Chapter 321 South China Sea Dragon Palace
"Your Highness, we finally see you."

In the Nanling Yuantian Ancient Vein, in Li Zhi's temporary cave, Ao Xiao brought more than a dozen surviving dragons from the Wanlong Nest and knelt directly in front of Li Zhi. They looked desolate, like phoenixes with feathers shed, without a trace of the pride of the ancient royal family.

He was like a lost dog, exuding a strong air of decadence.

"Your Highness, that Saint Body Ye Fan has gone too far. We in the Ten Thousand Dragons Nest only killed some monks related to him outside. But he had no martial ethics and directly brought that human-demon to sweep our Ten Thousand Dragons Nest with the green bronze tripod of the Ancient Heaven. He even forced Her Highness the Princess to return to the ancestral planet for refuge with the help of the magic circle left by the ancient emperor." Another dragon monk from the Ten Thousand Dragons Nest complained indignantly.

It seemed that they had only killed people before, but did not destroy any major forces related to the Holy Body, which was already giving enough face to the human race.

But Ye Fan had no moral principles and went straight to exterminate the clan, killing countless innocent monks from the Ten Thousand Dragon Nest along the way.

"Your Highness, you have to make the decision for us." A group of monks from the Ten Thousand Dragons Nest felt very uncomfortable. This time they were defeated very unfairly and inexplicably, so many of them had indignant looks on their faces. After seeing Li Zhi, they seemed to have found a backer, and cried and shouted for Li Zhi to make the decision for them.

In fact, "take charge" can be replaced by another word, such as "revenge", which is probably what they really think in their hearts.

But no matter how these monks from the Ten Thousand Dragons Nest complained, Li Zhi never even looked at them.

The reason why he rescued them from Dongfang Ye was simply because he wanted to know how the dragon girl could give birth to a dragon son.

As if they sensed Li Zhi's indifference, the dragon cultivators remembered that Li Zhi was still a genuine ancestor king-level powerhouse. After they came to their senses, they immediately quieted down.

In fact, they learned the trick of "pretending to be pitiful" from humans, but they didn't expect that Li Zhi would not buy it at all.

Thinking about their outrageous behavior in front of Li Zhi just now, many dragon cultivators began to feel fear in their hearts.

Among the myriad ancient races, the division of ranks is an extremely strict matter.

Saints and monks below the level of saints have no chance of being on an equal footing.

Even if they were the descendants of ancient emperors, before they became saints, there were very few saint-level ancestor kings who would truly care about them.

After feeling Li Zhi's indifference at this moment, they suddenly realized that although this long-lived Taoist priest rescued them from the hands of the powerful men in heaven, he never said that he would protect them.

Even if one recalls carefully the attitude of Taoist Changshou towards the myriad ancient races, it seems to be even worse than that of the Holy Prince who was "in cahoots" with the human race.

Li Zhi's attitude towards the ancient tribes is not friendly at all.

Almost no ancient royal family was willing to get close to Li Zhi, even their Wanlong Nest.

He was more thinking about taking advantage of Li Zhi's identity rather than valuing Li Zhi as a person.

In panic, they suddenly remembered what the Dragon Girl had said after attending Li Zhi's sanctification ceremony: "Prince Jinlong is dead."

Now it seems that it was not that their princess said these words in anger because she hated Li Zhi, but it is possible that the real Prince Golden Dragon might have died.

Now, the Taoist sitting in front of them might just be a simple longevity Taoist of the human race.

Most of the cultivators in the Ten Thousand Dragons Nest suddenly felt that being rescued by Li Zhi was not necessarily a good thing.

Thinking of this, almost all the monks in the Ten Thousand Dragons Nest began to shiver.

The Taoist of Longevity is a real evil star, which is a fact recognized by all the ancient races.

The number of cultivators from various ancient tribes that he killed was far greater than the number of cultivators from ancient tribes that were killed by the human race’s holy body.

Finally, this group of dragon cultivators from the Ten Thousand Dragons Nest fell completely silent, and they didn't even dare to look up at Li Zhi.

After a long time, Li Zhi, who was sitting on a bluestone platform, finally asked, "Ao Xiao, tell me what the dragon son you mentioned is about?"

Ao Xiao was also the only dragon among this group of dragons who did not show any fear in front of Li Zhi, and his expression did not change from beginning to end. After seeing Li Zhi, he was still full of fanatical admiration.

Still regards Li Zhi as the real Golden Dragon Prince.

"To answer your question, Your Highness, I also happened to see the princess crying in front of the Chaos Dragon's Nest, and then I learned that you and the princess once gave birth to a child. Now he is still inside the dragon egg and has not been born, but he is inhaling and exhaling Chaos Qi every day to practice, and he has the Ancient Emperor's reverse scale as a companion. Once he breaks out of the shell, he will surely shake the world."

Ao Xiao told Li Zhi everything he knew.

Li Zhi couldn't help but think "Oh shit".

I feel like things are a bit too outrageous.

How come a child suddenly appeared?
And it’s the child born to him and the Dragon Girl?
Didn't he transform into the Golden Dragon Prince just for the inheritance and resources of the Ten Thousand Dragon Emperor? Why is this never-ending?
He didn't do anything to the Dragon Girl, so how come she laid eggs?
Is it so casual for dragons to lay eggs?

But soon, Li Zhi realized that the dual cultivation he had with the Dragon Girl back then was the true dual cultivation method for cultivators.

The harmony of Yin and Yang, the interaction between heaven and man, gives birth to life.

There is no need to engage in the most primitive animalistic communication like mortals.

But Li Zhi couldn't help but wonder, is the life born by the dragon girl his bloodline inheritance, or the bloodline inheritance of the golden dragon?
Or is it directly the bloodline of the True Dragon's elixir of immortality?
It is even possible that it is a completely new and special bloodline.

How much does the dragon son born by the dragon girl have to do with him?
Thinking of this, Li Zhi immediately started counting on his fingers.

However, all the secrets about the purple-gold dragon egg were empty, as if it did not exist at all, or perhaps the secrets about it had been erased from the world by someone with great magical power.

As for being able to calculate whether he and the dragon egg were father and son, Li Zhi still had no results.

In the end, Li Zhi had no choice but to give up the calculation.

Then he said to Ao Xiao, "You all have no place to stand on the Beidou Ancient Star now. I will give you two choices. One is to enter my temple and never leave. The other is to go to the South China Sea and establish your own new power, the South China Sea Dragon Palace, and start from scratch. If you choose the South China Sea Dragon Palace, I will personally select a site for you and set up a mountain protection formation so that you can live and reproduce safely in the South China Sea Dragon Palace and continue to grow the dragon race."

"This..." Many people showed hesitation.

But Ao Xiao said: "I am willing to take my people to the South China Sea to build the Dragon Palace. From now on, the Dragon Palace will only follow His Royal Highness Long Zi. Ao Xiao is willing to swear a blood oath."

After saying this, he swore a blood oath in public to be loyal to Li Zhi and Long Zi for life.

Seeing this, Li Zhi nodded slightly and said, "From now on, Ao Xiao is the Dragon King of the South China Sea Dragon Palace. Today, I will give you the "Nine Transformations of the True Dragon". I hope you will assist the Dragon King and manage the South China Sea Dragon Palace seriously. For three hundred years, you must lie dormant in the depths of the sea and not step out of the magic formation. After three hundred years, you can return to the world."

"Ao Xiao obeys the order." Ao Xiao said immediately.

However, a few of the others showed some hesitation. Without Li Zhi taking any action, Ao Xiao simply turned around and used his claws to crush them all.

"We pay our respects to the Taoist Lord of Longevity! We pay our respects to the Dragon King Ao Xiao!"

Even a fool could see that this was the team Li Zhi had prepared for the purple-gold dragon that had not yet been born.

Ao Xiao is undoubtedly the leader of this team.

Afterwards, Li Zhi waved his hand and led them to the depths of the South China Sea. Then, in an area with almost no sea beasts, he found an underwater mountain range where dragon veins converged, and set up a Ten Thousand Dragons Covering the Sky formation, as well as a four-layer Sky-deceiving formation pattern.

It is enough to make the forbidden area supreme masters ignore their existence during the dark turmoil.

At the same time, Li Zhi also left his mini dragon's nest in the Dragon Palace in the South China Sea as a treasure to guard the palace.

Of course, they must be rewarded with some holy soldiers to protect them.

Of course, the most precious of the rewards were the nine great runes of "Nine Transformations of the True Dragon". Li Zhi directly engraved them in Ao Xiao's mind and told him that only the Dragon King's lineage could practice this method.

After doing all this, Li Zhi left the South China Sea.

If you just lay it out casually and want it to take root and sprout, it will take hundreds or thousands of years for it to bloom and bear fruit.

On the way back to Nanling, Li Zhi saw many sacred islands in the South China Sea.

There are also some terrifying monsters in the sea.

Unfortunately, he didn't have so much time to travel around the South China Sea, otherwise he could have seen how many secrets were hidden in the ocean of the ancient Beidou star.

At the same time, rumors were spreading throughout the Eastern Wilds that the mysterious Taoist priest of longevity had asked the dragon girl of the Ten Thousand Dragons' Nest to give birth to a child for him.

Such heavy gossip directly eased the tense atmosphere.

Many ancient cultivators were observing Li Zhi's reaction.

Of course, many cultivators also set their sights on Huo Lin'er and Golden Goddess. As daughters of ancient emperors, everyone wanted to see how powerful their children would be.

This made Huo Lin'er and Golden Goddess so angry that they almost exploded.

In Tianzhi Village, Ye Fan also heard Heihuang and others talk about this matter.

Ye Fan said in disbelief: "You said that the purple-gold dragon egg in the Chaos Dragon Nest is actually the child of Li Zhi and the Dragon Girl?"

“Hehe, little Ye, I have to say that you are far behind Master Li in this regard.” Hei Huang smiled like an auntie, and then said seriously: “Little Ye, I think you should not go to the ancient starry sky road now. Let’s kidnap the Saint of Purple Mansion and let her give birth to a child for you, and then you can set off.”

Ye Fan's face turned dark instantly.

"Master Li is truly a role model for our generation. I, Li Tian, ​​have worked so hard but have not been able to catch up with an ancient girl, but Master Li has captured the Ancient Emperor's daughter without us noticing." After Li Tian sighed, he said to Ye Fan, "Ye Fan, you shouldn't have let go of that Golden Goddess before. After all, she is the daughter of the Ancient Golden Emperor. You almost stripped her naked, but you failed to execute her on the spot. In this regard, you should learn from Master Li."

"So, it was Li Zhi who finally rescued the people from Wanlong Nest?" Ye Fan didn't want to talk about having children at all, and quickly changed the subject.

"Just rescue them. They are just those people and can't cause any waves. I guess Taoist Li rescued them because of his relationship with that little dragon. When we went to the Ten Thousand Dragons' Nest that year, it was he who led the way for us." Heihuang said nonchalantly.

"Didn't Li Zhi go out to practice? How could he rescue those people so timely?" Ye Fan asked.

"It is estimated that Miss Xian'er walked out of the Seven Stars Dojo and directly alarmed Taoist Priest Li. You also know that when Miss Xian'er was studying with Fatty Duan, Taoist Priest Li used a saint incarnation to secretly protect her." said Heihuang.

"Since the person was rescued by Li Zhi, let's just forget it." Ye Fan said finally.

As his cultivation level increased, Ye Fan always felt that Li Zhi was shrouded in a layer of mysterious veil, making it difficult to see what Li Zhi looked like underneath the veil.

At the same time, inside the Qixing Dojo, everyone was gossiping about this matter.

In a viewing pavilion, Li Xianer, Jin Ming, Dong Qing, and the little Qilin were talking about this matter with great interest.

Jin Ming asked, "Sister Xian'er, does Master have other children besides you?"

"I know this, there must be one. The long-lived boss is a playboy, he will definitely not sire only one woman." The little Qilin beast answered first.

"Pa!" The back of the Qilin's head was immediately patted.

"Ouch, who hit me?" The little Qilin beast turned its head quickly, but Li Xian'er, Jin Ming and Dong Qing were sitting opposite it and it was impossible for them to reach out and hit the back of its head.

"Dad, since you're back, why don't you show up? Are you too embarrassed to see us?" Li Xian'er said to the empty void behind the little Qilin.

"Xian'er, things are not what you think. Dad tells you..." Li Zhi's voice rang in the ears of Li Xian'er and the others, but Li Zhi's real body did not appear.

In fact, Li Zhi did not come back at all. He just used the incarnation in the Taoist temple to transmit his thoughts through the air.

When a cultivator reaches the saint level, his supernatural powers are so vast that they cannot be compared to those at the king level.

The power of this supernatural power is not all reflected in combat capability. At least transmitting thoughts across domains is no longer a difficult task.

At this time, Li Zhi was sitting on the ancient Yuantian vein in Nanling Mountains and talking to Li Xianer and others in the Taoist temple in the southern region of Donghuang.

He could even project his limited strength over here.

After listening to Li Zhi's introduction, Li Xian'er and others said in disbelief: "How could this be?"

"That's the fact. I'm actually quite puzzled as well." Li Zhi said helplessly.

"So, strictly speaking, the child conceived by the Dragon Girl cannot be considered the father's bloodline? Is it like the legend that Hua Xu conceived Emperor Fuxi in Lei Ze?" Li Xian'er said curiously.

"I'm not sure whether it is exactly like this or not. But I feel that it is more like a life form outside of Taoism that is nurtured by the heaven and earth." Li Zhi said.

"Life outside the Tao?" Li Xian'er and others immediately showed doubts.

"The so-called life outside the Tao is life outside the coverage of the Heavenly Dao. They are born with the life that catches the escaping one and are not bound by any destiny. They can also be called people without destiny." Li Zhi said.

"Master, doesn't that mean that his potential is almost unlimited?" Dongqing said in surprise.

"Many disasters are probably the norm. If you are not welcomed by the world right after you are born, it is hard to say whether your so-called potential can be realized." Li Zhi said.

"Dad, do you want to do something?" Li Xianer asked.

"I can't do anything. Unless I can surpass the emperor and become an existence that the heaven and earth cannot restrain, it is difficult to defy fate." Li Zhi said.

"What a poor little creature." said the little Qilin beast.

At this moment, Li Zhi's spiritual consciousness also left the Taoist temple.

After making sure that Li Xian'er was not affected, he felt much more relieved.
