After a moment's thought, the Dragon Emperor came back to himself and muttered under his breath:
"Heavenly Court... is nothing to worry about!"
The Dragon Emperor knew of Emperor Venerate, the ruler of Heavenly Court. His cultivation was only at the Sub-Saint level.
Now, his own strength had recovered to the Primordial Grand Unity realm, so he naturally had nothing to fear.
What worried the Dragon Emperor, however, was Qin Mu, who stood behind Emperor Venerate.
After all, Qin Mu was renowned throughout the Primordial Wilderness.
Besides, he was Saint Tongtian's eldest disciple, and the master and disciple had an excellent relationship!
When Ao Run heard what the Dragon Emperor said, she furrowed her brows and hurriedly said:
"Lord Dragon Emperor!"
"Emperor Venerate may not be worth worrying about, but the one behind him..."
Before Ao Run could finish, the Dragon Emperor cut her off:
"Enough."
"I already know about this."
"When the time comes, I will protect the Western Sea myself. You can put your mind at ease!"
Hearing the Dragon Emperor's words, Ao Run paused in surprise. She said no more, her heart filled with bitter helplessness.
If not for the Dragon Emperor, the Four Seas Dragon Clan would still have had a decent relationship with Qin Mu.
Ao Run in particular had formed a bond with Qin Mu long ago.
Back then, Qin Mu had found a treasure in the Western Sea's vault. Since he didn't want to take it without giving anything in return, he had given Ao Run a Great Principle Golden Immortal pill.
Later, after the Four Seas Dragon Kings discussed it, Ao Guang had taken and refined the pill, achieving the Great Principle Golden Immortal realm.
Ao Run greatly admired Qin Mu, and had even felt an inexplicable affection for him deep down.
