Chapter 457 2 Near Dragon Guard
Chapter 457 2 Near Dragon Guard
. . .
The coast of the East China Sea in Da Zhou.
On a dilapidated fishing boat.
A white-haired old man is fishing leisurely.
A frail old woman was knitting nearby.
The old man suddenly said, "Nan'er has arrived in the Northern Wilderness."
The old woman laughed in surprise and said, "So fast, I thought it would take another month."
The old man named Wu Di smiled faintly and said, "I guess this girl would feel lonely traveling the world alone, so she accelerated her journey."
The old woman Gu Qingtan lowered her head while knitting and said with a smile, "It's okay, the child named Lu Bei will soon be reunited with her."
Wu Di stroked his beard and smiled, "Not necessarily. That kid has made a name for himself in Penglai Immortal Realm, so it might take some time to finish it off."
Gu Qingtan asked curiously, "What's it called? Tell me about it."
Wu Di held a green bamboo pole in one hand, slightly turned sideways, and spoke silently.
Gu Qingtan's eyes flashed with curiosity and surprise, and finally he smiled kindly and said, "This child is quite outstanding."
Wu Di nodded calmly, "Otherwise my disciple wouldn't be interested in him."
Gu Qingtan smiled and said, "I think if these kids were born in the same era as you, you might not be able to keep your title of the best in the world."
Wu Di shook his head and sighed, "How I wish I were from the same era as them."
"Because it's lonely up there, and lonely in the world."
Gu Qingtan rolled her eyes at him unhappily, "You think being with me is boring now, right?"
Wu Di's eyebrows jumped, and he quickly laughed dryly, "How is that possible? My life has been wonderful since I was with Tan'er."
"Five thousand years isn't enough, then give me another five thousand years!"
Wu Di waved his hand and laughed heroically.
"Hmph, I don't want to bother with you," Gu Qingtan gave him a proud look and continued knitting with her head down.
Wu Di held the pole in one hand, glanced to the north, and suddenly smiled, "Nan'er has another chance."
Gu Qingtan looked up curiously, "What kind of opportunity is this?"
Wu Di stroked his beard and smiled, "It seems to be an ancient mythical beast that has been sleeping in its shell for tens of thousands of years."
Gu Qingtan was surprised. "Didn't she go to the Barbarian Tribe? How did she encounter a divine beast? Could it be that the Barbarian Tribe is the descendant of the Demon Tribe?"
Wu Di nodded, "I guess we have some connection."
"It is said that the divine beast was brought back by a powerful barbarian tens of thousands of years ago."
"That powerful being was unable to awaken the divine beast, so he ultimately placed it into a small cave world to sleep."
"It is now considered the trial path for the barbarians. I hope that among the descendants of the barbarians there will be a chosen one to awaken it."
Gu Qingtan nodded and asked curiously, "Does Nan'er have any hope of seizing this opportunity?"
Wu Di stroked his beard and said proudly, "Looking at the whole world, only my disciple can do it."
Gu Qingtan was puzzled.
Wu Di smiled faintly, "Nan'er couldn't do it before, but now she's almost there."
Gu Qingtan was confused for a moment, then suddenly realized, "Oh, I understand."
. . .
Central China, the Tang Dynasty.
In the imperial garden of the imperial city.
Li Zesheng's face looked grim, his fists clenched, and a trace of his terrifying pressure was revealed. The Jade Jingshan Mountain in front of him, which was more than ten feet tall, was instantly shattered into pieces.
The Minister of Rites and the envoys who were kneeling not far behind him were so frightened that they trembled all over.
Because it was the first time they saw His Majesty the Tang Emperor angry.
It is said that one can risk one's life for a beautiful woman, and it is true.
Li Zesheng turned his head suddenly and asked, "When did she leave?"
The leading official, the Minister of Rites, turned pale and quickly responded, "Your Majesty, the Empress of the Great Zhou abdicated three days before our arrival and traveled the world."
Li Zesheng's eyes were cold, "You don't even know where you're going?"
"I don't know," the Minister of the Ministry of Rites lowered his head and trembled.
Li Zesheng gritted his teeth, "How could this be such a coincidence? Could someone have tipped off?"
The Minister of the Ministry of Rites was suddenly startled and didn't know how to answer.
Li Zesheng took a deep breath and said to himself calmly, "Probably not."
"My reputation isn't that scary."
"I'm not a tyrant!"
He closed his eyes and sighed, "Maybe we're just not destined to be together."
Li Hunyuan, the Imperial Preceptor of the Tang Dynasty, stood quietly in the distance, flicking his whisk and laughing, "Your Majesty, some fates require active pursuit."
Li Zesheng's eyes lit up, as if he had been enlightened.
He turned around happily, "The Imperial Master is right."
"I really should have taken the initiative."
His eyes became firm for a moment, and he shouted, "Pass the order!"
"Call all twelve dragon guards here!"
The immortal-looking Li Hunyuan nodded gently, "Your Majesty, are you sending the Dragon Guards to help you find it?"
Li Zesheng nodded, "Yes, the Twelve Near Dragon Guards all have celestial cultivation. It must be easy for them to travel the world and find a woman."
Li Hunyuan smiled faintly, "Sending twelve celestial beings to search for her is such a big deal. I'm sure the woman will be very touched if she is found."
Li Zesheng smiled and nodded, "If I wasn't afraid of scaring that girl, I would have sent a million lions to search the world for her."
"Haha, that would definitely scare me," Li Hunyuan smiled and shook his head.
Li Zesheng narrowed his eyes and muttered to himself, "I have never been so moved by a woman before."
"Since my heart is moved, I must get it, even if it means offending the whole world."
As he spoke, Li Zesheng's eyes were domineering and his whole body was full of powerful aura. Faintly, a sacred shadow of a colorful dragon was circling and ascending behind him.
Li Hunyuan nodded lightly and smiled without saying anything.
. . .
a.
Penglai Fairyland, Knight Island.
Lu Bei came out of his dream practice.
All the disciples and elders of the Xiake Island also came out of seclusion.
Many disciples broke through and their cultivation became even more powerful.
Liu Bufan also recovered his cultivation to the early stage of the celestial being, but Ye Guyan was still in a long period of seclusion to recover.
Lu Bei found several elders and divided some opportunities among them again.
Finally, he handed a storage ring he had prepared to Shangguan Yurou.
"Aunt, I won't stay on Knight Island forever."
"From now on, you will be responsible for distributing the cultivation resources on Xiake Island."
Shangguan Yurou smiled gently and said, "Okay, since we are old now, we won't go out and explore the world anymore. I will leave the task of traveling the world to you young people."
"Leave the cultivation resources to me. Don't worry, I will make reasonable arrangements."
As she spoke, Shangguan Yurou looked at the storage ring with a smile.
When she saw this, her eyes widened and she stared blankly.
"That's so much."
She murmured in shock, frightened by the scene inside the storage ring.
The thirty-meter-sized space here was actually filled with elixirs, rare treasures, various weapons, and various freshly picked medicinal herbs piled up into mountains.
You have to know that these are all magical medicines and herbs. It is a very terrifying thing that they can be piled up into a mountain.
Some ordinary first-class sects may not be able to provide so many cultivation resources at any time.
Moreover, she also saw a small golden bowl placed in a corner, which contained at least five thousand drops of real dragon marrow.
Five thousand drops!
Shangguan Yurou asked blankly, "Xiaobei, did you take away all the dragon marrow in the entire Dragon Palace?"
Lu Bei nodded calmly, "About the same."
"Feel free to use it. Come back to me if you don't have enough."
In fact, apart from all the refining materials and weapons that were not used in the Shura Blood Ring, only 30% of the remaining elixirs were taken out, and less than 10% of the various spiritual medicines and herbs were taken out.
He planted the rest in the space world, which had spiritual veins and abundant spiritual energy. They grew here, and as they matured, their medicinal effects would become stronger.
In fact, he only took out one ten-thousandth of the last true dragon marrow.
If he wasn't afraid of scaring the seniors, he would have wanted to take out more.
Because he really wants to make Xiake Island stronger.
Even so, several seniors still looked at him with strange eyes, and expressed their feelings.
