Just as Liu Wenjun was searching for Mu Qingling's figure, a voice rang out behind him. When Liu Wenjun turned around, he found an additional figure standing there.
"Greetings, Senior!"
"Senior, are you saying Little Master ran off on her own? Then why didn't you stop her?"
Liu Wenjun looked at the figure before him helplessly. He had been "invited" back from the Immortal Spirit Realm by Mu Feiyang, so naturally he knew this courtyard was anything but ordinary.
It could be said that there was not a single one here he could afford to offend, because whether it was the trees, chickens, dogs, or fish in the courtyard, there was not one he could defeat.
The old man before him was even more extraordinary, the most powerful existence in this courtyard. Still, Liu Wenjun complained somewhat resentfully.
These people's cultivation was so high. They clearly knew Little Master had secretly run away, yet they had not stopped her. If anything happened to Little Master, how was he supposed to explain it to his master?
"Do you think we didn't want to stop Little Master? But do you think it was appropriate for us to do so? Isn't it because you're useless? Little Master drugged you, and you didn't even know it."
As soon as Liu Wenjun finished speaking, another fiery-red figure appeared and gave him a thorough dressing-down.
If he had not told Little Master about those sleeping drugs himself, Little Master would not have known about them at all. What left them most speechless was that he had been drugged without even realizing it, yet he still had the nerve to call himself a prophet.
After being rebuked, Liu Wenjun did not dare make a sound. Who could have known that girl was so cunning? She had actually drugged him with the colorless, odorless Purple Blood Spirit Melting Flower.
Moreover, Liu Wenjun guessed that the girl had used quite a large dose. Otherwise, he could not possibly have been unconscious for so long. After all, he was an Immortal Empress!
"Seniors, what should I do now? Are we really just going to let Little Master remain outside like this?"
"What else can you do? Never mind whether you can find Little Master—if you do find her, do you think she'll come back with you?"
"So, just stay here peacefully and wait for Master to come out of seclusion!"
"Sigh! It looks like this is the only way."
Liu Wenjun was deeply helpless. Still, what reassured him somewhat was that Big Black Dog was following Little Master. At the very least, she would not be in any danger. Perhaps Little Master had only gone out for a stroll and would return soon.
Feeling rather bitter, Liu Wenjun returned to his room. Since he could not go out to search for Little Master, he could only wait here idly.

┗|`O′|┛Awoo~~!
Suddenly, two resounding dragon roars rang out, startling Zhao Shanshan and Medicine Spirit awake from their cultivation. The two hurried out of the ship's cabin and looked toward the source of the roars.
Sure enough, two enormous figures had appeared in the sky above the Dragon Chasing Sea ten li away. They were the legendary Earth Azure Dragons.
"The legendary Earth Azure Dragons truly exist. And with this kind of pressure, they are not level-nine demon beasts at all, but level-ten demon beasts."
Watching the two Earth Azure Dragons chase each other above the sea and sensing that violent aura, Medicine Spirit said with trepidation.
He had only heard of them before; this was his first time seeing Earth Azure Dragons. Moreover, Medicine Spirit discovered that the two Earth Azure Dragons were not level-nine demon beasts at all, but terrifying level-ten demon beasts.
If the rumors were not wrong, then the two Earth Azure Dragons must have only recently broken through. Otherwise, they could not possess such violent pressure.
"Senior, should we move farther away?"
Zhao Shanshan, whose face had already turned pale, asked. The two Earth Azure Dragons were so terrifying—what if they attacked them?
Ten li was neither far nor near. If the two Earth Azure Dragons truly were level-ten demon beasts, they would not even have time to flee across such a distance.
"Probably not!"
"I've never heard of Earth Azure Dragons leaving the Dragon Chasing Sea, nor have I heard of them taking the initiative to attack humans. As long as we don't enter the sea, we should be safe."
Although Earth Azure Dragons lived here, as long as no one appeared in the sea at night, there had never been any reports of Earth Azure Dragons attacking humans.
"Hm?"
Just as Medicine Spirit finished speaking, a hair-raising sensation suddenly arose, as though some great terror had fixed its gaze upon them.
Medicine Spirit raised his head with difficulty and looked toward the sea. He saw two pairs of enormous dragon eyes staring fixedly in their direction, and his heartbeat seemed to skip half a beat.
Hadn't they said nothing would happen as long as they did not enter the sea? Why had they still attracted the Earth Azure Dragons' attention? Moreover, though he did not know whether it was an illusion, Medicine Spirit saw greed in those two pairs of dragon eyes.
"Get back inside. We're leaving this place."
Medicine Spirit could not help cursing the rumors for being deadly misleading. He hurriedly called Zhao Shanshan into the ark, preparing to flee.
"Caw!"
Medicine Spirit had only turned around and taken two steps when he froze in place, because a pair of enormous dragon eyes had appeared directly before him.
"Se... Senior, do you... do you need anything?"
An Earth Azure Dragon had appeared on each side of the ark. They were precisely the two that had just been over the sea, yet they had suddenly appeared here in an instant.
Medicine Spirit asked with a pale face, his speech stammering. Zhao Shanshan was in an even worse state—she had already fainted onto the ark the moment the Earth Azure Dragons appeared.
"What rich Immortal Spirit blood and qi. Boy, this has nothing to do with you anymore. You may leave."
"Y-yes, I'll leave right away."
Trembling, Medicine Spirit picked Zhao Shanshan up and was about to enter the ark, intending to pilot it away. But clearly, he had thought too much.
"Get lost, now. Everything on this ark belongs to us."
"This...!"
There was still someone inside whose thigh he wanted to cling to. He was certainly reluctant to abandon Mu Qingling, but he could not deal with the two level-ten demon beasts before him either. For a moment, Medicine Spirit did not know what to do.
"You're so noisy! You woke Ling'er up."
Just as Medicine Spirit was at a loss, Mu Qingling walked out of the ark, rubbing her eyes and yawning.
"There really is Immortal Spirit blood and qi here. Heaven is helping us!"
Looking at the little girl who had come out, one of the Earth Azure Dragons said excitedly. It had only been somewhat suspicious before, but now it could be certain.
Even they had not expected to encounter a human carrying Immortal Spirit blood here. If they could devour her, their bloodlines would undergo a complete evolution.
Though they could not evolve into Tian Long bloodlines, as long as they could evolve into Immortal Spirit bloodlines, their lives would hold limitless possibilities.
"Ah! Is this dragon meat?"
Only now did the little girl notice that two giant dragons had appeared here. She immediately perked up. With dragons this huge, how long would it take to eat them all?
"Old Master, did you catch these two dragons and bring them here as meat for me? What happened to Big Sister? Old Master, why are you carrying Big Sister?"
Mu Qingling looked at Medicine Spirit excitedly, but when she saw him holding Zhao Shanshan, she became puzzled again.
Hadn't Teacher said that men and women should not touch each other?
