Chapter 214: Chapter 112: Slaughter them all!_3
“Sunn Lanyu had mentioned that the River Ji Dragon Seal is likely in the hands of a person named Falling Clouds.
He wields the River Ji Dragon Seal to orchestrate his conspiracies and misled Sunn Lanyu who was initially attempting to retrieve the River Ji Dragon Seal.
At the Great Xia’s imperial court’s doctrinal conference, there’s a sect named Falling Clouds Sect. The likelihood is that the person who snatched the River Ji Dragon Seal is behind this sect.”
“I suggest we send someone to the doctrinal conference to retrieve the River Ji Dragon Seal.”
The moment Ao Lang echoed these words, Ao Yu instantly expressed his vehement opposition:
“Absolutely not! Absolutely not!”
If the news Sunn Lanyu passed on before his death is indeed true, that the River Ji Dragon Seal is indeed related to the person named Falling Clouds, won’t Ao Lang be able to secure his position as the Dragon Sovereign if he sends people to retrieve the River Ji Dragon Seal?
As Ao Lang’s number one archrival, Ao Yu absolutely didn’t want Ao Lang to retrieve the River Ji Dragon Seal, so he hurriedly interfered:
“Because of Sunn Lanyu, our River Ji Dragon Palace has suffered so much loss. Are you still thinking of squandering our precious resources?
Those precious spirit objects are at least Class 6 or 7, they are hard to find even if the Spirit Energy completely recovers in the future. You shouldn’t be wasting them on such things.”
“Even if the River Ji Dragon Palace is wealthy and influential, it cannot withstand your squandering.”
“Moreover, the Mingquan Turtle Minister has already been beheaded. Even if you send another Spirit Transmutation Great Demon, it will likely meet the same fate.”
“Are you sure you can retrieve the Dragon Seal at such a high price?”
Ao Yu’s words immediately resonated with all the True Dragons. Regardless of whether the truth is as such, they didn’t want those precious spirit objects wasted on uncertain information.
And at this moment, Ao Lang’s languid voice slowly echoed.
“Who told you, I would be dispatching a Spirit Transmutation Great Demon?”
The moment these words were spoken, the entire Crystal Palace fell silent. Even those unflappable Aquatic Gods widened their eyes, looking towards the Dragon Sovereign seated on the throne.
“Have you gone mad? Dispatching a Spirit Transmutation Great Demon is already the limit of our River Ji Dragon Palace. The True Being Stage Demon Kings are not something our current world can accommodate.”
“Without the River Ji Dragon Seal stabilizing the power of River Ji, once the Demon King makes a move, he will undoubtedly be rejected by the natural world. Covering it with a Taoist artifact would still be difficult.”
“At that time, the Demon King who takes action will surely die. Even if a True Immortal descends, it’s impossible to save their fate.”
“We have painstakingly waited for three thousand years of Spirit Energy depletion, the day when Spirit Energy returns to the world is near. Who would be willing to gamble their life and join you in your madness?”
Dragon Sovereign of River Ji didn’t respond to Ao Yu and the others’ words, instead, he looked towards the grand hall of the Dragon Palace, at an elderly deity at the very last seat among all the water gods.
Feeling the gaze of the Dragon Sovereign of River Ji, the elderly deity moved slowly, hobbling towards the center of the grand hall.
“I am old and my life is nearing its end, I am willing to be commanded by our sovereign, to uphold the might of our River Ji Dragon Palace!”
Upon seeing this aquatic deity voluntarily step forward, Ao Yu immediately understood that Ao Lang had planned this advance.
The True Being Stage Demon Kings are not the Spirit Transmutation monster tribes that can be casually manipulated.
Each of the Demon Kings who survived since the last Spirit Energy Tidal Surge era is a foundation capable of suppressing one aquatic realm. Even the Dragon Sovereign can’t casually determine the death of a True Being Stage Demon King.
This deity is the Giant Clam Water God, who has survived since two prior Spirit Energy Tidal Surge eras, and has lived for six thousand years.
The Giant Clam’s original body is an unusual species of the clam tribe. The fact that it has survived until now is already its limit, and the nearing end of the Giant Clam’s lifespan means it must have made some deal with Ao Lang.
The specific reason is unknown, but in order to have a True Being Stage Water God take the risk, the price that Ao Lang paid must’ve been extremely high.
Seeing an aquatic god voluntarily risk his lifespan to take action, even Ao Yu, however unwilling, had no room to refuse.
Sitting above on the Dragon Sovereign’s throne, Ao Lang looked at the aged Giant Clam and slowly said:
“I hereby appoint the Giant Clam Water God as the Patrol Warden of River Ji. The power of the rivers above River Ji is at the disposal of the Giant Clam Water God.”
“This journey to Qingping County seeks to execute the villains and reclaim the Dragon Seal for our River Ji Dragon Palace and thereby restore the might of our River Ji Dragon Palace.”
His voice paused slightly, Ao Lang’s gaze turned profound as he said:
” As for all the sects at the doctrinal conference, just obliterate them!”
