Ling Xiao did not hide anything and directly stated his name.

"Ling Xiao... you're quite clever, you understand immediately and even know how to name yourself." Upon hearing this, Bixiao immediately smiled and looked at her sister, signaling everyone to laugh together and congratulate their fellow Daoist.

Yun Xiao and Qiong Xiao were initially suspicious, then shocked. "Ling Xiao... isn't that the island lord's name?"

"Ah? Right! Fellow Daoist, this name isn't very auspicious. If that great god finds out, it could lead to annihilation."

Bixiao immediately realized what was happening, put her finger to her lips, and made a shushing gesture.

"The names of beings like that should not be mentioned lightly!"

"I..." Ling Xiao was speechless, shrugged, and started selling.

That's interesting, so very interesting.

He offered no explanation, bypassed the Three Xiao Sisters, and continued to plunder rare and precious treasures.

"Hey! Fellow Daoist, this belongs to that island lord. You'd better not touch it. If he finds out, you'll be in trouble."

Seeing Ling Xiao collecting rare and precious materials as if no one else was around, Qiong Xiao couldn't help but speak up.

"It's alright. Such a powerful being must be magnanimous and won't hold it against me!" Ling Xiao said with a smile, taking the opportunity to boast a little.

"Fellow Daoist, I think it's best to tone it down a bit. After all, this is someone else's territory!" Yun Xiao said softly, his voice clear and cold, with a hint of dissatisfaction.

In her opinion, this newly transformed fellow cultivator was too ignorant and even somewhat greedy. It was normal to take a little for cultivation, but his rampant plundering was unacceptable.

They treat this place like their own home.

She found this behavior despicable.

Ling Xiao turned and glanced at the three women, somewhat surprised. He could tell that they were protecting the interests of the "Island Lord".

He's a good comrade.

Just as he was about to say something, the entire island suddenly trembled, with towering waves and boiling seawater, as if some ferocious beast was about to be born.

"What happened!?" The three Three Xiao Sisters' expressions changed slightly, and they looked around with serious eyes, as if facing a formidable enemy.

Then, they saw the seawater outside the island suddenly break open, and a huge dragon head emerged from the water, swallowing and spewing endless seawater against the current, its power awe-inspiring.

"The Dragon Clan!" The Three Xiao Sisters exclaimed in shock. As beings from the Three Immortal Islands, they were naturally familiar with their sea neighbors.

"Could this be the legendary Dragon Clan Chief?"

The Three Xiao Sisters exchanged a glance. From this dragon, they sensed an unparalleled power, a level of strength beyond their imagination, so powerful it was terrifying.

But what happened next shocked them even more, leaving them completely dumbfounded.

The enormous dragon head emerged from the sea, nodded slightly, and respectfully said, "Ao Zhan greets Fellow Ling Xiao!"

"Fellow Daoist Ling Xiao..."

The Three Xiao Sisters all turned their gazes to Ling Xiao simultaneously, and they felt a chill run down their spines.

"What he just said was true... He really is Ling Xiao, that legendary being!?"

At this moment, Ling Xiao calmly put away the elixir in his hand and said with a faint smile, "Long time no see. You did a good job. During my absence, the Three Immortal Islands were not disturbed."

It wasn't that he was intentionally showing off; it was just that the Dragon Clan had no prestige or goodwill in front of him.

"Tens of thousands of years have passed, and you have become even more unfathomable, fellow Daoist."

At this moment, another voice rang out, ancient and grand. Only then did the Three Xiao Sisters realize that there was another figure standing on the head of the dragon.

He appeared hunched and old, but the invisible power he exuded was even stronger than Ao Zhan's.

Putting everything else aside, the fact that someone can stand above the Dragon Clan Chief speaks volumes about their status.

"Likewise, you seem to have improved as well." Ling Xiao gave the Old Dragon a deep, meaningful look.

Compared to the last time, the Old Dragon looked much older, but its internal power was also much stronger, indicating that the Old Dragon had made considerable progress over the past tens of thousands of years.

"What a cunning old fox, deliberately hiding his true abilities..."

If it were someone else, they would really have a hard time noticing this, and might be deceived by the Old Dragon's appearance.

However, there is nowhere to hide from him, and no secrets to be kept.

Old Dragon's gaze shifted slightly, then vanished in an instant. Without changing his expression, he chuckled and said, "Ling Xiao Daoist Lingxiao, you flatter me. I'm getting old; this is just a final burst of energy before death. I'm afraid I won't be able to hold on much longer."

On the surface, he appeared as calm as a rock, but inside he was somewhat surprised.

What he just said wasn't just polite talk. Compared to last time, Ling Xiao felt even more unfathomable to him; they were completely different people.

If he could still fight that clone last time, he wouldn't even have the will to fight now.

Because it's simply impossible to win.

Having lived this long, I still have this much insight; I'm very shrewd and can see the situation clearly, knowing my own limitations.

Over the past tens of thousands of years, countless descendants of the Dragon Clan have attempted to land on the Three Immortal Islands to plunder treasures, but he has strictly forbidden them from doing so.

In retrospect, it was a wise decision. If that had been done, the East Sea would have inevitably changed colors again.

Upon hearing this, Ling Xiao said calmly, "If you've come here to claim credit, then you can leave. I'm very satisfied with your Dragon Clan helping me protect the Three Immortal Islands."

"Not at all, not at all, Fellow Daoist Ling Xiao, you're too kind. We're neighbors, it's just what I should do."

"Over the years, we've only helped you repel a few dozen waves of invaders, but they were just small fry, not worth mentioning."

"Right, Ao Zhan?"

As Old Dragon finished speaking, he lightly stomped his foot, causing Ao Zhan beneath him to shudder.

"Yes, yes, I did it myself. If the clan elders hadn't stopped me, I could have stormed all the way to their hometown!"

"I, Ao Zhan, will never allow anyone to touch Fellow Ling Xiao Lingxiao's possessions!"

The enormous dragon head kept nodding, causing the sea to rise and fall, with towering waves crashing against the island.

This scene left the Three Xiao Sisters dumbfounded. Was this still the Dragon Clan Chief who commanded the endless seas?

Why are you acting like an idiot?

And the Old Dragon standing above him, whose status was clearly higher than Ao Zhan's, even managed to detect a hint of flattery in his words.

This is simply incomparable to the Dragon Clan that once dominated the world.

Rumors say that Ling Xiao, the master of the Immortal Island, is incredibly powerful, but now it seems that reality is even more unbelievable than the rumors suggest.

The fact that the Dragon Clan Chief and the Old Dragon were so respectful and obsequious was enough to prove just how terrifying Ling Xiao was.

"Just say what you need to say, or go ahead if you don't." Ling Xiao was also getting a little tired of these two guys' attentiveness.

A perfectly good dragon has been turned into something like a sly snake.

It shattered the image of power he held in his mind.

Upon hearing this, Old Dragon's eyes lit up, and he forced a less-than-pleasing smile onto his old face.

"Actually, it's nothing much, I just wanted to invite Fellow Ling Xiao Lingxiao to visit my Dragon Palace."

He was very sincere, which was also the purpose of his visit: to get closer to Ling Xiao and gain his favor with the Dragon Clan.
