Open up the world in Journey to the West

Chapter 398 The Sea Treasure Was Stolen
"Reporting to the Dragon King, we didn't find it."

Several shrimp soldiers and crab generals knelt down before the Dragon King of the East China Sea. They searched the entire Dragon Palace but found nothing. They lowered their heads, worried that the Dragon King of the East China Sea would get angry.

The Dragon King of the East China Sea had a very ugly expression on his face at this time, this incident was unprecedented, this sudden situation caused the Dragon Palace, which had always been known for its peace and tranquility, to suddenly fall into chaos and panic. The treasure that guarded the safety of the sea, the treasure that stabilized the sea, had disappeared and was mysteriously stolen. This treasure not only contained powerful power, but was also the key to maintaining the balance of the South China Sea waters. Once lost, it would mean the coming of disaster.

"How can I not find it!"

The Dragon King of the East China Sea was furious. He went to the human world to make it rain water, but when he came back he found that the treasure had disappeared.

"Dragon King, we have been standing guard beside the treasure, and we don't know why he suddenly fainted."

The shrimp soldiers and crab generals said that they didn't know what was going on.

"Search, search for it! Dig deep to find it!"

The Dragon King of the East China Sea roared at the shrimp soldiers and crab generals, and then immediately went to Haikou. The disappearance of the treasure might very likely lead to a disaster, so he had to go and take a look.

At this time, the Dragon Palace in the East China Sea was in trouble, and all the shrimp soldiers and crab generals were looking for the whereabouts of the treasure.

“Oh no, oh no…”

Before the Dragon King of the East China Sea arrived at Haikou, a group of shrimp soldiers and crab generals immediately brought bad news.

"what happened?"

The Dragon King was very worried and anxiously asked the shrimp soldiers and crab generals in front of him.

"The sea water is out of control, the waves are surging and rolling, submerging the villages along the coast, many people are drowned, and it is out of control..."

The shrimp soldiers and crab generals brought very bad news. This matter was by no means so simple. As the master of the South China Sea, the Dragon King of the East China Sea could not sit idly by. He immediately took his men to try to recover the treasure of the Dragon Palace and restore peace to the sea. However, this matter was far more complicated than the Dragon King of the East China Sea had imagined, but the Dragon King of the East China Sea refused to give up. There were so many innocent people, so the Dragon King of the East China Sea took his shrimp soldiers and crab generals to rescue the people and search for treasures.

However, things did not always go as planned. The Dragon King of the East China Sea and his shrimp soldiers and crab generals suffered a very huge attack. The attack was so fierce and sudden that many of them were defeated.

Seeing this, the Dragon King of the East Sea had to return to the Dragon Palace to think of other solutions. More and more shrimp soldiers and crab generals went to rescue, but the results were all very bad.

“All dead!”

The only shrimp soldier and crab general who came back alive told the Dragon King of the East China Sea about this incident. He said that this disaster was more severe than they had expected and it would not be so easy to quell it.

"what!"

The Dragon King of the East Sea stood up. Among so many shrimp soldiers and crab generals, only one survived.

"Dragon King, this is like a disaster. We are no longer able to resist. Let's find reinforcements as soon as possible."

A small fry knelt down, not because he was afraid of death, but if things continued to develop like this, many innocent people and small fry would die, and that was a scene that no one wanted to see.

The Dragon King of the East China Sea had a blank mind at this time. He didn't know who to look for reinforcements and who could save the East China Sea.

Suddenly, the Dragon King of the East China Sea quickly thought of Su Zian. It should be that only Su Zian could help him and the entire East China Sea Dragon Palace. Thinking of this, the Dragon King of the East China Sea immediately sent a pigeon to Su Zian, asking him to hurry to the East China Sea.

Su Zian soon received a letter from the Dragon King of the East China Sea via carrier pigeon.

"so serious?"

Sun Wukong was a little surprised when he heard this. He didn't expect that the treasure that guards the sea had been stolen.

"Let's go quickly."

Without further ado, Su Zian and Sun Wukong headed directly to the Dragon Palace in the East China Sea, as the long journey would take some time.

"Don't run! Where are you running to..."

In a deep forest, the voice of a demon hunter was heard, and a white snake was fleeing from this place.

Although he was seriously injured, he was still running forward with all his might.

Suddenly, the white snake transformed into a human form and quickly fled the place, but the demon hunter still chased it relentlessly. After finally getting rid of the demon hunter, the white snake was already seriously injured. If no one could save its life, it would surely die.

When Su Zian and Sun Wukong approached the forest, they already felt the cold air.

"There's a monster nearby!"

Su Zian noticed it keenly, and it should be a snake demon.

Sun Wukong immediately perked up, and sure enough, by the time the two men reacted, the snake demon had already appeared in front of them.

The snake demon knelt down without saying a word.

“Please, save me…”

The white snake was seriously injured. If it was caught by the demon hunter again, the consequences would be disastrous.

"monster!"

Sun Wukong looked at the white snake in front of him and knew at a glance that there must be a demon hunter trying to catch her.

"Save me...I don't want to die, please save me..."

The White Snake is not a bad monster and has never harmed humans. It is just because it is a monster that monster catchers often want to get rid of it.

"You monster, you didn't run away but actually ran right in front of us. Aren't you afraid that we will kill you?"

Sun Wukong will definitely not show mercy when he sees a monster. Since the monster catcher is also looking for it, he might as well kill the monster directly and do it as a favor.

Without saying a word, Sun Wukong took out his golden cudgel and was about to attack the white snake.

"Goku."

Su Zian spoke at this time. The situation in the East China Sea Dragon Palace was very serious. They could not continue to spend time in this place. It would be a waste of time.

Seeing that Su Zian stopped him from killing the monster, Sun Wukong looked at Su Zian with confusion.

"It's not a bad monster. It has never hurt humans. There's no need to kill it."

Su Zian knew this very well, so he didn't want to kill innocent people.

Hearing that Su Zian saved him, the White Snake burst into tears of gratitude and kowtowed immediately.

"The demon hunter is still looking for you. He can smell your blood. Take this pill and you will be fine."

Su Zian didn't want to meddle in other people's business, but he saved her on the way, so it was fate.

"thanks, thanks.."

Baishe took the pill from Su Zian's hand and swallowed it, and soon the pain in her body disappeared.

"Run for your life."

Su Zian didn't want to waste any more time, so he prepared to leave.

"Wait a moment."

The white snake blocked their way.

"Since you saved me, I am willing to follow you for the rest of my life and do anything for you. Please let me follow you."

The white snake looked at Su Zian with a pious face, knowing that she would be very safe following him.

"You'd better leave quickly. I won't keep monsters around me."

Su Zian refused without any hesitation. The white snake watched Su Zian and Sun Wukong leave. It didn't want to lose the opportunity to follow Su Zian, so it followed them quietly.

Su Zian and Sun Wukong met a demon catcher who was looking for the whereabouts of the white snake. "Did you two see the white snake when you came over there?"

The demon catcher was obviously very anxious.

"No, we have important things to deal with, so we'll leave first."

Su Zian didn't have time to continue talking nonsense with him, so the two of them quickly left the place.

The monster catcher felt very strange. He could smell the monster's blood just now, but now he could smell nothing.

The Dragon King of the East China Sea was worried in the Dragon Palace. The disaster in the Dragon Palace caused countless deaths and injuries to the villagers along the coast. If this problem could not be solved, the consequences would become more and more serious.

The Dragon King of the East Sea could neither sit still nor stand, so he paced back and forth in the hall.

"Report to the Dragon King, Su Zian and Sun Wukong are here."

Finally, the news from the two people came, and the Dragon King of the East Sea was very excited and went to greet them immediately.

"You are finally here. You have seen the current situation without me telling you. The treasure of my Dragon Palace has been stolen. Now it is like a natural disaster. We cannot resist it."

The Dragon King of the East Sea said anxiously that he had no other options and could only place all his hopes on Su Zian.

"We received your pigeon message and rushed here immediately. What happened?"

Su Zian must find out the whole story. It may not be that easy to find the treasure that can suppress the sea. Only by knowing the whole story can he analyze the matter properly.

"Everything was peaceful at first. I just went to heaven to make it rain. Who would have thought that when I came back, I would hear this news. By the time I took action, it was too late."

The Dragon King of the East Sea said this with great regret, thinking that it was his fault for not keeping it well.

"The Dragon Palace has always been heavily guarded. It's probably not an easy thing to sneak into the Dragon Palace. Have you ever thought that this might have been done by someone in the Dragon Palace?"

Su Zian frowned. The Dragon Palace was heavily guarded. There were so many shrimp soldiers and crab generals alone, it was impossible for anyone to sneak in, so the most likely person was someone in the Dragon Palace.

"It's not like I haven't thought about it, but I can't find this person at the moment."

The Dragon King of the East Sea sighed. He had thought of everything he could think of, but he couldn't find the whereabouts of the Dragon Ball.

"Now that things have developed to such a serious level, we must hurry up and find the treasure that can calm the sea in order to quell this disaster. Otherwise, no matter what, there is no way to restore the Dragon Palace to its former peace, as well as this sea area and the villagers along the coast."

Su Zian looked at the Dragon King of the East China Sea. Only the Dragon King of the East China Sea knew the people in his Dragon Palace best, so he had to seize every second.

"What to do?"

The Dragon King of the East Sea was stumped for a moment and didn't know what to do.

"Gather all the people in the Dragon Palace together, except for those who died. Anyone who didn't come must be thoroughly investigated. The Dragon Palace is heavily guarded. It's probably not that easy to sneak in, unless you have great magical powers."

Su Zian could only start his search from the most basic level, so he could only start from the Dragon Palace.

The Dragon King of the East Sea felt that Su Zian was right, but the sea was now turbulent and he had to hurry up and find a solution. If it continued like this, all the villagers within a ten-mile radius would be drowned.

“How can we calm the seas?”

The Dragon King of the East Sea looked at Su Zian. Now all hopes rested on him.

"Let's go take a look first."

Su Zian doesn’t have a good solution at the moment, but if he checks it out, there might be a way.

"it is good."

In this way, the three of them came to Haikou. At this time, the wind and waves were huge, and the sea was turbulent, as if they would be submerged in the next second.

Sun Wukong immediately took out his magic weapon. Although it could only temporarily help the East China Sea Dragon Palace overcome this difficulty and he didn't know when the sea would become turbulent again, it still calmed it down at this moment.

"This is just a delaying tactic. We must hurry up and find the treasure that can stabilize the sea."

Su Zian said as he looked at the Dragon King of the East China Sea.

"Zi'an, I'm afraid I'll have to trouble you again this time. You really have to think of a solution for me. I'm at my wits' end."

The Dragon King of the East Sea really had no other options. All the shrimp soldiers and crab generals in his palace were dead or disappeared. He really didn't know what to do.

"Let's go back first and find the treasure that can suppress the sea."

Now that the sea has calmed down temporarily, they can breathe a sigh of relief and think of ways to find the treasure that can stabilize the sea.

When the white snake saw several people leaving, it immediately followed them.

But he couldn’t sneak into the Dragon Palace in the East China Sea and could only wait at the door.

None of them knew that everything that had just happened was seen by the sneaky white snake nearby. It followed Su Zian and the others all the way and only then did it realize that such a big thing had happened in the Dragon Palace in the East China Sea. If they had not run fast, they would have been submerged in it.

"Thanks to you, the sea has been calmed down temporarily."

The Dragon King of the East Sea looked at Su Zian and Sun Wukong with gratitude. If they had not come to help quickly, the situation would have become worse.

"You are joking, Dragon King. This is what we should do."

Su Zian told the Dragon King of the East China Sea not to worry about it, they would definitely find a way to help him through this difficult time.

"We still have to find the treasure that can stabilize the sea as soon as possible."

Sun Wukong felt that this matter was extremely complicated.

Several people are trying to find a solution.

The White Snake was sneaking around, but she never expected that suddenly a group of shrimp soldiers and crab generals would come over and her whereabouts would be completely exposed.

"monster!"

Someone among the shrimp soldiers and crab generals shouted.

When the white snake turned around and tried to escape, it was already controlled by these shrimp soldiers and crab generals.

The shrimp soldiers and crab generals immediately forced the white snake to come in front of the Dragon King of the East China Sea.

"Report to the Dragon King, this monster is sneaking around our door."

"White snake!"

Su Zian never imagined that this white snake would follow them all the way to the East China Sea.

"What are you doing here sneaking around, you monster?"

The Dragon King of the East Sea was very angry when he saw the white snake demon in front of him. Such a thing had happened in the Dragon Palace of the East Sea, and now another monster appeared.

"Take it away and kill it!"

The Dragon King of the East Sea gave a direct order, letting the shrimp soldiers and crab generals take the white snake's life.

"Dragon King, no!"

Su Zian reacted and quickly stopped the Dragon King of the East China Sea.

The White Snake's heart finally settled down.
