“Destroy Yunmeng Village, flood the Dragon Sovereign Temple,” the ten words came out, Yu Changliu’s eyes instantly became incredibly red, and scales started to appear on his aged face.

“That damned loach dares to do this?”

If it were not for the fact that Yu Changliu was seriously injured and unable to fight Fubo Dragon Monarch, he would have rushed to fight to the death.

It was not surprising that Yu Changliu was so angry. Yunmeng Dragon Monarch held an extraordinary significance for the Yu Family.

1 he historical memoirs passed down from generation to generation of temple priests recorded the contribution the Dragon Monarch made to the whole of the Yunmeng waters.

Killing cultivators who fell into the demon path, monster tribes, and protecting the lives in the water area for hundreds of years during the Spirit Energy depletion era.

Io a large extent, without the Yunmeng Dragon Monarch there would be no thriving Dongting aquatic field today.

However, Fubo Dragon Monarch wants to destroy Yunmeng Village, which has hundreds of households because of his personal interests, and flood the Dragon Sovereign Temple that has been preserved for 6,ooo years.

Yunmeng Dragon Monarch was the God of all waters in the Great Marsh area, if Fubo Dragon Monarch really succeeds in flooding the Dragon Sovereign Temple, the name of Yunmeng Dragon Monarch would become a joke among the Aquatic Tribe.

The last remnant dream left by the Dragon Sovereign has already dissipated. This Dragon Sovereign Temple and the pangolin can be said to be the only proofs left in the world by Yunmeng Dragon Monarch. As a temple priest of the Dragon Sovereign Temple, Yu Changliu would never allow anyone to destroy the Dragon Sovereign Temple.

Whether it’s for the hundreds of villagers in Yunmeng Village or for the protection of the Dragon Sovereign Temple, Yu Changliu must stand up and resist Fubo to the end.

Compared to Yu Changliu’s agitation, Shen Yuan appeared much calmer.

It is clear to him that with Fubo Dragon Monarch’s Qi training stage, if he rushed up now, he could completely kill Yu Changliu and seize the Dragon Sovereign Temple.

However, Fubo Dragon Monarch did not take this action, obviously he was afraid of the residual dream of the Dragon Monarch that had taken action before, thinking that there was some kind of trump card hidden in the Dragon Sovereign Temple.

In order to be safe, Fubo Dragon Monarch decided to use the opportunity of the water domain overflowing to directly destroy the entire Yunmeng Village, thereby killing the temple priest, Yu Changliu.

This plot is indeed vicious, but at the same time it exposes another issue. Fubo Dragon Monarch is not confident in his strength, or he is plotting something else and is too busy to take care of this.

Just as Shen Yuan was contemplating, Yu Changliu brought the fish tank to Shen Yuan with both hands.

“Sir, I still need to deal with that old loach’s affairs, and please take care of the Dragon Monarch’s offspring for now.”

Yu Changliu’s eyes were uneasy, fearing that Shen Yuan would refuse.

Shen Yuan didn’t take the fish tank but asked Yu Changliu:

“What will you do?”

“I want to arrange for the villagers of Yunmeng Village to evacuate to a safe place to avoid the flooding of the water domain first, then report this matter to the Great Xia’s Imperial Court.

The Imperial Astronomical Bureau of the Great Xia’s Imperial Court oversees the disturbances caused by monsters and cultivators all over the land. The old loach’s attempt to flood Yunmeng Village has gone beyond the Imperial Court’s tolerance.

I will use Yu Family’s connections to expedite the reporting process and try to get the county administrator of Chunyang County to mobilize the army as soon as possible.

As long as the Great Xia’s Imperial Court takes action, everything will be fine, even a big demon at the Qi training stage could not oppose the modern army of the Great Xia’s Imperial Court.”

Yu Changliu was full of confidence in his speech.

Having been the village chief of Yunmeng Village for so many years, Yu Changliu is naturally not careless and will not choose to fight the Fubo Dragon Monarch head-on with his weak cultivation level.

Yu Changliu understood clearly, his greatest advantage at the moment was understanding Fubo Dragon Monarch’s plot ahead of time, giving him the opportunity to notify the Great Xia’s Imperial Court.

The dominating clan on this land after all is the Human Clan. If Fubo Dragon Monarch were to cause a flood that drowns Yunmeng Village, it would disturb the order that the Great Xia’s Imperial Court wants to maintain.

If they don’t deal with it in time, it will inevitably cause other monster tribes to follow suit.

Once the matter is exposed, Fubo Dragon Monarch will face a thunderous strike from the Great Xia’s Imperial Court.

The only worry is, Yunmeng Village is situated in a remote location, information might not reach the Imperial Court in time when passed up the ranks.

But the Yu Family has a long history, the Chunyang County to which Yunmeng Village belongs has considerable connections – the deputy county administrator of Chunyang County was an old acquaintance of Yu Changliu. If the matter is reported to the deputy county administrator of Chunyang County, the army will certainly mobilize to suppress the Fubo Dragon Monarch immediately.

Yu Changliu was exceptionally confident, but Shen Yuan did not share his optimism.

Fubo Dragon Monarch is not exactly a member of the monster tribe deeply rooted in the ancient forests and mountains. The fact that he thought to use human merchants to scheme against the Dragon Sovereign Temple months in advance clearly indicates that he has already established relationships with the human clan nobles.”

Furthermore, the guests invited to the Dragon Sovereign Feast hosted by Fubo Dragon Monarch included human cultivators, illustrating that Fubo Dragon Monarch is fully aware of the structure of Great Xia’s Imperial Court and the human cultivators.”

“There is no way someone with his perspective would allow others to find a weakness.”

With this in mind, Shen Yuan turned to the Finch Monster lying on the ground and said:

“Surely, what Fubo Dragon Monarch wants to do extends beyond simply flooding Yunmeng Village.”

Shen Yuan’s indifferent gaze caused the Finch Monster’s spirit to tremble, and it quickly revealed all the secrets it had been trying to keep.

“I’m not exactly privy to the specifics. I only heard that, apart from Fubo Dragon Monarch, several other Water Gods from the Dongting waters are also involved in this incident.

A few days ago, a human named Liu Yao visited Fubo Dragon Monarch. I heard he belongs to a prominent human clan.

I believe this information should be related to what Fubo Dragon Monarch has done.”

The mention of the Liu Family instantly caused Yu Changliu’s face to change once again.

“Are you saying the Liu Family?”

‘ 1 he King Liu Family of Qing Province?”

Yu Changliu interrogated the Finch Monster, which couldn’t muster a response under Yu Changliu’s pressure and could only tremble on the ground.

“Calm down!”

Shen Yuan reprimanded softly, his Primordial Spirit’s Divine Sense forcefully calming Yu Changliu’s agitated emotions. His brows slightly furrowed.

Yu Changliu’s eyes lost their redness significantly. He quickly subdued his momentum and respectfully said to Shen Yuan:

I apologize for my momentary loss of composure and causing trouble.”

Ignoring Yu Changliu’s apology, Shen Yuan asked:

“What do you mean by the King Liu Family of Qing Province?”

Yu Changliu’s face, devoid of the confidence it once held, revealed a bitter smile as he explained:

“The so-called King of Qing Province is just an exaggerated moniker, since there is no royal title established in Qing Province by Great Xia.

However, the Liu Family of Qing Province has a history of over five thousand years, with its disciples, old officials, and collateral families spread throughout Qing Province. At its peak, eight out of thirteen counties in Qing Province were governed by those surnamed Liu.

Even the appointments of provincial governor and inspector had to seek the Liu Family’s opinion, hence the public nickname ‘King of Qing Province.’ “If the Liu Family really is involved in Fubo Dragon Monarch’s affairs, then seeking help would likely prove futile.”

“But would the Liu Family really dare to risk angering the Great Xia Imperial Court to cover up the truth for Fubo Dragon Monarch?”

Yu Changliu was lost.

The disappearance of the Dragon Sovereign’s remnant dream had left Yunmeng Village without its greatest support. Now, the flooding of Dragon Sovereign Temple by Fubo Dragon Monarch is adding insult to injury.

Even the Dragon Sovereign’s son, who hasn’t yet managed to transform into a dragon and is currently just a pangolin, needs a long time to grow. In this situation, Yu Changliu is unsure where to turn.

Just then, Shen Yuan spoke.

“Go plan the evacuation of Yunmeng Village.”

Yu Changliu was stunned: “But without the imperial army to keep the peace, what about the old loaches…”

Shen Yuan leisurely walked towards the outside of Dragon Sovereign Temple, with the Maine Coon cat following closely at his side.

Dressed in a subtly elegant, white long gown with a historic looking Bronze Ancient Sword hanging from his waist, he looked like a scholar who had walked straight out of an ancient painting.

“Leave the matter of Fubo Dragon Monarch to me.”

“After all, I also have some interest in the Natural Spirit Pool in Fubo Pond..”
