Chapter 277 Kicked the Iron Plate~
out Hao Ren, Zhao Jiayin, and Cao Ronghua.Immediately after, from the opposite side of the dormitory came a deafening noise as Huang Jianfeng and his group emerged with basins, towels, toothpaste, and...Chapter 277: Kicking Against a Solid Wall~
"Old Uncle Zeng came again today to demand people, angrily charging into the Dragon Palace. He forcibly entered despite the resistance from the elders of the West Sea who were imprisoned there. Once their acupoints were unlocked, they charged out together," Elder Lu said over the phone.
Hearing this news, Zhao Guang's face turned a deep shade of purple with anger; Old Uncle Zeng disregarded the Eastern Sea too much by forcibly entering the Dragon Palace!
He didn't know that Old Uncle Zeng had been struck by lightning last night and half of his dragon horn was shaved off. When he thought about how all the high-level experts from the West Sea were being imprisoned in the Eastern Sea, he was almost driven mad with anger. So today, regardless of his status, he rushed into the Dragon Palace of the Eastern Sea to rescue the elders of the West Sea who had been demoted.
As Elder Lu reported this situation to Zhao Guang, Old Uncle Zeng, whose face was filled with killing intent, led the elder from the West Sea whose power had recovered, lowering their altitude and flying towards He Ren's seaside villa.
"A mere mortal also dares to frame our West Sea Dragon Clan!"
Understanding everything through the elder of the West Sea, Old Uncle Zeng decided to personally arrest He Ren's grandmother. Since he couldn't find Zeng Yitao in the Eastern Dragon Palace and dared not stay there for too long, he left hurriedly.
After flying out of the sea surface, after much consideration, he felt that where one fell, they should get back up there; to arrest He Ren's relatives as an exchange for Zeng Yitao was a simple and feasible solution.
Forming a triangular formation, they quickly swept along the sea surface towards He Ren's seaside villa.
In the villa, when Grandma saw Zhao Guang hanging up his phone with a heavy expression, she kindly smiled, "It's okay. If you have something to do, go ahead and deal with it."
Zhao Guang hesitated, wondering if he should go to the Dragon Palace to see what was happening. Old Uncle Zeng had high status; when he forcibly charged into the Eastern Dragon Palace without warning, the elders who were stationed there did not receive orders from Zhao Guang and really dared not harm Old Uncle Zeng.
Thus, Zhao Guang was actually worried that Old Uncle Zeng's rush into the Dragon Palace might cause casualties within. Because Elder Lu obtained the information from Chancellor Xia, he wasn't clear on the specific situation.
On the other side, as Old Uncle Zeng and the elder of the West Sea who had recovered to a Heaven realm level flew across the sea surface, rapidly approaching He Ren's seaside villa, they generated layer after layer of waves in their wake.
Old Uncle Zeng, with his extensive experience, knew that the weapon used by the Lu sisters was an extremely powerful combination artifact. However, against such weapons, all one needed to do was counter them with arrays; if the elders surrounded and cooperated, there would be no need to fear acting alone.
In the villa, Zhao Guang was silent for a moment before saying, "I should still go back and take a look."
Right as he started moving, an ear-splitting clap of thunder suddenly echoed outside!
Zhao Guang walked to the window and looked out but didn't see anything unusual.
The flying Old Uncle Zeng and elder from the West Sea also heard this thunderclap. The recently lightning-struck Old Uncle Zeng couldn't help but shudder.
"I say one last time: do not harm mortals!"
An incredibly solemn voice appeared in the clouds high above.
Whooosh whooosh whooosh!
As if a meteor fell into the sea, just one bright meteor descended from the sky and hit precisely on the back of the old West Sea elder who was flying at low altitude!
The old elders all emitted a muffled groan and plunged directly into the ocean, leaving long trails of water behind.
Old Zeng, leading the flight, quickly slowed down.
Swoosh swoosh swoosh... Like a water ski maneuver, six West Sea elders slid along inertia straight to the beach!
When they stood up again in horror, they discovered that their乾坤 (Heavenly) level cultivation had turned into ashes!
All cultivation lost, turning back into ordinary humans!
Burned clean without a trace, not even the slightest bit of mana could be mobilized!
Not just temporarily sealed off in terms of power but completely devoid of any mana! Centuries of cultivated dragon丹 (pellets), all hundreds of open acupoints, were now blocked up!
"Dare to repeatedly attempt violence against ordinary humans This time a slight punishment will be administered. Should it be discovered again, both form and spirit shall be annihilated!" That stern voice echoed in the high sky.
"Who" Frightened, Old Zeng flew upwards.
"There are gods above three feet from your head!" The voice responded to Old Zeng, then another dazzling meteor fell down.
When the meteor struck Old Zeng's back, he was immediately knocked half a meter downwards.
Old Zeng wanted to fly again but another meteor hit his head!
Another one... Another one...
A total of seven!
Meter after meter down!
Directly knocking Old Zeng from the sky into the sea!
Drenched, when Old Zeng crawled out from the ocean, he was terrified to find his cultivation had been forcibly knocked back from Heavenly level to Earthshaking level!
His dragon丹 (pellet), refined countless times, seemed like it had been sealed with cement, leaving only forty weakly open acupoints.
The sky returned to calmness. Clouds drifted by as if nothing had happened at all.
"Ancestor Dragon, what should we do" The elders, looking like a group of drowned chickens, shuffled and limped over to where Old Zeng was.
The old man Zeng gritted his teeth and looked up to the sky, "Within a hundred years, no one is allowed to speak of occupying Donghai again!"
Even at his age of several hundred zhuo, he was almost brought to tears by this situation!
He had led the best troops from Xihai to Donghai City, intending to apply pressure on the Dragon Palace of Donghai. However, before they could do anything substantial, their entire force was obliterated!
This not only included the senior elders who represented Donghai's top combat power and instantly lost all their strength, but he himself also plummeted from his proud Qian-level to a measly Zhen-level!
Not to mention the black wolf who had been captured by the Dragon God Temple beforehand!
The forces cultivated over several hundred years in Xihai's Dragon Palace were now reduced to nothing.
Currently, all that the old man Zeng wanted was to quickly return to Xihai’s Dragon Palace and end this nightmare.
The cunning and ruthless old man suddenly filled with fear. He waved his hand, "Return! Return!"
Donghai's strength was unfathomable, something that he couldn't even touch!
Zeng finally understood; the Donghai Dragon Palace had been pretending to be weak in order to strike back viciously! They were making him jump step by step into their trap!
The old man Zeng, seeing his panicked expression for the first time, made the Xihai’s senior elders who had lost all their powers look at him with equal panic. "Dragon Ancestor, what about the Crown Prince"
"How could we still care about him Let's just go back!" The old man Zeng fled along the coastal road like a defeated soldier.
An old man of the Zhen level would be easily wiped out by someone above the Dou level, let alone he was also bringing along those Xihai elders who were now practically useless!
Currently, all that Zeng wanted to do was return to the Dragon Palace of Xihai as quickly as possible and hide there for a couple hundred years before re-emerging.
He had been arrogant in his actions over the past few decades, accumulating quite a number of enemies. If these foes knew he had fallen to Zhen level and most of the elders from Xihai were also suffering losses, they would not hesitate to come for him!
The only way he could survive was by relying on the powerful formations in the Dragon Palace. However, if he encountered his enemies during this return journey, it would be extremely dangerous.
This old man Zeng no longer had any arrogance left; instead, he was filled with anxiety and fear!
As he struggled through the sand, Zeng suddenly stopped, as though something occurred to him. He shouted loudly, "A miscalculation! A complete miscalculation!"
"What happened, Dragon Ancestor" The defeated elders hurriedly asked.
"One wrong step leads to a million mistakes," Zeng suddenly understood. "It must be that Zhao Kuo has endured the heavenly tribulation and ascended to become a Celestial Dragon! It was him causing trouble in recent days!
The old man Zeng still felt a chill run down his spine when he thought about the "meteor shower" and "meteor hammer." He muttered to himself, "Heaven Dragon Realm! It must be Zhao Ran! We were all deceived by the East Sea!"
On the beach, he stamped heavily with his foot, leaving a deep footprint. “No one is allowed to mention anything about invading the East Sea for five hundred years! There are Heaven Dragon experts in the East Sea, and we won't be able to overpower them in the East Sea for at least five hundred years!”
In his memory, only the Heaven Dragon Realm could reverse heaven and earth with such powerful abilities!
The old man Zeng became more frightened as he thought about it. If Zhao Kuo has reached the Heaven Dragon Realm, then in the future, they of the West Sea will have to go around the East Sea.
He was panicked but never expected Zhao Kuo's failure at transcending tribulation and the attack from a great cultivator of Core Formation stage!
In the villa by the seaside, after much deliberation, Zhao Guang decided to visit the Dragon Palace to see what had happened.
He took out his car keys and walked towards the door. "Aunt, I have urgent matters to attend to and might be a little late."
"It's okay, go ahead and take care of your business!" Grandmother was understanding.
Without delay, Zhao Guang left the villa. Soon after, he drove his black Chevrolet past the door.
Zhao Hongyu was worried about Zhao Guang but had to accompany her grandmother in conversation. Hao Ren also felt that something was amiss, but since Zhao Guang had gone to handle it, he decided to stay and keep company with Grandma.
In this way, the villa remained lively for another ten minutes before Zhao Guang returned, driving his black Chevrolet as quickly as ever.
"What happened" Grandmother asked worriedly when she saw him come back suddenly.
"Everything's fine. The matter has been resolved!" Zhao Guang looked refreshed and different from how he was earlier!
Even Zhao Yanzi had never seen her usually serious father in such a good mood before.
Zhao Hongyu was also curious, gently nudging Zhao Guang and asking, "What happened"
Earlier, when Lu Qing called Zhao Guang, she heard the whole conversation. The old man Zeng forcefully stormed into the Dragon Palace of the East Sea and rescued one of their West Sea elders; this didn't sound like good news at all.
"Haha, Aunt, it was some business matters. It's resolved now!" Zhao Guang sounded cheerful with a rosy complexion as if he had changed into another person.
Grandmother was relieved when she saw that Zhao Guang seemed happy and didn't pry further. However, Zhao Hongyu wasn’t satisfied, gently twisting his arm and whispering, "What exactly happened"
Hao Ren was also very curious and listened carefully to their conversation.
Zhao Guang turned around to look at Zhao Hongyu and Hao Ren before answering in a low voice, "The West Sea recently sent a proposal for peace through their Dragon Palace's Grand Chancellor. They offered ten thousand ounces of gold, one hundred thousand ounces of silver, ten thousand years old deep-sea coral red drops, fifty top-grade night pearls, three thousand foundation-building pills, and eight blocks of West Sea玄冰to exchange for the life of Prince Zeng Yitao and a promise to not engage in battle for five years!"
