235: Chapter 180 Houtu Makes a Move_2 235: Chapter 180 Houtu Makes a Move_2 The Dragon Mother was somewhat reluctant, holding onto her daughter’s sleeve.
Lady Dragon of Wealth gritted her teeth and said, “Father, Mother, I want to go with the Great Saint, so I won’t stay in the Dragon Palace to keep you company anymore.”
Upon hearing this, Ao Guang and the Dragon Mother couldn’t help but smile bitterly.
The Dragon Mother sighed, “Indeed, a child will not stay under their parents’ control forever.
Oh well, go with the Great Saint then.
Being by his side, we won’t worry about someone bullying you, nor about you suffering any losses.”
A blush floated up on Lady Dragon of Wealth’s face.
Sun Wukong had intended to persuade Lady Dragon of Wealth to stay with her parents a little longer.
But seeing the joyful look on Dragon Girl’s face, he took back the words that were about to leave his lips.
“Let’s go together.”
Sun Wukong said.
A glint of joy flashed in Dragon Girl’s eyes, and she quickly followed behind the Great Saint, her face filled with delight.
Watching this scene, Ao Guang and the Dragon Mother shook their heads; their daughter was beyond saving, and had completely fallen for the Great Saint.
Sun Wukong gave a bow, and then departed with Dragon Girl.
It wasn’t until Sun Wukong had disappeared that the Dragon Mother showed a worried expression.
She glanced at Ao Guang, hesitant to speak.
“My lady, say what you wish to say.”
Ao Guang smiled slightly, well aware of his wife’s concerns.
The Dragon Mother then said, “Husband, should our Dragon Clan really take control of the Thunder Department?
Don’t you think that’s being too high-profile?
Our Dragon Clan has existed since the beginning of the heavens because we’ve kept a low profile, which is why we could survive up to now.
The Phoenix and the Qilin are already rare to see, and now that the Three Realms are in chaos, if our Dragon Clan stands out, we will surely become a target for others and get embroiled in major troubles.”
The Dragon Mother was quite worried and didn’t want the Dragon Clan to be caught in the turmoil.
Ao Guang gave a bitter smile and said, “If the Ancient Gods from beyond the heavens return, who can remain uninvolved?
Our Dragon Clan is also among the living beings between heaven and earth; naturally, it has the responsibility to protect this world.
Right now, it looks like only Sun Wukong and Great Emperor Ziwei have the potential to safeguard this land.”
“What about the Jade Emperor?”
The Dragon Mother’s face was full of confusion.
Logically, wasn’t the Jade Emperor much stronger than both Great Emperor Ziwei and Sun Wukong?
Why did her husband have faith in Sun Wukong and the others but not in the Jade Emperor?
“The Jade Emperor?”
Ao Guang’s smile turned into a sneer.
He said with a cold laugh, “The majesty of the Great Heavenly Venerate is indeed unparalleled in the Three Realms, and he is a qualified Supreme of the Three Realms.
But he is too self-confident, even to the point of not taking the Ancient Gods from beyond the heavens seriously.
How can such a person be a good Supreme of the Three Realms?”
The Dragon Mother sighed.
She knew that what Ao Guang said made sense.
She knew very well how powerful the Ancient Gods were because they had lived through that era themselves.
Glancing at the Dragon Mother, Ao Guang said, “Once the Department of Water is established, we will lift the restrictions and restore our Heavenly Venerate form.
Then, who would dare to underestimate our Sea Dragon Clan?”
If any immortal god from the Three Realms were here to hear Ao Guang’s words, they would have been greatly surprised.
Ao Guang, who had always displayed only the cultivation of a Celestial Immortal, was actually a Heavenly Venerate.
From his words, it seemed that all the Dragon Kings of the Four Seas had used some method to suppress their cultivation at the level of Celestial Immortal, but their true strength was actually at the level of Heavenly Venerate.
The Dragon Mother didn’t say anything more; she now understood that Ao Guang was truly determined to lead the Dragon Clan to prominence.
“These years have indeed been hard on you.
Despite being so strong, you’ve had to bow down to others.
It has indeed been grievous.”
The Dragon Mother was understanding.
Sometimes when she saw Ao Guang and the others acting subservient in front of immortals who were inferior to them, even the Dragon Mother felt indignant, wanting to go out and give the offender a beating.
Now that they were discarding their disguise, they would no longer have to suffer such indignities.
One day, Ao Guang sent for his three brothers and shared the decision with them.
The other three Dragon Kings immediately agreed.
“I’ve had enough of this nonsense.
Once I’ve regained my strength, I’m going to confront that Sandalwood Merit Buddha and demand an explanation,” Ao Run said angrily.
He had always harbored grievances about Little White Dragon’s affair and sought revenge for Little White Dragon.
Once he regained his Heavenly Venerate Mana, killing a mere Sandalwood Merit Buddha would be within his power.
Moreover, they now had the support of the Great Emperor Ziwei.
In the last conflict among the Four Heavenly Kings, Ziwei ascended to the position of a higher-ranking Great Heavenly Venerate.
The strength displayed by Great Emperor Ziwei’s camp had caused all in the Three Realms to take notice.
Although everyone understood that Great Emperor Ziwei owed much to Sun Wukong’s assistance for that performance.
But allies were also a reflection of one’s strength, especially an ally as steadfast as Sun Wukong.
They awaited Taibai’s arrival to discuss the specific steps.
Sun Wukong, accompanied by Dragon Girl, flew towards the Heavenly Palace.
“Great Saint, why not use the Somersault Cloud?”
Lady Dragon of Wealth asked curiously.
Although the cloud Sun Wukong was using was very fast even without the Somersault Cloud, it was obviously not normal.
Sun Wukong gave an embarrassed smile and said, “Using the Somersault Cloud in front of a lady is somewhat indecent.
This cloud is an Art of Flying I learned with Dongbin.
Although it’s a little slower, it’s still quite elegant.”
Of course, when Sun Wukong mentioned slow, he was talking about covering thirty thousand li in a blink, which was unbelievably fast compared to other immortals.
Lady Dragon of Wealth suppressed a smile and spoke softly, “The Great Saint still cares about such things.”
Sun Wukong scratched his head.
He chuckled and said, “Old Sun isn’t some uncultured wild monkey, ignorant of propriety.
Naturally, I care about these things.
Alright, the Purple Forbidden Enclosure is just ahead.
I really don’t want to see that Ziwei guy.”
Lady Dragon of Wealth laughed.
She knew what Sun Wukong was afraid of.
However, recently, Great Emperor Ziwei’s behavior had indeed been rather astonishing.
