Chapter 335: Chapter 169: Deification: Minjiang Dragon King_3

Suddenly, the waves surged mightily, and a black carp, as colossal as a small island, slowly emerged from the surface of the water, with the head of a dragon and the body of a fish, its scales dark as night.

Minjiang old lady, leaning on her walking stick, stood atop the head of the Black Carp Dragon and said, "What instructions do you have for me, Scholar?"

Chen Shi raised his hand, and the West King Jade Seal floated up, his voice solemn as he said, "Minjiang old lady, today I appoint you as the Minjiang Dragon King to manage the twelve hundred miles of Minjiang’s waters. All creatures within these waters are under your command. On both banks of the Minjiang, let there be no floods, let the dikes stand firm, let the fish and shrimp be plentiful, and may the people live and work in peace and contentment!"

The West King Jade Seal emitted a radiant light, casting the geographic map of Gongzhou, and as the image of the twelve hundred miles of Minjiang geography appeared, the seal stamped down upon a dragon scale located at the back of the Black Carp Dragon’s head.

With the conferment of the decree, the Minjiang old lady was startled, and instantly the entire expanse of the Minjiang territory flashed through her mind, every waterway and creature within this great river clear before her eyes!

Furthermore, she could now control every movement of the water demons and monsters in the waters!

She was both shocked and overjoyed. For a long time, she had been merely an Evil Spirit in the Minjiang waters, though worshipped as a godmother by the villagers, yet still shrieked at and pursued by others.

Moreover, she was not the only Evil Spirit in Minjiang; there were other demons as well, with immense strength.

But now that Chen Shi had appointed her the Minjiang Dragon King, she felt her breath intertwined with the Minjiang, with its waters at her command, and she feared no other demons as rivals!

The Minjiang old lady hastily set down her walking stick and bowed deeply atop the dragon’s head, saying, "I thank the benevolent ruler for the honor!"

Chen Shi said, "Rise. Bring something to eat, quickly!"

"Your will is my command!"

The Minjiang old lady stood up, pondering how to gather some fish when suddenly she connected with the fish in the Minjiang.

She was slightly taken aback: "The ruler is truly formidable! I have really become a Dragon King!"

Red Mountain Lady, Li Tianqing, and Black Pot caught up and saw fish suddenly leaping from the Minjiang towards the shore with splashing sounds!

Everyone was both surprised and delighted, and they hurried to catch the fish.

Moments later, they carried big fish back to the village, started a fire, and began to cook.

Soon, they were all round-bellied and sprawled out, lying on their backs.

Red Mountain Lady turned over, lay across Chen Shi’s belly, looked at him with sparkling eyes, and said, "Scholar, how did you appoint the old lady? Can you appoint me too?"

Chen Shi tried to move, but was unable to get up, his voice feeble as he said, "Yes. What position do you want?"

Red Mountain Lady was about to speak when Black Pot suddenly perked up his ears and quietly tapped Chen Shi with his paw.

Outside the village, a gargantuan head of the Tianlao Society floated in the air, sniffed the breeze vigorously, and exclaimed, "There’s the smell of fish! There are living people here! And food too!"

Chen Shi was startled and quickly got to his feet, "People from the Tianlao Society! Hide quickly!"

The voice of Wu Daozheng, the Hall Master of the Tianlao Society, was heard, "Mr. Fei, Lord Yan, they have food!"

Footsteps approached rapidly.

Wu Daozheng, leading six or seven Tianlao Society instructors and Incense Masters, barged into the courtyard where Chen Shi and the others were residing, searching around; they found no one, only the bowls, dishes, and fishbones left behind by Chen Shi and his group.

"It’s still warm! They haven’t gone far!"

Wu Daozheng shouted, "Search quickly!"

The group immediately scattered to look around.

The giant head of the Heavenly Elder soared into the sky and called out, "I smell the fishy scent of the Minjiang old lady!"

Gongzhou City officials such as Governor Fei Tianzheng and General Xia Chuli walked in. Hall Master Wu Daozheng of the Tianlao Society quickly swept the tableware aside, smiling obsequiously, "Please take a seat, esteemed officials."

A snail shell was also brushed aside, rolling several turns.

Inside the snail shell, Chen Shi and the others tumbled and rolled until they finally steadied themselves. ƒreewebɳovel.com

Chen Shi gestured for silence and listened carefully to the noises outside.

Having just seen that there was no time to escape, he cast a spell on the snail shell, imbuing it with the immature Taotie Devouring Heaven Technique, and gathered everyone along with the wooden cart into the shell, hiding inside himself.
