Chapter 448
Chapter 448 Brother-in-law, Brother-in-law
At this moment, in the Imperial Palace of the Divine Court.
Xiao Qing'er, the Green Scaled Holy Dragon, who was originally lying in the Qinglong Pond to practice, suddenly opened his eyes after sensing Xiao Jian's breath.
Then, he rushed straight to the sky.
He quickly used his spiritual sense to locate Xiao Jian's location and rushed over.
Beside Xiao Jian, Xiao Qing'er did not feel the breath of Chen Mu and Ye Qingcheng.
She was worried that Xiao Jian's previous obedience was all fake. In fact, he wanted to attack the Divine Court and the Queen Qin Xuanji.
Xiao Qing'er would not allow such a thing to happen, whether as a holy dragon or a holy beast of the Divine Court.
If Xiao Jian was stubborn and insisted on provoking disputes between the two races, Xiao Qing'er would not mind killing her own relatives for the sake of justice!
Sacrificing Xiao Jian to maintain peace between the dragon race and the human race and reduce casualties was a good deal in her opinion.
Although Xiao Jian was hatched from the same dragon nest as her, Xiao Qing'er still chose justice without hesitation.
"Qing'er, what happened? Why are you so anxious? Did someone bully you? Tell me, I'll help you kill her!"
Lu Changqing, who was originally in seclusion, followed Xiao Qing'er out of the dragon pool after noticing that Xiao Qing'er had left.
As usual, he stuck to Xiao Qing'er.
"Xiao Jian left His Highness and the Crown Princess and was heading to the Imperial Palace alone. I'm worried that he wants to attack His Majesty and take the opportunity to provoke a war between the two clans." Xiao Qing'er was in no mood to mess around with Lu Changqing, and explained the whole story in a few words.
"What! There is such a thing! Let's go quickly." As a retainer, Lu Changqing could tell the difference between right and wrong on such a big issue.
Putting away his cynical temperament, he and Xiao Qing'er quickly rushed towards Xiao Jian.
There was only one thing in mind at the moment, to stop Xiao Jian from messing around!
"A-choo!"
Xiao Jian was walking on the way to the imperial study, and for some reason, he always felt a chill on his back.
It was a good day with no wind and bright sunshine.
"Xiao Jian!"
"Sister..."
Before he uttered the word "sister", he turned around and saw Lu Changqing with sharp eyes, holding a machete several dozen meters long, approaching his neck.
Xiao Qing'er also turned into a human form, dressed in green, with a burst of spiritual energy all over her body, as if she was ready for a big fight.
"Sister, brother-in-law, you, what do you mean?" Xiao Jian's body was stiff, and he dared not move.
Now is different from the past, everyone is working for the same master, so he naturally can't tear his face with Xiao Qing'er again.
When he came, he had already thought of countless ways to approach Xiao Qing'er and repair the brother-sister relationship with her.
However, this dragon and this man didn't intend to give him the opportunity to finish his words.
"Why don't you stay in the Holy Dragon Ancestor Land and come to the Imperial Palace!" Xiao Qing'er asked with cold eyes.
"I came to see the empress and have something important to tell you." Xiao Jian said truthfully.
"You want to see the emperor? Important? What's the important thing?" Xiao Qing'er did not dispel and lowered her suspicion.
She and Lu Changqing always had a strong vigilance on their faces.
"Ahem!" Xiao Jian clenched his fist lightly in front of his lips, cleared his throat, straightened his back, and said very formally: "I came to the Divine Court this time, under the order of the Lord of Ten Thousand Dragons, as a representative of the Holy Dragon, to express my submission to the empress Qin Xuanji!"
I thought I was here on behalf of the Holy Dragon clan and Chen Mu, and I couldn't embarrass them.
"Representing the Holy Dragon, to express my submission to the Divine Court?"
Xiao Jian was about to agree, but he saw the dragon energy on Xiao Qing'er burst out, which was even more shocking, "Do you think I'm an idiot, will I believe such stupid words?"
"Besides, I have been in the ancestral land for so long, how come I have never heard of the Lord of Ten Thousand Dragons?"
Xiao Qing'er ruthlessly exposed Xiao Jian's lies, and determined that he was not trustworthy, and not a word of his could be believed!
"The Lord of Ten Thousand Dragons was just elected. It's normal that you haven't heard of him." Xiao Jian responded.
"Well, then, tell me, who in the ancestral land is qualified to take on this important task?" Xiao Qing'er refused to believe in evil, and she had already associated a lot of words to retort Xiao Jian in her mind.
"The person who can take on this important task is naturally the Immortal Venerable and the current crown prince."
"..."
Xiao Jian's words made Xiao Qing'er swallow the words that were on the tip of her tongue and dissipate.
"Your Highness? The Lord of Ten Thousand Dragons?" Xiao Qing'er frowned slightly, still finding it hard to believe what Xiao Jian said.
She didn't doubt whether Chen Mu had this ability, she simply felt that Xiao Jian's words were extremely unreliable.
There must be something wrong when things are abnormal!
"Yes, not long ago, the Immortal Venerable came in person, conquered the ancestral land of the Holy Dragon, signed a blood contract with the Ten Thousand Dragons, and became the real Lord of Ten Thousand Dragons!" Xiao Jian puffed out his chest with great pride.
Those who knew him would think he was talking about Chen Mu, while those who didn't would probably think he was introducing himself.
"What! Your Highness came in person and conquered the Holy Dragon's ancestral land? Are you kidding me?" Xiao Qing'er asked again and again to confirm.
"Of course I'm not kidding. How dare I joke about such a thing? Don't forget that the Immortal Venerable and I are the first Holy Dragons to sign a blood contract." Xiao Jian became more and more proud.
He couldn't be the first in strength, but this kind of first was not bad for him.
"In addition, Xiao Jue was released, which almost led to the extinction of the Holy Dragon Clan. Thanks to the Immortal Venerable's timely action, his conspiracy was shattered and everything returned to peace." Xiao Jue introduced Chen Mu's glorious deeds.
"Xiao Jue? He's out! Where is he now?" In Xiao Qing'er's eyes, there was no doubt that Xiao Jue was a very dangerous evil dragon.
"He's dead." Xiao Jian said calmly.
"Dead?!"
Xiao Qing'er's eyes widened. She had never thought that she would be separated from the Dragon Clan's first pride after hearing about it.
"Just pretend I didn't say anything." After thinking about it for a while, this matter was not too simple for Chen Mu. It was a matter of course. There was no need to ask questions and confirm repeatedly.
Yes, Xiao Qing'er admitted that as a holy dragon, Xiao Jue was indeed extremely talented and rare in ten thousand years.
But, compared with Chen Mu, this pearl, Xiao Jue's talent was really not worth mentioning.
Xiao Qing'er had never thought of comparing the two together.
Doing so was undoubtedly a degradation of Chen Mu's status.
"So, can I go see Her Majesty the Empress now? This is the order given to me by the Dragon Lord himself!" Xiao Jian's attitude and tone were a little tougher.
Worried that if he dragged on these trivial matters, it would affect his capable image in Chen Mu's mind.
"We'll go with you." Xiao Qing'er was still worried.
"Whatever." Xiao Jian said indifferently.
After seeing the situation stabilize, Lu Changqing raised the knife in his hand and carried it on his shoulder.
Just because of the word "brother-in-law", his favorability towards Xiao Jian, the elder brother-in-law, soared.
It's really a bit... I can't bear to cut him.
I wanted to continue to build a relationship.
"By the way!"
At this time, Xiao Qing'er suddenly stopped, with a very serious expression, and corrected: "There is nothing between him and me, and he is not your brother-in-law, don't call him that!"
