Chapter 4298
"Dong …" At the critical moment, the golden bells rang in unison, and hundreds of conch girls flew out of the Light and Shadow Dragon Palace. These conch girls either struck the bells, played the zither, or blew the bamboo flute. In the sound of the zither and bamboo, the whirlwind and dragon scales that rushed up disappeared.
Looking at the stairs again, a whirlpool appeared, and a dozen dragon generals stepped out. The one with the crown in front was the Fourth Prince, Ao Qian.
When Ao Qian saw Xiao Hua, he immediately bowed and shouted, "Junior Ao Qian greets Dragon Master Xiao!"
"Hehe, so it's the Fourth Prince. I saw you in the Folded Jade Legacy Realm!
No need to be too polite! "How could Xiao Hua let Ao Qian really bow? He hurriedly raised his hand to support his body and smiled.
Ao Qian's face was filled with shame as he said, "Junior is really sorry. That day in the Folded Jade Legacy Realm, I actually misunderstood Dragon Master.
If it wasn't for Dragon Master that day, it would have been impossible for us to come out of the Legacy Realm.
When junior came out of the Legacy Realm, I deliberately waited outside for half a day, wanting to apologize and thank Dragon Master in person.
Later, when I heard that senior became the Dragon Master of my dragon race, junior was happier than anyone else. Junior had always hoped that Dragon Master would come to my South Sea Dragon Palace. I really didn't expect that junior's dream would come true today!
I really have to thank the heavens! "
While speaking, Ao Qian was about to bow again!
Looking at the surprise on Ao Qian's face, it really didn't seem fake. Xiao Hua's heart warmed as he helped Ao Qian up and said, "Fourth Prince, you don't have to be too polite. There's no need to say thank you. That day, I was also forced into a dangerous situation and had no choice but to risk my life!"
Ao Qian smiled and said, "You don't have to say thank you, but an apology is necessary!
Junior wronged Dragon Master. If I can't apologize, junior won't be able to sleep and eat in peace! "
Xiao Hua was helpless and could only let him bow a few times. Then, he helped him up and said, "The situation that day was unclear, so it's normal that Fourth Prince didn't understand!
Now that the truth has been revealed, we don't need to say anymore! "
"Yes, yes!"
Ao Qian stood up, looked at Xiao Hua, and smiled happily again, "It's only been a few hundred years, senior's cultivation has advanced by leaps and bounds. Junior is really envious!"
"Hehe, lucky, lucky!" Xiao Hua smiled and didn't say much. He looked behind Ao Qian and said, "Dragon King is in the palace?
This Xiao has something to trouble you with! "
Ao Qian replied, "I'm sorry to disappoint you, Dragon Master Xiao. Father has gone to the East Sea Dragon Palace for a banquet. He's not in the Dragon Palace right now!"
Xiao Hua was quite disappointed and asked, "Then when will Your Majesty Dragon King return?"
"Not necessarily!" Ao Qian said. "It could be ten days or ten years."
"This …" Xiao Hua was a bit hesitant. He didn't know if he should let the Fourth Prince send a message to Ao Concrete. After all, the matter he asked the South Sea Dragon King for was not a small matter.
Seeing Xiao Hua's hesitation, Ao Qian hurriedly smiled and said, "Dragon Master Xiao, since you've come to my South Sea Dragon Palace, you should let this junior do his duty as a host.
If Master Long has anything to say, you can tell this junior. If this junior can make a decision, this junior will work for Senior. If this junior can't make a decision, then this junior can send a message to Royal Father and even ask Royal Father to come back. "
"Yes, Fourth Prince's words are reasonable!" This Xiao pondered for a moment and nodded. "This Xiao thinks …"
Without waiting for Xiao Hua to finish speaking, Ao Qian interrupted him and asked with a smile, "Haha, Dragon Master Xiao, this is not the place to talk. How about Master Long follow this junior to the main hall of the Dragon Palace? This junior will first set up a banquet to entertain Senior. How about we talk while drinking?"
"Very good!!" Xiao Hua didn't doubt him and nodded.
"Master Long, please …" Ao Qian was overjoyed. He turned around and signaled Xiao Hua to go first.
Xiao Hua also smiled slightly and raised his hand. "Fourth Prince, please!"
"Alright, this junior will lead the way!" Fourth Prince said politely and took the lead to step on the waves of the whirlpool.
Xiao Hua released his divine sense and took a rough look. He also stepped on the waves. The dragon generals brought by the Fourth Prince followed behind Xiao Hua.
The walls of the passage formed by the whirlpool were rotating seawater. The rotation of the seawater caused a huge rumbling sound. Just like a transmission passage, the rotation of the seawater sent Xiao Hua and Ao Qian to the bottom of the sea.
Even before walking out of the whirlpool, Xiao Hua already saw that several thousand li of the bottom of the sea was covered by layers upon layers of palaces. These palaces were similar in style to the palaces on the Dragon Island. They were all abnormally simple and unadorned.
However, there was a kind of luxury in this unadorned simplicity. The so-called splendor of gold and jade was nothing more than a kind of vulgarity in this place.
At the end of the passage was a huge palace with the same light and shadow as the surface of the sea. The two words "Southern Sea" were written on the signboard. The gate of this palace wasn't open. Instead, there was a gate on the left side of the gate that couldn't be considered small!
In front of that gate, there were also members of the Water Race standing respectfully.
Xiao Hua followed Ao Qian and landed. His gaze swept across the entire palace and his brows slightly wrinkled. This palace had no less than nine palace gates. Other than the huge golden gate in the middle, the two sides were vermilion yellow gates. He didn't know what material the gates were made of. The vermilion yellow surface concealed strange dragon characters. Although the dragon characters were in the form of characters, in Xiao Hua's eyes, they actually transformed into hundreds of huge dragons coiling in front of the palace gates. A kind of majestic dragon might pounced on Xiao Hua from inside the palace gates.
Xiao Hua naturally didn't care about this dragon might. His slightly wrinkled brows were also seen by Ao Qian.
Ao Qian hurriedly smiled apologetically and said: "I'll let Dragon Teacher Xiao know that Dragon Teacher has graced my Southern Sea Dragon Palace with your presence. My Southern Sea Dragon Palace naturally has to open the gate in the middle to welcome you.
However, my royal father isn't in the palace. This junior also doesn't have the qualifications to open the Dragon Palace. Therefore … I can only inconvenience Dragon Teacher to use the palace gates that my Dragon Palace of the Four Seas normally uses to welcome seniors! "
Xiao Hua understood. He casually waved his hand and said with a smile: "No need to be polite. This old man dislikes empty formalities the most. Just do as you please!"
However, after a moment, Xiao Hua still asked curiously: "Who usually opens the gate in the middle?"
Ao Qian smiled and said: "Naturally, it's opened by seniors who have already reached the highest realm in the three continents.
For example, the Immortal Emperor of the Immortal Palace, the three Buddhist Lords of the Thunder Temple, the seven Great Sages of the Thousand Demons Sacred Realm, and the various elders of the Dragon Island!
Oh, of course, other than the realm, when respected seniors come, it will also be opened. For example, Dragon Teacher Xiao! "
"Hehe, there's no need to mention this old man!" Xiao Hua smiled and waved his hand. "This old man only has an empty title …"
"How can the Dragon Teacher of my Dragon Clan be an empty title?"
Ao Qian raised his hand and asked Xiao Hua to leave first. He followed behind Xiao Hua and replied with narrowed eyes, "If Dragon Teacher Xiao hadn't done a great favor to my Dragon Clan in the Stacked Jade Legacy Realm, how could the various elders of the Dragon Island bestow the title of Dragon Teacher to senior?
Perhaps senior isn't of my Dragon Clan and doesn't know the origin of the title of Dragon Teacher.
The so-called Dragon Teacher is the master of all of my Dragon Clan. No matter where senior goes, my Dragon Clan has to treat senior as a master and disciple. We must listen to senior's words and can't refute them … "
Ao Qian had the intention to flatter. He carefully accompanied Xiao Hua along the way and led Xiao Hua to the previous main hall. At this time, the main hall had already been cleaned up and there was no trace of blood.
As Xiao Hua walked into the main hall, he immediately saw the golden throne at the head of the hall. That enormous throne was carved with countless strange patterns, and a familiar desolate aura was emitted from those patterns, directly filling the entire main hall!
If Xiao Hua hadn't fallen into the Heavenly Prison and saw this desolate relic, he would definitely sigh and be envious. He might even covet it in his heart. But at this time, after plundering the mysterious desolate continent for a hundred years, Xiao Hua's space was already filled with treasures. This golden seat was no longer in his eyes. However, the patterns on the golden seat clearly had hidden dragon patterns. It was unknown how many times the Dragon Kings of the past had blessed it with the Heavenly Dragon Language Technique. This was the fundamental reason why Xiao Hua was moved.
Ao Qian saw Xiao Hua's narrowed eyes and secretly despised him in his heart. He raised his hand and invited Xiao Hua to sit in the guest seat below the high platform. He accompanied Xiao Hua on the opposite main seat and said with a smile, "Dragon Teacher Xiao, my Royal Father isn't here. This junior will host a banquet on behalf of Royal Father to entertain senior. If there's anything wrong, please forgive me!"
"Thank you, Fourth Prince!"
Xiao Hua knew that the Dragon Race was similar to the Human Race in some aspects of etiquette. Without a banquet, they couldn't talk, so he nodded slightly.
Not long after, the Dragon Palace servants placed the banquet. The golden table in front of Xiao Hua was already covered with many delicacies. Although Xiao Hua was already a Mahayana cultivator, there were many things in front of him that he hadn't seen before.
In the end, two graceful shell girls danced with their shells. Their bodies were faintly visible in the transparent shells, looking particularly alluring.
The shell girls leisurely came from outside the main hall. They swam through the seawater in the main hall, emitting a warm fragrance that seeped into one's heart. When they swam in front of Xiao Hua, they lowered their heads slightly and took out a strange flower with their mouth. This strange flower only had three petals, and these three petals were almost transparent. Hidden in the transparent flower were dozens of patterns of different colors. These patterns were also strange, and each one was like an undetectable flood dragon.
The strange flower swayed slightly in the mouth of the shell girl, and the dozens of flood dragons reflected the light of the overflowing seawater. It was as if dozens of flood dragons were flying around the shell girl.
A strange look appeared in Xiao Hua's eyes. He didn't know what the banquet would do with these flowers. However, looking at Ao Qian across from him, there was also a shell girl presenting flowers. Moreover, Ao Qian was looking at the dragon shadow in front of him with interest. Xiao Hua felt relieved.
Sure enough, when the shell girl placed the flower on a crystal plate to the right of the golden table, the fragrance of the flower enveloped the delicacies. An appetizing fragrance wafted out from the delicacies, and it was even more alluring than before.
After the shell girl waved her shell again and left seductively, Ao Qian moved his gaze away from the shell girl's back. He glanced at Xiao Hua and then glanced at the Spirit Parting Flower in front of Xiao Hua. A smile appeared at the corner of his mouth. He raised his hand and picked up a huge wine bottle. He gestured, "Dragon Teacher Xiao, junior salutes senior on behalf of my father. Welcome to my Southern Sea Dragon Palace!"
