#360 - Beihai Longdu

Above the North Sea Dragon Palace.

The envoy delegation from the Wu Kingdom had arrived.

For the envoy delegation of the Wu Kingdom, most of them were seeing the sea for the first time.

Seeing such a vast and boundless sea and the islands situated on it, everyone felt how small they were.

Xu Ming sighed softly, looking at the calm sea.

For most of the delegation members, although they were here on a mission, in reality, it was more of a tour.

Not only could they witness the elegance of the North Sea Dragon Queen, but they could also see the magnificent underwater world, and after returning, they would have something to brag about to their friends.

But for Xu Ming, it was different.

Xu Ming knew very well that the North Sea Dragon Queen's target was himself.

The reason why the Wu Kingdom was invited by the North Sea Dragon Queen this time was also because of him.

However, he had no idea what the Dragon Queen's purpose was.

Just as everyone was wondering how they could enter the North Sea Dragon Palace, Xu Ming walked to the bow of the boat and bowed to the vast ocean: "The Wu Kingdom envoy delegation has come to visit!"

As soon as Xu Ming finished speaking, the calm sea began to surge with waves, the waves growing bigger and bigger, and schools of flying fish leaped out of the sea and fell back down.

The vast ocean gradually collapsed, forming a vortex inward.

Splash!

The vortex suddenly flew upward, directly into the clouds above.

Waterspouts pierced into the clouds, like pillars, connecting the water surface to the sky, and the white clouds in the sky were shattered by these waterspouts.

Another waterspout shot out from the sea, seemingly about to shatter the flying boat into pieces.

However, just as the seawater was about to touch the flying boat, it suddenly dispersed.

The seawater floated around the flying boat, and then more and more seawater kept condensing.

Finally, the turquoise seawater enveloped the flying boat like a bubble.

Immediately afterward, under the traction of the seawater, the flying boat was pulled into the sea bit by bit.

The flying boat submerged into the sea, entering the ocean.

The flying boat gradually descended towards the seabed.

Schools of colorful fish swam around the flying boat, like ribbons of color.

A huge whale swam towards Xu Ming's flying boat, opening its mouth wide at the flying boat. Everyone broke out in a cold sweat, thinking that the whale would swallow the flying boat, but the whale turned its head and left, without the slightest hesitation.

The further down they went, the more giant creatures there were in the seabed, and Xu Ming and the others even saw many dragons.

Before long, Xu Ming and the others saw a huge city.

This was the North Sea Dragon Capital.

The area of this city was equivalent to the area of a state in the Wu Kingdom.

And in the center of the Dragon Capital, there was a vast palace.

The North Sea Dragon Palace, the bedroom of the legendary Dragon Queen.

The palace was magnificent, and the area of the entire palace was like a small town. Turtles swam around above the palace.

You could see the facilities inside the palace, but you couldn't see the people inside.

Xu Ming guessed that it should be the influence of the magic array.

This magic array concealed the palace.

However, the magic array surrounding the Dragon Palace was definitely not just this one layer.

Even if you were outside the palace, you could feel the huge magic array surrounding the palace.

Before long, the Wu Kingdom's flying boat stopped outside the palace.

The water bubble surrounding the Wu Kingdom's flying boat dispersed, and blue water droplets entered the heads of these envoys one after another.

Everyone discovered that they could actually breathe underwater.

"Welcome everyone from the Wu Kingdom. Please forgive us for not greeting you from afar."

An old man with a tortoise shell on his back led hundreds of maids out to greet them.

Xu Ming jumped off the flying boat, walked to the old turtle's side, and bowed: "I am Xu Ming, the chief envoy of the mission to the Dragon Palace this time. Greetings, sir."

"You are too polite, Lord Xu." The old turtle smiled, and then looked at Xu Ming a few more times, as if he was sizing up Xu Ming, "I am the Minister of Rites of the North Sea Dragon Palace. Lord Xu can just call me Old Turtle."

"How dare I." Xu Ming quickly said, showing great respect.

Just kidding, someone tells you to call him Old Turtle, and you actually call him Old Turtle?

Why don't you call him Turtle Grandson?

"Lord Xu really doesn't need to be so polite. We have already prepared some dishes to welcome you all. I hope you won't dislike them," the old turtle said with a smile.

"Then we will trouble you," Xu Ming nodded.

"Lord Xu, please."

"Lord Turtle, please."

Minister Turtle and Xu Ming walked into the Dragon Capital together. Behind Xu Ming, three thousand Blood Float Troupes and hundreds of officials followed with gifts.

Passing through the magic array, they soon arrived before the Dragon Palace. After entering the palace, the Blood Float Troupes all needed to remove their armor.

However, this was understandable.

Although three thousand Blood Float Troupes couldn't cause any trouble in the North Sea Dragon Palace, the Dragon Queen could kill everyone with a single slap.

But no matter what, this was the core of the North Sea. You can't just let an armed force of three thousand people come in like this. What about the Dragon Palace's reputation?

As for removing their armor, all the Blood Float Troupes were mentally prepared and very cooperative.

The Blood Float Troupes changed into the clothes prepared by the Dragon Palace.

Xu Ming and the others were first taken to take a bath, and Xu Ming, as the chief envoy, received even higher-level treatment for his bath.

Xu Ming had a separate bath, and there were also clam girls to serve Xu Ming and wipe him down.

Xu Ming originally refused, but when Xu Ming refused, these clam girls immediately knelt in front of Xu Ming and asked Xu Ming, "Sir, is there anything we are not doing well? We will change it immediately."

Only then did Xu Ming understand that if these clam girls did not serve him well, they would be punished, let alone being asked to leave. No matter what the reason, they would be considered to have not served the guest well.

So Xu Ming could only let them stay and serve him while he bathed.

After bathing, Xu Ming changed into a new set of clothes and was taken by a maid to dine.

The dishes prepared by the Dragon Palace were very rich, all seafood.

Xu Ming just felt that eating seafood in the Dragon Palace seemed a little strange.

But Xu Ming felt that he was overthinking it.

On the ground, there are demons, aren't there demons in the sea?

Only after a demon develops intelligence will it be regarded as one of its own kind.

Otherwise, those seafood that have not developed intelligence are basically regarded as aliens.

After eating, Xu Ming thought he could go to see the Dragon Queen.

But in reality, he didn't.

Even for three consecutive days, Xu Ming did not see the Dragon Queen.
