Sleeping for a second increases my blood energy. I become the strongest sky-swallowing snake

"The person is gone?"

Ao Xingchi also stared at Ao Sanqu with a look of surprise and uncertainty.

If it had been before, he would have been eager for Bai Chengyou to be kidnapped, preferably killed.

But now that he knows that he needs to bring this kid back to the South Sea Dragon Palace alive in order to unlock the Dragon King's inheritance, he is equally anxious when he hears that the person is gone.

He stared at Ao Sanqu, also because he knew that this River Dragon King was from the White Dragon clan.

Therefore, he felt that his eighth brother's suspicion was not without reason.

Ao Xingji, who was beside him, was secretly thinking: Could it be that the Little Dragon Palace had made other arrangements?

Taking advantage of their departure on the big ship, they took action?

At this moment, a demon soldier who came to report from outside the door was led in.

With a thud, he knelt down in front of the two princes.

"How did Bai Chengyou disappear?" Ao Xingchi asked.

"Second Prince!" The shrimp soldier bowed and shouted, "Not long after the two princes left, we were patrolling according to the eighth prince's instructions. When we arrived at the young master Bai's room, we shouted his name from outside the house as before."

"But no one answered!"

When no one answered, they were about to report and take the compass magic mirror to see the situation inside the house.

"The adjutant general checked, and there was no one inside!"

If it's not in the mirror, then the person must no longer be in the formation.

"Hand over Bai Chengyou!"

"Otherwise, I'll kill you!"

Ao Xingzhou held a weapon in his hand, his body filled with anger, and boundless demonic power erupted from his body.

The demon cloud enveloped him, making it almost impossible to see his face, only a pair of round, glaring eyes staring at Ao Sanqu.

It looked as if he would attack immediately if the other party dared not agree.

"Eighth Prince!"

"This matter has nothing to do with me!"

Ao Sanqu naturally denied it outright.

Even if he had done it, he wouldn't admit it at this time!

"Your two Highnesses!" He continued, "I have been on this island all along. Master Chengkong can be my witness!"

Monk Chengkong nodded and said, "That's right, this humble monk has been here these past two days discussing scriptures with the Dragon King, and can testify that he has not left this place."

"This…" Ao Xingchi was stunned.

In fact, there was no need to ask where Ao Sanqu had been these past two days.

Just ask about today's whereabouts.

Because when they left the ship, Bai Chengyou was still in the room.

"Humph! This is your cunning!"

Ao Xingzhou ignored all this and roared.

"Eighth Prince, what do you mean by this?" Xu Chengxian, with a tightly furrowed brow, stood up holding his horsetail whisk.

"Humph, Daoist Xu, haven't you seen it yet? This Ao Sanqu thinks we're all fools to be easily fooled!"

Ao Xingzhou pointed at Ao Sanqu and said, "White Dragon King, I ask you, the princes of my South Sea Dragon Palace have come here. According to etiquette, shouldn't you come forward to pay your respects?"

"But you deliberately avoided seeing us!"

"Eighth Prince, I said, I didn't know…"

"You didn't know? How could the affairs on this Two Realm River escape your notice?" Ao Xingzhou was furious, "Even the affairs of Xuzhou City, there's no reason for you not to know!"

Ao Sanqu really couldn't refute this.

Because this was his duty!

"You have nothing to say?" Ao Xingzhou pressed on relentlessly, "I see that you clearly deliberately lured us here!"

"As soon as we left, Bai Chengyou disappeared. Is this what you wanted?"

"Why would I do such a thing?"

"You want to lure the tiger away from the mountain!"

"…"

What Ao Sanqu wanted to say was that he had no reason to do this, and he dared to ask this because he relied on the fact that the South Sea Dragon Palace cared about face and couldn't expose the fact that he was part of the White Dragon clan.

But he didn't expect that Ao Xingzhou would stubbornly hold onto the fact that he didn't go to pay his respects.

However, this was indeed a fact.

An idiot outsmarted a clever man!

"Eighth Prince, this matter is indeed not my doing," Ao Sanqu said.

"Eighth Prince, do you have any evidence to suspect the White Dragon King like this?" Seeing this, Xu Chengxian spoke again.

He couldn't let Ao Sanqu find a way to break the situation.

This White Dragon King was cunning and deep-minded. He was only caught off guard for a moment. Once he regained his senses, things would become difficult.

So, he had to be quick!

"What evidence do I need?" Ao Xingzhou, getting a hint, immediately said loudly, "This is the Two Realm River where he, Ao Sanqu, is the Water Dragon!"

"Even if he didn't do it, he can't escape responsibility!"

These words sounded completely unreasonable.

But you can't say that it's completely unreasonable either.

The Dragon King of the Two Realm River has the duty to guard the waters.

In the place he guards, such a thing happened where a person disappeared out of thin air, and moreover, it happened on the South Sea Dragon Palace's ship.

To investigate his responsibility and have him find the person back is completely reasonable.

Ao Sanqu couldn't find a reason to shirk responsibility.

"Eighth Brother, let's go back!" Ao Xingchi said, "Let Ao Sanqu find the person back for us!"

Ao Sanqu frowned tightly.

He didn't want to agree.

Nor could he agree.

Bai Chengyou was gone.

Most likely, it was the White Dragon clan who did it!

How could he find him?

If he couldn't find him, the South Sea would blame him, and he would inevitably be pushed out to take the blame.

But if he didn't agree…

"Let him find him? Isn't that the thief crying 'stop thief'? I can't trust him!" Ao Xingzhou's words saved him.

"Then what does the Eighth Prince want?" Ao Sanqu immediately asked, following his words.

"I want to find him myself!" Ao Xingzhou said, "Search the Two Realm River!"

"This!" Ao Sanqu frowned. The Two Realm River was his territory. If he let Ao Xingzhou search it, it wouldn't look good on his face, and this Eighth Prince would definitely smash some things without restraint.

But before he could think more, Ao Xingzhou had already sneered, "You want to stop me? You don't even dare to let me search, and you still say you didn't kidnap the person!"

"Very well, since the Eighth Prince has said so, how dare I stop you?" Ao Sanqu said, "Eighth Prince, just go ahead and search, and clear my name!"

"Good!" Ao Xingzhou roared.

He soared up and headed towards the surface of the Two Realm River.

He didn't forget to instruct Ao Xingchi, "Second Brother, you stay here and watch him! Don't let him cause me trouble!"
