My body swayed slightly as I quietly savored this moment of peace.

At that very moment.

A figure swept past like a gust of wind and appeared in front of Gu Xuan in an instant.

The visitor was none other than Zhu Chen!

Although he looked a little tired, his eyes were unusually determined.

Without the slightest hesitation, Zhu Chen knelt down and solemnly bowed to Gu Xuan.

"Master, I have successfully completed my mission!"

"The mission has been successfully accomplished; the dragon clan in that sea area has been successfully subdued by my subordinates."

However, before he could finish speaking...

Zhu Chen raised his head slightly, his gaze fixed on Gu Xuan, and then said, "However, during this operation, I made some rather peculiar discoveries deep within the Dragon Palace of the Sea."

After saying that, he deliberately stopped talking.

It seemed intentional, to pique Gu Xuan's curiosity.

Upon hearing these words...

Gu Xuan, who had been looking relaxed and carefree with his eyes slightly closed, suddenly opened them.

He glanced sideways at Zhu Chen, "Stop beating around the bush, just say what you have to say!"

Clearly, Zhu Chen was hesitant to speak.

This aroused slight dissatisfaction in Gu Xuan's heart.

Upon hearing this, Zhu Chen broke out in a cold sweat and hurriedly bowed and clasped his hands in apology.

He then took a deep breath, steadied himself, and hurriedly recounted his encounter in the forbidden area deep within the Dragon Palace—the Myriad Dragon Abyss.

That day, Zhu Chen overheard Long Kun mentioning the secret of Wanlongyuan.

A strong sense of curiosity and a desire to explore welled up within me.

So he made a decision without hesitation.

They set off immediately, speeding towards the forbidden area.

With his unique bloodline power, Zhu Chen traveled smoothly without hindrance.

They successfully entered the Myriad Dragon Abyss, a forbidden area considered by Long Kun and the other dragon clans.

However, the moment he stepped inside...

Suddenly everything went black, and the whole world began to spin violently.

The feeling was as if he were being swept into an endless vortex, making him dizzy and almost faint.
