273: Dragon's Sorrow

Time flew by.

Half a month later.

Su Changqing exhaled a mouthful of turbid Qi, feeling his entire being filled with Perfection, his state better than ever before.

It had to be said, the Immortal Qi environment of the Immortal Realm was excellent; his cultivation had also improved significantly.

"It's about time. Even if the great battle lasted longer, it should be over by now."

Su Changqing smiled slightly, a hint of excitement in his heart.

Now that he was returning to the Heavenly Martial Continent, he naturally felt a little nervous.

He wondered how the Dragon Clan and that Immortal were doing.

Hopefully, they had fought like dogs, tearing each other to pieces.

Thinking this, Su Changqing summoned the Two Worlds Gate, and then, with a thought, stepped into it.

When he opened his eyes again, he had appeared in the depths of the East Sea on the Heavenly Martial Continent.

It was different from the scene when he had left from here last time.

Back then, the Dragon Palace, where the Dragon Clan resided at the bottom of the East Sea, was extremely luxurious, filled with countless treasures everywhere; some treasures would cause countless Martial Artists to scramble for them in the outside world, but in the East Sea Dragon Palace, they were commonplace.

But now!

When Su Changqing returned to the East Sea Dragon Palace, the situation was vastly different.

There were ruins everywhere, corpses everywhere, and a strong smell of blood permeated the entire underwater world.

It was clear that a world-shaking great battle had erupted here.

Even Su Changqing couldn't help but feel shocked.

What kind of terrifying power could cause such destruction?

He took out the Thousand Illusions Mask and transformed into a Holy Realm Dragon Clan Martial Artist, then swam towards the vicinity.

Before long, he saw a Yaksha Clan Supreme Realm Martial Artist cleaning up the battlefield.

Su Changqing controlled his body and swam over; seeing this, the Yaksha immediately put down what he was holding and respectfully bowed in greeting.

"Greetings, Your Excellency!"

Regardless of the Dragon Clan's cultivation strength, any other race in the seabed, upon seeing a Dragon Clan Martial Artist, had to respectfully greet them and address them as 'Your Excellency'.

Moreover, the Dragon Clan he had transformed into was a Holy Realm one.

"I've been in seclusion for over half a year and haven't come out. What happened here, why is it so desolate?"

Su Changqing asked.

Although the Yaksha felt puzzled, he dared not ask further and answered truthfully:

"To answer Your Excellency, twenty days ago, a white-robed man intruded into our Dragon Palace, claiming to be looking for a certain Martial Artist of the Dragon Clan, and then engaged in a great battle with the Dragon King and a group of Elders.

The Dragon King and the Elders formed a Formation, but that person's strength was truly too great; even with all the Dragon Clan's powerhouses attacking together, they ultimately lost, the Dragon King was severely wounded, five Elders were slain on the spot, and the remaining three Elders were also gravely injured."

Hmm?

Upon hearing this, Su Changqing felt joy in his heart, but his expression remained unchanged.

Good!

Excellent!

These guys deserved it.

An eager expression appeared on his face.

"Where is that white-robed powerhouse now? Where did he go afterwards?"

The Yaksha said:

"The person the white-robed Martial Artist was searching for did not seem to be in the Dragon Palace; he searched the entire place without any result, then roared to the sky.

He originally intended to slaughter all living beings in the East Sea, but the Dragon King offered a certain treasure, which seemed to make the white-robed Martial Artist wary, and since he didn't find the person he was looking for, he retreated."

Upon hearing this, Su Changqing nodded slightly.

It seemed this Dragon King was not simple, actually possessing something that could make that white-robed Martial Artist wary.

However, currently, out of the Dragon Clan's original nine Emperor Realm Elders, five had died in battle, leaving only four Elders, all of whom were severely injured, and one of them was even severely injured by Su Changqing.

Even the Dragon King was severely injured by that Immortal, his life uncertain; even if he didn't die, it would likely take a long time for him to recover.

Therefore.

Su Changqing and the Tai Xuan Sect did not need to worry so much.

Now, the most pressing concern was whether that Immortal had left or not.

If the other party had not yet returned to the Immortal Realm from the Heavenly Martial Continent, Su Changqing might encounter danger if he stayed here for too long.

"Where did that white-robed Immortal go afterwards?"

Su Changqing continued to ask.

The Yaksha shook his head:

"This humble one does not know; Your Excellency can ask the Dragon King."

Upon hearing this, Su Changqing did not ask any further.

After all, he was just a Supreme Realm Yaksha; it was normal for him not to know much.

Of course, he certainly couldn't go ask the Dragon King.

After all, he had no identity whatsoever within the Dragon Clan, a complete unregistered resident; appearing boldly before the Dragon King would greatly risk exposure.

"Alright, you may go."

"Yes!"

The Yaksha bowed in agreement and then respectfully left the area.

Leaving Su Changqing alone in thought.

"Now, the Dragon Clan is greatly weakened, so there's no need to worry about them."

"And the state the Immortal saw me in was that of a Dragon Clan member, so there's no need to worry too much; this fire certainly won't burn the Human Race."

"Moreover, although the other party comes from the Immortal Realm, their time in the Heavenly Martial Continent is limited. According to Purple Yang Immortal, the other party can only stay in the Heavenly Martial Continent for one year, and during this period, they cannot cause large-scale slaughter, otherwise, it will incur the Heavenly Dao's displeasure, and if the Heavenly Dao acts, that Immortal will be in danger."

After pondering for a moment, Su Changqing decided to temporarily return to the Immortal Realm and spend a year there.

Once the other party was forced to Ascend to the Immortal Realm, he could then return to the Heavenly Martial Continent.

Having understood the situation, Su Changqing's mood immediately improved; he turned his body, found a quiet, uninhabited place, then summoned the Two Worlds Gate, stepped directly through it, and reappeared in the Immortal Realm.

At this moment.

Outside the East Sea.

Saint Moon Golden Immortal frowned slightly, his eyes revealing a hint of disbelief.

Just now, he had clearly sensed that fellow's aura in the depths of the East Sea, but in just a moment, the aura disappeared again, as if he had left this world.

"Could it be that he left this world?"

"Impossible, a mere Holy Realm martial artist could never cross the river of time, and that fellow didn't leave the East Sea at all, otherwise, this Immortal, having been stationed here for dozens of days, couldn't have failed to notice anything."

His mind stirred, guessing that Su Changqing must still be in the East Sea at this moment.

"Damn it, those old Dragons must have deceived this Immortal last time, but although I killed a few old Dragons last time, this Immortal was also injured, and that Dragon King still has an extraordinary treasure that can communicate with the Heavenly Dao, so I shouldn't act rashly."

Saint Moon Golden Immortal thought this, his heart growing increasingly irritable.

Although he had searched the entire East Sea, he still hadn't found that fellow's figure.

But he was absolutely certain that the one who killed Yue Zhi was still in the East Sea.

"If only I could slaughter all those damned stinking Dragons."

"Forget it, I'll search one more time; if not, I'll stake out this place for a year. I refuse to believe he can stay cooped up in the sea and not come out!"

Saint Moon Golden Immortal thought this, his murderous intent growing even stronger.
