A happy son-in-law has always been a compliment and a beautiful vision.

"Senior Long Jun asked you..." Zhou Qing thought for a moment and said, "Then how did you answer?"

Ao Xuanwei stared at Zhou Qing, motionless, making him feel a little uneasy.

Suddenly, the dragon girl smiled.

"I'm still young, not yet that age. My father just asked casually and didn't mean to make the decision for me."

"Still young...Excuse me, how old are you?"

The dragon girl shook her head. "We dragons have a long life span. The same age means something different to you humans. We can't think in the same way as humans."

Can the dragon race grow as tall as me? Bring them out for comparison! The comparison is limited to this month.

"But I haven't held the True Dragon Ceremony yet."

"What kind of ceremony is this?"

Zhou Qing had never heard of such a thing as the True Dragon Ceremony before. After all, he only had the Dragon Girl as his dragon friend.

However, he also thinks Yang Teng is his "friend", but it is a pity that Yang Teng may not think so.

"Among the dragon race, this is a ceremony held specifically for the descendants of their bloodline." The dragon girl explained:

"For a descendant of the Dragon King of a certain area like my father, if a True Dragon Ceremony is held, it means that the descendant has the qualifications and ability to live on his own, and his status will change."

"Generally speaking, after the True Dragon Ceremony, the dragons will leave the waters where their parents are and go to other waters to open up their own water palaces, rule over an area, and become the lord of the waters."

"I have several brothers who performed the True Dragon Ceremony early on and have been managing other waters for many years."

Zhou Qing now understood that it was the dragon clan's coming of age ceremony.

Of course, Ao Xuanwei must be over eighteen years old.

After crossing this line, Zhou Qing no longer felt any burden or taboo when interacting with her.

"So after you hold the True Dragon Ceremony, will you also open a government in other waters?"

"It's hard to say." The dragon girl shook her head, "After all, I am different from my brothers."

"But building a water palace is indeed the responsibility of every Dragon King's descendant, and it will also be of great benefit to us. I personally have this idea."

This matter is of great significance to the major dragon palaces.

Building a water palace and managing the water area can not only train the abilities of the Dragon King's descendants, but also be beneficial to their cultivation improvement.

The orthodox dragon clan all have relevant secret methods to enable their descendants to benefit from the process of establishing a government and controlling water.

And by doing so, it is also expanding the territory of Dragon Palace and enhancing its influence.

There are many benefits to a dragon son or daughter setting up their own palace.

A descendant of the Dragon King who performed the True Dragon Ceremony but did not go out to establish a residence would generally be looked down upon, unless under extremely special circumstances.

"If you need my help, just ask. I will do my best to help you."

Zhou Qing made the promise very seriously.

"I won't be polite with you." The dragon girl smiled and said, "I will also invite you when I hold the True Dragon Ceremony."

"It's in Yunjiang Dragon Palace."

When she said this, the dragon girl's smile became even more intense.

Zhou Qing said without hesitation: "I will definitely be there."

Although the Dragon Girl had invited him to the Yunjiang Dragon Palace many times before, he had refused every time.

But the past is the past, and the present is the present. The situation is different, and the relationship is also different.

There will be no problem going to Yunjiang Dragon Palace.

It’s not impossible to go to Longtan!

Zhou Qing thought about the human rules and asked, "When participating in the True Dragon Ceremony, you usually have to present a gift, right?"

"Just whatever you want." The dragon girl said indifferently, "I don't care about these."

"You can't do this casually." Zhou Qing said, "Don't worry, I will definitely give you enough face when the day comes."

We must fill up the table as much as possible.

"Go out for a walk."

The dragon girl stood up, and Zhou Qing followed closely. The two of them came to the island in the middle of the lake. The evening breeze brushed their faces, making them feel peaceful.

Zhou Qing and his companion walked around the island, chatting casually, and were quite happy.

"Master Lu has passed on the Heavenly Thunder and Earthly Fire Seal to you. Some people in Xuandu Temple may have a problem with you because of this." Dragon Girl said, "After all, this is a unique and peerless Taoist technique. Its value is so high that it is unimaginable. It will arouse greed in people's hearts, even among their fellow disciples and even their elders."

"With this technique, there is hope for a bright future."

Zhou Qing's eyes were dim. "What Aunt Mo gave me has nothing to do with other people. The head of Xuandu Temple said in person that she has full authority over this technique."

"If you are dissatisfied, then be dissatisfied. I don't care what those strangers think. I have already prepared myself. It is impossible for the elders of Xuandu Temple to come and kill me directly, right?"

"That's of course impossible." The Dragon Girl shook her head.

"But I have learned some things on purpose. Back then, there was a big disturbance in Xuandu Temple over the opportunity to inherit this peerless Taoist technique."

"Although I don't know what happened exactly, two deputy hall masters and several elders were punished and confined to reflect on their mistakes. It was only after that that Lu Duguan came to Black Cloud Town."

Inside Xuandu Temple, there are four halls and nine peaks. Every hall master and peak master is a master who is superior to the Yin Shen Zhen Xue realm.

Those at the Yin Shen Zhen Xue realm serve as elders in each hall and peak. To ordinary disciples, the hall masters and peak masters are almost invisible, so the elders are very majestic.

"The treasure is so touching." Zhou Qing sighed softly.

Zhou Qing also thought of what the Dragon Girl said after he learned about some of Lu Qingmo's past.

The filth surrounding a peerless Taoist technique is absolutely unimaginable and extremely ugly.

The reason why Lu Qingmo went to Heiyun was definitely not just because Bai Ruoyue was here.

Xuandu Temple is a thousand-year-old sect. The conflicts within it are probably almost as intense as those in the royal family. It may even be more intense. It is impossible for all factions to be harmonious with each other.

The fact that Lu Qingmo was forced to come to a remote place like Heiyun Town shows how complicated the struggle was at that time.

But since this technique has been mastered by him, it has nothing to do with others.

It's not like he secretly learned the Taoist magic from Xuandu Temple. This is Lu Qingmo's personal property.

Ever since Lu Qingmo started teaching him, every Taoist technique she taught him had nothing to do with Xuandu Temple. She was very sensible and would never leak the Xuandu inheritance.

Even if some disciples from Xuandu Temple had opinions about him because of this, he didn't care.

"I heard from Aunt Mo that her master has been in seclusion for eighteen years?" Zhou Qing asked, "Do you know anything about this?"

"Lu Duguan's master is also a famous strong man in Xuandu Temple. If she can take this step, she will be at the same level as the deputy master of Xuandu Temple. Her status will be unimaginably high."

"Looking around the world, he is one of the most skilled experts."

The master of Xuandu Temple has great power over the world, but the important affairs of Xuandu Temple are basically handled by the deputy master.

The master of Xuandu Temple seldom makes any decisions, but as long as he exists, he is like a stabilizing force.

In such a world, if a strong man on the Mountain and River List controls a force, you don't have to worry about being sidelined even if you don't show up for a hundred years.

Fist means power.

"Then you haven't come out of seclusion after eighteen years. Is this normal?"

The dragon girl shook her head, "I don't know either."

"To break through that barrier, the time required is not fixed. Some people may break through in an instant, while others may have to sit for decades."

"Don't worry. Since no clear news has been released, it means that the senior did not fail in his breakthrough. If he failed and died, Xuandu Temple would have naturally noticed it."

Of course, it certainly didn't succeed.

As a great sect with thousands of years of history, it has seen all kinds of storms and situations. It is impossible to judge that a high-level cultivator is dead just because she has not come out for more than ten years.

You have to provide evidence.

“I hope it will work.”

Zhou Qing’s sincere wishes.

As the night deepened, the flying carpet rushed out of Yunlong City.

Originally, the Dragon Girl wanted to keep Zhou Qing to rest for a night, but when she thought that Bai Ruoyue knew her whereabouts, the senior sister would probably be furious if she didn't return all night, so she politely declined the Dragon Girl's offer.

There is a "tiger" at home!

On the way, Zhou Qing carefully sensed his surroundings to make sure that no one was spying on him.

Then he called An Lang out.

"An Lang, do you want to see what the most brilliant moment of a person's life looks like?"

An Lang was a little confused. She was sleeping soundly, but was suddenly woken up. Now Zhou Qing was saying something incomprehensible.

There must be something really wrong with you, young master.

"What do you mean?" An Lang asked.

Zhou Qing didn't give him any explanation and secretly practiced Taoist magic.

Lifespan, burning! "Boom!"

A terrifying and violent aura poured out, and An Lang was directly blown away. The flying carpet was impacted and shook.

Zhou Qing threw the Taoist magic he was using to An Lang so that she would understand what he was doing.

An Lang quickly scanned the Taoist magic, and the whole ghost was dumbfounded.

"Master, are you crazy?!"

Please...collect 6_9_book_bar (Six//Nine//Book//bar)

"I'm not crazy."

Zhou Qing opened his arms and let the night wind blow on him.

"On the contrary, I have never felt so refreshed. I seem to have seen the fairyland."

"At this moment, I feel like I can kill a master in the realm of enlightenment!"

In the state of burning life, Zhou Qing sensed the surroundings again and found that there was really no one spying on him.

"Master, you are playing with your life! You are wasting your lifespan!"

"I know, this is an unprecedented experience, and I enjoy it very much." Zhou Qing smiled and said, "This kind of power makes me intoxicated."

An Lang was stunned. It's over. The young master has gone crazy. He is putting his life on display. I am going to die too.

After the effect of this longevity technique ended, An Lang trembled and approached Zhou Qing, "Boom!"

Then Zhou Qing used a longevity-burning martial art, and his aura surged again.

An Lang held his head in disbelief.

"Why are you here again!"

Zhou Qing said calmly:

"Experience the difference in power brought by burning different lifespans. In the future, when facing different enemies, you will be able to burn lifespans accurately."

"This is life! Not air!"

"I know." Zhou Qing smiled lightly.

"But this is just art, life, and material possessions. It's not worth mentioning!"

“Wuwuwu…”

An Lang cried bitterly and went crazy, really crazy, and there was no way to communicate at all.

Even though no one would believe that life span is something outside of the body, someone actually said it.

"Sir, please don't burn it. I'm scared. Don't burn it like that. Don't burn it, wuwuwu..."

She has only seen the light of day for a few months and doesn't want to die yet!

What she didn't want even more was that the ghost rider burned his own life and killed himself, which ended up implicating her.

After taking a look at An Lang, whose face was filled with devastation, Zhou Qing shook his head.

Still too immature and can't withstand any big storms.

"An Lang, you have such a bad character!"

They are just material possessions, so just burn them.

Zhou Qing sensed that he had burned his lifespan several times, but in the end, he had not consumed even 0.3% of the [Eternal Longevity Fruit].

He would have to burn at least 330 years of his lifespan every day to burn up the [Eternal Longevity Fruit] within this month.

But obviously, he can't burn that much every day.

His current behavior was just to show it to An Lang.

After everything was over, An Lang lay on the flying carpet, his body limp, his eyes dull and his expression numb.

"I'm going to die soon, my body is going to break down, please stop burning me..."

An Lang muttered to himself unconsciously.

Zhou Qing patted An Lang's head.

"Don't go crazy here."

"Sir, what are you doing?"

An Lang jumped up and shouted, "You are going too far. How could you do such a thing?"

"Not only do I do this, you will have to do it later too." Zhou Qing said, "Remember to practice the life-eating ghost, and then devour my life essence to practice. Just absorb as much as you can."

"How about I treat you well?"

Zhou Qing began to persuade An Lang, "Looking around the world, there is definitely no other ghost rider willing to train their own ghost riders in this way."

"An Lang, for you, I really don't even want my life anymore. You have to work hard to make incense and refine pills in the future."

"If you leave me, I don't know how you will survive. No one will be willing to pay such a price to train you."

An Lang was at a loss, "Why is this happening?"

How can a person be so crazy as to squander his life so recklessly?

Apart from being crazy and not wanting to live, An Lang really couldn't find any other reason.

"Don't ask too much. Just suck it well. Don't worry about hurting me. I'll ask Aunt Mo to check your body when we get back. You'll know then."

Zhou Qing didn't even need to ask An Lang to keep it a secret. As the ghost master, An Lang couldn't tell anyone if he didn't want to.

Just like that, while An Lang was at a loss, the flying carpet rushed into Heiyun Town.

Peach forest.

To Zhou Qing's surprise, Bai Ruoyue was also there.

When he saw Zhou Qing, he immediately said.

"You're back so late."

Damn it, he came to check on me! "I stayed there for a meal."

"Has the goal been achieved?" Lu Qingmo asked.

"Yes, I exchanged a few techniques with Ao Xuanwei." Zhou Qing took the initiative to say, "Aunt Mo, come and check it out."

An Lang became alert, and watched Lu Qingmo's various actions on Zhou Qing eagerly, and finally nodded.

"The vitality is stable, and the life span is intact. It is true that no longevity technique has been used."

An Lang was dumbfounded. How could it be possible? She had clearly seen it with her own eyes! The young master was extremely feverish! Sister Lu, please look carefully!

Zhou Qing looked normal, not surprised at all.

Humph, just external possessions.

An Lang remained silent, as if she was in a dream. She certainly wouldn't be stupid enough to ask Zhou Qing directly what was going on.

An Lang knew better than anyone who she belonged to, who she stood with, and who she was in the same boat with.

Bai Ruoyue will rest in the peach forest tonight. After returning to the room, An Lang signaled her with his eyes.

Zhou Qing nodded, "Tell it, no one will know."

"Sir, what is going on?"

"To put it simply, I don't have to worry about my life span in the short term, I won't be afraid of loss, and there will be no future troubles."

"How could this happen..." An Lang couldn't understand.

"Don't worry about it. How is the longevity-eating ghost doing?"

"That Taoist technique is not difficult and can be easily mastered."

"Then speed up and try to practice tonight, then start sucking my life."

"I really want to suck you?"

"suck!"
