Dragon King’s Son-In-Law

When Hao Ren and Xie Yujia returned to Zhao Yanzi’s home, the tea in the teacups of the three dragon kings was still warm.

“Sorry for making you wait.” Xie Yujia walked into the room and went straight to Ciyun Dragon King.

Ciyun Dragon King was just talking about the situation of the southwest region with Zhao Guang when he saw Xie Yujia coming, and he was shocked at how fast she was; it was much faster than he had expected.

“Your pills are done. Please take a look.” Xie Yujia took out the white jade bottle and put it on the tea table.

Ciyun Dragon King picked up the bottle. He paused for half a second before taking out the red cloth that was sealing the bottle.

Normally speaking, if he trusted the East Ocean Dragon Palace enough, he should just put the bottle away without inspection.

However, these pills were too important for both him and Yuhuang Mountain, so he couldn’t help but take a look.

Di, di, di… The three red pills rolled out from the bottle at once.

“This…” Ciyun Dragon King’s eyes opened widely.

“I thought there were sufficient ingredients, so I made more. You could give the other two to these two dragon kings. I hope you don’t mind.” Xie Yujia explained.

The two dragon kings who were beside Ciyun Dragon King were both shocked and delighted when they heard what Xie Yujia said.

They accepted Ciyun Dragon King’s invitation to visit the East Ocean Dragon Palace together. They thought it would be an excellent opportunity to build relationships with the East Ocean Dragon Palace as well as support Ciyun Dragon King.

However, they never thought that coming here would get them each a Rejuvenation Pill!

“Of course, I don’t mind!” Ciyun Dragon King’s wrinkled face brightened.

The earth-elemental dragons were the best in making elixirs amongst the five-elemental dragons. Although Ciyun Dragon King couldn’t make elixir himself, he was still good at distinguishing the levels of pills. These three pills were the real deal: level 4 Rejuvenation Pills!

One pill could increase their life expectancy by 100 years!

Of course, one could only take one pill since the second pill wouldn’t have the same effect. However, one hundred years was enough for Ciyun Dragon King.

“Hehehe, thanks to Ciyun Dragon King, we’ve got it too.” Cangye Dragon King and Yingtian Dragon King stood up and thanked Xie Yujia.

Even though they weren’t as desperate for the Rejuvenation Pills as Ciyun Dragon King, a level 4 elixir pill could be stored, and it could be extremely useful in the future!

Zhao Hongyu looked at Xie Yujia and thought happily, “She is really a considerate girl!”

“We will forever remember the favor that East Ocean had done for Yuhuang Mountain. There are still a lot of things to deal with in the mountains. Once I’m done, I will visit again with more gifts!”

Ciyun Dragon King put the white jade bottle in his ring and stood up straight. He held his hands together and bowed at Zhao Guang gratefully.

Cangye Dragon King and Yingtian Dragon King also stood up and said, “The Cangye Lake Dragon Clan and The Longhu Mountain Dragon Clan will help out if the East Ocean Dragon Clan needs any help in the future!”

Cangye Lake and Longhu Mountain were two medium-sized clans in the southwestern region.

However, since there weren’t large clans like the East Ocean Dragon Clan in that region, together with Ciyun Dragon King, they represented the majority of power in the area.

Of course, Zhao Guang was ecstatic. He never thought that Xie Yujia’s pill could lead to friendships with three southwestern dragon clans. In fact, these three elixir pills had led to an alliance between the East Ocean Dragon Clan and three southwestern dragon clans.

Geographically speaking, the southwestern region was closer to the West Ocean Dragon Palace. However, the West Ocean Dragon Palace was more arrogant, so other non-water-elemental dragon clans didn’t have a good relationship with them.

Now that the East Ocean Dragon Clan had bonded with the three southwestern dragon kings, it was a bigger threat to the West Ocean Dragon Clan. Therefore, the West Ocean Dragon Clan would not dare to make a move so easily.

“Thank you for the pills, Elixir Master. If there’s a chance, please come and visit Yuhuang Mountain,” Ciyun Dragon King said to Xie Yujia politely.

He only knew the East Ocean Dragon Clan had a Level 4 elixir master before, but now he knew that she wasn’t simple.

Their wood-elemental dragon clans also had experience with making elixir, but they would have to pay close attention for at least a week to make level 4 pills. However, if adding the amount of time required to get ready, it would take at least half a month. That was why he gave Xie Yujia a month just in case other events took place.

Ciyun Dragon King had indeed given Xie Yujia more ingredients, but that was taking failures and leakage from the elixir making process into consideration.

He never expected that the elixir master of the East Ocean Dragon Palace would use some materials of her own to create three Rejuvenation Pills!

From all aspects, Ciyun Dragon King thought that this elixir master’s real power far exceeded that of a regular level 4 elixir master.

Regardless of which dragon clan she belonged to, it was worth building a good relationship with her.

“Hehe, Yujia is like half a daughter to me. If we ever have the chance to visit Yuhuang Mountain, I’ll bring her along with me,” Zhao Hongyu lightly took hold of Xie Yujia’s hand and said to Ciyun Dragon King gently.

She knew what Ciyun Dragon King was thinking about very clearly. After all, an elixir master like Xie Yujia would be beneficial to any power, and they would want to win her over using any method.

What Zhao Hongyu just did showed East Ocean’s close relationship with Xie Yujia, signaling to Ciyun Dragon King that it would be a waste of time and effort for Yuhuang Mountain to try to win Xie Yujia over.

“Hehe… Congratulations to you, Dragon Queen, for having such a talented and beautiful daughter. I’m very jealous!” Ciyun Dragon King laughed energetically to relieve the awkwardness.

After some thought, Ciyun Dragon King realized that the East Ocean Dragon Clan would for sure keep such a talented elixir master close. On the other hand, since such a talented elixir master was willing to help the East Ocean Dragon Clan, it only meant that they had good relationships. Everything made sense if Xie Yujia was like a daughter to the Dragon Queen of East Ocean.

Zhao Hongyu responded with an elegant smile and no further explanations.

Zhao Yanzi pouted, feeling like Xie Yujia was more like a daughter to her mom than her.

“Thanks for the help today. I’ll come again next time to show my gratitude officially,” Ciyun Dragon King said and gave a slight bow.

As he did that, he stared at Hao Ren, thinking, “This young Fuma of the East Ocean Dragon Clan is strong. Although I didn’t see his performance at the Dragon God Shrine’s general exams, all the elders who went told me great things about him. This young man is respectful, humble, not greedy, and patient. Rumour had it that he is also the Commanding General of the East Ocean Dragon Palace. This step of befriending the East Ocean Dragon Clan seems like a good step to take.”

“This jade furnace…”

Hao Ren took out the big jade furnace from his storage space.

With all the thoughts in his mind, Ciyun Dragon King almost forgot about the jade furnace which was one of the most precious treasures of the Yuhuang Mountain Dragon Clan.

“Hehehe…” Ciyun Dragon King smiled friendly and cast a dharma spell to turn the jade furnace smaller. Then, he put the small jade furnace into his storage ring.

“Damn! What a virtuous young man!” Ciyun Dragon King praised Hao Ren secretly.

The jade furnace was a great treasure. After Ciyun Dragon King received the three Rejuvenation Pills, he was so thrilled that he forgot about it. If he left without asking it back, he might not be able to get it back in the future.

However, Hao Ren had no intention of keeping the jade furnace for himself and gave it back voluntarily.

Ciyun Dragon King had lived for 600 years, and he looked at Hao Ren and thought secretly, ‘This young man will reach great heights in the future!”

The three dragon kings and the elders and their disciples walked toward the door. Zhao Guang, Zhao Hongyu, Hao Ren, Zhao Yanzi, and Xie Yujia all went out to see them off.

Since Yuhuang Mountain didn’t need to wait a month to come back to get the pills, it didn’t mean that they couldn’t come back. Instead, they would come back for sure with even more valuable gifts!

The two other dragon kings who came along with Ciyun Dragon King would also send gifts to the East Ocean Dragon Clan since they got Rejuvenation Pills as well.

The conversation between the four dragon clans was quite smooth, and it seemed like they could become great allies.

The tens of Mercedes drove away slowly, and Zhao Guang was delighted and let out a long relieved breath.

The East Ocean Dragon Clan had destroyed the West Ocean Dragon Palace. Then, the East Ocean Dragon Palace destroyed the West Ocean Dragon Palace’s troops.

On land, Mingri Group had acquired Conqueror Group’s subsidiaries, pushing Conqueror Group into a dangerous position.

All these things would make the East Ocean Dragon Palace look dominating and pressing.

Ciyun Dragon King of Yuhuang Mountain was well respected amongst the wood-elemental dragon clans because he was fair and mild. Even the earth-elemental dragon clans respected him.

Both the wood-elemental and earth-elemental dragon clans were deep in the forests, so they were often neighbors with close relationships. It also meant that they were somewhat distant from the water-elemental dragon clans.

Unlike the retired dragon kings, Ciyun Dragon King was in charge of Yuhuang Mountain, and his words could influence the perspectives other wood-elemental and earth-elemental dragon clans had toward the East Ocean Dragon Palace.

With Ciyun Dragon King’s good impression of the East Ocean Dragon Clan, there should be more and more clans that would be willing to establish relationships with the East Ocean Dragon Clan, allowing East Ocean to have a better reputation and have access to more resources.

“Hehe! Let’s go have dinner!” Zhao Guang said happily as he watched the cars disappear. Then, he turned around and walked into the house.

The relationships that the East Ocean Dragon Clan had with other dragon clans were those from past generations. Some were Zhao Hongyu’s father’s friends, while some were elders that lived in the deep woods around East Ocean City who were willing to say good things for the East Ocean Dragon Clan. However, since they were distanced from core power now, their words were not convincing.

The East Ocean Dragon Palace could not visit other elemental dragon clans due to its high status, and those other elemental dragon clans also didn’t like visiting East Ocean since they were far away.

Now, Yuhuang Mountain had come to visit on their own, and this solved a huge headache for Zhao Guang!

Zhao Hongyu knew what was going on inside Zhao Guang’s mind, so she smiled happily. Yuhuang Mountain’s Ciyun Dragon King was a fair person. After he gets back, he would for sure help the East Ocean Dragon Clan bond with other dragon clans.

From the look of it, the East Ocean Dragon Palace would become much livelier in the future, and Premier Xia who had nothing to do at the moment would be so busy that he wouldn’t have time to rest!
