The two of them quickly made their way to the courtyard where Xiao Bai's mother lived.
They walked at a brisk pace, creating a gust of wind.
Although he did not transform into a dragon, in this human form, he could still display 30% of his strength. In fact, Kang Shin-mu could display even more strength.
Of course, he suppressed it now and maintained the same speed as Xiao Bai.
Xiao Bai used some kind of dragon movement martial technique. Although she used it in her human form, it still increased her speed by several times.
As for Kang Shin-mu, he used Nimble Stance. The Divine Dragon Tyrant Body Art burst forth, allowing his speed to easily keep up with Xiao Bai.
The two of them soon arrived at an elegant courtyard. This courtyard was where her mother lived.
The location of this elegant courtyard was not considered remote, but the environment was very quiet and beautiful. There were also many servants serving inside. Xiao Bai's mother was also a dragon warrior, but her cultivation was not high. According to Xiao Bai, she was only at the Heavenly Dragon Realm.
When she met her father, Luo Hua Dragon Emperor, her mother was already at the Heavenly Dragon Realm. At that time, Luo Hua Dragon Emperor was only a young man. He was slightly talented, so he got together with her. Unfortunately, she was not Luo Hua Dragon Emperor's only woman.
After Luo Hua Dragon Emperor stepped into the Dragon Emperor Realm, he chose another woman as his wife. Therefore, Xiao Bai could only be an illegitimate daughter.
Kang Shin-mu and Xiao Bai came to the courtyard and heard some movement from afar.
This movement made Kang Shin-mu and Xiao Bai frown.
"Let's hide first."
Jiang Shenwu held onto Whitey with one hand and then used the concealment ability that the Ink Centipede Beast gained after fusing with it.
It was now evening, and the sun was setting in the west. Kang Shin-mu and his companion walked through the trees like ghosts. The Nightmare Ink Beast's camouflage ability caused all the light around them to be reflected, making them almost invisible to others.
At least in this Luo Hua Dragon Country, no one would be able to discover him, not even the Thoughtless Dragon Emperor.
One had to know that Thoughtless Dragon Emperor was only at the third level of Dragon Emperor, which was similar to Kang Shin-mu and Xiao Bai. However, in terms of true strength, Kang Shin-mu could definitely crush Thoughtless Dragon Emperor.
After all, Kang Shin-mu had even killed the sixth level of the Dragon Emperor, the Dragon Emperor Mentor!
Other than Tian Xun Dragon Emperor, Great Liang Dragon Emperor, and a few other Dragon Emperor leaders, Kang Shin-mu was not afraid of these secular Dragon Emperors.
Of course, it was impossible for Jiang Shenwu to come here to flaunt his prowess. He had his own firm goal. He needed more power to rescue his father. The Dragon Sealing Abyss contained an incomparable secret that even the Demon God Ancestor's consciousness was not completely clear about.
Therefore, Kang Shin-mu had to dig out the secret!
Outside the courtyard.
Kang Shin-mu and Xiao Bai hid and listened to the movements in the courtyard.
Among them, there were two servants talking. Their words were not very respectful to Xiao Bai's mother, Yu Shuhua. There were even some verbal attacks, mocking Yu Shuhua.
"This old woman is getting more and more disrespectful to our prince just because her daughter is in the Dragon Martial Academy!"
"That's right. No matter what, she is just a Heavenly Dragon. Compared to the prince, her status is too low. The prince invited her to participate in the tea party, but she dared not go. She deserves retribution!"
The chatter was not loud, but how could it escape Kang Shin-mu and Xiao Bai's ears?
"I feel that my mother is injured."
The hidden Xiao Bai's expression was a little ugly.
"What's going on?"
Kang Shin-mu frowned. "They are talking about the prince, and their words are too disrespectful to your mother. Have they always been like this?"
He had thought that Xiao Bai's mother might be living a good life, but now it seemed that the relationship between the royal family in Luohua City was very complicated.
"No."
Xiao Bai was very depressed. "In the past, every time I came back, it was during the New Year. Everyone welcomed me and treated my mother very well. My mother never said anything bad about them …"
The two did not think too much about it.
They continued to hide and went into the courtyard. They did not show themselves for the time being. They planned to find out more about the situation first.
In the past, every time Xiao Bai came back, it was during the New Year. The date was fixed, so it was very likely that someone was putting on a show for her.
But this time, because she was going to the Dragon Gods' Great World, she unexpectedly came back. She seemed to have discovered something extraordinary. Her mother seemed to be constantly being bullied.
That prince should be the direct descendant of the previous Luohua Dragon Emperor. He actually invited Xiao Bai's mother to participate in some tea party … This was undoubtedly too much. After all, Xiao Bai's mother was older than that prince. She was his elder!
They needed to know what had happened now.
Kang Shin-mu and Xiao Bai entered the courtyard without being discovered by anyone. Even without the Black Concealing Dragon Stone, the Centipede Ink Beast's concealment ability was really impressive. Even without the Black Concealing Dragon Stone, the Centipede Ink Beast's concealment ability alone could fool the senses of many people.
Even if the Thoughtless Dragon Emperor came, he would not be able to sense the presence of Kang Shin-mu and the others.
In the courtyard, the two of them saw the two women who were talking. Xiao Bai recognized the two women as her mother's maids. Now they were actually speaking ill of her mother.
As they walked, they chatted in private. Their voices were very low, but how could they hide it from Kang Shin-mu and Xiao Bai?
Soon, they received more information.
Now, Xiao Bai's mother was actually injured!
It was said that a jade artifact suddenly exploded. The jade artifact contained a relatively strong storm power, which caused her mother to be seriously injured. Now, she was recuperating. The Thoughtless Dragon Emperor also came to visit yesterday.
As for the jade artifact that suddenly exploded, it was a gift from Prince Qi Nan for Xiao Bai's mother's birthday this year. Now that the jade artifact had exploded, it was impossible to find out if there was any problem with it.
"The Lord Dragon Emperor was furious and punished Prince Qi Nan. But who doesn't know that it was just for show?"
"That's right. The Lord Dragon Emperor doesn't have any feelings for this old woman. She's not his mother."
The two maids slowly walked away. Then, their voices stopped. They had probably finished talking about this part.
When Kang Shin-mu and Xiao Bai heard these words, their expressions immediately turned ugly.
It seemed that Xiao Bai's mother wasn't doing well here!
And now, she was actually injured. The jade artifact that Prince Qi Nan gifted suddenly exploded. Who would believe that Prince Qi Nan wasn't up to something?
"I didn't have a good impression of this Prince Qi Nan before. I always felt that he was sinister and treacherous. Now, it seems that it was indeed so."
Xiao Bai's expression had already turned cold.
Kang Shin-mu's heart was also unsettled because he thought of his own mother. Could it be the same?
