Chapter 127: Chapter 126, The Old Dragon King Lodges a Complaint (Subscribe Please)

The Old Dragon King, amidst the barrage of attacks, fled in panic, running helter-skelter with his head in his hands and crying out in fear: "Stop hitting me, stop hitting me! You’re bullying an old man, ah!"

Although he appeared to stumble and looked very disheveled, not a single attack landed on him. Instead, the ones besieging him were howling in pain from being struck by their own teammates’ respectful salutes, each of them vomiting blood from serious injuries.

The intense fluctuations from the battle drew in nature’s spiritual energy, attracting more and more Jie Sect Disciples to gather around. They watched from a distance with teasing laughter, pointing and making mocking remarks.

Suddenly, on Three Immortals Island, two entwined auspicious clouds vanished. Bai Jin and Yun Xiao rose to their feet and turned their heads towards the direction of the battle.

Yun Xiao said calmly, "Senior Brother, it seems something has happened."

Bai Jin frowned and said, "Let’s go! Take a look." Both of them flew towards the direction of the battle.

"Who dares to run amok in Jie Sect?" A crisp, angry shout resounded, and a bright light streaked across.

The Old Dragon King hurriedly dodged, and with a boom, the great sea was cleaved open by a deep ravine.

Gui Ling Saint Mother, dressed in Yellow Clothes, floated over, looking gravely at the Old Dragon King. This old man was no simple figure.

"Kill~" The group, infuriated and humiliated, continued their assault on the Old Dragon King.

The Old Dragon King kept retreating, his appearance one of terror and trepidation.

The Gui Ling Saint Mother once again gripped her Immortal Sword tightly, her gaze fixed firmly on the Old Dragon King.

"Everyone, cease your attack!" A loud shout came from the sky.

Bai Jin and Yun Xiao arrived and stood atop a Cloud Head.

The Old Dragon King cried out with joy, "Brother Bai Jin!" He quickly leaped up, flying towards Bai Jin.

Gui Ling Saint Mother hesitated for a moment, then loosened her grip.

Boom~ Several attacks landed where the Old Dragon King had been standing moments before, directly blasting apart the sea and raising sky-high waves.

The Old Dragon King frantically called out, "Brother Bai Jin, save me!"

Damn it all~ Is he a dragon or an eel?!

The more than ten wounded individuals approached the Old Dragon King with towering rage in their eyes, completely ignoring Bai Jin’s words.

"Presumptuous!"

With one step forward, Bai Jin released the overwhelming might of a Taiyi Golden Immortal, suddenly halting the ten-plus individuals mid-air, their mana frozen within them.

Among the onlookers, many newly joined Outer Disciples looked at Bai Jin with surprise in their eyes, recognizing him as a Taiyi Golden Immortal.

"Shi Ji~"

Bai Jin called out angrily, with no response.

It suddenly struck Bai Jin that his two competent secretaries, Shi Ji and Gu Liang, seemed to have gone into seclusion.

"Zhao Gongming~"

Zhao Gongming flew over from afar, bowed respectfully, and said in a serious tone, "Senior Brother!"

Bai Jin spoke gravely, "Take their identification, keep a close watch on them. After I understand the reasons behind this, they will be dealt with."

"Yes!" Zhao Gongming flew towards those more than ten people.

"How dare you~"

"Who are you?"

"I belong to the Senior Disciple, who dares to take my identification?"

...

Those more than ten people suddenly grew noisy, roaring angrily, stubborn and defiant.

Bai Jin disregarded their shouting and beckoned, "Your Majesty Dragon King, please inside!"

The Old Dragon King also gestured, bowing with a smile, "Brother Bai Jin, after you!"

Gui Ling Saint Mother suddenly frowned and said, "Senior Brother, where are you taking him?"

Bai Jin turned his head with a smile and said, "This is the East Sea Dragon King, our neighbor at Jie Sect. As the Outer Disciple Leader, it is only right that I extend warm hospitality to a visiting neighbor."

The East Sea Old Dragon King quickly waved his hands, saying, "I am not worthy, not worthy!"

Gui Ling Saint Mother’s eyebrows arched, disapprovingly she said, "He attacked our Jie Sect Disciples?"

Bai Jin smiled and said, "I will look into this thoroughly. Junior Sister need not trouble herself over the affairs of the Outer Door."

"You..." Gui Ling Saint Mother revealed anger in her eyes.

Bai Jin and the Old Dragon King flew towards Three Lights Immortal Island while conversing.

"The last time I saw Brother Bai Jin, I knew he was no ordinary person! I didn’t expect that he is actually a disciple of a Saint, with such an honored status. My apologies for any disrespect~"

Bai Jin chuckled and replied, "Where is the Old Dragon King coming from!

The Azure Dragon Venerable Sage and many powerful members of the Dragon Clan protect the Primordial World at the Far East, their merit is boundless. They are the truly admirable ones!"

"Ah~ Brother, you flatter me too much. Born and raised in the Primordial World, it is our duty to protect it, not something to be praised for."

"Your Majesty, the Dragon King is being too modest, and that’s not good. Although modesty is a virtue, one should not forsake honor either!"

"Cough cough~"

"Does Your Majesty, the Dragon King, have a cold?"

"No, I’m just moved!"

...

Under the gaze of many, the two gradually moved farther away.

Once they left, many newly initiated disciples immediately became curious, and the name of Bai Jin, the Outer Door’s leading disciple, became famous throughout the Jie Sect.

In the meeting hall within the Bird’s Nest on Three Lights Immortal Island.

Bai Jin sat in the main seat, with the Old Dragon King seated below.

Bai Jin asked curiously, "Dragon King, how did you get into a conflict with them?"

The Old Dragon King replied helplessly, "To be honest, it was my Dragon Clan that acted rashly. A realm under our protection was suddenly slaughtered, and the Shrimp Soldiers and Crab Generals tasked with guarding it suffered heavy casualties.

Rumors suddenly spread inside the Dragon Palace, blaming the disciples of the Saints for the incident. Some of our clan were swayed by the rumors and wanted to come to Jie Sect for answers.

But I know well the distinguished status of the disciples of the Saints, all of whom are moral True Immortals. How could they commit such atrocities? I immediately put a stop to the rumors and came to the island to apologize to the Saint."

Bai Jin’s expression turned grim, and he asked, "Are you sure they are just rumors?"

The Old Dragon King nodded firmly and said, "They are nothing but rumors, and I have already punished the rumor-mongers severely."

"It’s good that they are just rumors. In your opinion, Your Majesty, who might be behind this?"

A hint of puzzlement flashed in the Old Dragon King’s eyes. I’ve made my point rather clear, hasn’t Bai Jin understood yet? He said with a bitter face, "If I knew who did it, that would be great. I really can’t figure it out!"

Bai Jin stroked his chin in thought and said, "We of Jie Sect are all honest and upright. It definitely wasn’t us.

Eliminate the impossible, and what remains must be the truth." He slapped his thigh and exclaimed, "I’ve got it! It must be the work of the Demon Clan, taking revenge for their failed attempt at stealing the Nine Dragons Incense Chariot last time."

The Old Dragon King was dumbfounded to hear him dump the blame on the Demon Clan, but it didn’t matter. He said as if suddenly enlightened, "So it was the Demon Clan. No wonder I saw demon script on the battlefield."

Bai Jin stated solemnly, "Since Jie Sect stands in the East Sea, it is our responsibility and duty to maintain its peace. I will investigate this matter thoroughly to seek justice for the Dragon Clan and prevent such incidents from happening again."

The Old Dragon King stood up, bowed deeply with emotion and said, "Old Dragon here thanks Brother Bai Jin on behalf of the myriad creatures of the East Sea. Brother Bai Jin truly is a righteous person!"

Bai Jin immediately flew down to support the Old Dragon King, saying sincerely, "Old Dragon King, we are all creatures of the East Sea; at the end of the day, we are all one family, so of course, we should understand, help, and love each other in unity."

The Old Dragon King looked up, and their sincere gazes met. The same thought crossed both of their minds: clever fox (old fox).

Bai Jin let go his hand, showing concern as he asked, "How often do such things happen?"

"Not often, just two or three times," replied the Old Dragon King with a sad tone.

"Damn it!" Bai Jin cursed angrily, then bowed deeply and said, "It is my dereliction of duty for not taking care of these matters. I apologize here."

The Old Dragon King quickly stood up and said, "That should not be! You are a Saint’s Disciple after all. Besides, you are not to blame for this; it’s the doings of the Demon Clan."

Bai Jin blushed and said earnestly, "I shall not keep Your Majesty, the Dragon King, any longer. I will go and investigate this matter right away."

With gratitude, the Old Dragon King said, "Thank you, Brother Bai Jin."

Bai Jin reached out and held the Old Dragon King’s hand warmly, "Who else if not family? Since we are family, your matters are my matters."

The Old Dragon King nodded with a chuckle and said, "Exactly, we’re family."

Then hesitantly added, "Since we’re family, I have another favor to ask of you, if you don’t mind?"

Bai Jin looked at the Old Dragon King speechlessly, thinking, what an unreserved fellow! Then he responded cheerfully, "What do you mean? When one is in trouble, all come to aid. Just speak up, and if it’s within my power, I won’t delay."

The Old Dragon King sighed and said through gritted teeth, "It’s about my son, Aoguang. He’s vanished again in the blink of an eye and even stole a precious magic treasure from our Dragon Clan."
