Qǐfēi, a pomegranate spirit, had wished to cultivate to immortality for thousands of years. However, just as she was about to reach the final step, she was struck by lightning, losing all her cul...
This was the first time Shura had seen Qifei's true form. She was entirely white, and among the dragons, she was the most beautiful.
He soared into the air and touched the horns on Qi Fei's head.
After transforming into a dragon, Qifei's horns became much larger, and they didn't feel as soft and smooth as when she was a miniature dragon; they looked sharper.
Qifei raised her dragon eyes, her large eyes filled with curiosity.
So this is what it's like to become a dragon. After transforming into her true form, she felt much more comfortable in her dragon body.
Without delay, the group flew directly to the dragons' habitat.
The Dragon Realm seems quite different from what I remember.
In her memory, the land of dragons was filled with all kinds of dragons.
Dragons can be seen sunbathing on any beach.
But now there isn't a single dragon in the Dragon Lands, which looks quite desolate.
The other dragons also sensed something was wrong and desperately chased after the core of the dragon clan.
The place where the dragons usually held meetings now looked desolate. After the group transformed into human form, they looked at the empty place and almost burst into tears.
"Where have all the elders gone?" Li Nuo's face was grim; she didn't know what to do.
Qifei changed her clothes with Xiu Luo's help, her little face flushed.
She carefully examined the place where they often held meetings and could tell that the dragons had left in a hurry.
Many things are still left unresolved.
but……
Qi Fei frowned, walked to a long table, and reached out to touch the dust on the tabletop.
Logically speaking, they should have been expelled from the Dragon Realm several years ago.
Even if something happened to the dragon clan, it should have been a very long time ago, but this table is not even dusty.
Could it clean itself automatically? Qifei was a little unsure if such a spell existed.
"Who usually cleans this place?" Qi Fei asked Li Nuo.
She felt that Li Nuo probably knew more about this.
"Huh?" Li Nuo was a little confused, not knowing what Qi Fei meant by asking this, but he tilted his head and thought for a moment, his tone not too certain, "Maybe there are people who clean it."
He doesn't usually pay attention to this, and he really hasn't cared who does the cleaning.
Shura walked to Qifei's side, seemingly lost in thought. "You suspect that they're actually alright at all?"
“Yes.” Qifei nodded to Xiuluo. “Logically speaking, if they didn’t have time to clean up because of the time constraints, but this place is too clean.”
It was so clean, as if someone had used it frequently, and it had just been used.
Qifei and Xiuluo discussed the suspicious points they had discovered.
This was indeed strange, and the other little dragons also realized what was going on.
They had subconsciously ignored these things right under their noses before.
Yes, everything here is so clean, it looks like someone cleans it regularly.
Although they still looked like they had left in a hurry, they now felt that it wasn't quite the same.
Suspicion arose, and everyone realized what was going on.
After discussing it, the group dispersed to check other places.
It took quite a while before they were able to regroup.
The group's expressions were somewhat strange. After muttering to themselves for a while, they nodded and dispersed.
Qifei pulled Shura to the cave they had previously been in with the dragons.
She remembered that the original owner had piled up a lot of shiny things here, but left in a hurry, still inside the cave.
Using their memory, they found the cave and, sure enough, saw piles of beautiful gems.
Gems are actually worthless now, especially in this world of cultivation.
But it was undeniably beautiful; the sparkling gems made Qifei extremely happy.
"You like these things now?" Shura couldn't help but chuckle when he saw Qifei enthusiastically holding a pile of gems.
In the previous world, she didn't seem to like these things either.
He bought her many expensive gemstones, but she only expressed her happiness at the time and never wore them afterward.
"What woman doesn't like gemstones?" Qifei said nonchalantly, expressing her fondness for them.
Although it's worthless here, she just likes it.
"Did you find something just now?" Shura sat on Qifei's shiny bed, feeling a little uncomfortable.
This must have been what he slept when he was in dragon form, since it doesn't look like a bed, but more like he was sleeping on the floor.
However, dragons are naturally not as particular as humans.
I'm perfectly content to have a place to sleep in my baby's arms.
"Well, we suspected that the elders weren't in trouble, but rather wanted to kick us out and hide away."
They created the illusion of internal chaos so that we would all leave.
But why?
This is something Qifei can't understand: why would the elders do this?
"Does it mean they think we're lazy and unambitious?"
The younger dragons used to be very lazy; they looked exactly like the older dragons.
If this continues, what future will the dragon race have?
Are we all destined to become useless cowards who just eat their fill and wait to die?
Hearing Qifei say this, Shura roughly understood why the dragon elders were so disappointed in him.
If it were him, he would probably throw all these little things out too.
"You suspect they're still here, but knowing the barrier was broken, they hurriedly hid?"
This explains why the council chamber was found to be clean, while other areas showed signs of wear and tear.
"So what are you going to do next?" Since the dragons were alright, Shura didn't need to worry about anything else. Instead, he was concerned about Qifei. "Now that you're pregnant, don't run around. Just come back to Misty Peak with me and we'll talk about it after the baby is born."
Qifei smiled slyly, "That's why we need your cooperation at this time."
In fact, dragons have difficulty conceiving, which is why they have gradually disappeared from the continent.
Kihi's pregnancy was a breakthrough point.
She decided to use the fact that she and Shura were going to become Daoist partners to pressure the elders and see if they would still be indifferent and hide it after they found out she was pregnant.
Asura doesn't care at all; he's absolutely willing to cooperate.
Inside the council hall, a group of young dragons sat in their seats, mimicking the elders.
Li Nuo looked at Shura with a tense expression, "This person wants to become your Daoist partner without passing the test of our Dragon Clan. Dream on."
"There's nothing I can do about it, I like him." Qi Fei looked at Xiu Luo shyly and rested her head on his shoulder. "Most importantly, I'm pregnant."
"What? You're pregnant!" All the little dragons exclaimed in unison, staring at Qifei in disbelief.
They only mentioned before that they were going to become Daoist partners, but they didn't mention that she was pregnant. Is it true or false?
Li Nuo stared at Qi Fei in shock, "You're really pregnant?"
“Yes, it’s the real deal.” Qi Fei patted her belly with a smile. “My master said there are several inside.”
