The Royal Palace…
Xu Chunniang raised her head and looked at the magnificent and strange palace in front of her.
The sleeping king should be living in here.
She nodded slightly, with an indifferent look on her face, and spoke calmly.
"I know, it's just that I haven't seen you for a long time, and I kind of miss this... old friend."
Upon hearing this, the shrimp soldiers and crab generals immediately showed expressions of envy, admiration and fear on their faces.
“Sir, you are the king’s friend, and you will not be blamed even if you disturb the king’s sleep.
But it’s different for us two. The adults hate to be disturbed when they are sleeping, and they will definitely take it out on us two!”
"In that case, let's not go to this palace first. Take me to some other places."
After Xu Chunniang took another look at the strange palace in front of her, she turned back calmly and asked casually.
"By the way, besides the king, are there any other adults in the city?"
"Other adults?"
The shrimp soldiers and crab generals looked at each other in confusion, "My lord, are you referring to people like you who have a higher level of cultivation and have successfully transformed?"
Xu Chunniang nodded slightly. The most important thing now was to find out how many Yuanying stage monsters there were in this city.
If there are other great demons in the Nascent Soul stage besides the sleeping king, then she must find a chance to escape quickly.
After all, if you wander around the city like this and accidentally run into a big monster and get recognized, that would be bad.
The shrimp soldiers and crab generals shook their heads and said in a strange way.
“More than three hundred years ago, the king had a falling out with the Jiao Palace, and since then the two sides have stopped communicating.
Many adults who used to be close to the king have become distant from him since then. Doesn't the king know about this?"
Xu Chunniang's heart skipped a beat, but her face remained calm.
"Really? Is this true? I have been concentrating on cultivation these years and have not paid attention to external affairs. I have never heard of this matter."
The shrimp soldiers and crabs looked at each other and immediately understood that this gentleman had risked offending the Dragon Palace to accept the king's invitation, but it turned out that he didn't know about that matter at all.
"Do you know how the king fell out with the Dragon King? What happened more than three hundred years ago?"
The shrimp soldiers and crab generals shook their heads in unison, "I don't know."
Even if they had a hundred guts, they would not dare to inquire about the king's private affairs.
What's more, it involves a behemoth like the Jiaohuang Palace.
Seeing that they didn't know what happened that year, Xu Chunniang was not too disappointed.
After learning that there was only one Nascent Soul cultivator in the city, the king, and that the king was still sleeping, she felt much more at ease.
Even with these indirect hints, there are still many unclear points.
For example, what is the true identity of that king, and what is the purpose of his widespread invitation
These things cannot be asked in detail. Once asked in detail, the minnows in front of you will definitely notice something is wrong.
These two people seem to be honest and simple, without any brains or scheming.
But the lifespan of sea creatures is long, and those who can cultivate to the Golden Core stage have often lived for hundreds or even thousands of years. It is impossible for them to be completely without any scheming.
After spending several days, the shrimp soldiers and crab generals took Xu Chunniang around the city and visited all the places they could go.
“Sir, this palace is the most magnificent and noble one in the city except for the royal palace. You can stay here.
I still have the duty of guarding the city gate, so I can't leave for too long. If you need anything, just let us know."
Xu Chunniang nodded and said, "Thank you for your hard work."
"It is our honor to serve you, my Lord. How can it be considered hard work?"
The shrimp soldiers and crab generals were flattered and waved their hands repeatedly.
When Xu Chunniang saw this scene, she sighed inwardly.
If the two people in front of her knew that she was a human cultivator, they would probably start fighting immediately.
Looking at the two figures leaving, she seemed to be thinking about something.
Creations like shrimp soldiers and crab generals, which have developed sound minds and have begun to transform, can no longer be called sea monsters.
Compared to sea monsters, the word "sea clan" is obviously more suitable for them.
Almost all sea monsters living in the sea, as long as they can transform, can join the sea clan.
However, the transformations of most sea monsters are not perfect. After transformation, their bodies still retain many characteristics of the beasts, making them look strange.
The biggest difference between the sea people and the monsters is that they have established their own unique cultivation civilization and are one of the hundred major alien races.
Advanced sea creatures are often born, such as the Jiao clan in the Jiao Palace and the king in this city. As rulers, they rule the deep sea.
As for the lower-level sea creatures, some are born there, such as the humans and turtles.
Some of them are the transformed forms of sea monsters, such as the shrimp soldiers and crab generals mentioned above.
Xu Chunniang didn't know much about the sea people.
Before this, I had only heard of a few famous tribes such as the dragon tribe, the Jiao tribe, and the human tribe, but had never seen anyone from the sea tribe in person.
Now that I have unexpectedly arrived in this huge underwater city, it has been an eye-opener for me to see all kinds of sea creatures.
Xu Chunniang wanted to ask how they transformed themselves.
However, when she thought that in the eyes of the sea creatures, she was a high-level demon with a perfect transformation, she gave up the idea.
She walked into a tall palace in front of her, and after confirming that there was no one in the palace, she found a secluded place and used the Dayan technique to calculate the exact location of Xiaojuzi.
A quarter of an hour later, Xu Chunniang looked at the calculation results and frowned slightly.
The results showed that Little Orange was very close to her, hidden in this huge underwater city.
However, the bad thing is that the direction of the little orange is consistent with the location of the palace.
Qiongqi is only at the Jindan stage. What is it doing in the palace? Isn't it afraid of waking up the Yuanying stage king
There was a hint of hesitation in Xu Chunniang's eyes, not knowing whether she should sneak into the palace, but she heard a strange roar coming from the direction of the palace.
The roar sounded sharp, but it was not unpleasant to listen to. Instead, it made people feel itchy.
Xu Chunniang's eyes narrowed slightly, knowing that something had happened in the palace. Could it be... that Qiongqi had caused the trouble
With a thought, she appeared above the hall, looking far towards the direction of the palace.
Above the palace, a huge shadow of a giant clam appeared, emitting several rays of light, which fell heavily towards a certain place in the palace.
Qiongqi, who was on the run, saw this scene and thought to himself that something was wrong.
The sleeping big guy has been alarmed, and I’m afraid it won’t be so easy to escape this time.
Its face was solemn, and it tried its best to avoid the flying light.
Once you are hit by these false lights, you will fall into a brief daze.
A Nascent Soul level demon like the Mirage Demon should not be underestimated even if it has not yet fully awakened.
If you lose consciousness for a moment, you may face a life-and-death crisis.
Qiongqi did not dare to be careless. All four of its claws moved at the same time, and the two wings behind it trembled constantly, frantically dodging the false light.
