Chapter 14 Dinghai Pearl

  Those eyes were full of curiosity.

  Her eyes locked onto Li Qingyun in front of her, sizing him up from head to toe.

  Then.

  A silver-white light appeared.

  The enormous body of the White Dragon gradually shrunk smaller and finally transformed into a woman in palace attire sitting cross-legged at the center of the formation amidst a burst of light.

  "How interesting! How interesting!"

  The white dragon transformed into a palace-dressed woman, although she was dressed as a court lady, but her demeanor and behavior seemed like an unmarried young girl, with three points of playfulness and one thread of willfulness. She played with a large night pearl in her hand, tilted her head to observe Li Qingyun in front of her, and said slowly: "When can humans also cultivate the law of my dragon clan?"

  "The person who taught you the Dragon Clan's cultivation method is truly a genius!"

  "Rather reminiscent of my own style."

  That's it.

  The woman in the palace attire had a self-satisfied look on her face, and her eyes inadvertently swept over Li Qingyun's finger, where an inconspicuous ring was worn. A hint of a smile played on her lips as she continued, "However, your cultivation is also rather too low, isn't it?"

  "Look at you, able to cultivate the True Dragon Body to the first realm boundary. Logically speaking, you should have entered the Golden Elixir period long ago."

  "Could it be that you have a Dragon Ball inside your body?"

  The woman in palace attire seemed quite curious, and with a swift motion of her hand, she reached out to grab Li Qingyun, wanting to take a closer look at him.

  Clang!

  An invisible sword was drawn with a ringing sound.

  Li Qingyun stood still on the spot, and the surrounding water flow seemed to be cut off by a sharp sword, cutting out a visible break in the current.

  "Huh?"

  "What a powerful sword intent!"

  The woman in palace attire had a look of surprise on her face, and she couldn't see through Li Qingyun either.

  With her cultivation, she could naturally see that Li Qingyun only had the tenth layer of Qi Refining stage, but the actual power displayed was such that even a Golden Dan stage True Person might not be able to match. Someone who could casually cut off her water control technique, there weren't many in this world, yet right before her eyes appeared one, and it was just a Qi Refining stage cultivator.

  The palace-dressed woman had a faint, inexplicable smile at the corner of her mouth, but she withdrew her jade palm.

  "Little guy."

  She beckoned Li Qingyun over with a smile, her face radiant, and said softly: "Come here, let sister take a good look at you."

  Isn't it strange?

  Li Qingyun was filled with doubts, for the white dragon transformed into a palace-dressed woman seemed to know him.

  Not only is there no hostility, but also a few points of intimacy.

  But no matter how he recalled, he couldn't remember ever meeting such a person.

  Could it be because I cultivated the Dragon Clan's law?

  Rumble.

  Just as Li Qingyun was hesitating whether to go or not, a powerful and overbearing force suddenly broke through the underwater maze, and then a young man with a jade crown on his head and wearing a dragon robe appeared in the middle of the formation. His whole body was shrouded in an inexplicable majesty, with a pair of golden pupils that seemed to make the entire ocean submit to his feet, and just one glance made people feel intimidated.

  "Awesome!"

  The woman in the palace dress looked at the young man who suddenly appeared, her face changed slightly, and then her eyes were cold, smiling brightly: "I didn't expect you to catch up so quickly."

  "Sister-in-law is laughing."

  The young man in the dragon robe suddenly appeared, adjusted his clothes and hat, and respectfully saluted: "Now that the Dragon Clan is in internal and external troubles, if I don't find my sister-in-law to retrieve the Dinghai Pearl, how can I rest assured to return to the Crystal Palace?"

  "Is it the Pearl of the Orient?"

  The woman in palace attire didn't bother with Li Qingyun anymore, and the young man in dragon robe seemed to be completely ignoring him as well.

  Her eyes were cold and stern, but her delicate face still wore a gentle smile, and she said softly: "Oh dear! I seem to have forgotten where I put the Dinghai Pearl too!"

  "What's to be done now?"

  The young man in the dragon robe didn't seem to care, he just took a step forward, and immediately the entire South Sea was shaken. A massive water spirit power gathered, sealing the entire maze within it.

  Li Qingyun's face changed color, and the woman in palace attire also showed a hint of panic.

  The young man in the dragon robe raised his head, his golden pupils gazing at the palace-dressed woman in front of him, and slowly said: "Sister-in-law, don't make it difficult for me! If sister-in-law doesn't hand it over, then Rong Ao Guang will be unreasonable."

  "Tsk tsk."

  The woman in the palace dress had a hint of sarcastic smile at the corner of her mouth, and slowly said: "Can't bear to reveal your true face after all?"

  "Isn't it difficult for you to learn from Qin Youwang's example of killing his brother and humiliating his sister-in-law?"

  The young man in the dragon robe remained unmoved, his face still very calm, and said lightly: "Sister is joking."

  "Brother is fallen under the heavenly calamity!"

  "What does it have to do with me?"

  Moreover, Ao Guang has always been very respectful to his sister-in-law.

  The woman in palace attire sneered and said sarcastically: "I've heard that you call yourself Dragon Lord in front of the ministers, aren't you already thinking of dominating the four seas?"

  "With great respect."

  "Hehe."

  "Are you still going to say you've never been in your brother's bedroom?"

  The young man in the dragon robe's expression finally changed, but soon calmed down. He said slowly: "If sister is willing to hand over the Dinghai Pearl, the master of the East Palace will still be none other than sister."

  "Tsk tsk."

  The woman in the palace dress had an expression that seemed like a smile but wasn't, and she said with relish: "Even if it's such a shameless thing to say, you can still say it so righteously!"

  "Awesome! Awesome!"

  "Never thought we all underestimated you."

  The young man in the dragon robe seemed to be in no hurry, as if everything was under his control. He calmly said, "Sister-in-law, it's better to hand over the Dinghai Pearl. Otherwise, Ao Guang can only find it on your body himself."

  The woman in palace attire still had a bright smile on her face, seemingly carefree, but Li Qingyun could sense her tension from the tight grip of her hand.

  "Even if you get the Dinghai Pearl, what can you do with it?"

  The woman in palace attire raised her head and gazed towards the far north, murmuring: "It won't be long before that big fish returns from the North Sea."

  "That was the day when disaster befell my Dragon Clan!"

  The young man in the dragon robe also changed his complexion slightly, but immediately said: "As long as Sister gives me the Dinghai Pearl, I naturally have a way to deal with it!"

  "Heh heh!"

  "What a big tone!"

  The woman in palace attire suddenly burst into a charming smile, her face flushed with excitement, and then coldly said: "Even if your brother were in his prime, he wouldn't dare say he could stop it!"

  "Don't even mention you!"

  The young man in the dragon robe also seemed to have a hint of anger, coldly snorting: "Sister-in-law, don't drag out the time anymore. Just hand over the Dinghai Pearl quickly."

  "No one can save you in this South China Sea!"

  The young man in the dragon robe's words had just fallen.

  The seawater in the entire maze began to rotate wildly, and then a round object fell from the sky. It was a bald-headed, big-bellied, and round-bodied fat man wearing a tattered Taoist robe, looking extremely comical.

  "Tsk tsk!"

  That fat Taoist snorted, looking at the dragon-robed youth with a slanted gaze: "Who says there's no one in the South Sea who can deal with this little lecherous dragon?"

  "Frog Immortal?!!"

  The young man in the dragon robe suddenly changed his face and became vigilant, saying in a condensed voice: "Shouldn't you have ascended long ago?"

  Yes.

  The fat Daoist smiled wryly and patted his own belly, sighing: "I really should have ascended long ago."

  "But unexpectedly encountered a fox spirit!"

  "That sly fox is really beautiful!"

  "It's utterly despicable!"

  Fat Daoist spread out his palm and shook his head helplessly, saying: "In the end. I was delayed like this."

  "We can only wait another thousand years then."

  Nine-tailed Fox Spirit?

  The young man in the dragon robe looked very ugly and seemed to be quite afraid of the fat Taoist priest in front of him.

  The woman in the palace dress, however, was delighted and curtsied to the fat Taoist priest with a smile, saying in a soft and gentle voice, "Brother..."

  "Alright, alright!"

  Fat Daoist suddenly sprang up and waved his hand repeatedly: "Don't call me soul anymore!"

  "I knew it, every time you look for me to help, nothing good comes out of it!"

  The palace-dressed woman didn't take it to heart, and smiled brightly, winking her eyes: "But Master has gone up to heaven. If there are bad people who want to bully me, who can I find for help besides my master's brother?"

  At this point, a hint of tears appeared in the corner of the woman's eyes.

  Li Qingyun's expression was stiff.

  Because he found himself all along to be an outsider, a thorough and complete bystander.

  The acting skills of the women in cheongsam.

  Hmph.

  Pffft!

  How did I unintentionally use her tone of speaking?
