Longjiang is the largest river among the tens of thousands of miles of rivers and mountains in Dayong Dynasty.
Originating from the Kunlun Mountains in the southwest of Dayong, it is winding and winding, with thousands of rivers converging in the middle. It stretches tens of thousands of miles from east to west and is hundreds of miles wide at its widest point.
most.
Such a large river, with its strong water aura, naturally breeds countless monsters in the water.
There are countless water monsters in the world, but dragons are especially revered.
The same is true for Longjiang.
This largest river in the world has been ruled by the Dragon Clan from the moment it was born, and has been continuous for tens of thousands of years.
Even if the heaven and earth change, the immortals and gods will not emerge. Ao Kun, the Dragon King who commands the Longjiang Shui Tribe, is also one of the few Yuan Shen-level masters in the world.
Longjiang, where it sits, still stands side by side with the Xuanjing Division, the Kunlun Sect, the White Horse Temple, and the Black Heart Demon Sect that was destroyed by Xu Junming.
In particular, the Dragon Palace Fairy Gathering held every sixty years is the top gathering of the spiritual world.
Within one month of the grand event, senior monks from Dayong and overseas will gather.
Everyone exchanges Taoism, exchanges treasures with each other, and improves their merits.
Under such circumstances, almost everyone, regardless of whether they are human beings or demons, flocks to them.
The same is true for this grand gathering of immortals in the Dragon Palace. Months in advance, monks traveling from south to north, from home and abroad, flew towards the Dragon Palace deep in the Longjiang River.
Normally, Ao Kun does not need to come forward when it comes to welcoming people, but those Yuanshen monks with similar cultivation levels to him need him to greet them personally.
Just like this moment.
"Dragon King, come and be safe!"
"Hahaha, you are so polite, Fellow Daoist Ye. Today, you, the leader of the Xuanjing Division, will come to visit, which will make our Longjiang Dragon Palace shine brightly."
"Dragon King, you're welcome."
"please."
"please!"
Under the leadership of the two men, the people who came with the Xuanjing Division filed into the Dragon Palace.
The two parties sat down, and after a brief chat between Ao Kun and Ye Guyun, they were arranged to stay.
In the evening, Ao Kun came to visit again.
But this time, except for Ye Guyun and Ao Kun, there was no one else around.
"Dragon King, has the murderer of the Ninth Prince been caught?"
Ao Kun shook his head.
"This thief is really well hidden. We, the Longjiang Aquatic Tribe, plus the power of the Xuanjing Division, haven't found any clues at all."
Ye Guyun smiled faintly.
"The Dragon King won't doubt that our Xuanjing Division is not doing our best, right?"
"Fellow Daoist Ye, you are overly worried. We, the Longjiang Aquatic Tribe, have also been cooperating with the Xuanjing Division's investigation over the years. The people in your company are not doing their best, and I, of course, know it all."
"But this time, I came to see Fellow Daoist Ye specifically not for this matter, but because I wanted to ask about another matter that I mentioned when I visited Fellow Daoist Ye in Zhongzhou City last time."
Ye Guyun said: "Chongshan Master Xu Junming?"
"Exactly!"
"Didn't I tell the Dragon King last time that Master Xu had agreed to attend this Dragon Palace event?!"
"Having said that, there are only three days left before the grand meeting is held, and I haven't seen him yet. Naturally, I feel a little uneasy."
"The Dragon King is overly worried. Based on my understanding of Zhenren Xu, since he said he would come, he will definitely come back. Dragon King, please wait for the good news."
"In that case, I will listen to Fellow Daoist Ye's insights."
After saying goodbye, Ao Kun said goodbye and left, returning to Chaoyin Pavilion.
This is where he usually works and rests.
"Father!"
The eldest prince Ao Yu came up to greet him.
"Are all the people who sent the invitations here?"
"Except for Master Xu Junming of Chongshan and Master Dingyang of the Kunlun Sect, everyone else has arrived."
Dingyang Zhenren is the master of the Kunlun sect's Yuanshen. He has been in Kunlun for hundreds of years. He has not come to the previous meetings of Longjiang Dragon Palace Immortals. Ao Kun is also surprised that he did not come this time.
"You can tell me to go down and expand the Dragon Palace's welcome team a hundred miles further. As soon as Master Chongshan arrives, I will be notified as soon as possible."
"yes!"
Ao Yu handed over his hand and left.
"You all go down."
The surrounding soldiers and palace maids all turned around and retreated.
With a wave of his hand, driven by his magic power, Chaoyin Pavilion's forbidden method was activated.
Sensing the strange movement behind her, Ao Yu turned around and frowned slightly.
"Father, what are you doing these days?"
Seeing that the date for the Dragon Palace Fairy Meeting is getting closer and closer, Ao Kun, as the master of the Dragon Palace, should make more appearances to show the majesty of the Dragon Palace, and at the same time make friends with practitioners from all walks of life and expand the Dragon Palace's network.
As a result, except for the Xuanjing Secretary Ye Guyun, the elder Xinkong of the White Horse Temple Buddhist Temple, and the two Yuanshen monks who came out to greet him when they arrived, everyone else was recommended to him.
Although Ao Yu has long wanted to take over the power of the Dragon Palace from his father, he has not yet survived the catastrophe and achieved Yuan Shen. In addition to working hard to take care of everything in the Dragon Palace and completing the tasks assigned by his father, he does not dare to have too much power.
More action.
But his father's actions recently have been somewhat abnormal.
In normal times, he would never miss an opportunity like this to show off his power as the Dragon King to high-level monks in the spiritual world.
Just when Ao Yu guessed the reason for Ao Kun's abnormal behavior.
Ao Kun opened a secret training room deep in Chaoyin Pavilion.
There are not many things in the secret room, and the most eye-catching thing is a round brass mirror the size of a basin.
Make quick gestures with your hands and mutter something in your mouth.
"open!"
A ray of light passed through Ao Kun's hands and flew into the mirror.
Soon, the blurred mirror surface was like ripples in the water of a pond.
Gradually, the situation in the mirror became clear.
A tall and thin old monk wearing a bright red cassock, with a bald head and a nine-ringed tin staff in his hand. Although he was smiling, there was a sinister look in his eyes.
"I just asked Ye Guyun, and he denied it. But from the look on his face, I don't think he is faking it."
"Amitabha, the Xuanjing Division has a deep relationship with Xu Junming. The latter also forged a spiritual treasure for Ye Guyun. Plus Xu Junming is very powerful. Unless absolutely necessary, Ye Guyun will not tell you the truth."
"As for the expression, haha, Ye Guyun has been in charge of the Xuanjing Division for many years. He is very cunning and scheming. Finding out the flaws in his expression is probably more difficult than climbing to the sky."
After he finished speaking, the old monk looked at Ao Kun's expression.
"The Dragon King doesn't believe what the old monk says?"
"Of course not!"
"Forget it. If the Dragon King still doesn't believe it, you can ask Xu Junming face to face at the Dragon Palace Immortals Festival. This guy has a high level of cultivation and is quite arrogant. I think if he had done this, he would probably not hide it."
"Of course, if the Dragon King is afraid of Xu Junming's power, there is no need to ask. If you make friends with this person, you might be able to get him to refine a few spiritual treasures for your Dragon Palace."
"It's just a spiritual treasure that we, the Longjiang Water Tribe, don't care about. As for Xu Junming, huh, if my Jiu'er is really killed by him, I will kill him even if I fight for the throne of the Longjiang Water Tribe to pay homage to my son's soul.
