Primordial World: Marrying the Eldest Princess, the Jade Emperor Has Gone Mad!

The Fish Head River God took the items from the treasury of his cave dwelling, ignoring the ruined River God's mansion.

Transforming into his true form as a Black Catfish, he gave his tail a flick and headed upstream in the Clear Water River.

Soon, a luxurious underwater Dragon Palace appeared before the Black Catfish.

"Dragon King, your humble servant Black Catfish greets you!"

Chapter 21: Wei Zheng is Humiliated, the Princess Returns!

"Hmm? It's Little Black Catfish, what brings you to the Clear Water Dragon Palace?"

Within the Clear Water River Dragon Palace, a black Flood Dragon, a hundred zhang long, opened its eyes.

The Flood Dragon's body trembled, causing the entire Clear Water Dragon Palace to shake.

Its scarlet beast eyes, the size of stone lions, suddenly opened.

Clam Maidens and Crab Demons bustled back and forth in the Dragon Palace, preparing something.

Suddenly, a dragon whisker extended from the Dragon Palace, instantly pulling the Black Catfish River God inside.

By the time the Black Catfish regained his senses, a massive, ferocious Flood Dragon head appeared before him.

Shrimp Soldiers and Crab Generals rushed over, holding plates.

The plates were filled with various fish and aquatic products, which were poured into the Flood Dragon's huge mouth.

"Glug glug, more river delicacies, the taste is truly awful.

The human dynasties change too quickly; nowadays, I can't even eat a person!"

The black Flood Dragon grumbled discontentedly, gesturing for the Shrimp Soldiers and Crab Generals to take the plates away.

He then shook his body, transforming into a Flood Dragon with a human-like upper body, and looked at the Black Catfish River God.

"Black Catfish, it's not time for the Clear Water River Gathering yet, is it? What brings you here?"

The black Flood Dragon had dominated Clear Water River for hundreds of years. Every three years, he would convene the Clear Water River Gathering.

In reality, it was a day for the river demons and water monsters who made a living in Clear Water River to come and pay tribute to the black Flood Dragon. They could also conduct some transactions among themselves.

And the Black Catfish River God was merely a River Patrol General appointed by the black Flood Dragon for the entire Clear Water River.

"Dragon King, I've come to you today seeking justice!

I was patrolling near Zhao Family Village when the villagers there, being unruly and willful, not only destroyed my water mansion but also killed my patrol soldiers."

"Oh? Such insolence from mere villagers?"

The black Flood Dragon looked at the Black Catfish suspiciously, his eyes filled with disbelief.

He had some impression of Zhao Family Village, mainly because a young fellow from there had accidentally obtained a broken Earth God's decree.

It might have been troublesome for the Black Catfish, but for him, it was nothing. At most, he was curious that a mortal had actually received recognition from an Earth God's decree.

However, the position of Earth God had its limits. Not to mention it was a broken decree. As long as the Black Catfish didn't go ashore and enter the vicinity of the Zhao Family Village's Earth God temple, he didn't fear that old geezer at all.

Seeing the black Flood Dragon's doubtful gaze, it was as if he was about to point at the Black Catfish's nose and call him useless.

"Dragon King, I wouldn't want to trouble you.

The main reason is that those unruly villagers from Zhao Family Village invited two female Immortals from somewhere. With a single Flying Sword strike, my subordinate generals were instantly killed! That Flying Sword flashed with red light and emanated a chilling gleam. Just a glance at it made my liver and gall tremble!"

The Black Catfish cried out dramatically, which piqued the black Flood Dragon's interest. Just the aura emanating from it made the Black Catfish, an Earth Immortal water demon, feel fear. It was evident that this treasure was no ordinary item.

However, the black Flood Dragon did not notice the dark, sinister look emanating from the Black Catfish's lowered head.

Let them fight, let them fight! Once I obtain the Incense and Fire from Zhao Family Village, all of this will be mine in the future!

"You go back first. Once I investigate the truth, I will bring you justice!"

Although the black Flood Dragon was tempted by the treasure, he also knew that there were countless powerful beings in the Primordial World. If he provoked an unwanted force, he, a mere young Flood Dragon, couldn't handle it.

"Dragon King, please rest assured, I know what to do.

This is a small token of my appreciation, please accept it, Dragon King!"

"Mm!"

The black flood dragon nodded faintly, yawned again, and fell into a deep sleep.

In Chang'an, the capital of the Great Tang, a simple two-courtyard residence.

This was the mansion of Wei Zheng, the Remonstrance Officer who was currently making quite a name for himself in court.

Wei Zheng, who was usually incredibly diligent, was uncharacteristically not handling state affairs at this moment.

Instead, he was lost in thought, staring at a letter.

"Master, you've been looking at this letter for almost an hour. Haven't you finished reading it yet?"

Madam Wei entered with a bowl of chicken soup. Seeing Wei Zheng still reading the letter, she chided him playfully.

Only then did Wei Zheng put down the letter, rub his forehead, and reply.

"I finished reading the letter long ago. I noticed this matter a few days ago.

But the trouble is, it's about the origin of this letter!"

Wei Zheng sighed. What did it mean for Heaven to send someone to deliver this letter?

Was it a warning to him to be mindful of his stance?

Or was it a warning to the newly enthroned Son of Heaven?

After all, the reputation of killing his brother and imprisoning his father was not a good one, neither in Heaven nor on Earth.

The Great Tang was currently facing internal and external troubles, with unending natural disasters.

It was hard to say if this was the Heavenly Emperor's doing.

After all, the Son of Heaven was, in theory, also the Heavenly Emperor's son!

"Then don't hand it in!"

"Not handing it in is definitely not an option. If I expose it, I can control the situation to some extent.

If those from Heaven... those people expose it, then it won't just be an internal matter for the Great Tang!"

Hearing Wei Zheng's words, Madam Wei rolled her eyes and said grumpily.

"Since you have to hand it in either way, why are you still standing there stunned for so long!"

"What do you know, you're just a woman. This matter..."

"Alright, alright. I'm just a little woman, I don't understand your grand principles, and I don't want to understand them!"

Madam Wei put down the soup bowl, turned around, and left.

Wei Zheng was so angry he blew his beard and glared, but he could only continue to scratch his head.

In Zhao Family Village, Clear Water County, a purple figure descended gracefully.

"Eldest Sister, I'm back!"

Chapter Twenty-Two: The Great Sage Cannot Become an Immortal!

Outside Zhao Family Village, four beautiful figures descended gracefully.

"Wow, Seventh Sister, is this the Zhao Family Village you were talking about? It's so lively!"

A fairy maiden in blue looked at the bustling Zhao Family Village, her eyes immediately lighting up.

Seventh Princess Zhang Tianyu also looked bewildered, gazing at the scene before her with a hint of unfamiliarity.
