Chapter 176 Mom’s Friend

The Dragon King of the East Sea was a wealthy and powerful man with many children. Among them, the Fourth Princess was one of the most troublesome for the Dragon King. She was an old maid, thousands of years old, and still hadn't considered marriage. Her younger siblings were all married, but the Fourth Princess remained indifferent.

At today's banquet, the old Dragon King still harbored fantasies about his daughter, hoping that she would catch his eye on the girl who came by the roadside today, thus fulfilling his long-cherished wish.

However, the old Dragon King's wish vanished after the Fourth Princess shouted at Chenxiang, "How do you have the Lotus Lantern?"

"What is the Lotus Lantern?" Eighth Prince Ao Chun asked blankly.

"Ok?"

For a moment, everyone present looked at the Eighth Prince Ao Chun. Ao Chun was born late and had little knowledge. He had never seen the Lotus Lantern and was unaware of its power.

"Cough cough..."

The old Dragon King coughed.

The Dragon King of the East Sea has a dragon head, while the Fourth Princess and the Eighth Prince are both human-shaped.

"Child, is your name Chenxiang?" the Fourth Princess asked.

"Does she recognize you?" Lu Bian looked at Chen Xiang.

“I am Chenxiang,” Chenxiang replied.

"..."

The fourth princess looked at Chenxiang with a complicated expression, then suddenly laughed.

"Do you know that I held you when you were just born?" the Fourth Princess said to Chenxiang.

"what?!"

"what?"

The old Dragon King and the young Eighth Prince were also surprised.

"What's going on?" the roadside asked the Fourth Princess.

"Who are you to Chenxiang?" The Fourth Princess asked the roadside instead of explaining.

“I am Chenxiang’s adopted father, and he has been living with me for the past few years.”

"Adoptive father?"

"Do you know her mother?" the fourth princess asked again, pointing to the roadside.

“I made a statue of Chenxiang’s mother, so I can barely say I’ve seen her,” the roadside man replied.

"Mortals?" The Fourth Princess looked around at the roadside.

“My godfather is no ordinary man,” Chenxiang said.

"You've got guts."

"Do you know about those things too?" the roadside asked the Fourth Princess.

"Mm." The fourth princess nodded.

"This..." The old Dragon King looked left and right, wondering what his fourth daughter was hiding from him.

The Dragon King of the East Sea knew one thing: his fourth daughter and Erlang Shen's sister were good friends.

"Father," the fourth princess called out to the old Dragon King.

"Ouch!"

“My dear sister is now trapped under Mount Hua, and Chenxiang is her child,” the Fourth Princess said.

"Why did you tell me this..."

"Since you've invited them to your home, I have no choice but to tell you," the Fourth Princess said.

"..."

The Dragon King, a renowned powerhouse in the Three Realms, had offended two others: Nezha and his neighbor, the Great Sage Equaling Heaven. Now, he felt he was about to offend a third: Erlang Shen, the True Lord of Manifestation.

The Dragon King of the East Sea is the head of the Four Seas Dragon Kings. The longer he stays in this position, the more cautious and timid he becomes.

The two people I offended in the past were a child and a monkey, but we've restored our relationship with them now. But the person I'm going to offend now is Erlang Shen, which is a different story.

“Chenxiang, I was the one who delivered you when you were born,” the Fourth Princess said.

"That year on Mount Hua, your uncle killed your father with a chop, simply because he knew your mother was pregnant."

"Your mother later hid on an island in the East China Sea, and only returned to the Southern Continent after you were born."

"Actually, you should still call me godmother," the Fourth Princess said to Chenxiang.

“Godmother…” Chenxiang called out to the Fourth Princess.

The fourth princess changed her position, moving from beside the old Dragon King to sit next to Chenxiang. "Let me take a good look at you."

The Fourth Princess immediately reached out and pinched Chenxiang's cheek, squeezing out one side of the flesh.

"Your godfather raised you quite well..."

“My godfather has been very good to me…” Chenxiang was somewhat at a loss.

She's my mother's friend, and their relationship is quite close.

The Fourth Princess then patted Chenxiang's shoulders and squeezed his arms, discovering that Chenxiang was very sturdy.

"Your family is truly gifted."

“It reminds me of your uncle,” the fourth princess said.

“It has nothing to do with him; this is the result of my godfather training me,” Chenxiang said.

“Daughter, you don’t know yet…” The old Dragon King beckoned.

"Come here, I'll tell you..."

The Fourth Princess returned to the Old Dragon King's side, and the Old Dragon King leaned close to her ear and told her in detail about how Lu Bian had withstood one of the three calamities, a fire, in the East China Sea.

"what?"

"A genius..."

The Fourth Princess stared incredulously at the roadside. What kind of innate deity was this? It was even enduring the burning Yin Fire and hadn't been burned to death.

"Are you talking about overcoming the three calamities?"

"Aren't we supposed to be avoiding the three calamities?" Eighth Prince Ao Chun finally had a chance to join the conversation.

"No, no." The old Dragon King immediately skipped over the topic of the Three Calamities.

For those who seek immortality, the Three Calamities are an unavoidable topic. Regardless of how one overcomes these calamities, once one survives them, one achieves immortality, becoming one with heaven and earth. However, the methods for overcoming the Three Calamities are always the most likely to bring about human calamity.

The fourth princess looked at the roadside again and found that her feelings were different again.

There are very few people in the world who can attract her, but now there's one by the roadside.

In fact, she also couldn't understand what it was about Chenxiang's father, Liu Yanchang, that attracted her best friend, Yang Chan.

"Do you know Chenxiang's father?" the Fourth Princess suddenly asked, leaning closer to the roadside.

"do not know."

"That's good," the Fourth Princess said.

"It's okay if you don't know me."

"Do you know what kind of person Chenxiang's father was?" someone asked by the roadside.

"That person..."

"I'd better not say anything more," the Fourth Princess said, glancing at Chenxiang.

"Let's leave some hope for Chenxiang."

"Oh."

As he stood by the roadside, he wondered if this meant that Chenxiang's father, Liu Yanchang, wasn't a good person.
Fine.

These are problems that Chenxiang should face himself, not himself.

“Chenxiang, has your godfather treated you badly? You can tell me boldly, and your godmother will stand up for you,” the Fourth Princess said.

"But, but I dare not make that decision!" the old Dragon King said in a panic, while the fourth princess rolled her eyes at her father.

"Don't be afraid! Tell your godmother. Don't be afraid that your godmother can't beat your godfather. Your godmother has helpers," the Fourth Princess said to Chenxiang.

"My godfather is really good to me!"

"it is true!"

The Fourth Princess stared intently at Chenxiang.

“Well… actually, my godfather was somewhat unwilling to be my godfather,” Chenxiang said helplessly to the Fourth Princess.

"Do you know what state Chenxiang was in when I first met him?" the roadside man said. "He was thinking about how to kill his uncle all the time. Luckily, I corrected him."

"Otherwise, Chenxiang will be a great menace when he grows up." People spoke without any restraint by the roadside.

Chenxiang's eyes darted around.

The roadside used magnetic field reading to perceive this thought buried deep in Chenxiang's heart, rather than Chenxiang saying it himself.
