Chapter 41 Youth has no price, and people melt in their mouths
Fortunately, before Chi Li could take Jiang Jiu away, Long Xuan, who had just returned, bumped into the two of them.
"Put the wine down!"
The dragon territory has been thriving recently. Even the number of newly hatched dragon eggs in the Longyuan Pool is several times more than usual. As the dragon master, he naturally needs to take better care of the newborn cubs.
During this period, he did not stay in the Xianyu Pavilion, but returned to the dragon clan territory.
In addition, the ancestors in the Nine Heavens were very satisfied with Long Xuan, and his reputation in the Dragon Clan was rising. Of course, except for one thing...
That is, the Dragon Queen that all the dragons have been longing for has not been brought back yet. The elders have urged Long Xuan many times, both openly and secretly, about this matter.
He had just returned to Xianyu Pavilion when he saw Chi Li holding someone and about to take him away, and he became anxious for a moment.
“!”
Jiang Jiu, who was originally planning to cosplay as a quail, immediately raised her head and looked in the direction of the voice when she heard Long Xuan's voice. This was her savior. If Chi Li really let her take her away, she might be eaten up.
"Little dragon."
Chi Li didn't have that much ill will towards Long Xuan, but compared to his thousands of years, including the time he had spent in the eggshell, Long Xuan's age was no more than a hundred years, and in his eyes, he was indeed no different from a little dragon cub.
"You are the little dragon!"
Long Xuan's ears were very good and he heard Chi Li's voice immediately. His two peach blossom eyes were wide open and he looked very angry.
He is an adult dragon after all, how can he be called a little dragon cub?
"Jiujiu and I are of similar age, so we are a good match. It's you, the old fox, who wants to eat young grass."
Long Xuan didn't learn anything good in the illusion, and what he learned were things that were hard to describe in words. He neither stepped forward to stop Chi Li's steps nor spoke in a confident tone.
"?"
Jiang Jiu's expression went blank for a moment. What had irritated Long Xuan to the point of calling Chi Li an old cow eating young grass? Was he really going to die?!
"oh?"
Sure enough, upon hearing this, Chi Li's expression turned cold in an instant. His fox eyes were half-closed and his aura rose. Even the air around him became thick and heavy, making it impossible to breathe.
"What else? The first generation of Supreme God in the Ninth Heaven, if not an old fox, what is he?"
Long Xuan could feel the pressure being exerted on him, but as the Dragon Lord he could not lose, so he continued to speak with his neck stiff.
"stop!"
After all, Jiang Jiu didn't want Long Xuan to get into trouble for no apparent reason in the future, so he immediately interrupted the conversation between the two.
"You are all young, no one is older than the other, so don't quarrel."
In fact, what Jiang Jiu said was correct. The time it takes for the Nine-tailed Heavenly Fox to reach adulthood is actually shorter. It’s just that Chi Li had already reached adulthood when he was still an ordinary fox, and only now does he look like an adult man.
Because Long Xuan was lost in the Longyuan Pool, he looked smaller even when he was an adult, like a teenager. Although he looked like an adult after passing the Dragon Lord Trial, his temperament was still a little immature compared to Chi Li.
"Little thing, if you think I'm old..."
Chi Li looked down at the person in his arms with an unpredictable tone. No one knew what evil intentions he was hiding under his fox skin. Jiang Jiu didn't want to listen and quickly interrupted him.
"No! I never have!"
Don't say she's a coward, this is clearly what she's doing.
"Wine!"
Long Xuan was still unwilling to give in and was still planning to say something, but Jiang Jiu immediately glared at him, and Long Xuan could only shut up in grievance.
Just when the atmosphere between the three of them finally calmed down, Chi Li's expression suddenly changed, and he had to put down the cake that was in his mouth.
“…”
Jiang Jiu was stunned for a moment when she landed on the ground. She didn't expect Chi Li to let her go.
"Little thing, we'll settle it next time."
After Chi Li finished speaking, he flew out of the window of the room in Xianyu Pavilion without even going through the main door.
"?"
Jiang Jiu and Long Xuan were left looking at each other.
But soon Long Xuan became happy. It was a great thing to be able to drive away the fox.
"Don't worry about him for now, Jiujiu, I brought you some delicious food!"
Long Xuan approached Jiang Jiu as if he was offering a treasure, and happily took out a... dragon egg from his ring?
"?"
Jiang Jiu was about to take the hand but squatted on the spot with a frozen expression on his face.
Youth has no price, and it melts in the mouth?
"You said this is food?"
Jiang Jiu raised his head and met Long Xuan's excited expression, and couldn't help but confirm it again.
Long Xuan looked down and his smile froze on the spot. He didn't know whether to take back the dragon egg or give it away.
"?"
Seeing his expression, Jiang Jiu knew that Long Xuan must have made a mistake and guessed whose child he had brought out.
After a while, Long Xuan showed a mournful expression, and his tone was filled with despair.
"It's over! I brought out the grandson of the ancestor as a golden pastry!"
Long Xuan's words almost made Jiang Jiu stumble and fall to death. As expected, this unlucky kid was still as unreliable as ever even after becoming the Dragon Lord.
It turns out that it's the same in the game. Long Xuan always does some ridiculous things, except... when he's being a little auspicious, Jiang Jiu treats him like a younger brother.
Who would dare to believe that a dragon’s greatest pleasure is catching fish? Long Xuan was even hunted for this.
Of course, no one could afford to offend the Dragon Prince, and in the end, nothing was done.
"Does this dragon egg look like the golden pastry you mentioned?"
Jiang Jiu held his forehead and asked as calmly as possible.
“No.”
Long Xuan shook his head like a rattle.
"Then how did you bring him out?"
Jiang Jiu continued to ask.
"Because the ancestor asked me to play with this little guy, I put it next to the golden pastry. I didn't expect to take the dragon egg out before leaving."
Long Xuan's tone was bitter, and it didn't sound like he meant it on purpose.
As he finished speaking, the dragon egg in Long Xuan's hand suddenly shook, then jumped twice, and then jumped to the ground with a big leap.
The dragon egg jumped high, and just a few seconds before it landed, Long Xuan slid and caught the dragon egg in his hand.
“!”
“!”
It all happened so fast that Jiang Jiu didn't have time to react. He felt like his heart was about to jump out of his throat. Fortunately, Long Xuan caught the dragon egg.
Long Xuan also breathed a sigh of relief, and stood up carefully with his butt sticking out, for fear that Longdan would suddenly jump out again.
Then....
As the two watched, the dragon egg cracked with a "crack".
“!”
“!”
Before Long Xuan could get up, his body stopped in mid-air, with his waist twisted into a strange arc, but neither Jiang Jiu nor Long Xuan cared about this.
Because the dragon egg was broken!
Still outside the Longyuan Pool, this dragon egg is the ancestor's grandson. With multiple buffs superimposed on each other, Long Xuan feels that he may not be able to continue to be the Dragon Lord.
