From the Carp that Brings Children to the Celestial Officials

Chapter 394: Visitors from Heaven
"How come it's such a bunch of Celestial Dragons?"

Seeing the figures on the jade boat, You Ming secretly cursed his bad luck.

He didn't actually have a good impression of the cultivators in the Heavenly Realm, because he had discovered these parasites when he was weaving marriages with the Weaver Girls on the Red Phoenix Star.

These celestial beings, relying on their powerful connections, were nominally working as assistants to the Weaver Girls, but each of them only wanted to use the loom to glimpse their true nature so they could seize the opportunity to break through their limitations.

You Ming witnessed it firsthand; none of them did a single task, they just freeloaded. Some even stood right next to the looms, interfering with the weavers' work.

"They are celestial beings, not celestial dragons, and have nothing to do with the dragon race."

Hearing You Ming's low understatement, Long Jun also quietly corrected him.

The so-called celestial beings are those who, due to their profound merits, are reborn as celestial beings after death, and are born in the heavenly realm.

Although they also need to cultivate, with the help of various resources, they will basically not encounter any bottlenecks before undergoing the [Tribulation].

"Yes, yes, I misspoke. They are not Celestial Dragons."

"So, are they here to freeload off on 'A Dream of Yellow Millet' too?"

Looking at these people, You Ming figured that based on their habit of "mooching" off others, it was pretty much the truth.

“You’re absolutely right. They really are here to freeload. Jiang Shen didn’t invite them, but unfortunately, these people are backed by Taiyi Heavenly Palace. Even we… Ninth Princess can’t afford to offend them.”

Long Jun smiled, seemingly somewhat helpless.

"By order of the Taiyi Heavenly Palace, eighteen disciples are being sent to the [Yellow Millet Dream] for training. We request that Lord River God open the Water Palace."

The entire ship was as clear as if it were carved from white jade, with runes entwined around it and clouds surrounding it, like a celestial palace that had fallen to earth.

Many young cultivators, all dressed in fine clothes and surrounded by divine light, looked down at the entire water palace from above.

The one who spoke was a Taoist priest in white robes, with a calm face and eyes like a starry sea, his cultivation unfathomable. He stood at the bow of the jade boat, his voice booming like a bell, echoing throughout the underwater palace.

Although he spoke respectfully, upon closer listening, it seemed that he wasn't very polite at all.

"That really is a case of an unwelcome guest arriving at the door."

"Even if they are unwelcome guests, what can we do? The Dragon Clan of the Four Seas, although they claim to be the spirits of heaven and earth, were banished to the mortal realm countless years ago and have long been far removed from the center of power."

Long Jun looked at the jade boat in the sky, his eyes narrowed slightly, and a hint of coldness seemed to emanate from them.

"Distinguished guests from the celestial realm have arrived. Please rest at the [Linyuan Pavilion]. I have suffered some damage to my vital energy due to the condensation of the [Yellow Millet Dream], so I will not be able to receive you all."

"Please make yourselves at home, everyone."

A slightly authoritative voice came from inside the main hall, and then the entire formation of the Water Palace dissipated, and the surrounding water flow parted on its own.

"Let's go down."

The white-robed Taoist priest remained calm, then flicked his sleeve, and the entire white jade boat slowly descended.

However, perhaps because the ship was so heavy, the bricks beneath it continued to crack when it landed, leaving a deep mark.

Inside the Dragon Palace, the aquatic officials' expressions changed slightly, and anger flashed in their eyes, but no one dared to utter a sound.

These celestial cultivators belong to the Taiyi Heavenly Palace, which is the true number one sect in the celestial realm. It is the lineage of the Taiyi Dao Master and has an extremely high reputation.

"Hmm? Is anyone staying at Tianhai Pavilion?"

The white-robed Taoist priest, standing at the bow of the boat, suddenly sensed something and looked up in the direction of Tianhai Pavilion.

The aquatic creatures around them did not respond. Although they were trembling under the aura of this immortal, it was the River Goddess's business to let people stay in the Tianhai Pavilion. Since the goddess had not spoken, they dared not speak up.

"interesting."

"However, it's not up to you, Ninth Princess, to decide who can actually move into Tianhai Pavilion."

The white-robed Taoist's eyes were like lightning, as if he could see through all matter and see clearly who lived inside the Tianhai Pavilion.

In an instant, the array within the entire water mansion rose again, transforming into streams of light that directly blocked his view.

"Everyone, let's rest at Lin Yuan Pavilion first." The voice of the Goddess of the River Goddess came again. Although she still had that calm and composed demeanor, anyone could feel the chill in her voice.

"Hey, that's good."

A glint flashed in the white-robed Taoist's eyes, but he quickly concealed it.

……

"This guy is really arrogant."

The moment the other party looked over, although Jiang Shen Niangniang eventually stopped him, You Ming could still feel the domineering look in her eyes.

This person is at the level of an immortal. If I don't use the cheat code, and he just stares at me, my consciousness will probably be shattered.

A cultivator certainly couldn't withstand the malice of an immortal.

"This man is named Xun Guangxian, an elder of Taiyi Heaven Palace. With the backing of Taiyi Heaven Palace, he acts with impunity."

Long Jun's expression was also not good, but she quickly hid it and simply spoke calmly.

The true heaven above Taiyi Palace is Taiyi Daozhu, Beichen Dijun, who has a dual identity in both the divine and immortal paths, and stands at the pinnacle in both.

I've heard that this Dao Lord has always sought to unify the Heavenly Realm, wanting to become the Heavenly Emperor, and then go even further to become the ruler of the Great Dao.

Instead of just controlling one-ninth of the Great Dao as it is now.

In the eyes of Taiyi Heavenly Palace, the mere dragon race is nothing at all.

"Is it because I am currently undergoing a tribulation? I just came to attend a banquet, and I have to get caught up in this kind of conflict."

You Ming felt somewhat helpless.

These people are so domineering; going against them is never a good thing.

I am already disliked by both the immortals and gods in the mortal realm. Do I really want to offend another group of immortals in heaven?

"Haha, it's not that exaggerated."

"Besides, I think these people might not be a calamity for you; they might even be a blessing in disguise."

Long Yun winked at You Ming.

"hope so."

You Ming considered himself a good person, someone who didn't want to cause trouble. He just wanted to cultivate peacefully, and if he could, he would even want to stay in Yuanling Mountain for the rest of his life.

He had no desire to get involved in such disputes.

"However, Fellow Daoist You."

"Now that such a group of people has arrived, it seems we'll have to join forces in the [Dream of the Yellow Millet]."

"Otherwise, given their personality, they would definitely kick us out immediately."

Long Jun pondered for a moment before speaking.

"What do you mean? Why do we need to join forces?"

"Is this dream of wealth and glory still dangerous?"

You Ming frowned. Why was this all so complicated? He hadn't really wanted to participate in the first place, and now he was even thinking of going straight home.

"There's no real danger, but if we get kicked out too early, this opportunity will be wasted."

"After all, the dream of wealth and glory has to last for a thousand years, and the longer it lasts, the better the effect will be."

"Moreover, I've heard that if you have the chance to stay until the end, there are some special opportunities."

Long Jun stood next to You Ming and slowly began to speak.
