Lately, Xia Canghai had constantly felt restless, as if something bad was about to happen.

He was a Second Rank Great Sage. When one's heavenly secrets stirred, such a feeling meant that, if nothing unexpected happened, something unexpected was indeed about to happen.

But where would the trouble come from?

Xia Canghai sat upright in the water palace at the bottom of Jiayi River, racking his brains without finding an answer.

He had originally belonged to the Iron-backed Shrimp clan of the sea. Many years ago, when the Azure Dragon lineage surrounded and attacked Cloud Dragon Saint King Yun Aotian, he had been nothing more than a minor Fifth Rank figure.

But luck was not something one could block.

He had not dared approach the battlefield at all. He had merely sensed the violent fluctuations of power in the sea and been left trembling with fear.

Seven Dragon Marquises of the Heavenly Dragon Realm had surrounded and killed Yun Aotian, yet Yun Aotian had still counter-killed four of them before departing with his sleeves flung wide.

Although members of the Azure Dragon lineage had later come to clean up the battlefield, he had nevertheless accidentally found a drop of True Dragon Essence Blood left behind by a slain Great Dragon Marquis of the Azure Dragon lineage.

It was precisely by relying on that drop of blood that Xia Canghai had broken through the limits of his bloodline and cultivated to his current level.

Whenever he thought of this, Xia Canghai felt boundless admiration for Yun Aotian.

Thus, many years later, when he heard the news of Yun Aotian's death, he had been deeply saddened. He had caused heavy rain to fall along both banks of Jiayi River for three days and three nights as a gesture of mourning.
