"Bei Hai, that one!" Chen Xi complained, immediately reporting, "Bei Hai, that guy, was worried you'd trouble him about this matter, so he's been avoiding Long Ying."
"Bei Hai's Ancestral Dragon?" Qi Yu leaned her hands on the table, looking at Chen Xi, "Hey, why would he bully you, Lord Chen Xi."
"How would I know," Chen Xi hugged his arms, looking wronged.
Yan Hua stood up, "Since that's the case, let's go to the secret realm. My people are being bullied, how audacious."
An Nuo and Shao Feng nodded.
Although they had no ill will towards demons and monsters, using such a comparison was indeed excessive.
"But he can't be found anywhere," Chen Xi put his hands on his hips, "I didn't say anything more about it back then because Bei Hai that guy was nowhere to be seen."
Jin Yan propped his chin with one hand, "Coward, Bei Hai that guy usually has such a venomous tongue. If he mocks you, why don't you fight him?"
Chen Xi pursed his lips, "I'm too weak, so I can't win."
Qi Yu stroked her chin.
It wasn't that he was weak, but rather that Chen Xi wasn't the fighting type.
Jin Yan stood up, "Actually, I know where Bei Hai that guy is, but if I tell you, you can't say I told you."
"Rare," Shao Feng looked at Jin Yan in disbelief, "You're afraid of Bei Hai's Ancestral Dragon?"
Bei Hai's Ancestral Dragon, named Yu Yuan, was a black dragon.
Among the Four Ancestral Dragons, ranked by age, Yan Hua was the oldest, followed by Yu Yuan, then Jin Yan, and Chen Xi was the youngest.
"It's not that I'm afraid of him, it's that I can't argue with him," Jin Yan showed a rare expression of annoyance, "Yu Yuan's mouth just knows how to nag, or curse people with venomous words. When fighting, he only uses underhanded tactics. This kind of guy is what the saying calls a true villain, the most troublesome."
"Where is Yu Yuan that guy now?" Yan Hua looked at Jin Yan, "Don't say I told you, just pretend you stumbled upon him."
"In the Endless Deep Sea," Jin Yan replied seriously.
...
The Endless Deep Sea was a spiral trench located in the center of the Four Seas.
This trench was constantly swirling, appearing like a giant, sunken pit from above.
Ordinary sea creatures, including An Nuo, Shao Feng, Qi Yu, and Si Qing, could not enter a trench of this magnitude.
Therefore, Yan Hua, Chen Xi, and Jin Yan had to carry their families in their dragon claws and take them in.
Originally, An Nuo and Shao Feng only intended to bring Qi Yu and Si Qing.
But the King and Queen of the West Sea Dragon were also here, along with Chu Xian and Jing Xiu.
An Nuo felt that it was a bit too impolite to leave guests alone at home every time they went somewhere for fun or on a long trip.
Later, after getting the opinion of the King and Queen of the West Sea Dragon, who expressed their desire to see the secret realm, they decided to bring everyone along.
Qi Yu and Si Qing were held in Yan Hua's dragon claws. The two little ones had returned to their original forms and peeked out through the gaps in his claws.
They didn't see any strange scenery, only the constantly swirling seawater.
Si Qing curiously extended his tail.
The surging seawater almost swept him away.
Yan Hua's fingers tightened.
Si Qing whimpered and quickly retracted his tail.
Yan Hua lowered his dragon head, his voice steady and powerful, "You two, don't mess around. If you get swept away by the seawater, you'll be torn to shreds."
Qi Yu and Si Qing yelped and obediently curled into a ball.
Chen Xi, with An Nuo and Shao Feng, protected them within his dragon claws.
Jin Yan walked at the rear, responsible for protecting the King and Queen of the West Sea Dragon, as well as Chu Xian and Jing Xiu.
The trench of the Endless Deep Sea was very deep, and it became darker and darker as they went deeper, eventually becoming so dark that no light could be seen, leaving only the icy seawater.
Qi Yu and Si Qing clung to each other, trembling.
Yan Hua's dragon claws channeled spiritual energy to keep them warm.
Qi Yu narrowed her eyes. The once cold temperature suddenly became warm, making her feel drowsy.
Si Qing couldn't help but yawn.
They nuzzled Yan Hua's palm and fell into a deep sleep. When they opened their eyes again, they found themselves hanging on Yan Hua's shoulder.
The surroundings were no longer the cold deep sea, but a lush green grassland.
