372: Chapter 372 Azure Dolphin, Jiang Yaya Arrives
Aside from awe, these people were also curious about what this Heavenly King, who had ascended at Yunmeng Lake, actually looked like.
It seemed that due to the air pressure caused by the Heavenly King's breakthrough, the mist around the island had been dispersed, and the figure riding the Azure Blue Dolphin gradually became clear.
With black hair and icy pupils, wearing a white casual outfit, he looked just like an ordinary person without any special aura, but they all knew that the person before them was absolutely the Heavenly King.
At this moment, everyone felt panicked. They recognized that Azure Blue Dolphin—this Azure Blue Dolphin was actually the Heavenly King's mount!
"It's over, we're finished. We actually tried to capture the Heavenly King's mount." Captain Han's face turned pale, feeling that he might not live to see tomorrow's sun.
"Captain, what, what do we do?" The beautiful woman beside him was trembling. Catching the Heavenly King's mount and being caught red-handed, she was filled with regret. If she hadn't come, would she have avoided all this?
Tang Ping found it strange that these people were so afraid. Did he look that scary? Although a Heavenly King was indeed awe-inspiring, as long as they weren't provoked, Heavenly Kings and Heavenly Queens were generally not people who killed indiscriminately.
Why were these people so afraid?
Tang Ping naturally didn't know about what had just happened, and even if he did, he wouldn't say anything. After all, the Azure Blue Dolphin wasn't his mount. Back then, he had just casually scattered some ancient bloodlines, originally wanting to help Nie Yu develop the Yunmeng Safe Zone. It looked quite good now; the bloodline water beasts of Yunmeng Lake were sold far overseas.
The reason he came over was simply because he wanted to show off a bit. Yes, that's right, to manifest his holiness in front of people. Heh.
"What are you doing here?"
Tang Ping was just asking casually, but who knew that the group of people in front would immediately kneel down with a series of thuds.
"Heavenly King, spare us! We, we didn't know this Azure Blue Dolphin was your mount. Otherwise, even if we had ten times the courage, we wouldn't dare to offend you. Please spare our lives, Heavenly King; we are willing to offer all our assets as compensation!" Captain Han's forehead was covered in cold sweat, the fear of death in his heart reaching its peak. He was even afraid that the other party would vent their anger on his family.
"If you are still not satisfied, Heavenly King, I, I am willing to die to atone for my sins."
Tang Ping: ...
He wondered what was going on. It turned out they had mistaken this Azure Blue Dolphin for his mount. This Azure Blue Dolphin did indeed have a connection to him, but he wouldn't go around killing people over it. Otherwise, given that there were tens of thousands of bloodline water beasts in Yunmeng Lake, and who knew how many had been caught over the last hundred years, if he took revenge on everyone, he felt the population of Nie Yu's Yunmeng Lake would decrease by at least thirty percent.
"This Azure Blue Dolphin is not my mount; it just looked decent earlier, so I grabbed it casually." Tang Ping didn't intend to continue teasing these people. "Let me ask you something. In these five years, have any major events happened in the Yunmeng Safe Zone?"
Upon hearing the Heavenly King's words, everyone felt the shadow of death hanging over their heads instantly dissipate. After surviving the ordeal, the people kneeling on the ground felt almost exhausted.
Captain Han wiped the sweat from his forehead: "Replying to the Heavenly King, in the past five years, two major events have indeed occurred in the Yunmeng Safe Zone. The first is that the old master of the Wei family failed to break through to the Heavenly King level and has passed away. The Wei family is not having an easy time now; after all, the Wei family originally developed by relying on the cousin relationship between Old Master Wei and the Yunmeng Heavenly King."
"The second is the Ancient God Chamber of Commerce. Two years ago, a mysterious young lady arrived, and even the president of the Ancient God Chamber of Commerce had to be respectful. A powerful Heavenly King followed her closely as a bodyguard! I heard she came to the Yunmeng Safe Zone to wait for someone, but two years have passed, and there is still no news."
Captain Han continued to talk about some other minor matters, such as which families had conflicts, which family had a level six appear, and which family had an ancestor pass away.
Now that a hundred years had passed, those early generations who couldn't break through to the Heavenly King level were starting to pass away one after another. Some families had successors, while others were facing decline.
Besides these, the most talked-about topic in the Yunmeng Safe Zone was bloodline water beasts. Someone would accidentally capture a water beast with a powerful bloodline that could grow to be comparable to a level six Talent User, thereby soaring to success overnight.
Which family developed rapidly by relying on a water beast's breakthrough, or who accidentally found a rare bloodline water beast at the market—all sorts of things. Seeing that the Heavenly King was not impatient at all but rather listening with great interest, Captain Han recounted every detail one by one.
"Hmm, alright."
Tang Ping interrupted Captain Han; the rest were basically just ordinary trifles that didn't even have anything to do with level six.
"You are catching the Azure Blue Dolphin for breeding, right?"
"We wouldn't dare."
Tang Ping patted the Azure Blue Dolphin and then looked at the crowd: "Don't think about catching this Azure Blue Dolphin anymore. However, as for the matter of getting that Water Sovereign Dolphin pregnant, I have had a word with this Azure Blue Dolphin."
After thinking about it, Tang Ping felt that this Azure Blue Dolphin was not bad; keeping it as a subordinate would also be helpful to him later.
Then, a blue crystal suddenly appeared in his hand. Inside the blue crystal, a bloodline was clearly sealed. Both the crystal and the bloodline were top-tier items.
The blue crystal was tossed into the Azure Blue Dolphin's mouth. Following the Azure Blue Dolphin's cheer, its body actually grew larger at a speed visible to the naked eye!
Its aura also became stronger and stronger. Within a few breaths, it had broken through the shackles of its bloodline and reached the level six level. And once this Azure Blue Dolphin completely digested the bloodline, it would be at least at the Heavenly King level.
"The bloodline of this level six Azure Blue Dolphin is quite good. Consider it payment for the three hours you spent telling me stories."
As for their attempt to capture it, even if they had the intention, they lacked the power. After all, that Captain Han only had the strength of a late-stage Level Five.
Afterward, the Azure Blue Dolphin would dive into the depths of Yunmeng Lake to quietly digest the bloodline. By then, let alone any fishing teams, even if a Heavenly King or Heavenly Queen came, finding this Azure Blue Dolphin would be like looking for a needle in a haystack.
Once the Azure Blue Dolphin broke through, Tang Ping also planned to head to the Heavenly Mansion and the outer seas. Whether it was traveling to the Heavenly Mansion along the river connecting Yunmeng Lake to the Thunder Realm forbidden area, or heading to the outer islands, a water beast comparable to a Heavenly King would be of great help to him and could avoid quite a bit of trouble.
Afterward, Tang Ping turned into a stream of light and headed toward Yunmeng City.
The Azure Blue Dolphin controlled the water current, lifting the petite Water Sovereign Dolphin inside the box. It looked at it with disdain. Seeing the Water Sovereign Dolphin's fearful expression, it roared threateningly a few times, and then began the breeding process.
Soon, the Water Sovereign Dolphin let out a cheer. That resonance stemming from a high-level bloodline was far more pleasurable to her than physical contact.
Before long, the Water Sovereign Dolphin obediently returned to the box, looking like a young lady who had eaten and drunk her fill.
Captain Han and his group were still in a daze.
It wasn't until the Water Sovereign Dolphin impatiently slapped the box that everyone came to their senses.
"Why does it feel like a dream?" The beautiful woman patted her face.
The youth with the wolf-tail hairstyle climbed up from the ground: "level six bloodline! Oh my god, a level six water beast's bloodline! Brother Han, we're going to be rich!"
Yunmeng City. Tang Ping stopped in front of the city gate. Five years had passed, but not much had changed here.
