Chapter 384 Taking the Lead
"What is that?"
Gu Lan looked puzzled at the faint golden light emitting from afar on the sea surface. They were on the shore of the East Sea, still thousands of miles away from the East Sea Dragon Palace. Although he could directly extend his spiritual senses to investigate, Gu Lan refrained from doing so out of caution.
"Come out!"
Gu Lan extended a qi hand and grabbed a passing chubby fish.
That chubby fish was a member of an Ocean Clan who had cultivated to the King Stage and was currently hurrying towards the East Sea Dragon Palace.
"What's the matter with that golden light in the sky above the East Sea?"
"You're in such a hurry, where are you heading?" Gu Lan asked.
Upon hearing Gu Lan's question, the chubby fish quickly transformed into a chubby humanoid shape and began to answer.
"That golden light is the Dragon Sovereign Order issued by the Dragon Sovereign."
"All Ocean Clans who see the Dragon Sovereign Order must go to the East Sea Dragon Palace for a meeting."
"At the same time, there's also a chance to obtain a great opportunity known as 'Ascending the Dragon's Gate'."
The chubby humanoid looked cautiously at Gu Lan, fearing that this formidable expert might do something to him. He had heard from his clan that the Human Clan cultivators on the shore of the East Sea particularly liked to eat their kind. If not eaten immediately, they would be pickled and saved for next year. It was truly cruel!
Thinking of his clan's miserable fate, the chubby humanoid trembled in fear.
"Dragon Sovereign Order... Ascending the Dragon's Gate..."
Gu Lan pondered for a moment, feeling that things were not as simple as they seemed.
He was well aware that at this moment, the Dragon Sovereign was still in the Immortal Desolation Cliff and couldn't possibly have appeared in the East Sea to issue the Dragon Sovereign Order.
"Can the Dragon Sovereign Order be issued by anyone other than the Dragon Sovereign?" Gu Lan continued to ask.
"Generally speaking, the Dragon Sovereign Order is always issued by the Dragon Sovereign."
"In special circumstances, it can also be issued by the direct descendants of the Dragon Sovereign."
"Now that the Dragon Sovereign is still in the mortal realm, which Ocean Clan would dare to issue the Dragon Sovereign Order? That would be tantamount to rebellion," the chubby humanoid answered earnestly. However, a hint of disdain appeared on his face at the end. In his view, the Dragon Sovereign Order must have been issued by the Dragon Sovereign himself.
Upon hearing this answer, Gu Lan furrowed his brow slightly.
He recalled the message sent to him by the Dragon Sovereign, stating that the former Deposed Royal Heir of the Dragon Clan was imprisoned in the Deep Sea Prison. That Deposed Royal Heir was a direct bloodline descendant of the Dragon Sovereign and could also issue the Dragon Sovereign Order.
If it was indeed the Deposed Royal Heir of the Dragon Clan, he must have been contaminated by evil creatures.
"It seems I need to take the lead."
Gu Lan instructed the Demon Clan masters aboard the celestial boat, then flew out of the boat and arrived beside the chubby humanoid.
"I am acquainted with the Dragon Sovereign. Lead the way ahead, and let's head to the East Sea Dragon Palace at full speed."

After speaking, Gu Lan gently patted the back of the chubby humanoid with his hand, and immediately, a series of formation patterns emerged.
Soon, he realized that there was no trace of his son here, not even a single soldier from the Flood Snake Clan.
"Your Highness, where did my son, the young master of the Flood Snake Clan, and our strategist go?"
The Chief of the Flood Snake Clan did not mince his words.
According to the plan, the Deposed Royal Heir of the Dragon Clan was just a puppet at this time, so there was no need to treat him with courtesy.
However, what the Deposed Royal Heir of the Dragon Clan said next instantly sobered him up.
"Are you talking about those Flood Snake Clan members? They are all inside my belly."
"Leaving that aside, Flood Snake Clan members taste quite good, not much worse than Dragon Clan."
Ao Thirteen said casually.
"You!"
"You killed my son! I..."
The Chief of the Flood Snake Clan was furious upon hearing this, but before he could finish his sentence, he was interrupted.
"Hush!"
"I hate talkative people the most."
"Now, I'll give you two choices."
Ao Thirteen's voice fell, and his aura suddenly surged.
Threads of black evil qi surged out from behind him, like a pair of enormous wings spreading open.
"First, avenge your son... which means I'll eat you."
"Second, become a slave to my clan. I'll grant you unimaginable power."
Neither of these choices was what the Chief of the Flood Snake Clan wanted.
Under Ao Thirteen's terrifying pressure, he couldn't muster any thoughts of resistance.
So, he chose to turn and flee!
Outside the East Sea Dragon Palace, there were still many Flood Snake Clan warriors he had brought with him. He believed that as long as he could escape, there was still hope.
"Thinking of running?"
"That's not a good choice."
Watching the Chief of the Flood Snake Clan fleeing like a stray dog, Ao Thirteen did not pursue him.
Because soon, the Chief of the Flood Snake Clan was brought back by a group of Flood Snake Clan warriors completely infected by Evil Infection.
"I gave you a chance."
Ao Thirteen stepped forward, looking coldly at the Chief of the Flood Snake Clan.
