Cangying paused, turned around, and faced Yanliu, her dark eyes gleaming with gold as she looked at her: "Thank you for your kindness, Your Highness Yan, but my injuries have healed and I do not need any further treatment."

With a sniff of her nose, Yan Liu could tell without even using her mental energy to sense that the hunter's injuries were quite severe.

He should be thankful that his knife cracked when he made the hunt, reducing his power by half; otherwise, even if he hadn't died, his hair wouldn't have turned half white, but completely white.

"You think 1 billion star coins is too expensive?" Yan Liu raised her voice, with a hint of doubt: "I can heal all your injuries and also raise your mental and physical strength levels. 1 billion is a good deal."

If it weren't for the fact that he was injured, but that he had status, position, and money, she wouldn't have greeted him or escorted him into the room.

All this work is for money, to make money honestly and legitimately. Otherwise, who would be so bored as to talk nonsense with this little dragon brat?

Cangying took a step back, widening the distance between herself and Yanliu. Seeing this, Yanliu felt insulted, as if she were being forced into a sale. She unhappily put her hands in her pockets and said, "Little dragon brat, what do you mean? Are you afraid that your older sister is forcing you into a sale?"

"1 billion star coins? You, the high priest of the deep-sea mermaid race, can't even come up with 1 billion star coins? If you can't, why don't you just take off the black and white pearls on your head and sell them?"

The black pearls of the deep-sea mermaid clan seem to be very valuable, worth tens of millions or even hundreds of millions, right? Countless black and white pearls are woven into his white hair, hanging down to his ankles. Just picking 10 or 8 of them would be enough for 1 billion.

The little dragon cub looks alright, not bad looking. Surely he wouldn't be so stingy?

"I can give you black and white pearls!" Cangying said, grabbing a handful of black pearls and handing them to Yanliu. "I'm not injured, I don't need your treatment!"

It's a fool not to make money when you can. A single pearl is worth tens of millions. If you exchange them all for Star Coins, you can support your family and build up the Earth. How wonderful would that be?

Yan Liu unceremoniously reached out to cup the black pearl in her hands: "You really don't need treatment?"

"Really, it's not necessary!" Cangying insisted, placing a handful of black pearls in her hand, then taking out a handful of white pearls and placing them in Yanliu's hand: "Thank you for your kindness, Your Highness!"

His hands are huge; one handful holds several pearls, two handfuls hold twelve pearls, each one bigger than an eyeball. Each pearl is worth tens of millions or hundreds of millions, and twelve pearls would be worth at least a billion.

He didn't even treat him, yet he generously pulled out 1 billion! This is an incredibly wealthy dragon cub! Impressive, very impressive!

Yanliu placed the pearl in her own space, raised her fiery red lips, and smiled beautifully: "You're welcome. You can contact me whenever you need anything. The price is the same, and it's available anytime!"

"Thank you, see you tomorrow!" Cangying said thank you, stepped back into the house, and gently closed the door.

Yan Liu raised her pretty eyebrows, her smile vanished, and she pouted, thinking that this dragon cub was very clever, but she didn't expect it to be such a little fool!

Look at the injuries on his body!

She just used her spiritual power to check, and it's very serious. Given time, her hair, which is half-white in the morning and half-white in the evening, will turn completely white!

To be a good person, or a dragon, you can't be stubborn and argumentative; otherwise, you'll only suffer.

However, what does it have to do with her? Anyway, she only cares about money, not dragons. If this dragon cub wants to bear the consequences himself, let him bear them. As long as it doesn't interfere with her eating and making money, that's fine.

Yanliu turned around and went back to her room, closed the door, kicked off her shoes, and pounced on the bed. One of her legs turned into a thin willow branch, which slithered like a snake from the bed to the window, down to the window, landed on the ground, took root in the ground, and burrowed into the soil.

As a tree, all her spiritual power, physical strength, and resilience come from the earth and her master. In addition, she is a sensible tree. With the nourishment and assistance of dragon blood, she does not need her master's blood. She works during the day and puts her roots into the ground at night. The next day, she is full of energy, spirits, and fighting spirit to make money.

"Why are you calling me so late, you idiot!" Bo Jichen switched the video call to a voice call, panting and impatiently yelling at Yan Liu, as if he was still unsatisfied.

Yan Liu lay sprawled out on the bed, completely unladylike, her personal terminal amplified, "I have 12 black and white pearls here, do you want them?"

"Is that all?" Bo Jichen's voice rose, his breathing quickened, "My goodness, can't we save this little thing for tomorrow?"

Yan Liu exclaimed, "That's a small matter, this is a big deal worth 1 billion. I've already checked, the black pearls from deep-sea mermaids are extremely valuable, several hundred million each, and the large white pearls are also valuable. I have 12 here, I'll sell them all to you for 1 billion, how about it?"

Panting, Bo Jichen bargained, "800 million, 800 million, I'll take it all!"

Yan Liu paused, then said, "900 million."

Bo Jichen, as stingy as a miser, declared: "850 million!"

Yanliu: "I won't sell it to you for 900 million, not a penny less."

Bo Jichen grunted, "Nine hundred million it is, goodbye!"

Yan Liu stared at the black screen of the personal terminal: "..."

What's going on?

The old dragon was groaning and panting heavily in the palace!

Who can make that old dragon groan and gasp for breath?

Is he perhaps lifting weights late at night?

Bo Jichen hung up the personal terminal, turned it off, and tossed it to the ground. His purple eyes flashed with a terrifying, predatory light. He hugged his darling, biting Lei Luosi's ear, and said in a hoarse voice, "Darling, you promised to let me eat my fill today, and you still played tricks on me..."

More than half an hour later, Quanjian had soaked in the water, taken a bath, and was wearing pajamas. He had just climbed from his own balcony onto the balcony next door when he was so frightened by his own high priest standing in front of the balcony that he almost fell off the third-floor balcony.

Cangying frowned slightly, staring straight at Quanjian, and said in a deep voice, "Quanjian, as the queen of the deep-sea mermaid clan, don't you think it's improper and lacking in manners to climb over the wall in the middle of the night?"

Quanjian jumped down from his balcony and stood in front of his high priest, grinning as he said, "This year is the 8219th year of the Chinese calendar. What's the point of talking about formalities and etiquette in front of our own people? Let's not talk about that. We need to keep up with the times and not play those empty games."

“Tradition is tradition, and faith is faith!” Cangying frowned more and more as he heard her words: “If you do not follow your own traditions and do not firmly believe in your own faith, everything left by your ancestors will be reduced to nothing and will be forgotten.”

“You South China Sea Merfolk are the most complete ancient race of China. Your calendar follows the Chinese calendar, not the interstellar calendar.”

"As a queen, climbing over walls and through windows in the middle of the night, and even entering a male's room, you are behaving very unbecomingly as a queen, Your Majesty!"

Quanjian: "..."

As someone who loves to have fun, isn't sneaking around, teasing dogs, and climbing through windows just basic stuff?

She didn't do anything heinous.

Moreover, as a queen, she is only having fun and indulging in her leisure time. On important occasions and in important places, she is still very proper and upright, leaving no room for any impropriety.

"Alright, alright, I was wrong, I was wrong! I promise I won't do it again. I'll definitely knock on your door if I need anything." As a pragmatic deep-sea queen, Quanjian knew when to be a dog and when to bark, and she absolutely couldn't offend the high priest. So she readily admitted her mistake, stubbornly refusing to repent, and forcibly changed the subject: "High priest, the main reason I came to see you so late is that I don't understand what kind of species Jiang Jiang is, nor do I understand what kind of species Yan Liu is."

"I don't understand why Hunter is with Jiang Jiang if he's a dragon, and why that cute little boy with Hunter is human?"

"And another thing, why do your scales pop up when you fight the Hunter, and also when you shake hands with Jiang Jiang? Could it be that your destined person is not the Hunter, but Jiang Jiang, who is already married and has a child?"
