Conditions?
Han Li’s brows furrowed slightly as he faced the Eight Colorful Loaches directly, while his peripheral vision was sizing up Guanhai Daoren.
He was wondering whether to attack directly and snatch it. The Eight Colorful Loaches were within arm’s reach, and if he were to take action, there was a considerable chance of seizing it.
Guanhai Daoren was about to state his conditions, which if excessive, would complicate matters.
“Fellow Daoist, let’s not resort to chaos,” Guanhai Daoren suddenly looked towards Han Li, said with a smile, his left hand casually unfolding to reveal a chaos-colored large clock.
A chill ran through Han Li’s heart; this Guanhai Daoren was highly sensitive, almost touching upon Divine Sense— he was even aware of the malice hidden deep in Han Li’s heart.
“Fellow Daoist jests. What are your conditions? Please explain them,” said Han Li, keeping his composure and smiling in response.
He temporarily abandoned the idea of taking action; Guanhai Daoren’s chaos-colored large clock, undoubtedly an imperial weapon, was operational and ready for use. He had come prepared, anticipating Han Li’s moves.
Long Yue nodded, also extinguishing a certain thought.
If even her husband spoke like this, it meant they had little confidence; otherwise, following the plan, they would have taken the Eight Colorful Loaches and fled before Guanhai Daoren could find them.
“This condition might be somewhat difficult for the Dragon Girl, but with the fellow Daoist here, it shouldn’t be an issue,” Guanhai Daoren transmitted his primordial spirit’s voice, stating the condition, before slowly speaking out loud.
Han Li and Long Yue exchanged a glance, their brows both slightly creased.
“Husband, shall we agree?” Long Yue’s Divine Spirit silently communicated to Han Li.
“Let’s just go with it. Making more issues is worse than making fewer. With my ability, I can just barely achieve it, so let’s agree,” Han Li replied after a moment’s contemplation.
“But…”
“Yue’er, this old Daoist is guarding against us. It’s not just the large clock in his hand; even his waistband is an imperial weapon. For us to forcefully take it would be very difficult.”
“That old bull-nosed geezer!”
“Let’s simply create a good bond with Penglai Immortal Sect.”
Han Li said to Long Yue, feeling displeased deep inside. He decided to capture the Fairy Qingfrost earlier to see how anxious Guanhai Daoren would get.
He had considered forcibly taking it earlier, but Zi Yi informed him that Guanhai Daoren had another imperial weapon on him, leaving Han Li with no choice but to relent.
“How have the two of you decided?”
Guanhai Daoren had been watching them, quietly waiting for their silent discussion, and asked when it seemed they had finished.
“The old Daoist’s move was masterful. We agree,” Han Li said indifferently.
A smile crept across the wrinkled face of Guanhai Daoren, “It’s good that the fellow Daoist agrees.”
The three of them continued to converse, discussing the details, before Long Yue gathered the Eight Colorful Loaches and Han Li, embracing her, instantly left Penglai Fairy Island.
“Is Qianyuan Divine Province about to change?”
After Han Li and Long Yue left, Guanhai Daoren’s expression immediately turned somber and serious.
He had maintained a mental connection with two imperial weapons the entire time, the Binding Dragon Cord and the Primordial Clock. Their Artifact Spirits informed him that Han Li was not a Tongxuan Realm powerhouse from sacred places like Bai Yujing, Xumi Mountain, Myriad Demon Mountain, and the likes.
The investigation by the two imperial weapons was something Guanhai Daoren trusted. However, they were also unable to peek at Han Li’s true identity. Their perception was blocked by the power of an imperial weapon; when they tried to gaze upon Han Li’s true identity, they saw only endless void.
A mysterious Tongxuan Realm powerhouse possessing an imperial weapon was an unpredictable factor for Qianyuan Divine Province. Perhaps the disappearance of the Demon Emperor from Myriad Demon Mountain a few months ago had something to do with this person.
“Sigh~”
With a sigh, Guanhai Daoren’s figure disappeared from the location, returning to the cliff.
He sat down cross-legged again, facing Divine Continent, closed his eyes, but his thoughts were still on the Dragon Girl.
Almost no one knew that the Great Saint who slayed dragons in ancient times originated from Penglai Immortal Sect and that the Great Saint was just a separate incarnation of a Heavenly Immortal from the Sect, using this identity for certain schemes.
The Heavenly Immortal ancestor, aware that he could not survive the ancient calamity, made many plans for the Penglai Immortal Sect to flourish and rise triumphantly after the crisis, and slaying all the worldly dragon descendants was one of them.
According to the sect’s internal records, the Heavenly Immortal ancestor, using the identity of the Great Saint, deliberately hunted the Sacred Dragon for three thousand years, forcing it into Qianyuan Divine Province. After slaying the Sacred Dragon and taking everything except the Dragon Ball and Dragon Soul, he established a Secret Territory, allowing the Sacred Dragon to reincarnate after the great calamity.
As planned, once the Dragon Girl returned to the Divine Yuan Realm, Guanhai Daoren could take action. Using the Eight Colorful Loaches as a lure, he would find the Dragon Girl and merge it with her, securing a brand-new Dragon Girl for the Penglai Immortal Sect.
The Eight Colorful Loaches was not just Long Yue’s previous dragon form, but also incorporated dragon forms, Dragon Balls, and Dragon Souls of all dragon descendants vanquished by the Great Saint, carefully nurtured for a hundred thousand years until it was successful.
If the Dragon Girl were to merge with the Eight Colorful Loaches, her essence would far surpass her former life, becoming almost that of a pure-blooded True Dragon. It would be easy for her to become a Quasi Emperor then, and even hoping to become an emperor was very likely.
The Eight Colorful Loaches, having been nurtured by the Penglai Immortal Sect for a hundred thousand years, naturally bore the deep imprint of the Sect, along with measures left by the Heavenly Immortal ancestor.
Once the Eight Colorful Loaches merged with the Dragon Girl, she would be bound to the Penglai Immortal Sect, considering herself as part of the Sect. Penglai Immortal Sect would then rise smoothly under the Dragon Girl’s lead, becoming one of the most prominent Sacred Lands and Imperial Empires in the Endless Yuankun Domain.
Even if the Dragon Girl realized the trap, he could forcefully capture her and make the Eight Colorful Loaches blend with her, the outcome would be the same.
Alas, an error occurred. After the Sacred Dragon reincarnated and left the Sacred Dragon Secret Realm, it’s unknown what transpired, but it came to be accompanied by a mysterious Tongxuan Realm powerhouse, in possession of top-notch imperial weapons.
