Volume's end: the four seas and eight wildernesses, the Water Race takes its place

Dragon Lord Ji Meng was the first deity created by the Water Mother Primordial Lady.

Although she borrowed the power of the [Dragon Transformation Platform], the Water Mother Primordial Lady did indeed put a lot of effort into Ji Meng.

Compared to the various bizarre dragon sons and grandsons and shrimp soldiers and crab generals that followed, Ji Meng's appearance was a complete copy of Divine Lord Meng Zhang's. Even his ability to Summon Wind and Call Rain, Summon Thunder and Draw Lightning was exactly the same.

Perhaps it is precisely for this reason that the Water Mother Primordial Lady makes no attempt to hide her affection for Ji Meng.

But Ji Meng could not remain that carefree, innocent young dragon forever.

As time went by and he grew, Ji Meng gradually realized that his birth was merely a scheme orchestrated by the Water Mother Primordial Lady. This sense of crisis became a huge boulder weighing on his heart after Ji Meng Dao Proving the [Dragon Lord].

In fact, this can be seen from the Dao Path that Ji Meng proved.

Chi was definitely an ambitious and powerful monarch who refused to be second to anyone.

Even in the era of the Heavenly Emperor's rule, Ji Meng, Dao Proving qualified to compete with his opponent.

Unfortunately, the era in which Chi was born was unfortunate, and the purpose of his birth was not pure.

As a pawn in the game between the Water Mother Primordial Lady and the Dao Ancestor, Ji Meng could easily foresee his ultimate fate without even using his brain.

Ji Meng did not care about his own life or death.

Unlike other Dao Proving One, he didn't even transcend the Long River of Time to leave himself a way out in other dimensions.

Chi entrusted his ambitions and aspirations to his four children, hoping they could survive this game.

For this reason, Ji Meng even disobeyed the orders of the Water Mother Primordial Lady and deliberately provoked the Dao Ancestor.

After all, only when the Dao Ancestor and the Water Mother Primordial Lady were both focused on him could he possibly overlook the four little dragons guarding the gate. Unfortunately, despite all his scheming, Ji Meng ultimately failed to foresee the appearance of the Queen Mother of the West.

So, you didn't kill Ji Meng in the end?

In the mountain god temple of Yunmeng Marsh, Li Boyang was talking to Wangshu through Yinyue.

Behind Wangshu, in the endless starry sky, the shattered Ji Meng transformed into meteorites, traversing the heavens and forming a strange band of stars. "Have you taken pity on me?"

Looking at the same mirror, Xiluo's gaze focused on the strange band of stars.

That strange band of stars orbits around the Great Yin Star, as if the Great Yin Star had gained some smaller satellites.

"Yes, I just feel that Chi still has a reason to live."

Wangshu nodded without changing her expression, not daring to look Xiluo in the eye.

After all, Xiluo's attitude and behavior towards Li Boyang were completely different from her attitude towards others.

"Tsk tsk tsk, so what are your plans for dealing with those little dragons?"

Turning to look at Li Boyang beside her, Xiluo asked with great curiosity.

Since Wangshu wanted to keep the Dragon Lord, Xiluo naturally had no objection; after all, it wasn't like she was the one being the supervisor.

What she's more curious about now is whether Li Boyang foresaw all of this when he asked her to spare the lives of these little dragons.

"The ocean is not land, so it originally didn't have that many intelligent beings and gods."

"Now that the oceans have expanded so much, don't you think those four little dragons are just right to govern the four seas?"

Upon hearing this, Xiluo was only stunned for a moment before she immediately understood.

"You didn't save those dragon sons and grandsons, shrimp soldiers and crab generals created by the Water Mother Primordial Lady, did you?"

Looking at the silent Li Boyang, Xiluo immediately realized that she had hit the nail on the head.

"When are you going to change your overly kind-hearted personality?"

In the present world, in the East Sea.

When Ao Guang emerged from the water, looking completely bewildered, the first thing he saw was a deity with a dragon's head and a human body.

That is none other than the current Lord of the East Sea —Divine Lord Meng Zhang.

In Ao Guang's eyes, Divine Lord Meng Zhang's strength was no greater than that of his father.

But Ji Meng lacked that gentle and refined temperament, which made people believe in him from the bottom of their hearts at first glance.

"You must be Ao Guang?"

Upon hearing Divine Lord Meng Zhang's question, Ao Guang, who had just woken up, immediately raised his head.

Then he saw that behind Divine Lord Meng Zhang, there were many members of the Dragon Race and Water Race.

Besides the Nagas who had already submitted to Divine Lord Meng Zhang, Ao Guang clearly saw many familiar figures among the Dragon Race and Water Race. Upon closer inspection, Ao Guang even spotted the figures of the Joyful Dragon King Nanda and the Wise and Joyful Dragon King Upananda.

Although the two dragon kings looked somewhat disheveled and were bound by chains, they were indeed still alive.

"Yes, I am Ao Guang."

After a brief silence, Ao Guang, having come to terms with reality, nodded.

He finally understood the meaning behind the Dao Ancestor's meaningful glance before he left.

It was that Dao Ancestor who saved him from the clutches of the Queen Mother of the West, and it was also he who threw him into this East Sea.

He was able to be groomed by Ji Meng as his successor.

Ao Guang's wisdom and sense of responsibility are beyond question.

So, without Divine Lord Meng Zhang saying much, he took the initiative to transform into a dragon-headed, human-bodied form and prostrated himself at the other party's feet in an extremely humble manner.

"Don't be so formal, you are..."

"Hmm, you were sent by the Dao Ancestor, so you can just stay by my side."

When the term "Dao Ancestor" was mentioned, Divine Lord Meng Zhang hesitated suspiciously for a moment.

"For the next while, you'll help me appease these new Dragon Race and Water Race!"

"They come from your original world, and it will take them some time to adapt to the environment of the East Sea."

Turning around and pointing to the group of dragon sons and grandsons and shrimp soldiers and crab generals behind him, Divine Lord Meng Zhang paused slightly in his speech.

Don't worry, your three brothers are all fine.

"They went to the West, South, and North Seas respectively, their mission being the same: to help your kind adapt to the environment of this world."

"But there's one thing I must make clear to you beforehand: neither of you are free."

"At the very least, none of you may leave the world without my permission."

Looking at Ao Guang, who still bowed his head in submission, Divine Lord Meng Zhang smiled with a hint of helplessness.

"Alright, I won't say anything more. You'll understand in time."

Just as Divine Lord Meng Zhang was comforting Ao Guang...

Similar situations have occurred in the West, South, and North Seas, the only difference being that the people in charge are different.

Miaoshan of the South Sea accepted the arrangement without the slightest complaint.

Although the gods of the Great Xia in the West Sea had some reservations, they acquiesced under Wu Xian's insistence.

As for the North Sea?

Despite his complaints, Shang Yang immediately took Zhenwu and received the Dragon Race and Water Race members, including Ao Shun. (Monthly vote/Female lead recommendation vote)
