Hey!Long Jun, please wait a moment

"Then if it were me, would you stop me or lock me up?" Xiao You couldn't help asking.

Ao Yi said firmly: "Of course you will, you are all my good brothers!"

Xiao You slowly exerted strength on the hand holding the railing until the knuckles turned white, and said softly, "Well, we are good brothers."

"Rong Ge talked about you with me a few days ago, and he complained that he hadn't seen you for a long time." Ao Yi mentioned again with a smile.

"Really?" Xiao You's hands became more and more forceful, "It's true that I haven't seen him for a long time, why didn't he follow you today?" Since they both became adults, Xiao You returned to the tribe to become the patriarch after avenging his revenge. In the sea, there are not many encounters.

"Oh, his mother's relatives came with the East China Sea Mission. Rong Ge entertained at home, so he didn't come to patrol the sea." Ao Yi bent his fingers, tapped the railing lightly, and hummed a pleasant tune.

Xiao You nodded, then fell silent, turning to look at Ao Yi from time to time.

"Hey, Xiao You, has that Bulu introduced you to females recently?" Ao Yi had enough of wandering back and forth on the terrace, and asked again on a whim.

"..." Xiao You suddenly had a headache, and with slight disgust in his eyes, he said helplessly, "I don't want to find a partner at all right now. It's useless for Bruce and the others to say anything!"

"Tsk tsk, patriarch Xiao, are you picky?" Ao Yi teased, "I met Bruce while patrolling the sea a while ago, and he asked me to help persuade you to get married as soon as possible."

"What?" Xiao You turned his head suddenly, and the expression on his face changed drastically: at first, he was angry and annoyed, then he was aggrieved and irritable, and finally he was guilty and restless.

"Don't listen to him, it's my private business to find a partner to start a family with. I really don't like any female in the tribe!" Xiao You stressed his tone nervously, observing Ao Yi's expression carefully.

"Hmm... That Bulu... well, I think, although he helped you avenge you and become the patriarch, but..." Ao Yi chose his words carefully, rambling about vaguely, but in the end he couldn't say anything, so he could only comfort him : "Let me just say it casually. Finding a partner and starting a family is a great joy. You don't have to quarrel with Bruce—don't deny it. If it wasn't for the seriousness of the situation, Bruce would not come to me. Wait for me."

Xiao You gritted his teeth and looked up at the sky.

"Let's have a good chat. We've been through all the troubles before. The patriarch must have warriors to follow and support, and it's dangerous to get stuck." Ao Yi elbowed Xiao You, "Just say that there is no suitable female yet, what's the trouble? "Ao Yi is very puzzled. In his mind, Xiao You is extremely mature, wise, calm and courageous. How could he get into a stalemate with Bruce, the eagle warrior who helped him a lot?

Why is it not difficult?It is simply impossible to reach the sky.

"It's okay, I just argued with him for a few words." Xiao You said lightly, "Bru is too busy, I am busy from morning to night every day, if I rush to start a family, I may neglect my partner in the cold, that's not good .”

"That's right, you have such a good reason for saying that, Bruce will definitely understand!" Ao Yi clapped her hands in agreement.

They chatted for a long time, and they had no choice but to part when the guardian dragon of the Sicilian Sea finished patrolling the sea and passed below calling for the prince to go back together.

"Then it's settled. Three days later, I'll be waiting for you at the holy lake. Don't forget!" Ao Yi reminded.

Xiao You nodded solemnly, thinking that you were waiting for me, how could I forget?

"Don't worry, it's impossible to forget, remember to say hello to Uncle Ji for me."

"Okay, see you then, I'll go back first." Ao Yi finally waved his hand and slid down the rattan in front of the tree house. When he was a few meters above the sea, he let go and rolled flexibly in mid-air with a "plop" Jump into the sea.

"Be careful!" Even though Xiao You had seen it countless times with his own eyes, he was still taken aback. He tried his best to look down, and shouted disapprovingly, "What prestige are you showing off?"

A moment later, Ao Yi emerged from the sea, wiped his wet face, laughed loudly, and said indifferently:

"I'm the Sea Clan, can I still be drowned? Go back, see you at the Holy Lake!"

"Okay." Xiao You stood in front of the tree house and once again watched Ao Yi leave.When he used to live on the island, Ji Mo was still in good health, and he often took Ao Yirongge to play on the island. When the sun set, they were going back to the Dragon Palace under the Sea, and Xiao You watched them leave silently as before.

——He always wants to go home, but I can only watch him off forever.

Xiao You stood with the wind blowing for a long time, until it was almost dark, before closing the doors and windows of the tree house and leaving.In order to hide the tree house where he met and chatted with Ao Yi, Xiao You specially walked a long distance in the dense forest until he was sure that he was far enough away before turning into an eagle, spreading his wings to the sky, and quickly left the coast. Fly towards the ancient wood forest in the depths of the western continent—the Raptor Tribe is composed of rows of tree houses built in the ancient wood forest.

Riding on the air current, hovering slowly in the sky, looking down at Sicily below, Xiao You was familiar with controlling the wings, soaring freely. He closed his eyes, and remembered that when he was young, his family was ruined overnight, and he was hiding alone in the coastal bushes. , could not find food, was dizzy with hunger, and was discovered by the dragons of the Sicilian Sea:

Ji Mo asked with a friendly smile, "Are you from the Raptor tribe? Are you lost?"

At that time, Ao Yi was still a Platinum Dragon who had just learned to speak. He asked, "Why don't you go home?"

"I don't have a home anymore, can I go back to your home?" Xiao You, who was still a young eagle, cried and begged.

Just like that, Xiao You went from the land to the island, avoided his enemies, and grew up smoothly.

With a surge of heart and mixed feelings, Xiao You slowly flew back to the tribe. Just as he folded his wings and stood up in the small square, he bumped into the tribe warrior Bruu head-on.

"Patriarch, where have you been? I'll look for you all afternoon."

"Flying around along the Gumu River, patrolling the guard posts along the way." Xiao You said as he walked, and asked gently: "What's wrong? Is there anything urgent?"

Bruce is old, but his eyes are still sharp. He directly pierced: "But after I went to inspect the Gumu River, I saw you fly to the seaside with my own eyes."

Xiao You stopped, stared at Bruce, and didn't speak.

"You are the patriarch now, how can you travel alone? What if you encounter danger?" Bruce said what he had to say without flinching.

"You're right. I've entrusted you with it. I'll pay more attention next time." Xiao You was very grateful and respectful to the warrior in front of him, and accepted his opinion with kindness.

But what Bruce wanted to say most was this sentence: "Patriarch, you really should find a partner to start a family. That is the prince of the Sicilian Sea Dragon Clan. How could you—"

"Shut up!" Xiao You's face changed suddenly, and he immediately stopped in a low voice, while looking around quickly.

Bruce was very anxious. He was the loyal subordinate of the old patriarch Xiao. After the old patriarch was framed and killed, he hurried back to the tribe when he was out on business. On the road, and painstakingly supported him to become the patriarch—now that seeing the young eagle uncontrollably falling towards the abyss, Bruce really couldn't stand by and watch.

"Bru, I, Xiao You, are very, very grateful to you. Other matters can be discussed. Apart from finding a partner to start a family, I have already made my words clear enough. Please don't interfere with my private affairs too much."

Xiao You tried his best to control his emotions, expressed his attitude word by word, and left like the wind.

"Ah~!" The rest of Bruce stood where he was, beating his chest and stamping his feet, and sighed.

*****

Leaving the Sicilian Sea tomorrow.

According to the original plan, Ao Yi will lead his powerful bodyguards to swim to the holy lake first, and after meeting with the Eagles of the Raptor tribe, they will go to Crocodile Valley together.

Before going to bed, Ao Yi went to bid farewell to his parents and listened respectfully to their teachings.

"Although Xiao You is trustworthy, his foundation is not stable. The Ying people have always held prejudices against the Sea Clan. You must be mentally prepared and be careful in everything." Ao Bai solemnly instructed.As a father, he certainly does not agree with the eldest son to take risks; but as the Dragon King, he must teach Ao Yi to be a strong enough successor, otherwise the future of the Sicilian Sea Dragon Clan is in jeopardy.

Ji Mo was extremely reluctant, but he knew better: If Yi'er couldn't establish his own meritorious record and couldn't stand alone, how would he convince the public?

In the orc world, strength is the most respected, especially in Sicily.

"I understand." Ao Yi is very clear-headed, he knows what his parents are worried about, "I will treat Xiao You as the patriarch of the raptor tribe during the trip to Crocodile Valley."

Ji Mo nodded approvingly, and said with relief: "That's right! Xiao You didn't take you in the name of a private person. It was a cooperation agreement between the Raptor Tribe and our Sicilian Sea Dragon Clan. Business and personal relationships must be distinguished."

Ao Bai said again worriedly: "The dense forest is densely covered with rivers and lakes, and the underground rivers are crisscrossed. When there is an emergency, you must dare to abandon it and protect your own safety first, understand?"

"Also, Kang'er is coming of age, that's a big deal, but it's a pity that I can't leave now, you can help me deliver the prepared coming-of-age gift to Kang'er, and tell them, after the sea-land transaction is over, I will take Ruarui there A trip to the holy lake."

Ao Bai Ji Mo loves his son ardently, and he took turns exhorting and reminding him. Ao Yi was patient and agreed one by one. It was not until late at night that Ji Mo had no choice but to stop and personally sent the eldest son back to his room to rest.

*****

after a while

Ao Yi poked his head carefully and glanced outside. The house was quiet, so he tiptoed out of the house.

"Eldest Prince, what is this—?" The guard dragon patrolling at night immediately stepped forward to ask.

"Shh~ I'll go to the underground palace to help you." Ao Yi whispered.

The guard dragon nodded and dispersed.

The underground palace is heavily guarded and extremely strong, and it is specially used for detention.

Cough cough, yes, because of Rong Ge's strong request to go to Crocodile Valley together, Rong Tuo was angry and afraid that his sea deer cub would sneak away, so he really locked him in the underground palace.

——Rong Ge must be furious!

Ao Yi was worried and swam fast.

The underground palace is located in the northwest corner of the Dragon Palace, a little far away. Ao Yi swam over in one breath, greeted the guard dragon outside, and swam into the deep, dark and cold underground palace where the water seemed to be still.

The underground palace was also designed by Ji Mo, which is similar to the earth prison/room.

Ao Yi swam to the room where Rong Ge was locked up, held on to the iron stone pillars, looked in through the gap between the iron stone pillars, and whispered:

"Rong Ge? I'll come to see you—ah—uh..."
