Dragon Girl's eyes?
Others might have been stunned for a while before they realized what was happening, but Ao Zhen was the first to react.
Of course she knew the origin of this eyeball, because she was the one who imprisoned its owner back then!
"It's been a long time, Sister Wang."
The voice was very gentle, just like that soft voice from many years ago. In the eyes of the world, the Dragon Girl was a fierce creature. Even if she wasn't as brave and skilled in battle as herself, she was still a synonym for someone who was extremely difficult to mess with. She had only ever heard such a voice from this other person.
Ao Zhen peered out from inside the ice, his gaze strange. Yaksha had an excellent sense of smell; how could this guy have managed to sneak in!
How did you get here?
She was in a bad mood facing her long-lost sister, because she knew very well that her sister had no good feelings towards the Dragon Palace, and that the one who took her away back then was now the Dragon Palace's mortal enemy.
The thought that the other person had also gotten involved made Ao Zhen feel even more gloomy.
That Ancient Insect was a wolf, and the one behind his sister was a tiger and leopard. Although they sounded like they would be prey for the dragons, that wasn't the case at all.
"I have come with the help of a master." The Dragon Girl's voice remained gentle.
"A master?" Ao Zhen calmed down and looked closely. He immediately realized what was going on: there was a faint mist around the eyes.
How could a mist be seeping in from ten thousand feet below the seabed, inside this deep-sea Dragon Palace?
The key point is that no one around, including the incredibly perceptive Yaksha, noticed it, which shows how magical the fog is.
" Nine Heavens Mirror Valley?"
Ao Zhen was indeed knowledgeable and guessed it instantly, but he was still amazed. The Nine Heavens Mirror Valley had incredibly magical effects and was the number one magic array in the East Sea. When the Ancient Insect invaded, the four seas reached a consensus to temporarily hand over the inheritance to the woman who broke into the palace. She only received a simplified version.
So many years have passed, is that woman still alive?
That shouldn't be the case.
Moreover, she had never heard of the Nine Heavens Mirror Valley having such an infiltration function, which clearly meant that a master had remodeled the Nine Heavens Mirror Valley.
Who's backing this guy who can transform the Nine Heavens Mirror Valley?
"Your mother treated you like that, she even gouged out your eyes, and you still serve her?"
"Elder sister, there's no need to test me." The dragon girl's voice was indifferent. "I am neglected in the Dragon Palace, but at least I have no worries about food and clothing, and I enjoy a life of luxury on a noble basis. My father hates my mother and is cold to me, but I am still of the Dragon King's bloodline, and no one has ever made things difficult for me."
"You still understand after all," Ao Zhen sighed softly.
Back then, my father neglected my younger sister because of his own selfishness, which was opposed by the elders of the Dragon Palace. After all, the dragon bloodline is thin, and every extra one is precious; how could they waste it like this?
Although her father insisted on his own way, her younger sister's treatment was still guaranteed. She received high-quality food and high-grade Baiyu, and her growth was never lacking. After all, the dragon bloodline was precious. Many people ridiculed her birth, but it must be said that the Dragon Palace did not owe her anything.
On the contrary, the mother who lured her out is a different story. Look at her current state, a world apart from the pampered princess she once was!
Who's behind you now?
"A human being."
"A human?" Ao Zhen's eyelids twitched. Could it really be that woman?
"I was originally being held captive here by two ancient sorcerers under my mother's command, who had my eyeballs hidden inside. I thought I would never escape, but he saved me at the crucial moment. After that..."
"Did he kill the Third Prince?"
"Yes"
Ao Zhen's face was gloomy. She had never liked her self-righteous younger brother, especially his plan to secretly kill the other Dragon Palace disciples. She was the last to receive the news and didn't have time to stop him after learning about the situation.
But there was nothing he could do; the Dragon Palace had already closed its hibernation mode, so what could he do to stop it?
Ao Xin is too self-important. At such a young age, his ambition is extraordinarily large. He even has the appetite to become the ruler of the four seas. He is not afraid of overextending himself. The key point is that this plan has even received the support of his father.
Father is getting more and more senile as he gets older.
However, no matter what, he was still his own blood relative, and hearing that he had died at the hands of a human, he was naturally not in a good mood.
"Are there really people like this in the world? In recent years, the human race has truly produced a great number of talented individuals!" Ao Zhen said through gritted teeth.
"The things my brother designed back then are the very things that have put the Dragon Palace in such a precarious state now." The Dragon Maiden showed no pity for her brother, coldly stating, "Whether it's the uncontrollable Heavenly Ghost Octopus or the Ancient Insect that invaded this place and nearly destroyed the Dragon Palace, they were all my brother's doing. If it weren't for his self-righteous ambitions, how could the Dragon Palace be in this state?"
Ao Zhen fell silent upon hearing this. Although it was somewhat hindsight, the facts were indeed true. If it weren't for the wicked things her stupid younger brother had done, the Dragon Palace might not have had to face this situation!
"Tell me. What does she want me to do?"
" Purple Fetus!"
"Ha, I knew it!" Ao Zhen sneered. "What's the difference between him and your mother?"
"There's a difference," the Dragon Girl said coldly. "He's not my mother; she's just using our relationship."
Ao Zhen: "."
Looking at the coldness in her younger sister's eyes, a rare hint of tenderness flashed in Ao Zhen's eyes. "What did he promise you?"
"Help me."
"You believe him?"
"I can only trust him, and only by saving my body can he conceive the Purple Fetus."
"Your body is with your mother. Even if he gets the Purple Fetus now, it's useless, isn't it? Shouldn't we be thinking about how to escape this calamity first?" Ao Xin looked up. " That Heavenly Ghost Octopus is already so large. If it swallows ten thousand dragons outside, the Dragon Palace will be finished, and the entire human race will be doomed!"
"He brought the Golden Crow Fire Jade."
" Golden Crow Fire?" Ao Zhen. The Heavenly Ghost Octopus feared flames, but the problem was that it was difficult to gather a large amount of fire element to kill it in the sea, but the Golden Crow Flame was different.
But then he frowned and said, "But we don't have enough energy to unleash it, do we? That kid's methods are impressive, but you said it yourself, he's only at the Mortal Realm!"
" Purple Fetus," the dragon girl whispered, "He said that if my Purple Fetus is preserved, it must be soaked in a jade solution, and that stuff is the best oil!"
"This guy really knows a lot."
Jade Solution, the essence of Baiyu, is used in the secret techniques of the Dragon Clan. Every Dragon Palace has it; it is a top-tier secret resource, usually controlled by the Dragon King himself. As Chen Qing said, to preserve the essence of the Purple Fetus, it must be soaked in Jade Solution.
"That is indeed a method, but..."
"But what?"
"My father is there too!"
"So what?" the Dragon Girl said coldly.
If the Dragon King were to intervene now, would the West Sea Dragon Palace still be in its current state?
In this situation, neither the Dragon King nor the Dragon Girl are meat on someone else's chopping board!
"The mechanisms at Father's place are not easy to open, and why should I agree?" Ao Zhen looked at the other person. "What promises can he give me?"
This time, the dragon girl didn't speak, but instead met his eyes. The unique bloodline connection of the dragon race allowed the two to form a spiritual world without any barriers.
There, Ao Zhen saw what her sister looked like hundreds of thousands of years ago. She was still the same, dressed in blue, with a solitary air, looking like an unapproachable ice person. Beside her was a face she had never seen before.
"Junior Chen Qing greets Princess Ao Zhen."
"Did you kill Ao Xin?" Ao Zhen squinted.
"Yes," Chen Qing replied honestly, "It was a life-or-death situation, and I was lucky enough to win!"
Ao Zhen's face twitched. This was the first time she'd encountered such an answer. What did it mean? Was he going to kill his own brother and then flaunt it in front of her?
Seeing the other party's unfriendly expression, Chen Qing sighed and said, "Your Highness should also be aware of your younger brother's ambition. If he succeeds, our human race will be doomed."
"So that means if I cooperate with you, there is hope for your human race?"
"Yes!" Chen Qing nodded.
"How do we cooperate?" Ao Zhen sneered, "Don't bring up any magical contracts. I just heard how you're going to kill those ancient sorcerers."
Although the idea of External Incarnation appearing on a mortal was unbelievable to her, she still refused to believe in forming any kind of warlock contract with the other party.
"I have a way to convince Your Highness of our cooperation, and you will surely sense it, but the prerequisite is whether you can accept a certain aspect."
"What?"
"Is Ao Zhen Highness Aozhen willing to kill the Dragon King for the sake of the Dragon Palace's survival?"
Ao Zhen: "!!"
