As Bai Yu flew lower and lower, the bead became larger and larger in Xu Taiping’s eyes. At the same time, through the somewhat transparent shell of the bead, one could faintly see the city and lights inside the bead.
“Young master, it is said that hundreds of thousands of years ago, this sea of dry stones was originally called the Azure Sea. But no one knows what changes occurred in the sea. Youdaoplaceholder1 all the sea water in the vast ocean disappeared, leaving only the dry stone mountains on the seabed and the huge clam pearls scattered everywhere.”
“They are called the Azure Sea’s lost pearls.”
“And after years of exploration, the people of later generations actually discovered thirty-six clam pearls among the hundreds of clam pearls that contained the secret realms of ancient ruins.”
“Among them, the one where the Old Dragon Court is located is the most famous one among the thirty-six clam pearls.”
“Because within this clam pearl lies the ruins of the Dragon Court that once ruled the Upper Clear Realm in ancient times. Many of the body tempering techniques of later generations of warriors were passed down from here.”
Just as Bai Yu was about to land on the ground and rush into the secret realm of that clam pearl, Lu Bugong roughly told Xu Taiping the origin of the Old Dragon Court.
“So the name Old Dragon Court has such an origin.”
After listening to Lu Bugong’s account, Xu Taiping said with a sudden realization on his face.
“Boom！ …”
Just then, Bai Yu “dived” into that huge clam pearl.
The next moment, Xu Taiping, who had originally seen darkness in front of his eyes, had his vision suddenly clear.
A city built attached to the huge ruins of the Dragon Court appeared in his line of sight.
“Patta …”
Xu Taiping and Lu Bugong successively landed on the ruins of a huge wall on the periphery of the city.
From above this broken wall of the newly built city below can be clearly seen
“Wide streets, brightly lit marketplaces, one tall building after another with signboards and banners hanging, and those cultivators with extraordinary bearing walking on the streets.”
However, compared to the entire secret realm of the Old Dragon Court, the area of this city only accounts for less than one percent of the Old Dragon Court.
And when Xu Taiping’s gaze fell on those cultivators, even just a casual glance would immediately draw an extremely sharp divine soul detection.
Xu Taiping, who hadn’t drunk the Hidden Immortal Brew, when swept by that divine soul detection, had the illusion of being punched heavily on the body without any guard.
“Young master, the cultivators in the Old Dragon Court are very vigilant. Do not look at them.”
Lu Bugong, who also Perceived the power of that divine soul detection just now, immediately reminded Xu Taiping.
“Thank you.”
Xu Taiping nodded and said thank you.
The vigilance of these cultivators in the Old Dragon Court far exceeded his imagination.
“The Dry Stone Sea has no rules. Even if you kill someone on the street, there won’t be people from the Immortal Mansion coming to like in other places. So these people have such a heavy sense of vigilance. You must not casually show hostility towards them.
Fairy Lingyue also reminded Xu Taiping and Bai Yu, who had already returned to the gourd, at this time.
“According to what you said, Young Master, the streets of the Old Dragon Court should be in chaos. Why does it look so orderly now？”
Just as Xu Taiping and Lu Bugong, who was holding Tingyun, jumped off the broken wall together, Bai Yu in the gourd suddenly asked Fairy Lingyue curiously.
“Because everyone is without rules and regulations, everyone may be your mortal enemy. Unless it is absolutely necessary, no one is willing to expose their true strength and cultivation base, so naturally they will not fight without any scruples.”
The Fairy Lingyue explained.
This point, in fact, even if the Fairy Lingyue didn’t say it, when Xu Taiping saw the orderly situation in the city, he had already guessed it.
“Everyone has a knife hidden in their bosom. The earlier one exposes oneself, the faster one will die.”
After falling to the ground in front of the city, Xu Taiping looked at the city gate in front of him and muttered to himself.
“Roar！ …”
And at this moment, a sound full of anger came from behind Xu Taiping.
Xu Taiping turned his head and saw that the sky above the ruins and relics behind him was suddenly covered by yellow sand, and a huge dragon head loomed in the sky full of yellow sand.
Oops, it’s the sandstorm dragon breath of the Old Dragon Court. Once involved, it will be washed into ashes by the dragon breath in the sandstorm!
After seeing the situation behind clearly, Lu Bugong exclaimed.
Immediately, he saw him pick up Lu Tingyun, rise into the air with his magic while urging Xu Taiping and saying:
“Young master, quickly enter the city. Sometimes even cultivators in the Asking Heaven Realm cannot escape unscathed from this sandstorm dragon breath！”
Xu Taiping nodded, took a small sip of the Hidden Immortal Brew into his mouth, and then used the Dou Zhuan Xing Yi Step to break through the air and leave.
“Bang！ ……”
Almost at the moment when Xu Taiping and Lu Bugong showed the pass order and entered the city, the heavy door engraved with runes was closed with a “bang” by the guards guarding the city.
And just before the city gate was closed, Xu Taiping even saw that there were were monks who had just entered the Old Dragon Court being involved by the sandstorm and finally turned into ashes under the dragon’s breath.
“The reason why the ruins in the Old Dragon Court have not been completely explored until now is because of this sandstorm dragon’s breath that may appear at any time.”
“If there is no complete preparation, no one dares to leave the city and rashly step into the unexplored area.”
Lu Bugong looked at the already closed city gate with lingering fear and said.
Xu Taiping nodded with lingering fear after hearing this.
“Father, can we go and see… see mother？”
Just then, after looking at a restaurant not far away called Yuechan Tower Lu Tingyun suddenly pulled Lu Bugong’s arm timidly and begged.
Obviously, Lu Tingyun’s mother, that is, the wife that Lu Bugong lost, was in this Yuechan Tower.
“Yun’er…”
Lu Bugong, with a face full of shame, didn’t know how to answer.
”Miss Tingyun, don’t worry. There are still two days left before the time you agreed with that person. Let me first go to the Yizhu Tower to pawn off some things on me, and then I’ll take you to see your mother.”
Xu Taiping smiled and reached out to gently pat Lu Tingyun’s shoulder.
”Really？”
”Really.”
Lu Tingyun was overjoyed.
”Young master, do you have a way to save my wife？”
Lu Bugong also had a look of surprise on his face.
”I can’t guarantee it, but I will do my best.”
Xu Taiping looked in the direction of the Yuechan Tower and secretly transmitted a voice to Lu Bugong.
”Thank you, young master！”
Lu Bugong forcibly suppressed the ecstasy in his heart and transmitted a voice to Xu Taiping to thank him.
Although the cultivation base revealed by Xu Taiping was far inferior to his, just based on that sword qi thunder, he believed that what Xu Taiping just said was by no means a big talk.
”First find a place to rest for one night. Tomorrow we will go to the Yizhu Tower and pawn off a few things.”
Xu Taiping then transmitted a voice to Lu Bugong again.
”Yes.”
Lu Bugong immediately picked up Lu Tingyun and stepped forward to lead the way for Xu Taiping.
Looking at Lu Bugong who was walking familiarly on the street, Xu Taiping once again rejoiced in his previous decision to recruit him. Having a helper who was familiar with the old Dragon Court could really save him a lot of trouble.
”By the way, young master.”
Lu Bugong, who was walking in front, suddenly turned his head and looked back at Xu Taiping. He asked Xu Taiping curiously through voice transmission：
What do you plan to pawn at Yizhu Tower tomorrow？
It seemed that he was aware that it was a bit abrupt for him to ask Xu Taiping like this, so he added an explanation –
Young master, I am very familiar with the pawnshops in the city and know what things can be pawned for a good price in what place.
Xu Taiping thought for a while and then nodded and said to Lu Bugong through voice transmission：
The corpse of a Di Huo Demon Seed.
There would still be many places where Lu Bugong would be needed next, and there was no need to hide some things.
Upon hearing this, Lu Bugong was first stunned, and then a look of horror appeared in his eyes.
……
The next day.
In front of Yizhu Tower.
Lu Bugong？ You want to see our building master？ Get lost, get lost! Our building master has no time to see you, a waste who sells his wife and children!
Just after indicating his intention to the guards at the door, Lu Bugong and Xu Taiping were driven out by the guards at the door.
