Creed of the heavens

Compared with these male guards, the decoration on the female Di people in front of her is more gorgeous.

There are many exquisite ornaments made of shellfish and pearls on her body, and a set of translucent gauze on her upper body. It seems that she has a high status in the Diren Kingdom.

"Master Wu Zhu."

Seeing this person, the soldiers hastily withdrew their weapons and saluted respectfully.

The woman of the Di tribe called Wu Zhu held up the moon-white shell in her hand and ordered: "The queen has an order not to be rude to the distinguished guests. I will lead the distinguished guests into the palace to meet the queen."

The surface of the shell in Wu Zhu's hand was engraved with a pattern that Lu Xiao didn't recognize, and it might be an ancient character handed down from the time of Emperor Yan Shennong.

"This is as ordered."

Although somewhat reluctant, the Di human guards withdrew their weapons and let them go after the Queen's order came before them.

After the guards were dismissed, the young Wu Zhu bowed politely to Lu Xiao and the others: "Distinguished guests invited by Kunyu, please follow me. The queen of our family is waiting for you in the palace."

The attitude of the Di people suddenly turned 180 degrees, and the three teenagers were a little confused.

Lu Xiao and Yongzhen had a rough guess about this, and it should be that the cry of the giant whale had conveyed some kind of message to the Di people.

Following the witch Zhu along the avenue built on the coral reef, Lu Xiao touched her chin thoughtfully.

Kun Yu, sure enough, this giant whale has Kun's blood flowing through it.

The scenery and style of the Diren Kingdom are quite different from those of other countries on the land of China. The three boys and girls were discussing something in a low voice all the way.

Yongzhen didn't relax his vigilance completely, after all, this is not the home field of human beings, and he couldn't be sure that the other party's face would be torn apart suddenly because of the Kongtong Seal.

In case the negotiation between the two parties fails, recording the route and environment in advance will help in the subsequent evacuation.

The royal palace of the Diren Kingdom was carved from a huge shellfish. When entering the only city in the Diren Kingdom, Lu Xiao and the others immediately saw the Shell Palace located at the far end of the city.

Along the way, a group of people discovered a special situation.

There seems to be no old people in the Di people, and every resident looks so young and beautiful, handsome and pretty.

Yu'er and others who didn't know the truth were very surprised by this. They had never seen a country with such a young age structure before.

As recorded in the Shan Hai Jing, all the Di people have the body of a mermaid.

From the point of view above the waist, there is not much difference between the Di humans and ordinary humans, except that their ears have obvious aquatic biological characteristics, which look more like fins.

The lower body is completely different from that of humans. The Di humans have no legs and can only walk by swinging their fish tails. When moving, they have to twist their waists and swing their hips. The walking posture looks quite coquettish.

If outsiders come here, they might cheer excitedly on the spot.

Lu Xiao is not so serious about his taste, he is more concerned about whether he can persuade the Queen of the Di Human Race to give up immortality temporarily, and borrow Kongtong Yinwai to arrange the Lost Formation.

The interior of the palace of the Di people looks unique, but the overall idea is not much different from that of human palaces, and the main design concept is also resplendent.

A majestic woman holding a golden scepter sat on the throne at the end of the palace hall. The ministers were lined up in two rows, one on the left and one on the right. Everyone was staring closely at the outsider who had just been ushered into the gate of the palace.

There are guarding, hostility, kindness and curiosity in these eyes. Everyone seems to have different views on the arrival of Lu Xiao and others.

Wu Zhu saluted the Queen respectfully: "Your Majesty, I have brought the honored guests."

"Well, thank you for your hard work, Wu Zhu."

The queen's appearance is among the best among the Di people that Lu Xiao and others have seen. She has blue eyes and exotic appearance.

In Lu Xiao's words, this queen looks more like a West Asian race in terms of appearance.

Standing up from the throne with a thick fishtail to support her body, the Queen of the Di Human Race looked at the five aliens in the audience with complicated eyes.

"I am the queen who rules the Diren Kingdom, and I am a distinguished guest who has come from afar. I already know the reason for your visit."

The Di people and Kunyu lived together for many years. After long research, they finally obtained a way to communicate with Kunyu, and Wu Zhu, a special profession of full-time sacrifice and communication, came into being.

Through Wu Zhu's translation, the queen already knew the reason why Lu Xiao and others wanted to take away the Kongtong seal.

Self-sacrifice for others is easy to say, but when it is your turn, it is not so simple to execute.

Moreover, as the queen of a clan, one needs to consider not only personal gains and losses.

Once the Kongtong seal is removed, all the Di people will instantly lose the ability to remain youthful and return to the appearance they should have at their age.

The queen said with flickering eyes: "Unfortunately, the Di people lost the Kongtong seal many years ago, and we were even driven out of our hometown where we have lived for thousands of years."

Under the half-truth and half-false explanation of the queen of the Di tribe, Lu Xiao and others got a general understanding of the details about the Kongtong seal.

Originally, the Di people did not live in Kunyu's body, but lived freely on the bottom of the sea.

The special body structure allows them to breathe in water and resist the huge water pressure of the seabed. Few powerful aquatic organisms can survive on the seabed thousands of meters deep, and the Di people have almost no natural enemies.

But all that changed more than 200 years ago.

A dragon that came from nowhere suddenly landed in the East China Sea, arbitrarily taking Nuoda's waters as its own territory.

In order to defend their homeland, the Di people fought a protracted war with the shrimp soldiers and crab generals under the command of the Black Dragon King.

The queen didn't mention the specific situation of the battle, but as a result, the Di people lost the war and were driven out of their homeland by the Black Dragon King.

Under the leadership of the queen, the Di people could only temporarily live in the body of Kunyu who had been with them for many years, and wandered in the nearby seas after leaving their homes, waiting for the right time to regain their hometown.

However, the greed of the Black Dragon King did not disappear with the retreat of the Di people.

The youthful beauty of the whole Di people made the Black Dragon King suspicious. Through research on the old royal palace of the Di people, he discovered the function of the ancient artifact Kongtong Yin.

The enchantment of Kongtong Seal was arranged by a powerful sword fairy 700 years ago. The Black Dragon King who wanted to live forever could not rewrite the barrier rules of Kongtong Seal.

So he used his crooked brain to increase his lifespan and strength by devouring the people of the Di Human Race.

Kunyu's body is indeed safe, but the Di people must go out to fish every day in order to survive, and the Di people who are responsible for collecting food are often attacked by the Black Dragon King, which makes the Di people miserable.

"The Di people are not people who don't understand the righteousness. As the saying goes, if there is no skin, the hair will not be attached."

"Once the land of Shenzhou is invaded by the western demons, even the Di people who live on the seabed may not be immune."

The Queen of the Di Human Race looked around, as if she was planning something.

"Kunyu has already told me your intentions. As long as all the distinguished guests agree to two conditions, I am willing to borrow the Kongtong seal on behalf of the Di people."

Lu Xiao had roughly guessed the queen's request, but in order to keep the conversation going smoothly, he deliberately pretended to be ignorant and asked, "Dare to ask the queen, what is your condition?"

"First."

The queen raised her first finger: "The Kongtong seal is stored in the hometown of our clan, and now it is occupied by the cruel and ruthless Black Dragon King."
