The previously calm sea surface beca tumultuous, a massive vortex appeared on the surface of the water, countless seas were sucked into the vortex, with gigantic waves rising, and the entire ocean seed to be shaking.
Lu Yu smiled at the already stunned The Fourth Prince and said, "Will this work?"
Although The Fourth Prince was fierce in words, he actually had little contact with the outside world, after all, the Dragon Clan was in decline, and their status was quite awkward. Thus, he had always been living reclusively in the West Sea Dragon Palace, getting news mostly from subordinates, which was hard to distinguish between true and false. Therefore, he had not heard of Lu Yu’s na.
However, seeing Lu Yu’s skills, how could he not know that this was a master?
Although he was proud and arrogant, he had good judgnt. No matter how fierce he had seed earlier, much of it was boasting. Now, seeing that he had unintentionally offended a highly skilled person, his heart was already in turmoil, and he did not know how to respond.
Fortunately, at this mont, Ao Run, the West Sea Dragon King, sensing the disturbance, hurried over. As soon as he broke the surface, he saw the scene of Lu Yu displaying his Divine Skills, and his heart was instantly shocked.
While his own child was unaware of Lu Yu, how could he be ignorant? Hearing from his elder brother, this man had fought with the great deity at the East Sea shores, turning the sky red. Especially since Lu Yu was proficient in Water Arts, his threat to them, the Aquatic Tribes, was even greater, as could be seen from the skills he had just displayed.
"High Immortal, please quell your anger, quell your anger," pleaded Ao Run as he hurriedly approached Lu Yu, bowing deeply and incessantly apologizing.
This master was in an inseparable relationship with that Monkey, and now, with the Monkey about to escape from his shackles, if he truly angered Lu Yu, it would an offending the Monkey too. A major disaster was imminently near, so how could Ao Run not be burning with anxiety.
After speaking, he even slapped his own son on the face, angrily scolding him, "Aren’t you going to apologize to Mr. Lu right away!"
The Fourth Prince, struck by his father’s slap, saw stars. Knowing that his father was truly furious, he was extrely frightened. It’s known that his father had only recently denounced his Third Brother for disobedience, which led to the Third Brother being placed on the Dragon Execution Platform. If not for Bodhisattva Guanyin’s plea, his brother might have already been dead.
With his face red from the slap, he lowered his head, his voice trembling with fear as he said, "Sir, I was blind to the greatness, I beg you to be magnanimous and spare this once."
"Yes, Mr. Lu, this child, having grown up in the deep sea, is inexperienced and shallow, which has fostered his arrogant nature. I hope you will have rcy on him and not hold this against him," Ao Run also pleaded on the side, after all, it was his own child. He had gone through the painful decision of sending his Third Brother to the Dragon Execution Platform, knowing it would be safe.
But now he did not have this reassurance, so his words carried a plea.
"I am not so wicked deity or evil spirit, Old Dragon King, there is no need for such, but your son really needs to change his temper. Otherwise, he won’t even know how he might die soday," said Lu Yu gently.
But to Ao Run, hearing this was a chilling shock, as the words made him suddenly recall his nephew who was flayed and boned by Nezha. If it weren’t for his proud nature, how could he have brought about his murderous fate?
He silently resolved that once this matter was settled, he would certainly discipline his child strictly, to avoid future troubles that could not only cost his own life but also bring suffering to the entire Dragon Palace.
After settling that matter, Ao Run turned to the Dragon Queen and said, "Sister, you’ve had a hard journey crossing mountains and rivers, you should hurry ho and wash off the dust. The matter of your husband is well understood by everyone, and now it can be considered the best possible outco. Don’t be too sad; you still need to take care of yourself."
Having said that, he then spoke to Lao Qi, "Xiao Qi, I haven’t seen you in many days and you have already grown into a fine young man. Treat your uncle’s ho as your own and don’t feel constrained. If anyone dares to disrespect you, do not hold back your voice, your uncle will see justice done on your behalf."
Lao Qi, who was no longer the Ignorant Youth, had transford after a period of careful ntoring by Lu Yu. He was no longer that reckless, trouble-making young fool. He bowed deeply and said respectfully, "Uncle, I hope you are in good health."
Ao Run was greatly surprised as he looked at the polite young man before him. He examined him several tis to confirm that this indeed was his nephew, who once was good for nothing. He did not know when his nephew had beco so well-mannered and dignified, now appearing to be a promising young leader, which sowhat shad his own fourth son.
"Sister, Xiao Qi has changed so much, I can hardly recognize him," he remarked with a sigh.
As a parent, nothing is more pleasing than hearing soone praise your child. The Dragon Queen modestly responded, "This is all thanks to Mr. Lu’s devoted teaching in recent days, which has led to Xiao Qi’s transformation."
Ao Run looked at Lu Yu with newfound respect, knowing Lu Yu’s exceptional skills but not realizing that his teaching abilities were equally impressive. Knowing all too well what his nephew used to be like, this change was as if looking at a completely different person, proving Lu Yu’s capability as a teacher.
"I never expected the teacher to have such skills; it truly astonishes ," he said, complinting Lu Yu with a smile with a flash of eagerness in his eyes, wishing that Lu Yu could similarly instruct his own wayward son. However, he also did not dare to ask outright, aware that not every master has a good temper.
"It was rely fulfilling the responsibility of a ntor," Lu Yu said with a smile, waving his hand dismissively.
When the three followed the entourage back to the Dragon Palace, Ao Run had already prepared a banquet to welco and cleanse them of dust. No unpleasant incidents occurred during the dinner, as having witnessed Lu Yu’s capabilities, everyone at the court was still sowhat apprehensive. The dinner ended in a harmonious and warm atmosphere.
The next day, Lu Yu proposed his farewell to the Dragon Queen. Lao Qi, standing beside them, was already in tears. After saying goodbye to his father and brothers, he was now faced with bidding farewell to another significant person in his life, and grief overwheld him, tears overflowing uncontrollably.
"Master, father has left, and my brothers have departed as well, and now you are also leaving!" Lao Qi’s words carried deep sorrow, no longer resembling the boisterous Chaos Demon King he once was at the Jing River Dragon Palace; instead, he seed like a holess child, reluctantly looking at Lu Yu as he spoke.
Lu Yu gently patted Lao Qi’s head and said with a smile, "This world is inevitably full of partings. If you cannot bear it, the only solution is to beco stronger. After I leave, you must not neglect your training.
If there is anything you do not understand, you can go to Mountain Luoxia and find your senior brother; he will clarify your doubts." After saying this, he pointed gently and transmitted the information about his dwelling place to Lao Qi.
