Chapter 400 Wait and see what happens
Jiao Yuan ran wildly until he was completely far away from the sea near the land before he stopped.
At this moment, his spiritual energy was almost completely depleted, and his face was extremely pale.
"Damn it, who are those people? How can they be so powerful?"
Jiao Yuan found a place to recover his spiritual power. Thinking about what had just happened, he felt a wave of fear.
If I hadn't run fast, I would have died there.
Although he survived, all his men died there, and most importantly, it was unclear whether Jiao Bin was alive or dead.
This made Jiao Yuan's face extremely ugly. They had only just arrived in the eastern sea area and had already suffered such a heavy blow, which completely eliminated his chance to compete for the position of Palace Master of Jiaolong Palace.
The person who killed Jiao Tuan was too powerful; they were simply not someone they could deal with.

At this moment, a spatial rift appeared in front of Jiao Yuan, and Jiao Yuan immediately became vigilant.
"Big brother!"
A weak voice came from behind.
Then, Jiao Bin staggered out of the spatial rift.
"Third brother!"
Jiao Yuan's expression changed, and he quickly stepped forward to support Jiao Bin.
"How did you end up like this?"
Jiao Yuan asked anxiously.
Jiao Bin glared at Jiao Yuan with annoyance.
You have the nerve to say that? When you encountered danger, you just ran away without even looking back. If he hadn't had a trump card to save his life, he probably would have died there.
The situation isn't much better now. In his attempt to escape, he burned his life essence and soul, causing irreversible damage to his foundation. If he doesn't have rare and precious materials specifically for repairing his soul, he'll probably be crippled for life.
Noticing Jiao Bin's gaze, Jiao Yuan felt embarrassed. He had been so focused on escaping that he had forgotten about Jiao Bin's existence.
But he doesn't regret it, because Jiao Bin is still alive and well now!
"Brother, we are no match for those people. We must report the situation here to Father and ask him to send stronger warriors..."
Fortunately, Jiao Bin did not blame Jiao Yuan. At this moment, Jiao Bin touched his chest and said with a pained expression.
"Yes! Let's recover our spiritual energy here first. Once we've recovered, we'll return to the Dragon Palace and report this to our father..."
Jiao Yuan nodded and said.
Afterwards, the two of them rested for a while to recover their spiritual energy, and then immediately headed towards the Flood Dragon Palace.

On a small island.
Jiao Jiao and Jiao Shuang also arrived here with their people. However, unlike Jiao Yuan and Jiao Bin, they did not directly enter the sea to search for the murderer who killed Jiao Chuan. Instead, they settled down on an island first.
"Seventh Sister, our spies have gathered sufficient information and are almost certain that Jiao Chuan died at the hands of a land-dwelling creature. Moreover, this land-dwelling force is very powerful; with our current strength, we are probably no match for them..."
Jiao Shuang came to Jiao Jiao's side and said with a solemn expression.
"What is the name of this land-based power? Which race does it belong to?"
Jiao Jiao asked.
"It seems to be called something like the Great Qin Dynasty, an imperial dynasty of the human race..."
Jiao Shuang answered truthfully.
"The power of the human race?"
Jiao Jiao was slightly taken aback, then said, "Are you sure it's a human force?"
Seeing her older sister's expression, Jiao Shuang was somewhat puzzled, but still said, "That's right, it's the human race's power..."
Upon receiving Jiao Shuang's reply, Jiao Jiao frowned slightly: "I've also learned about the human race. Rumor has it they were very powerful in ancient times, but have declined now. Moreover, most of their power is concentrated in the central region of the continent; the humans in other areas are pitifully weak..."
"The continent adjacent to our sea area is called Xuanxing Domain. This domain is not very powerful. How could a human force possibly have the ability to attack our sea area?"
Jiao Jiao was completely baffled, but Jiao Shuang was absolutely certain that the race was human, which left her somewhat confused.
"Sister, what should we do now?"
Jiao Shuang inquired.
"Let's wait and see! This Qin state is not simple. Let's see how others act first, and if there are no problems, then we'll make our move..."
Jiao Jiao said in a deep voice.
"it is good!"
Jiao Shuang nodded and said.
"By the way, pass down the order: refrain from any activity in the sea area for the time being, to avoid attracting the attention of the Great Qin..."
Just as Jiao Shuang was about to leave, Jiao Jiao's voice came again.
Jiao Shuang nodded, and then went to relay Jiao Jiao's orders.

Daqin, Xianyang.
Ying Chen listened to the report from the people below and nodded slightly. During this period, as the Qin Dynasty expanded its sea areas, a steady stream of resources were transported to Xianyang.
Although most of the resources are not of high quality, they are plentiful!
The Qin Dynasty's treasury was already overflowing.
Moreover, after seeing how much resources Qin had acquired during this time, Miaoyun no longer opposed Qin's actions in the sea.
If she had known she could obtain so many resources, why would she have stopped it? Although she might face retaliation from the sea creatures afterward, danger often comes with opportunity.
Her previous conversation with Ying Chen made her realize that her understanding of the Qin Dynasty was far from sufficient.
Therefore, during this period, she temporarily left Xianyang and wandered around various parts of the Qin Dynasty.
I hope to gain a deeper understanding of the Qin Dynasty through this method.
Ying Chen naturally had no objection to this. Only when she truly understood the Great Qin would she truly stand on the side of the Great Qin.
