Fengyang County, Commandery Governor’s Mansion
The grand main hall was decorated with solemnity and majesty.
This was completely different from the luxurious extravagance of the previous governor’s mansion, highlighting the style difference between the current Commandery Governor, Yu Tongguang, and his predecessor.
As a forr leader of the Border Army, Yu Tongguang was more pragmatic.
He also placed more emphasis on military regulations.
At this mont, the bodyguards around the governor’s mansion stood tall, with their armor and swords glinting coldly.
Inside the mansion, Yu Tongguang sat grandly at the main seat.
Beside him, Qing Yu Daoist wore a smile as he made arrangents on his behalf.
Standing before them were several sturdy martial artists, all brought by Yu Tongguang from the military, confidants who had served in the Border Army for many years.
"The Gu Family has lost the official tribute ship and is on the verge of collapse, but still, we must guard against their desperate acts. General Chao Yun, for these few days, I rely on you to keep a close watch on the Gu Family. If the Gu Family shows any signs of unrest, arrest them on charges of losing the tribute and fleeing together and hold them accountable, life or death notwithstanding!"
The robust Chao Yun bowed with a smile, saying, "Rest assured, sir. With watching, the Gu Family has nothing left to leverage and won’t cause any waves!"
The others all nodded in agreent.
Chao Yun was a grandmaster who had erged from the path of body forging, additionally holding an official post, and in this Commandery City, could daunt spirits and ghosts alike. With him suppressing them, the Gu Family was like at on the chopping board, waiting for their entire clan to be confiscated and held accountable.
"Next up is just the Qi Family!"
At this mont, Qing Yu Daoist gently stroked his beard.
"The Qi Family is deeply intertwined with the nobility in Haojing City, so we must be cautious of them calling for reinforcents!"
He did not ntion the Yu Family.
Because the Yu Family had long been connected with the Commandery Governor’s Mansion.
The Yu Family and the Yu Family originally had a layer of connection unknown to others.
Both descended from the forr Prince Mian.
However, the Yu Family was overtly the legitimate line, while the Yu Family was a direct lineage that had gone far away to avoid the downfall of their family.
Now, it was difficult to distinguish between legitimacy and cadet line, but it did not influence the two families joining hands.
Yu Tongguang’s expression was indifferent, waving his hand: "As long as this matter is accomplished, Haojing’s backlash is nothing. There are noble figures who will settle it for us!"
Hearing this, Qing Yu Daoist smiled slightly and said,
"In that case, it’s even easier to handle. Later on, when I ask the Commandery Princess to order Chief Patrol Officer Qi Yuansi to suppress the bandits in the Shuangfeng Mountain Range and clear the refugees, without those three thousand elite county soldiers, capturing the Qi family won’t be difficult!"
Beside them, a tall, blue-clad guard frowned and said, "Sir, we must have a legitimate reason!"
He was Yu Lei, a personal guard selected by Yu Tongguang from the military. After saving Yu Tongguang’s life, he was brought along and granted the surna Yu, which Yu Lei took pride in.
Gifted in his own right, he was a capable assistant under Yu Tongguang, also the main candidate for replacing Qi Yuansi as the Chief Patrol Officer.
Hearing this, Qing Yu Daoist said lightly, "Harboring river pirates, raising death warriors, usurping and using official tribute porcelain, isn’t this a cri? If that’s not enough, there’s still the option of hoarding armor for ulterior motives!"
On the main seat, Yu Tongguang remained expressionless, but his face visibly carried a hint of a smile.
Solve these troubleso three major families, and then we can be at ease exploring the water eye deep in the Bai Shui River.
"Without the Dragon Pearl, if all else fails, I can try using Dragon Blood!"
A smile floated in his eyes, thoughts whirling with ambition.
Dealing with that White Flood Dragon didn’t require him to take action personally, there was already soone to do it for him. All he needed was to petition the court for a decree.
He believed he would soon no longer remain in Fengyang County for much longer.
Pausing slightly, he continued: "Qing Yu, handle that warlock in the Qi Mansion. This matter must be foolproof!"
Qing Yu Daoist nodded slightly.
"Rest assured, Mr. Dong. With heaven’s timing, geographic advantages, and human harmony all within our grasp, success is guaranteed!"
On the main seat, the shadow over Yu Tongguang’s face vanished, and he laughed, simultaneously raising the wine cup from the table beside him, "Gentlen, let us first drink this cup of celebratory wine!"
"Once this grand feat is accomplished, we will ascend to even greater heights, achieving titles, ranks, and even greater fortunes!"
The others all rose, loudly exclaiming, "Congratulations, my lord, for a swift victory!"
Everyone drank in unison and then began moving into action.
...
Beneath the Dragon-locking Dam, deep in the water eye
The surging flood was turbulent, and the Dragon Pearl within caused an intense layer of frost to envelop the White Flood Dragon, the biting cold perating throughout the entire water eye.
Around its body, pitch-black runic divine chains trembled intensely in the void, countless golden electric lights erged, transforming into thunder and fiercely bombarding the White Flood Dragon’s scales.
These runes were sealing the Flood Dragon’s magical power while also having a pulling force that could leverage the endless spiritual chanism from the depths of the water eye to seal the Flood Dragon, depleting its magical power slowly.
It was like slowly boiling a frog in warm water, gradually wearing down the Flood Dragon’s magical power, until, when fully depleted, the Flood Dragon would perish alive, trapped here.
At that mont, upon obtaining the origin within the Dragon Pearl, the White Flood Dragon suddenly activated the secret technique and erupted violently, completely disregarding its internal weakness, forcibly mobilizing the origin, causing an infinite spiritual chanism to explode open, forcefully opening up the divine iron locked deep into its Dragon Bone. The gold runes on each piece of divine iron began to break apart under the pressure from the spiritual chanism.
A grand spiritual chanism continuously expanded.
"Open for !"
Accompanied by a wild and furiously angry Dragon’s Roar, boundless Thunder Light abruptly blossod from the surface of the White Flood Dragon, along with waves of painful wails from the chains’ intrinsic golden thunder, while countless blood water fell from above, and the next mont, the entire depth of the water eye seed to chronicle ten back-to-back explosions, boundless Wind Thunder erupted out.
Outside the water eye, Huang Yuan and Yellow Snake, the two Well Dragon Kings, were leading several teams of Demon Soldiers inspecting the restrictions surrounding the water eye, their expressions solemn.
Simultaneously, both of them had an Official Seal in their mouths.
It was the Commandery Governor Yu Tongguang’s seal, using it to suppress the pervasive Dragon and Tiger Qi surrounding them while preparing to break the surrounding restrictions.
But at that mont, the two Well Dragon Kings and the many Spirit Monsters suddenly changed their expressions drastically, seeing the violent tremors from the depth of the water eye below, resembling an Earth Dragon turning over.
The Earth itself trembled.
The next instant, accompanied by an earth-shattering Dragon’s Roar, countless dense cracks appeared on the light shield pervading the water eye, then the entire light shield exploded into pieces, a terrifying white figure dozens of feet long burst from the underground, carrying boundless Wind Thunder.
Fengyang County, above the Dragon-locking Dam.
In the suddenly appearing black clouds against the clear, cloudless sky, a surge rapidly swept across the area near Fengyang County. At that mont, the majestic Bai Shui also surged violently, the once desolate Divine Office today seed to suddenly awaken.
The winds and clouds surged, and just a mont later, raindrops gathered from the sky overhead.
