"when-"
"Dazhen Envoy, I have come to congratulate Her Majesty Ying—"
The sound of gongs and shouts from afar came along the water. Ji Yuan and Zao Niang had also heard them. However, they did not go in search of the sound, but stood at the bottom of the river and watched a bright and majestic light spreading towards them from afar.
The attention of the aquatic creatures around him was all focused on the direction where the sound came from. Some looked strange, some looked confused, most of them didn't know what was going on, while some suddenly realized.
"Mr. Ji, isn't this a bit too ostentatious?"
Zaoniang looked into the distance curiously, and when she saw this burst of righteous light, she knew that Master Yin must have come.
"It is indeed a bit ostentatious, but if it is not, there is no point in taking this step. If it is not ostentatious, how can the name of Dazhen spread throughout the world?"
Zao Niang frowned, wanting to ask but feeling that she couldn't get to the point. Ji Yuan looked at her and decided to explain.
"Most of these four water monsters have no impression of Dazhen. It is just a human country. But after this incident, their impression of Dazhen is this ship. Among the human countries nowadays, Dazhen may not be known far away, but in the overall situation of the world, the name of Dazhen will definitely be at the top."
“Is this reputation important?”
Ji Yuan looked at the light getting closer and closer in the distance and whispered.
"It is very important and meaningful. The times are different now. Humanity must stand up after all. Ruoli's Dragon Transformation Banquet is a rare opportunity."
When Ji Yuan was talking to Zao Niang, countless water creatures around them were also discussing. With Ji Yuan's hearing, he could hear the expected words among the various noises, most of which were discussing what the white light at the spiritual level was.
Some aquatic creatures or water gods who were originally from the waters near Dazhen were even more surprised and looked up into the distance to confirm again and again.
The closer to the Dragon Palace one gets, the more fully prepared the underwater tables are, and even many aquatic creatures have already taken their seats. However, at this moment, their attention is drawn to the sound of gongs coming from afar.
"The ship?" "Dazhen's people?"
"Why did the Dazhen envoy come?"
"Could this majestic aura be attributed to Lord Yin himself?"
"No doubt about it!" "So ostentatious? What does Dazhen want to do?"
"Are you really here to congratulate Madam Ying?"
Several water creatures on Dazhen's side were having a heated discussion. Several water monsters from overseas who were sitting close to the table came over to ask questions.
"Hey guys, do you know where this Dazhen envoy came from?"
"Yes, how dare you be so ostentatious at an occasion like Empress Ying's Dragon Transformation Banquet? Are you here to provoke me?"
On Dazhen's side, an old man with a hunched back and a few fish scales on his cheeks looked to the side.
"Are some of you from overseas?"
"Yes, we came all the way from Beihai just to see Madam Ying's face!"
"Oh, but you've asked the right person. That ship should be the official ship of Dazhen. That light is not the light of a magic weapon, but the righteous spirit emanating from a person."
"Yes, this person is the Prime Minister of Dazhen, Yin Zhaoxian Yin Gong."
…
What was going on over there? Dazhen's ship was getting closer and closer. Zao Niang, who was beside Ji Yuan, saw Yin Zhaoxian and Yin Qing standing at the bow at a glance. Her face instantly showed joy.
"Sir? It's Xiao Yinqing and Master Yin. They are all on the boat. They haven't seen me since I took on a physical form!"
Ji Yuan smiled and encouraged.
"Then just go over and say hello."
"Well! Uh, sir, aren't you going?"
Ji Yuan shook his head.
"I won't go over yet, you can go by yourself. Don't be afraid."
After hearing what Mr. Ji said, Zao Niang nodded, jumped up directly, and used the force of the water flow to rise to the path that the building ship must pass.
As the Dazhenlou ship sailed along, everyone on board was actually feeling nervous, even Yin Zhaoxian and Yin Qing were no exception at the beginning.
The difference is that Master Yin appeared to be calm on the surface, and he soon calmed down on the inside as well. The scene was shocking, but the impact was short-lived, while the others were still holding their nerves. After all, they came here with so much fanfare, and there was no guarantee that they would be stopped by monsters, as there were even many dragons below.
Fortunately, no one blocked their way, allowing them to pass unhindered. But at this moment, a beam of water light rose from below.
"Master Imperial Master, someone is coming!"
"Be patient, you are the Great Master of Heaven, you must remain unchanged in the face of all changes!"
"Yes Yes!"
Du Changsheng stopped his colleagues from expressing their anxiety and looked at the people around him. He found that except for the Yin father and son who looked normal, the other court officials were calmer than his colleagues in the Heavenly Master's Office. Even several young princes behaved much better than those practitioners.
"I don't know if it's because the ignorant are fearless, or because Yin Gong is here..."
"We are the envoys of Dazhen. Who is blocking us?"
Du Changsheng stood at the bow and spoke to the woman holding a sword in the distance outside the water curtain, while Yin Qing on the side had already frowned. Although the woman was still far away and his face could not even be seen clearly, he always felt a sense of familiarity.
"Little Yin Qing~~Master Yin~~~"
Yin Zhaoxian was stunned for a moment and looked at his son who was also stunned. The number of people in the world who would call them like that could be counted on one hand, and they were all related to Ji Yuan.
"It's me, I'm Zao Niang!"
Zao Niang certainly had no intention of stopping the big ship. She quickly swam to the side of the ship and swam along with the ship. She looked at Yin Qing and Yin Zhaoxian inside through the water curtain at the side of the ship, and ignored everyone else.
"Mother Zao?"
Both Yin's father and son frowned. They had never heard of this name, but Yin Qing quickly recognized the sword in Zao Niang's hand.
As if realizing something, Zao Niang quickly added.
"It's me, I'm the jujube tree. I have a name now, given by the master. My name is Zao Niang! Look, what I hold in my hand is Qingying, the master's sword. It can't be fake, right?"
Zao Niang raised her sword as she spoke.
Buzz…
The immortal sword rang softly and the sword intent spread. Many aquatic creatures nearby felt as if they were electrified. A chill swept through like a gust of wind, and many of them trembled subconsciously.
"Date tree!"
"Dad, it's a jujube tree, the jujube tree in Mr. Ji's yard!"
Yin Qing showed joy on his face, while Yin Zhaoxian bowed slightly to Zaoniang.
"Master Yin, can Zao Niang come on board?"
Hearing Zao Niang's voice coming in, Yin Zhaoxian reached out and led her to the side.
"please."
Zao Niang smiled and stepped directly from the river outside to the ship. With colorless sword intent flowing through her body, she ignored the restrictions and water curtains set up by Du Changsheng and others and stepped into the ship without any hindrance.
"Mrs. Zao has met Master Yin!"
Zao Niang can be casual with Yin Qingzao Niang, but she has always respected Master Yin since she was conscious. She recalled that when Mr. Ji left for the first time, he only recognized Master Yin as his friend. Master Yin had already bowed just now, and after she got on the boat, she immediately returned the greeting with Jian Wanfu in her arms, and looked up at Yin Qing.
"How's it going, little Yinqing, is Zao Niang pretty?"
Yin Qing replied with a smile.
"Bright and beautiful!"
Zao Niang walked directly to Yin Qing, as if time could not erase her closeness to Yin Qing. Facing the middle-aged Yin Qing, she even stretched out her hand and pointed at her chest.
"I always feel like you're only this tall. Here."
Zao Niang handed Yin Qing a handful of dates, and Yin Qing quickly grabbed them.
"Thank you, Mother Zao! Dad, I haven't eaten these dates for many years!"
"Hahaha, yeah, it's been many years."
"Master Yin, Zao Niang still has some, please use it!"
Zao Niang directly grabbed another gauze bag from her sleeve and handed it to Yin Qing. There were quite a few dates in the bag.
The officials and imperial guards around, as well as the celestial masters in the celestial master's office, were quite surprised. They didn't expect to meet an acquaintance of the Yin family here. Several young princes came closer to take a look out of curiosity.
Yin Qing looked at the people around him and raised the gauze bag in his hand.
"Mother Zao, you gave this to me and my father, so how about I share it with others to have a taste?"
Seeing Zao Niang nod, Yin Qing took out the dates and distributed them to the people around him. Everyone was given one, even the imperial guards. The whole bag was divided up cleanly. In the end, Yin's father and son each got one.
"Mrs. Zao, is Mr. Ji here too?"
When Yin Zhaoxian asked this question, Zao Niang looked out from the side of the boat, but she couldn't see Ji Yuan down there.
"The master is here. He was standing downstairs just now. Anyway, the master is in the Dragon Palace, and Hu Yun is here too. They are all Ruoli's family, so he must be here."
At this time, two Yakshas approached the ship and bowed outside.
"We are the Yakshas patrolling the river. The Dragon King has ordered us to invite the Great Envoy to follow us into the Dragon Palace."
After the people on the boat bowed in return, two Yakshas guided a stream of water to support the bottom of the ship. Du Changsheng and others carefully controlled the ship and sailed into the Dragon Palace little by little.
Inside the main hall of the Dragon Palace, all the dragons from the four seas, including several Dragon Kings, looked towards the outside of the hall. The bright and righteous aura could not be ignored at all, and it almost illuminated half of the Dragon Palace in front.
"Lord Yinglong, who is coming?"
"It should be the current Prime Minister of Dazhen, Yin Zhaoxian. He is a great scholar of the time, a very outstanding scholar, and his righteous spirit can cleanse evil spirits. He symbolizes his heart, his ambition, and his noble character. He is favored by heaven and earth, and is the person destined by Wenquxing."
"Wenquxing is responsible for your destiny? What does this mean?"
The old dragon looked at the questioner.
"This is what my good friend said. I think it's not difficult to understand its meaning."
Yin Zhaoxian had already developed a righteous spirit back then, and now he has both literary and military luck. His humanity, literary and military luck are like the balance of yin and yang. Although Yin Zhaoxian's righteous spirit seems normal, it has undergone a qualitative change just like humanity.
During the brief exchange, the envoys of Dazhen had already walked into the main hall led by Yaksha. Everyone straightened their backs and tried not to embarrass Dazhen. Yin Zhaoxian took the lead, followed by Yin Qing.
The great and righteous energy appears bright from a distance and makes Yin Zhaoxian and others particularly vivid when they are nearby. There is a vague and changing aura surrounding their heads.
"The Minister of the Great Zhen Dynasty, Yin Zhaoxian, has led the Great Zhen Dynasty envoys, following the imperial decree of the Great Zhen Dynasty Emperor, to congratulate Madam Ying on her successful transformation into a dragon. Here is the list of gifts!"
After Yin Zhaoxian finished speaking, he bowed towards the old dragon's main seat.
"Mr. Yin is so polite!"
After receiving the salute, Old Dragon stood up and bowed to Yin Zhaoxian in return. Although he did not bow, the Dragon King actually stood up to return the salute. This scene still made Du Changsheng and others stare in amazement.
The four seas dragons on both sides of the hall had a similar feeling. Many of them looked at each other and discussed among themselves, wondering if the Dragon King had gone too far in returning the gift.
"Mr. Yin, the ones wearing crowns on both sides are the Dragon Lords of the Four Seas. This one is the Yellow Dragon Lord."
The old dragon stretched out his hand to lead the way to both sides. Upon hearing this, Yin Zhaoxian turned to the nearest old man and bowed to him politely.
"Yin Zhaoxian is polite."
Old Huanglong was just sitting originally, but at the moment when Yin Zhaoxian saluted him, a strong sense of heaviness arose in his mind. He seemed to see the majestic and majestic aura like rain clouds hanging from a dragon, rolling and condensing. In a trance, the palace seemed to have no roof, the stars and Wenqu shone like the sun, and the infinite literary and artistic luck of the world was entangled with the stars and Wenqu, like a brilliant galaxy.
At this moment, Old Huang Long couldn't help but stand up and bowed to Yin Zhaoxian in return.
"No need to be so polite, Lord Yin!"
Old Long Yinghong smiled and led another person towards him.
"This one is Lord Qinglong."
Yin Zhaoxian bowed again to greet him. Qinglong, who was just surprised that Old Huanglong also stood up to return the greeting, was also a little overwhelmed and stood up to return the greeting. After that, the other dragon kings present did the same...
Not only Du Changsheng and others were dumbfounded, but all the dragons from the four seas present were also stunned.
