My Senior Brother is Too Steady

Chapter 762: Side Story 1: Traveling Together

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

In a trench not far from the Crystal Palace, under the vast smoke of the East Ocean,

Black shadows flashed past. Most of them were handsome men and beautiful women with slender bodies. Occasionally, there would be a few shadows of True Dragons. Most of them disappeared in a flash and entered the depths of the trench.

In the place where the water spiritual energy was rich, there was a natural array formation protecting it.

Hundreds of True Dragons quickly gathered. They maintained their dragon bodies outside and scanned their surroundings vigilantly.

Dozens of young dragons on the inner side transformed into human forms. They... had horns on their heads and tails on their backs. They were dressed in embroidered clothes and bright armor. Their auras were extraordinary.

The old custom of the dragon race was that male dragons were handsome and charming while female dragons were beautiful and alluring.

The young dragon children bowed to the stone platform in front of them and said in unison,

“Welcome, Your Highness!”

A little water rippled, and a series of bubbles rose. The water on the stone platform distorted, and a thin figure stepped out.

He had the appearance of a young man, but he was already quite powerful. There were a few streams of light around him, making him feel even more outstanding.

Ao Yi.

That name was not unfamiliar to the current Primordial World.

He was the most brilliant star of the new generation of the dragon race. He was the Grand Marshal of the Heavenly Courts and commanded a million Heavenly Soldiers. He could also mobilize the experts of the dragon race and had a background in Jie School.

He would never remove his armor in front of the Lingxiao Hall and was known in the Immortal Peach Garden.

Naturally, whenever an immortal talked about Ao Yi, he would inevitably mention Ao Yi’s most important identity.

That man’s sworn brother.

That long story had to be told a few years after Ao Yi broke out of his shell. At that time, he already had the thought of worrying about his race. He thought about how to shatter the hypocritical dream that would make his clansmen intoxicated.

Later, the dream did not shatter. The dragon race went to the sky and opened a completely different path.

The dragon race could continue to reproduce in the Primordial World, rich the four seas, and rule the Sea Clan all because of Ao Yi’s decision back then.

That’s all!

He had exchanged it with the words ‘Brother Sect Master’.

Now, the dragon race has reached a crucial moment...

Ao Yi pursed his lips and looked serious. He glanced at the dragon children in front of him and sighed.

“Ah.”

The group of young dragons, who were full of martial virtue, could not help but be nervous. A few dragons were already eager to give it a try. They wanted to shed blood for their older brother, who was of the same generation as them.

However, the eldest brother was still the eldest brother. The Eldest Prince of the East Ocean, Ao Jia, was still around. Ao Yi was only the Second Prince.

“Your Highness, did things not go smoothly?”

“Father, you haven’t been asking about trivial matters recently.” Ao Yi shook his head with a solemn expression. “Now that the dragon race has reached the crossroad, we have to make a choice. We cannot always rely on the Sect Leader. Otherwise, we would never be able to repay the favor. I want to cut the Gordian knot. What do you guys think?”

“Um...”

“What happened today is indeed troublesome.”

“This matter is very important. If I rashly make a certain move, I’m afraid it will cause many chain reactions.”

“We have to be careful.”

A dragon son pondered. “Your Highness, if the King doesn’t allow it, wouldn’t it be... a crime to plot and rebel?”

“No.” The corners of Ao Yi’s mouth twitched slightly. “After all, this is something that only young people like us have to face.”

The dragons pondered.

“Your Highness, it’s safer to discuss with His Majesty and the elders.”

“Although this matter only involves the young dragons of the four seas, because of the Dao Fruit of Longevity, we can’t say that the elders in the race have lost their right to speak. We have to think carefully before acting.”

“Your Highness, it’s not that we don’t trust you, but firstly, we can’t do anything beyond our authority. Secondly, we can’t take risks. It’s better to report it to the elders and let them decide.”

“Second Brother,” a young girl with a head and horns whispered. “Why are you... not steady?”

“I!”

Ao Yi stared at the clansmen who were either deep in thought or serious. He silently raised his hand and punched his dragon heart a few times. Only then did he squeeze out an ugly smile.

That was the obvious result of promoting the sect’s Steadiness Sutra.

Did they think that I am checking their Steadiness Sutra homework?

It’s just a book about advocating against underage dragons getting married at a young age. Is there a need to alarm the elders?

Even if the dragon race had worked harder in the recent hundreds of years, wouldn’t there only be these underage dragons?

Can’t everyone just restrain their actions?

However, at this point...

“I’ll report this matter to the elders later,” Ao Yi said calmly. The dragons heaved a sigh of relief.

Ao Yi said, “Let’s put this matter aside for now. I gathered everyone here this time mainly for the Crystal Palace banquet in a hundred years. You must have received the news. The human race, the Heavenly Courts, the Netherworld, the Magi of the North Continent, and the various great mystical abilities of the trichiliocosm will all receive invitations from the dragon race. The banquet this time is meant for showing the foundation of the dragon race and distributing some of the dragon race’s treasures to save some luck for the dragon race. At that time, we have to do something.”

A female dragon who was slightly closer frowned and asked, “Spread treasures to accumulate luck? What do you mean?”

Ao Yi shook his head. “The God of Fortune said so, it should be right.”

“It’s what this senior said. It should be true. Why don’t you donate it to the Heavenly Courts?”

“Are you stupid? If you donate it to the Heavenly Courts, won’t others say that the Heavenly Courts are supported by the dragon race? The Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother will be embarrassed. Why have you become so silly after going to the North Ocean for a few days?”

“I’m not! Hmph, what vulgar words!”

“Alright,” Ao Yi frowned and shouted. The trench immediately quietened down.

Rubbing his eyebrows, Ao Yi said, “Choose sixteen people from the dragon children. According to the rules of the dragon race, dance for a while. Don’t be shy. Who wants to come?”

The hundreds of dragons present fell silent for a while and retreated half a claw.

Ao Yi was speechless.

“I will try to invite the Sect Master to attend the ceremony.”

The dragon ladies’ eyes lit up. However, before they could do anything, they saw streams of light flashing and black shadows spreading in front of them. A group of dragon sons rushed to Ao Yi and activated their red dragon eyes.

The scene was rather lively.

After struggling for half a day, Ao Yi had finally finished his business. He was actually discussing the topic of the young dragon race and forming a dance etiquette team.

It could not be helped. Ever since the battle of the Purple Cloud Palace, a certain sect master of a sect who did not want anyone to mention his name had almost become an idol of the dragon race.

The dragon race had been aggrieved for a few eras previously. They had been oppressed by the name of Hong Jun for a few eras. Finally, they could be considered to have been freed. It was normal for them to release their emotions.

After settling the serious matters, Ao Yi encouraged the dragon children and asked them to cultivate and do more good deeds. He did not want them to mess around and get into romantic relationships. He wanted them to travel outside to increase their reputation.

The current Primordial World seemed to be at the threshold of a long peaceful era.

Ao Yi had heard his Brother Sect Master mutter something decades ago...

“I didn’t contribute enough blood and sacrifices. Instead, I became an unstable factor in this era. Although I had thought of that previously, I didn’t expect it to be so troublesome.”

He probably felt that if the Primordial Three Realms were immersed in a peaceful atmosphere, it would definitely cause such problems.

The balance existed in the world.

It was dangerous to forget to fight.

After Ao Yi said, “I’ll say a few more words.” The dragon children left together. However, more than ten dragon children stayed and muttered to Ao Yi.

“Second Brother, there’s still no news of that sullen-faced old Daoist priest that you drew.”

“However, Second Brother, don’t worry. We will definitely work harder and secretly search for experts above the Heaven Immortal realm of the human race. However, the trichiliocosm is too big. It might take some time.”

“And we can’t rule out the possibility that it’s a fake face.”

Ao Yi could only frown and nod. He sighed slightly.

He had indeed overcome his fear back then.

However, the feud back then had yet to be settled!

If he were to find that sullen-faced old Daoist priest, he would definitely!

He would do that first, then do that, and finally do that!

“By the way, Second Brother,” a new crown prince of the West Ocean Dragon Palace whispered. “Previously, an elder of the West Ocean was working outside. He said that he saw the Fairy Youqin. Should I tell the people at Xuandu City about this? Didn’t they say that all the big shots are paying attention to the safety of this fairy?”

“Yes.” Ao Yi shook his head. “There’s no need to investigate further. The news over there was deliberately released and spread throughout the Three Realms to protect Miss Youqin. This fairy has an extraordinary relationship with the Sect Master. We can’t interfere in these matters.”

“Aren’t we going to take the initiative to express our goodwill?”

“Don’t do anything unnecessary,” Ao Yi said firmly. “Now, the position of the dragon race in the world is very appropriate. The entire race cannot have any ambition. Otherwise, it will definitely cause a huge calamity.”

The dragon sons were not stupid. They nodded and answered with solemn expressions.

Ao Yi cupped his hands and said that he wanted to take advantage of the Heavenly Courts’ break to meet his beloved wife. He took the initiative to bid farewell. The dragon sons returned the greeting. The dragon sons who had suggested using Youqin Xuanya to express their goodwill just now looked ashamed.

However, before Ao Yi could turn around, a jade token suddenly trembled in his sleeve. Wisps of immortal light seeped out of his embroidered sleeve.

Ao Yi looked down and could not help but be stunned.

“Second Brother, this is...”

Ao Yi fell silent and did not say anything for a long time. He raised his hand and picked up the immortal talisman that was trembling continuously. He flipped it around and observed it, as if he was confirming if it was broken.

When he calmed down, he could not help but sigh. He looked around and whispered, “There’s nothing else. You guys can go back first.”

Then, he turned around and flew quickly. Before he could rush out of the trench, he had already transformed into the Azure Dragon True Body that was tens of thousands of feet long. In the next moment, he rushed through the seawater and flew towards the sky.

There was no other reason.

That jade token was the gathering order of Xuandu. Not only did Ao Yi have one, but all the big shots of the Primordial World who were related to the Xuandu City had one each.

This was the first time the jade token had been activated. There was only one explanation for this situation.

Something big had happened in Xuandu City.
