Early morning.
The sky was blue, and the Dragon Race’s sun hung high in the sky.
This sun made the sea shimr, and it seed as if there was a special dium penetrating it, reaching through the seawater, so that even the underwater cities thousands of ters deep had a faint glow.
On a certain island in the East Sea.
A courtyard identical to the one on Ning Zheng’s side, with an ancient well in the yard.
"Fish Wine City, has been occupied?"
Jiao Wuyu, as the Island Master here, held a fishing rod and fished towards the well opening, which connected to the boundless sea below.
Splash!
She gave a tug on the fishing rod, and a lively big fish flew out.
"Occupied by bandits from outside the city? There’s no need to check it out, as long as they follow the rules and pay tributes on ti."
"Yes." The old man with a turtle shell on his back beside her silently retreated.
Throughout history, the affiliates of the Dragon Race were often the Profound Turtle Race, distant relatives of the Divine Beast Black Tortoise.
After all, Profound Turtles have a long lifespan and can help manage Dragon Race affairs for a long ti, making them a royal retainer race.
Currently, Jiao Wuyu is also one of the stars of the Dragon Dynasty, managing a city region.
Just like how Jian Xin used to manage several cities, including Pingchang City, and would descend in Dharma Aspect if anything happened.
But this ti, Jiao Wuyu, who was in charge of managing this city area, was reluctant to descend in Dharma Aspect, being greatly irked by the Dragon Race’s internal matters!
"Where did Xi Rong take my daughter?"
Jiao Wuyu pondered in her heart.
When Xi Rong officially debuted with that Shadow Crocodile, waging war against the Human God, she knew who had ascended at the Blood Separation Flower Manor before.
Because this Shadow Crocodile was seen once before during the awakening incident of Li Youzhu.
At that ti, she thought the Blood Separation Flower family relied on so Demon Cultivator, but now it seems they depended on Xi Rong’s forces!
Of course, she didn’t think it was the main branch.
She estimated it was a secret sub-branch under them.
This manor had long secretly beco Xi Rong’s establishnt.
As for what those Blood Separation Flower ancestors ntioned, the so-called Qilin Child, in hindsight, it’s likely a synthetic semi-finished Immortal Beast left by the Xirong Divine Craftsman!
Even that so-called brother is likely a disciple under the Xirong Divine Craftsman.
"Unexpectedly, they covertly sided with the Xirong Divine Craftsman, even hiding it from their family ancestors."
Jiao Wuyu took a deep breath:
"After I awakened, I sensed sothing wrong with the manor; it was just that at the ti, I didn’t have the chance to investigate further and started avoiding the court’s pursuit."
Now, with her daughter taken, in her view, the Xirong Divine Craftsman had taken a fancy to her as the Ghost King.
During these hundred years of disappearance, her daughter should be safe and sound.
...
Likewise, it was early morning.
The first ray of sunlight penetrated into the sea, a faint halo of light.
The intense and scorching sunlight refracted in the seawater like layers of golden sunlight ripples, shining on the city’s buildings, and continuously stirring up ripples.
It had a peculiar sense of beauty.
"So beautiful."
"Fish Wine City, so beautiful."
"Exotic charm!"
"Wow, when we rebel, this place will turn into the Dragon Palace and rule the sea race across the world!"
"The Saints in the neighboring Xin Dynasty are too fierce now. If being the Human Emperor is not feasible, let’s beco the Dragon Emperor instead."
"The collapse of the combat power pyramid here presents the perfect opportunity for rebellion!"
"For all the rebels, we’ve got a part!"
...
A group of young blacksmiths chatted continuously.
The ocean scenery was overwhelmingly beautiful compared to the land.
Up to now, they found it unbelievable that a small city was suddenly opened for them to simulate governance?
With tens of thousands of live fish NPCs, in the future, won’t it be breeding, exploding troops, making them laborers, and becoming an army?
So newly online young blacksmiths wanted to run to find White Flower to listen to the next part of the "Ancestral Human Biography."
Unfortunately, Jiucai Rong chased them away, ordering them to work instead.
After all, the story should be heard by everyone together. How could you secretly listen to it in advance?
It was to be told at the bonfire party at night.
During the day, Ning Zheng strolled through the streets and went to check out the Red House and Brothel, increasingly feeling the sea race was marred with decay, with everything in disarray waiting to be rejuvenated.
As he wandered through the streets, other military and civilian folks shut their doors and windows, looking at this tall and mighty "Bone Demon Commander" in awe.
Ning Zheng found it uninteresting as well.
He didn’t stay long, directly returning to the manor, and made a trip near Xirong Academy’s square.

Fish Wine City was so dull; this place was more refreshing.
Sitting in a private room chair of a tavern, Ning Zheng stretched lazily in his seat.
Initially, he planned to buy a house nearby in his na.
Not far from the square of the "Statue of Liberty," living in the house could steadily gain experience.
But he was quickly startled by the astonishing property prices.
Soone so wicked had driven the real estate prices here so high!
A small hundred square ter courtyard astonishingly valued at millions of Magic Coins, even making a wealthy person like him feel a pinch.
Over thirty thousand Magic Coins per square ter.
A Five-Body Realm Great Perfection like Zhang Huaping might toil their whole life without affording even one square ter.
These house prices rivaled those of the Capital City!
People in the Capital have safe zones for grooming family successors.
What purposes do such high prices serve here?
To view the giant statue of the Xirong Divine Craftsman?
Ning Zheng griped, "Was my value always this high?"

The days of counting money were indeed comfortable.
By dusk, Ning Zheng planned to return ho.
...
The young blacksmiths’ work during the day was laborious but fulfilling.
Moving bricks, getting the job done!
The two hundred newcors also enjoyed the thrill of construction, counting Magic Coins in their hands happily, overjoyed.
