[Qinglong? Shouldn't it be like Da Mei? How did it become a person?] Fang Ruotang didn't listen to Xiao Jingzi's words and take any action. Instead, she stood still and looked at Qinglong slowly walking towards her with a curious expression.

He was not fast, and his movements were elegant, just like a well-mannered young nobleman from a prominent family.

But in the blink of an eye, He was standing in front of her.

"Are you alone, fellow Daoist?"

"right!"

Fang Ruotang didn't know what Qinglong was going to do, but looking at his face up close, she found him even more handsome. His appearance was so striking that it was breathtaking. Apart from Gu Yanjin and the other six, this was the first time she had seen a man who was no less handsome than them.

His slender phoenix eyes were deep and mysterious, and his nose was high and straight. His features were exquisitely matched and captivating.

"Fellow Daoist, how about we form a team and travel together in the secret realm?" Azure Dragon got straight to the point, revealing his intention.

Fang Ruotang's gaze remained on Qinglong's face. She thought that if Qinglong was so handsome in his human form, then wouldn't her own Da Mei also be an unparalleled beauty in the world?

Just as I was thinking of asking Little Mirror how to make Da Mei transform quickly, I heard her speak out in a fit of anger.

"Smelly……"

With just one word, Fang Ruotang swiftly pinched her mouth shut.

"Stinky?" Azure Dragon raised an eyebrow at the Blazing Phoenix in front of him.

Emotions are a two-way street, especially for ancient divine beasts like them. The Blazing Phoenix doesn't like the Azure Dragon, and the Azure Dragon looks down on the Blazing Phoenix even more.

The two sides simply couldn't stand each other.

It was just an outspoken display; his beady eyes looked like those of a man who had killed his father and mother—one reserved, but his eyes were full of mockery.

[Shut up, if you dare reveal His identity, I'll deal with you.] Fang Ruotang relayed the message to Da Mei.

Da Mei suddenly felt wronged and stopped glaring fiercely at Qinglong. She turned her head and looked at Fang Ruotang with a pitiful expression.

Fang Ruotang's subordinate grabbed Da Mei's pointed lips again, as if to signal her.

Don't forget why I ventured into this secret realm; don't ruin my plans.

If you were to arrive at a cemetery filled with countless treasures, who would know better than a tomb keeper where the best items are hidden?

If Qinglong wants to travel with her, then so be it!

Anyway, she won't lose out.

Moreover, there was clearly no danger. If there were, given Xiao Jingzi's cowardly nature, she would have already urged her to run away instead of encouraging her to go up and get to know people.

"Sure, my name is Fang Ruotang, and I am the sect leader of Tianyi Sect. And you are?"

"My name is Fan."

"Fan, it sounds beautiful! Just hearing this name, you can tell that the owner is a very elegant person."

Fang Ruotang's response made Qinglong's lips curl into a slight smile.

Xiao Mei became even angrier. Although she said no, she frantically sent telepathic messages to Fang Ruotang in her mind.

【Master, don't believe him. He probably just thinks you smell nice and wants to be your pet. Don't fall for it!】

Fang Ruotang raised an eyebrow. What a wonderful thing!

Just imagine, when she goes out in the future, she'll be adorned with a dragon on her left and a phoenix on her right. Who can outshine her on the street? She'll definitely be the most dazzling person on the street.

Fang Ruotang couldn't help but laugh just thinking about it.

I wonder if the Azure Dragon's true form is good-looking or imposing?

It should look good, right?

After all, he has a tall and slender figure, so his physical body should be quite impressive as well.

Don't ruin my plans, or I'll pluck all your feathers.

Fang Ruotang didn't know what Qinglong wanted to do when he came up to her, but after Da Mei said it, she accepted it. When she looked at Qinglong again, she looked at him as if he were her own successful little pet, and her eyes softened.

Qinglong was puzzled, but that didn't stop him from being delighted.

Will it be so easy for me to stay by her side this time?

The two thought processes were in sync, and they hit it off immediately.

"Do you know anything about this secret realm?" Fang Ruotang asked, tilting her head. Fan, who was walking beside her, was also there.

Fan was very honest. He said, "I know a little about this place. It's an ancient tomb, and the tomb's occupant is someone I want to follow... she..."

After Fan finished speaking, he paused and looked at Fang Ruotang.

Fang Ruotang's big eyes were full of clarity as she looked at the person who was only halfway through speaking, puzzled, and asked anxiously, "Continue! The person you follow, and then what?"

"And then, she came?"

"You're here?"

Fang Ruotang frowned and pondered for a while, muttering to herself with some unease.

[He has an owner? And this means his owner is coming back to life? Can I still keep him as a pet?]

【Ahhhhh!】 Little Mirror suddenly started screaming incoherently, as if she had gone mad.

Fang Ruotang rubbed her forehead in confusion, her face looking unpleasant.

You're disturbing me.

"Sect Master Fang, what's wrong? Are you feeling unwell? I have a Mind-Concentrating Fruit here. Eat it; it will make you feel better."

Fang Ruotang looked at the fruit in front of her, which was glowing and looked delicious, and immediately took it with a greedy bite.

"Mmm, it's so delicious!"

Fan looked at Fang Ruotang, the deep look in his eyes slowly turning into a smile.

"If you like it, that's fine. I have more here."

Wow, you're so kind.

After Fang Ruotang finished eating one, she reached out to take the second one from Fan's hand.

The way he looked at Fan was the same as how he looked at his own family.

A dragon that feeds her upon meeting her can't be a bad dragon; it must be a good dragon.

That's enough.

Since he was so kind to her and gave her fruit, she didn't insist, after all, he was already a dragon with an owner.

Fan had no idea that his ingratiating behavior had aroused such thoughts in Fang Ruotang; otherwise, he would definitely have reached into her mouth and taken the fruit out.

Instead of what we have now, where we picked out several different kinds of beautiful fruits that are so pretty they make your mouth water.

"Sir, please don't eat it. It's no good."

【……how? 】

Fang Ruotang held the fruit, munching on it while glancing at Fan.

Generous and good-looking.

It doesn't look bad at all.

Fang Ruotang chewed.

Never mind, it doesn't matter if it's bad, the fruit is not at fault.

At worst, she can wait until she finishes eating before confronting him, or she can go easy on him when she hits him later and not hit his face.

Do you know who the person he's talking about in the tomb is?

Who is it? Could it be someone I know?

It's you! It's you! The person he's talking about in the tomb is you!

Fang Ruotang: ...

This fruit suddenly became a bit dry.

Imagine her swaggering in with a group of people to rob someone's cemetery, only to be told that the grave is hers. She would feel like a clown.

[I led a group to dig up my own grave?]

No, I'm still alive!

Fang Ruotang was completely flustered and bewildered.

Fan stared nervously at Fang Ruotang.

"What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell? The spiritual energy in this fruit is too strong. If you're not feeling well, you shouldn't eat it yet."
