Chapter 082: Arrogance comes at a price
On the Lingxiao Treasure Hall, Zhang Tianshi lives on the right side of the dragon chair, and the four holy generalissimos occupy four directions respectively, and on the huge Lingxiao Palace, nearly a hundred immortals who are qualified to enter the court hall are gathered, and they are located on both sides of the treasure hall.
Zhao Qingshan, who was dressed in a dragon robe, sat firmly on the dragon chair, and looked solemnly at the other immortal wearing a dragon robe who was kneeling on the red carpet below, and said in a majestic tone: "Ao Qin, you have been investigating the water tribe demon immortal for more than two months, have you investigated some useful clues?" ”
Ao Qin, who was kneeling on the red carpet below, held a milky white court slip in both hands, and said unhurriedly: "Your Majesty the Jade Emperor, Weichen has submitted six investigation results in the past two months, but I don't know what the useful clues Your Majesty is referring to are ......"
"Clues about the anomalous movements of the Four Seas Tribe." Zhao Qingshan glanced at Ao Qin lightly, how could he not feel the dissatisfaction in Ao Qin's heart? But in this case, he could only ignore Ao Chin's reaction.
After hearing Zhao Qingshan's words, Ao Qin raised the Chao Jian in his hand and said: "Back to His Majesty the Jade Emperor, the Four Sea Tribes are roughly divided into seven forces, and the four demon immortals of the East China Sea Blue-backed Turtle, the South China Sea Mixed Sand Golden Jiao, the West Sea Mother Koi, and the North Sea Giant Crab are the most. ”
"In addition to these four forces, there are also three small forces that do not enter the stream, wandering between the four major forces, drifting with the tide in the four seas, and do not have much influence...... If you talk about abnormal movements, it's been a while. The leader of one of the three small forces walks around frequently with the West Sea Big Mother Koi. ”
"Oh?" Zhao Qingshan raised his eyebrows and asked, "Then have you ever found out what the leader of this small force talked about or mentioned after meeting with the Xihai Big Mother Koi?" ”
"I don't know that." Ao Qin knelt on the red carpet and said unhurriedly: "Weichen is just a person who travels all over the world, and it is already commendable to make discoveries. More specific circumstances, Wechen can't find out. ”
"Well, you've found something unusual in the four seas...... For example: Are there traces of Western barbarians found in the four seas? Zhao Qingshan suppressed the faint flames in his heart, trying to make his tone appear calmer, "Or are you suspected that it may be a Western barbarian?" ”
"This. Wechen has not found it either. Ao Qin's demeanor was respectful, but his tone was very casual, and he said: "Could it be that His Majesty the Jade Emperor suspects that the Four Seas Clan is involved with the Western barbarians? ”
"Ao Qin!!" Zhao Qingshan's face sank, and he directly slapped his palm on the armrest of the dragon chair beside him, and said in a somewhat annoyed tone: "Now I am asking you!! ”
"Oh...... Wechen knew he was wrong. Ao Qin said this, but there was no expression on his face at all, Zhao Qingshan's anger seemed to be just a breeze to him, and there was no deterrent at all. Because as long as he doesn't do something like rebellion, Heavenly Court can't punish him at all!
In the past, because it was often necessary to use the forces of the Heavenly Court to solve the thorny problems in the Four Seas, Ao Qin and the other Dragon Kings of the Four Seas also looked like grandsons after arriving in the Heavenly Court. Be respectful.
But the current status quo is that no matter whether he pretends to be a grandson or not, Heavenly Court will inevitably send immortals into the four seas to calm the chaos in the four seas...... Since this is the case, it is naturally impossible for Ao Qin to behave like Sun Tzu again.
It's just that his performance, which seems to be a matter of course, fell into Zhao Qingshan's eyes. But it is no less than his great contempt for Heavenly Court, and his great contempt for Heavenly Power!
As the Lord of Heavenly Court, the supreme existence of the Three Realms and Six Realms, how could Zhao Qingshan endure the provocation of a mere South China Sea Dragon King? His face gradually lengthened, and Zhao Qingshan said with a hint of anger: "You have been in the Four Seas for more than two months, but you have only collected some information that is not classified at all...... Bold Ao Qin, are you perfunctory? Are you provoking the majesty of Heaven?!! ”…,
Zhao Qingshan was furious here, and the Four Holy Generalissimos who guarded the Lingxiao Treasure Hall set his eyes on Ao Qin, and there was a faint aura of slaughter, which instantly shrouded Ao Qin's body.
However, Ao Qin didn't take this murderous aura to heart at all, he smiled calmly, and said: "Back to His Majesty the Jade Emperor, Wei Chen doesn't dare to provoke any majesty of the Heavenly Court, Wei Chen is just talking about a real fact, isn't Your Majesty never heard the words "Loyal and Contrary to Ear?" ”
A big hat was directly buckled on Zhao Qingshan's head, Ao Qin looked at Zhao Qingshan calmly, and continued: "Wechen is just a small Dragon King of the South China Sea, in terms of Taoism, mana, and supernatural powers, the heavenly court where elites gather, any immortal can easily compare Wechen, just ask Your Majesty, with the strength of Wechen, what important clues should be collected in order to meet Your Majesty's requirements?" I hope Your Majesty will make it clear! ”
Zhao Qingshan, who was sitting on the dragon chair, was choked by Ao Qin's words and felt a tightness in his chest, he admitted that Ao Qin's words were indeed correct, but Ao Qin's tone was not at all the attitude that a courtier should have in the face of the king!
But...... Including Ao Qin, the Dragon King of the Four Seas was the Lord of the Four Seas directly selected by the Heavenly Dao at the beginning, and it was formed almost at the same time as the appearance of the Heavenly Court, and the Heavenly Court's control over this kind of immortal was much weaker.
As long as these immortals didn't do anything rebellious, Heavenly Court couldn't send them to the Slashing Immortal Terrace...... And this is also the biggest reliance of these immortals, such as the Dragon King of the South China Sea in front of him, Ao Qin.
Taking a deep breath and balancing the surging flames in his heart, Zhao Qingshan temporarily suppressed the urge to beat Ao Qin to the three hundred boards, trying to make his tone appear calmer, "Oh? What Aiqing means is that I should set a clear goal for you, and then you will do your best to do it, right? ”
"Your Majesty." Seeing that Zhao Qingshan's previous anger was obviously suppressed, the corners of Ao Qin's mouth picked up imperceptibly, he held the Chao Jian, and said: "But Weichen has a saying that in front, Weichen can only do his best, but there is no guarantee that he will be able to succeed." ”
"Hehe......" Zhao Qingshan suddenly smiled, this was what he was waiting for!
Under Ao Qin's slightly confused eyes, Zhao Qingshan stood up directly from the dragon chair and said, "Aiqing is worthy of being the pillar of my heavenly court, of course I know that a person's strength is very limited, even if Aiqing can't complete the task I gave you, I won't blame you......"
Waving his hand to stop Ao Qin, who was about to speak to add annotations to himself, there was a faint trace of indifference flickering in Zhao Qingshan's eyes, "When the Heavenly Court was first built and the Dragon Palace was established, the Heavenly Dao gave the Four Seas Spring, also known as the Four Seas Spring, which was in the hands of the Dragon King of the Four Seas. ”
Ao Qin couldn't understand why Zhao Qingshan would mention this old story of old sesame seeds and rotten grain, but Ao Qin felt a faint crisis and was rapidly approaching him!
Without waiting for Ao Qin to speak, Zhao Qingshan continued on the stage: "This Siyang Spring, since that time, has become the foundation for the survival of trillions of creatures in the four seas, and has also become the unique symbol of the Dragon King of the Four Seas...... But I don't know, did Aiqing bring this spring with her? ”
"I ......" Ao Qin was dumbfounded, that Siyang Spring was at the bottom of the Four Seas Dragon Palace, how could he bring it with him? Zhao Qingshan asked this question, what is it for? Ao Qin couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart, and hurriedly said: "Back to His Majesty the Jade Emperor, this Siyang Spring is ......."
"It's not on Aiqing's body, is it?" Zhao Qingshan smiled and nodded: "Although this Siyang Spring is a blessing given by Heaven and is located at the bottom of the Four Seas, it is also a part of my Heavenly Court, not as rumored by the outside world, Siyang Spring is the unique treasure of the Dragon King of the Four Seas, this point, Aiqing will not deny it, right?" ”…,
A simple sentence directly forced Ao Qin into a dilemma, and in the face of Zhao Qingshan's slightly sneering eyes, Ao Qin couldn't help but panic.
Zhao Qingshan used a lot of words to explain the importance of Yangquan from beginning to end, but these are not the point, the point is that Zhao Qingshan used these words to emphasize the ruling scope of the Heavenly Court!
Yes, although Siyangquan is a treasure given by the Heavenly Dao, it has always been managed by the Dragon King of the Four Seas, and it has already formed a habit for thousands of years, but it has not formed a rule, Siyangquan is not the exclusive property of the Dragon King of the Four Seas, because when the Heavenly Court was first built, the Four Seas were part of the Heavenly Court!
At first, Ao Qin hadn't been able to react, but at this moment, he vaguely understood Zhao Qingshan's little abacus...... This is to force him to a dead end!!
If he objected to the point of view put forward by Zhao Qingshan at this time, then it was very good, the four seas have been part of the jurisdiction of the Heavenly Court since ancient times, and once Ao Qin's side objected to the fact that Siyangquan also belonged to the Heavenly Court, it was equivalent to opposing the Four Seas as part of the Heavenly Court...... This is the great sin of rebellion, and it is really fatal!!
However, if you choose to agree...... The Four Ocean Springs are all treasures of the Heavenly Court, and the Dragon King of the Four Seas is only managing the Four Ocean Springs on behalf of the Heavenly Court, and this tone will be determined immediately.
The key is that the current Four Seas Dragon Palace has fallen into the hands of demons, once Zhao Qingshan puts forward some difficult requirements for strongmen, or if it is a task......
Ao Qin, who was still an old god and didn't seem to take Zhao Qingshan to heart at all, suddenly broke out in a cold sweat...... Standing there stunned, it was hard to come back to my senses for a long time!
At this time, Zhao Qingshan also reminded me lightly, "I don't have much time to waste here, yes or no, Aiqing should give me a clear answer as soon as possible!" ”――
