C465 On the West Sea Lake
When Shangguan Hui heard that Qin Yun was going to his own house, he was ecstatic. He said to Shangguan Nan, "What are you blanking out for? Go back and prepare quickly. Treat him well."
"Alright." When Shangguan Nan heard he could leave, he quickly went back to prepare.
Following that, Qin Yun and Murong Ming, father and daughter, were led by Shangguan Hui to the Shangguan family.
The Shangguan family was indeed a real estate tycoon. The villa's architecture was elegant with extravagance and its lights were brilliant. However, Qin Yun did not have the mood to appreciate any of this.
Qin Yun had just exchanged a few pleasantries with Shangguan Hui when a beauty around the age of twenty-three or twenty-four, wearing a sexy qipao, walked in carrying a box.
As soon as the qipao beauty appeared, Qin Yun's gaze landed on her. However, his gaze was fixated on the box.
Seeing this, Shangguan Hui was secretly delighted. He smiled at Qin Yun and said, "Patriarch Qin, this is my daughter, Shangguan Jiao."
Seated beside Qin Yun, Murong Ke'er muttered to herself, "She's obviously here to promote her daughter."
Shangguan Jiao, who was dressed in a qipao, walked to Qin Yun's side and said with a tender voice, "Patriarch Qin, this is the blueprint that you wanted."
"Alright, just give it to me." Qin Yun could not wait to take the box. He hurriedly rummaged through the box, causing Shangguan Jiao to feel embarrassed.
After searching for a while, Qin Yun realized that the location of the underground palace matched the direction he had sensed the mysterious aura from.
Moreover, on these blueprints, only the oldest blueprint had the location of the underground palace, but nothing else. It seemed that after the underground palace was completed, no one needed to repair it anymore.
"Chief Shangguan, do you have any blueprints of the inner parts of the underground palace?" Qin Yun asked with a frown.
Shangguan Hui shook his head and said, "All the blueprints pertaining to the Mirage Sea Sect are here. They should have been lost or not there at all."
"Shangguan Family Head, I hope this matter does not spread to the public!" Qin Yun said solemnly to Shangguan Hui.
When Shangguan Hui heard Qin Yun's words, his expression changed. Just as he was about to say something, Qin Yun continued.
"Shangguan Family Head, don't misunderstand, I'm not trying to threaten you. I'm just reminding you to be careful when dealing with the Illusory Sea Sect in the future, so as to avoid unnecessary trouble." Qin Yun explained.
Although Shangguan Hui did not know what Qin Yun was referring to, he was still a smart person and would never ask what he should not have asked.
The less you know about some things, the safer it is for you.
"Thank you for your reminder, Patriarch Qin. I will definitely pay attention to this matter from now on." Shangguan Hui said.
"I won't disturb you if you're late." After saying that, Qin Yun left the Shangguan household.
After Shangguan Hui sent off Qin Yun, he returned to his room and carefully examined the blueprints. When he thought of the Illusory Sea Sect's mysterious underground palace, he felt a lingering fear.
Fortunately, only a few people in the Shangguan Family knew about it. They then burned the blueprints that showed the exact location of the underground palace to nothing.
Qin Yun sat in Murong Ming's car as he looked out the window. He thought about the Illusory Sea Sect and the mysterious cloud algae in the lake. He felt that there was something amiss.
It was impossible for something from the prehistoric realm to appear in the Western Sea Lake for no reason.
Moreover, Di Hai's explanation was too far-fetched. The Demonic Beast could bring the Demonic Cloud Grass seeds to the West Sea Lake, and the explanation of the Demonic Beast's whereabouts was also ambiguous.
The most important thing was that Di Hai told him not to tell anyone about the cloud algae, as he was afraid of causing panic. It seemed like there was something fishy hidden inside.
"Turn around! I'm going to the West Sea Lake!" Qin Yun said to Murong Ming, who was driving.
"Dragon Lord, it's so late. Why are you going to the West Sea Lake?" Murong Ming asked Qin Yun.
"Of course it's to look at that cloud algae." A glimmer flashed in Qin Yun's eyes as he said to Murong Ke'er and Murong Ming, "Go back and announce that I'm staying in the Mu Rong family."
"Yes." Mu Rong Ming replied in a low voice.
When they reached the shore of West Sea Lake, just as Qin Yun was about to get out of the car, Murong Ke said to Qin Yun with concern, "Then, you have to be careful and come back early."
"Don't worry, once that cloud algae sees me, it won't be in time to dodge." Qin Yun gently pinched Murong Ke'er's nose before opening the car door and stepping out.
After that, Murong Ming drove off with Murong Ke in his car.
Qin Yun stood by the lakeside and looked at the calm lake that stretched as far as the eye could see.
It was now night, and the sky was filled with stars that reflected off the surface of West Sea Lake. The surface of West Sea Lake was frighteningly frightening, even a little strange.
Qin Yun leaped in the direction of the cloud algae. When he reached the lake's location, with a plop, he dove into the western lake.
After entering the lake, Qin Yun finally understood what the golden dragon meant by the invulnerable chilliness of water and fire.
Ever since the Fire Pearl recognized Qin Yun as its master, he no longer feared fire. That was because those flames were nothing in front of the South Spirit Fire. Furthermore, with the Cold Water Bead, Qin Yun could move freely underwater and merge with the entire lake.
Although he was still unable to breathe underwater, he could move a lot faster.
Soon, Qin Yun dove into the depths of the lake. This time, Qin Yun did not conceal his Spiritual Energy. Instead, he released his Spiritual Energy to attract the demonic cloud algae.
After all, the bottom of the West Sea was so big, it would not be easy to find the location of the Demonic Clouds Algae-like thing.
A few minutes later, countless gigantic algae were flying in Qin Yun's direction.
Qin Yun looked in the direction the cloud algae came from as a smile suffused across his lips.
With a "shua" sound, a golden light flashed on the Golden Dragon Ruyi Bracelet as the blue Frosty Water Pearl appeared in Qin Yun's hand.
The moment the Cold Water Bead appeared in his hand, the surrounding water temperature instantly dropped. The Demonic Cloud algae that were reaching over all retreated as if they had seen a ghost.
As for Qin Yun, he followed the direction in which the cloud algae had retreated and chased after it.
The length of the cloud algae was far beyond Qin Yun's imagination. It was nearly a hundred meters in length. If he allowed it to grow any longer, it was likely that it would threaten the surface of the water.
Qin Yun traced the vines and quickly found the root.
Its rhizome was like a towering tree, rooted in the deepest part of the vast Western Sea Lake. It was a spectacular sight to behold.
When he looked at the bottom of the cloud algae, he couldn't help but shiver. This white bone root was like a burial ground for martyrs. His previous evaluation of the cloud algae's splendor had disappeared without a trace.
Furthermore, there was a gigantic corpse at its roots. It was the dragon that Qin Yun had killed that day.
There was a huge boulder beside the roots of the cloud algae. The boulder was also filled with bones. Qin Yun accelerated and charged over to check the situation.
"There's a hole?" Qin Yun came to the bottom of the boulder and discovered a deep hole.
