Chen Xiao suddenly recalled the last time he met the King of Luling.
He had said that once Chen Xiao obtained the final sacred relic, he would seek him out, as he had a secret to tell Chen Xiao.
"It's Old Lu!"
Chen Xiao said, "What do you need me for? Can you wait a moment? I have an urgent matter to attend to."
Chen Xiao said this not out of concern for the safety of the Eastern Ocean divine race, but simply out of fear that the Heavenly Dao would snatch away the Dragon Veins.
The stone lion shook its massive head and said, "No, you must come now. I know where you are going and what you are doing, so you must come immediately, because what I have to tell you is related to this matter."
"Oh?"
Chen Xiao was slightly stunned, "Alright, I'm coming right away!"
After speaking, Chen Xiao didn't explain anything to Arakishiko, but wrote a line of text on the ground with his Judge's Brush.
"I am before the King of Luling!"
With a flash of light, Chen Xiao arrived at the underground imperial tomb beneath his own residence.
The coffin lid flipped open, and the King of Luling jumped out of the coffin.
"Old Lu, speak, what did you want me for!"
Chen Xiao asked casually.
"I have something to tell you, concerning the nine Dragon Veins."
The King of Luling got straight to the point.
"Oh? What do you mean?"
Chen Xiao immediately asked.
The King of Luling explained, "As you know, there are nine Dragon Veins in total across the Nine Provinces. Only three remain in plain sight. So, where have the other six gone?"
"Are you testing me, or do you want me to guess?"
Chen Xiao rolled his eyes. "As far as I know, there is one Dragon Vein in the Eastern Ocean, and another one beneath my home. By this calculation, there are actually four Dragon Veins missing!"
"That's right!"
The King of Luling nodded, and suddenly took out a square disc from his clothes.
The disc was only palm-sized, with intricate patterns all over it, looking like a map.
"Chen Xiao, this magical artifact is called the Earth Mother Dragon Vein Diagram. Its function is to be able to collect Dragon Veins into it."
"I know you are going to the Eastern Ocean to retrieve the Dragon Veins this time, so this Earth Mother Dragon Vein Diagram is indispensable!"
After hearing the King of Luling's words, Chen Xiao was completely bewildered. "Why is it called the Earth Mother Dragon Vein Diagram? That name is so strange!"
"This..."
The King of Luling hesitated for a moment. "You will naturally know later, but I still need to tell you about the whereabouts of the other Dragon Veins."
"Oh? King of Luling, please tell me!"
Chen Xiao's eyes lit up, and he became much more polite.
"Actually, the Dragon Vein beneath your home is the Dragon Vein of Luzhou during the Nine Provinces period. That's right, ever since I was buried here, the Luzhou Dragon Vein has been hidden here."
"Besides me, the King of Liangzhou also possesses a Dragon Vein."
"Adding the one in the Eastern Ocean, that makes six. This means there are still three unknown Dragon Veins!"
Chen Xiao narrowed his eyes, knowing that what the King of Luling was about to say was the key point.
"And those three Dragon Veins are all in the hands of one person, the Tin Man!"
The King of Luling's answer was both logical and unexpected for Chen Xiao.
He hadn't expected the Tin Man to possess such great power.
"What is your intention in telling me this?"
Chen Xiao asked curiously.
"It's very simple, you need to gather all nine Dragon Veins!"
The King of Luling replied very seriously.
