Nan Yu scratched the back of her head sheepishly and said shyly, "Thank you, Senior Sister. You protected me and gave me guidance. I should be grateful to you."
I was so moved I almost cried!
Wei Wenru looked at her, smiling with satisfaction. She had originally wanted to refuse Nan Yu, but then she thought about it again...
She really only had one request.
"Then could you...stop pretending to be a Taoist priest? Also, could you advise Wanwan to stop acting so strangely?" She really didn't mean to say that, but she felt that if Nanyu and the others continued to act like this, she would make herself sick!
It's really too hard to accept.
Hearing this, Nan Yu became even more embarrassed: "I understand, senior sister, I will do as you say. But as for Wanwan... I can't persuade her, after all, she's quite happy, so maybe we should just let it go."
Wei Wenru took a deep breath. This is for the best.
"Okay, that's settled then, let's go!"
The two walked forward in silence until they reached the entrance of a palace, and they did not say another word.
The light source emanates from here, and the plaque of the palace bears the two large, glittering golden characters "Yaochi," giving it an ethereal and otherworldly appearance.
The two exchanged a glance, pushed open the heavy door, and cautiously looked up inside.
"Come in." A calm, slightly aged female voice suddenly came from inside the palace.
Wei Wenru and Nan Yu were both frightened.
However, the two still mustered their courage and pushed open the door. Wei Wenru took the lead and clasped her hands, saying, "Senior, my junior brother and sister and I are disciples of the Tianji Sect. We entered the secret realm for training the day before yesterday. A few hours ago, the three of us passed by this lake and were unexpectedly swept into your underground palace."
The three of us juniors had no intention of offending you, senior, or disturbing your cultivation. We beg your forgiveness. We will leave once we find our junior sister and will not take even a single blade of grass from you.
After she finished speaking, she looked up at the owner of the female voice.
It was a huge... coiled azure dragon, extremely lazy yet exuding immense pressure.
Her body was enormous, with a thick, long tail, and her scales shimmered with a bluish light. Compared to the Sixth Elder, her limbs were powerful, and her figure was imposing.
It truly lives up to its name as an ancient mythical beast.
The Azure Dragon coiled on the jade bed, her eyes slightly open, exuding a lazy aura. All the spiritual energy in the entire palace was gathered into the Azure Dragon's body, making her shine like the most dazzling star in the underground palace.
With just one glance, Wei Wenru was so overwhelmed by the oppressive aura that she dared not look up again, and so did Nan Yu.
"Oh, there's another one?" The Azure Dragon lazily flicked her tail, still quite annoyed at being woken up, but the other person smelled like a dragon cub.
"Whose aura are these on you? I didn't expect that you, a dragon, could also enter the secret realm and seem quite familiar with it. Kid, where did you come from?" The Azure Dragon finally opened its eyes and looked at Nan Yu with suspicion.
The fish's hair stood on end; it was really scary!
“Senior… I come from the Qinghu Secret Realm. I was a little black snake who underwent tribulation and became a dragon. My younger sister is a dragon cub.” Nan Yu immediately revealed his background with trepidation, but he did not mention Nian Wanzhou’s special identity.
He had witnessed the horror of the red dragon eating its own kind, and he feared that the green dragon was also a pervert who ate its own kind's cubs.
The Azure Dragon straightened its upper body and swayed. "It's been thousands of years, and I've never heard of a dragon cub being born. How rare! You're something else, kid. You actually managed to undergo tribulation and transform into a dragon. It seems like becoming a dragon is just around the corner."
"Don't be afraid, I'm not like those old perverts like the Red Dragon. I don't eat people or dragon cubs. Let me find out where that dragon cub went."
"Thank you so much, senior."
Wei Wenru and Nan Yu exchanged a glance and both breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, the senior was not the kind of unreasonable powerful being. Not only that, but he also kindly helped them search for Nian Wanzhou's whereabouts. He was truly a great dragon!
The Azure Dragon stretched out its claw and pointed at the air. Soon, a phantom appeared in front of her, and she swiped for a long time.
Finally, they found a tiny, white dragon in her hot spring pool.
Azure Dragon: ?
What is this thing?
"Your junior sister... she's a white dragon? How did she end up in my hot spring pool and get lost? Really..." The Azure Dragon was speechless. This silly child was trapped in the pool by her jade lotus and couldn't get out.
Wandering around aimlessly, looking for an exit.
"Yes, she is... a little white dragon." Wei Wenru had no choice but to admit it; there was no point in hiding it any longer.
I hope Senior Qinglong won't be angry.
"I knew it! No wonder the aura was so familiar. It's that friendly little dragon cub." The Azure Dragon was overjoyed the moment it saw Nian Wanzhou.
The entire dragon stood up and flew around the palace.
Before she could scare the two children below to death, she finally finished being excited and said, "I have a connection with your Heavenly Mystery Sect. Your Golden Dragon Elder is actually related to me in some way."
What's the relationship?
The two, Nan and Yu, exchanged gossipy glances, both seeing in each other's eyes, despite the immense pressure, 'Could it be that they have some kind of special relationship?'
But they dared not say a word.
"Alright, I won't scare you anymore. I'll bring her over here." The Azure Dragon transformed into human form.
She transformed into a young woman in a green robe. Although she was over three thousand years old, she was still as beautiful as ever, and every smile and frown exuded charm. She gently stroked the hair on her forehead and beckoned to the two of them: "Come sit here and tell me about what's happening outside. I've been asleep for hundreds of years and don't even know what's become of the outside world."
Nan Yu quickly agreed and followed behind Wei Wenru, walking forward step by step.
Qinglong then came to the tea table, reclining leisurely.
While waiting for the New Year's Eve boat to arrive, the two could only chat about the interesting things happening outside.
This includes the recent incident of the black mist wreaking havoc in the Guixu Sect.
This startled Qinglong, who sat up straight. "There's actually such a thing? That black mist thing is getting more and more audacious, even suppressing the sect competition. Tsk tsk."
"By the way, my name is Qingyun. You can call me Senior Qingyun." Qingyun didn't want others to confuse her identity, so she directly revealed her real name to reassure the two juniors.
"How did you find the dragon cub? I haven't seen such a small cub in two thousand years."
Faced with Qingyun's question, Wei Wenru handed the floor to Nanyu.
Nan Yu: Senior sister, thank you...
"I met Wanwan in the Qinghu Secret Realm. At that time, she was still an egg in a lake in the Qinghu Secret Realm. No spirit beast dared to approach that lake, seemingly afraid of the pressure there."
Later, I stumbled upon that place by accident and discovered that the oppressive aura only targeted evil spirit beasts and demon beasts. When I reached the lake, I saw Wanwan swimming in the lake... well, I mean, in the water. That's how I met her. She was alone by the lake, and there was no trace of dragons around her.
