Primordial Era: This Heavenly Emperor is Too Powerful

Chapter 44 Fellow Daoist Kunpeng, your style remains as impressive as ever!

The wildly popular online novel, "The Primordial Era: This Heavenly Emperor is Too Powerful," is a heartfelt work by author Yu Wanshui, available exclusively on Kele Novels.

After a moment of silence, the Dragon Kings of the Four Seas waited expectantly.

Zhulong finally spoke.

"I already know about this."

However, the Heavenly Emperor has now gone into seclusion.

Some of the things we offer as tribute are not easy to pass on.

For now, we can only wait.

Once the Heavenly Emperor emerges from seclusion, he will present tribute from the Dragon Clan.

After all, the purpose of our tribute of clam maidens was to allow the Heavenly Emperor to enjoy some singing and dancing and have a way to relax.

But what others think is another matter.

As Zhulong finished speaking, a hint of embarrassment flashed across the faces of the Four Seas Dragon Kings.

Enjoying "singing and dancing"?

That's just an excuse.

If this were made public, the Dragon Clan would be considered utterly treacherous.

Who's the kind person who sends beautiful women to people for no reason?

And each gift costs several hundred yuan.

Moreover, tribute will be paid once every ten thousand years.

This is practically the standard equipment for a treacherous minister.

After a moment of silence, Ao Qin couldn't help but sigh, "Alas!"

What a mess!

I can't even give away my gifts!

What do we do now?

If we don't take any action, the Heavenly Emperor will emerge from seclusion.

They'll probably have to go after our dragon race directly.

After hearing this, Zhulong pondered for a moment and then said, "I see!"

After you return, Ao Guang will immediately contact Qiuniu.

Let him serve in the Heavenly Court, since we've brought 800,000 aquatic creatures with us.

Then we have to treat this as a serious matter.

Otherwise, I would be alone in the Heavenly Court, and the Dragon Clan would not have an easy time either.

Also, have Qiuniu bring Taotie along.

That guy has been roaming the prehistoric world without any restraint for so long.

It's time to settle down.

Things are different now; the Heavenly Court's power and influence are growing daily.

If we let him run rampant again, I'm afraid he'll be one of the targets to be eliminated next.

In addition, let the Xie Zhi come to the Heavenly Court.

His innate talents and supernatural abilities make him perfectly suited to manage the Heavenly Prison.

From each of the four seas, send forth another fifty thousand aquatic creatures.

Help the Xie Zhi set up the framework of the Heavenly Prison.

Regardless of how much worse it is than Kunpeng, we at least need to show our attitude.

Otherwise, it has no value and no attitude.

"Only our dragon race will suffer."

Upon hearing Zhulong's words, Ao Guang frowned and said, "Ancestor!"

I understand what you're saying.

But..."

Seeing Ao Guang's hesitation, Zhulong asked in a deep voice, "But what is it?"

"Do you perhaps refuse to send out another 50,000 aquatic creatures?"

Upon hearing this, Ao Guang immediately shook his head and said, "I have absolutely no such intention!"

The problem is that the three people you just mentioned all have unusual backgrounds.

Even if I inform them, they might not pay any attention to me.

Especially Taotie, given his temperament.

If he's unhappy, he might even end up in my stomach.

Upon hearing this, Zhulong's expression immediately darkened.

That's really true. Given Taotie's temperament, it's not like he wouldn't do something like that.

Then Zhulong said, "Forget it!"

Go back and prepare for the next batch of aquatic creatures.

"I will personally inform Taotie and the others."

Upon hearing this, the Four Dragon Kings rose and bowed, saying, "Yes!"

We'll take our leave!

After the Four Dragon Kings left, Zhulong continued to sit in his chair, pondering the current situation.

For the dragons, this time it was even more infuriating than when they joined the Heavenly Court last time.

After all, last time, Di Jun and Tai Yi seemed to be very unfriendly to the dragon race.

However, after the dragons announced their allegiance, it did not cause them much actual loss.

But now things are different; Haotian seems to be giving him a lot of credit.

However, how Haotian intends to treat the dragon race remains a mystery.

In addition, Zhulong himself was also trapped in the Heavenly Court.

This puts the dragon race in a very passive position.

On one hand, they had to give an explanation to Haotian, and on the other hand, they had to control the losses of the dragon clan.

Tired of heart!

After pondering for a moment, Zhulong decided to pay a visit to Kunpeng first.

Kunpeng has experience with this.

Let's see if we can get anything useful by trying to probe indirectly.

Moreover, they will be under orders from the Heavenly Court from now on, so it's good to cultivate a good relationship.

To avoid being scammed in the future.

I don't expect Kunpeng to provide any help, I just hope it doesn't cause any trouble.

Especially in the Heavenly Court today, most of the divine positions are held by people from the demon race.

They might not dare to disobey Haotian's orders, but that doesn't mean they can't make things difficult for Zhulong.

I'll think about it.

Zhulong's figure flickered and disappeared from the spot.

In a short while.

Zhulong arrived at the palace where Kunpeng was.

"Fellow Daoist Kunpeng!"

"The Candle Dragon has come to visit!"

Upon hearing Zhulong's voice, Kunpeng suppressed his doubts.

He slowly opened his mouth and said, "Fellow Daoist Zhulong, please come in!"

Upon entering the hall, Zhulong bowed slightly.

"Greetings, Fellow Daoist Kunpeng!"

"It's been years, but you still look as dashing as ever, fellow Daoist!"

Upon hearing Zhulong's words, Kunpeng immediately felt a surge of resentment.

Why the hell do you have to bring up something you don't want to talk about?

I've fallen into such a wretched state, and you think I'm still as dashing as ever?

Is this a mockery of me, implying that I've been caught again?

Thinking of this, Kunpeng immediately replied, "Greetings, Fellow Daoist Zhulong!"

Fellow Daoist, your charm remains undiminished!

Please have a seat!

Kunpeng's words were, in fact, a subtle counterattack.

Weren't you, Zhulong, also captured and brought to the Heavenly Court?

I'm having a tough time, but you, Zhulong, aren't having it any better.

Once Zhulong was seated, Kunpeng waved and served him a cup of tea.

Upon hearing this, Zhulong shook his head and said, "I dare not offer any guidance!"

"Since we will all be serving in the Heavenly Court from now on, I've come to pay a special visit."

Upon hearing this, Kunpeng was also somewhat confused about Zhulong's intentions.

Did he come here specifically to mock himself?

It seems that Zhulong isn't that idle.

Is he here to build a relationship?

This is a good thing!

It's pretty useless!

Everyone's life is in Haotian's hands.

Are they trying to stir up trouble?

I'm afraid he won't survive the night!

Since Zhulong is intentionally showing goodwill, there's no need to rush to refuse.

Ultimately, Zhulong's cultivation level is still a notch above Kunpeng's.

Kunpeng then replied, "I wholeheartedly agree with what you have said, fellow Daoist!"

We will both be working in the Heavenly Court from now on, so let's communicate in advance if anything comes up.

This will also avoid many misunderstandings and allow us to do our best to complete the tasks assigned by His Majesty.

The meaning is clear: Kunpeng has received your good intentions, Zhulong.

Moreover, I am willing to live in peace with you, Zhulong.

The premise is that one cannot go against the will of the Heavenly Emperor.

Upon hearing this answer, Zhulong had a better understanding of the situation.

It seems that Kunpeng is also willing to coexist peacefully.

This reduces the possibility of being taken advantage of when someone is down.

Although they were all under the weight of the Heavenly Emperor, they couldn't really say they would advance or retreat together.

However, this situation is still a pretty good start for the Dragon Clan and Zhulong.

Zhulong then spoke up, "Fellow Daoist Kunpeng is very polite!"

We really can't afford to mess up His Majesty's mission.

However, the Dragon Clan did not contribute much this time, which may displease His Majesty.

"Could you teach me, fellow Daoist?"

Upon hearing Zhulong's words, Kunpeng immediately felt displeased.

Are you, Zhulong, here to express goodwill or to cause trouble?

Why did you bring this up if there was nothing wrong?

Now, who in the entire prehistoric world doesn't know that I, Kunpeng, really tricked the demon race to save my own life?

You said your dragon race didn't contribute much.

Isn't this just saying that I, Kunpeng, am ruthless towards the demon race?

Is this a tactic to target me?

Are you mocking me?

I just thought you, Zhulong, were here to extend goodwill.

In retrospect, it seems that this conclusion was drawn a bit too early.

Let's wait and see.

Let's see what you have to say later.

Kunpeng then replied calmly, "Fellow Daoist Zhulong!"

Even I, a humble Taoist priest, cannot say for sure about this matter!

Furthermore, hasn't Fellow Daoist Zhulong already prepared a grand gift?

Why bother asking this humble Taoist priest again?

When Kunpeng mentioned the generous gift, Zhulong's face showed a hint of embarrassment.

I thought I was being discreet, but it turns out everyone saw right through me.

But why did you bring this up?

Can't we just have a pleasant chat anymore?

I highly recommend "The Primordial Era: This Heavenly Emperor is Too Powerful"! Go straight to the exciting parts.
