The cold seawater flowed silently.
Chen Tianwen and Ao Huang looked at each other in the water, not yet understanding what was happening, when they saw Shi Yan, Xue Shu, and the Ancient Snake King being thrown out together.
Shi Yan regained consciousness quickly, and the weight lifted from her heart the moment she saw Chen Tianwen.
"How did we suddenly get out here?"
Before he could finish speaking, before his surprise had subsided, he noticed the ancient snake king beside him.
A big question mark popped up above my head: How could the Snake King lose face like this and be kicked out by the Spirit Realm?
To everyone's surprise, the ancient serpent king beside him burst into tears, looking extremely grief-stricken.
He recounted the story while sobbing.
"My daughter was kicked out by the spirit, accused of betraying it!"
My daughter is still young, how could she possibly betray the Spirit Realm!
Pang Aohuang's ears turned red quietly to the side, unnoticed by others, but Chen Tianwen was the first to notice his odd behavior.
"Ao Huang, what exactly happened!"
Upon hearing Chen Tianwen's question, Shi Yan and the Ancient Serpent King both looked at Ao Huang.
Ao Huang, standing to the side, clearly knew that he would absolutely not be able to deliver on his promise if he didn't explain things clearly today.
So he could only hesitantly tell everyone the actual situation.
"Princess Xue Shu and I searched for the spirit of the realm. Although we didn't know what had gotten into the spirit, it attacked us the moment it saw us!"
Why are you searching for the spirits of the realm?
This is the ancient serpent king's question.
"What on earth has gone mad?"
This is what Chen Tianwen found puzzling.
Two questions arose in Ao Huang's ears at the same time.
Chen Tianwen glanced at the Ancient Serpent King, then casually waved his hand, letting him ask first.
The ancient serpent king was extremely grateful. He glanced at Chen Tianwen excitedly and asked the rest of his questions.
"Xue Shu has always been a good child. I once warned her not to seek out the spirit of the realm. Her cultivation level is still very low. She can only see the spirit of the realm when she reaches the fifth level of demon beast, or after I step down."
She has never disobeyed my orders without my consent.
Right after saying that, the Ancient Serpent King probably felt that he had been too absolute, so he quietly added another sentence.
"Of course, this serious illness of mine is an exception!"
Ao Huang's voice trailed off, for he knew perfectly well that the ancient serpent king before him was telling the truth.
"I forced Her Highness to go in!"
Finally, he quietly told the truth.
"Why are you forcing my daughter! You have no idea what the real situation is!"
The ancient serpent king's expression was extremely unpleasant, but judging from his demeanor, he probably wouldn't easily reveal the truth.
He just stood there, brooding.
Chen Tianwen was speechless. Ao Huang's personality really needed to be changed.
Although he could roam freely in this Heavenly Profound Realm, there were other experts around. For example, Jing Ling today, if he hadn't taken action, Ao Huang, with his cultivation level, wouldn't have been able to leave this small secret realm without spilling some dragon blood.
At this opportune moment, Shi Yan added, "This Ao Huang really needs to be taught a lesson. What if something like this happens again in the future?"
After saying this, Shi Yan smiled inwardly. "You're going to compete with me for the second place, but the second place will definitely be mine from now on."
Poor Ao Huang had no idea why Shi Yan would suddenly say such a thing, so he could only glare at Shi Yan and grin at him.
Upon hearing this, the ancient serpent king forgot to cry and, with tears in his eyes, directly accused Chen Tianwen.
"The young man in blue next to me is right! You must avenge my daughter!"
As soon as she finished speaking, tears streamed down her face. If Shi Yan hadn't been supporting her, she would have been unable to continue at all!
Ao Huang was filled with bitterness. Why had he been so foolish as to go looking for trouble with Jing Ling? Not only had he gained nothing, but he had also gotten himself into a mess.
So he could only say dejectedly, "I do want to take responsibility, but we're looking for a demon god next. How can I take responsibility?"
The moment those words left his mouth, Ao Huang instantly realized that this was an excellent way to decline.
So he pretended to be even more grief-stricken, as if leaving Xue Shu and not taking responsibility was not his fault.
Unexpectedly, the eyes of the ancient snake king on the other side lit up. If the dragon king was going to take responsibility, his silly daughter was going to become the dragon king's concubine. Wasn't that easy to handle?
Perhaps, by taking a gamble, the concubine could become the principal wife, and then their Heavenly Snow Serpent clan would directly become the overlords of the ocean.
Anyway, he wouldn't be able to return to the secret realm after getting his daughter. This silly daughter even tied her marriage vow to the Dragon King for his sake.
Although it was to save the Dragon King, the marriage agreement was real.
With the Dragon King's master present, this marriage must be finalized no matter what!
Then, all that could be seen was the ancient serpent king bowing his head and weeping.
"Did my daughter make a vow within you to save you in the secret realm?"
"yes!"
Ao Huang's expression was now very natural. Since he had already admitted that he had forced the princess to search for the spirit, there was nothing wrong with admitting that she would help him!
When will you hold the wedding with my daughter?
The ancient serpent king's eyes blazed with intense fury, as if he was prepared to personally take to the field if Ao Huang didn't agree!
Although everyone present knew he was bluffing, that didn't stop them from knowing that he was in a very bad mood.
What are you saying?
Ao Huang was furious. He never expected that a casual remark he made would become a shackle on his marriage.
Even Chen Tianwen and Shi Yan, who were standing nearby, were completely bewildered. Had the Ancient Serpent King gone mad with anger? Ao Huang was the Dragon King, and normally dragons marry dragons, right?
Is it possible for a dragon to marry a snake?
"You still won't admit it!"
The ancient serpent king looked like he was about to vomit blood.
"If it weren't for my daughter's vow, how could you be standing here safely!"
"My daughter is so kind, why did she save a heartless demon like you!"
The ancient serpent king lay on the rock, wailing and crying. If Shi Yan hadn't gently helped him up, he probably would have rolled around in the sea several times.
Ao Huang looked at the Ancient Serpent King with a puzzled expression. "No, you forced your own daughter to agree to this marriage vow without even consulting me! I'm an innocent dragon, and I haven't even had a chance to cry yet. Why are you crying?"
Ao Huang was truly at a loss for words and could only place his hopes on Chen Tianwen.
I hope my master will take pity on my loyalty these past few days and save me!
Chen Tianwen was also at his wit's end. If he were to stand up for Ao Huang, what would happen to the princess?
If we stand up for the princess, what will happen to Ao Huang?
It was a tough choice. Just as Chen Tianwen was pondering how to resolve the situation, Xue Shu, who had been motionless in the sea for a long time, gently opened her eyes.
