Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

At the Clear Moon Lake.

Countless waves were rushing to the sky, forming walls as high as a few feet, looking like the claws of a demon that was ready to attack the ground anytime.

Roar!

The strong waves roared in anger. It was as if the world had lost its colors.

The usually calm Clear Moon Lake was unlike its usual self. It was almost as if there were two extremes. It was going wild and terrifying the observers.

The waves were unstoppable. Dark clouds were starting to appear in the sky along with thunder. It seemed like heavy rain was about to fall.

In the air, many orbs of light flew past from time to time. There were some spells cast on the lake, preventing the waves from attacking.

The cultivators were rushing over from all over the place. Shock and concern were evident on their faces.

Although the cultivators did cultivate, they did not have the ability to control natural disasters, not unless they had Immortalized. The lake was boundless. The situation was severe. It looked like it was impossible for them to repress the water level.

Dong!

Meanwhile, a string was plucked. The sound of the string resonated in the air, muffling the sound of the water.

One could see two figures approaching, hovering on top of the water as the sound of the string was vibrating like the waves.

“One song, Listen to the Tide!”

Instantly, the water was parted into halves. The vigorous waves grew slightly calmer along with the music.

Dong! Dong! Dong

The music continued without stopping while the water gradually spread. The water level slowly fell. However, their fear lingered on as layers of waves would still rise from time to time.

“It’s the Sect Master of the Linxian Palace.”

“One song and the waves were calmed! Cultivators having passed their Natural Tribulations are so scary!”

“Don’t let down our guard! Let’s take this time to start the formation. The waves are unsteady, we have to repress it!”

Many of the cultivators made a respectful gesture at Yao Mengji. They all respected him.

The Linxian Palace was one of the few sacred lands in the Ganlong Immortal Dynasty. Of course, his reputation was renowned.

Meanwhile, an orb of light shot up and landed beside Yao Mengji.

“Greetings to Brother Yao, Manyun.”

“Holy Emperor,” Yao Mengji and Qin Manyun returned the gesture.

The three of them smiled. Since they were all working for the expert, there was no ranking among them.

Yao Mengji asked curiously, “Have you been visiting the expert lately?”

“I haven’t seen him for a long time.” The Holy Emperor said. He had a hint of fear and terror in his eyes. “Brother Yao, you may not know about this. My entire family went through a life-and-death situation. If it wasn’t for the expert, you wouldn’t be seeing me now.”

Yao Mengji widened his eyes and said, “Huh?”

“The other day, when the expert was preaching at the Xia Kingdom, the Luck of mankind was prosperous. I was being held hostage by a Mosquito Demon that came from the Immortal land. It had the cultivation of an Immortal, and yet it naively wanted to suck the expert’s blood!” the Holy Emperor paused there, slightly terrified while finding it funny.

“It wanted to suck the expert’s blood?” Yao Mengji and Qin Manyun’s faces looked strange. They said in unison, “It was asking for death!”

“I know right? It was easily killed by the expert.” The Holy Emperor could not help smiling. He then sighed and said, “Unlike you who has an Immortal ancestor, I don’t know if I still have the right to continue visiting the expert.”

“Holy Emperor, I’m guilty of this. We haven’t visited the expert in a long time,” Yao Mengji said and shook his head bitterly.

The Holy Emperor paused. “Why so?”

Yao Mengji was half crying and smiling, “To be honest with you, my ancestor isn’t doing so well. Not only did she not help us, we gave her many good things but we haven’t heard back from her since then. I’m too ashamed to meet the expert.”

Instantly, the Holy Emperor and Yao Mengji felt sorry for one another.

“Actually, the expert has hinted to me a few times that regardless of how capable we are, each of us has different uses. We just have to help the expert solve his problems.” The Holy Emperor paused. He then continued, “Let’s talk about this current incident. If it really exploded, it’d affect the mood of the expert. Therefore, we must repress it!”

“Exactly! I rushed here because of this as well,” Yao Mengji nodded seriously. He glanced at the water level. “The Clear Moon Lake’s acting strange indeed.”

First, it was the increase of fishes. Suddenly, it threatened to flood. It was almost impossible to be of a natural cause. Something must have happened.

“There are rumors saying that the Dragon King’s agitated,” the Holy Emperor frowned as he said with a concerned look. “If this is true, then it’s not something we can get involved with.”

Even if it was merely a dragon, the cultivators could not afford to offend them. Even the normal Immortals had no right to offend them.

However, dragons had been lost in time.

Qin Manyun frowned. “Since it’s just a rumor passing around, we shouldn’t believe it.”

Meanwhile, a white small carp jumped into the lake. Its red tail slightly wiggled as it swam toward the bottom of the lake.

The endless waves seemed as if they did not exist in its eyes. They caused no threat to it. Its speed was very fast, swimming toward the Eastside. Soon, it followed the current to a golden gate. Without hesitation, it rushed into it.

A gigantic golden palace was located at the bottom of the lake. Five colored fences were surrounding the palace with seaweeds swaying in the water. Countless pearls as big as human heads were seen everywhere, illuminating the surroundings. Bubbles were forming from time to time in the azure blue sea. It was very beautiful.

However, the originally calm waves were no longer calm. Layers of waves were rushing out violently, terrifying countless fishes and prawns.

Countless crabs and lobsters were surrounding the palace. They had human bodies with claws clutching pitchforks as they patrolled around. As if shocked by the waves, some of them retracted their heads, standing at the same spot, transfixed.

Inside the palace, a long-bearded elderly man was full of rage, his eyes almost burning in flames. He was very anxious!

“Why do I even need you for it?” he growled, his entire body shaking. “It’s been a month and you still can’t find a trace of the Seventh Princess? How can this be!”

“Dragon... Dragon King” A tortoise with a heavy shell and small head gulped anxiously. He said in a small voice, “According to the trace, the Seventh Princess was swimming toward the Clear Moon Lake. Then, she just disappeared.”

“What do you mean by disappeared?” Dragon King’s eyes widened, his voice loud like thunder. It caused the water level to rise in the sky. It was very scary.

He picked up the Tortoise Demon and asked, “You tell me, what do you mean by disappeared?”

The Tortoise Demon shivered. “Dragon King, perhaps...perhaps the Seventh Princess went offshore to play?”

“After crossing the Heavenly Gate, how would she have the energy to play?” The Dragon King shivered all over. He scoffed, “How’s the gathering of the prawn soldiers?”

The Tortoise Demon replied, “There are five thousand of them already.”

Both his eyes reddened. “Ask them to get prepared. Follow me to the Clear Moon Lake. If you don’t find my daughter, I’ll flood the ordinary realm!”

By the side, a teenager in a white shirt walked forward, his eyes sparkling. “Father, please, allow me to lead the soldiers. If my Seventh Sister is hurt in any way, I’ll make the ordinary realm pay! Even if I’m punished by Heaven!”

The Tortoise Demon tried to wipe away his cold sweat. Just as he was about to accept the order, a voice rang in the air, “Daddy, I’m back!”

Instantly, the water around the palace stopped swirling.

Everyone listened closely. They thought they were hallucinating.

The little carp turned around and instantly transformed into Dragin. She walked into the palace and called out again, “Daddy!”

“Dragin! My daughter!” The Dragon King’s lips quivered. He carried Dragin in his arms. He thought he was dreaming.

By the side, the teenager in white was delighted as well. “Seventh Sister, it’s really you! You’re really back!”

“Ha-ha! Fifth Brother, it’s me!” Dragin smiled from ear to ear. She then said hastily said, “Daddy, stop the flood. Don’t cause any trouble!”

“Trouble? I’ve endured all kinds of tribulations, from a small shrimp to a bigshot. Why should I be afraid to cause trouble?” The Dragon King said arrogantly. He was in a great mood. “Since my Seventh Daughter’s back, stop the flood!”

The teenager in white could not help asking, “Seventh Sister, where have you been? We were so worried.”

“I went to the ordinary realm. It’s so interesting there.” Dragin smiled.

“Don’t run around next time. At least get someone to follow around you,” the Dragon King said lovingly. He continued, “What’s so fun about the ordinary realm? You must be starving. I’ll have a seafood feast prepared for you.”

“Sigh, I’ve been eating seafood since young. I’m bored of it. The food in the ordinary realm’s great!” Dragin waved it off. “Since you’ve ended the flood, I won’t stay any longer. I should go back. Daddy, Fifth Brother, goodbye!”

“What? Goodbye? Where are you going?” The Dragon King was dumbfounded. He pulled Dragin closer and reminded her, “This is your home! You just came home and you haven’t told us anything!”

Dragin said, “I should go back to finish up my chores. I still have to do the dishes tonight.”

To stay in the palace for a seafood feast? It was nowhere close to the delicious dishes made by the expert. It was getting dark outside. She would need to hurry to be back for dinner.

With that in mind, she seemed even more anxious.

However, what she said sounded like thunder to the ears of the Dragon King and her Fifth Brother.

Chores? Do the dishes?

The Dragon King’s eyes reddened.

At the palace, Dragin was so precious that if they put her in the mouth, they were afraid of melting her. If they put her on the palm, they were afraid of losing her. Even when she ate, people were serving her. And yet, she was doing someone else’s chores?

What had she been through this month?

He could not help picturing the image of Dragin being abused in the ordinary realm. She was probably manipulated by the ordinary people to do all kinds of chores. If she did not obey them, they would probably whip her. Thus, she became this way eventually.

She was still so young, she must have been bullied by the others!

How cruel! How cruel!

The Dragon King did not dare to think any further. The more he thought about it, the more scared he was.

By the side, Dragin’s Fifth Brother clenched his fists. He was trembling with anger, exuding an air of rage.

He looked at Dragin and said with a hoarse voice, “Seventh Sister, it’s my fault for not protecting you better.”

The Dragon King’s eyes were filled with tears as he scoffed angrily, “Tortoise Chancellor, continue to recruit soldiers. Gather ten thousand prawn and crab soldiers!”

He ruffled Dragin’s tiny head as he painfully said, “Dragin, don’t be scared. You’re home now. You don’t have to do chores anymore. Tell me where this person who made you do the chores lives. I’ll capture him no matter where he is. Then, he’ll be in charge of all the toilets in the Eastern Sea!”
