Please go ahead, Great Saint.
The Dragon Clan commands the Four Seas and will surely find delicacies to Princess’s liking,”
Ao Guang said with a smile.
In truth, he was well aware that what Sun Wukong and the others cared about wasn’t the food, but rather the attitude of the Ancestral Dragons.
If those forebears were as cold and disagreeable as they had been during the last visit,
the relationship between the Dragon Clan and Sun Wukong would not be expected to improve.
Ao Guang parted the waters and led the way personally.
Outside the Dragon Palace, the Ancestral Dragon himself ca out to welco them.
The children of the Ancestral Dragons were all smiles, though they felt uncomfortable inside, they had to feign enthusiasm.
Upon seeing Sun Wukong and his party approaching, the children of the Ancestral Dragon sighed with relief.
Last ti, their disdain toward Nu Ba and her company was, bluntly put, a form of contempt for Sun Wukong.
If they had respected Sun Wukong, no matter whom he brought along, they would have suppressed any dissatisfaction and not have shown it, or even felt it.
Whatever the strong do is always right.
Can’t accept that?
Bear with it.
This ti, Sun Wukong fought against a Supre, vanquished him, and ascended to the realm of Great Heavenly Venerate.
Even a Supre would not dare to slight him.
The children of the Ancestral Dragons naturally did the sa, truly acknowledging Sun Wukong as a force equal to a Supre.
Consequently, they dared not harbor any dissatisfaction.
Offending a Supre because of personal emotions was sothing not even a fool would do.
Sun Wukong might not be a Supre, but he possessed a might and influence that was no less than one.
“Welco, Great Saint, welco Princess Nu Ba,”
they all shouted as Sun Wukong’s group drew near.
Apart from the Ancestral Dragon, even his children raised their voices.
After shouting the slogans, the faces of the Ancestral Dragon’s children flushed with a sense of sha.
Having lived since the Primordial era, this was the first ti they had engaged in such an act, and it was truly embarrassing.
Now they all wished they could crawl into a hole and hide.
Sun Wukong was also startled by this grand reception but soon burst into laughter, saying, “What’s with all this pomp and splendor?
You gave Old Sun a scare.”
The Ancestral Dragon smiled, having been the only one who hadn’t shouted.
Though he had orchestrated this event, the act itself also made him feel embarrassed.
Indeed very humiliating, his cheeks slightly heated.
However, seeing the smile on Sun Wukong’s face, the Ancestral Dragon knew that the strategy was effective.
To nd the relationship with Sun Wukong, so embarrassing things had to be done, despite the discomfort.
“Nowadays, the Great Saint’s fa resounds throughout the Three Realms, having slain a Supre and pacified the turmoil of the Ancient Gods and Devils in just a few days.
Who in the Three Realms doesn’t know the Great Saint’s na?
Even the Supres regard the Great Saint with awe.
For the Great Saint to honor the Dragon Clan with his presence, truly brings glory to us,”
the Ancestral Dragon said with a beaming smile, holding Sun Wukong in the highest regard.
After glancing at the Ancestral Dragon, Sun Wukong hadn’t expected him to be so polite.
It seed that the Ancestral Dragon truly wanted to repair their relationship.
And last ti, it hadn’t been the Ancestral Dragon that angered him, but his sons.
Moreover, as Ao Zhan’s father and having once stepped in to protect him, Sun Wukong naturally didn’t want to embarrass the other too much or make it difficult for him to save face.
He smiled lightly and replied, “The Ancestral Dragon flatters , but it was just luck.
Besides, slaying a Supre was also due to my brother Yang Jian’s rit.
It wasn’t sothing Old Sun could achieve alone.”
Seeing Sun Wukong refusing to take all the credit, the Ancestral Dragon praised, “Victory without pride, such a temperant is rare in the world, we all admire it.”
Sun Wukong felt almost overwheld and with a wry smile, he said, “All right, Ancestral Dragon, I understand your intentions.
Nu Ba has already put the past incident behind her, there’s no need for such flattery, it’s truly unbearable.”
“Haha,”
laughed the Ancestral Dragon.
Sun Wukong also showed a broad smile.
“Princess Nu Ba truly lives up to the na as the daughter of the Yellow Emperor, a Human Princess and a top class warrior, indeed magnanimous, I admire that,”
the Ancestral Dragon said with a laugh.
Nu Ba smiled slightly, appearing quite composed as she was accustod to such situations.
“You overpraise , Ancestral Dragon.
I dare not take the credit,”
she said, positioning herself a step behind Sun Wukong, making it clear that she deferred to him.
The Ancestral Dragon naturally could not keep lavishing praise on a Fairy lest he is misunderstood as an old lecher, which would be unseemly.
He then invited Sun Wukong and the others into the Dragon Palace.
The banquet in the Dragon Palace was lavish, with various exquisite dishes and ingredients prepared to perfection by the Dragon Clan’s chefs.
There were also all sorts of Spirit Fruits that, if put up for grabs, even Heavenly Venerates would fight over, spilling blood.
But here, they were simply placed on the table like ordinary fruits for consumption.
Sun Wukong, however, didn’t stand on ceremony, sending various delicacies to Nu Ba, urging her to eat more.
Nu Ba felt sowhat embarrassed; as a female immortal, how could she feast like a male immortal?
Whether it was her status as a Human Princess or Sun Wukong’s close female friend, she couldn’t behave in such a way without losing face.
She ate modestly, tasting a little of everything, and then ceased.
Sun Wukong, while eating, paid no attention to the Ancestral Dragon and the others.
The faces of the Ancestral Dragon’s children wore smiles, appearing enthusiastic, but there was nevertheless a difficulty in their hearts.
“Great Saint, just now I sensed an aura related to the fire elent.
Could it be Yinghuo?”
the Ancestral Dragon suddenly asked.
Sun Wukong set down what he was holding and nodded, “It was Yinghuo.
He, along with a son of Emperor Jun and Shao Siming, joined forces to attack , or perhaps it was more of a probing action.
Seeing that they couldn’t kill Old Sun, they imdiately fled.”
