291: Great Elder: Can I go to Dragon Palace? !

Lan Kun stepped forward, bowed slightly, and said in a low voice, "Dragon King, we mean no offense. We are a team from the Special Affairs Handling Bureau of the Dragon Country."

He paused, then continued, "Our team is specifically responsible for dealing with the frequently appearing Yao Beasts and other Outliers that have been harming human nations and posing a great threat to people.

Therefore, we came today because we saw an unusual phenomenon in the sky and suspected it was related, so we took the liberty to investigate. If there is anything inappropriate, we hope Dragon King will be lenient and spare us this time."

Ao Guang was stunned when he heard this, and he murmured to himself, "Mortal officials?"

He was, of course, aware of the numerous Yao Beasts on the ground, but he had not expected these people to be dispatched by the Mortal world's government.

"Since you are Mortal officials, then so be it. This is a one-time exception; it will not happen again."

Ao Guang's voice carried a hint of majesty, making people dare not easily disobey.

Seeing Ao Guang motion for them to retreat, the Shrimp Soldiers and Crab Generals who had captured Wang Cao and others put away their weapons and then silently departed.

Lan Kun's heart trembled, and his face lit up with joy.

He immediately bowed again to express his gratitude: "Thank you for your mercy, Dragon King. We will certainly abide by your teachings in the future and never offend again."

Xin Mulan, who was beside him, pouted and glanced at Ao Guang, seemingly wanting to say something, but ultimately did not speak.

Jin Meiting, Qin Zhe, and the other five thanked Ao Guang in unison, "Thank you, Dragon King..."

Jin Meiting, Qin Zhe, and the other six gently exhaled, but their eyes were still slightly tense, and they gazed at the Dragon King with trepidation, secretly relieved that they had not been subjected to difficulties.

However, they keenly sensed that Ao Guang seemed to have more to say.

Ao Guang's voice came like a booming bell: "Since you are officials from the Mortal world, I do not wish to make things too difficult for you. But there are some things you should know."

Lan Kun looked at Ao Guang with a solemn expression and respectfully replied, "Dragon King, please speak..."

Ao Guang continued, "Next, those immortal cultivation Sects and immortal cultivation families hidden in the dimensional Small Worlds will likely reappear in the human world."

"This time, thanks to Li Mu, if it weren't for Li Mu, our East Sea Dragon Palace would not have been able to break through the Seal so quickly."

As he spoke, Ao Guang's eyes showed gratitude towards Li Mu.

Immediately after, Ao Guang stated firmly, "Subsequently, I will control the rainfall of the Dragon Country at the fastest speed and restore my divine omnipotence."

Upon hearing this, everyone's mood became heavy, realizing that the challenges they were about to face might be more severe than imagined.

"Dragon King, how should we deal with the appearance of these immortal cultivation Sects and immortal cultivation families?" Lan Kun asked.

Ao Guang pondered for a moment and replied, "You need to be prepared, as the future situation may become complex. In addition, Li Mu has been kind to my Dragon Palace, so if you meet him, you must not make things difficult for him."

Lan Kun nodded. How could they possibly make things difficult for Li Mu? They were always trying to curry favor with him.

"We will return immediately and report the situation that Dragon King informed us of today to the Grand Elder."

Ao Guang nodded, "Hmm, you may go!"

Lan Kun and the others nodded in agreement, understanding that they must treat the upcoming changes with caution.

After Ao Guang finished giving his instructions, Lan Kun and his group bid farewell and left.

They knew that ahead of them lay a journey full of unknowns and challenges...

.........

Lan Kun, Jin Meiting, and the other six left the East Sea Dragon Palace and began their journey to the capital.

Wang Cao's gaze swept over Lan Kun, Jin Meiting, and the five others, and the corners of his mouth curved into a slight smile as he chuckled, "Haha, this Heavenly Venerable still has important matters to attend to, so I won't be accompanying you all. Let's part ways here!"

Xin Mulan playfully teased, "Haha, it's almost dark. Are you perhaps rushing back to do your homework? Otherwise, you might have to be careful not to be kept after school by the teacher tomorrow."

Jin Meiting, Qin Zhe, and the others couldn't help but laugh when they heard this, truly curious about how this chuunibyou teenager would look if he were punished for not finishing his homework.

Upon hearing the playful laughter of Jin Meiting, Hu Bingbing, and the others, Wang Cao's face instantly darkened.

"Hmph, Xin Mulan, you're so clear about it. Could it be that you yourself were once like this?"

Xin Mulan's eyes widened, "Hey, you little brat... Do you not believe this old lady can make you recall the social beatings of the past?"

Wang Cao mockingly looked at Xin Mulan, who seemed to have had her tail stepped on, "This Heavenly Venerable was just not in good form at the time. How could a good man fight with a woman? This Heavenly Venerable will go ahead..."

Looking at Wang Cao, who was running quickly, Xin Mulan's face showed a hint of disdainful smile, and she pointed at Wang Cao's departing back with a mocking tone.

"Hmph, as expected, he's still scared..."

Qin Zhe shook his head helplessly, thinking that if Wang Cao suffered a few more Phoenix Power attacks, he might already be ready for reincarnation, waiting to become a hero again next year.

Jin Meiting smiled and said, "Alright, don't mind him. Let's hurry up and go see the Grand Elder.

What the Dragon King told us is very important, and we can't delay any longer."

Everyone nodded in agreement, then each used their abilities of sword flight or direct flight to return to the capital together.

Not long after, Lan Kun, Jin Meiting, and the other five arrived in the capital together.

They rushed to the Grand Elder's office.

Lan Kun and the others respectfully saluted the Grand Elder, then Lan Kun said in a deep voice, "Grand Elder, a Dragon Palace has appeared in the East Sea, and their strength is quite formidable."

Seeing the Grand Elder nod in Hint, Lan Kun continued, "In addition, the Dragon King also specifically reminded us that those immortal cultivation Sects and immortal cultivation families hidden in the dimensional Small Worlds may reappear in the human world."

The Grand Elder pondered for a moment, then said, "This matter is indeed no small feat. Once these immortal cultivation forces reappear in the world, they will undoubtedly cause a huge stir. We must be fully prepared to meet the challenges that may arise."

Lan Kun, Jin Meiting, and the other five all nodded in agreement.

The Grand Elder looked at Lan Kun and the others, and asked calmly, "Is there anything else that needs to be reported?"

Lan Kun then replied, "The Dragon King, having just been unsealed by Li Mu, is currently in the process of regaining control over the Dragon Country's rainfall and restoring his divine duties..."

The Grand Elder listened quietly to Lan Kun's account of their trip to the East Sea and did not make any comments.

Since the Dragon King already knew that Lan Kun and the others were from the government and did not make things too difficult for them, it indicated that the two parties were not hostile.

So, could he personally go to the East Sea to meet the Dragon King?

The Grand Elder looked at Lan Kun and slowly asked, "If I plan to go to the East Sea Dragon Palace, do you have any methods or suggestions?"

When they heard the Grand Elder propose to go to the East Sea to meet the Dragon King, they could hardly believe it, staring at the Grand Elder with wide eyes.

However, they quickly recovered and began to consider the possibility of the Grand Elder, as an ordinary Mortal, going to the East Sea Dragon Palace.

After some thought, they all shook their heads, believing that the chance of success was almost zero.

Lan Kun looked at the Grand Elder with a helpless expression, his voice full of regret and apology, as he slowly said, "To answer you, Grand Elder, with our current strength, trying to take you to that unfathomable and perilous underwater Dragon Palace is simply beyond our abilities."
