Facing Zhang Mingtu, the anxiety on Xue Cheng's face was not fake.
"Brother, something big has happened. It's really big, something earth-shattering. The ruins of a Dragon Palace have appeared at the mouth of the Yangtze River, and something incredible has appeared in the ruins of the Dragon Palace."
As Xue Cheng spoke, he carefully observed Zhang Mingtu's expression, taking in every change, but there was no change on Zhang Mingtu's face.
Zhang Mingtu remained calm and composed, writing and drawing on the desk in front of him without pausing for too long.
Xue Cheng's heart not only did not let go, but it was lifted up: "What happened in the Dragon Palace?"
"When the ruins of the Dragon Palace are discovered, a large number of people will go there to grab the treasures. No matter how unlikely it is, it will never be exposed."
Seeing that Zhang Mingtu didn't react much, Xue Cheng suddenly became anxious.
He was not polite and simply pulled over a stool and sat down right in front of Zhang Mingtu.
"If it were just the remains of a Dragon Palace, it wouldn't be a big deal. They've appeared over the years, but this Dragon Palace is different.
"There are nine transformations of dragons and snakes in the Dragon Palace!"
"What is that?"
Zhang Mingtu's expression remained unchanged, only the corner of his mouth curved slightly. Xue Cheng didn't notice, but his face was filled with anxiety: "From the acquired to the innate, to achieve the body of a true dragon."
"This really broke the news, and the entire Jiangnan region was in an uproar."
"oh!"
Zhang Mingtu's expression changed this time, and he finally put down his pen. The five-clawed little green dragon standing on Zhang Mingtu's shoulder rolled its eyes.
"Fake news, right? If something like this happened, the local Jinyiwei and Liushenmen would go crazy and do everything in their power to suppress the news. No matter what, it would never be allowed to spread so widely that even you heard it."
As a person specializing in intelligence work, Xue Cheng had confirmed the news several times before it reached this place, and his face was full of anxiety at this moment.
"Yes, that's true under normal circumstances. The local Jinyiwei and Liushenmen have done their utmost to block the news. Even Dazu in the south of the Yangtze River has joined forces to block the news, but today they can no longer block it.
"Someone went deep into the Dragon Palace ahead of time and took away some of the treasures. It seems that the entire Nine Transformations of Dragon and Snake was taken away by that group of people, and they also triggered the mechanism in the Dragon Palace.
"The spiritual energy within the Dragon Palace naturally condensed, exposing the situation inside the Dragon Palace to the eyes of those outside. It was even projected into the void, visible even from miles away. This is simply impossible to block."
"Why are the many wealthy families and noble families in Jiangnan doing their utmost to suppress the news?"
"They are not blocking news from us, but from the royal family. They are doing their best to memorize the inheritance in the Dragon Palace and spread the news as far as possible so that more people can know it, so as to avoid being killed and silenced later.
"This must have been a tacit agreement between the Six Gates and the Embroidered Uniform Guards at the scene. They initially wanted to seal it off, but found it impossible, so they postponed spreading the news to Kyoto for a day. Now, colleagues throughout Jiangnan know that something serious has happened there."
As Xue Cheng spoke, he took out a photo stone and placed it in front of Zhang Mingtu.
Without waiting for Zhang Mingtu to say anything, he took the initiative to touch the stone, causing it to glow. Suddenly, a strange scene appeared in the stone. Densely packed ships and crowds of people blocked the entire lower reaches of the Yangtze River.
And in the very center, there is a magnificent Dragon Palace projected on the sky, fully revealing the scene inside the Dragon Palace.
There was a big hole in the real core area of the Dragon Palace, which was the location of the Dragon Palace that was taken away by the real dragon.
All that remained were ruins, numerous corals, and some strange remnants of alchemy furnace formations whose original appearance could no longer be seen.
There was only one place that could be seen very clearly, and that was a huge stone tablet. The stone tablet was not completely cut off, and part of the text was not clear.
But the fonts in the previous part are very clear and concise, and the opening words are four very shocking big characters - Nine Transformations of Dragon and Snake.
The stone tablet was not indestructible, but was simply made of marble with special inscriptions engraved inside. It was difficult to destroy in a short period of time and had special properties.
The font above shows signs of deletion and revision, but from the bold text it can be seen that it is a complete ancient text.
Above Zhang Mingtu's shoulder, Xiaoqing's eyes were almost rolling up to the sky.
His claws kept hitting Zhang Mingtu's shoulders, as if he was accusing Zhang Mingtu of tracking and making trouble in his Dragon Palace that day.
Xue Cheng didn't care and looked extremely serious.
"There's absolutely no way to stop this matter. After a night of fermentation, people from many aristocratic families and sects have obtained this incomplete manual. I even suspect that the people from those aristocratic families and sects are actively selling it, and that someone has used a teleportation array to transmit this related manual to the north.
"Just recently, a captain of the local Jinyiwei sent a message to Kyoto. Half a day after he delivered the message, someone in the north also reported the same news to Kyoto. This is a blatant slap in the face."
“It’s wonderful.”
Zhang Mingtu had a puzzled look on his face. He had deliberately left a backup plan just to make this happen. He had thought that many people in Jiangnan would be arrogant, but he had not expected that they would be so arrogant.
They actually publicly blocked this most important secret, and then delayed it for a day to let the news spread throughout the world, and then reported it to Kyoto.
