At this moment, Bai Zeyan's heart was almost in despair. From the moment he first met Ye Luyao in Wanshui City, he had been planning a plan. Although there were some twists and turns along the way, he had tricked him into the sea of ​​skeletons, and at a great cost, he had used the method of transforming death into life to condense a demon dragon. He thought he could easily kill Tang Yunqing and capture Ye Luyao. But what he never expected was that his second trump card was so inexhaustible, even if he had injured a thousand enemies and lost eight hundred alone, he couldn't achieve the desired effect. Bai Zeyan swore, he had clearly seen Tang Yunqing being struck by the demonic energy thunder, his entire person turning into a piece of black coke, losing his vitality in an instant. But in the blink of an eye, he had not only come back to life, but also made a breakthrough in realm? If Tang Yunqing had been killed by the demonic energy thunder, then even if Ye Luyao had pierced the middle spine of the demon dragon, he would only have been killed by the Wanjun thunder. But Tang Yunqing hadn't died yet!

Not only did he not die, but he was unharmed, and he broke through a realm. He also rescued Ye Luyao as quickly as possible and imbued her with dragon power again.

In this way, the situation suddenly changed.

He gave his all, but he achieved nothing, except Tang Yunqing's realm breakthrough!

This was absolutely unacceptable!

Bai Zeyan wanted to escape, but with half of Ye Luyao and Tang Yunqing's attention focused on him, he couldn't do it, and he didn't dare, let alone escape. The reason why Ye Luyao and Tang Yunqing didn't kill him immediately was simply because they wanted to learn something about the endless blue ocean, the sea dragon race, and the demon race from him. The first two were fine, but when it came to the demon race, he didn't dare to say another word.

Because demons had ways to make things worse than death.

In this case, Bai Zeyan had only one way out, and he did the same... That was suicide.

"Boom!"

A low explosion sounded, and Bai Zeyan's body, floating in the sea, exploded into a bloody mist that spread across the sky. Tang Yunqing and Ye Luyao intended to stop him, but because they were too far away, they were helpless, so they could only watch as the waves rolled in and drowned the blood mist in the sea. In fact, Tang Yunqing had already expected this ending.

Although he didn't know much about demons, he had heard of the evil and cruelty of the demon race. Since Bai Zeyan had learned the demons' methods, he must have been controlled by them. It was just a bit of a pity.

Tang Yunqing sighed lightly, and immediately continued to salvage the remains of the law enforcers and sages from the sea, placing them on floating wooden planks, and quietly waited for the mist to dissipate.

About ten minutes later.

With an invisible wind, the thick mist in the sky finally gradually dissipated. At the same time, the remnants of the powerful demonic energy and dragon might that had just erupted in the sea of ​​skeletons quickly spread in all directions.

The demonic energy originated from the Warcraft Star, which differed from all the elemental auras of the Falan Star, so it spread extremely quickly, and it was as striking as the sun in the night sky. However, in just five minutes, Chen Xiyao, the lord of Wanshui City, seven hundred miles away, keenly noticed the escaping demonic energy. The next second, she saw her right hand slightly open, and the code of truth suddenly appeared, and her entire body disappeared in place. Twenty minutes later.

Chen Xiyao appeared silently in the calm sea of ​​skeletons, volleying through the air. Below her, a severely injured law enforcer and a sage were either lying prone or lying on a wooden board. Tang Yunqing and Ye Luyao were constantly treading on the waves, tending to them.

"What's going on?"

Chen Xiyao's face darkened. She took a step forward and approached Tang Yunqing. Although she didn't know Tang Yunqing, she could sense the aura of Tang Yunqing's first badge.

"City Lord!"

Tang Yunqing had never seen Chen Xiyao before, but the intense anger and divine power radiating from Chen Xiyao's body made him guess her identity. He immediately addressed her respectfully. After a brief hesitation, he explained the entire story to Chen Xiyao. However, regarding Ye Luyao's identity, Tang Yunqing was hiding something. After all, it was a major matter, and even Chen Xiyao couldn't tell him everything. After telling Chen Xiyao about many things regarding the Hidden Dragon Guards, the Demon Clan's methods, and the abnormality of the Skeleton Sea, although Chen Xiyao had doubts about the details and couldn't forcefully inquire due to the Envoy of Courage's orders, she couldn't help but feel a little angry at this moment. After all, because of Tang Yunqing's relationship with Ye Luyao, the hundreds of law enforcers and sages he had previously sent out now only had more than twenty left alive, and they were severely damaged.

These were his men.

However, he also knew that the deaths of these people were not entirely Tang Yunqing and Ye Luyao's fault. As the lord of Wanshui City, he had actually failed to discover the forces lurking in the city, and he also had to bear a large share of the responsibility.

"Let's return to the city first." Chen Xiyao stood in the air, looked around, stretched out her right hand to call out a code. Seeing no excessive movement on the ground, the wooden plank carrying the law enforcer and the sage from the sea quickly sailed towards the shore. While the bodies of the fallen law enforcer and sage slowly floated in the air, floating towards the shore behind Chen Xiyao. With Chen Xiyao, an eighth-rank intermediate judge, the group took only half an hour to arrive at the camp at the junction of the Sea of ​​Skeletons and the Desert of Death. Then, Tang Yunqing, under Chen Xiyao's orders, purchased a large number of carriages from the camp and transported the fallen law enforcer and sage back to Wanshui City.

A day later.

Tang Yunqing and Ye Luyao returned to Wanshui City again. Chen Xiyao arranged for them to stay at the city lord's mansion while she handled the funeral affairs of the law enforcement group and the sages, as well as matters related to the Hidden Dragon Guards and the Demon Clan. After settling in the city lord's mansion, Tang Yunqing and Ye Luyao finally breathed a sigh of relief and then summarized the gains and losses of their trip.

During this journey exploring the Dragon Court, both of them made many mistakes.

The biggest mistake was naturally Bai Zeyan's misconduct, and he shouldn't have cooperated with him. However, neither of them could have imagined that the Hidden Dragon Guards had been tricked by the demons, thus leading to the deaths of the law enforcement and sages. Every time he thought of this, Tang Yunqing felt a strong sense of self-blame and guilt, but even more so was anger and hatred. The object of his hatred was the Hidden Dragon Guards and the Sea Dragon Clan, but even more so the demons. After all, the demons were the cause of all this.

But... Speaking of which, why did the demons lay siege to Wanshui City? They couldn't be sure that the prophet knew Ye Luyao would come to Wanshui City, could they? Unless... They have their own agenda. The demons also know that the Dragon Court is near Ten Thousand Water City!

But this isn't surprising. The Sea Dragon Clan's source of civil strife is a powerful figure second only to the Sea Dragon Emperor, who instigated a rebellion. They know that it's no surprise that the Dragon Court is left behind in the realm of law. However, the Hidden Dragon Guard is the Sea Dragon Emperor's personal force, and it was extremely secretive to be sent to Ten Thousand Water City. Furthermore, why are the demons seeking the Dragon Court? Is it also for the heart of the ocean?

Tang Yunqing thought hard.

After clarifying his thoughts, Tang Yunqing told Ye Luyao what he was thinking. Ye Luyao discussed with Tang Yunqing for a while after hearing this.

Not long after, Chen Xiyao finally finished dealing with the urgent matter at hand and rushed to inquire about Tang Yunqing and Ye Luyao. The former told Chen Xiyao all the information she knew, and Chen Xiyao listened, gradually developing a countermeasure in her heart. And this time, she suddenly discovered it.

"You're already fifth?" Chen Xiyao's tone was slightly raised.

"Yes." Tang Yunqing nodded.

Chen Xiyao was silent for a long time when she heard this, and then had to admit that Tang Yunqing was truly extraordinary. Just now, while she was dealing with the matter at hand, she had gotten to know Tang Yunqing a little better. She learned that he had actually broken through to the fourth-level first-rank controller not long ago, and now he had broken through to the fifth-level intermediate-rank controller.

And judging by his condition, it didn't seem like a forced breakthrough; his foundation was very stable. According to this trend, it wouldn't be difficult for him to surpass him in the future and break through to the ninth-level high-rank judge realm.

No wonder the Divine Envoy valued him so much, and no wonder he was able to escape from the demon dragon earlier. Chen Xiyao sighed inwardly. After chatting with the two for a while, Chen Xiyao hurriedly left. There were traces of demons in Wanshui City's jurisdiction, and she had many things to do. In the afternoon of the same day, Chen Xiyao came to look for the two of them again and informed them that she had communicated in detail with the Divine Envoy of Valor and decided that the entire Wanshui City would enter the highest level of war. Many surrounding city forces would also participate in handling the affairs of the Hidden Dragon Guards, the Demon Clan, and the Dragon Court.

Tang Yunqing had already expected Chen Xiyao's words.

It was related to the demons, and the Divine Envoy of Valor could no longer regard the Dragon Court as a training ground for Ye Luyao and Tang Yunqing. However, she didn't explicitly forbid their actions, meaning that the two of them could indeed mingle in this battle, even if they were facing demons.

It could be seen that the Divine Envoy of Valor was truly free from them.

However, Tang Yunqing was not stupid. He didn't plan to confront the demons right now. He had more important things to do: go to the temple, obtain the approval of the holy courtyard, and complete his promotion. However, Ye Luyao had a different opinion. Although Tang Yunqing's realm advancement was important, finding the Dragon Court before the demon race and obtaining the Heart of the Ocean was equally important. She was the princess of the Sea Dragon Clan, and Tang Yunqing carried the Sea Dragon Ball, and the chances of finding the Dragon Court were greater than anyone else's, so they had to take the lead.

But opinions are always just opinions. Due to many special factors, the final decision rested with Tang Yunqing, and he had sufficient reason to persuade Ye Luyao.

"Did you know that the Sea Dragon Ball actually has the effect of monitoring the endless blue ocean?" Tang Yunqing asked.

"What did you say?" After Ye Luyao heard this, she suddenly turned to look at Tang Yunqing.

Only then did Tang Yunqing tell Ye Luyao about his entry into the inner world of the Sea Dragon Ball, including the suspected dragon egg.

After listening to Tang Yunqing's description, Ye Luyao confirmed on the spot that it was indeed a sea dragon egg, and it was no ordinary sea dragon egg. However, she didn't know whether its existence was true or false.

In fact, neither of them could be certain about the world within the Sea Dragon Ball. It does exist, but maybe it's just a Sea Dragon Ball simulation?
