Chapter 745: Anxious and Fearful

The night is not yet over.

Dragon People swim and patrol, white sturgeons rest in the lotus fields, their fins flicking lightly, stirring up a little dust.

Until a big black fish swims in, rushing and crashing, plunging fiercely into the silt, arching out tender green lotus roots, chewing mud and sand, breaking the quiet and peace.

Large groups of yellow smoke rise, shrouding the forest.

The white sturgeon wants to stop it, but is pulled by the patrolling Dragon People, letting the big black fish do as it pleases.

August, the harvest season for lotus roots and lotus seeds; the fat catfish habitually runs into the lotus fields of the Dragon People tribe to eat and drink.

The elders love the house and its crow, being just as tolerant of the few water beasts beside Liang Qu, having issued permission orders early on. The Dragon People are accustomed to this, taking the initiative to move several sturdy green lotus roots.

Long Long Zong Yin invites the two into the house, and sends someone to call the Great and Second Elders.

"Master Liang, for no reason, why say Long Eying is going to be promoted? We Dragon People are not like demon beasts. Just crossing the three tribulations requires taking long breath like the human race. You gave Long Yanrui spirit fish, so you must know..."

The so-called Dragon People collecting Sun Flame to exchange for Size Ruyi is all Liang Qu's made-up one-sided story. The Dragon People tribe knows nothing about this. Hearing suddenly that Long Long Eying is going to break through to Jiang Zongshi, Long Long Zong Yin only feels puzzled, and moreover...

He can feel Liang Qu's inexplicable excitement today, sitting in front of him like a wild monkey that could jump off the chair at any time.

What happy event is there?

"Third Elder, rest assured, Long Breath is already here."

Liang Qu looks at Long Long Eying, and Long Long Eying stretches out her hand, revealing the spirit fish in her palm.

Silver light is brilliant, circling and swimming.

At a glance, one feels peace and harmony, as if sitting in the wilderness, clouds breaking and moon coming out, the sky full of clear light, quietly listening to the faint sound of the wind sweeping across the grass tips.

"This..."

Coming back to his senses from the illusion, Long Long Zong Yin's pupils expand.

Is there really Long Breath?

And such a feeling, it's truly extraordinary!

"Master Liang, this thing is brilliant with silver light; I wonder what kind of Long Breath it is?"

"Taiyin."

"Taiyin?"

Long Long Zong Yin has never heard of it. Just at this time, figures move outside the door. Liang Qu looks up and greets enthusiastically.

"Great Elder, Second Elder!"

"Master Liang!"

"I've been waiting for you two! Come! Come quickly!"

Long Long Zong Yin waves his hand to urge, pulling the Great and Second Elders to observe the 【Taiyin】 spirit fish together.

The three elders gather, and the Great and Second Elders look at the spirit fish in Long Eying's hand, experiencing it carefully, all having strange colors.

How extraordinary!

When the Dragon Lord was alive, the number of Grandmasters was more than two hands.

Heaven and Earth Long Breaths each have their own merits; the elders have definitely seen, eaten, and even used them.

But the silver-shining Long Breath in front of them, although not as fierce and overbearing as fire and thunder attributes, or as gentle and nourishing as water and wood attributes, or as sharp as metal attributes, wins in being pure and clear, like the light of stars and moon. This characteristic is truly the first time they have seen it.

"Yin and Yang..."

The Great Elder's eyes flicker.

He knows his granddaughter's temperament; it is indeed suitable.

Taking advantage of everyone being gathered.

Liang Qu briefly talks about the auction.

No one thinks there is anything inappropriate about using the Dragon People as a shield.

The monarch is not yet strong, so it should be like this.

"The Dragon People can declare it to the outside, but there is no need to say what kind of Long Breath was eaten. Just say that she has achieved Jiang Zongshi, so that there will be room for maneuver in the future."

"Such a great gift, why doesn't Master Liang keep it for yourself? If you are worried that it is not appropriate to put it at home, then put it in the tribe." The Second Elder advises righteously. "You are already Hunting Tiger, your talent is overflowing, the day of Perfected Form is not far away. A good Long Breath is hard to find; how many people are stuck here."

"I have more." Liang Qu interrupts. "Perhaps in another year, Long Binglin can also enter Jiang Zongshi."

Taiyin is Taiyang; one breath, two natures. If you don't take it out to sell, keeping it in your hand is just a consumable.

"..."

Liang Qu's sentence made the Second Elder swallow the words she was about to say halfway.

She is secretly puzzled.

Are there so many Heaven and Earth Long Breaths near Huaihe?

In her impression, in the southwest water area of the entire Huaihe Great Marsh, except for the Heavenly Water Morning Dew, it belongs to fifteen years ago, when a streak of Green Wave Long Breath appeared in the west water area, which the old turtle obtained and exchanged for the imperial court, exchanging it for a few treasures. Counting further back, one has to trace it back to more than thirty years...

Perhaps infected by Liang Qu, the usually steady Long Long Zong Yin follows suit and becomes excited.

Good, good!

It's too rare.

Decades ago, the Dragon Lord disappeared for too long, the East Snake's ambition was rampant, and they joined forces with the Northern Fish to snatch the Long Gong. After a great battle and several counterattacks, countless Perfected Form experts died, and not many complete corpses were snatched back; most were swallowed by demon beasts. Since then, the number of Dragon People Grandmasters has decreased rather than increased.

Now there is actually a feeling of reappearing brilliance!

Lest there be long nights and many dreams.

The matter of breaking through should be early rather than late; the earlier it is used, the earlier it will be safe.

"Master Liang, Long Eying, wait a moment, I will go arrange it!"

"Since Master Liang came today, most of the August lotus seeds have been harvested. I will save myself from sending someone again, and take your share first." The Second Elder suggests.

"Good!" Liang Qu is spirited, following the Second Elder closely, stepping out of the room.

The room is gradually empty.

Long Long Eying looks at the Great Elder: "Grandfather, how much silver is left at home?"

The Great Elder's thoughts shift: "Is Master Liang short of money?"

"Hmm."

The Great Elder counts on his fingers: "There is not much use for silver in the Demon Court, only going out and not coming in. Most of the tribe's savings are left in the Long Gong. There is probably about 110,000 to 120,000 in cash at home..."

Long Long Eying stretches out her fair hand.

"Is 70,000 or 80,000 enough? Jiangchuan County was just established, and the tribe now has dealings with the imperial court. I will keep some on hand to add some things." The Great Elder explains halfway, finding that Long Long Eying has no reaction, and pauses. "100,000?"

"Grandfather is of such an old age, and his cultivation has reached the Heaven-Person Jiang Zongshi realm, blocked by bloodline shackles and unable to advance. What is the use of saving money? Could it be to take a second wife?"

"..."

Under the King Lotus, the fat catfish eats heartily, rolling over and patting its belly, burping from being choked.

Liang Qu weighs the bamboo basket in his hand, a full basket of green lotus seeds with shells, full of vitality rushing toward his face.

Through the nourishment and catalysis of "Cannot Move" using the Green Wood Great Array, the size of the August lotus seeds is obviously larger than those in July. Eating a few, the water essence seems to have increased a little.

"1,500 seeds... Long Eying gave 300."

Just thinking.

A bunch of keys falls in front of him, clinking and clanking.

Liang Qu takes the key ring: "This is..."

"Silver, box keys. I had someone move them to the Elder's house, 123,600 taels, cash, no silver banknotes." Long Long Eying blinks.

"How did you know..."

"I just knew."

Liang Qu is immediately moved, a unique and satisfying feeling of support surging in his heart. He was just worried about having no money, even the Time Insect's jar was almost unaffordable.

It's not that he is embarrassed, it's just why is this money so odd?

Before he could investigate further.

"Elder."

"Hmm?"

"Going to retreat."

Liang Qu feels reluctant.

Just lying down for a while and having to separate.

But the one who breaks through to Jiang Zongshi will have more sense of security when held.

"Good!"

The two separate.

Outside the half-acre field.

Bubbles float up faintly.

The Third Elder bumps the Great Elder's shoulder.

Long Long Zong Yin is clearly an old man of over a hundred years, but at this moment, he seems to have a bit of youthful spirit.

The Great Elder is stunned, his expression gradually becoming complicated.

All his attention was on the Long Breath in the room earlier, but now that the Long Breath matter is settled, he has a realization.

With his hundreds of years of experience, he naturally knows that the two have some signs.

Liang Qu is naturally extraordinary, joy upon joy, it is clearly a great happy event.

But when that day really comes, why is there some anxiety and fear?
