Chapter 265 Dragon Island, Holy Grail, Northern Year, Snowdrift
Although Tulan said that Duntun Mountain was the closest main city to the Dragon's Nest, they still flew for more than 30 hours before they could see any trace of the Dragon's Nest.
Those were truly seven enormous skeletons, resembling seven vast, white mountain ranges. Before the body was gamified, it would have taken an ordinary person several days and nights to walk along the spine of any one of these skeletons.
Dragons of various colors and sizes were coiled around the skeleton, resting or fighting nearby.
Before Tu Lan and Yu Xunge even got close, two dragons, one blue and one white, flew over and appeared in front of Tu Lan almost in the blink of an eye.
Standing before the true dragons, Yu Xunge realized the difference between a large dragon and a young one. If Tu Lan's size was about the size of an airplane, then these two dragons were like two CBD international skyscrapers. Above the dragons' heads were two lines of small red text:
[Holy Grail Level 150 100% | 100%]
[Northern Year 150 Level 100%┃100%]
Tulan had already revealed the identities of the people involved: "Mother! Father!"
Blue Dragon Holy Grail, White Dragon Bei Sui, Yu Xunge cancels Animagus's transformation into human form. In front of such powerful beings, disguising herself as an animal is meaningless. Moreover, as Tulan's contractor, she needs to maintain good relations with the neutral dragon race.
The Holy Grail is indeed, as Tulan said, an extremely powerful and beautiful ice dragon.
The blue dragon scales shimmered like crystal or the surface of a shimmering lake under the sunlight. The deep blue sapphire on its forehead was so striking that just one glance made one feel dizzy. Its imposing aura made Yu Xunge almost unable to breathe. As soon as the other party approached, dozens of negative status effects instantly appeared on her.
Bai Longbei blew a breath at Yu Xunge, instantly restoring Yu Xunge's lost health. Not only were all negative status effects removed, but seven buff status effects were also added.
Bai Longbei was smaller than the Holy Grail, pure white, and had a gentle and holy temperament. His eyes were full of love when he looked at Yu Xunge and Tu Lan. What a wonderful female father.
Before Yu Xunge could even say "Hello, Uncle and Aunt," several more giant dragons flew over.
Leading the group was Elder Dragon, Snowdrift, whom Tu Lan often mentioned. He was a level 186 dragon, and despite having "snow" in his name, he was actually a red dragon. Then there were the black dragon, the purple dragon, the green dragon…
In a daze, Yu Xunge thought she had entered the Magic Fairy Castle or the world of Teletubbies...
She followed Tu Lan's lead and addressed each person individually, calling them either "Master" or "Senior."
Yu Xunge thought that these powerful beings would ignore her, a weakling, to some extent. To the dragons, whose levels were all around 150, she was no different from an ant. However, to her surprise, although the dragons were not particularly enthusiastic towards her, they would nod at her as a response when she greeted them.
Yu Xunge marked Tu Lan as a star, took off personally, and flew towards the dragon's nest alongside Tu Lan.
She thought to herself, "Your dragons are all so gentle, and Elder Long Xue Dui is not as strict as you say."
When she greeted the snowdrift earlier, it not only nodded but also replied with "Friendly little one."
Turan answered without any surprise, "Because we have an equal contract, and you also have my blessing upon you."
Ah, Yu Xunge then remembered the sentence written in the book: "If you want to gain the friendship of a dragon and the dragon race, it is best to sign an equal contract with the dragon you have your eye on." At the time, she had not really taken it to heart. She just felt pity for Tu Lan's ending in her previous life and did it on a whim. She really did not expect that she would come to Dragon Island one day.
Tulan added, "Besides, how could the dragon not know whether you're good or bad?"
Dragons' ability to sense others' emotions can be fatal to those with impure intentions, but if someone is sincere, this talent can be their greatest asset.
Yu Xunge always says that she is selfish, cold-hearted, and wants to tell everyone that she is a bad person and that they should not have any expectations of her. She is incapable of sacrificing herself for anyone or anything. But in Tu Lan's eyes, she is the most adorable human being, soft-hearted and sincere, strong and real.
It is precisely because of Yu Xunge's "stinginess" and caution in matters of the heart that her kindness towards Tu Lan appears so precious. Emotions, like props and curiosities, are valuable precisely because they are rare.
Although they had only known each other for a few months, Tu Lan knew that in Yu Xunge's heart, she was the most special person. She knew the most of Yu Xunge's secrets. If Yu Xunge had to choose the person she trusted the most at the moment, it would definitely be her.
Do you want to be a blade of grass in the Qingyuan Plain, or a flower in the desert?
Tulan thinks only a fool would choose the former.
There was something she had never told Yu Xunge—according to the rules of the Dragon Clan, she couldn't tell any race outside the Dragon Clan either—the Dragon Clan could indeed bestow blessings upon the parties to an equal contract, and the Dragon Clan would not retract any blessings they had given out. However, there were prerequisites for a Dragon Clan blessing to take effect.
That is, the contractor has no greed or malice towards the dragon he is contracting with, and treats it with sincerity every minute and every second, without any pretense. As for whether the contractor is righteous or evil, good or bad, the dragon doesn't care at all.
Dragons are born with the ability to sense emotions and lies; their feelings are always keen, so how could their blessings be unrelated to emotions?
Holy Grail, Northern Year, and Snowdrift must have noticed the blessing that was working on her, which is why they treated her so gently.
After bringing Yu Xunge home, Tu Lan took various gifts and went out. Yu Xunge originally wanted to go with her, since it would be impolite not to. However, Tu Lan said that she only needed to go with her to see the Holy Grail Bei Sui and Xue Dui. The other dragons didn't really like to socialize with races other than dragons. If she went, the dragons would feel uncomfortable. As long as the gifts arrived, that was fine.
Yu Xunge immediately sat down. "They're all fans of Dragon Island! Fans of Dragon Island are great, fans of Dragon Island are great! She's here on Dragon Island, and she loves Dragon Island too..."
Tu Lan told Yu Xunge to treat this place as her own home, to do as she pleased, and even granted her access to the treasure vault, saying that she could go in and wander around whenever she was bored. Then she grabbed the gifts and rushed out.
Tu Lan's laughter and the roars of other dragons could be heard from time to time outside. The direction of the laughter kept changing, and the once quiet dragon's nest suddenly became lively.
Yu Xunge looked around at Tu Lan's dragon nest. Although it was just a hollowed-out dragon tooth, the area here was much larger than her villa on Blue Star, almost comparable to a football field. It was just not as exquisite as the villa, but it was still divided into several rooms - bedroom, entertainment room, treasure vault, and bathroom.
The ground was also covered with floorboards made of dragon scales. Considering that these dragons built their nests directly from the remains of the Dragon Ancestor, she suspected that these dragon scales also came from the Dragon Ancestor.
These acts that humans see as blasphemy against their ancestors might be seen as a form of companionship and reverence by the dragon race.
Yu Xunge didn't go to the treasure vault without permission. She planned to calm down and think about how to inquire about the dominoes when she visited the Holy Grail Northern Snowdrift later... but she was destined to be unable to calm her mind.
As soon as I settled down, I heard Tu Lan's loud laughter from outside.
"Haha, next up is Supreme Star Glory! Esports Genius! The only true dragon on Earth! The number one pet on the leaderboard! The contracted dragon of Earth's strongest player—TuTuTuTuTu~Lan~!!!"
Yu Xunge closed his eyes in pain and buried his face in his palms.
