As the gold chain melted, the sealing runes on the palace walls gradually disappeared.
An unprecedented surprise and excitement burst forth in Qinglong's lantern-like eyes.
When the last golden chain melted and the restraints were lifted, its body instantly returned to its original form. With a stomp of its dragon claw, it soared straight into the sky.
The ground trembled, the palace collapsed, and rubble rained down.
Lu Qing shouted immediately:
"Uncle Long, wait a minute, my friend and I haven't gone out yet!"
Upon hearing the sound, the Azure Dragon immediately flew back, flicking its tail to toss Lu Qing onto its back.
"Little toy, where's your friend?"
"It should be... there! That spot!" Lu Qing hurriedly pointed out the direction.
When the Azure Dragon flew over, the cave ceiling had already collapsed, but Wang Yanjun and Zhang Shichang were completely unharmed.
Upon closer inspection, Lu Qing discovered that a protective barrier formed by yin energy was shielding the two of them, and the rubble did not harm them in the slightest.
But the ground was about to collapse, and Lu Qing hurriedly said:
"Uncle Long, hurry!"
With a flick of its tail, the Azure Dragon swept the two onto its back before soaring into the clouds.
The roar of the dragon resounded through the sky.
Suddenly, a pink dragon flew down from the clouds and landed in front of the Azure Dragon, transforming into a pink-haired girl.
Lu Qing recognized her; she was Yan Cai, the Rain Goddess and the Dragon King's daughter.
As Yan Cai looked at Qinglong, tears instantly welled up in her eyes:
"Father, you...you've finally returned!"
"Yancai, my daughter!"
The Azure Dragon cried again, and the rain poured down from the sky like water being poured, almost flooding the entire mountain.
Lu Qing sat on the dragon's back and looked down, and saw many people braving the heavy rain to row inflatable boats to rescue people. Among them was a person he recognized.
Upon closer inspection, she realized it was Gu Xicheng.
Lu Qing panicked. If the rain continued, everyone down below would die.
"Rain Goddess, Uncle Dragon, calm down, stop crying! If you keep crying, a lot of people will die!"
Upon hearing Lu Qing's voice, the Rain God immediately stopped crying:
"Little Qing, how come you're with my father?"
The Dragon King was astonished: "Yan Cai, do you recognize this little toy?"
Yan Cai glared at him, then flew to Lu Qing and hugged her, saying:
"What little toy! This is my god-sister Lu Qing, I love her so much!"
"ah!"
The Dragon King was shocked for a moment, then felt a little guilty when he thought about how he had just played with Lu Qing like a toy.
Lu Qing was also somewhat surprised:
"Sister Yancai, Uncle Long is your father!"
“Yes! Little Qing, you still haven’t told me how you ended up with my father?” Yan Cai asked hurriedly.
Lu Qing raised an eyebrow smugly:
"Sister Yancai, I just saved Uncle Long!"
"Uncle Long is trapped down there by bad guys, I...&%￥￥#@&"
Lu Qing rattled off a detailed account of what had just happened.
When the Dragon King mentioned that Qinglong treated her like a toy, making her roll around, he waved his hands repeatedly and tried to signal to Lu Qing, but Lu Qing didn't see it and looked aggrieved.
"Sister Yancai, let me tell you, I almost got killed by Uncle Long!"
"I asked him a question, but he wouldn't answer. I gave him some snacks, and only then did he talk!"
"If it weren't for my naturally poor fate, Uncle Long might have eaten me like a mochi!"
Hearing this, Yan Cai finally couldn't hold back anymore and exploded:
"He treats you like a toy and even steals your snacks? ___*( ￣皿￣)\/#____"
Lu Qing: "Yes, yes, yes! Look, I still have this injury on my arm!"
The Dragon King broke out in a cold sweat, silently pleading, "Stop talking, stop talking, please!"
His youngest daughter has always had a fiery temper; she's a real troublemaker in the Dragon Palace, and even her father sometimes gets a beating from her.
With Lu Qing complaining like that, it's no wonder he got beaten up!
Just then, Yan Cai's voice, filled with gritted teeth, rang in my ears:
"Father, is what Little Qing said true?"
The Dragon King, sweating profusely, chuckled sheepishly and replied:
"Probably, about, maybe, possibly... yes... I guess..."
"You old bastard, you're asking for it! How dare you lay a hand on my sister!"
Yan Cai instantly transformed into her original form, flicked her dragon tail, and slapped the Dragon King across the face with a large pouch.
Lu Qing, who was sitting on its back watching the show, was suddenly thrown off, and the unconscious Wang Yanjun and Zhang Shichang were not spared either.
"Sister Yancai, help me!"
Lu Qing shouted, and Yan Cai hurriedly flew over and rolled the three of them onto her back.
"You old bastard, you just wait. I'll settle the score with you after I get Little Qing to a safe place!"
After saying that, Yan Cai found a spot that hadn't been flooded yet and put Lu Qing and the other two down there.
Goodbye, Little Qing!
"Goodbye, Sister Yancai!" Lu Qing waved goodbye.
Above the clouds, a small pink dragon was grabbing the old green dragon by the tail and beating it mercilessly.
Lu Qing looked up for a while until they were out of sight.
By then, the rain had stopped.
The dark clouds dispersed, and the sun shone down, making people feel warm and comfortable.
Lu Qing's phone got wet and is no longer usable, but fortunately Zhang Shichang's is still working.
She dialed Gu Xicheng's phone number, and the call rang for a while before being answered.
Gu Xicheng's voice came from the other end of the phone:
"Hello?"
Upon hearing his voice, Lu Qing suddenly felt a lump in her throat, and tears welled up in her eyes.
"Hello? Lu Qing... is that... is that you?"
Gu Xicheng's voice trembled slightly. He never answered calls from strangers, but at this moment, he did.
I just hope this call is from Lu Qing.
The silence on the other end of the phone gradually extinguished the hope in his eyes. Just as he was about to hang up, Lu Qing's voice came through:
"Gu Xicheng, I...I'm on the mountain, sob sob sob..."
Lu Qing couldn't help but cry.
Although she is now safe, once she relaxes, her tear ducts become completely uncontrollable.
The unfamiliar panic upon entering the cave, the helplessness when her older brother was unconscious, and the fear of facing the Azure Dragon that could crush her at any moment all erupted the moment she heard Gu Xicheng's voice.
Across from him, Gu Xicheng smiled:
"Lu Qing, where are you? Look around for any landmarks, I'm coming to find you right now!"
Lu Qing looked around while crying:
"I am on a very high mountain, surrounded by water and trees, but nothing else."
At this moment, Wang Yanjun, who had just regained consciousness, handed the signal flare he was carrying to Lu Qing:
"Light it."
Lu Qing quickly took it and used the talisman to create a small cluster of flames to light it.
With a whoosh, the signal flare exploded in the air.
Gu Xicheng quickly located their position and paddled the kayak over at top speed.
Half an hour later, Gu Xicheng finally saw Lu Qing.
When Lu Qing saw Gu Xicheng, she cried even harder, but she fainted while crying.
When she woke up, she was already in the hospital.
Grandma Gu and Nan Qian were both watching over her.
