"How can you criticize the fate of my Dragon Clan?" Ao Guang said with a trace of regret flashing across his face.
"Father, when the Yellow Emperor fought Chiyou Zhuolu, our ancestor Yinglong followed him and fought with him. He overcame thorns and thorns, and made great achievements in battle. What was the final result? What did his descendants get? Nothing, but became a jailer guarding prisoners. "Ao Yue still didn't look up, and argued.
"Prisoner, jailer? Is this how you view the mission of our Dragon Clan?" Ao Guang frowned and asked back.
"It's not the child who sees it this way, but the heavens who see it this way... When did they care about the feelings of our dragon clan? Back then, the Dragon King of Jinghe just made such a small mistake, and he was about to be caught at the dragon-cutting platform and suffered that knife. What would happen? Miserable? At that time, you and the other uncles all went to heaven to plead for mercy, but what happened?" Ao Yue said through gritted teeth.
When everyone heard this, the voice of discussion just now gradually became smaller, and it seemed that they couldn't help thinking about it.
When Shen Luo thought about the Jinghe Dragon King, he also felt helpless.
Chapter 0593
"It is precisely because of the strict laws of the heavenly court that the law can be followed by words, so that the three realms can be ruled. If the Dragon King of Jinghe abides by the rules of heaven, how can he die because of this?" Ao Guang said with a sigh.
"Well, the laws are strict, and the Dragon King of Jinghe deserves death for breaking the law, so what about my third brother?" Hearing this, Ao Yue seemed to be greatly stimulated, she immediately raised her head and asked loudly.
Everyone knows that the third brother in his mouth is Ao Bing, the third prince who was once the favorite of Dragon King Ao Guang.
Ao Guang's expression darkened, and he was speechless for a while.
"What did the third brother do? It was just to prevent the youngest son of Tota Heavenly King Li Jing from playing in the East China Sea, preventing the rising winds and waves from harming the people on the coast, but he was brutally killed by him. He also pulled out the dragon tendons and lost his whole body. As for the dragon soul, which has nowhere to rest, it finally drifts away in the sea breeze." Ao Yue's eyes turned red, and the more she spoke, the more excited she became.
Ao Hong frowned tightly, feeling a little unbearable, trying to dissuade Ao Yue from continuing.
But when he opened his mouth, he found that he didn't know what to say.
"Back then, the Heavenly Court didn't care, if we hadn't led the sea to force us, would Nezha have committed suicide and apologized? But even so, he was rescued by Daoist Taiyi in the end. Where is my third brother? Xun? Is this the strict law of the Heavenly Court? It’s just to deceive us that no one in the Dragon Palace of the World dares to resist." Ao Yue almost roared.
"Just talking nonsense, you know that Nezha was also in a state of soulless back then. His mother once made a real clay body for him, trying to help him restrain his spirit. To protect justice, Li Jing, the king of Tota, once smashed the statue with his own hands." Ao Guang scolded.
"It's just a hypocrisy, and only you, the father, will believe it. Haha... now it's all right, under the butcher knife of the demons, the heaven, the world, the Dragon Palace... all places are finally really fair." Ao Yue smiled wryly.
"Are you doing this just to bring the Dragon Palace to annihilate with you?" Ao Guang asked slowly as the look in his eyes dimmed little by little.
"Father, don't you understand? If you continue to resist, you will be completely destroyed. Now that the building of the Three Realms is about to collapse, our Dragon Palace can't resist the demons at all. If you are still so obsessed, you will really cut off the continuation of the dragons. Towards destruction." Ao Yue said with a sad face.
"Are you going to give up your ancestral foundation for your father, give up your ancestral glory, give up your past mission, and join the demon clan?" Ao Guang asked with a bitter expression.
"I just didn't think I could persuade you, so I tried to release the demons in Longyuan and force you to give up resistance. It's just that I didn't expect that fellow Daoist Shen could kill Master Yu. That's all, in the future, the dragons and the I don't have to worry about what will happen to the descendants of the East China Sea." Ao Yue shook her head and said.
After saying a word, she suddenly raised her arm and pointed it like a knife. A silver edge lit up on the palm of her hand, and she slashed straight towards her head.
Everyone was shocked when they saw this, but there was no time to stop it.
At this time, a gust of wind suddenly flashed by, and a bright moon shadow fell, and the sinking figure instantly moved sideways to Ao Yue's side, grabbed her arm, and clenched it tightly, making it impossible for her to break free.
"What will be the fate of the water descendants of the dragon clan? How can you see it if you don't live? If you don't see it... how can you know that you are so wrong?" Shen Luo's eyes narrowed slightly, and he said slowly.
Seeing this, Ao Guang raised his hand and pinched a formula, and hit Ao Yue.
In the void, there seemed to be the sound of dragon chant, and phantoms of dragon claws emerged out of thin air, piercing into many important orifices on Ao Yue's body.
She grunted a few times, and a streak of blood slowly flowed out from the corner of her mouth, and the breath on her body dissipated.
"My father has sealed your cultivation, so you should go to Longyuan and reflect on it. If one day it is the demons who bring you back to the sky, then you are right. If it is not...you will stay in it all the time." Go." Ao Guang said with a difficult tone.
After finishing speaking, he waved back and ordered someone to push him down, and he would enter the bottom of Longyuan later.
After Ao Yue was taken away, the hall could not be calm for a long time, until Ao Guang raised his hand and pressed it, and everyone became quiet.
"Dragon Palace was robbed this time. I never thought that Xiao Qiang was the cause of the disaster. This king cannot escape the responsibility. It is indeed time for the Dragon King to be released. Ao..." Ao Guang sat up straight and said slowly.
It's just that he was interrupted by Ao Zhong as soon as he spoke: "Father, before you announce this matter, the child still has something to say."
"Tell me." Ao Guang hesitated and said.
Just when everyone thought that Ao Zhong was going to fight for himself in the end, they heard him say:
"Father, after this trip to Longyuan, my child has already seen that I can't even protect the person who loves me, and instead caused her to lose her life for me. How can I protect the Dragon Palace and Donghai? I am indeed not The best candidate for the Lord of the Dragon Palace, the ninth younger brother is the one who should truly inherit the throne."
As soon as his voice fell, everyone was very surprised, and did not understand why he would give up on his own initiative.
"The reason why I was able to successfully recapture the Dragon Palace was not because I was good at fighting and led my subordinates to expel the demons, but because many demons and the Luhua Palace water army brought by the ninth brother have been swallowed by the Kunpeng monster. And those three demon dragons were killed by Jiudi and Daoyou Shen jointly, so they are the ones who really saved Dragon Palace." Then, Ao Zhong told the truth that he learned in Longyuan.
After everyone listened, they finally understood that General Xie and others who had previously opposed Ao Hong's succession also began to change their attitudes.
"Leading the East China Sea is not an easy task. It means greater pressure and responsibility. Hong'er may not be able to do it well by himself. Zhong'er, you will have to assist him in the future." Hearing this, Ao Guang said slowly.
As soon as the words fell, his gaze slowly swept over Ao Hong, Ao Zhong, and then fell on Shen Luo. After looking up and down again, a strange look flashed in his eyes.
"I obey." Ao Zhong clasped his fists and said.
"Ao Hong obeys orders. From today onwards, you will be the next Dragon King of the East China Sea. You will be responsible for commanding the East China Sea and fighting the demons. Even if the weather is chaotic and the location is inconvenient, you must guide the world's water transportation and save all living beings as much as possible." Ao Guang said.
"Baby takes orders." Ao Hong clasped his fists and said.
"Old man, make arrangements. After three days, we will re-open the Ascending Dragon Terrace and inherit the ancestor dragon soul." Ao Guang stood up slowly with his hands on the dragon chariot, and announced to everyone.
"Obey." Everyone clasped their fists at the same time and said in unison.
"Okay, you all go down." Ao Guang sat down slowly, with a tired look on his face.
When everyone heard the words, they left one after another.
Shen Luo was also planning to leave with Ao Hong, but he heard Ao Guang suddenly say: "Little friend Shen, can you stay for a while?"
Chapter 0594
"There is nothing you can do." Shen Luo looked at Ao Guang and nodded.
The rest of the people looked back one after another, somewhat surprised in their eyes.
After everyone else had left the hall, Ao Guang raised his hand, and a piece of water condensed into a seat, which was placed at the bottom of the steps.
Shen Luo thanked him and sat down.
"The last time I heard Hong'er talking about Shen Xiaoyou was hundreds of years ago. I don't know where Shen Xiaoyou practiced all these years?" Ao Guang asked.
Shen Luo frowned slightly, thinking in his heart, this is to check my whereabouts.
"Before this junior, I had been practicing in seclusion on Fangcun Mountain, and rarely traveled in the world. I escaped from the mountain only after the sect encountered an accident. I felt that my cultivation was not good enough, so I kept hiding in Tibet and practicing sneakily. This time I passed by the East China Sea. He escaped from being hunted down by demons." He said with a calm expression and a smile.
"Oh, you are a disciple of Fangcunshan?" Ao Guang said with a twinkle in his eyes.
Seeing this, Shen Luo didn't say much, and directly used the Huang Ting Jing exercises, and his whole body immediately lit up with golden light.
"Sure enough, it's the Fangcunshan technique. It seems that there is a divine will in the dark..." Seeing this, Ao Guang's expression eased, and he nodded secretly.
"What do you mean by this senior?" Shen Luo asked doubtfully.
"Although the Zhenhai Iron Rod is just an imitation of the Dinghaishenzhen, it is also a divine weapon. Like the Dinghaishenzhen, it is a divine weapon that came out of the world with a mission. It must not be ordinary people who can convince it to be the master. , the first owner of Dinghai Shenzhen Needle was Dayu who controlled the water, and the next owner was the Monkey King of that year, that is, Sun Wukong, who later defeated the Buddha." Ao Guang said with his eyes restored.
Hearing this, Shen Luo felt a little strange in his heart.
If you say that he is an ordinary person, this extraordinary talent and identity from time travel is no longer ordinary, but if you say that he is not an ordinary person, Shen Luo really doesn't know what is so special right now?
"Senior, this junior has something about the coming of the evil catastrophe. I want to ask you a question or two. Is it okay?" Shen Luo hesitated for a while and said.
"Oh? What do you want to ask?" Ao Guang asked in surprise.
"Back then, with the reincarnation of the unknown man, the demon lord Chi You also split into five separate souls, condensed his human body and was reincarnated. They later became an important factor that led to the failure of the operation to prevent the catastrophe from coming. Do you know the news about them? ?” Shen Luo asked after thinking for a moment.
"It seems that you are probably the core disciple on Fangcun Mountain, and you actually know so much insider information hidden behind the thick fog. Yes, there were indeed such five people back then, but it's a pity that the news about them was later cleared by the demons. Now, most human monks only know that these five people exist, but almost no one knows who they are and what they have done. I also belong to the part that doesn't know." Ao Guang said with some regret.
Hearing this, Shen Luo couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.
"To tell you the truth, the junior knows that he has a heavy burden on his shoulders, and he may have a special mission on his shoulders, but now he seems to be trapped in a maze, at a loss as to how to deal with himself, let alone where to go. Where to go." He sighed and said.
The many pasts experienced in the dream, especially Li Jing's entrustment and the heavenly book given to him, have become his responsibilities and burdens invisibly.
"Although I don't know the news about those split souls, I don't know what kind of mission you are shouldering, and I don't even know what kind of path you are taking, but I can at least tell you that if fate chooses you, then no matter Whether you go or not, this torrent will push you to the position that requires you to take responsibility, it has been like this since ancient times." Ao Guang sighed quietly, with a look of reminiscence in his eyes, and said.
"If it's possible, this junior doesn't want to be the one who goes with the flow, but wants to ride the torrent to take the initiative to complete his mission." Shen Luo shook his head and said slowly.
Ao Guang looked at the young man in front of him, a flash of admiration flashed in his eyes, and he said, "Give me the Zhenhai Iron Rod."
"Senior, didn't you agree that this iron rod has already been recognized by me, so it is my own. Why do you want to take it back?" Shen Luo heard the words, a nervous look flashed in his eyes, and he clutched his waist. Said.
"It looks like an extraordinary look from the front. Why did you miss the foundation of the money fan when it came to the critical moment? Don't worry, I'm not asking you for it, but I just want to help you untie the restriction on the stick." Seeing this, Ao Guang felt a little I can't laugh or cry.
Hearing this, Shen Luo sneered twice, then took out the Zhenhai iron bar and handed it over.
Ao Guang raised his hand to take a shot, and a dragon's claw of illusory light appeared out of thin air, grabbed the stick directly, pulled back, and pulled the long stick back, and it fell into his hand.
He weighed it slightly, and murmured: "It's much lighter than Zhenhai Shenzhen, but not everyone can control it."
After finishing speaking, he raised his hand and grasped the top of the Zhenhai Bing iron rod, and dragon blood began to ooze out from his palm, and immediately it seemed to be burning, emitting a crimson light.
I saw him holding the stick tightly, and slowly stroked his palm from one end of the stick to the other. Along the way, the red light flickered, and there were bursts of "clicking" sounds, and a layer of black matter like iron filings fell off one after another.
Soon, the entire Zhenhai Iron Rod seemed to be re-tempered, and the whole body turned red, and the complicated runes on it lit up one after another, and there were bursts of buzzing sounds inside, and an invisible wave rippled from it.
Shen Luo felt the fluctuations coming from Zhenhai Bing's iron rod, and he was overjoyed.
After a while, all the strange noises on the stick finally disappeared, Ao Guang turned around the stick in his hand, and handed the long stick back.
Shen Luo stretched out his hand to take the Zhenhai Iron Rod. There was still a burst of warmth on the rod, and the light of the various runes and patterns engraved on it was gradually receding and returning to its original state.
However, when Shen Luo poured a ray of magic power into it, the body of the stick suddenly shivered, and immediately let out a "buzz", followed by a strange wave rippling inside, which seemed to be responding to him.
After that layer of restriction was removed, the spirituality of Zhenhai Bing Iron Rod was obviously enhanced a lot.
"Thank you, senior." Shen Luo put away the iron rod and cupped his fists in gratitude.
Ao Guang nodded, just about to speak, but he seemed to be affected by the injury, and suddenly coughed violently, spurting out a big mouthful of blood.
"Senior..." Shen Luo screamed, and wanted to step forward.
Ao Guang already covered his mouth, raised his hand and waved at him, signaling that he was fine.
"The injury can't be suppressed anymore. After the ceremony is completed, this burden can be relieved. From now on, these troubles will have to be handed over to you young people to solve." Ao Guang leaned back on the back of the throne seat, With a wry smile.
"Ao Hong will be a good successor." Shen Luo said with his eyes narrowed.
Chapter 0595
"Back then...if I hadn't stopped him and Ying'er, maybe I wouldn't have missed these 300 years in vain. I was probably really wrong..." Hearing this, Ao Guang murmured, his eyes dazed for a moment. .
"Senior, it's meaningless to talk about right and wrong for things that have passed." Shen Luo looked at Ao Guang in front of him. Some are majestic as a king, but some are helpless as a father.
"That's right, regretting it now is meaningless after all... You said earlier that you didn't know what your mission was or what you should do, so you might as well go to Huaguo Mountain in Aolai Country." Ao Guangwen Yan, slightly taken aback, then smiled.
"Huaguo Mountain...why do you want to go there?" Shen Luo asked doubtfully.
"Before Sun Wukong learned scriptures and became a Buddha, he erected the banner of 'Monkey King' on Huaguo Mountain. Since you really don't know what to do, you might as well look for the traces of Monkey King, maybe you can get some enlightenment Maybe." Ao Guang said slowly as his eyes fell on Shen Luo.
"Senior said it is true, this junior will go to Huaguo Mountain." Shen Luo heard this, thought for a moment, then nodded.
"Let's leave after Hong'er completes the inheritance, it can be seen that he values you as a friend very much." Ao Guang said again.
"That's what I planned too." Shen Luo nodded.
When he came out of Shuixiu Palace, he immediately saw Ao Hong standing alone under a pillar waiting for him.
"Brother Shen." Seeing Shen Luo coming out, he greeted immediately.
"Why, don't worry, afraid that I will be detained by your father?" Shen Luo quickly went up to him.
"Brother Shen, don't be joking. Since you knew Eldest Sister was a traitor earlier, why didn't you speak to me in advance." Ao Hong said with a sigh.
"So what can I tell you? With your temperament, you will probably help hide it and go to her in private. But you also know what happened in Longyuan. We almost never come back. Ao Xin still lost her. You lost your life, can you not care about these things?" Shen Luo asked.
"I..." Ao Hong was about to speak when he was interrupted by Shen Luo.
"Even if you don't know how to hide it for her, you still can't bear it in your heart. Why should I make things difficult for you?" Shen Luo said.
After hearing this, Ao Hong's frown slowly relaxed, looking a little discouraged.
"Brother Ao, to be honest, it's time for you to change your temperament. In the future, you can lead the East China Sea, and even become the new head of the world. You can no longer be so indecisive." Shen Luo stopped walking and said with a serious expression.
"It won't happen in the future." Ao Hong took a deep breath and said solemnly.
After all, he continued to move forward with Shen Luo, but he didn't mention a word about the dialogue between Shen Luo and the Dragon King.
After that, Ao Hong settled Shen Luo in a dragon palace and water mansion, and left first.
Shen Luo returned to the house, meditated on the bed for a while, and then opened his eyes again. With a twist of his wrist, a blue slate appeared in his palm.
It was the piece that was previously obtained from the Dragon Palace treasure house.
He caressed the stone slab, and slowly brushed across the moss surface, where his fingertips touched, he could feel a strong water-attribute aura.
