Chapter 613 203 Moon God: Hurry and reply, a great disaster is upon you!
In the end, Ao Qing didn't change back to her original form. Wang Mu directly flew out on his sword, taking her with him.
What need was there for support? They were cultivators; why would they need such primitive actions?
Leaving the Dongling Abyss Sea, the pressure on Ao Qing wasn't nearly as intense. As a divine beast of the water, her recovery rate was exceptionally fast; as long as she wasn't within the Dongling Sea Abyss, the great ocean was her home.
「They left the Dongling Sea Abyss.」
"This Flying Sword of yours is quite nice…" Ao Qing patted the Flying Sword beneath her with her tail, feeling its solidity and a strong spiritual essence. As a Divinity Transformation cultivator, she wasn't skilled in Artifact Refining, but she could still identify the qualities of these Magic Treasures and Magic Artifacts.
This Flying Sword was powerful.
"The Green Blood Sword has spirituality," Wang Mu nodded. "It qualifies as a Taoist-level Magic Treasure, I suppose."
"Isn't it more than that?" Ao Qing paused. "I feel this sword… inexplicably, it seems to reject me a little."
"Rejects you?"
Wang Mu was startled.
Since it was forged, the Green Blood Sword hadn't truly been used…
This was mainly because he had plenty of Magic Treasures. Many enemies didn't require the Green Blood Sword; the Wine Sword Gourd alone was often enough. When facing Heavenly Demons, he would directly bring out the Demon Suppression God Seal.
He often encountered enemies who were too strong for him to defeat, such as Divinity Transformation or even Tribulation Crossing-level opponents like General Yu Lin from Li State. Against them, using the Green Blood Sword might not guarantee victory, so he simply chose not to use it, lest the sword be damaged.
In short, Wang Mu had protected it too well. He'd hardly ever unsealed it.
Actually, in terms of power, the Green Blood Sword was definitely the strongest Magic Treasure he possessed.
This was a Twinborn Magical Treasure. The other sword, the Green-blue Sword, was in Heroine Yan's hands. As a special pair of romantic twin swords, they inherently possessed spiritual nature, the attribute of unity, and were even capable of borrowing a portion of Heroine Yan's strength.
Wang Mu hadn't used it simply because Heroine Yan had been injured during her Tribulation Crossing. How could he possibly draw upon her strength then?
The rejection now was likely…
Could it be she sensed it from her end? Wang Mu's pupils contracted; he almost wanted to kick Ao Qing right off the sword. Impossible. It's too far; how could she possibly sense it? I'm just using the Green Blood Sword to carry someone. Why would it reject her?
Wang Mu shook his head.
However, just to be safe, Wang Mu released another Flying Sword, the Dayan Unlimited Sword, and continued forward with Ao Qing on it.
"There's no rejection this time, right?"
"Hmm… no." Ao Qing nodded. "This Flying Sword of yours is truly interesting… rather peculiar…"
Wang Mu gave a few nonchalant laughs.
「Soon, they were approaching the Dragon Palace again.」
In reality, not much time had passed—only a few days.
"You've returned so quickly?"
Upon seeing the two returning, the Old Dragon King was momentarily stunned. "You didn't stay a bit longer?"
"It's resolved, so naturally, we returned," Wang Mu said. "Dragon King, I've taken care of the foreign entity in the Abyss Sea for you. Now, about that Five-Colored Divine Gold…"
"Taken care of?" The Old Dragon King was startled, his gaze involuntarily shifting to Ao Qing beside him.
Ao Qing gritted her teeth slightly and nodded. "Yes. When we were coming out, I confirmed with General Lan. He said the Abyss Sea has calmed, and the Dragon Skeletons of our ancestors have also settled down."
The Old Dragon King drew in a sharp breath of cold air.
The middle-aged woman beside him nudged him lightly, as if to say, "See? They really handled it."
"You two… nothing happened between you?" the Old Dragon King asked after a moment of silence, looking at them.
Ao Qing was startled. She instantly understood her father's implication and retorted angrily, "What do you mean, 'nothing happened'? Father, what are you thinking?"
"The Abyss Sea was so dangerous! I even had to act against our ancestors… and you're still wondering if 'something happened'? We almost didn't make it back!"
"Almost didn't make it back?" The Old Dragon King's eyes lit up. "So, this little cultivator saved you? In that case, you owe him a great debt! Why not repay him by offering yourself? Human cultivators are fond of such gestures, aren't they?"
Ao Qing was so angry her Dragon's Horns turned red and trembled violently.
"Not at all," Wang Mu quickly waved his hand. "We merely helped each other. If Miss Ao hadn't delayed them for me, with my cultivation level, I wouldn't have had the chance to subdue that Heavenly Demon."
This Old Dragon King really knew how to push his luck.
"Mutual help is excellent!" The Old Dragon King laughed heartily. "Since that's the case, I certainly must give you the Five-Colored Divine Gold. After all, you've done my Dongling Dragon Palace a huge favor."
Wang Mu inwardly breathed a sigh of relief. Finally, it's within reach.
"However," the Old Dragon King said, his eyes narrowing into a smile, "this Five-Colored Divine Gold isn't actually in my Dragon Palace."
"Ah?" Wang Mu was taken aback. What does he mean by that?
"Father, how can you go back on your word?" Ao Qing frowned beside him. "He fulfilled his promise! Although the Five-Colored Divine Gold is a Supreme Treasure of our Dragon Palace, when has our Dongling Dragon Palace ever broken its word?"
"Oho!" the Old Dragon King exclaimed. "Already taking his side, are we?"
"Indeed."
"..." Ao Qing.
Veins throbbed on Ao Qing's forehead, and her dragon tail went rigid. She almost couldn't stop herself from wanting to thrash her father.
"Alright, stop being coy," the middle-aged woman beside him chided the Old Dragon King with a glare.
"This Five-Colored Divine Gold is Innate Divine Gold," the Old Dragon King said, his expression turning solemn. "It is only produced in our Dongling Dragon Palace, and production has ceased. The so-called Innate Divine Gold refers to divine artifacts that were produced in our Dongling Sea Domain during the great cosmic changes in ancient times."
