were delicacies and fine food before them, neither Rongxu Cave Master nor Lu Xiaoteng et al. had the heart to eat. After hearing Ao Tong's words, Rongxu Cave Master raised an eyebrow. He naturally understood Ao Tong's implication, which was that this trip was too dangerous, and it would be best to avoid it if possible. To avoid taking responsibility.ompletely lost his breath, he was furious and slapped Lan Jinghu. Although he didn't attack Lu Xiaoteng directly, even though he was dozens of miles away from Lu Xiaoteng, Mingyi Zen Master's angry bl...
