Long Qianling's voice was indifferent, not understanding why he was so excited. His body was so weak that even if he cultivated, he could only live for a few hundred more years.
"Dragon bloodline..." Zhiyan raised his hand in disbelief, staring intently at his palm.
So his cultivation level hasn't been high all these years, not because his bloodline is impure, but because no dragon clan member helped him open his meridians. Now he can continue cultivating and will be able to protect his child in the future.
Thinking of this, Zhiyan burst into tears of joy, for he had heard what had happened in the courtyard before.
Those children were also illegitimate sons, but they bullied him because of his low cultivation level, and thought themselves superior to him.
It's all his fault for being so useless, causing his child to suffer.
Long Qianling didn't understand why he was crying again, and she became even more impatient.
In the past, her father often cried because her mother was too busy with official duties to return to the Dragon Palace to be with him. When she was still in the egg, she had to listen to her father's sobs every day, so she couldn't stand seeing people cry.
That's why, when Bai Qingnian attacked her, she didn't actually intend to kill him; instead, she fainted from anger.
Long Qianling didn't want to see him cry anymore, so she directly withdrew from Bai Qingnian's body and returned to his sea of consciousness.
With a thud, Bai Qingnian collapsed limply to the ground, startling Zhiyan, who was still crying.
Zhiyan is much better now and can get out of bed. He quickly got out of bed to help Bai Qingnian on the ground. He knew that Long Qianling had left his son's body.
Bai Qingnian, who was carefully observing the great black dragon in Long Qianling's sea of consciousness, was suddenly pulled back by a familiar force.
"Year after year..."
Upon hearing his father's voice, Bai Qingnian opened his eyes and discovered that his father had actually gotten out of bed.
"Father, your... health..."
“It was the Great Black Dragon, wasn’t it? She cured your illness, wasn’t she?” Bai Qingnian’s beautiful fox eyes were filled with excitement as she reached out and grabbed her father’s arm.
Zhiyan pursed his lips and nodded. He knew that Long Qianling had suddenly taken control of Niannian's body in order to hide his identity.
But when he thought of Long Qianling's angry expression just now, he was really worried about what his Nian Nian had done to anger her. After thinking it over again and again, he decided to ask Nian Nian.
"Niannian...have you offended someone recently, or gone somewhere?"
Bai Qingnian's body stiffened, and the hand gripping his arm began to tremble.
Does that woman count? Thinking of that murderous look in her eyes, Bai Qingnian felt a chill run down his spine.
"Father, I..."
"Niannian, have you learned to hide things from your father now?"
Zhiyan looked at him with his head down and deliberately spoke in a stern voice.
“Father…” Bai Qingnian’s eyes reddened, and he bit his lip tightly, not daring to speak anymore.
Zhiyan reached out and gently rubbed his head, her voice softening: "Silly Niannian, what happened that you don't dare tell your father? You used to tell your father everything. This only makes your father more worried."
Bai Qingnian felt extremely wronged upon hearing this, and threw herself into Zhiyan's arms, bursting into tears. After he had finished crying, she replied, still sobbing:
“My half-brothers took me to the Abyss of Evil and forced me to eat the Love Potion. I… I gave myself to a woman…”
The woman... could it be the one he's thinking of?
Zhiyan dared not let her imagination run wild, and quickly followed up by asking, "What kind of woman is she?"
"Black clothes, golden eyes," Bai Qingnian blurted out.
Zhiyan's body stiffened abruptly. It really was Long Qianling. No wonder she was so angry; it turned out that Nian Nian had taken advantage of her.
“Father…” Bai Qingnian looked at him with teary eyes.
Zhiyan swallowed hard, trembling with fear, and said, "Niannian...do you know who that black dragon you saw was?"
Bai Qingnian shook his head, not understanding why his father had brought up the Great Black Dragon.
Zhiyan pursed her lips and said in a trembling voice, "That black dragon is actually that woman!"
Bai Qingnian's eyes widened, his body gradually turning cold, as if he had fallen into an abyss, unable to believe what his father had said.
The big black dragon is that woman!
The abyss of evil, ten iron chains, golden eyes.
Yes, they were both chained with ten iron chains, and their eyes were both golden. Why didn't he connect them together?
Before Zhiyan could say anything more, a cold, piercing female voice echoed in his mind.
"If you say another word, I won't hesitate to kill him right now!"
Zhiyan immediately shut his mouth, hugged Bai Qingnian tightly, and his eyes instantly reddened.
Holding Bai Qingnian, whose body was trembling in his arms, he felt as if his heart was being torn apart. Why did his child have such a miserable life?
Being out of favor is bad enough, but now they've even provoked that cruel and ruthless dragon.
The voice in his mind rang out again: "I have opened your meridians. While my true form is still unable to leave the Abyss of Evil, you must protect him. His life belongs to me!"
After speaking, the black dragon in Bai Qingnian's sea of consciousness closed its eyes with satisfaction.
Zhiyan couldn't help but shed tears, her heart filled with immense sorrow.
Hearing her father's suppressed sobs, Bai Qingnian looked up, her fox-like eyes, already red from crying, gazing at him with heartache. She gently wiped away his tears, her voice choked with emotion:
"Father, don't cry, everything will be alright every year."
It's all his own fault. He shouldn't have made his father worry about him. His father is in poor health. If the Great Black Dragon comes to take revenge on him in the future, he will bear it all alone.
...
Abyss of Evil.
An eerie black aura permeated the air, turning the entire Abyss of Evil into a blood-red hue, even the sky itself was blood-red.
A red figure stood at the entrance, her beautiful eyes filled with melancholy.
He really wanted to go in and see her, but he didn't dare.
He was afraid that she would despise him because of his identity.
"Your Highness, it's time to go back," a demon servant whispered a reminder from the side.
Bai Shaoheng slowly turned around and left the Abyss of Ten Thousand Evils with the slave demon.
Never mind, he can go in and see her next time he comes.
Deep within the abyss of evil, Long Qianling opened her eyes. She smelled that familiar yet repulsive scent, and her whole body began to rage. She began to struggle desperately, but the ten iron chains held her firmly in place.
His demonic power spread out, causing all the creatures in the Abyss of Evil to tremble in fear.
A dragon's roar resounded through the sky. Bai Shaoheng's body stiffened, and he quickly stopped and turned to look in the direction of the Abyss of Evil.
Black scales gradually climbed onto Long Qianling's cheeks, and a pair of dragon horns appeared on her forehead. Her golden eyes were filled with murderous intent.
The seal beneath her feet instantly shone brightly, pressing her firmly to the ground. Long Qianling coughed up blood, the scales on her cheeks faded, and her dragon horns disappeared.
She looked up at the mouth of the abyss and gave a mocking smile.
Old fox, one day I will tear you to pieces and avenge my dragon clan!
