Chapter 171 West Sea Dragon Palace

Ding!
A blue fine net flew in from outside the banquet hall and caught the firebird that was flying towards Qin Shaoyang.
The combination of water and fire resulted in the firebird dissipating into nothingness, while the water attribute blue light net also vanished.
"Hahaha, sorry to be late!"
An old man dressed in a green long robe led many people inside from outside. The blue light net thrown just now was casually tossed by him.
Western Sea Dragon Palace!
This time they brought over more than fifty and sixty people, with this elderly-looking person who looks only eighty years old being the Supreme King of Western Sea Dragon Palace, an elder who had been in seclusion for several hundred years and just came out of it recently known as "Old Zeng"!
Standing next to this imposing Old Zeng is a handsome young man dressed elaborately; he is the Young Master of Western Sea Dragon Palace, Zeng Yitao.
"Haha, Old Zeng personally attending Princess Amethyst's birthday banquet is indeed..." Zhao Guang walked over and said some courteous words.
Old Zeng glanced at Zhao Guang with a cold snort and merely nodded. In terms of seniority, Old Zeng ranks one generation higher than Zhao Guang, making the latter unhappy but unable to do much about it.
"Since this is Princess Amethyst's birthday banquet, there’s no need for roughhousing." Old Zeng cast his gaze towards Hao Ren and Qin Shaoyang in the venue and said.
He just intervened to help Qín Shào yáng, and now he is ready to speak up for him.
"It's all minor stuff," Zhao Guang nodded. Then looking at Shào yáng: "Do you still have any doubts about郝仁's realm, Mr. Qin"
Qín Shào yáng kept a cold face and didn't answer.
"Oh, this must be the famous Hǎo Rén," Old Zeng directed his gaze at Hǎo Rén and adopted an attitude of careful scrutiny.
In that instant, Hǎo Rén had the feeling of being seen through. The icy-cold gaze pierced into him, making him feel uncomfortable all over.
While Old Zeng was talking, the young master standing beside him also stared at Hǎo Rén with a very hostile expression in his eyes.
Just as Qín Shào yáng, who had lost the match, was about to quietly retreat, Sū Hán suddenly stepped forward among the onlookers and said: "Qín Shào yáng, I have some good news for you."
Qín Shào yáng abruptly turned around and glared at Sū Hán.
"I just received a message this morning. You no longer need to serve as a roving inspector, traveling all over the place. The Dragon Deity Temple takes into account your hard work and is assigning you to be an area inspector in the northwest Tian Shan region, starting from tomorrow," Sū Hán said.
Upon hearing this news, half of Qín Shào yáng's face remained dark black while the other half turned from blue to white.
The position seemed favorable on the surface, but it was in a remote and harsh place. Sending him there as an area inspector effectively restricted his authority to that region, which had a hint of relegating him to the frontier.
Seeing Sū Hán's calm face with a touch of smugness, Qín Shào yáng knew it was true what he said and asked somewhat reluctantly: "Why would this happen all of a sudden"
"I'm not sure either. This is an order from headquarters. Perhaps you offended someone, and a high-ranking cultivator went to the Dragon God Temple to file a complaint," Su Han said nonchalantly.
Qin Shaoyang clenched his teeth hard. At this moment, he had lost all face and could no longer stay here. He squeezed his fists tightly and left with a flick of his sleeve. Where there are people, there is a world of intrigue; even the supervisors have their biases. Just like how Su Han has a good relationship with Xia Er'er from the East Sea, Qin Shaoyang leans towards the West Sea!
Old Zeng stared blankly as Qin Shaoyang left, somewhat surprised.
Qin Jianyang is an inspecting supervisor, but his connection to the West Sea is relatively close. His arrival in the East Sea City first can be seen as a small vanguard of the West Sea Dragon Palace. In this round, the East Sea Dragon Palace emerged victorious!
Zhao Guang smiled happily at Zhao Hongyu when he saw Qin Shaoyang leave angrily. He had long known that Qin Shaoyang's stance leaned towards the West Sea, although he wasn't very afraid of him, having him around in the East Sea City was still a threat.
Now, with Qin Shaoyang suddenly being reassigned to Northwest by the internal high command of the inspecting supervisor system, even though they couldn't understand the reason, it was indeed a relief for the East Sea!
An inspecting supervisor has the power to stay in any city, and the duration of their stay is decided by themselves. If Qin Shaoyang wanted to remain in the East Sea City, Zhao Guang and his team would have no way to deal with him.
Su Han was equally pleased inwardly; she enjoys a tranquil environment for cultivation. With Qin Shaoyang handling some affairs in Europe over the past two years, it has been her most smooth period of cultivation. She absolutely detests Qin Shaoyang disturbing her!
If not for the strict prohibition within the supervisory system against mutual killing, she would have already used secret incantations to eliminate him!
Her ordinary attacks may be weaker than Qin Shaoyang's, but she has many devastating ultimate moves! She won't compete with you in terms of practicing techniques; if it comes down to a fight, I will sacrifice five or ten years' worth of cultivation power and unleash world-destroying killing techniques on you. So, Qin Shaoyang is both enamored with and afraid of this beautiful yet madwoman—enamored by her beauty but terrified of her wrath.
When Su Han spoke up, Zeng Yitao, who was beside Old Zeng, finally spotted Zhao Yanzi in the crowd.
Zhao Yanzi's gaze met his; she immediately shrank behind Su Han.
"West Sea Dragon Palace, a thousand purple coral trees! A thousand blocks of West Sea Mystic Ice!" The attendant responsible for recording the gift list shouted loudly outside the door.
They were the last to arrive, but their gifts were the heaviest.
The millennium purple coral could be used in alchemy and also as materials for magical treasures. This was not a surprise, but West Sea Mystic Ice was one of the secrets of the West Sea Dragon Palace and also one type of Mystic Crystal crucial for water-based martial arts cultivation.
Dragon Pills could automatically absorb celestial energy from their surroundings; during lower stages, this effect was most noticeable. However, as one's level increased, it became increasingly difficult to refine further. To continue refining the Dragon Pill at higher levels, one must use a Mystic Crystal that complements their elemental attribute. Otherwise, reaching the Kun and Gān ranks would be sheer fantasy!
Each type of Mystic Crystal was among nature’s most precious treasures; not only were they rare but also extremely difficult to obtain! The West Sea Dragon Palace's geographical location was remote compared to the prosperity of several cities relied upon by the East Sea Dragon Palace, yet they possessed a highly cherished resource: West Sea Mystic Ice!
The annual production of West Sea Mystic Ice was only six blocks. Yet these Mystic Crystals were sufficient for producing numerous high-level martial artists in their region! While the elders of the East Sea Dragon Palace still sought out Mystic Crystals, those from the West Sea had already firmly absorbed them and advanced to higher cultivation levels!
The West Sea's one-time gift of nearly two years' worth of production was indeed a generous gesture for this birthday celebration. Even representatives from South and North Seas were envious.
A thousand blocks of West Sea Mystic Ice, if handed over to the elders nearing higher realms and allowing them to meditate in seclusion, even with occasional failures, at least six or seven Kun-rank martial artists would be cultivated!
Zhao Guang heard this gift list and was slightly surprised. With a loud voice, he said, "Old Zeng is truly generous this time."
"Of course, of course!" Old Zeng nodded his head, as if the gifts were trivial matters; "Our West Sea and your East Sea are future in-laws, these exchanges are only appropriate!"
Repeating old talk, Zhao Guang and Zhao Hongyu glanced at each other with complex expressions. To find out what happens next, please log on.d recklessly."Hao Ren, don't move. Let me try."
