　　Joking？
　　Go　to　hell！
Can you be any more shameless?
　　Kirin was so angry that his face turned green.
　　This old thing not only didn’t calculate accurately, but also blamed others and said he had no brains. He was really shameless.
Kirin was angry in his heart and said displeasedly, “Senior, now that there are powerful enemies all around, you are joking about Azure Dragon’s life. This is very excessive, do you know that?
　　Pa！
True Man Longbrow slapped the table and said angrily, “What, I’m not allowed to joke?” You’re not convinced, right? If you’re not convinced, fight me!
　　”You——”
　　Kirin was so angry that he thought, if I could beat you, I would have already made a move.
　　“All right, all right, senior, don’t bother with Qilin.” Cao Yuan gave Qilin a wink and said, “Quickly apologize to the senior.”
　　“Your　Highness,　he…”
“Apologize!” CaoYuan shouted.
Just as Qilin said, now there are powerful enemies all around and experts are needed to help. In case the Long-browed True Man is angered and this old thing leaves, it will be troublesome.
　　Ye Qiu smiled and said, “The True Man is not a stingy person. I think you don’t need to apologize to him, just offer him a toast.”
　　The Long-browed True Man played the elder, pointed to his cup, and said to Qilin with a slant of his eyes, “Pour the wine.”
　　Qilin poured a full glass of wine for the Long-browed True Man and secretly cursed, better drink to death.
　　“Hand me the wine.” The Long-browed True Man began to put on airs.
　　Qilin had no choice but to hand the wine glass to the Long-browed True Man’s hand.
　　The Long-browed True Man took the wine glass, drank it in one gulp, and then snorted twice： “That’s more like it.”
　　Cao Yuan immediately changed the topic and pointed to the middle-aged man and said, “Ye Qiu, let me introduce you. This is the Green Dragon Envoy of our Dragon Gate.”
　　Ye Qiu looked at the Green Dragon twice and couldn’t help but wonder in his heart. Is this unremarkable guy really the number one master of the Dragon Gate？
　　“Hello, I’m Ye Qiu.” Ye Qiu took the initiative to say hello.
　　The Green Dragon nodded slightly and said, “There is still some progress. It’s a little stronger than before.”
“Before?” Ye Qiu was puzzled.
　　Cao Yuan smiled beside him and said, “The last time you wiped out the Jiangzhou branch of the Witch God Sect, Qinglong and I were watching not far away. Originally, we were going to let Qinglong take action to help you, but unexpectedly you solved it yourself.”
　　Ye Qiu was suddenly shocked.
　　If it wasn’t for Cao Yuan’s own words, he really wouldn’t have known.
“So, for that test on me, His Highness the Ninth Prince knew everything the whole time. Fortunately, I didn’t have disappoint His Highness the Ninth Prince. Otherwise, my little life would be gone.
　　Cold sweat broke out on Ye Qiu’s back.
　　Qinglong said, “You did well that time, but you were still too inexperienced. A fall into the pit, a gain in your wit. I hope that in the future, when you encounter things, don’t be impulsive and think twice before acting.”
　　Ye Qiu understood that what Qinglong said was about that test, and both he and the Dragon King had fallen into Dong Chen’s trap.
　　Fortunately, in the end, they still killed Dong Chen and wiped out the Jiangzhou branch of the Witch God Sect.
　　”Thank you for the reminder. I will pay attention to it in the future.” Ye Qiu said gratefully.
　　At this time, the Long-browed True Man looked at Qinglong and asked, “Did you fight with Xiao Jiu？”
　　”Hmm.” Qinglong responded with a hmm.
　　”When？”
　　”A　month　ago.”
　　”You lost？”
　　”Hmm.” Qinglong responded with a hmm again, and then said, “I lost by half a move.”
　　Hiss——
　　Ye Qiu sucked in a breath of cold air.
　　You know, the Champion Marquis is the number one master on the Dragon Ranking, but Qinglong actually only lost by half a move under Xiao Jiu’s hands. This is too abnormal！
　　“If it weren’t for worrying about the safety of His Highness the Ninth Thousand Years, I wouldn’t have lost to Xiao Jiu that time.” Qinglong’s tone was full of dissatisfaction.
　　“You look down on Xiao Jiu.” said True Man Changmei dissatisfiedly： “That bastard Xiao Jiu, he actually let you off, which makes me so angry.”
　　Qinglong raised his brows and said unhappily： “What do you mean, True Man？ Are you questioning my strength or do you think Xiao Jiu showed mercy to me？”
　　“If he didn’t show mercy to you, do you think you could walk out of the Northern Realm intact？” said True Man Changmei： “In the last Dragon Ranking competition, the two of us, me and that old Taoist from Wudang Mountain, joined forces and still couldn’t withstand three moves from Xiao Jiu, and yet you only lost to him by half a move. Do you think that’s possible？”
　　Qinglong suddenly woke up.
　　After coming back from the Northern Realm last time, he felt that there was something wrong with his battle with Xiao Jiu.
　　At that time, he couldn’t figure out where the problem was.
　　Now hearing the words of True Man Changmei, he finally understood.
Although he was the number one master of the Dragon Gate, the strength of True Man Changmei and the leader of Wudang Mountain would definitely not be weaker than his. The two old guys joined forces and only lasted three moves under Xiao Jiu’s hands. How could he possibly only lose by half a move?
　　“Why did Xiao Jiu show mercy to me？” Qinglong was very puzzled.
　　“Pig brain.” said True Man Changmei angrily: “Don’t you understand that even if you don’t consider the monk’s face, you should consider the Buddha’s face？”
　　“The True Man means that Xiao Jiu showed mercy to me because of His Highness the Thousand Years Old？” Qinglong was even more confused and said, “As far as I know, His Highness the Thousand Years Old and the Champion Marquis don’t have much friendship.”
　　The Long-Browed True Man snorted coldly： “Cao Yuan indeed has no friendship with that person, but that person wants to be Cao Yuan’s brother-in-law.”
　　Brother-in-law？
　　Everyone　was　stunned.
　　Could it be that Xiao Jiu’s sweetheart is Zhuque？
　　The Long-Browed True Man then said to Cao Yuan： “Although I don’t like that kid Xiao Jiu, I have to admit that he is a hero in this world. Zhuque marrying him is a perfect match of talent and beauty, a match made in heaven.”
　　“Moreover, this is also extremely beneficial to the development of the Dragon Sect.”
　　“I think you can consider this marriage.”
　　Cao Yuan smiled bitterly and said： “Senior, you don’t know. It’s not that I don’t agree to this marriage, but my younger sister doesn’t like Xiao Jiu. What can I do？”
　　“Really? Zhuque doesn’t even look down on Xiao Jiu?”
　　The Long-Browed True Man didn’t believe it.
　　Cao Yuan said： “Zhuque once said that as long as the Dragon Sect doesn’t unify the world, she won’t get married.”
　　The Long-Browed True Man showed a respectful look and sighed： “Cao Yuan, Cao Yuan, your younger sister is not simple！ If she were a man, the poor Taoist would definitely accept him as a disciple and let him succeed me in taking charge of Longhu Mountain in the future.”
　　Ye Qiu rolled his eyes on the side.
This old thing is to deceive people again.
　　“Alright, let’s not talk about this anymore. Let’s talk about business.” Cao Yuan asked Qinglong, “Is everything done？”
　　“It’s done.” Qinglong replied, “Tonight at midnight, we will have a decisive battle in the maple forest.”
　　“Good.” Cao Yuan then asked, “How many people are on the other side?”
　　Qinglong answered, “I don’t know the exact number. I guess there are about five or six people, and their strength should be comparable to that of the experts on the Dragon Ranking. Oh, not counting the Strange Granny of Southern Yunnan and the Snake King.”
　　“There’s no need to worry about these two. One is dead and the other has fled.”
　　Cao Yuan didn’t explain much and said to the Long-browed True Man, “Senior, please help me do a divination to see if the battle situation tonight is favorable for us？”
　　“Okay.”
　　The Long-browed True Man took out three copper coins again and threw them with his right hand.
　　Immediately, the three copper coins rotated rapidly in the air, making a whistling sound.
　　Half a minute later.
　　Pa！
　　The three copper coins landed on the table, arranged in a straight line.
　　The Long-browed True Man laughed loudly and said, “It’s a very auspicious omen.”
　　Hearing this, Ye Qiu and Cao Yuan looked at each other.
　　The hearts of both of them sank to the bottom.
　　This old thing’s divination is not reliable. It has to be listened to the opposite way. The very auspicious omen corresponds to a very inauspicious omen.
　　Could it be that the heavens are going to destroy the Dragon’s Gate？
