Chapter 669: Report to Your Majesty, the trip to the East China Sea is a success

On the vast ocean.

The huge explosion almost shattered the thick clouds in the sky, and when the light of the explosion went out, the cold rain turned red.

Broken limbs were floating on the sea. Zhao Duan stood in the blood rain and silently raised his hand to grab.

In the sea water, the illusory and dim dragon soul broke out of the water with a "bang".

It circled around him twice, and finally penetrated into his qi sea again. Then, as if exhausted, it quickly coiled up and fell into a deep sleep.

Obviously, this time of "putting himself in the game" was also a big drain on Long Po, and Zhao Duan's aura began to decline, and soon returned to the stage of just entering the half-step celestial being.

What is even more amazing is that perhaps because the corpse of a celestial being sank to the bottom of the sea, it was considered a kind of "sacrifice" to some extent.

Therefore, the majesty from the sea god began to shrink rapidly towards the Sea of ​​Silence.

Zhao Duan looked up and saw clearly that the thick clouds in the distant sky were dispersing, the violent storm was subsiding, and the sea surface was quickly returning to calm.

As the clouds parted and sunlight shone through, the entire East China Sea returned to calm, just like after a rainstorm.

Poseidon is back!

“Clatter—”

At this time, Zhao Duan heard the sound of a boat breaking water behind him.

He turned around and saw the familiar sailboat, with Zhang Yanyi, Ji Yue and others on board.

"Sir..." Seeing that Zhao Duan was fine, Ji Yue was obviously relieved, and then the socially anxious sorceress looked around vigilantly:

"Where's that Wu Xiankui? Did he run away?"

Zhao Duan walked on the sea and reached the deck in a few steps. Only then did he come to his senses and said in a complicated tone:

"Dead."

? !

Hearing this casual remark, the brains of Hongshan Island Master and others briefly stopped working, and then they looked at Zhao Duan in horror, unable to believe it.

The leader of Qingshan, the only pure martial artist in the world today, Wu Xiankui, the actual ruler behind the Thousand Islands, actually died like this?

At this moment, even Zhang Yanyi was stunned. The old Taoist priest's spiritual thoughts swept through and quickly confirmed the death of Wu Xiankui. Suddenly, the old Taoist priest's eyes when he looked at Zhao Duan were different.

It was a look that finally treated him as a "peer".

As for Wu Xiankui's death... to outsiders, it might seem too sudden. But to those in the know, it wasn't surprising at all.

Wu Xiankui was already seriously injured and had a broken arm. He fought with Zhang Yanyi for a long time, and then encountered the "celestial level" Zhao Duan's unscrupulous "self-destructive" attack...

Even if you take into account the suppression of the Shanghai God... no matter how strong your life is, you can't resist it.

It can be said that Wu Xiankui's death was somewhat unfair.

It is sad that a master of his generation ended in this way.

However, in this way, the enemies of Zhao Duan and the empress in the Fengshan battle that day were almost all eliminated, leaving only the Xuan Yin.

"It seems that you have made considerable gains in the Silence Sea," Zhang Yan looked at Zhao Duan and exclaimed:

"It's rare to see a Half-Step Celestial Being of this age in the past few hundred years."

But it still couldn't break Zhenbao's defense... Zhao Duan added in his heart, and he smiled:

"I was surprised, too."

Zhang Yanyi asked: "Then the 'key'..."

Zhao Duan smiled and patted his belly: "I got it successfully."

That’s right, the key hidden in the East China Sea is the Dragon Soul.

To be precise, Old Xu left a part of the dragon soul in the East China Sea. Zhao Duan retrieved it and obtained the "key".

Although there were many twists and turns in the whole process, it was generally smooth.

Even the entire operation, in terms of time, was faster than Southwest DJI.

The heavy stone hanging in Zhang Yan's heart fell, and he opened his mouth to ask about the details in Ji Hai.

At this moment, suddenly a few splashes of water exploded on the sea surface not far away, and then heads emerged from the water.

“Master!”

The first head belonged to Li Wushangdao. This "female devil" had a smiling face and was followed by more than 20 female sorcerers.

"Owner."

Not far away, Tuoba Weizhi also came out with wet hair. He scanned the sea with his dark eyes and was obviously relieved when he saw Zhao Duan.

As for what floated up last, it was undoubtedly the golden tablet.

But compared to the ease of others, it was extremely difficult for Jin Jian to get out. His little head floated up and down on the sea, and he was forced to swallow sea water from time to time, as if there was something heavy under him.

Zhang Yan was stunned when he saw this. He was so eager to be his disciple that he raised his hand and grabbed the golden tablet from the air.

“Clatter—”

As the sea water receded, everyone saw Jin Jian's petite figure, tightly clutching a huge cloth bag, which was bulging with the "treasures" that the young priestess had searched for on the island.

Li Wushangdao saw this and helplessly clasped his hands on his hips and complained:

"If I hadn't sensed the Sea God's return and forcibly dragged Junior Sister out, she would have wanted to carry all the coral trees back over there..."

Zhao Duan held his forehead speechlessly, thinking to himself that you are worthy of it.

Zhang Yanyi also threw the money-loving gold tablet on the deck with a dark face, and pointed at her and sighed tiredly.

At this time, the Hongshan Island Master and others on the deck had just recovered from the news of Wu Xiankui's death, and looked at the trembling sorcerers on the sea in astonishment:

"It's you?! Weren't you captured by that female devil?"

Warlocks: "..."

"..." Li Wushangdao had just climbed onto the deck when he heard the words and turned his head to cast a seductive glance at the beautiful woman:

"Did we have some misunderstanding? They all volunteered."

The Lord of Hongshan Island was stunned for a moment, and then everyone's expression froze.

Zhao Duanxin said, "Good fellow, it seems you guys just realized it now..."

"What exactly is going on? Also, when my master was fighting Wu Xiankui just now, I saw nine people from Qiandao also dive into the Silent Sea..."

Zhang Yan glared at Li Wushang, but because he wanted to save face, he naturally would not criticize his ignorant disciple in front of outsiders, so he forced himself to change the subject and ask.

Li Wushang said "Oh" and said:

"Those people belonging to the Tianyuan Island Master were all killed by Envoy Zhao."

Then she said happily:

"I heard he also killed that Qing Mu? So, all ten elders of Qiandao are dead."

What is the real big devil?

That's it.

The Tianyuan Island Masters are dead... The Ten Great Island Masters are all dead... All killed by Zhao Duan...

This news was like another thunderclap to the ears of Shui Bei and others. Moreover, compared with Wu Xiankui's death, these local people cared more about the latter.

Shui Bei looked at the woman beside him blankly:

"Island Master, the elders are all dead..."

The island master Hongshan was also confused for a moment, but who would have thought she could be the island master? After a brief moment of shock, she quickly came to her senses, her eyes lit up, and she excitedly grasped Shuibei's hand, her lips trembling as she said:

"The history of the Thousand Islands is about to be rewritten. Our Hongshan Island will no longer be bullied..."

Even though Hongshan Island is still weak among the remaining islands...

but……

When today's events spread, it will be obvious that the Dayu court represented by Zhao Duan will become the force that actually rules the Thousand Islands.

And because of today's pledge of allegiance and its relationship with Ji Yue, Hongshan Island is bound to become the spokesperson for the imperial court.

Thinking of this, several people looked at Ji Yue, their minds full of mixed emotions. They had never expected that this tribe member who had defected a few years ago would bring about all these earth-shaking changes today...

But Ji Yue had no such thoughts in her mind at the moment. She just heard that all the ten elders were dead. She stood on the deck blankly, with wet tears falling from her white eyes.

Great revenge has been taken.

Her master actually helped her kill all her enemies from that time.

Meanwhile, Li Wushangdao was also chattering, telling Zhang Yanyi about the existence of the island on the seabed. The old Taoist priest was amazed and wanted to go down to the sea to observe it, but he quickly gave up the idea:

"Forget it. Now the Sea God has returned to the Silent Sea and fallen asleep again. I'm afraid that the island will be inaccessible."

Li Wushangdao asked in surprise, "The Sea God is asleep? Why?"

Zhao Duan said calmly, "Because a person was sacrificed."

"Who is it?"

"Wu Xiankui."

“?!!”

Zhao Duan ignored the female devil, turned his head to look at Hongshan Island Master and others, and said lightly:

"I have important matters to attend to, so I must leave now."

They were stunned for a moment before they understood something and realized that it was time to get off the boat and say goodbye.

The Hongshan Island Master suppressed his excitement and bowed:

"If you have free time in the future, you can come to Thousand Islands as a guest. We will definitely prepare a banquet..."

Zhao Duan waved his hand and said:

"There will be opportunities later."

He was still very curious about the vast East China Sea and planned to explore more secrets in the future.

But right now he just wanted to return to Beijing.

"Ji Yue, do you want to stay?" Zhao Duan looked at Ji Yue.

Ji Yue came back to her senses with a start, but took a firm step forward, followed him, and just looked at him without saying a word.

Zhao Duan smiled and said, "Follow me if you want."

On the other side, Li Wushangdao was standing by the side of the ship, looking very sad and beautiful, bidding a tearful farewell to the twenty or so sorcerers below.

"Master's orders are hard to disobey. I will miss you..."

The sorcerers' eyes were red: "My king, we are waiting for your return~"

Zhang Yanyi almost fainted, and said with a flick of his sleeves:

"Let's go!"

With the sails flapping, the ship quickly moved away and headed west.

Soon, the people of Qiandao had turned into small dots. As for how this group of people would deal with the aftermath, it was not Zhao Duan's concern.

After the sea god fell asleep, the entire sea surface became much calmer.

The group quickly left the island area and headed towards the "gate".

This time, conditions permitting, Zhao Duan planned to go back through the door, which would be faster.

A few hours later, when the sun was setting, the ship finally arrived at an empty sea.

"Why are we stopping here?"

Li Wushangdao asked curiously.

Zhao Duan ignored her and made another hand gesture. Soon, a huge portal slowly emerged on the sea.

"You go first." Zhao Duan said calmly, wanting to maintain the existence of the portal.

Li Wushangdao was shocked. He turned around and saw Jin Jian carrying a huge package. He flew up impatiently, crashed into the door and disappeared.

"Let's go."

Zhang Yan glanced at the traitor, reached out and grabbed Li Wushangdao, then went into the gate and put the boat back into his sleeve.

Then came Tuoba Weizhi and Jiyue.

After everyone left, Zhao Duan turned his head and looked again at the setting sun that was slowly sinking into the sea, then took a step forward!

…

…

Capital city, Taimiao.

The group walked out of the secret passage, pushed open the door of the Taimiao Hall, and saw the scenery of the capital in the evening.

The colorful clouds in the western sky sprinkled on the deep red palace walls, and straight wisps of smoke could be seen outside the walls.

“I’m back!”

Zhao Duan exhaled deeply, was briefly dazed, and smiled:

"It seems we are lucky."

This time, not only did he quickly get the key back, he also took the opportunity to kill the enemy Wu Xiankui. In this way, he didn't have to worry about this escaped celestial being causing trouble behind him.

Li Wushangdao stared at her surroundings in amazement. She rubbed her cheeks fiercely and murmured:

"You're back to the capital already? Master, even if you try your best to travel, it's still no match for this little hair..."

"..." Zhang Yan said expressionlessly: "Slap!"

Li Wushangdao shuddered, and quickly reached out and slapped himself on the face, not too hard or too lightly. Then, he smiled and pulled the old Taoist's sleeve and acted coquettishly:

"Master, I was wrong..."

Zhao Duan was watching from the side, amazed, thinking to himself, "Old Deng, are you having something going on with your disciple?"

Ahem, just kidding. He wanted to laugh mainly because he saw Lao Zhang’s face which was as black as the bottom of a pot.

Zhang Yanyi glanced at Zhao Duan:

"I was injured in the battle with Wu Xiankui, so I'll go back and recuperate. As for the last string of code..."

Zhao Duan said, "I'll take care of this."

He had long guessed that the final code to open the golden gate was hidden in the painting "The World".

So, next he planned to wait for Zhenbao to come back, and then they would go together to get the password.

After that, it’s time to head to Mubei Forest and uncover all its secrets.

The secret of everything.

Zhao Duan was dazed for a moment and actually a little nervous. He knew that it would involve his own "origins".

Zhang Yan nodded, grabbed Li Wushangdao and the golden tablet, and rode away on the blue cloud.

Zhao Duan looked at Tuoba Weizhi and Jiyue and said with a smile:

"Let's go too."

The three men did not use any magic, but walked out in a swagger, which scared the imperial guards guarding the Taimiao.

However, when he saw that it was Zhao Duan, even though he had countless doubts in his heart, he suppressed them all.

At this time, the sun had already sunk into the horizon. Zhao Duan thought for a moment, took out his badge and handed it to Ji Yue, asking her to take Tuoba Weizhi back to the imperial court to rest and have a meal.

Then, he came to the Martial Arts Hall alone.

After greeting Eunuch Hai, he walked to the fourth floor of the old building, pushed open the door, and the oil lamp in the house was lit, and the lanterns on the eaves also lit up.

Zhao Duan glanced at the "Xu Zhenguan" sitting cross-legged in meditation under the stone wall. He felt a pang of evil interest and walked over to pinch her face...

The battle in the East China Sea caused such a big commotion that he was not sure whether the empress could sense it, but even if not, the empress should come back from time to time to check on the situation.

However, just as Zhao Duan was about to reach out and pinch the face of Xu Zhenguan's "puppet body".

Suddenly, the eyelashes of the sleeping puppet trembled and it opened its eyes.

Zhao Duan: "...Your Majesty, you're back early? Have you eaten?"

Xu Zhenguan: "Haha."

Staring at Zhao Duan with a dangerous look, she withdrew her hand with a wry smile. The Queen of Yu snorted coldly, stood up, her skirt fluttering, and said lightly:

"I've been back for a while, waiting for you to come back."

Are you sure you didn't mean to scare me?

Zhao Duan complained in his heart, then he became serious and said seriously:

"Your Majesty, I have a good opportunity to report to you that our trip to the East China Sea has been a complete success."
