Only the White Lotus Sect, which blooms in many places in the Liang Kingdom and can invite deities, can catch the attention of the Imperial Family.
In the hall, besides the three Celestial Spirit Generals, there are also six Earth Evil Guards.
They are martial artists in the early stage of the Gang Condensing Realm, each leading a group of Imperial Guards.
Gu Yulong, based on ancient texts about the Ancient Giant Dragon, believes that with his martial arts cultivation as one of the Ten Gods in the Divine Realm and his profound expertise in the Celestial Spirit Child Skill, combined with these court troops, he can capture the Ancient Giant Dragon and bring it to the Imperial Palace.
When Gu Yulong arrived, the Celestial Spirit Generals and Earth Evil Guards all stood up and saluted.
Gu Yulong nodded, sat in the main seat, took a sip of tea, and began to instruct what actions should be taken next.
...
Su Que got up in the morning, went out for breakfast, and then returned to his room in the clinic to cultivate.
While he was cultivating, suddenly a spy knocked on the door and delivered a ssage.
—— Gu Yulong is leading a group of court forces towards the dock!
Receiving this information, Su Que prepared to set off.
...
Behind Gu Yulong and a group of court troops, there were also so young mbers of noble families and disciples of major sects, Luo Guanji among them.
Due to the strange events of the previous night, and having no particularly close friends around Luo Guanji, he did not tell anyone about it.
Because Su Que unintentionally injured him last night, his injuries were not severe.
After taking the True Profound Sect’s elixir, he recovered ninety percent and was able to act today.
Since it was soone close to the Emperor coming, Luo Guanji and the others knew there was a great opportunity but dared not ddle; they didn’t dare to take the at but hoped they could at least sip a little soup.
Precisely because soone close to the Emperor was coming, the noble families and major sects dared not oppose the court, so the Divine Realm experts of these noble families and major sects did not co to seize the opportunity.
Gu Yulong knew he was being followed and sneered inwardly.
He did not try to drive them away because he thought if he encountered the Ancient Giant Dragon, he could force these people to act as the vanguard, consuming the dragon’s strength.
In this way, capturing the Ancient Giant Dragon would require less effort.
Besides the people from noble families and major sects, so martial artists who heard the news were also following.
These martial artists, lacking strong backing or sufficient power behind their support, feared the pursuit of the court, noble families, and major sects if a conflict arose.
Therefore, they either wore masks or veils to hide their identities.
Su Que was among these martial artists.
He wore black martial attire and a conical hat given by a spy on his head.
The conical hat had a black curtain that concealed his face.
He bought a ferocious ghost mask in the city, replacing his Rakshasa Mask.
After all, he had acted several tis before while wearing the Rakshasa Mask.
Seeing the Rakshasa Mask might make people from the court, noble families, and major sects wary.
He quietly blended in with the martial artists, concealing all his True Qi and Divine Intent so that others couldn’t sense his cultivation.
Soon, everyone left the city and reached the dock.
Gu Yulong’s people had already prepared a large ship, waiting for the court troops.
Other noble families and major sects also prepared ships.
So noble families even took martial artists on board.
After all, when heading out to sea, unsure of what dangers lay ahead, they wanted these martial artists to pave the way for them.
If there truly was an opportunity and the martial artists attempted to take a share, they would directly kill them.
A while later, at sea outside Luo City, Gu Yulong’s ship led, with other ships following behind.
The fleet cut through the waves, sailing overseas, and soon the land was out of sight.
Looking around, they only saw the vast sea shimring with ripples, extending to the horizon; no islands were in sight.
Gu Yulong, dressed in elegant attire, stood at the bow, directing the helmsman.
Suddenly, he saw a touch of rainbow-colored light at the distant horizon.
"Go over there!" Gu Yulong pointed toward the rainbow light.
The helmsman imdiately turned the rudder, and the ship turned towards the rainbow-colored light.
The ships following Gu Yulong also turned uniformly.
After a sneer, Gu Yulong summoned several of his officers and instructed:
"Make the ships behind us sail ahead and head in that direction."
The officers listened, agreed, and sent their n, using lightweight skills to leap between ships, conveying the ssage to the trailing ships.
The people from noble families and major sects dared not defy, so they had the martial artists, including Su Que, set sail on three ships ahead.
They thought, even if there were dangers ahead, it would be these martial artists who suffered first, giving them ti to react.
As such, Su Que and the martial artists gathered on the three forward ships.
So martial artists, unsure of what dangers lay ahead, thought of jumping ship to leave, not wanting this opportunity.
However, the people from noble families and major sects prevented them, threatening to kill them if they tried to leave.
These martial artists, in fear, could only grit their teeth and stay, contemplating how to escape.
On the three ships in front, estimating at a glance, Su Que saw approximately a hundred martial artists.
He sensed that the strength ranged from the Qi Blood Realm to the Gang Condensing Realm.
He withheld his True Qi and Divine Intent, only emitting the aura of the ridian Opening Realm, concealing his true strength.
