As Tang Yunqing and Ye Luyao stood before the gate of the departure hall, countless sea dragons stared at them with complicated eyes, some envious, some jealous, some expectant, some desperate, and a multitude of emotions.

Feeling their gazes, both of them felt a sense of pressure and a great sense of responsibility.

"We'll be back soon." Tang Yunqing turned his gaze and looked at the Dragon Ancestor before him.

"Okay."

Long Zu's tone was as calm as ever.

"We'll definitely be back soon!" Ye Luyao's voice was relatively high, and his eyes were firm.

"Let's go." The Dragon Ancestor smiled at Ye Luyao and waved his hand.

After those words fell, Tang Yunqing and Ye Luyao took a deep breath, turned, and stepped into the space door. Water seeped into their bodies, their vision blurred, but soon the light returned.

When they opened their eyes again, they had returned to the sea of ​​quicksand.

Looking around, they saw an endless sea of ​​sand.

They looked down and found that the quicksand sea was still flowing, but the powerful devouring force had disappeared. This made Tang Yunqing and Ye Luyao couldn't help but rejoice. They had originally thought that it would be very troublesome to not have the sand seahorses after coming out, but now the changes in the quicksand sea had brought them unexpected joy.

After Tang Yunqing stood still, he looked back and found that the spatial door was still there, seemingly fixed and not about to disappear. The smile on his face grew even brighter.

Because he had previously proposed to Long Zu the idea of ​​allowing the human race in the legal domain to establish diplomatic relations with the Sea Dragon Clan in the Lost Land and form a relationship of mutual assistance, Long Zu had actually agreed. However, because the Dragon Court was on the official account of the quicksand sea, the question of how the human race came here had always been a headache for Tang Yunqing.

However, now that the problem had been resolved, the relationship between the human race and the sea dragon race could naturally be established smoothly, which would be greatly beneficial to the development of the human race.

Tang Yunqing observed the sun's position, determined its direction, and then took out a piece of the ancestral dragon scale from the Sea Dragon Ball and placed it next to the space gate. He then led Ye Luyao towards Quicksand City.

Along the way, Tang Yunqing determined the direction, while Ye Luyao held the Heart of the Ocean, observing the situation in the endless blue ocean.

After acquiring the Heart of the Ocean, Ye Luyao's lingering feelings were finally released. In a short time, Sea Dragon Imperial City would be unbreakable. Furthermore, the Sea Dragon Clan's army in the Lost Lands would become his strong support, so his mood was no longer as anxious as before.

On their way back to Quicksand City, Tang Yunqing and Ye Luyao did not encounter another sandstorm. They suspected that the sandstorm might have dissipated due to the ability to swallow the Quicksand Sea. After all, the Dragon Court was controlled by the Sea Dragon Clan, and the Quicksand Sea was one of the Dragon Court's independent defense mechanisms.

However, Tang Yunqing did not relax his vigilance because of this. In the outside world, the threat of the Dragon Demon Clan still existed. The reason they were able to enter the Dragon Court earlier wasn't because they found the entrance themselves, but because they were accidentally forced into it by the power of the Dragon Demon Clan's domain.

"I don't know where they are now..." Tang Yunqing thought to himself, the light in his right palm flowing, and he could summon the Code of Truth at any time.

Two hours later. Tang Yunqing and Ye Luyao were still walking in the vast sea of ​​sand. Because there were no sand seahorses to ride, they had to spend several times more time than when they left to return to Quicksand City.

The sky gradually darkened.

In the desert covered in yellow sand, there were no stars or moonlight, and it was pitch black in all directions, except for the sound of the howling wind.

Suddenly, Tang Yunqing stood still, and Ye Luyao also raised her head, handed the Heart of the Ocean to Tang Yunqing, and then looked west.

There was nothing to the west, only darkness. But soon, someone's shout came from the wind.

It was a panicked cry.

After Tang Yunqing and Ye Luyao exchanged glances, one condensed a dragon spear, the other summoned the Code of Truth. Divine power and dragon might surged, their feet moved swiftly. After a while, they saw more than a dozen human beings fleeing hastily. Judging by their attire, they should all be adventurers from Quicksand City. Not far behind them, a group of dragon demons with swaying dragon tails were chasing them with sharp smiles.

"There are demons!"

"Run! Come on!"

A dozen people spotted Tang Yunqing and Ye Luyao from a distance and immediately shouted anxiously, waving at them as they shouted.

Tang Yunqing and Ye Luyao rushed towards them immediately. Tang Yunqing's God-given Code flipped through the pages, and the third flipped page of the "Mind Sharing" ability connected the dozen races.

"Don't be afraid, follow us to defend against the enemy."

As Tang Yunqing spoke, the code continued to flip, returning to the first page of "Incantations."

"Incantation Technique, heal!"

After Tang Yunqing shouted, a light blue light floated from the codex and showered the bodies of many humans, healing their wounds and calming their anxious spirits.

When he was a fourth-rank beginner controller, Tang Yunqing could only use four spells: "Wall," "Punishment," "Blessing," and "Aspiration." After being promoted to a fifth-rank intermediate controller, he naturally learned "Healing."

The healing spell technique of a fifth-rank intermediate controller greatly improved the injuries of this group of law enforcers, all below the fourth rank. However, their expressions were still extremely nervous.

"Master Controller, let's run. Most of those demons are fourth-rank! The leaders are all fifth-rank!" A middle-aged man's urgent voice rang in Tang Yunqing's mind. "It doesn't matter. With us, they are no match."

While Tang Yunqing answered, he flipped the main page of the codex to the fourth page. The path of truth lay before everyone present. Transcendent perception gave them a powerful sense of perception, transferring the vitality of over a dozen of them on average, and finally, a song of revelation.

As the chanting echoed in everyone's ears, they looked at the fourth-level dragon demon again, and they all saw many weaknesses.

In just an instant, the strength of this group of humans had been greatly enhanced. This was still happening when Tang Yunqing hadn't given it his all. His ability to flip the fifth page of the code hadn't been fully demonstrated, but this was also a last resort. At the same time, even Tang Yunqing's divine power felt a little strained. He could only frantically draw divine power from the air while using his abilities, endless energy, and the amplification of the sea dragon balls, allowing him to barely maintain his balance. The recovery from his injuries and the massive increase in strength lifted the spirits of the humans slightly, but deep down, they were still very worried. They hadn't seen the cover page of Tang Yunqing's code just now, so they only knew that he was a controller, but they didn't know what level of controller he was. But with his youth, he could only be an intermediate-level controller at most, right? A fifth-level intermediate controller, coupled with a younger woman, would most likely not be a match for the dragon demon.

However, due to Tang Yunqing's numerous actions, they stopped fleeing, and it was now too late to continue fleeing, so they could only bite the bullet and face it head on.

And just as Tang Yunqing was using all his strength to prepare to fight the Quicksand City residents and the dragon demons, Ye Luyao suddenly leaped and rushed towards the distant dragon demons like dew and lightning. The dragon scales covering his entire body burned with raging dragon flames. These flames were ignited by the power of the dragon, possessing both defensive and offensive power.

Almost instantly, Ye Luyao plunged into the group of dragon demons. Then, only to see blue lights and shadows shuttled through the group of dragons and demons, screams echoed, and blood spurted, shooting, and splashing out, leaving Tang Yunqing and all the Quicksand City adventurers present dumbfounded.

"Master Controller... Look, shall we help?" A mumbling voice sounded in Tang Yunqing's mind.

"No need..." Tang Yunqing hesitated for a moment, then removed all the coded abilities.

"Master Controller, who is this girl?" After the mind-sharing ability disappeared, a young man closer to Tang Yunqing swallowed his saliva and asked.

"My friend," Tang Yunqing replied lightly.

The young man didn't get the answer he wanted, but he didn't dare ask further.

Of course, he knew that Ye Luyao was Tang Yunqing's friend, but what this young man wanted to know was that Ye Luyao was a law enforcer in the main city of the jurisdiction? He had never heard of a law enforcer who excelled in close combat.

Sanctuary? But he didn't have the slightest intention of performing the "demon god transformation."

The young man couldn't figure it out, so he could only shake his head, look quietly into the distance, and continue to admire and amaze the humans beside him.

In just three minutes, twelve fourth-level dragon demons and three fifth-level dragon demons were all defeated by Ye Luyao in an extremely cruel manner. Most of them were killed by him, leaving only one fifth-level dragon demon left.

He hadn't been blinded by anger and hatred, and knew that he had left the fifth-level dragon demon for Tang Yunqing to inquire about.

After confirming that the remaining fourteen dragon demons were truly dead, Ye Luyao slowly dragged the dragon demon's tail back, covered in blood, like a killing god, causing all the humans present to tremble.

Even Tang Yunqing was terrified by his gaze, but he also knew that Ye Luyao wasn't actually that cruel. The reason he was like this was entirely because he had been suppressed for too long. Coming from the endless blue sea to the dragon court, the enemies he and Tang Yunqing had encountered were almost all stronger than them. Now that they were finally stronger, they naturally had to release their hatred and anger towards the demons.

After Ye Luyao returned, if other dragon demon clans arrived later, Tang Yunqing would first recover his full dragon power, and then turn to look at these dozen or so races. "Which one of you will tell me what happened? How did you enter the quicksand sea, and where did you meet this dragon demon? Didn't they hide their identities from the start?" Tang Yunqing asked like a cannonball.

The people being questioned looked at me, and I looked at you, until finally the young man who had asked Tang Yunqing the question earlier stood up and explained to Tang Yunqing.
